About this episode

The episode discusses Mark Carney's negotiation stance with the US and Jamil Jivani's role in Washington, along with political commentary from Bruce and Chantal.

The message from Mark Carney to Conservative MP Jamil Jivani was very clear -- there's only one player on the Canadian team negotiating with the US and that's his government. But is there? Jivani is in Washington again saying he's working for Canada. The plot thickens. Plus, Avi Lewis passes up another opportunity to run for the party he leads in an upcoming byelection - should he? And the King in the US. Bruce and Chantal have their say.
