John Stackhouse + the Political Panel with Jenni and Scott

Part 1 of today's pod is John Stackhouse ... making an almost unprecedented RETURN to The Herle Burly. Besides being only the guest other than Ken Dryden to be a repeat guest on our show, our original interview with John is one of the top 10 most-listened-to episodes in our podcast history!

John spent close to a quarter century at the Globe and Mail. As a foreign correspondent, editor of Report on Business and then finally, Editor-in-Chief. Today, he’s a Senior Vice-President, office of the CEO, at the Royal Bank of Canada where he advises leadership on emerging trends in the Canadian economy. He’s also the author of a new book, launching tomorrow called, “Planet Canada: How our Expats are Shaping the Future” in which he argues that our country’s greatest untapped resource may be the 3 million Canadians who don’t live here anymore. We’ll talk about that, plus, we’ll dive deep into the COVID and post-COVID economy.

For Part 2, we’ll bring on our Political Panel ... those creators of memorable strategies, and utterers of vivid expletives ... Jenni Byrne and Scott Reid. Not shockingly, we’re gonna do a lot of Trump talk today. The garden party seems to be over for the Trump campaign. We’ll discuss what Team Trump might do to stem the bleeding (besides jumping in limos and having impromptu hospital parades), plus we'll discuss Annamie Paul and what the exciting new leader might mean for the Green Party of Canada.
