The negotiating table collapsed after three chaotic days, and Canada is now facing 50% tariffs from its largest trading partner. On this episode of Inside Politics, Winnipeg Sun columnist and former Manitoba cabinet minister Kevin Klein sits down with fellow columnist Royce Koop, a University of Manitoba political science professor and Conservative Party candidate, to sort fact from spin.

In this episode:

Why Klein supports Mark Carney walking away from the table, but strongly opposes retaliatory tariffs The 90,000 jobs already projected to disappear, and why that's just the start What really happened in the 72 hours before the deal fell apart Premier Wab Kinew's comments, Doug Ford's silence, and Howard Lutnick's surprise entrance into the talks Conflicting accounts from Ottawa and Washington, and why Klein is calling for Parliament to be recalled The Gordie Howe Bridge comparison, and questions about the federal government's transparency What Canada can control right now: pipelines, mineral development, the carbon tax, and tax reform

Two Winnipeg political voices, one honest conversation about what this trade war really means for Canadians.
