Manage episode 473234344 series 3605316
Trump looms large over Canada’s 2024 federal election.
With recent polling showing a dramatic surge for Mark Carney’s Liberal Party, Canadian voters face a critical decision: who can best navigate the existential economic threat posed by a potential second Trump presidency?
Political journalist John Ivison joins Stewart Muir to offer sharp insights into the rapidly shifting dynamics between Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and Liberal challenger Mark Carney. What began as a seemingly insurmountable Conservative advantage has quickly evolved into a neck-and-neck contest.
Carbon taxes. Emissions caps. Energy exports. These are the defining issues of the upcoming 2025 federal election. Ivison and Muir break down how President Donald Trump’s aggressive trade war is reshaping Canada’s energy debate—especially in Alberta and Quebec—in unprecedented ways.
The stakes are high. Canada is at a crossroads.
