Published on September 17, 2026
Canadian politicians have spent this week pitching plans for major projects to foreign investors at a summit in Toronto. The first-of-its-kind Canada Investment Summit brought together federal and provincial ministers, investors and Canadian CEOs with the plan to unleash nearly $500 billion in new investments in Canada. Those are the topics for this week’s Truth & Politics panel. Joining host Dennis Ward to discuss are Jennifer Laewetz of Paskwâw Strategies and Alessia Passafiume with the Canadian Press.
