Corey Hogan and Zain Velji discuss the federal government's new dental plan, Liberal "negative ad" efforts and use a rumour about Rachel Notley stepping down as Alberta NDP leader as a jumping off point for a discussion of how a leader leaves and when they decide to do so. Should the NDP spend big to try to brand the dental plan as their own? Do negative ads work? And how long until The Strategists run out of "Zain Velji for Leader" posters? Stephen Carter continues his annual sabbatical. But Annalise Klingbeil is here, and she does a passable Zain, who in turn does a passable Stephen.
