Pablo Rodríguez + the Political Panel with Jenni and Scott

For the first part of the show today, we welcome Minister Pablo Rodríguez to the pod. Currently, Minister Rodríguez serves as Canada's Leader of the Government in the House of Commons. And the only other politician who can hope to compete with the Prime Minister on “Quality of COVID hair".

We’re going to talk a little about his back story.
His history as a politician ... what animates him.
We’ll discuss the politics of Quebec.
The politics of Ottawa.
Government accountability in the time of COVID.
What the heck is a financial snapshot and why are we not getting a real budget?
What’s the key to managing a minority parliament?
And Canada’s unsuccessful bid for a U.N. Security Council seat.

On Part 2 ... it’s our #PoliticalPanel with Jenni Byrne and Scott Reid. We’ll pick up on all of those topics AND ... we’ll throw in some bonus material: Peter MacKay ... so impressive in the conservative leadership debates last week. How did he learn to suddenly NOT SUCK quite so hard? What if Trump gave a Death Rally in Oklahoma, and only his 3rd cousins, twice removed showed up? And which disaffected Republican is gonna piss off Trump more ... John Bolton or Rick Wilson of The Lincoln Project?
