Ep 103: It's not the people's People's Party

PolitiCoast

About this episode

Maxime Bernier's launched his new party: The People's Party of Canada and everyone's already made the requisite PP jokes. Meanwhile in Ontario a court ruling invalidated Doug Ford's attempt to halve the size of Toronto's City Council, so naturally he is invoking the Notwithstanding Clause to overrule the courts. And one former BC premier decided to weigh in with her thoughts on the matter. Everything is seriously normal in Canadian politics. In our quick takes we cover Burnaby's spending on the TransMountain pipline fights, the UBCM, the provincial rent increase and possible renter's rebate, a non-profit using an NDP MLA's office for partisan purposes, how the federal NDP are doing and why Saudi Arabia doesn't want as many of our light armoured vehicles. This cut has a shortened version of our quick takes. For the full length discussion, become a supporter at patreon.com/politicoast Full shownotes at politicoast.ca
