Steve Murphy returns!

Steve Murphy joins for a year-end conversation that cuts through noise to examine how leadership tone shaped 2025. The discussion moves from community stories—like Christmas Daddies and food bank funding—to the broader political landscape, including Mark Carney’s centrist rise and shifting voter dynamics. As well as Trump’s presidency impact on the world and politics itself.

Affordability pressures, from trades to homeowners, emerge as major themes alongside Canada Post’s need for humane restructuring. Atlantic Canada’s unique context appears through climate swings, the rise of EVs, and the need for new civic infrastructure in Halifax. Energy discussions highlight wind, tidal, and a diversified renewable future tailored to Nova Scotia. Throughout, the episode argues that kindness acts as a strategic force that strengthens communities and steadies politics.

Don Mills

We sit down once again with Don Mills for a frank, energized conversation about a new private-sector panel tasked with one job: raise productivity and close the prosperity gap with the rest of Canada. No spin. No bureaucratic maze. Just a focused plan to turn our energy potential, resource base, and export channels into real incomes and real jobs.

We dig into the big levers. Energy sits at the core: offshore wind, onshore wind, tidal, hydro from Labrador, nuclear in New Brunswick, and proven natural gas reserves.

If this vision resonates, share the episode, leave a review, and hit follow so more Atlantic Canadians can find it—and join the chorus calling for smart growth.

Dr Andrew Travers

We sit down at Oxford Taproom with Dr. Andrew Travers, Nova Scotia’s EHS medical director, to unpack how a care-first 911 system can calm panic, deliver treatment faster, and often avoid an unnecessary ambulance ride. From text-to-video assessments that let clinicians see a wound in real time to nurse and physician callbacks that build a safe plan without leaving home, Andrew shows how “time to care” now trumps “time to arrival.”
