Listen "By unpopular demand"
Episode Synopsis
A new police agency. Political parties in the cities. An Alberta pension plan. By all accounts, fairly unpopular initiatives driven by Premier Danielle Smith. So, what are the policy and political motivations behind them? Guest host Jason Markusoff is joined by Cynthia Moore, former UCP president, Feodor Snagovsky, a University of Alberta political scientist, and Janet French from CBC’s legislature bureau.
