TLDR

• How the U.S. Is Threatening Canada's Future

  For months, the biggest economic story in the world has, seemingly, been tariffs. But according to Mark Blyth, a political economist at Brown University, that’s only a small part of it. On the week’s TLDR, Blyth breaks down how the U.S. is reshaping the global economic and political order — and what it might mean for Canada. Plus, we take a look at luxury goods markets: what’s up? What’s down? And why? And, we examine what happened when some religious scammers created their own cryptocurrency. (It didn't end well.)This episode was hosted by Devin Friedman, business reporter Sarah Rieger and former hedgefunder Matthew Karasz.

  Meme stocks are everywhere these days. What’s it like to set one off?

Plus, those $100m AI pay packages — how real are they? And how can Devin get one? And, could Edmonton hold the key to Canada’s housing woes?This episode was hosted by Devin Friedman, business reporter Sarah Rieger and former hedgefunder Matthew Karasz.
