Political flexing. That’s wassup.
Description
The House. Is. Back! And everyone’s flexing their muscles.
Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet joins the show to talk about how his party might use its strength to get what they want from the government.
Plus, after NDP leader Jagmeet Singh had a standoff with protesters who’d hurled insults at him, MPs talk about just how much harassment they’ve faced in politics.
Then we’ll hear from a panel of political strategists about whose flex was best over an upcoming attempt to bring the government down.
Finally, the second phase of the foreign interference inquiry kicked off on Monday. CBC’s Marina von Stackleberg will bring us up to speed.
