First on the list of Paul Wells’s 4 Rules of Canadian Politics: “For any given situation, Canadian politics will tend toward the least exciting possible outcome.” In an election marked by foreign interference, an unelected newcomer leading the incumbent party, and annexation fears, what does “least exciting” even look like?
Journalist and aforementioned rule-maker Paul Wells joins Jesse to review possible outcomes of the snap federal election.

And we’re off to the races! It’s time for the matchup, and election, of a generation. Newly minted Prime Minister Mark Carney is taking on former front-runner Pierre Poilievre on April 28th. It’s a 5-week campaign. In the backdrop of a trade war, Trump’s annexation threats, And almost 10 long years of Liberal leadership.
For over a year, Poilievre pretty much held a 20-point lead. A landslide Poilievre win wasn't just possible, it felt inevitable. But now? The game has changed. Somehow, against all odds, the Liberals have clawed their way back to the top. Host Noor Azrieh sits down with conservative strategist Amanda Galbraith and progressive strategist Jordan Leichnitz to dissect what went so wrong for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives.
And the latest on, Mark Carney’s long-awaited seat announcement coupled with the ousting of Liberal MP Chandra Arya, and Premier Danielle Smith’s untimely appearance on Breitbart.

Is AI slop the ultimate weapon for foreign interference? Or are we spiraling into another internet-fueled moral panic?
Last week several AI-generated photos of Mark Carney and Ghislaine Maxwell looking chummy went viral. It was easy to spot the fake, but it raised an important question: should we be worried about AI in this election?
Ryan Broderick, author of the Garbage Day newsletter, and host of his own podcast Panic World, doesn’t think so.

Take your pick: censoring, banning, removing, or “weeding.” However you want to describe it, Canadians are pulling books from library shelves. The books in question range from The Handmaid's Tale, Gender Queer: A Memoir, to the works of Dr. Seuss and Roald Dahl.
The drive to rid our shelves, particularly school library shelves, of books comes from both left and right. Both sides censor. You can frame their motivation as opposition to woke indoctrination, or you could call it diversifying the cannon.
But does it really matter what you can or can not access with your library card when your phone can give you, or your child, access to almost anything? With all that “anything” implies. And if you’ve taken the time to read this far you’re an exception. People are reading less and less. So does any of this matter? According to Ira Wells, author of On Book Banning it does. For him it’s central to art, crucial to democracy, and fundamental to our basic respect for each other, and of course, our children.

Canada is deep in the trenches of a trade war with the United States. After U.S. President Trump unpaused the 25% tariffs on all Canadian imports, all hell has broken loose: the federal government has fired back, provincial leaders are firing shots of their own, and more threats have been made - and then walked back - by the White House. All this, while Canadians are caught in the middle. What sense can we make from the mudslinging? If the chaos unfolding only covers one week of this dispute, what could possibly come next?
Host Noor Azrieh catches up on the longest week in Canadian politics with Max Fawcett, lead columnist for the National Observer. Together, they sift through the madness, and they argue whether or not Canada’s new, un-elected prime minister, Mark Carney, is up for the task of wartime leadership.

When Trudeau prorogued Parliament 26 bills were binned. Bills are the democratic process made concrete and the laws that they can turn into are the end product of the whole political machine. They decide whether you have the right to die by choice. They decide what you can and cannot say. They tell you whether or not you can go back to work or not because you can or cannot afford to send your kid to daycare.
Each bill is the end result of years of campaigning, research, fundraising, debates, and compromise. So, multiply that by 26, then throw it all out.
What bills were trashed? Are they gone forever? What should come back and what should stay in the bin?
Jesse sorts the trash with conservative pundit and former Communications Director for Pierre Poilievre’s leadership campaign, Ginny Roth, as well as Katherine Scott from the Canadian Centre for Political Action, and digital law expert Michael Geist from the University of Ottawa.

CORRECTION: In an earlier version of this episode, producer James Nicholson suggests reports of the number of USMCA-compliant goods imported from Canada to the United States are between 62% and 95%. The number reported is actually between 38% and 95%; the CBC reported Canada-imported good to the U.S. could be as high as 62% non-compliant. The episode was edited to remove the mention of this range.

For the first time since 2021, the Liberals are beating the Conservatives in a recent poll. We’ll find out on March 9th if Carney is officially sticking around for the long haul. And then? He’s going to be the Prime Minister - at least for a little while. Carney-mania is going around - is it real? Or seriously overblown? Is he Canada's Kamala Harris - mild, overhyped, and fated to lose - or a serious contender? Host Noor Azrieh and Luke Savage try to diagnose what's behind Carney-mania– how a socially conscious banker became the man of the moment.
And the latest, on the ongoing saga of Trump’s tariffs. Also, King Charles’s sit-down with PM Justin Trudeau over “matters of importance” to Canadians. And BREAKING NEWS, Donald Trump doesn't like Chrystia Freeland or Pierre Poilievre.

It's so normal to complain about the CBC that it's hard to imagine that one day, maybe one day soon, there may no longer be a CBC to complain about. The Conservatives are campaigning on defunding it. The Mother Corp. itself can’t seem to figure out which way is up, particularly when it comes to television ratings. Sure, radio still pulls in the numbers, but what is the future of radio itself?
So, is CBC f*cked, like f*cked as in doomed? How do we unf*ck it? F*ck if I know. So we’re asking you, dear listener, how to fix it. The lines are open caller…

The Arctic is quickly becoming the center of a geopolitical shitstorm. We’re talking power, resources, and territory at stake. And everyone wants a piece of it. Donald Trump floated taking Greenland and Canada to make his claim. But he’s not the only one. Russia’s making moves. So is China. And Canada? Politicians, left and right, are talking about it. Host Noor Azrieh sits down with Gavin John, a freelance journalist embedded in the Arctic, and asks, what’s really at stake for Canada in the Arctic? Is this frozen tundra our greatest vulnerability or our most valuable asset?
And the latest on, the crash and burn of Liberal candidate Ruby Dhalla, and PM Justin Trudeau’s Ukraine visit. Oh, and don’t forget the Ontario election.

Has everybody lost their minds? Are we buying guns and deploying troops and making plans to fend off a U.S. invasion? Are some of us pre-emptively surrendering, trying to be the first to bend a knee and curry favour with our inevitable orange overlord? What happened to our steely northern resolve? We’re supposed to survey the histrionics of our melodramatic American neighbours, and then we make measured, sober, judicious decisions. When did we forget how to do that?
Maybe right now we need a bit of dad-like, prairie common sense. Maybe what we need is a bit of Preston Manning.
You know the name, or did you forget about Manning and how Reform roared out of the West to reshape Parliament and the conservative movement? He may come across as a Prairie-land Mr. Rogers, a local pastor who happened to be in Parliament. But the truth is, if you want to understand populism, particularly populism in Canada, Manning just might be your man. Populism is not a dirty word to him.
