So in the end the Mark Carney government survived the budget vote. But you have to wonder whether the 140-138 vote in the Commons was what they really wanted. Sure it avoids a messy Christmas season election, but it also avoids what may have been the PM's best chance of turning a minority into a majority. We'll discuss that and what happens now with The Economist's Rob Russo and the Toronto Star's Althia Raj on this Tuesday's Reporter's Notebook.

New Angus Reid polling data shows Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre's national ‘favourability' ratings have hit an all-time low. To add insult to injury, thanks to two Conservative abstentions, Prime Minister Carney didn't need to rely on support from the NDP during last night's budget vote, who made it clear they don't plan to play ball with the Liberal government this time around.Plus, Elizabeth May's dramatic support of PM Carney's Liberal budget hours before the vote was peak political theatre.

Radio Baloney Live! Carney Deficit, Jason Jacques, Mexico Riots, Pierre PoilievreBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-baloney-the-richie-baloney-show--4036781/support.

The federal Conservatives were still licking their wounds from the Liberals' recent minority election victory when they were rocked by a stunning and dispiriting floor-crossing. And they failed to stop the government from passing its budget by a razor-thin margin. That was 20 years ago, as Ian Brodie, former chief of staff to prime minister Stephen Harper, reflects on with Brian. And it looked a lot like what Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives are going through today. Back then, it took less than a year before the government fell and Harper's Conservatives won their first of three election victories. Brodie explains what lessons Poilievre and his team can learn from that time, and why Conservatives shouldn't be too shaken by their recent troubles.

This week on Open Sources Guelph, the thirteenth is unlucky for some, even though it's a Thursday. Luck is definitely not on the side of the leader of the federal opposition, unless we're talking about bad luck of course, and coming off Remembrance Day there was some rare controversy that might have been blown out of proportion. For the interview, we've got someone looking for some luck as he tries to convince members of his party that he's got what it take to lead. This Thursday, November 13, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Battleship Poilievre. Before the federal budget was released last week there were a lot of questions about whether or not Mark Carney and his government would survive. Now, over a week later, the question is whether or not Pierre Poilievre's leadership of the Conservative Party will survive. We will look at the party infighting in the opposition bench as the leader looks at what was always going to be a contentious leadership review in the new year that's gotten much more complicated. Poppy Goes the World. In Nova Scotia, Premier Tim Houston started a silly culture war over the poppy, the symbol of honouring Canada's war dead every 11th of November. The controversy involves the long-standing court tradition of dissuading court works from wearing the poppy in order to maintain impartiality, and the blowback Houston created forced Nova Scotia's top judges make a rare political statement. Are we mistaking virtue signalling for actual remembrance? All About Yves. The NDP leadership race is more or less a five person race, and if that holds up, might Yves Engler be considered the odd man out? In more ways that one because Engler is not a politician, he's an author and activist, and his platform calls for a working class revolution, the end of capitalism, and an end to NDP efforts to appeal to moderates from the centre right and left. Engler joins us this week from his leadership tour to talk about why an outsider is the best choice to rebuild the federal NDP and make it a movement. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.

Derek Fildebrandt, Nigel Hannaford, and Cory Morgan are joined by Will Barclay to discuss the controversy at the University of Calgary over painting over the Palestinian flag, Ottawa's plan to turn bureaucrats into part-time soldiers, and growing attacks on Pierre Poilievre's leadership.

With the Trump administration issuing alarming threats about eradicating "narco-terrorism" in our Hemisphere after accusing Canada of having drug cartels and sending fentanyl to the USA, and ramping up military action in Venezuela, not to mention the shocking revelations from the Epstein emails, we are witnessing a tumultuous week in politics that demands our attention.This special Double Header episode with Douglas Connors breaks down the tantalizing drama surrounding Pierre Poilievre's faltering leadership and MP defections. As poll numbers reveal a shifting political landscape in Canada, we must ask: Is the Epstein Files bombshell the beginning of the end for the MAGA movement and its waning appeal in Alberta, led by MAGA-friendly Danielle Smith and Poilievre's maple MAGA Conservative Party?Additionally, we engage with Guy Felicella, a passionate global advocate for Housing First and harm reduction, a resident of BC. He lays bare the reality that Poilievre's rhetoric and policies fall short of being fiscally responsible, particularly when contrasted with the proven Housing First model. Guy shares his deeply personal story and raises a pressing question: Will Prime Minister Mark Carney's housing strategy be sufficient to confront the crisis that is forcing hundreds of thousands of Canadians to suffer on our streets this winter?This episode is not just insightful; it is essential listening for anyone who cares about the future of our communities and the direction of our country.

The numbers certainly conclude that if all opposition MPs vote against the budget then the government will fall. But will that happen and will it happen next week? All that on the heels of the budget and the latest major projects list? That and this question -- Is Mark Carney still green? All this with Chantal Hebert and Bruce Anderson on this week's Good Talk.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the Carney government's new list of major projects and what it reveals about Ottawa's economic strategy. They argue that projects require financing rather than regulatory acceleration, suggesting the government is overriding market signals through subsidies. In the back half of the show, they discuss rising economic discontent among younger Canadians, the potential for a "bourgeoisie revolt," and what it means for Canadian politics. They also explore whether Pierre Poilievre's controversial style meets this moment of economic anxiety, and why Mark Carney's technocratic approach could be deemed as out of touch.  The Hub is Canada's fastest growing independent digital news outlet.   Subscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get our best content when you are on the go: https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple)  https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify)   Want more Hub?

The decisions of one Conservative MP to cross the floor, and another to resign have sparked a wider conversation about whether Pierre Poilievre should remain leader of the party.Those moves also forced the Conservatives into their version of damage control, given the stories of intense pressure campaigns and disputed accounts of office screaming sessions.Two conservatives joined host Jayme Poisson with their take on how Poilievre and his supporters are managing this latest crisis.Fred DeLorey is the chair of Northstar Public Affairs. He was also former Conservative leader Erin O'Toole's national campaign director in 2021.

After the loss of two MPs, we speak to conservative strategists about Pierre Poilievre's leadership style, and if he should change it. Regan Watts, Erika Barootes, and Ginny Roth, join Matt Galloway.

In this episode of Hub Politics, host Sean Speer is joined by Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data, to discuss recent Abacus Data polling on Pierre Poilievre's leadership paradox whereby he has strong support among Conservative base voters but has low popularity numbers with non-Conservative voters. They explore whether the Conservative Party has reached its electoral ceiling, the trade-offs between mobilizing the base versus appealing to swing voters, and whether any alternative leader could perform better.   The Hub is Canada's fastest growing independent digital news outlet.   Subscribe to The Hub's podcast feed to get our best content when you are on the go: https://tinyurl.com/3a7zpd7e (Apple)  https://tinyurl.com/y8akmfn7 (Spotify)   Want more Hub?

Elias Makos is joined by Caroline Codsi, Founder & Chief Equity Officer, Women in Governance, and Paul Gott, Lead singer and guitarist for Montreal Punk Rock band the Ripcordz and a journalism professor at Concordia. Is Mark Carney’s honeymoon with voters coming to an end? Quebecers are seemingly not impressed with Mark Carney’s first budget. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre spoke to reporters yesterday for the first time since two MPs announced they were leaving his caucus. As it stands right now, there will be no bus or metro service this weekend. Doctors leaving for Ontario may not be getting the better lifestyle that was promised to them.

In Episode 305 of UnSpun with Jody Vance and George Affleck, it's a wild ride from City Hall to Washington, with detours through measles outbreaks, LNG politics, and billion-dollar hypocrisy.Here's what's inside:

Last week was quite something, even for Canadian politics. A big-time Liberal budget with a huge deficit, while chaos ruled in the Conservative opposition. How do you explain that? That's the question for our extremely popular panel feature, a former top Liberal advisor and a former Conservative cabinet minister. Strap in for this one. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

In his first news conference since one Conservative MP defected to the Liberals and another said he would resign, a reporter asked leader Pierre Poilievre if the departures say anything about his leadership or if they have prompted him to reflect on his leadership style. The Power Panel dissects Poilievre's answer: 'no.' CBC's Kate McKenna reports on six projects that will be on Prime Minister Mark Carney's second list of major projects on Thursday, according to CBC News sources. Plus, Kaja Kallas, vice-president of the European Commission, tells David Cochrane why she believes the EU must change to reflect a dissolving global order or risk irrelevance.

Bombshell emails released just moments before we started streaming this episode suggest Donald Trump hasn't exactly been truthful about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and his knowledge of what was going on.

Conservative voters weigh in on the future direction of the party and the leadership of Pierre Poilievre with conservative commentator, Shak Chambers. He is vice president of external affairs for the Peoples' Group. We also hear from pollster David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data.

Questions continue to surround the future of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre following the turmoil of budget week. Not only did the Conservatives lose Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont to the Liberals, they also lost Edmonton MP Matt Jeneroux, who announced his upcoming resignation. It's been widely reported that Jeneroux was contemplating a floor-crossing of his own, but instead he has opted to resign his seat in the coming months.While it's possible the caucus departures could halt with d'Entremont and Jeneroux, rumours are swirling that upwards of a dozen Conservative MPs are unhappy with Poilievre's leadership and how events have unfolded over the last few weeks. Can Poilievre weather this storm?This week on The Numbers, we discuss the latest developments and what the poll numbers say about the state of the Conservative Party and its leader. We also take a look at how Canadians are reacting to last week's budget. Was it ho-hum, or a turning point? Plus, Québec Solidaire chooses a new co-leader that will have it doubling-down on independence and we have some new polling numbers out of Ontario.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

The Conservative party is reeling from a pair of resignations that happened during budget week.First, Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont crossed the floor to the Liberals, citing disagreement with Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre's approach to politics.Two days later, Edmonton MP Matt Jeneroux resigned from his position, citing the need for more time with his family. According to a senior Liberal source who spoke to the CBC, Jeneroux was in talks with Prime Minister Carney about defecting.Longtime federal politics reporter Stephen Maher walks us through the high stakes political drama.

Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives react to Edmonton MP Matt Jeneroux announcing his resignation. Canadian economy exceeds expectations as it adds 67,000 jobs in October. Shots heard outside Universal Ostrich Farms, hours after CFIA announced it will proceed with cull of 300 birds. Vietnam cleaning up after Typhoon Kalmaegi, five people killed. Aid groups warn not enough humanitarian supplies are reaching those in need in Gaza. Sam Smith calls Beverly Glenn-Copeland 'statesman of queer community' at Pink Awards.

Questions surface about Pierre Poilievre's leadership after one Conservative MP crosses the floor and another resigns. Prime Minister Mark Carney looks for the votes to support his federal budget. And Canada's plan to slash immigration levels. Rosemary Barton hosts Chantal Hébert, Andrew Coyne and Althia Raj.

The Liberal government breezed past a second potentially fatal vote tied to its budget on Friday, but the outcome of a final vote expected on Nov. 17 remained unclear amid undecided parties and rumours about further resignations or floor-crossings. Parliamentary secretary to the prime minister Kody Blois lays out the Liberals' strategy to keep their government alive. Plus, former Conservative chief of staff David McLaughlin and former Liberal campaign co-chair David Herle discuss how much of a threat the instability in Conservative caucus is to Pierre Poilievre's leadership.

Another blow to Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives, as longtime Alberta MP Matt Jeneroux announces his resignation. What does this mean for PM Mark Carney's minority government (and the Official Opposition CPC) moving forward?

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss a tumultuous week in Canadian politics with the Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre facing scrutiny after a Conservative MP crossed the floor to the Liberals and another one abruptly resigned. They also cover what it could mean for Prime Minister Mark Carney's government as well as the potential risks to national unity. In the second half, they shift the discussion to Zohran Mamdani's landslide victory in New York City's mayoral race, and how his radical progressive platform represents a potent new political force that conservatives must reckon with. They also examine what lessons Canadian politicians should draw from his success in appealing to educated professionals struggling with cost-of-living pressures.

In this episode of The Line Podcast, recorded on November 7, 2025, Matt Gurney and Jen Gerson react to a remarkably busy week in Canadian politics.This episode of The Line Podcast is brought to you by Forestry For The Future. Canada's housing crisis demands bold, scalable solutions. Build Canada Homes is an opportunity to leverage Canadian wood in modern construction. Wood-based methods like mass timber and modular construction can significantly reduce build times, waste, and carbon emissions, while supporting local economies. Expanding building codes, streamlining approvals, and prioritizing domestic wood in federal projects could double demand and foster job creation in rural and northern communities.Despite trade challenges and market volatility, a partnership between industry and government is vital to stabilize the sector, enhance competitiveness, and deliver innovative, sustainably sourced Canadian wood products for homes across Canada and abroad. With capacity growing across provinces, stable demand and predictable financing are key to unlocking the sector's potential.We need to Build Canada Homes with Canadian wood. To learn more, visit ForestryForTheFuture.ca.They start with the Mark Carney government. Matt's self-imposed six-month grace period for judging the new prime minister has expired, and he's ready to weigh in: better than Trudeau, but not good enough for the moment. Jen is slightly more patient but, somehow, even sharper in her take — especially when it comes to Carney's recent apology to Donald Trump, which she finds baffling and unnecessary. And enraging.This episode is also brought to you by CPA Ontario. There's a saying: “Keep it simple,” and what's true for life is true for taxes. And while this week's historic federal budget introduced some much-needed tax measures to help spur investment and innovation, there is still more work to be done to make Canada's tax system less complex, and more competitive.  Just ask a CPA. In a recent survey, 84 per cent of Ontario CPAs said Canada's tax system is overly complex. They know how complexity drains resources from productive activity, and how high tax rates discourage investment and entrepreneurship, the very things Canada needs. Consider the numbers: real GDP per capita has barely grown in seven years and investment per worker in Canada is less than half that of the U.S.Complexity has a cost, and Canadians are paying it. Our sponsor, CPA Ontario, the regulator of over 105,000 Chartered Professional Accountants, has released a report putting forward 20 bold, practical recommendations to reform Canada's tax system, and simplify the Income Tax Act. The 2025 Budget was a step forward — but more reform is needed to grow the economy, create jobs, and raise living standards.Learn more at cpaontario.ca/taxreformThen attention turns to the Conservatives, where Pierre Poilievre's week has gone from bad to worse. Two MPs have walked away, and the question now is whether this is an isolated hiccup or the start of a real leadership problem. Matt and Jen point out that without the wind of inevitable victory at his back, Poilievre will need to rely on charm and political skill — qualities not generally considered his strong suit.The episode wraps with a wide-ranging discussion on what “woke” and “feminism” actually mean in 2025, and how those words have evolved. Jen is workshopping a new column on the topic, and Matt is clearly looking forward to reading it. All that and more in the latest episode of The Line Podcast.

Host David Cochrane breaks the news live on Power & Politics that Alberta MP Matt Jeneroux will resign, with Jeneroux saying he made the decision to focus on his family following the speculation surrounding the Conservative Party over the last 48 hours. The Power Panel and CBC's Rosemary Barton have immediate analysis on whether the loss of two MPs in a week is a growing threat to Pierre Poilievre's leadership. Plus, Defence Minister David McGuinty squares how close the budget's $82 billion for his file will get Canada to the 3.5 per cent of GDP NATO spending target set for 2035.

Budget day brought a political shock, and a clearer indication of where Prime Minister Mark Carney plans to take the government. The shock—a floor crossing. MP Chris d'Entremont left the Conservatives to join the Liberals, saying Pierre Poilievre's leadership style is too negative. And d'Entremont has hinted he may be the first, but won't be the last. We'll have that, and also reaction from small business owners, and a deeper look at what the Carney government is proposing for immigration levels in Canada.Also: The U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments about whether President Donald Trump's tariffs are legal.And: Assassination is shockingly commonplace in Mexico. We'll bring you the story of the killing of mayor Carlos Manzo, known for his outspoken opposition to drug cartels and organized crime.Plus: The tragedy unfolding in El Fasher, Sudan; Democrats win key U.S. races, and more.

Mark Carney's first federal budget is out, and it's a bold statement from a Prime Minister trying to prove he's not just the banker-in-chief, but a nation-builder with a plan. Billions are flowing into housing, clean energy, and industry, but does any of this actually benefit Alberta? Is Budget 2025 economic vision — or political survival disguised as one? 4:30 | We set the table by hearing from opposition party leaders Pierre Poilievre, Yves-François Blanchet, and Don Davies. 12:00 | What does this budget do to address economic lags, troubling regional trends, and Canada's housing crunch?

Mark Carney's Liberal government tabled what it called its ‘generational' budget on Tuesday, promising a mix of spending and cuts and booking a big budget deficit. So far, the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois look set to vote it down. The New Democrats are on the fence.But the drama of budget day was punctuated by the defection of Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont from the Conservatives to the Liberals. He might not be the only one to cross the floor as rumours fly. What does it mean for the fate of the government, Pierre Poilievre's leadership and the potential for a snap election?We had good reason to delay this week's episode of The Numbers until after the budget so we could break down all the latest drama — because there's quite a bit of it! We also discuss the state of the NDP leadership race and some new provincial polling out of Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta, as well as the results of the mayoral elections in Quebec and the territorial vote in Yukon.CORRECTION: In Philippe's Number of the Week, he said 85% when he meant 75%.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

In this episode of Hub Politics, host Sean Speer is joined by Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data, to discuss the Carney government's first budget and the dramatic floor-crossing that overshadowed its release. They debate whether the budget's focus on macroeconomic growth and productivity over immediate household relief was the right approach. They then examined the political bombshell of former Conservative MP Chris d'Entremont's crossing the floor to the Liberals, potentially putting them within reach of a majority government. They explore what this new development means for both Carney's governing prospects and Pierre Poilievre's leadership of the Conservative Party.

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail, PSAC, and the Canadian Nuclear Isotope Council.Greetings, you curiouser and curiouser Herle Burly-ites. Remember about 15 years ago, when the publicly-troubled-at-the-time actor Charlie Sheen went viral for invoking the word “WINNING!” all over the place and in some pretty odd ways. Even when he wasn't winning.Charlie's past that now. But let me submit our guest today has full rights to that word: Veteran PC and Conservative Party campaign manager, Steve Outhouse. He managed Premier Tony Wakeham's majority winning campaign just a couple of weeks ago in Newfoundland. As well as Premier Smith's UCP majority victory in Alberta.Steve hails from Freeport, Long Island in southwest Nova Scotia. He worked in various comms roles in the Harper government before moving on to helm 3 federal CPC Leadership campaigns, as well as provincial leadership campaigns in Nova Scotia, PEI and the aforementioned Newfoundland and Labrador. He's the founder of the “Just Campaigns” consultancy and says he's “a bad business person”, but winning elections isn't exactly bad for business. We'll talk today a little more about Steve's background about what animates his political life. Then we'll do a deep dive into modern campaign mechanics: What works today? What doesn't? I want his thoughts on “hot button” issues and how best to use them. Then, and this particularly relevant because he was Chief of Staff to Pierre Poilievre prior to 2015, what advice would Steve give to the federal Conservatives?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.
