This week on the podcast, David is joined by two of Navigator’s consultants, Morgan McLellan and Clare Schulte-Albert, to discuss Trump and Trudeau’s recent speeches to the UN General Assembly, Liberal reforms to Canada’s small business tax code, and Ontario’s recreational marijuana regulatory plan.

Political Traction returns this week with a panel discussion on the top political events of the summer. Navigator’s Will Stewart, Amanda Galbraith, and Jason Hatcher join David to talk about what they think most altered the political landscape and what we should look out for in the months ahead.

This week, Navigator Managing Principal, Jason Hatcher, talks to us about former-BC Premier Christy Clark’s resignation and what her exit from public life means for the BC Liberals, the province, and the West.

“What I anticipate we will be told at the end of the summer: there will be a narrative in the media that Andrew Scheer didn’t grab enough headlines, that he’s not introducing himself sufficiently to voters, that he’s an unknown quantity. And that’s not what Andrew Scheer should be doing at this time.” – Travis Kann

“There’s nothing to say that either the Liberals, NDP or the Greens will have anybody within their caucuses who is willing to stand for speaker.” – Colin MacDonald
