For the second time in as many elections, Pierre Poilievre will have to contend with an enormous number of opponents. After the Longest Ballot Committee organized to expand the list of names to 91 candidates in Carleton, they've now boosted their efforts to push the roster of candidates to over 200 ahead of the Battle River–Crowfoot byelection.Will it be the final straw before changes are made to the election laws? And what impact could it have on the race?This week on The Numbers, we delve into the absurd byelection in Alberta. We also discuss some of the latest federal polling, as well as a trio of provincial byelections added to the calendar in Prince Edward Island and Manitoba and a face-off between Bonnie Crombie and Nate Erskine-Smith that is brewing within the Ontario Liberal Party.

In this episode of On The Line, Matt Gurney speaks with two sharp political observers to take stock of where things stand across Canada — and how some leaders are adapting to the post-election landscape.This episode of On The Line is brought to you by Airbnb. If you've been following the pod the last few weeks, you're familiar by now with the fact that all the Airbnbs that could be converted into long-term homes account for only 0.6 per cent of Canada's housing stock – and Canada can't solve a housing crisis with less than one per cent of a solution.But did you know that 47 per cent of Airbnb hosts in Canada report that income from hosting has helped them stay in their homes?Learn more about the critical role Airbnb plays in helping Canadians get by at Airbnb.ca/closerlook.First up: veteran pollster and friend of the show John Wright joins Matt to look at how Canadians are feeling three months into Prime Minister Mark Carney's post-election tenure. What do the numbers say? Why are some Canadians especially grumpy? And why haven't the Conservatives really found their footing yet? Wright and Gurney also talk about Pierre Poilievre's absence from the conversation, and why Ontario Premier Doug Ford seems happy to wait it all out — for now.This episode of On The Line is also brought to you by the Métis Nation of Ontario. It's Penetanguishene in the 1860s. For generations, Métis families fished these waters. Métis grandparents taught grandkids to cast nets. Fathers packed crates bound for the trading post. Mothers salted the morning's catch. And the smell of lake water and woodsmoke became deeply embedded in memories. Every summer, Métis boats carved routes through Georgian Bay with persistence. Their Métis traditions and trade became the commerce that built Canada. Today, while Canadian families head north to the cottage to play, remember those who paddled north to build, and know that Métis communities continue the traditions that built Canada. To learn more, visit OntarioMetisFacts.com.Then: we're joined by Rob Shaw, a prolific British Columbia journalist and regular contributor to The Line, for a roundup of the latest from the west coast. The B.C. government has landed in hot water over a decision to deny a dying child access to medicine — and the political backlash has been swift. Meanwhile, even as concerns over public safety remain paramount, Premier David Eby keeps picking fights with Donald Trump. Is this smart politics, or just desperation? Rob breaks it down.All that and more on On The Line. Subscribe at ReadTheLine.ca, follow us on your favourite podcast app, and don't forget to leave us a nice review.

A deadline for a trade deal with the U.S. is looming, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre is trying to find a path back to the House of Commons, and the push to get big new nation-building projects going is hitting a sour note with some First Nations leaders. Our guest host Catherine Cullen unpacks it all with our national affairs panel: Stephanie Levitz from the Globe and Mail, Niigaan Sinclair from the Winnipeg Free Press, and CBC's Kathleen Petty.

Elias Makos starts the week with Dan Delmar, Co-founder of the content marketing firm TNKR Media and co-host of the podcast Inspiring Entrepreneurs Canada, and Anthony Koch, Former National Spokesperson for Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and current managing principal at AK Strategies. Montreal has fined a local church $2,500 for hosting a concert by controversial U.S. Christian musician Sean Feucht. We are only a couple of days away from the deadline outlined by U.S President Donald Trump to get a deal done between the U.S and Canada. Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a plan back in May to double the number of homes built annually in Canada to nearly 500 thousand. The team behind Just for Laughs Gags took to Reddit to warn the population that it has begun to record its 26th season in the city.

U.S. President Donald Trump has inked a new trade agreement with the European Union, as Canadians continue to wait for news ahead of this week's August 1st deadline. CTV National News correspondent Colton Praill joins guest host Tim Powers with the latest. On today's show: Instant analysis on the E.U. trade deal, and what it means for Canada-USA negotiations, with CTV U.S. political analyst Eric Ham. Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown discusses the federal government's decision to stop funding hotel rooms for asylum seekers. Political scientist Lori Turnbull analyzes the war of words between Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and The Longest Ballot Committee. The Daily Debrief Panel - featuring Sharan Kaur and Deirdra Tindale. Andrew Siegwart, the CEO of the Ontario Tourism Industry Association, discusses the impact of the Canada-U.S. trade war on the Summer travel season.

This week on Open Sources Guelph everybody is fighting! Our national and provincial leaders are gathered to strategize and fight back in a trade war, while the leader of the opposition (in exile) is fighting for his political life so that he can get back into the national debate. Meanwhile, we will talk to an area Indigenous leader who's helping to lead the fight against legislation they got no say in by taking two different levels of government to court. Can't we all just get along?! This Thursday, July 24, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Fifty Trades of Grey. At a meeting in Huntsville this week, Canada's First Ministers met with Prime Minister Mark Carney to talk about - what else? - the trade war with the United States. Donald Trump has made another one of his famous proclamations, 50 per cent tariffs will be put on Canadian goods starting August 1, but what can Canada do about it? That's a question no one can answer. Is there any way out of this mess, and is inter-provincial trade really the answer? Battle River Front. As Carney looks at getting one over on Trump, Pierre Poilievre is looking to get back into the House of Commons. His route back to the chamber is through a by-election in Battle River-Crowfoot, a riding the Conservative candidate won in April with 83 per cent, so easy, right? Not so fast, because about 200 people are crowding the ballot for the August 18 vote, and Poilievre can't show weakness before a January leadership review. Can Pierre take his perch back? Kill Bills. Last week, nine Ontario First Nations launched a constitutional challenge to both Bill 5 in Ontario and Bill C-5 nationally. The two omnibus bills make legislative short cuts for massive infrastructure projects, and they were passed without any consultation with First Nations leaders, who are now forcing the issue. This week, we're joined by one of those leaders, Chief Todd Cornelius from Oneida Nation of the Thames east of London, about the goals of the Constitutional challenge and the state of reconciliation in Canada. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

John Capobianco, a Conservative Bigshot, joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss the future of Canada under Pierre Poilievre's leadership. With four consecutive election losses, how can Poilievre revitalize his party and take it forward? John talks about the importance of a strong, united Canada and the steps the Conservative Party should take to address key issues like economic growth, trade, and provincial cooperation. As M.P.'s take their VERY LONG summer break, John discusses the need for a more active and accountable Parliament, where debates on Canada's future are crucial. Hosted on Acast.

On today's episode of The Candice Malcolm Show, Dragon's Den star and investor Brett Wilson makes a bold prediction: former Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault won't survive the year. Brett joins Candice to talk about how the Liberals are trying to reinvent themselves under Mark Carney — but can't seem to shake the Trudeau-era dogma that made them unappealing to Canadians in the first place. Also, Premier Danielle Smith's Alberta Next town halls are officially underway. Her panel is touring the province over the next two months, asking Albertans six big questions — including whether Alberta should withdraw from the Canada Pension Plan, take over immigration, or even lead a push to amend the Constitution. Candice and Brett break down the first two stops in Red Deer and Sherwood Park, where hundreds of attendees showed up to demand more autonomy — and in some cases, outright separation. One Red Deer resident told the panel: “There is one question, and one question only, that needs to be on a referendum: 'Do you support Alberta exiting Canadian confederation?'” Next, they discuss the Premiers meetings in Muskoka, Ontario, and Prime Minister Mark Carney's emergency meetings to discuss President Trump's tariffs. Finally, they discuss the longest ballot initiative and how nearly 200 candidates will be running in the upcoming by-election where Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre will run to regain a seat in the House of Commons after losing his Ottawa-area riding in the recent general election.

With an August 18 by-election looming in Alberta's conservative heartland, local independent candidate Bonnie Critchley is taking a stand for her neighbours against Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre, who has parachuted into the riding in hopes of getting a seat back in Parliament after being beaten in the election by Bruce Fanjoy in his Ottawa area riding of Carleton. As a retired combat veteran and horse breeder, Bonnie has built a centrist platform to represent the people of her home riding and unpacks her policies on the podcast.In a candid and straightforward interview, Bonnie addresses gun control, climate change, Alberta separation, the notion of becoming the 51st state, anger at Ottawa, human rights and speaks out against the Long Ballot Initiative protest in the by-election. Bonnie believes in Canadian unity and the importance of engaging with one another, despite our differences. She challenges not just Poilievre, but also Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and the destructive influences of the Trump regime. This is a call to action for voters who are tired of politics as usual, seeking a leader with integrity who will prioritize the community's needs over party lines.

Free For All Friday - Hour 1 Amanda Galbraith breaks down the biggest stories of the day with Canada's top newsmakers. On today's show: Prime Minister Carney’s new message on trade: Don’t expect a tariff-free trade deal by August 1st. We've got another depressing report on housing starts and homebuilder sentiments. We check in on Canada's housing crisis with Mike Moffatt. How important is Indigenous buy-in for major infrastructure projects? Karen Restoule, the Director of Indigenous Affairs and a Senior Fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, weighs in. The viral Coldplay couple: A PR nightmare for a CEO and his Head of HR, as an alleged affair meets the Internet.

Topic 4: Should we save the ostriches, or send them to Dr. Oz's house?

Pierre Poilievre (and, to be fair, most Canadian political pundits) may assume the northern Alberta riding of Battle River–Crowfoot is his guaranteed safe seat in the House of Commons—but Bonnie Critchley says not so fast. This veteran-turned-Independent candidate is gaining momentum in a riding long considered a Conservative stronghold, and she's hearing the same thing over and over: voters feel used and ignored. As Critchley puts it, there's growing resentment toward Poilievre and the political establishment that treats rural Alberta like a political pawn.In Episode 178, we look at why Poilievre's connection to his base may be fraying, what internal rifts inside the Conservative Party could mean for his leadership, and how this by-election may (or may not) send a shockwave through the national political landscape.Don't forget to like, follow and subscribe across our channels!

C-5 summit in Gatineau could set the the tone of government-Indigenous relations — for the rest of Mark Carney's time as Prime Minister. Brazil's Congress passes bill that drastically weakens the country's environmental safeguards. Canada's largest federal public sector union disputes Pierre Poilievre's account of why he lost his riding in the last election. United States senate passes President Donald Trump's recessions package, paving way for cuts to foreign aid and public broadcasting. Wildfire evacuees in Manitoba waiting for when they can return home. New report by Canadian Institute for Health Information finds more Canadians getting hurt by e-scooters. "Pretty Little Baby" singer Connie Francis dies at 87.

On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice discusses why she is homeschooling her young children and why she prioritizes getting them outside to play in nature. Candice is then joined by Ginny Roth, a partner at Crestview Strategy and Pierre Poilievre's former Director of Communications. Ginny talks about her new op/ed in the Hub discussing the need for school choice in Ontario. According to her research, enrolment in Ontario public schools has only increased by 1.2% over the past decade, compared to a 22% increase in independent schools during that same period – despite the province offering no support to parents who make this decision. Candice outlines the total woke takeover of education in Ontario – the poisonous gender ideology, the hateful critical race theory, the radical climate catastrophe crowd, and the perverse cultural relativism – and discusses how Canadians oppose these radical measures in schools. Ginny adds that rigorous math and phonics lessons are also being removed from some schools, and that children are not being adequately prepared for their future. Why has this happened? Candice asks point blank: How has this happened under a so-called “conservative” government? Ginny gives the best explanation to date about the institutional takeover by extreme activists, and the lack of political will inside the Ford government to push back. Next, they discuss the disturbing rise in anti-Jewish hatred in Canadian schools, which is causing many Jewish families to leave Canada. When Jews are fleeing your country because of rampant, institutionalized intimidation, you know you have a real problem. Candice and Ginny discuss this problem and what can be done to combat it.

Pierre Poilievre Slams Immigration Policy, Says We Need More People Leaving Than ComingBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-baloney-the-richie-baloney-show--4036781/support.

U.S. imposes 30% tariffs on goods imported from Mexico, E.U. to go into effect August 1. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre says Prime Minister Mark Carney erred in imposing deadline on US trade talks. A preliminary report says fuel switches cut off before June Air India crash that killed 260. Russian, North Korean foreign ministers meet as Pyongyang backs Ukraine war. The family of an Afghan man detained in a U-S immigration detention centre is calling on Ottawa to act.

Once again, U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to slap more tariffs on Canada — and Pierre Poilievre has thoughts. The Conservative leader speaks with Catherine Cullen in his first national English interview with CBC since becoming party leader to discuss how he'd tackle the Canada-U.S. trade war differently and why he thinks he deserves a second shot at holding a seat in the House of Commons.Then, national security expert Wesley Wark explains why Trump's latest move should elicit a bigger response from north of the border.Plus, the new head of the Royal Canadian Air Force, Lt.-Gen. Jamie Speiser-Blanchet, tells The House her priorities for the new role in a “volatile and uncertain” time.Finally, as Prime Minister Mark Carney's chief of staff and the new Clerk of the Privy Council officially take the reins of the federal government, Janice Charette, a former clerk who assisted with the Carney transition, and Ian Brodie, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, lift the curtain on the high-pressure roles and examine the challenges of executing the prime minister's ambitious agenda.This episode features the voices of:Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party of CanadaWesley Wark, senior fellow at the Centre for International Governance InnovationLt.-Gen. Jamie Speiser-Blanchet, commander of the Royal Canadian Air ForceJanice Charette, former Clerk of the Privy CouncilIan Brodie, former chief of staff to Prime Minister Stephen Harper

President Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 35% tariff on all Canadian imports, citing fentanyl concerns. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney called the tariffs a financial attack, while opposition leader Pierre Poilievre warned they would hurt both economies. The move could strain already fragile U.S.-Canada relations and drive up prices on both sides of the border.
