The world lost a huge inspiration and an inspiring speaker recently. Rest In Power, Rev. Jesse Jackson. Hear my thoughts on his 1984 speech at the Democratic National Convention. (Parts 2 and beyond are on YouTube.)

Welcome to 2026, speakers! Welcome to the latest feature, Speech of the Fortnight. Every 2 weeks, I’ll share my reaction to a speech that caught my eyes and ears.

First up: The Darling of Davos, Canadian PM Mark Carney.
