  • U.S.-Canada Trade Relations: Navigating Tariffs and the USMCA Review
    2025/10/21
    Host Mike Miranda sits down with Aaron Goertzen, Senior Economist at BMO, to examine the escalating challenges facing the U.S.-Canada trading relationship amid rising tariffs and the upcoming USMCA review. They explore three potential scenarios ranging from a muddle-through outcome with moderate growth impacts to a continental divide that could trigger recession in Canada. Aaron identifies the industries and regions most exposed to trade disruptions, including Canadian manufacturing sectors that derive nearly half their revenue from U.S. sales, and U.S. border states heavily dependent on Canadian trade. Despite these risks, the conversation highlights how the USMCA review presents an opportunity to strengthen bilateral ties through reduced trade barriers, improved labor mobility, and long-term certainty that would benefit both economies.

  • Stagflation: Risk or Reality?
    2025/08/12
    Host Mike Miranda sits down with Doug Porter, Chief Economist at BMO, to examine whether stagflation, the dangerous combination of high inflation and stagnant growth that plagued the 1970s, could be making a comeback.
