Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss the new Alberta transgender youth policies through the lens of three groups: Alberta NDP leadership hopefuls, Take Back Alberta and a non-profit with $50,000 to take a stand on this issue. Are the NDP walking into a UCP trap? Is this a time for a non-profit to act incrementally or revolutionarily? And what WhatsApp groups have Stephen been banned from? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

Episode 1282: Three rooms

Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss the results of the Toronto-St.Paul's byelection. How big of a deal is this? Is there a path forward for Justin Trudeau? What does it mean for Pierre Poilievre and Liberal leadership hopefuls? And how many Douglas mattresses will be sold as a consequence of this episode? Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

Episode 1811: Secondary losers

Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss the Alberta NDP leadership results, lopsided leadership races and what the still-being-counted results in Toronto-St. Paul's mean for Justin Trudeau and Pierre Poilievre. When a result looks like it's going to skew heavily to one candidate, why do other candidates run? Do the Liberals win the expectations game if they squeak out a victory? And at Zain's Strategists Accountability Session, will we get to discuss the many ways he is like the Florida Panthers organization? Zain Velji, as always, gets distracted by songs about himself.

Episode 1810: Wisdom from the sidelines

Corey Hogan and Stephen Carter discuss a column where outgoing Alberta NDP leader Rachel Notley appears to attack incoming-with-83%-of-the-vote Alberta NDP leader Naheed Nenshi - before turning to the looming Toronto-St. Paul's byelection. How should Nenshi engage (or not) with Rachel Notley and Jagmeet Singh at Notley's farewell dinner? Is Toronto-St. Paul's a referendum on Justin Trudeau's leadership? And will GOCalgary.ca change Calgary politics forever? Zain Velji, as always, gets distracted by songs about himself.
