After a week filled with threats from the US and maneuvers by individuals looking to fracture Alberta from the rest of Canada, we find ourselves at a crossroads. As Team Canada competes in the World Cup, Prime Minister Mark Carney steps forward with promising economic news—yet the declarations of unity from Pierre Poilievre and Premier Danielle Smith ring hollow amidst the chaos.Join host Laura Babcock and guest Douglas Connors from the True North Eager Beaver podcast as they delve into this critical moment for our country.

Following The Decibel's analysis of a one-on-one interview with Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, listeners wrote in and asked for an uncut interview to hear the opposition leader in his own words. This is the one-hour, full-length conversation with Poilievre, recorded on May 15, 2026. The interview has been edited for audio quality.

Derek Fildebrandt, Nigel Hannaford and Cory Morgan break down whether Danielle Smith is moving to purge independence supporters from the UCP, Pierre Poilievre's pitch to Alberta federalists, and the unrest in Northern Ireland after a brutal migrant attack in Belfast.

In the latest episode of The Line Podcast, recorded on June 12th, 2026, Matt Gurney and Jen Gerson begin with an update from Alberta. Jen reviews Pierre Poilievre's recent speech on why Alberta belongs in Canada. She liked it, with some caveats. Matt was somewhat more encouraged. He also has a few sharp words for Liberals who seem determined to police the boundaries of acceptable federalism. His view is simple: if people are defending Canada, let them defend Canada. Not every argument for national unity needs to come packaged with Liberal talking points. From Toronto, Matt also reflects on a genuine tragedy this week — a police officer killed in the line of duty while confronting a problem that had been allowed to fester for far too long. It's difficult to discuss without emotion. In his view, it never should have ended this way. But, alas, it was always going to: even if the exact tragedy was unforeseen, a tragedy was inevitable. This episode is brought to you by Cameco. In nuclear energy, timelines and costs matter. Incomplete designs carry real risk of delays and cost overruns. That's why the AP1000 reactor is the right choice for Canada: it is already operating today and ready now to deliver the power we need, with 100 percent Canadian ownership and strong participation from Canadian suppliers.

The AP1000 reactor is the only option that delivers.To learn more, visit ap1000.cameco.com.The hosts then take a very different turn. In what may be the strangest segment of the year, Jen reimagines 250 years of Canada-U.S. relations as a raunchy romantic comedy full of love, betrayal, heartbreak, and, yes, sex. Video viewers can watch Matt become increasingly horrified as the bit unfolds — not because he disagrees with the analysis, but because he finds himself unable to refute it.This episode is also brought to you by BioCanRx, a federally funded, not-for-profit Canadian research network that specializes in bringing Canadian cancer immunotherapy research from the lab all the way to patients in clinical trials in Canada. Immunotherapy is about assisting your immune system in identifying unhealthy cells –– especially cancer –– that have found a way to evade detection. One way researchers are doing this is through something called CAR T. They draw your blood, isolate one type of your immune cells –– T-Cells –– and use a virus to inject genetic instructions that cause them to grow new receptors designed specifically to find and destroy your particular cancer. In one of the 16 trials BioCanRx funds based on Canadian technology, CLIC-01, the median number of months remaining for patients with late-stage leukemia and lymphoma tripled. Some have been cancer free for years.You'll hear more over the summer. For now, go to BioCanRx.com to learn moreAfter that, the hosts wrap up with a discussion about children and social media. Both agree that kids probably shouldn't be spending their lives online. Their concern is that any attempt by the government to solve that problem could easily create several new ones. If recent experience is any guide, they aren't especially confident Ottawa can regulate this area without making a mess of it.All that and more in the latest episode of The Line Podcast.

More polls are showing some softening support for Mark Carney and the Liberals, while the NDP moves into double-digits. But the trend line isn't conclusive — except when it comes to the Conservatives, who have shown little life in the polls with one new survey putting the party at a level not seen since before Pierre Poilievre became party leader.This week on The Numbers, we take a look at the national polling landscape, which seems to be in a moment of some flux. Then, we take a look at the approval ratings of provincial premiers, including Doug Ford's dropping support. We also dissect new provincial polls out of Alberta, where Danielle Smith's referendum drive might be hurting the UCP, British Columbia, where the B.C. Conservatives are up following Kerry-Lynne Findlay's leadership victory, and Quebec, where the PQ has opened up a wider lead over the slumping Liberals. Then, Philippe closes with a 1957-themed Quiz.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

Amber Ruddy and Keith McLaughlin join Alberta Edge to debate whether the province's two main Tory leaders are successfully calming separatist tensions. Premier Danielle Smith, who leads Alberta's UCP, and Pierre Poilievre, leader of the federal Conservatives, are arguably on the same federalist side—but are taking different approaches to handling grievance politics. The conversation also touches on the pipeline MOU, internal UCP tensions, First Nations backlash, and the increasingly volatile political atmosphere surrounding Alberta's referendum season.

It's been an interesting past few months for the Federal Conservatives, from several MPs crossing the floor, to reports of inner-circle fighting, to Pierre Poilievre questioning PM Carney's education in economics. In more recent events, the Federal Opposition leader has since claimed that Canada is in a 'full-blown' recession, and has called for unity among Alberta separatists. Host Maria Kestane speaks to Glen McGregor, political correspondent for CityNews to discuss what challenges Poilievre's caucus may return to after the summer recess, and what issues are currently dividing the party.

In this episode of On The Line, host Matt Gurney is joined by two guests for conversations about politics, technology, and trust.This episode of On The Line is brought to you by BioCanRX, a federally funded, not-for-profit Canadian research network that specializes in bringing Canadian cancer immunotherapy research from the lab all the way to patients in clinical trials in Canada. Can science help your immune system detect and destroy cancer? Immunotherapy is about assisting your immune system in identifying unhealthy cells –– especially cancer –– that have found a way to evade detection. One way researchers are doing this is through something called CAR T. They draw your blood, isolate one type of your immune cells –– T-Cells –– and use a virus to inject genetic instructions that cause them to grow new receptors designed specifically to bind with your particular cancer. When those cells are re-infused into your body, they hopefully will be able to find and destroy your cancer.  The results are promising. In one of the 16 trials BioCanRx funds based on Canadian technology, CLIC-01, the median number of months remaining for patients with late-stage leukemia and lymphoma tripled. For some, the response was even bigger: they went from being out of options to cancer free, and have stayed that way for several years.Many questions remain — and we're working on answering them. You'll hear more over the summer. For now, go to BioCanRX.com to learn more.First up is PJ Fournier of 338Canada for a look at the latest political numbers. They discuss the good news for Mark Carney, the bad news for Pierre Poilievre, and why the Liberal numbers may not be quite as strong as they first appear. The conversation then turns to Quebec, where the next provincial election is shaping up to be one of the strangest contests either man can remember. Fournier struggles to find a historical comparison. They also discuss softening support for separation in Quebec, how that compares with developments in Alberta, and a point Matt makes that PJ suspects may not be especially popular with Quebec nationalists — even if he doesn't disagree with it.Then Matt is joined by David Shipley of Beauceron Security for a discussion about artificial intelligence, social media, and the growing gap between technological change and political institutions. How much of the current AI boom is real, and how much is hype fuelled by companies racing toward public offerings? Shipley argues that Canadians deserve greater transparency around the Tumbler Ridge case, while Matt notes that he can't even get straightforward answers about transit delays, leaving him less than optimistic about the prospects for accountability.This episode is also brought to you by the Forest Products Association of Canada. A stronger forest industry starts with predictability. Mill modernization, bioenergy, mass timber, and advanced biomaterials all depend on reliable access to usable Canadian wood fibre, workable timelines, and clear rules. Provinces lead forest management, and the federal role should be coordinated, complementary, and focused on results. Every unnecessary delay makes it harder to keep jobs and attract investment. For a sector rooted in communities, regulatory efficiency is economic policy. Learn more at FPAC.ca.The conversation also examines how major social media platforms are being exploited for fraud and manipulation, an issue Shipley has been testifying about. The core problem, he argues, is that the internet moves at the speed of light while politicians move at the speed of Parliament. That mismatch is creating vulnerabilities that are only getting worse. The episode closes with a warning to Albertans heading into a possible referendum campaign: Shipley isn't telling anyone how to vote, but he is urging people to be extremely careful about what they believe online. Foreign interference efforts are already arriving, and they're unlikely to get less sophisticated from here.This episode is also brought to you by Cameco.

Opposition leader Pierre Poilievre makes his case for Alberta to remain in Canada — and says Liberal governments should shoulder the blame for increasing separatist sentiment in the province where he grew up.The mayor of London, Ontario tells us why he believes the feds should treat addressing homelessness as a nation-building project — and fund it accordingly.

Radio that knows they were not teed off after they teed off.

In this episode of Canada Is Boring, Rhys and Jesse wade back into Canadian politics to unpack Pierre Poilievre's slow slide from “inevitable” prime minister-in-waiting to a guy desperately trying to stay relevant against Prime Minister Mark Carney. Through a series of clips, they look at PP's shifting persona, from attack dog to awkwardly “human” and back again, his bromance moment with Joe Rogan, and his current strategy of going after Carney's biggest strength: his economic reputation. Along the way, they talk centrist politics, privatization, why Carney is hard for Conservatives to hate, and how much of this is really about policy versus pure political identity. Plus: bike-safety video confessions, dad bods, and a detour into capoeira, cold McCafé, and pressure-washing as a personality type.For premium content, socials, merch, to leave a voicemail or message us go to canadaisboring.com Hosted on Acast.

Canadian ranchers are warning Ottawa not to sacrifice domestic beef producers in ongoing trade talks with Mercosur, the South American bloc including Brazil and Argentina. At the same time, Canadian consumers are facing stubbornly high grocery prices, especially at the meat counter, raising major questions about imports, food security, trade policy, and Canada's economic relationship with the United States ahead of a crucial CUSMA review.

Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Apparently, this slogan is the way to Make America Great Again (which we're told is yet another slogan.) What's more is that this meshing of slogans comes from not Pierre Poilievre, but Prime Minister Carney himself! Just as we confirm that Canada is officially in an economic recession, we have hope in learning that Steven Guilbeault is stepping down as an MP. Why is homelessness a Charter right, big news in the CFL, and we end with an idea that could actually make Canada strong. And more!

Premier Danielle Smith has added a question on Alberta separation to the October 19 referendum ballot, a move that will have repercussions for the country and the province. But is it primarily a debate being held amongst the supporters of her own party?This week on The Numbers, we discuss what the polls suggest could be the motivations behind Smith's referendum push, as well as what it could mean for the future of the United Conservative Party — and Pierre Poilievre's federal Conservatives, too. We also chat about the latest federal polls and what they say about support for the Liberals after what looked like a dip last week. Then, we break down new polls out of Ontario and Nova Scotia and briefly chat about this weekend's B.C. Conservative leadership race. Finally, Philippe has a few trivia questions about past referendums in Canada.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

Pierre Poilievre, the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, sat down with The Globe's editorial board for an interview last week. They asked him about a range of issues, from the current state of the Conservative Party to the Alberta separatism movement and tariff-free trade. Patrick Brethour is the editorials editor at The Globe, and he's on the show to discuss what they learned in this exclusive interview. Questions? Comments? Ideas?

In the latest episode of The Line Podcast, Matt Gurney and Jen Gerson devote the first segment to a full catch-up on the increasingly wild situation unfolding in Alberta. Jen is furious, arguing that five million people — and indeed the entire country — are now being dragged through this largely because Danielle Smith is trying to save her political career. She's equally angry at parts of the political right that, in her view, are repeating the mistakes the left made during the peak of woke politics: refusing to challenge allies and friends when things start getting out of control. Still, both hosts agree that now that the fight is fully underway, the issues can at least finally be debated openly. Jen states plainly, with Matt's agreement, that The Line holds an explicitly federalist position. You've been warned.This episode of The Line Podcast is brought to you by Electro-Federation Canada. Canada's clean electricity grid gives us a competitive edge in attracting global investment — but to maintain that advantage our system needs to break down barriers and unlock the grid. Aging infrastructure, supply chain constraints, and outdated regulations threaten our ability to expand and modernize the grid — essential components of meeting future capacity needs. Electro-Federation Canada has developed a research-backed roadmap for grid readiness focused on smart policy and regulatory alignment. To learn more, visit MakeTheSwitch.ElectroFed.com.In the second segment, the hosts discuss some of the major personalities shaping events, including Smith, Naheed Nenshi, Jason Kenney, and Pierre Poilievre. Jen also flags a particular political group that listeners should keep an eye on. Matt spends part of the segment stress-testing two of Jen's arguments, offering an interpretation of Smith's conduct that could potentially prove constructive, and sketching out a possible good-news scenario that Jen reluctantly entertains. He doesn't think he sold her.This episode of The Line Podcast is also brought to you by Dominion Dynamics. Canada has never had true sovereign awareness of our North. Vast parts of our country are a blind spot. And when you can't see your own territory, you can't defend it, secure it, or respond when threats emerge. Dominion Dynamics is changing that. Dominion Dynamics is building a sovereign command and control capability that lets Canada and its allies see, respond, and defend across every domain. Dominion is starting in the Arctic, where extreme conditions demand technology no one else can deliver.Defend the Dominion. Dominion Dynamics.Learn more at DefendTheDominion.com.To close, your hosts briefly revisit last week's CBC controversy, which has only become worse as additional targets — including retired RCMP officers — have emerged. The CBC says it has halted funding and launched a review, but neither host believes that will resolve the problem. Both agree that media organizations tend to forget everything they know about how the media works the moment they become the story themselves. Speaking of institutional trouble, Matt closes by asking, only half jokingly, whether the CRTC could perhaps avoid declaring war on the United States for at least the next month or so. If it's not too much trouble.All that and more on the latest episode of The Line Podcast.

Mark Carney's Liberals continue to hold their lead in the polls over Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives, while Avi Lewis and the New Democrats have yet to breakthrough. As the summer slowly approaches, we look ahead into our crystal balls at where the polls might stand later in the year with a game of Buy or Sell — are any of the parties and their leaders over-priced in the polls compared to where they'll be in three months, or are there bargains to be had?This week on The Numbers, we set our expectations for the coming months as we return to a game we last played in September. We also dissect the latest federal polling numbers and take a look at what could be a CAQ comeback in Quebec.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

Ep 602 - British Columbia Conservative Leadership Candidate Guest: Kerry-Lynne Findlay By Stuart McNish   Former Surrey MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay has put her name forward as a candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of British Columbia. Her campaign makes it clear: Findlay is a Conservative. Her website says, “BC Liberal insiders are trying to take over the Conservative Party of BC. The liberals want to steal the Conservative name… and push the same hidden liberal agenda.”    Findlay lays out the differences between liberals and conservatives saying, “BC Liberals voted for DRIPA. BC Liberals created SOGI in schools. BC Liberals created the carbon tax. And the BC Liberals voted to condemn and smear the Freedom Convoy. Let me be clear: Liberals are not taking over our Conservative Party. Not on my watch.”   Findlay served in cabinet in Stephen Harper's government and was the chief opposition Whip under the leadership of Pierre Poilievre. She says as leader she will unite the party and put forward an election platform in keeping with Conservative views.   We invited Kerry-Lynne Findlay, Conservative Party of BC leadership candidate, to join us for a Conversation That Matters about her vision for the party and the province of BC.    You can see the interview here https://www.conversationsthatmatter.ca/ Learn More about our guests career at careersthatmatter.ca

Millions of Albertans have been betrayed by bad actors fighting for separation. A major data breach involving Alberta's voter registry is raising serious questions about privacy, security, and political extremism. Reports suggest a separatist group may have accessed and distributed sensitive personal information, potentially putting thousands of Albertans at risk. How did this happen, who's responsible, and what are the consequences for public trust in our democracy?

The Davos speech, the tariff profile, and now the Canada Strong Fund. It's been a busy year for Mark Carney since being elected as Canada's 24th Prime Minister this day last year, and as Canadians face tough economic and geopolitical uncertainty, we're taking a look back at how Carney has managed to bring the country together through some of the year's - and Canada's - rockiest moments. Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to journalist and host of The Paikin Podcast, Steve Paikin, to discuss how Carney's tenure so far has changed Canada's global profile, how much of a difference he's made in strengthening the domestic economy, and how his work will be perceived in a post-Trump world.

YouTube is now the pre-eminent TV channel for those watching television. And now it also stars the latest attempts by both Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre to try to influence Canadians.

Almost two months ago, Pierre Poilievre seemed to have rounded a corner.  The "attack dog" politician became, or so it seemed, the friendly one, talking about respect and a time for unity.   Well those days are gone, long gone, after a week where the old Poilievre seemed back in full force.  Bruce and Chantal are back with their assessments of what all this means.

Prime Minister Mark Carney returns to the House of Commons with his newly-minted majority government. The Conservatives try to chart a new path forward with Pierre Poilievre as leader. And, could Canada really join the EU? Rosemary Barton hosts Chantal Hébert, Andrew Coyne and Althia Raj.

After a fourth Conservative MP crossed over last week, the Liberals are now only one seat shy of an official majority. And with two out of three byelections taking place today in safe Liberal ridings, it's widely expected that Mark Carney and the Liberals will get their majority government after the results come in.Tonda MacCharles is the Toronto Star's Ottawa bureau chief. She's here to talk about the challenges facing Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, whether he can keep his caucus in line, and if there's a case for pushing him out now.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

A former advisor to Stephen Harper's government concedes things are not going great for the Conservatives under Pierre Poilievre -- but he says MPs need to fix the party from within rather than cross the floor. The mayor of Sarnia, Ontario says some constituents feel betrayed by Marilyn Gladu's defection to the Liberal government -- and the only solution is a byelection.

This week's Rogan run had a clear theme running underneath it all: identity, responsibility, and what it actually takes to stay grounded in a world that's constantly trying to pull you off track. We break down four episodes from the week—Dustin Poirier, Brigham Buhler, Pierre Poilievre, and Mark Normand—and pull out the real takeaways that matter beyond just listening. Dustin Poirier opens up about life after fighting, the cost of competition, and what happens when your identity has been built around one thing for years. Brigham Buhler dives into the health system, peptides, and the growing tension between personal health freedom and regulation. Pierre Poilievre brings a political lens, talking leadership, sovereignty, and the direction of modern society. And Mark Normand rounds it out with a lighter but sharp conversation on comedy, culture, and how things are shifting fast. This episode isn't just a recap. It's about what you can take from these conversations and apply to your own life—discipline, clarity, and taking responsibility when it actually counts.
