The Effects of Strong Mayor Powers on Municipal Elections

Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss the results of the Toronto mayoral by-election, and how the city's politics will shake out over the next few years under Olivia Chow's leadership.

It's letter time! It's letter time! We take a read through the podcast mailbag to answer all the questions we couldn't get to over the last few weeks. Can the United States sue Canada over wildfire smoke? How far back does Ontario's financial debt go? And who are the political Crombies of the world?

Finally, Steve and John Michael reveal the winner of our book giveaway before they take a summer break.
