It was a statement win for Mark Carney on Sunday, who needed only a single round of voting to claim the Liberal leadership race. At the time of this podcast, he is Canada’s designated Prime Minister. Well, at least for now, as an election will happen at some point in 2025. Either he will call one in short order, or one of the opposing parties will use a non-confidence vote to force one. We also have a third option, which is a scheduled date in October. CTV’s Rachel Aiello fills in the blanks. Meantime, Canada’s oldest retailer is in financial trouble, as Hudson’s Bay Co. files for creditor protection. And in an effort to restructure its business, half of their stores could be on the chopping block. We dig deeper with David Ian Gray, a retail advisor and the founder of DIG 360.
