Full Circle: A Deloitte podcast
In a world where disruption has gone from the new normal to an abnormal peak, leaders face a choice: adapt to unprecedented circumstances or hesitate and fall behind. This podcast is for private and public-sector executives who refuse to sit on the sidelines—leaders who want to understand the forces reshaping the business and policy environments and then act decisively to mold these to their advantage.
Full Circle: The Leapfrog series, is a part series about how to meet the moment in practical terms and reach new highs as individuals, businesses and a country. Hosted by long-time journalist and public policy leader, former Editor-in-Chief of The Globe and Mail and co-chair of Deloitte’s Future of Canada Centre , Edward Greenspon and featuring insights from the country's top minds, each episode addresses urgent, high-stakes opportunities through a Canadian perspective.
S2 E2 Trading up: Turning an eye to bolder trade diversification
The impact of US tariffs is prompting savvy businesses to look beyond our borders, indeed beyond the continent. Europe and Asia provide the best opportunities to both grow and rebalance our still vital US connections. Join Edward Greenspon, John Risley, and Jakub Uziak as they delve into how Canadian companies can pull off this shift and, in the process, turn Canada into an "innovation nation" with a more diversified trade portfolio.
Speakers:
- John Risley, Co-Founder of Clearwater Seafoods & Chairman and CEO of CFFI Ventures Inc.
- Jakub Uziak, Transfer Pricing Partner, Deloitte Canada
S2E1 - Build, baby, build: Rethinking Canada’s backbone
Canada has long relied on a north-south economic model dominated by trade with the U.S.—but what happens when that foundation threatens to fracture?
In this episode, we go beyond the mantra of East-West to explore what that might actually look like in practical terms and what it will take to pull it off. The question isn’t whether Canada can become more self-sufficient—but how.
Speakers:
- Christine Healy, President & CEO, Northland Power
- Andrew Botterill, National Lead, Strategy Risk & Transactions, Energy, Resources & Industrials, Deloitte Canada
