Thursday - Episode 1097: Shibboleths

Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter talk about political party conventions - who they're for, their value and what Pierre Poilievre can expect to get out of his this weekend in Quebec City. Are conventions for the faithful or the public? Why do political parties put so much effort into the communications surrounding conventions? And will Dan Arnold appreciate all three of his name checks this episode? Zain Velji, as always, isn't here. But Annalise Klingbeil is, and she's got you covered.
