Trump's Obsession with Venezuelan Oil Has Huge Repercussions for Canada's Economy
Description
There is much to discuss in Canada-US politics news today, so Bill’s final guest interview of 2025 is friend of the podcast, Markham Hislop of Energi Media (Markham Hislop, Thoughtful Energy Journalism). They discuss the recent whirlwind of political news stories coming out of the United States regarding Trump’s obsession with Venezuelan oil and how it all connects back to Western Canadian politics and Prime Minister Mark Carney’s economic strategy.
Plus, they discuss hopeful technological solutions for Canada’s energy future and the prospect of our nation ever positioning ourselves as a “global energy superpower”. What innovative, futuristic technology does Canada have in our own backyard? And what geopolitical context is required to understand how the economic powers of China, the United States and Russia are influencing Canadian policy and politics, today?
