On the latest show, co-hosts Kirk LaPointe and Hayley Woodin speak to Paul Evans – interim research director of the Institute of Asian Research at the University of British Columbia – about the outcomes of Trudeau’s second trip to China. Evans shares how Canada is exposed to NAFTA negotiations with no plan-B in place. He also questions whether the renegotiation will take Canada to heaven with a dream NAFTA 2.0, to 'vampire land' where the U.S. "sucks Canada dry," or 'zombie land' where nothing comes from the negotiations.

The editor-in-chief of Lift News David Brown weighs in on what B.C. has proposed by way of cannabis regulation.
