Episode Details

After a few months away, I’m back in the truck talking through something I keep coming back to… Politics. Everything seems to lead back to it. I look at politicians a little differently than most people. To me, they’re no different than real estate agents. They’re hired to represent us. That’s the job. And like any job, there’s a responsibility:
Do what you said you were going to do.
Act in the best interest of the people who hired you.
Be competent enough to actually perform. But that’s not what we’re seeing. From property tax increases at the municipal level, to massive deficits at the provincial level, to record spending across the country—it raises a simple question: Are these people actually working for us? Because if real estate agents operated the way politicians do, they’d lose their license. In this episode, I break down:

• Why I compare politicians to real estate agents
• How representation is supposed to work
• What’s actually happening at the city, provincial, and federal levels
• Why rising costs (like property taxes) affect everyone, including renters
• And why the current trajectory isn’t sustainable

This isn’t about left vs right. It’s about competence, accountability, and whether the people we elect are actually doing the job we hired them to do. Subscribe for more real conversations about building, business, and what’s actually happening.
