Listen "Poking the section 33 bear"
Episode Synopsis
Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the federal government's controversial intervention in a Supreme Court case that could fundamentally reshape how Canada's notwithstanding clause is used. They examine how the Carney government's request for the Supreme Court to impose new constraints on section 33 is a significant departure from the constitutional bargain struck in 1982 and may potentially trigger a national unity crisis. In the second half, they discuss Carney's performance in the House of Commons and the delayed federal budget amid concerns about Canada's mounting fiscal challenges.
