Flight attendants defy back to work orders, Alberta byelection, "YouTubification" of streaming, and more

About this episode

Thousands of unionized Air Canada flight attendants were supposed to be back work. But they are still on the picket lines in defiance of the federal government's return to work orders - and the airline remains grounded. That's leaving many to wonder - what comes next?


Also: Voters in the Alberta riding of Battle River-Crowfoot will decide if Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre gets a seat back in the House of Commons on Monday. You'll hear why this byelection is unlike any before.


And: There's a shift happening in the war for your eyeballs. Streaming platforms like Netflix are starting to realize that the big stars aren't in Hollywood - they're on YouTube. And they're bringing in big-name content creators to grow their subscribers.


Plus: Saskatchewan's bid to keep its coal plants, Sudan's humanitarian crisis, and more.
