Listen "‘Elbows Up’ Backfiring? Why can’t Canada make a deal with Trump? Will Pierre Poilievre survive?"

Episode Synopsis

This week on The Radical Centre Podcast — We’re diving into the shifting tides of Canadian politics. Is Prime Minister Mark Carney really breaking from Justin Trudeau’s legacy, or is it déjà vu in a different suit? And just how long will his honeymoon with voters last?
We’ll explore why Canada still can’t seal a deal with the United States, and whether Peter MacKay is right that the “elbows up” slogan has backfired. Then, we turn our attention to Pierre Poilievre — will he keep his seat, survive a leadership review, and lead the Conservatives into the next election?
In Ontario, Doug Ford has done the unthinkable: a rare third majority. But how’s he actually doing? Could he make the leap to federal politics? And can Bonnie Crombie hold on in the stormy seas ahead
