Summary

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding extending their ceasefire and its geopolitical implications. They examine how reopening the Strait of Hormuz could benefit Canadian energy exports while questioning what Iran's apparent diplomatic victory signals about U.S. global leadership. They then explore whether this agreement emboldens adversaries like China and Russia, and raises concerns about President Trump potentially redirecting his focus toward North America, including renewed pressure on Canada.
