  • What to expect from Carney and Poilievre as Parliament returns next month
    Aug 28 2025

    Kory Teneycke, conservative strategist, co-founder of Rubicon Strategy, and three times campaign manager to Premier Doug Ford, joins Rudyard Griffiths to analyze the political dynamics as Parliament returns in mid-September. They examine Prime Minister Mark Carney's early challenges, from trying to deliver on ambitious promises like internal free trade and major infrastructure projects, managing a potentially massive budget deficit, to holding together his progressive coalition. They also discuss Pierre Poilievre's return to Parliament, his need to reset his approach and how Canada's political landscape has effectively become a two-party race, with the NDP's collapse creating opportunities for both the Liberals and Conservatives.
