  Trump’s Trade Team Exposes Mark Carney & The Lake America Distraction

  Aug 31, 202617 min

  The U.S. trade deal has collapsed, and Ottawa’s official story is falling apart on live television. In this episode, we break down how Donald Trump’s trade team—led by Jamieson Greer and Howard Lutnick—just caught Mark Carney lying to Canadians about the last-minute demands that derailed the negotiations. While the Canadian media and political class spent the week having a meltdown over Trump’s executive order renaming Lake Ontario to "Lake America," we expose the real masterstroke: the U.S. quietly securing 65 billion barrels of oil in Venezuela. We’re joined by Carleton University Professor Ian Lee, who warns that Canada will be crushed in a prolonged trade war, and we analyze Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s pushback against Ottawa's dangerous threats to weaponize Canadian energy. In this episode we cover: The Live TV Sabotage: How Greer and Lutnick exposed Mark Carney’s hidden motives. The Lake America Distraction: Why the media outrage over Lake Ontario was a trap. The Venezuelan Oil Play: How the U.S. just destroyed Canada's energy leverage. The Economic Fallout: Professor Ian Lee on the brutal reality of the new tariffs. The Provincial Pushback: Why Danielle Smith is refusing to follow Ottawa’s lead. Connect with us: Twitter/X: @behindtheheadlinescanada Facebook: @behindtheheadlinescanada

  CBC Admits Trump Was Right as Carney's Trade Strategy Collapses

  Aug 17, 202613 min

  Is Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Canada-U.S. trade strategy collapsing? Pierre Poilievre exposes the PM for caving to Donald Trump’s trade demands, and even mainstream media is admitting the Liberal strategy has failed. While the U.S. issues a final ultimatum threatening devastating 50% tariffs on Canada before the August 19 deadline, Mark Carney is under fire for vacationing in Italy instead of negotiating. In this episode of Behind the Headlines, Cody and Ian break down U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer’s direct warning to Ottawa, the leaked trade concessions on Canadian dairy and alcohol, and why Pierre Poilievre is stepping up to demand an immediate end to Liberal concessions. Plus, we analyze the shocking CBC panel segment where reporters finally admitted Donald Trump’s strategy worked. What We Cover in This Episode: • The Vacation Fallout: Why Poilievre is calling out Carney's Italy trip during a trade crisis. • The August 19 Ultimatum: Decoding Jamieson Greer's 50% tariff threat to Canada. • Leaked Concessions: Is Ottawa preparing to surrender on dairy quotas and alcohol bans? • The Media Shift: The CBC panel that admitted Trump backed Canadian negotiators into a corner.

In this episode of Behind the Headlines, we break down the leaked CBC concession list, Poilievre’s direct challenge to the Prime Minister, and what these desperate trade negotiations actually mean for the Canadian economy moving forward.
