    Your Province. Your Problem

    Your Province. Your Problem

    Lindsay Amantea has all the details on that moratorium — she spells this out amazingly well for the rest of us. Also, those federal regulations? Lindsay says you can find the rest of the story in Triple Crown, former Premier Jim Prentice’s book. She’s also put together a form letter if you’ve got concerns about government interfering with a *cough* “free” market. P.S. send me a note if you’re a paid substack subscriber who also wanted unlimited access to the podcasts. Episodes for subscribers have been posted in patreon but I can add you to the list if you were supporting both!

    Your Province. YOUR Problem.

    Your Province. YOUR Problem.

    Things get spicy when we talk about the Alberta Premier’s promotion of self-interest and what is going on in New Brunswick.
    Deirdre Mitchell-MacLean, Kathleen Smith, and Lindsay Amantea even make a little space for Katie O’Byrne, our northernmost progressive.
    Throw us a rating on Apple so we can show up before the old PoliticalRnD channel, if you would be so kind :)

    Your Province. YOUR Problem.

    Deirdre Mitchell-MacLean and Kathleen Smith get spicy and Lindsay Amantea is the voice of reason as we talk arena madness, membership woes and throes, and whether some of us (Deirdre) can survive living in rural if the NDP form government again.
