#AltElxn 2025 Show 3

Friday, April 25th, 2025 — This episode is part of the #AltElxn 2025 national election project, coordinated by the NCRA/ANREC. This initiative is supported by the Covering Canada: Election 2025 Fund, in partnership with the Public Policy Forum, Rideau Hall Foundation, and the Michener (MISSIONER) Awards Foundation. This episode was also broadcast on the Local Journalism Initiative’s platforms. With limited seats in Parliament— we asked candidates what keeps them motivated to run. With a focus on Toronto-Centre, we bring you interviews from third-party candidates in a moment. This show will also include a discussion on some of the top issues on the federal election trail and what voters are hoping will be addressed in their ridings.
