Carney's first year: Can he maintain his broad coalition?

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Mark Carney's first anniversary as prime minister, ranging from almost gaining a majority government to maintaining a broad coalition that includes former New Democrats and centrist Conservatives. They also discuss the implications of NDP MP Lori Idlout's floor-crossing, and the possibility of a spring election. In the second half, they explore Pierre Poilievre's political future amid Carney potentially getting a majority government.. They also explore Canada's defence procurement challenges, highlighted by the Rangers' defective rifle controversy, and question whether the country can effectively manage increased military spending.
