MBP Intelligence Briefing
The MBP Intelligence Briefing gets past the headlines into the policy shaping Canada: the legislation, the budgets, the regulatory decisions, and the politics driving them. Completely free and completely ad-free. Hosted by Shannon Phillips, the show features weekly conversations with Ken Boessenkool, Tyler Meredith, and Ben Woodfinden, along with monthly guests bringing a fresh perspective from business, media, or public policy. The panel comes at this from across the political spectrum: Liberal, Conservative, and NDP, because politics is partisan, and policy doesn’t get made in a vacuum. No punditry. Just the read from people who’ve written policy, not just commented on it, from cabinet tables, platform rooms, and comms shops. Expect roundtable discussions that break down what a policy actually does, not just what it’s called, and in-depth interviews on the fiscal, trade, and regulatory decisions shaping business and government.
Every Friday, Shannon Phillips, Tyler Meredith, Ken Boessenkool, and Ben Woodfinden break down the politics and policy decisions shaping Canada - free, completely ad-free, with no sponsor reads and no commercial breaks. The panel connects the policy being made to the politics behind it, drawing on perspectives from across the spectrum - Liberal, Conservative, and NDP - for the people in business and government who have to act on what's decided.
Politics is partisan, and policy doesn't get made in a vacuum, so the panel doesn't pretend otherwise. This isn't punditry. It's the read from people who've written policy, not just commented on it: from cabinet tables, platform rooms, and comms shops.
Expect roundtable discussions that break down what a policy actually does, not just what it's called, and in-depth interviews on the fiscal, trade, and regulatory decisions shaping business and government. Roughly once a month, the panel is joined by a guest from business, media, or public policy for a deeper conversation on a single issue.
