Karl Nerenberg: The Conservative leadership race getting people excited

Karl Nerenberg, explains why the Conservative leadership race – and Pierre Poilievre – has been gaining so much attention.

This is a clip from our recent live political panel, Off the Hill: Hot summer in the West. During this panel, our special guests dissected Canadian politics in a time of turbulent leadership. Considering the departure of the (disgraced) premier in Alberta and the federal conservative leadership race becoming increasingly vitriolic, our expert panelists offered analysis into what we could expect to see unfold in Alberta and Ottawa’s political scenes.

Karl Nerenberg is an award-winning journalist, broadcaster and filmmaker, working in both English and French languages. He is rabble’s parliamentary correspondent and a regular Off the Hill panelist.
