Green & Red: Podcasts for Scrappy Radicals How Trump Lost the Conservatives the Canadian Election. w/ Emilia Belliveau (G&R 381)
This past week has seen a resurgence for liberal parties in other parts of the world. In Canada, Mark Carney the Liberal Party made a stunning comeback from a 20% deficit in the polls just months ago to win a narrow victory against Pierre and Poilievere and the Conservative Party. This is largely due to Donald Trump’s repeated threats that he would make Canada the U.S.A.’s “51 State.”
Scott talks with climate campaigner and researcher Emilia Belliveau about the election, the parties, the candidates and its aftermath.
