Episode description
The Liberal Party of Canada is under immense pressure to select a new leader in record time — two months. Parliament is prorogued while Trump’s threats over tariffs and Canadian sovereignty ramp up. Who will actually want to lead a party in turmoil into what could be a massive defeat in the next federal election? Host Kathleen Petty is joined by Ian Brodie, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Stephen Harper; Martha Hall Findlay, who ran against Justin Trudeau in the last Liberal party leadership race; and Corey Hogan from the Strategists podcast.
