Description

Coming up in this episode of the Rob Breakenridge Show:

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is finally back in Ottawa after a most trying six months. What are the challenges and opportunities for the Conservatives as they hold the government to account on the economy, crime, immigration, and other issues? With a new prime minister on the other side of the aisle, not to mention his own learned lessons, are we seeing a different opposition leader? We’ll speak with Ben Woodfinden, who was formerly Poilievre’s director of communications and is now a senior adviser at Meredith Boessenkool & Philips.

Plus, amid the debate about the future of the CBC, a new book from a long-time producer at CBC makes the case for major changes at the public broadcaster in order to help preserve it. We’ll hear from David Cayley about his new book, “The CBC: How Canada’s Public Broadcaster Lost Its Way (And How to Get It Back)”
