Why Canada's 'moderate middle' supports the Carney-Smith pipeline deal

Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss Prime Minister Mark Carney's political momentum following his pipeline agreement with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. They explore whether a "silent majority" exists beyond polarized political extremes and how Carney's centrist positioning has created some challenges for Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives. In the back half of the show, they are joined by The Hub's contributor Stephen Staley, to discuss protests against this week's Munk Debate on Israel's two-state solution. They reflect how these events demonstrate a broader threat against free speech and other liberal principles in Canada. The Hub is Canada's fastest growing independent digital news outlet.
