Canadaland
About this episode

Jane Lytvynenko, CANADALAND’s news editor, guest co-hosts with Supriya Dwivedi.

 

As the NDP approaches a leadership review, Jane and Supriya try to figure out who Tom Mulcair even is.

 

Maclean’s Quebec Bureau Chief Martin Patriquin laughs off the idea that the Quebec government will clean itself up after recent arrests in the provincial corruption scandal.

 

Jane and Supriya offer free advice on how the Trudeau government can make itself more transparent without having to do the whole public consultation thing.
