The Breakdown - Episode 5.37 - Thomas Lukaszuk
About this episode
The Honorable Thomas Lukaszuk served a decade and a half in the Alberta Legislature with multiple Conservative Governments and under 5 premiers. He served as an MLA, a Minister and as the Deputy Premier and observed Danielle Smiths rise to power as leader of the opposition and her fall from it when she crossed the floor.
In this no holds barred conversation, we sit down with Thomas to hear why he is so alarmed by the prospect of Smith being elected in May that he has not only endorsed the NDP, but he is even campaigning with them!
