Episode Five – Global Change & Everyday life

Episode 5: When Global Forces Hit Home

In Episode 5 of The Canadianist, we take the big ideas of demographics, geopolitics, and supply chains and bring them down to everyday life. Why do prices keep rising? Why does housing feel permanently strained? Why do jobs, healthcare, repairs, and basic services take longer than they used to?

This episode explains how aging populations, labor shortages, and a shifting global economy directly affect household costs, housing markets, employment, and availability of goods and services. These pressures aren’t random and they aren’t temporary. They’re the result of long-term global changes converging all at once.

If you’ve felt like the system is under strain but couldn’t quite explain why, this episode connects the dots and lays out what to expect as the world settles into a new economic normal.
