Justin Trudeau has acknowledged it was the burgeoning calls from his caucus that ultimately convinced him it was time to step down. What is his legacy as prime minister? And does his departure give the Liberals a chance to refresh the brand before the next election? We ask: Tonda MacCharles, parliamentary bureau reporter for the Toronto Star; Jeffrey Simpson, for more than three decades, a national affairs columnist with the Globe and Mail; and Ontario's 25th premier Kathleen Wynne, who now teaches public policy at Victoria University and Trinity College at the University of Toronto.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Incoming U.S. president Donald Trump likely has at least some Canadians wondering, what if we did become the 51st state? How would our lives be different? Could we maintain our distinctive and different customs? For insight into this hypothetical, we welcome Laura Dawson, executive director of the Future Borders Coalition, a self-described bi-national organization promoting a cohesive vision of the U.S.-Canada border based on the principles of efficiency, safety, and security; Jeffrey Simpson, for more than three decades, the national affairs columnist at the Globe and Mail, and author of eight books; and Kathleen Wynne, 25th premier of Ontario, now teaching public policy at the University of Toronto's Victoria and Trinity Colleges.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Justin Trudeau's poll numbers have been bad for a while. The Liberals have lost two crucial by-elections and are trailing behind the Conservatives in seat projections. They just lost the support of the NDP. The shine seems to have completely come off the nine-year-old government. And yet, Trudeau remains defiant. Why?The Globe's Shannon Proudfoot set out to determine why, in the face of increasingly long odds, some politicians can't seem to read the writing piling up on the wall. She spoke to former Ontario premier Kathleen Wynne and a pollster on the disastrous 1993 Progressive Conservative campaign to find answers.This episode originally aired on October 4, 2024.Questions?

Libby and Clayton discus how these numbers paint a stark picture of the gun violence crisis.

In this episode I am interviewing a returning guest to the show to examine the economics surrounding Ontario's foray into renewable energy.  As is typical in divisive topics such as this, the government has made it very difficult to track down the actual costs of ideologically driven policies such as Ontario's 2009 Green Energy Act that brough in juicy Feed In Tarriffs on 20 year contracts for renewable energy to kick start the green economy. The act was brought in by Liberal premiere Dalton McGuinty and aggressively pursued by his successor in that office, Kathleen Wynne who was driven out of office by angry voters in the 2018 election, losing official party status. A key element of that loss was her mishandling of the energy transition, the privatization of Hydro One, and the disastrous costs downloaded onto voters. Our guest today is investigating the costs and benefits of renewable energy in Ontario's nuclear and hydro-dominated electrical grid. Edgardo Sepulveda is a telecommunications and electricity economist with the last several with his consulting firm in Toronto, Canada. He was born in Chile and has an MA in Economics. As part of his civic policy-related engagement, he also writes about inequality, COVID-19 and other issues, including at the Progressive Economics Forum.

On this episode of the Alex Pierson Podcast, our host Alex Pierson first starts off looking at Doug Ford...and his spending habits. A new study from the Frasier Institute shows that he's actually not as fiscally conservative as he would like you to believe. In fact, he's even more liberal with spending than his predecessor Kathleen Wynne! Ben Eisen, a Sr. Fellow in Feiscal and Provincial Prosperity Studies with The Frasier Institue joins Alex to explain how he got these results, and what this could mean for a future provincial election. Then, to address the rising and ongoing housing crisis Alex speaks with the owner and founder of Tiny Tiny Homes, Ryan Donais. Ryan tells Alex about his recent invention, a custom-built Tiny home built onto a custom bike...offering a custom and necessary lifestyle improvement for those struggling with homelessness. Ryan and Alex talk about how this idea came about, how much time it takes to build even one of these and when we can expect them on the streets. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail and Uber Canada.We're bringing together 2 people —  “The Interns” — who mean a helluva lot to me in both a professional and personal sense. As mentors, colleagues, advisors and friends.Elly Alboim and Bill Fox are here!Both Elly and Bill are now 2-time Herle Burly guests. An honorific I'm assuming will go right to the top of their CVs. But listen up to their bona fides: Elly was a journalist for the CBC for almost a quarter century, before becoming Parliamentary Bureau Chief for TV news and National Political Editor. He was a senior advisor to Paul Martin as well as Kathleen Wynne. Today he's an Associate Professor of Journalism at Carleton and a Principal at Earnscliffe Strategies. And he wrote a fantastic piece on today's topic, called “Eliminating the CBC”, which you can check out at Air Quotes Media. Bill began as working journalist and became Ottawa and Washington bureau chief for The Toronto Star. He then turned his eye toward politics as Director of Communications for Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. Today, he's got about 18 academic degrees from small shops like Harvard and Carleton, and he's a leading analyst of media and communication. His latest book is “Trump, Trudeau, Tweets, Truth: A Conversation” which is a fantastic read.We're going dive into a topic that's become quite the political battleground over the last little while: The role and importance of CBC news … How the news division is performing … the case for dismantling … other legitimate journalistic alternatives … but first, media coverage of China election interference.Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.
