The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge · Moore-Butts: What Happens "Inside The Room"? · 15 Sep 2026 podcast

about what is in the middle, Canada's quote net interest, best interest. matched

And that's the job of the people who are in the room that Jerry describes. matched

And so for our government on the Trans-Pacific Partnership, we had Stephen Harper who chaired it and led it. matched

And then there were five ministers. matched

There was myself as Minister of Industry because of matched

Um, well, the second largest department, the government of Canada, plus all the intellectual property stuff and the industrial footprint and all of that minister of finance, minister of agriculture, um, uh, procurement was an oil treasury board. matched

Uh, and of course the minister of trade or foreign affairs would also be involved. matched

So, um, matched

Five or six ministers thereabouts. matched

And we would get, you know, calls that we have. matched

And this is, I think, a major distinction between all of those other approaches and then Trump 45 and especially Trump 47. matched

The difference between Trump 45 and 47, as Jerry described, is that, you know, you've gone from. matched

what one would hope would be a normal relationship to one that is just completely bananas, right? matched

Like in our government, you would have, we'd get a call, you'd say, well, our, you know, Ambassador Hillman or Crystal Hillman is back with her folks and they're going to brief us on what happened with their bilateral conversations with the Japanese with regard to what their big, because Japan was the big add-on for Canada and the Trans-Pacific Partnership. matched

And we would go through and they'd say, well, this is what's happening on pork. matched

This is what's happening on intellectual property. matched

This is what's happening on language. matched

And then we would give them a mandate and then they would go back to the table and they would come back in a month or so. matched

What's crazy about Trump 47, in my view, and I think Jerry framed it well, is that it seems like, you know, when you go into a car dealership and you say, I think I want that car. matched

And they say, OK, well, and you work with the sales guy at the front who seems like it's Jameson Greer, probably. matched
