Fréquence : 1 épisode/8j. Total Éps: 48

The MBP Intelligence Briefing gets past the headlines into the policy shaping Canada: the legislation, the budgets, the regulatory decisions, and the politics driving them. Completely free and completely ad-free.

Hosted by Shannon Phillips, the show features weekly conversations with Ken Boessenkool, Tyler Meredith, and Ben Woodfinden, along with monthly guests bringing a fresh perspective from business, media, or public policy. The panel comes at this from across the political spectrum: Liberal, Conservative, and NDP, because politics is partisan, and policy doesn't get made in a vacuum. No punditry. Just the read from people who've written policy, not just commented on it, from cabinet tables, platform rooms, and comms shops.

Expect roundtable discussions that break down what a policy actually does, not just what it's called, and in-depth interviews on the fiscal, trade, and regulatory decisions shaping business and government.

MBP Intelligence Briefing: Pacific Link Pipeline, Federal Budget & Canada’s Election Season

vendredi 2 octobre 2026 • Durée 48:47

This week on the MBP Intelligence Briefing, Shannon Phillips is joined by Ken Boessenkool and Tyler Meredith for a wide-ranging discussion on the Pacific Link Pipeline and LNG investment, the choices facing Ottawa ahead of the federal budget, and a busy election season in Alberta, Quebec and British Columbia.

In this episode:

• Pacific Link Pipeline & Alberta: Ottawa’s designation of the Pacific Link Pipeline as a project of national interest, how a 35–43.7 billion publicly backed pipeline could be financed, the risks to Alberta and Ottawa, CCUS and royalty questions, and whether expanding pipeline capacity can help diversify Canadian energy exports beyond the United States. The panel also looks at what the announcement means for Alberta’s October 19 referendum and the national unity debate.

• Federal Budget: What Ottawa needs to balance as it prepares its next budget, from investment and competitiveness to affordability and rising borrowing costs. The panel looks at Canada’s changing interest-rate environment, the pressures created by higher yields, and why increasingly attractive risk-free returns could make it harder to unlock the private investment Canada needs.

• Election Season: With voters heading to the polls in Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia, the panel looks at which results could matter most to Ottawa. They discuss the changing political landscape in Quebec, the implications of Alberta’s referendum, what a change of government in B.C. could mean for federal-provincial relations, and the potential consequences for upcoming health-transfer negotiations.

MBP Intelligence Briefing – Canada–U.S. Trade War, CUSMA and What Comes Next

lundi 24 août 2026 • Durée 01:00:34

In this week's special edition of the MBP Intelligence Briefing, Ben Woodfinden is joined by Diamond Isinger, trade expert, policy strategist and Fellow at the UBC School of Public Policy and Global Affairs, along with Ken Boessenkool and Tyler Meredith, for an in-depth discussion of the escalating Canada–U.S. trade war following the collapse of negotiations with the Trump administration.

The panel begins with Prime Minister Carney’s decision to suspend negotiations and walk away from a potential agreement rather than accept significant last-minute U.S. demands. With new Section 338 tariffs now in effect and Canada preparing dollar-for-dollar retaliation, they examine what went wrong at the negotiating table, whether the United States remains a credible negotiating partner, and why the current trade fight could become a prolonged conflict.

The conversation then turns to the future of CUSMA and whether the agreement still offers Canada meaningful protection as the United States increasingly acts outside its existing trade commitments. They discuss how Canada should retaliate, what support affected businesses and workers may need, and why trade diversification and new international investment relationships are becoming increasingly important.

Finally, the panel considers the broader implications for Canadian sovereignty. If Washington is seeking to restrict Canada’s ability to negotiate trade agreements with other countries, they argue, the dispute is no longer simply about tariffs—it raises fundamental questions about Canada’s economic independence and its ability to pursue its own relationships around the world.

In this episode, they discuss:

Why Prime Minister Carney walked away from the latest Canada–U.S. trade negotiations.
Whether last-minute U.S. demands reveal a deeper problem with Washington as a negotiating partner.
What the new Section 338 tariffs and Canada’s planned retaliation mean for the escalating trade war.
Whether CUSMA still provides Canada with meaningful protection and preferential access to the U.S. market.
How Canada can design targeted tariff and non-tariff retaliation that creates political and economic pressure in the United States.

MBP Intelligence Briefing – Iran, China, Oil Markets, and Canada's Energy Opportunity (Complimentary)

vendredi 31 juillet 2026 • Durée 57:36

In this week's MBP Intelligence Briefing, Ben Woodfinden and Ken Boessenkool welcome back commodity economist Rory Johnston to the podcast, founder of Commodity Context, to unpack one of the most significant developments in global energy markets in decades.

The discussion begins with the ongoing conflict involving Iran and the Strait of Hormuz—one of the world's most critical energy chokepoints—and why many analysts believed oil prices were headed toward US$200 per barrel. Rory explains why that prediction never materialized, revealing the surprising role China played in stabilizing global markets through an unprecedented collapse in crude oil imports and what may be the use of vast underground strategic oil reserves hidden from public view.

The panel explores how Saudi Arabia, Russia, China and the United States have all influenced the current energy landscape, why global oil markets remain far more fragile than many realize, and how geopolitical instability is permanently changing investor perceptions of energy security.

Finally, the conversation turns to Canada. Could this crisis strengthen the case for new pipelines? Should governments—not private industry—be responsible for strategic energy infrastructure? And what role could Canada play as one of the world's most reliable democratic energy suppliers in an increasingly unstable world?

In this episode, they discuss:

The ongoing Iran conflict and the Strait of Hormuz crisis
Why analysts expected oil to reach US$200 per barrel
How China prevented a global energy shock
China's mysterious underground strategic oil reserves
The collapse of Chinese crude imports
Russia's refinery outages and their impact on global fuel supplies
Whether geopolitical risk has permanently changed oil markets
Why Canada may be entering a new era for pipeline development
The strategic value of energy infrastructure beyond simple economics
What higher geopolitical risk means for Canadian energy exports
