Jon Love, founder and executive chair of KingSett Capital, discusses the rise of antisemitism in Canada following October 7th and the troubling silence from business and political leaders. He argues that Canadians must separate foreign conflicts from domestic issues, emphasizing that all Canadians deserve equal rights and protection regardless of ethnicity or religion. He also challenges the business community's reluctance to speak out and calls on non-Jewish Canadians to become active allies by condemning antisemitic acts and fostering a culture of mutual respect.

They discuss how what was supposed to be a payroll tax appears to have mutated into a media licensing regime, and argue how this threatens journalistic independence while stifling innovation in Canadian media.

Sean Speer and Rudyard Griffiths discuss President Trump's apparent reversal on the Iran conflict, just days after launching military action. They examine the implications of Trump's inconsistency for U.S. credibility and global deterrence, arguing this represents his fourth major policy "taco" alongside China, Russia, and Greenland. They also explore the moral costs of the conflict, the opportunity costs of American unreliability, and whether fears about Trump being an existential threat to Canada are overstated.

Veteran war correspondent Scott Anderson discusses his book "Lawrence in Arabia: War, Deceit, Imperial Folly and the Making of the Modern Middle East" live at the Royal Canadian Military Institute.

Anderson explores the eccentric T.E. Lawrence's transformation from British intelligence officer to a rebel fighting mercilessly for Arab independence, his pioneering guerrilla warfare tactics in the desolate desert, and his ultimate betrayal through the secret Sykes-Picot Agreement. The interview examines Lawrence's conflicted loyalties, his rejection of British imperialism, and how the post-WWI partition of the Middle East planted seeds of war that continue to be felt today.

This episode was taped live on February 11, 2026, as part of the RCMI's military history night series.
