⚔️ The rise of AI-driven warfare and autonomous weapons

The problem, Lang argues, is not a lack of ideas or strategy.
It’s the institutions responsible for delivering results.
Together, Brian and Eugene examine the growing gap between ambitious political agendas — particularly under Prime Minister Mark Carney — and the federal government’s ability to implement meaningful change.
The discussion explores three major structural barriers inside Ottawa:

• A deeply embedded culture of risk aversion
• Canada’s long-standing dependence on the United States
• And an institutional discomfort with industrial policy and economic strategy

Even when leadership wants to move quickly, the system itself often resists change.
The conversation also turns to Canada’s increasingly fragile relationship with the United States. Brian and Eugene discuss the risks of over-reliance on American trade, why diversification has remained more rhetoric than reality, and whether current geopolitical tensions signal a permanent shift in the relationship.
Finally, they explore whether meaningful reform is possible.
Can Canada modernize its institutions to compete in a rapidly changing world?
Potential solutions include reducing bureaucratic layers, bringing more private-sector experience into government, and fundamentally rethinking how public institutions approach risk, decision-making, and execution.
Because strategy without delivery is not leadership.
And in a world moving faster than ever — economically, technologically, and geopolitically — countries that cannot execute may struggle to compete at all.

As AI-powered threats become more sophisticated, organizations face new vulnerabilities that go far beyond traditional IT concerns. From phishing scams and voice impersonation to the growing risks around weak authentication systems, the conversation highlights why cybersecurity has become a core business and leadership issue.
Brian and Daniel discuss:

• The rise of AI-driven cyber attacks
• Why human behaviour remains the greatest security vulnerability
• Why SMS authentication is increasingly unsafe
• And why boards and executives must now treat cybersecurity as a strategic priority

This is no longer a future problem.

It’s happening now — and every organization is exposed.

In his closing commentary, Brian turns to a deeper and more philosophical question: how artificial intelligence may be transforming not only work and economics, but human relationships themselves.

Drawing on recent conversations with Daniel Zborovski, John Ruffolo, and Eugene Lang — as well as a provocative New York Times discussion about AI and inequality — Brian examines how AI is concentrating power, outpacing institutions, and reshaping society faster than governments and leaders can respond.

But beyond economics lies a more personal concern

What happens when machines begin simulating empathy, attention, and understanding?

But it cannot truly care, sacrifice, commit, or love.

And in a world increasingly mediated by technology, that distinction may become one of the defining questions of our time.

In Part One, Brian is joined by veteran pollster John Wright for an in-depth conversation about the national mood and the forces shaping Canadian public opinion.
The data tells a fascinating story:
Two-thirds of Canadians remain worried about inflation, interest rates, and the rising cost of living — concerns that have persisted since 2022. Yet despite that economic unease, Prime Minister Mark Carney continues to post strong approval ratings.
Brian and John examine:

• Why economic anxiety remains elevated despite political stability
• The growing disconnect between household pressures and national optimism
• Regional differences across the country, including Alberta’s pessimism and Quebec’s relative confidence
• Public support for pipelines, LNG, and energy infrastructure
• And how Canadians are responding to growing global instability, including tensions around the Strait of Hormuz

The discussion also explores Canada’s evolving place in the world. Following Carney’s Davos speech, many Canadians increasingly see the country as a constructive middle power helping shape global events rather than simply reacting to them.

But rising expectations bring new pressure. 

Can political confidence survive if economic results fail to materialize?

The conversation explores how this conflict has evolved beyond military combat into a broader war of economics, energy, and endurance — with profound consequences for the West and the global balance of power.
In Part Two, Brian turns the focus to Canada and asks a difficult question: why does a country with immense energy resources still struggle to build infrastructure, secure market access, and execute coherent policy? The issue, he argues, is not a lack of energy — it’s a lack of national capacity and execution.

On this episode of The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian is joined by Rick Anderson—political strategist and one of Canada’s most insightful commentators—for a wide-ranging conversation on geopolitics, energy, and Canada’s evolving role as a middle power.
In Part 1, the discussion begins with global conflict and economic reality, focusing on tensions involving Iran and their ripple effects. From inflation risks to energy disruptions, Rick outlines why the situation is serious—but stops short of predicting a global collapse. North America, he argues, may prove more resilient than expected.
Part 2 turns to energy, where Canada’s strategic advantage comes into focus. As a major producer of oil, gas, and key resources like potash, Canada stands out as a stable and democratic supplier in a volatile world. In times of crisis, capacity matters—and Canada has it.
In Part 3, the conversation explores Canada’s evolving global strategy under Prime Minister Mark Carney. The focus: diversifying trade, strengthening ties with Europe and other middle powers, and reducing overreliance on the United States—not replacing it, but building greater independence through broader alignment.
Part 4 examines defense, trade, and the shifting global order. From NATO dynamics to military procurement and new opportunities in manufacturing—including electric vehicles—the world is rebalancing, and Canada is adapting in real time.
Finally, in Part 5, the conversation turns inward to address Western alienation and national unity. Longstanding tensions over energy policy, infrastructure, and regional fairness are discussed alongside signs of progress through renewed economic focus and engagement.

In Part 1, Kotler reflects on the evolution of marketing—from the classic 4Ps (product, price, place, promotion) to a broader, more human framework centered on People, Purpose, and Planet. As consumers grow more informed and skeptical, branding, pricing, and values are playing an increasingly central role in decision-making.
In Part 2, the conversation turns to AI and its growing influence on consumer behavior. As people rely less on traditional advertising and more on AI-driven insights, marketers face a new reality—one that demands a balance between technological efficiency and human creativity.
But this discussion goes far beyond business.
In Part 3, Kotler explores the state of capitalism itself, raising critical questions about inequality, wealth concentration, and the limits of GDP as a measure of success. He introduces the idea of an “index of the common good” and points to Nordic models as examples of more balanced, humane economic systems.
Finally, in Part 4, the focus shifts to democracy—its current challenges, declining civic engagement, and the growing disconnect between institutions and citizens. Because ultimately, economic systems and political systems are deeply intertwined—and both are under strain.

In this deeply personal Friday episode, I’m joined by Tosca Reno, whose life reflects both extraordinary success and profound loss. Her perspective cuts through the noise:
Real change isn’t about what you lose on the outside — it’s about what you’re finally willing to lay down.
We explore the weight people carry that has nothing to do with the scale… and why letting go is often the hardest, most necessary step.
In my closing commentary, I take it even further:
Transformation isn’t about upgrading your life.
It’s about facing it — honestly, painfully — until you become whole.

His core insight is simple but powerful: most organizations focus on symptoms, not root causes.
We dive into his five-question framework for redefining problems (inspired by Albert Einstein), why containment strategies often fail in both policing and business, and how global fraud, cybercrime, and hybrid threats are reshaping the risk landscape.
Chris introduces the concept of “asymmetrical problem-solving” — targeting weak points instead of attacking strength — and explains why breaking down silos between legal, finance, and compliance is essential for real progress. We also explore what leadership truly demands: not just process, but judgment.

We take a hard look at why short-term aid efforts repeatedly fall short, how colonial-era borders continue to fuel modern conflict, and what’s often missing from well-intentioned interventions.

On this episode of The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian sits down with Richard Lyle, President & CEO of RESCON, for a candid, data-driven conversation about the structural failures behind Canada’s housing system.

In Part 1, the discussion cuts through the noise: housing prices have climbed to nearly eight times average income, Toronto condo sales have plummeted, and billions in economic activity are at risk. From excessive regulation and taxes to policy gridlock and missed opportunities, this is a clear-eyed look at why supply isn’t keeping up—and what meaningful reform would actually require.

In Part 2, Brian steps back with a powerful commentary on “The Cost of Delay.” Canada isn’t short on ideas or reports—we’re short on action. And as delays continue, affordability worsens, supply tightens, and more Canadians are locked out of the market.

As geopolitical instability reshapes global energy markets and allies search for reliable, democratic suppliers, Canada appears uniquely positioned to step up. So what’s holding us back?
The conversation dives into Canada’s low-emission energy production, its continued reliance on the United States as a primary customer, and the long-debated failure to build pipeline infrastructure to the West Coast. They also examine how regulatory hurdles—including carbon pricing and clean electricity policies—are influencing investment decisions at a critical moment.
But this isn’t just about energy. It’s about economic growth, global influence, and whether Canada can act strategically in a rapidly changing world.

They dive into the subtle but critical shifts that elevate leadership communication — from saying less but meaning more, to listening with intention, to building confidence without tipping into arrogance. The conversation also explores practical ways to demonstrate leadership every day and redefines personal branding as something far more intentional: being yourself… on purpose.
Then, in a thought-provoking closing commentary, Brian turns to a deeper question: why are we getting worse at connection?
As success rises, many people begin treating relationships like strategic decisions — evaluating, optimizing, even “screening” for compatibility. But love and connection don’t follow business rules.

Together, they unpack why this moment goes far beyond politics or “wokeism,” and instead speaks to something more fundamental: respect. The discussion highlights the deep cultural significance of language in Quebec, the expectations placed on leaders in a bilingual country, and why even small efforts to communicate across linguistic lines can carry enormous meaning — especially in times of crisis. In Canada, leadership isn’t just about capability; it’s about cultural awareness and a willingness to meet people where they are.
In the second half, Brian turns to a more intimate conversation with Canadian poet Kathryn MacDonald about her collection The Blue Gate, released during Poetry Month. Centered on a transformative journey to Kenya after the sudden loss of her partner of 39 years, Kathryn’s work explores grief, spirituality, and the search for meaning. Through poetry, she captures what often cannot be said outright — holding complexity, emotion, and reflection all at once. The conversation reveals how storytelling, especially in poetic form, creates space for healing and helps us understand life’s most difficult moments.
At first glance, these topics may seem worlds apart — one rooted in public life, the other deeply personal. But both return to the same essential question: how do we truly hear and understand one another?

In Part 1, Antonius introduces the concept of restorative justice — an approach that shifts the focus away from punishment and toward repairing harm. Drawing on Indigenous traditions and international models, including Norway’s justice system, the conversation challenges conventional thinking about crime and consequences. 

Part 2 confronts the deeper issues behind the system. From the overrepresentation of Black and racialized youth to the lasting impacts of colonialism, systemic racism, and poverty, Antonius emphasizes that outcomes cannot change without addressing root causes.

In Part 3, the discussion turns to solutions. Through initiatives like the Keep 6 Ambassadors program, his organization is helping youth build pathways forward — through employment readiness, entrepreneurship, and mental well-being support. Because successful reintegration requires more than release — it requires opportunity.

Part 4 explores the power of healing circles and community connection, highlighting how rebuilding relationships and providing accessible support can play a critical role in preventing harm and fostering long-term change.

On this episode of The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian explores whether the challenge is a lack of ideas or investment — or something deeper: systems that have become too complex to deliver real results. In Part 1, Brian speaks with Eric Lombardi, a self-described “dark horse” in the Ontario Liberal Party leadership election. Lombardi argues that Ontario doesn’t suffer from too little government — but from ineffective government. The conversation dives into the structural barriers slowing progress, including overregulation, permitting delays, development charges, and zoning restrictions. Lombardi also outlines his proposal for “down payment mobility insurance” and makes the case that political parties have become too focused on stakeholders rather than citizens. His core message is clear: Ontario has built systems that manage — but no longer build. In Part 2, Brian expands the discussion nationally in his commentary, Abundance, Not Excuses. He argues that this isn’t just an Ontario issue — it reflects a broader Canadian shift away from building toward managing complexity. From housing shortages to delayed infrastructure and stalled energy projects, the symptoms are everywhere. Canada, he suggests, has become highly effective at process — but not outcomes. So what’s the path forward?

We explore how early strikes were described as operationally effective, yet raise concerns about the absence of a clearly defined political end state — a core principle in military strategy.
🌍 Part 2 — Predictable Escalation Risks
From potential disruption in the Strait of Hormuz to asymmetric retaliation, we examine responses that are widely anticipated in military planning — and whether they were fully accounted for.
🛢 Part 3 — Global Energy Risk
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most critical energy chokepoints, where even limited disruption could have global economic consequences.
♟ Part 4 — Geopolitical Chessboard
We discuss broader strategic dynamics involving the U.S., Iran, Israel, and Russia, and how energy markets and influence intersect in modern conflict.

With escalation risks rising, we explore whether the current approach aligns with long-term objectives — or whether alternative strategies are needed to avoid prolonged instability.

🌍 Part 1 — Energy in a New Global Order
We explore how geopolitical instability and shifting alliances are reshaping global energy markets, and why energy security has returned as a central pillar of national strategy.
🇨🇦 Part 2 — Canada’s Energy Position
Canada is a major oil and gas producer with record output and major infrastructure projects — but limited export capacity continues to constrain growth.
⚠️ Part 3 — Overreliance on the United States
With the vast majority of exports going to the U.S., we discuss the urgency of diversifying energy markets to Europe and Asia and strengthening long-term economic sovereignty.
🛢 Part 4 — Strategic Energy Security
We explore the surprising absence of a Canadian strategic oil reserve and what energy security could look like in a modern geopolitical context.

• Relationship building

In a digital world, human connection is becoming a competitive advantage.

🤖 Part 2 — AI as a Tool, Not a Replacement
We discuss AI’s strengths — and its limits — including why even the most advanced systems still struggle to replace trust, nuance, and real human conversation.

💼 Part 3 — Why Sales Is a Core Life Skill
Sales is no longer just a profession — it’s a foundational skill for every career. We explore how communication, confidence, and persuasion shape success in business, entrepreneurship, and leadership.

🌍 Part 1 — A New Internationalism
We explore Carney’s global diplomatic approach and why some see him as Canada’s most internationalist leader since Lester B. Pearson, as traditional global institutions lose influence.
🤝 Part 2 — The Rise of Middle Powers
With great power cooperation weakening, we discuss how countries like Canada, Australia, and European allies may increasingly shape global rules through coalitions rather than consensus-based institutions.
🇨🇦 Part 3 — Strategic Autonomy
Canada’s effort to reduce dependence on the United States raises major questions about defense, trade, technology, and long-term sovereignty.
💻 Part 4 — Digital Sovereignty
We examine the dominance of U.S. tech infrastructure and why AI, data, satellites, and supply chains are now central to national sovereignty.

🌍 Part 1 — Canada as a Middle Power
We explore why Canada’s global influence has declined, what its historical leadership in institutions like GATT and peacekeeping can teach us, and whether a renewed international role is still possible. We also discuss Prime Minister Mark Carney’s early leadership and signals of global ambition.

🇨🇦 Part 2 — The Two-Track Strategy
Canada’s economic future may depend on balancing two priorities:

• Diversifying trade beyond the United States
• While maintaining strong access to the U.S. market

⚠️ Part 3 — Unity at Home
We examine growing regional tensions and why internal unity is essential for long-term economic and political strength.

🌍 Global Context
From the Munich Security Conference to Europe’s defense posture and U.S.–China rivalry, we look at how global fragmentation could create both risks and opportunities for Canada.

Part 1 — Dr. Thomas Verny: Navigating Psychotherapy
Brian speaks with Dr. Thomas Verny about the complex world of therapy — from Freud and Jung to Gestalt and CBT — and what truly predicts success in psychotherapy. Topics include:

• How psychological “masks” create a gap between who you are and how you’re perceived
• The differences between insight-oriented and short-term cognitive approaches
• Why the therapist–patient relationship matters more than the method
• Risks posed by unqualified practitioners in an increasingly unregulated field

If you’ve ever wondered how to choose the right therapist — or whether therapy is about symptom relief or unlocking full potential — this conversation offers clarity. Part 2 — Brian Crombie: Charisma or Masks?
Brian closes with a commentary examining influencer culture and the myth of “commanding the room.” True charisma isn’t dominance — it’s alignment. Warmth and competence together build trust; when they don’t align, we rely on masks, over-performance, or hyper-relatability.

It’s about trust.
It’s about discernment.

And it’s about what happens when connection and caution collide. Brian is joined by Tracy Lamourie and Dave Parkinson of the John Parkinson Family Foundation to unpack the rising sophistication of romance scams — particularly those targeting seniors around Valentine’s Day. From AI-generated fake profiles and cloned voices to cryptocurrency demands and calculated emotional manipulation, the tactics are evolving rapidly. The psychology behind them isn’t. And the financial and emotional consequences can be devastating. But this conversation doesn’t stop at fraud prevention. In his closing commentary, Brian steps back to examine the broader psychological and cultural impact of living in an era of advanced deception. Caution is necessary. Discernment is strength. But when vigilance hardens into permanent suspicion, we risk shutting down genuine connection along with the scams. How do we protect ourselves without isolating ourselves?

How do we build relationships grounded in verification, boundaries, and community — without surrendering warmth or openness? This episode explores the balance modern relationships demand: protection without cynicism. Participation without blindness. Vulnerability managed wisely, not eliminated entirely.

On a recent flight from Toronto to Florida, de-icing caused a delay — a routine Canadian winter inconvenience. But in parts of the United States today, “ICE” means something very different: immigration enforcement, border tensions, and identity politics. Same word. Different national focus. It’s a revealing lens into how Canada and the U.S. are processing this political and economic moment in profoundly different ways. In the main interview, Brian is joined by Stephanie Stewart, an American Executive MBA from Indianapolis who has been writing extensively about Canada–U.S. trade relations. They break down the hard numbers behind the headlines: tariffs costing American households up to $1,300 annually, the upcoming USMCA review, the reality that roughly 60% of U.S. crude oil imports come from Canada, and how ongoing volatility is reshaping trust between long-standing allies. This isn’t partisan rhetoric — it’s economic math. In his closing commentary, Brian steps back to examine what middle power strategy really requires. Countries like Canada face two equal and opposite risks: appeasement without leverage, or rhetorical rupture without capacity. Real sovereignty isn’t declared on global stages — it’s built through pipelines, ports, LNG terminals, rail corridors, defence commitments, and predictable regulatory systems that mobilize private capital.

Brian is joined by Folklaur Chevrier, Executive Producer of The Christine Jessop Story, now streaming on Netflix after premiering as a Crave original. The series quickly rose to #2 on Netflix, reigniting national conversation around one of Canada’s most tragic and consequential criminal cases. In 1984, nine-year-old Christine Jessop disappeared from Queensville, Ontario. Months later, her remains were found. Her neighbour, Guy Paul Morin, was wrongfully convicted — a devastating miscarriage of justice that would ultimately lead to the landmark Kaufman Inquiry and lasting reforms in Canadian policing and forensic procedure. Decades later, advances in forensic genetic genealogy identified the true perpetrator — delivering long-awaited answers while reopening profound questions about accountability, institutional failure, and the human cost of error. In this powerful conversation, we explore:

• The responsibility of telling true stories involving real families and lasting trauma
• Avoiding sensationalism while maintaining narrative integrity
• How the Kaufman Inquiry reshaped Canadian justice
• The transformative role of DNA and forensic science in solving cold cases
• The emotional toll on the Jessop family over 35 years
• Why true crime continues to captivate audiences worldwide

This wasn’t just a documentary project — it was a 15-year journey to bring this story to screen with care, diligence, and integrity. ⚖️ What does justice mean when it comes decades late?

Brian is joined by Laura Darrell, people strategist, leadership...

Why trust in institutions has failed to recover since the pandemic

How coercive leadership styles eroded legitimacy — even when policies appeared to “work”

The difference between manufactured division and healthy disagreement

Why polite workplaces can still be deeply unproductive

What leadership looks like when authority must be earned, not assumed

Why vulnerability, curiosity, and collaboration are no longer optional

Why 2025 was effectively a write-off year for real estate

The collapse of pre-construction condo sales — from over 20,000 units to under 2,000

How high inventory, falling rents, and weak confidence are reshaping the market

What power-of-sale listings, investor distress, and stalled closings signal ahead

Why developers are pivoting to rentals — and the risks behind that shift

Why Canadian capital is increasingly flowing to the U.S., Mexico, and other markets

Brian then closes the show with a blunt commentary, “New Year 2026 — The State of the Real Estate Business,” examining why this moment is not just a rate cycle, but a structural reset. He explores what broke in the condo model, how credit stress and renewals are becoming the real story, and why fees, approvals, and delays are quietly manufacturing the next housing crisis.

Fred outlines why condo sales today could drive higher rents in 2026, how Canada is falling behind in AI and data centre development, and what real estate leaders urgently want from government — faster approvals, smarter permitting, and lower barriers to building.

taxes are rising faster than inflation every year, how “blended rates” hide the true tax increase, why Mississauga pays 62% of Peel Police costs but gets less than half the say, and why claims of “no room to cut” don’t match the data. Other questions they discuss include why public engagement is collapsing, how quality of life is slipping while the budget keeps growing, and the looming MPAC reassessment that could mean thousands more in taxes.

A long-time columnist for the Winnipeg Free Press and contributor to the Globe and Mail, National Post, and Maclean’s, he brings a storyteller’s depth to Canada’s wartime history.

In "The Dollar-a-Year Men", Allan recounts how, during World War II, hundreds of business leaders volunteered their expertise to serve in government for a symbolic salary of one dollar a year. Under the bold leadership of C.D. Howe, these men transformed Canada into an industrial and military powerhouse — coordinating munitions, shipbuilding, and aircraft production that helped turn the tide of war. Allan and Brian discuss what drew Allan to this story, how figures like Howe managed to mobilize private industry at lightning speed, and whether this model of public–private collaboration could have lessons for today’s world. Brian also shares a personal connection — his grandfather, Hugh Arthur Crombie, served on the War Munitions Board and was recognized by Prince Philip for his wartime contributions.

The Needlework Guild began in Dorset, England in 1882, founded to help children orphaned by mining disasters in Wales. The movement spread across Britain and North America — and today, the Toronto branch proudly stands as the only remaining North American chapter.

Each year, its 300 dedicated members knit, sew, and purchase new clothing and essential items for 21 frontline social service agencies across the GTA. Last year alone, they donated over 22,000 items — from baby layettes and winter coats to hats, mittens, blankets, and personal hygiene products.

You’ll hear inspiring stories from longtime members:

• Sue Garskey, who first got involved through her mother, has held many roles including president, and still supports the Guild even after moving to Ottawa.
• Joyce Hisey, recipient of the Order of Canada, who has spent a lifetime organizing volunteers and is now the Guild’s membership coordinator.
• Cathy Reith, who joined about nine years ago, stepped in as secretary and then president, and now helps lead the Guild through a new generation of giving.
• Brenda Rathbone, who joined eight years ago and now runs social media and outreach, helping connect the Guild’s mission to the wider community.

Together, they share how knitting hats, mittens, and baby layettes has become both a craft and a calling — a tradition that blends creativity with compassion.

And fittingly, this interview airs on the same day as the Guild’s annual Distribution Day, when all their year’s work culminates in delivering thousands of handmade and purchased goods to people who need them most.

He explains that while the condo market has slowed significantly, the rental market remains relatively stable, especially in the lower to middle price points. James notes that economic conditions, including a challenging job market for young people, have affected higher-priced units but have not significantly impacted the lower-end market segment where they focus their business. He emphasizes that the longer-term nature of purpose-built rentals allows them to be less concerned with short-term market fluctuations, as the sale of units is not necessary to move a project forward. By understanding more permanent market trends, such as population growth and upcoming supply shortages, they can focus on what things will look like at the end of their projects rather than the beginning.

James also discusses two rental development projects in Toronto's Leslieville neighborhood. Eastern Logan, located at the northeast corner of Eastern and Logan, is near the upcoming East Harbour transit hub, which will connect subway, GO train, and streetcar lines. The second project, Laing, is approximately one kilometer east of Eastern Logan, near Queen Street and Leslie. Both projects emphasize walkability and transit accessibility, with limited parking, reflecting Leslieville's urban lifestyle. The Eastern Logan project is also touched on and Brian closes the show with an outline of an opportunity for accredited investors to invest in a secured convertible debt security issued by The Eastern Logan project.

Roman discusses the summit between Putin and Trump, expressing strong criticism. He argues that the meeting was a diplomatic failure as it resulted in no ceasefire, no sanctions, and no concrete agreements. Roman accuses Trump of being naive and easily flattered by Putin, who he said had strategically prepared for the meeting. He also points out that Trump's trade relations with Russia seemed illogical given the ongoing sanctions. 

Roman covers Russia's strategic escalation of aggression, starting with actions in Chechnya, Georgia, and Moldova, and how weak Western responses, including Obama's lackluster reaction to Crimea's annexation, emboldened Russia to invade Ukraine in 2022. They address the Russian narrative about NATO expansion as a pretext for the invasion, which Roman dismissed as false, noting that Finland's NATO membership has not led to conflict and that Ukrainians historically did not want to join NATO but shifted to 90% support after Russia's full-scale invasion. 

Roman spoke about the prospects for peace in Ukraine. He suggests that a reasonable solution would be to freeze the current front lines, with Ukraine not recognizing the captured territories as Russian but agreeing not to use military force to recapture them. Roman emphasized that Ukraine would never accept giving up territories like the Eastern Donbas or Zaporizhia to Russia, as it would abandon Ukrainian citizens to Russian control and create new vulnerabilities. He argues that any peace deal must include strong security guarantees for Ukraine, such as NATO membership or significant military support, to deter future Russian aggression. Roman compared the situation to the Munich Agreement, warning that without robust security guarantees, Ukraine could face a similar fate.

Jack and Peter believe the decision was flawed, as it rewarded terrorism, reduced chances for a negotiated settlement, and recognized a state that did not exist. They also criticize the decision for being morally and practically flawed, and emphasize the need for a coherent approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. They criticize Keir Starmer's approach, highlighting that it operates as a rebuke to Israel rather than supporting Palestinian human rights. Jack emphasizes that Hamas's military defeat is necessary for peace, and he questions the incentives created by recognizing a Palestinian state, which could encourage Hamas to dig in its heels. Peter believes that the recent calls for recognizing Palestine as an independent state by countries like Canada, Britain, and France are part of a broader trend where Israel's legitimacy is increasingly questioned in international human rights discourse. He argues that while the focus on Palestinian rights is important, the current emphasis is on challenging Israel's founding and ongoing actions, particularly regarding the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. Peter warns that Canada's shift in position could deepen polarization and insecurity among Jewish people, as support for Palestinian statehood might be misinterpreted as anti-Semitism.

He is also Program Coordinator at the Bill Graham Centre for Contemporary International History and former editor of “International Journal”, Canada’s leading journal on international affairs.

Anders criticizes US economic policy, particularly the tariff strategy, which he described as arbitrary, aggressive, and lacking a theoretical basis. He argues that the tariffs, which effectively function as a regressive sales tax, are being paid by Americans and are contributing to rising inflation. Anders also contends that the US does not have a significant trade deficit when services and intellectual property are included, and he criticized Trump's approach to foreign investment and job creation as misleading and unfounded.

Anders discusses the concerning trend of American institutions and businesses complying with Trump's policies without significant resistance. Anders highlighted the worrying increase in the federal government's power over universities, media, and research funding, and emphasizes how Trump's approach to media censorship mirrors and even surpasses that of Vladimir Putin. He states that the United States is sliding into a gray zone of limited freedom, with Trump systematically using defamation laws to silence critics, while the country's ranking in press freedom has dropped significantly.

Together Brian and Darryl discuss real estate development in Toronto, focusing on housing challenges and future directions, including policy changes, community building, and the role of leadership in shaping the future of urban development. Darryl discusses his two high-end luxury development projects in Toronto, one in Forest Hill and another in Bridle Path, both targeting an undersupplied market segment with large suites. While luxury housing has become marketing-driven, with many small units, there is a gap in the market for large, high-end luxury rentals, which he aims to fill with his new development on Bayview, targeting suites of 2,500-3,000 square feet with premium amenities.

Darryl discusses the design and amenities of luxury residential buildings, emphasizing the demand for spacious walk-in closets, bathrooms, and bedrooms, along with concierge services and a valet system. He describes a project inspired by New York high-end condo living, featuring brick facades and turnstile doors, and predicted that brick construction might be more cost-effective in the long run than curtain wall systems, which he believes may face maintenance issues in the future. Darryl highlights the current state of the Toronto condo market, highlighting how issues with financing, the introduction of assignment sales, and speculative behavior led to an overheated market with small, expensive units that many buyers didn't intend to keep.

Development charges, fees, and conversions to purpose-built rentals have created issues. He notes that developers who initially targeted the condo market faced difficulties when converting to rentals due to size and cost differences, as well as a mismatch between investment expectations and market realities.

He emphasizes that building affordable housing in high-cost areas like downtown Toronto is ineffective and suggested developing new cities or populating underutilized areas. Murtaza also notes that Calgary's successful conversion of office buildings to residential units was a result of city planning and incentives, contrasting with other cities' inaction.  

Additionally, Murtaza covers the decline in single-family home construction in Canada, attributing it to urban planners' preference for high-density developments and the high cost of building and land for single-family homes. He highlights the need for Canada to grow its population to 60-80 million to enhance economic prosperity and resilience, particularly in light of trade challenges with the United States. He suggests reducing reliance on trade with the U.S., which currently accounts for 80% of exports, by increasing domestic consumption and exploring new trade opportunities with Europe, China, and Asia.

Richard Lyle discusses the current housing situation in Canada, describing it as a crisis and even a catastrophe in some areas. He emphasizes that it's not just a housing crisis but also a growth management crisis, particularly in Ontario. Richard covers the significant decline in GTA new home and condo sales, noting a 90% drop to 345 units in May, down from a typical 2,700 units monthly average. Despite ongoing construction activity, Richard highlights that the market has reached a critical point where new projects are not being announced, indicating a long-term decline in the industry.

Richard expresses concern over high unemployment rates predicting potential layoffs of 200,000 to 300,000 people in Ontario's new home and condo building sector, which could lead to a 1.5 to 2.5% GDP hit. Richard discusses the housing affordability crisis, highlighting that housing costs to income ratios remain unacceptably high, with numbers as high as 14:1 in some areas, compared to the ideal ratio of 3.5-4:1. He attributes the high costs to a combination of factors including excessive taxes, development fees, and regulations, noting that while some costs are beyond government control, others can be addressed through policy changes.

Additionally, he expresses concerns about the need for urgent action this fall to address the decline in housing projects and potential layoffs in the construction industry. He emphasizes the importance of preventing Toronto from becoming unaffordable and unattractive for growth. Richard suggests removing sales taxes on new housing, reducing land transfer taxes and development charges, streamlining the planning and zoning process, and standardizing rules across the province.

Aled discusses the CMHC's new modeling approach, which still supports the need for increased housing supply to improve affordability. He says there are structural long-term challenges in the GTA and Vancouver with high housing costs deterring talent and causing a shift to other cities like Calgary and Halifax. Aled emphasizes that increasing housing supply could slow the growth of house prices, aiming for a flatline rather than a significant decrease. Additionally, Aled attributes the recent decline in housing prices to macroeconomic uncertainty and a short-term glut of condos, rather than an increase in supply. He notes that the disconnect in affordability metrics began around 2006, and current per capita housing construction rates are about half of what they were in the 1970s. Development fees and GST have significantly increased over the past decade, accounting for about 31% of the cost of housing. Aled also discussed the lengthy regulatory process for rezoning land, which can take 3-5 years in Toronto.

Together Aled and Brian explore the potential for a boom and bust cycle due to low housing starts in the current year. Aled says simplifying zoning regulations and moving away from municipal control towards provincial or national oversight could help increase housing supply, highlighting the need for more harmonized regulations to allow for industry consolidation and greater productivity.

Aled joined CMHC in 2016, previously had a 15-year career at Finance Canada, in various research and analysis roles that...
Aled discusses the CMHC's new modeling approach, which still supports the need for increased housing supply to improve affordability. He says there are structural long-term challenges in the GTA and Vancouver with high housing costs deterring talent and causing a shift to other cities like Calgary and Halifax. Aled emphasizes that increasing housing supply could slow the growth of house prices, aiming for a flatline rather than a significant decrease. Additionally, Aled attributes the recent decline in housing prices to macroeconomic uncertainty and a short-term glut of condos, rather than an increase in supply. He notes that the disconnect in affordability metrics began around 2006, and current per capita housing construction rates are about half of what they were in the 1970s. Development fees and GST have significantly increased over the past decade, accounting for about 31% of the cost of housing. Aled also discussed the lengthy regulatory process for rezoning land, which can take 3-5 years in Toronto.

Together Aled and Brian explore the potential for a boom and bust cycle due to low housing starts in the current year. Aled says simplifying zoning regulations and moving away from municipal control towards provincial or national oversight could help increase housing supply, highlighting the need for more harmonized regulations to allow for industry consolidation and greater productivity. Aled expressed skepticism about inclusionary zoning, preferring to address affordability through the tax system.

Tim Welsh is author of "Ley Lines". This book is a fascinating exploration around the mythos of the gold rush and southern Canada’s— and the world’s—fascination with the North. Set in the waning days of the Klondike Gold Rush, Ley Lines begins in the mythical boom town of Sawdust City, Yukon Territory. Luckless prospector Steve Ladle has accepted an unusual job offer: accompany a local con artist to the unconquered top of a nearby mountain. There, the duo finds a seven-foot human ear, floating in a halo of light. This mysterious discovery briefly upends Sawdust City's fading fortunes, attracting a crowd of gawkers and acolytes, while inadvertently setting in motion a series of events that brings about the town's ruin.

Then, he speaks with George Matuvi, author of "The War as I Saw It". George brings us into the world of a young boy living through a war he doesn’t understand. As violence drives his family from their home in the mountains to the streets of Zimbabwe’s towns and then cities, the author shares his family’s story with honesty, composure and a touch of humour. Interspersed within this tale of flight, hardship and the eventual return to rebuild, Matuvi shares stories of his life as a child, from making soccer balls out of discarded plastic bags to the tales his father told around the fire at night, adding depth and joy to his portrait of a family struggling with displacement. "The War as I Saw It" is not a tragedy, though there were many tragedies during the war, it is a story of love, of strength in difficulty and of the ingenuity of one family as they cope with forces beyond their control.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/66175771Tue, 20 May 2025 23:05:07 +0000NEWSTALK Sauga 960 AMBrian welcomes on two guests.

First, Amanda Larson. Amanda is a writer, mother, grandmother, and digital nomad who travels the world while continuing her work. Her journey has taken her to incredible places like Barcelona, Ireland, Thailand, Vietnam, Bali, Egypt, Italy, and Paris. In our discussion, we explore her experiences as a digital nomad, the profound lessons she’s learned about herself, others, the world, and the meaning of life. Amanda is also launching a podcast to share inspiring stories about the extraordinary people she’s encountered along the way.

Then Wayne Ng joins the show to discuss his new novel, "Johnny Delivers". Set in 1977, the story follows 18-year-old Johnny Wong, the son of Chinese immigrants to Canada, as he calls upon the spirit of Bruce Lee to navigate the enduring challenges of racism. The novel delves into how discrimination shapes our inner lives, institutions, relationships, and livelihoods, while also tackling themes of toxic masculinity, homophobia, and the universal struggle for belonging. With Canada recently marking the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Exclusion Act, the book's themes feel especially poignant. Combining an emotionally gripping narrative with a distinctly Canadian setting and universal relevance, "Johnny Delivers" is a must-read.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/62970650Sat, 23 Nov 2024 00:05:06 +0000NEWSTALK Sauga 960 AMBrian interviews two guests.

Unlike many other candidates who are currently serving as councillors, I believe that fresh perspective from someone familiar with Mississauga's issues but not currently on council is what our city needs to thrive.


As a resident of Mississauga for the past 24 years, I am deeply committed to the well-being and progress of our community. My extensive involvement includes serving as Co-Chair of the Mississauga City Summit for seven years, President of the Mississauga Arts Council for two years, on the Board for seven, and contributing to various municipal and federal campaigns across the city for two decades.


Throughout my corporate career, I've had the privilege of working on impactful projects such as master-planned communities with Walt Disney, downtown planning and negotiations with The Ottawa Senators, and overseeing property developments across the GTA, BC, Texas, and Florida with a major real estate firm. With over 35 years of experience as CFO and COO of several companies, I bring a wealth of relevant corporate expertise to the table.


The current Mississauga Mayor by-election presents a pivotal moment for our city. It's a time for all citizens to reflect on the pressing issues we face, including:

* A housing crisis.
* Affordability challenges and bureaucratic red tape.
* Congestion, transit, and transportation issues.
* Governance distractions leading to a lack of democracy.
* Visionary leadership deficit.
* Safety and crime concerns.


During my broadcast tonight at 6 pm on sauga 960 AM, I will outline these challenges and share innovative ideas to address them. Additionally, the discussion will be available on YouTube and various podcast platforms.


If you share my vision for positive change in our city, I urge you to join me in this journey. Together, we can shape a brighter future for Mississauga.

As a woman, a racialized person, an immigrant, and a member of the LGBTQ2+ community, Maria works diligently every day to ensure that she can make a meaningful difference in the lives of these and other often underrepresented groups.]]>2858briancrombie,briancrombieradiohour,covid19,foodbanks,inflation,mariario,newstalksauga960am,sauga960am,thestopcommunityfoodcentrefalsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/brian-crombie-radio-hour-epi-710-mental-health-and-covid-19-with-paula-allen--51068940https://api.spreaker.com/episode/51068940Mon, 29 Aug 2022 23:05:01 +0000NEWSTALK Sauga 960 AMBrian interviews Paula Allen.
