How to spend it 🛍️ - Ottawa struggles to spend foreign investments, GLP-1 drugs are changing tastes.

Episode 1031 Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Ottawa is struggling to put tens of billions in foreign investment to work, as a lack of shovel-ready infrastructure projects leaves the UAE’s promised capital sitting on the sidelines and raises questions about whether Canada can actually deliver on its major-projects ambitions. Plus, Nestlé is rethinking snack flavours for the GLP-1 era, as weight-loss drugs reshape how millions of consumers experience taste and push food giants toward spicier, higher-protein, and more fibre-focused products.

And in The Big Picture: B.C. prepares to sue OpenAI over the Tumbler Ridge shooting, a jailed Indian gang leader is charged in the Nijjar killing, and NATO eyes Canadian-made Bombardier jets for its next surveillance aircraft order.
