Peter Donolo joins the Everything Political panel with former MPs Martha Hall Findlay and Tony Clement to discuss Carney’s deal with China. They explore why Tony thinks it’s a terrible decision for Canada, the need to chart a new path away from America, China’s history of foreign influence in Canada, and the future of Canada’s auto industry. The panel then considers whether Carney has come through on his “elbows up” campaign promise, the economic war that Canadians face with America, why Carney may need to call on Canadians to make sacrifices, his “mealy-mouthed” reaction to the American invasion of Venezuela, and joining Trump’s “Board of Peace.” Follow The Paikin Podcast: YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePaikinPodcast Email us at: thepaikinpodcast@gmail.com Support us: patreon.com/thepaikinpodcast

| World on Edge: Did Trump Just Kill the Liberal International Order? | 15 Jan 2026 | 00:58:11 | |
Janice Stein is joined by Jon R. Lindsay from Georgia Tech to discuss if the kidnapping of Maduro signals the death of the liberal international order, if Venezuela was an inside job, and if Trump has turned the world into a “den of thieves,” as the President Steinmeier of Germany said last week. They then discuss Canada’s response to America’s attack on Venezuela, Poilievre’s vs. Carney’s statements, and what this means for Greenland, Taiwan and, well, Canada. In other words, how seriously should Canadians take Trump’s 51st state rhetoric now? PATREON: patreon.com/thepaikinpodcast Support us: patreon.com/thepaikinpodcast

| Redline Debates: How Should We Remember the Freedom Convoy? | 24 Feb 2026 | 00:52:28 | |
Welcome to the first edition of The Paikin Podcast "Redline Debates." Four years ago this month, a convoy of truckers essentially took over the nation's capital, and beyond disrupting life there, it became a Rorschach test on how you felt about everything from vaccinations to parliamentary democracy. Justin Ling from the Toronto Star and Candice Malcolm from Juno News join to debate what the Freedom Convoy was all about, how history should remember it, how the media covered it, the fact that the vast majority of Canadians opposed the convoy, and the decision to use the Emergencies Act.

They also look at the curious case of a budget speech mentioning immigration numerous times, how Champagne wants to “take back control” of immigration, and how to build big things again.

| World on Edge: Is Canada’s Military Ready for the New Chaotic Global Order? | 13 Nov 2025 | 01:02:56 | |
Former MP and Conservative Party Leader Erin O’Toole joins Janice Stein to discuss the historically huge increase in military spending from last week’s budget, what we should focus spending it on, whether we should buy submarines or drones, why we need a Made-in-Canada approach, if we should take the 51st state rhetoric seriously, if we are on the precipice of war with either Russia or China, how to assert our sovereignty in the Arctic, the end of the rules-based order and globalization, and why Canada needs to step up its spending and meet its NATO commitments.

| Why Avi Lewis Thinks He Can Save the NDP | 06 Nov 2025 | 01:00:19 | |
Avi Lewis joins Steve to discuss his NDP leadership bid, why he wants to be the leader of a party that 94% of Canadian voters rejected in the last election, the decline of the NDP since Jack Layton, how Trudeau passed the NDP on the left, if Jagmeet Singh was a good leader, and why the NDP needs to return to its roots as a “working-class” party. They also get into if the party focussed too much on identity politics, why the populist right has captured all those voters who also believe the game is rigged and unfair, the prospect of a wealth tax, why we’ve lost the ability to build big things in Canada, if we care about climate change anymore, the failure of the carbon tax, Alberta separatism, and his family’s long history in NDP politics. (Yes, they cover a LOT of ground.) Follow The Paikin Podcast: YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePaikinPodcast Email us at: thepaikinpodcast@gmail.com Support us: patreon.com/thepaikinpodcast

Darrell Bricker and John Ibbitson join Steve to discuss their new book, Breaking Point: The New Big Shifts Putting Canada at Risk, how the country is in the middle of the greatest political crisis it has ever faced, the rising anger young people feel about housing prices and gig jobs, Trudeau’s failures as a prime minister, and how he destroyed the Canadian consensus on immigration. They also discuss the growing regional tensions in Quebec and the Prairies, the looming threat of Trump and tariffs, whether Carney (or Poilievre) can meet this turbulent and uncertain moment, and how exactly to bring this country back from this “breaking point.” Follow The Paikin Podcast: YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePaikinPodcast Email us at: thepaikinpodcast@gmail.com Support us: patreon.com/thepaikinpodcast

| World on Edge: Will Trump’s Israel-Hamas Peace Deal Work? | 30 Oct 2025 | 00:46:36 | |
Trump’s 20-point peace plan includes disarming Hamas, an international stabilization force, and an apolitical Palestinian transitional government. Could it work? Hussein Ibish, contributor to The Atlantic, joins Janice Stein to discuss the state of the deal, why Hamas accepted it, how Netanyahu was forced into it, why Hamas never actually wanted to govern Gaza, if the plan offers a viable long term plan for Gaza’s future, and if one of the legacies of this war is to turn Israel into a permanent pariah state.
