British Columbians will head to the polls on October 24th, as B.C. Premier and B.C. NDP Leader David Eby drops the writ. He is framing the early election around the threat of U.S. tariffs, while also capitalizing on the ongoing turmoil inside the B.C. Conservative Party. The Daily Debrief Panel - featuring Laura D'Angelo, Stephanie Levitz, and Jeff Rutledge - digs into whether this political gamble will pay off.

On today's show:

• Vassy goes 1-on-1 with Lisa Church, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Federal Jobs Minister, who responds to criticism from labour unions that the Carney government's changes to the Labour Code infringe on workers' rights.
• Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe joins Vassy with a reality check on Trump's threats to replace Canadian potash with imports from Belarus.
• The Explainer with David Kreuger, an Assistant Professor in Robust, Reasoning, and Responsible A.I. at the University of Montreal: What's the difference between A.I. and 'Superintelligence'?
• Vassy is joined by the Heads of the Business Councils of Alberta and British Columbia with their reaction to Bill C-39.
• CTV Vancouver's Rob Buffam checks in with the latest on the B.C. election campaign.
