How do Canadians decide which political leaders they admire most, and why do those judgments change over time?
Josh & Jade are joined by Mario Canseco of Research Co. and political scientist Dan Reeve of Camosun College for a roundtable conversation using new polling on prime minister preference as a starting point. Rather than treating leadership as a historical scoreboard, the discussion focuses on what voters are really evaluating when they look back at past leaders.
The discussion turns to current provincial politics, including what to watch for as the B.C. Conservatives hold their first leadership debate, and what the party’s rapid membership growth may signal for opposition politics in British Columbia.
