Highest household debt in the G7, squandering opportunity is the story of Canada | Melissa Lantsman

Jim Csek asks Melissa Lantsman a simple question: how does a country with this much oil, this much food, this many critical minerals, and this much human talent end up selling its airports to sovereign wealth funds built on the oil money it refused to develop? Lantsman's answer is a brutal assessment of Canada's economic failure. Topics covered: ► The plan to sell Canadian airports and ports to foreign sovereign wealth funds, the same funds built on oil revenue from countries that had the sense to develop their resources, while Canada refused to develop its own ► The regulatory labyrinth that drove hundreds of billions of dollars in investment out of Canada and why Bill C-5, the Liberals' own admission that the system was broken, did not bring that investment back ► Why trimming regulatory fat after years of damage does not restore investor confidence and what it would actually take to rebuild it ► The oil and gas emissions cap and the tanker ban as deliberate choices to destroy Canada's leverage in trade negotiations and strangle the prosperity of ordinary Canadians ► The line that defines the whole segment: squandering opportunity is the story of Canada, a country with everything the world wants that chose not to use it ► Canada's position in the G7: highest household debt, food inflation running at 6.2%, housing costs consuming over half of typical buyer income, and food bank lineups that now include working families ► The domestic economic crisis turning into a political crisis of distrust in the very people who caused it and keep promising it will get better This is the most complete summary of Canada's self-inflicted economic failure from one of the sharpest voices in federal politics.
