A question mark over how Canada's Prime Minister, Mark Carney, will perform. The Liberal Party won the country's election yesterday, beating the Conservative party, and locking down a fourth term. The win means Carney will keep hold of the top job he took over from Justin Trudeau six weeks ago. Globe and Mail Ottawa Bureau Chief Robert Fife told Mike Hosking he has no experience in retail policy, but headed the banks of Canada and England. He says given these credentials, he should do okay, but there's been no real opportunity to see him perform as Prime Minister. There's also doubts Carney will be able to secure a majority government, as he's currently sitting at 169 seats of the 172 needed. Fife doesn't think he'll get up to this number, but may reach 170.

On this episode of The Alex Pierson Podcast, our host Alex Pierson first is joined by the Ottawa Bureau Chief for the Globe & Mail, Robert Fife. Fife has published a new piece which highlights that former Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan received "political donations" for directing Canadian troops to specifically airlift a group of Afghan Sikhs out of Kabul when the Taliban retook the country. Robert and Alex talk about what Minister Sajjan has to say in his defence, and why this excuse left hundreds of Afghan interpreters stranded in what quickly became hostile territory. Next, Alex and Warren Kinsella, the President of The Daisy Group and former strategist for Jean Chrétien dive into what seems to be dissent growing within the Liberal ranks. Prime Minister Trudeau has chosen to avoid the Calgary Stampede and subsequently, a caucus meeting in Alberta. But could this be to avoid these MPs calling for his removal? Alex and Warren also turn their attention south of the border and discuss what the Democratic party will do if President Biden either chooses to run...or step aside. Finally, the US Department of Justice offered Boeing a plea bargain for violating previous agreements to improve its manufacturing process and safety, which resulted in at least 2 separate plane crashes killing a total of 346 people. Alex speaks with the attorney representing the victims' family members, Robert Cillford, who is a Sr. Partner at Clifford Law Offices. Robert tells Alex why he believes the DOJ offered this deal out of cowardice, and how this will only further hurt the families of the victims instead of help at all.

If the questions are "Who knew what, and when?", then Canadian voters aren't the answer. Not only have recent reports shed light on Chinese attempts to influence the 2019 and 2021 elections, but The Globe and Mail Tuesday reported that these attempts stretch back to 2014-2015, after Justin Trudeau became Liberal leader, but before his party rose to power.There are surely more revelations to come ... but why are Canadians finding out this way, through leaked bombshells in the press, instead of learning about it at the time, or at least finding out now through a public inquiry? What should we expect to learn in the coming days? And will we ever get transparency on this from Trudeau and his government?GUEST: Robert Fife, Ottawa Bureau Chief, The Globe and Mail
