S1 E24 | How Did We Get Here? Canada’s Political Moment Isn’t Adding Up

from The Canadianist · host Christopher M. Michaud

Canada just handed the Liberals a majority, and we’re being told that means stability.But when you step back and look at what’s actually happening across the political landscape, it doesn’t feel stable at all.The Conservatives are slipping after a long lead. The NDP has been reduced to the sidelines. The Bloc remains regional. And the Liberals now have full control, but without full alignment across the country.So what are we really looking at here?In this episode, Christopher M. Michaud breaks down the disconnect between what’s being presented and what Canadians are actually feeling, why a majority doesn’t always mean stability, and how real balance in Parliament might be the only way forward.
