Each week, we’ll bring you a panel discussion with Canada’s leading journalists, columnists, politicos, and change-makers discussing what’s happening in the newsphere.
This week, we’re joined by journalist, activist, and Green Party of Canada leadership candidate Dimitri Lascaris and broadcaster and columnist Andrew Lawton to go around the horn. After Monday's results, was the election worth it? In a campaign that was mired in malaise, are the leaders of the parties vulnerable? Who will be there to take their place? Then we cover the lowest turnout in Canadian history — what lead to it and how do we fix it? We talk PPC, the rising tide of anger, the Conservatives' red/blue Tory divide, and lessons learned from election 44.
