Prime Minister Mark Carney is defending his government’s economic record, claiming wages are rising faster than inflation and affordability is improving. But many Canadians aren’t buying it.

With grocery prices up roughly 30% over five years and over 100,000 full-time jobs lost over the last two months, the reality on the ground tells a very different story.

Meanwhile, questions are being raised over the federal government’s response to Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau’s English-only video following a deadly crash in New York, with one critic arguing the Prime Minister and others politicized the language issue instead of focusing on the tragedy itself.

Political strategist Georganne Burke joins Marc Patrone from Jerusalem to discuss the backlash over Ottawa’s response to the Air Canada statement and broader concerns about political messaging in crisis moments.
