Andrew Coyne is a Globe and Mail columnist and one of Canada’s most trusted commentators. He joins host Rudyard Griffiths to discuss how the Conservative Party’s anti-Trudeau messaging undermined their ability to provide Canadians with an appealing platform in an election that doesn’t include the former PM. Mark Carney, meanwhile, is acting like a grownup in charge when a crisis hits, even though his big spending promises suggest he’s not the blue liberal many centre-right Canadians had hoped. Rudyard and Andrew also talk about Trump’s threats to fire US Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell, and why the independent authority of central banks is so integral to the functioning of democracies.
