Episode Synopsis

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 Prime Minister Mark Carney's pending pipeline announcement with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. They examine the political risks for Carney's B.C. caucus, the shifting public opinion on energy projects, and Smith's strategic political acumen. They also discuss Carney's "who cares" gaffe regarding Trump communications and subsequent apology, including the broader question of whether the Liberal Party remains a pragmatic brokerage party or has fundamentally transformed into a more ideological progressive movement.   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?
