  • The Brief: Inside Washington with Jonathan Martin
    Nov 25 2025
    In this episode of The Brief, guest host Adam Legge sits down with Jonathan Martin, Politics Bureau Chief and Senior Political Columnist with POLITICO, for a clear-eyed look at the forces shaping U.S. politics today and what they mean for Canada. Drawing on years of firsthand reporting from around Washington, D.C., and inside the Oval Office, Jonathan unpacks how President Donald Trump approaches decision-making, how the dynamics of modern politics have shifted in the age of social media, and what Canada should keep top of mind as it navigates this environment. He also offers a candid assessment of where Canada has leverage—from highlighting tangible, near-term wins that resonate with the president, to positioning our natural resources as indispensable to North American security, Jonathan outlines how Canada can engage with the Trump 2.0 administration in ways that actually move the needle. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About the Business Council of Alberta The Business Council of Alberta was founded on a simple idea: to make life better for all Albertans.
