Description

At Issue this week: Will the government’s plan to send out $250 cheques and implement a GST holiday on some essential goods help Canadians, or is it more about helping the Liberals out of a slump? Plus, employment minister Randy Boissonnault resigns, and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilevre tightens control of caucus. Rosemary Barton hosts Andrew Coyne, Althia Raj and Kelly Cryderman.
