One day he’s telling us that tariffs are amazing because they will bring lots of new jobs to the US and raise so much money we won’t have to pay income tax, then the next day he’s telling us we aren’t doing them because people were nice to him on the phone.

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host.
Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders.
But don't worry it will be done with "care."

There have been a few times when Checkup has been hammered on social media for a program we haven't done yet. I'm in a show meeting right now. The gap between what's being posted and what we're actually planning is enormous. Our regular listeners should expect the same care we use for every show.
