Mentor Sessions Ep. 033: Richard Dias on US vs Canadian Economy, Marco Outlook, Fiscal Problems, and implications for Bitcoin.


Is the Canada economy on the brink of collapse amid US economy divergence, currency debasement, and stagnant productivity growth in Canada? In this eye-opening Bitcoin interview on BTC Sessions, global macro strategist Richard Dias from IceCap Asset Management and co-host of The Loonie Hours reveals the harsh realities facing the Canada economy versus the thriving US economy. Discover why economic divergence between Canada and US is widening due to reckless fiscal policy in Canada, failed productivity growth strategies, and anti-energy policies crippling natural resources. Richard breaks down currency debasement trends, the real estate market in Canada teetering on instability, skyrocketing gold prices as a red flag for global instability, and how Bitcoin as money offers a hedge against fiat failures. This episode delivers unfiltered macro wisdom. Don't miss why Richard sees more pain ahead for Canada, why it serves as a warning to the US, and how Bitcoin fits into the solution—watch now!
