About this episode
Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and chair of Abacus Data, join Sean Speer to examine the current state of federal politics. They analyze Prime Minister Mark Carney's sustained popularity and Pierre Poilievre's challenges in an environment hostile to opposition leaders. They also discuss why rising NDP support isn't benefiting Conservatives, and strategic missteps made by Poilievre.
In the second half of the show, they focus on Carney's unprecedented success in building cooperative relationships with premiers across partisan lines during a period of external threats to Canada.
