Listen "'We're not back': Canada's fumbling of key international relations"
Episode Synopsis
After months of foreign relations turbulence, CTV News' Michael Stittle and pollster Nik Nanos discuss Canada's international reputation and look at recent surveys from Nanos Research –- which has good and bad news for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government. In 2015, Trudeau declared to the world that Canada was 'back,' but it's been a bumpy road for his government lately. Nik gives his take on how the prime minister has handled challenges with India, the Nazi scandal in Parliament, as well as what role Canada could play when it comes to major events like the Israel-Hamas war. Ahead of the Bank of Canada's next planned rate decision, Nik's data shows that housing and inflation remain the top issues of concern for Canadians. Amid a raging house crisis, is the federal NDP missing an opportunity to connect with a broader swath of the voting public? Our next episodes will be available Wednesday, Nov. 1 CREDITS: Michael Stittle (host) Nik Nanos (guest) Jesse Tahirali (editor); Phil Hahn and Patrick Rail (producers)
