Doug Ford offers the bluntest assessment in MeidasTouch's most-watched new upload: "We're not going back to the way things were, and we need to plan accordingly." The Ontario premier is talking about Canada's relationship with the United States, the subject bringing the largest audience to the channel's new releases this week.

Ben Meiselas builds the segment around a U.S. Embassy Ottawa fact sheet titled "Monitoring Canadian Activities in U.S. Politics." He criticizes its accusations of Canadian election interference, then brings in press-conference footage of Ford and Prime Minister Mark Carney. Carney defends Canada's retaliatory trade actions as protection for Canadian jobs, while a CBC Power & Politics panel challenges the embassy document's characterization of advocacy as interference. The upload has drawn nearly half a million views.

Across fifteen uploads, the channel also covered Trump's Iran rhetoric, protests and the approaching midterms. An interview with House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries gives the election coverage a direct guest conversation, focused on Democrats' effort to regain the House. That episode currently has the fastest daily viewing pace among MeidasTouch's active videos, followed by the Canada segment.

The wider channel added about 58 million views over seven days, the largest weekly gain among the nearby political-commentary channels listed here. Benny Johnson also had a substantial viewing week; The Young Turks' daily viewing is running well above its usual level. MeidasTouch's own daily views are more than twice their typical pace, while its subscriber total remained unchanged. For this week's new uploads, the most-watched subject was the dispute across the northern border.
