This October, we examine our neighbours’ south of the border upcoming presidential election, as well as the return of Canada’s parliament. Is an early federal election in Canada imminent too, as the NDP end their confidence agreement with the Liberals?
Join guests NDP MP Niki Ashton, policy analyst Chuka Ejeckam, poet and activist El Jones and rabble’s own parliamentary reporter Karl Nerenberg as we zero in on the U.S. election and how it will affect us in Canada as we navigate our own political shifts on Parliament Hill and contemplate a possible early federal election in Canada.
Register today to join us on October 16, 2024 at 4:30pm PT / 7:30pm ET for our first Off the Hill back from our summer hiatus! Sign up today here.
