From Trump's tariffs to bozo eruptions, our 'recovering partisans' break down the campaign's second week

Canada was spared Wednesday when the U.S. President Donald Trump announced new punishing tariffs on the rest of the world. But many Canadian industries are already feeling the pinch from tariffs Trump had imposed earlier, and big job losses are on the horizon. This week, Liberal Leader Mark Carney headed to Ottawa and put on his prime minister's hat to respond to the crisis, just as Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was attempting a different strategy to address the Trump threat — to the country and to his own election campaign. This week, our panel of "recovering partisans" joins us to discuss the campaign's second week, from Trump's tariffs and who they politically benefit, to the policy offerings and the response — or lack of response — to candidates saying things they simply shouldn't. But first, Abacus Data's David Coletto gives us the lie of the land: what's moved, what hasn't and what to make of it. In this episode: David Christopherson, the former NDP MP for Hamilton Centre; Kristina Michaud, the outgoing Bloc Quebecois MP for Avignon—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia; Karen Vecchio, the outgoing Conservative MP for Elgin—Middlesex—London; John McKay, the outgoing Liberal MP for Scarborough—Guildwood; and David Coletto, the CEO of Abacus Data. Hosted by Althia Raj. This episode of "It's Political" was produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton. Matt Hearn is our sound engineer. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel. Some of the audio clips this week were sourced from CPAC, CBC, CTV, Global, CNBC, NBC, MSNBC, CNN and ABC.

Who won the debates? Our "recovering partisans" weigh in

With less than two weeks left until election day, the leaders' debates were a crucial time for the parties to make a pitch to voters and take their opponents down a peg. Our panel of 'recovering partisans' weighs in on the highlights of the debates and the Leaders' Debate Commission's decision to exclude the Green Party and accredit right-wing "media" to the debates. In this episode: Karen Vecchio, outgoing Conservative MP for Elgin—Middlesex—London; David Christopherson, the former NDP MP for Hamilton Centre; Kristina Michaud, the outgoing Bloc Quebecois MP for Avignon—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia; and Rodger Cuzner, the former Liberal MP for Cape Breton—Canso, and now an independent Senator. Hosted by Althia Raj. "It's Political" is produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton. Kevin also mixed this episode. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel.

How Trudeau's departure and Trump's tariffs change political calculations

The 2025 political landscape is looking very different than it did just a few weeks ago. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's pending resignation, the prorogation of Parliament, and the sudden Liberal leadership race has offered the Grits a new lifeline. U.S. President Donald Trump's threat to hit Canada with 25 per cent tariffs on Feb. 1 also offers the political parties another chance at reframing themselves and what they want the ballot question to be at the next election, whether that's in eight weeks or eight months. This week on "It's Political," former Conservative party campaign director Fred DeLorey, former Prime Minister's Office head of policy and cabinet affairs Marci Surkes and former NDP press secretary Allison Gifford join Althia to talk about the shifting landscape and what it means for the major players. But first, Future Borders Coalition's Laura Dawson explains what Trump's latest threats could mean for Canada, and how best to brace for the impact. In this episode: Compass Rose Group chief strategy officer and former senior advisor to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Marci Surkes; NorthStar Public Affairs chair Fred DeLorey; Clear Strategy vice-president of public policy Allison Gifford; and Future Borders Coalition executive director Laura Dawson. Hosted by Althia Raj. Some of the clips this week were sourced from CPAC, CP24 and the White House. This episode of "It's Political" was produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton.

The Conservatives attempt to rewrite their playbook

For the past two years, the Conservatives drove home the message that things were "broken" in Canada and that the governing Liberals, specifically Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, was to blame. Whether it was branding the rising cost of living 'Justinflation' or blaming those costs on the Liberals' carbon price and urging Canadians to 'Axe the Tax,' the Tories' messaging was working perfectly fine. Then U.S. President Donald Trump returned to the White House and, with that, a new obstacle blocked Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's path to power. Trump says he's serious about annexing Canada through economic means. His threats to impose across-the-board tariffs have already caused panic in this country, and it's led to a bounce in the polls for the federal Liberals. Though the Conservatives had enjoyed a 27-point lead over the Liberals for a while, a Leger poll this week seemed to confirm a new trend: a single-digit gap between both parties — and if Mark Carney led the Liberals, the possibility the Grits could win. With Trudeau's resignation, and Liberal leadership candidates pledging to axe-the-tax, those issues are now off the table. Is it Trump's return that changes the ballot question for the next Federal election? Does winning now depend on whether the Conservatives can be seen as the best defenders of Canada against an unpredictable threat coming from our southern border? In this episode of "It's Political," Pollara Chief Strategy Officer Dan Arnold and 338canada.com's editor-in-chief Philippe J. Fournier join us for a deep dive on what the numbers really signal. Then, we'll explore the current challenges facing Pierre Poilievre and the Conservative party with Toronto Star Ottawa reporters Raisa Patel and Ryan Tumilty, along with Radio-Canada's Christian Noël. In this episode: Pollara Strategic Insight's Chief Strategy Officer Dan Arnold, 338canada.com Editor-in-Chief and Politico Contributor Philippe J. Fournier; Toronto Star Ottawa Bureau reporter Raisa Patel; Toronto Star Ottawa Bureau reporter Ryan Tumilty; and Radio-Canada parliamentary bureau journalist Christian Noël. Hosted by Althia Raj. Some of the clips this week were sourced from CPAC, Fox News, CBC, CTV, Radio-Canada, Global News, CP24, Toronto Sun, the X accounts of Pierre Poilievre, Chrystia Freeland, and Mark Carney, and Poilievre's YouTube account. This episode of "It's Political" was produced by Althia Raj and Julia De Laurentiis Johnston. Matt Hearn is our sound engineer. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel.

Liberal leadership contenders face off

Liberal leadership contenders faced off in two debates this week, and the stakes were high, with the winning candidate set to replace Justin Trudeau as prime minister and lead the party into the next election. The debates were dominated by the spectre of Donald Trump, with a central question being who can best lead Canada in this moment of national crisis. Our political panel, Toronto Star Deputy Bureau Chief Alex Ballingall, Ottawa bureau reporter Ryan Tumilty, and Abacus Data CEO David Coletto, join host Althia Raj to break down what we learned about the candidates and perceived frontrunner Mark Carney's weaknesses. Liberal MPs Randy Boissonnault and Francis Drouin also weigh in on their choices for the next Liberal leader. Some of the clips this week were sourced from CPAC, the Liberal Party of Canada, the podcast "The Rest Is Politics" and Global News.

Did Ottawa Just Get Hosed by Alberta?

The federal government signed a memorandum of understanding with Alberta yesterday, pledging support to build a new pipeline and make changes to environmental regulations. Prime Minister Mark Carney celebrated a "big day" for Alberta and Canada, but opposition to the deal was vast, including from environmental groups, B.C's Premier, Coastal First Nations, and even within the Liberal Caucus. After the deal was signed, Stephen Guilbeault resigned from Carney's Cabinet. So what did the Liberals get out of this? We asked one of them. MP Corey Hogan, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, joins us to talk about why he sees the MoU as a win for the environment, what he makes of the backlash, and what the path forward is for a pipeline that doesn't have buy-in from B.C. and affected Indigenous communities. We also try to get to the bottom of a simple question: does Canada need another pipeline? We speak to Andrew Leach, professor of economics and law at the University of Alberta, Dale Beugin, executive vice president at the Canadian Climate Institute, and Janetta McKenzie, ddirector of oil and gas at the Pembina Institute. Hosted by Althia Raj. This episode of "It's Political" was produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton, and mixed by Matt Hearn. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel.

How Carney's government is shaping up

Newly minted Liberal Leader Mark Carney ran on an ambitious platform. He promised quick and bold action. But six months into his tenure as prime minister, what have Canadians witnessed? This week on "It's Political" we'll get a variety of viewpoints on how Carney is dealing with Trump, the economy, the environment, among other issues. Then, the Toronto Star's Ottawa bureau will discuss the challenges this government faces in passing its agenda. Who will be Carney's dance partner? And how does the NDP's search for a new leader, and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre's review play into those considerations? Host Althia Raj is joined by politics reporters Ryan Tumilty and Raisa Patel, and the Star's deputy Ottawa Bureau Chief Alex Ballingall. Also featured on this episode: Mark Warner, Principal at MAAW Law; economist Don Drummond, the Stauffer-Dunning fellow at Queen's University and a fellow-in-residence at C.D. Howe; and Anna Johnston, a staff lawyer at West Coast Environmental Law. This episode of "It's Political" was produced by Kevin Sexton and Althia Raj. Matt Hearn is our sound engineer.

Canada's auto industry is on the brink. Should it be saved?

U.S. President Donald Trump is clear and consistent: he wants Canadian auto sector jobs on his side of the border. He's refused to craft a side deal on autos and has plainly said he'll increase tariffs until it makes no economic sense for Canada to build cars. This week on "It's Political" we look at whether the auto industry is worth saving, and how it could be propped up – despite the uncertainty Trump creates. Then, we'll shift gear and talk about uncertainty of a different kind. In Alberta, this week, the UCP government invoked the notwithstanding clause to end a three-week teacher strike. What's behind the move? We'll talk to the Alberta Federation of Labour which is trying to organize a potential general strike, and a constitutional lawyer about the greater meaning and consequence of Alberta's decision. In this episode: 3:23 — Saving the auto sector with Unifor Local 200 President John D'Agnolo, Former Toyota Canada executive Stephen Beatty, Centre for Future Work Director Jim Stanford, and Western University's Trillium Network for Advanced Manufacturing's Managing Director Brendan Sweeney. 41:33 — The fight against Alberta's use of the notwithstanding clause with Alberta Federation of Labour President Gil McGowan 55:48 — Why the debate over the notwithstanding clause matters with Conway Litigation Partner and constitutional lawyer Marion Sandilands. "It's Political" is produced by Althia Raj and Kevin Sexton. Our sound engineer is Matt Hearn. Our theme music is by Isaac Joel. Some of the audio clips this week were sourced from ParlVu, CPAC, the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, the Alberta Federation of Labour's Facebook page, CTV, Global, CP24, CBC, 10 Tampa Bay, Fox News, and the Manitoba Museum.

Donald Trump Wins. Now what?

Donald Trump will be president of the United States for a second time. Trump's decisive victory Tuesday plunges the U.S., the world and Canada into uncharted territory. The president-elect pledged to deport American residents, slap tariffs on imported goods, and renegotiate a crucial trade deal with Canada and Mexico. Not only are Canada and the U.S. each other's largest trading partner with $3.6 billion worth of goods and services crossing the border each day, but millions of jobs also rely on that two-way trade and investment. This week on "It's Political" we'll take a look at the Canada-United States-Mexico-Agreement (CUSMA) or as it is called in the United States, the U.S.M.C.A., and the trade irritants that have popped up since the deal came into effect four years ago. Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association President Flavio Volpe, Ontario Independent Senator and former president of the Canadian Labour Congress Hassan Yussuff, Canadian Chamber of Commerce Vice President of Strategic Policy and Global Partnerships Catherine Fortin LeFaivre, International Trade Lawyer and McMillan Partner William Pellerin, and Future Borders Coalition Executive Director Laura Dawson will join us. But we'll begin with the first of a two-part discussion about the impact of Trump's election on geopolitics, lessons learned from the last round of trade negotiations, and how Canadians political parties can prepare with Canada's former ambassador to the U.S. David MacNaughton and prime minister Justin Trudeau's former principal secretary and Eurasia Group Vice Chairman Gerald Butts. 5:24 -- MacNaughton and Butts part 1 25:00 -- Mini-documentary on CUSMA and trade irritants 48:40 -- MacNaughton and Butts part 2 Some of the clips this week were sourced from the Canadian Parliamentary Press Gallery, CPAC, Global, Fox, Bloomberg, CTV, CBC, C-SPAN, and CP24.
