Economist Jim Stanford, Director of the Centre for Future Work, recently reviewed 3 detailed economic analysis done by three other economist to put together an easy to access and understand report on the catastrophic impact that separatism would have on Alberta's economy. There's a lot in this conversation, including the divergence of oil and gas profits and oil and gas jobs, but the bottom line of all of it is that it's the average Albertan who would get hurt the most, and that's with so much left that is utterly unpredictable!

What do an Alberta online university, a union grievance and a parent being faced with the choice of abandoning their child or amputating their child's legs have in common? In 7 years of doing interviews, this is easily one of the most bonkers ones we have ever done! We sit down with Dave Powell of the Athabasca University Faculty Association to make sense of their recent post https://aufa.ca/blog/2026/7/23/athabasca-university-forces-professor-to-choose-between-her-job-her-family-or-her-childs-legs and explain what in the heck is even happening!

For almost two years, Recovery and Rehabilitation Advocate Guy Felicella has been the subject of an online campaign surrounding a criminal case from three decades ago. It started with some very heavy handed questions from a National Post opinion writer and has only escalataed in that time. In this Breakdown exclusive, we sit down with Guy for a sit down where he tells his side of the story for the first time from start to finish. But the conversation doesn't stop there, because this extremely unnecessary situation forces some very real questions about how society, and especially those involved in anti-harm reduction work, treat recovery and rehabilitation. We have also published a companion piece on our substack that it well worth the time to read! To get tickets to our August 29th live show in Calgary, visit www.thebreakdownablive.ca !

With Treaty Chiefs having voted unanimously in a non-confidence vote in Danielle SMith's UCP, separatism on the rise and over racism towards First Nations only growing more bold, what can be done? We're extremely excited to present this conversation with First Nations Scholar and Associate Professor from the University of Alberta Dr. Matthew Wildcat, which not only gets into what First Nations can do to better address some of these issues, but also offers some critical insight into the history of Alberta and Canada that has brought us to this moment in time.

It's time to re-up this very, very special episode! Originally from June of 2025, this episode seems to have only become more relevant as Alberta has escalated tensions towards Treaty Chiefs and the province has been set careening to a separatism referendum by Danielle Smith and the UCP. With relations between the government of Alberta and First Nations at an arguable low with Treaty Chiefs expressing deep frustration and hurt from the way that the province is treating First Nations and the Treaties, we are extremely excited to present this extremely important conversation with Mi'kmaq poet Rebecca Thomas! We are extremely grateful to finally make this conversation a reality and it cuts to the core of what Canadian Identity is and what it could look like. For The Breakdown, this conversation is a love letter to Canada that is also based in accountability, and it cuts to the core of what Canadian Identity is and what it could look like.
