Canada's Comfortable Bubble Nobody Wants to Question

Canada's Comfortable Bubble Nobody Wants to Question

Canadian consumer choices rarely get challenged from the inside, and that is exactly the problem. This conversation starts with recycling bags in Merrickville and ends up somewhere much bigger: why do Canadians keep accepting the options they are handed instead of asking for better ones?

From the cars that keep getting larger while European streets fill with variety, to recycling pickup that changes completely depending on which province you happen to live in, to dental hygiene access that works entirely differently depending on where your benefits apply, the gaps are real and the questions are not being asked loudly enough.

Ryan O'Donnell also shares what happened when he finally made it to a tropical beach for the first time, and why the airport on the way there was a completely different story.

Topics: Canadian consumer choices, car selection Canada, recycling Canada, dental care provinces, asking better questions
