    • News Commentary

2:40 | Rest in Power, Ben Stelter. The six-year-old superfan of the Edmonton Oilers passed away Tuesday evening after bravely battling glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer. Ryan opens the show honouring the boy who brought the entire hockey community together. 
7:54 | In less than a month, Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) voters will select their new leader. Jean Charest may be lagging in the polls, but he says he'll fight to the end. Ryan asks the former Quebec Premier about Pierre Poilievre missing the debate (and earning Stephen Harper's endorsement), his proposed tweak to the carbon tax, daycare funding, Reconciliation, and more.
43:47 | Following yesterday's interviews with alumni from Saskatoon's Legacy Christian Academy, Ryan checks in with Saskatchewan NDP leader Carla Beck. What would appropriate government action look like? Are there funding implications? The conversation evolves to provincial political dynamics across western Canada, the rise of populism, and the role of Crown corporations.
