Canada's new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, is about to shake things up with an energy and sustainability agenda that might just change the landscape as we know it. Transitioning from his role as the former governor of the Bank of England to steering one of the world's largest economies, Carney is pushing for a bold shift towards renewable energy and sustainable finance. This isn't just about saving the planet—he sees it as a massive economic opportunity. But with Canada heavily reliant on its oil and gas sector, the big question is whether this agenda is visionary leadership or pie-in-the-sky thinking.

Join me, Brigham McCown, in this episode of Charged Conversations, where we take a comprehensive look at Carney's strategy, its potential impact on Canada's economy, and the possibility of a North American energy union. As we dissect the nation's economic challenges, including high inflation and job scarcity, we weigh the likelihood of Carney's vision becoming a reality. Can Canada pivot from its resource-driven economy to leading innovation in renewable energy? Tune in to explore this pivotal moment in Canada's energy landscape and its ramifications for North America.

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
