CFRA Live - Teeing up a crowded byelection battle in Battle River-Crowfoot

View descriptionShare

A long-awaited item on the Carney government’s to-do list should be erased from the chalkboard by Monday night. That would be a byelection in a rural Alberta riding, which resembles the clearest pathway for Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre to re-join the House of Commons as an MP. The problem for Poilievre: There are over 200 names running for the same job in Battle River-Crowfoot. It’s a similar reality that he faced a few months ago in his longtime riding of Carleton, which eventually switched hands to Liberal counterpart Bruce Fanjoy. Lori Turnbull, a Professor of Political Science at Dalhousie University, tackles the unique dynamics at play on CFRA Live.
