About this episode

The episode discusses Mark Carney's potential role in a post-America world and his relationship with the Liberal party, featuring insights from Althia Raj and Rob Russo.

Watching some US television today after yesterday's European summit has left some commentators asking about a major Canadian role in a post-America world. Plus a weekend article in the Toronto Star was, and still is, a real talker. It asked whether Mark Carney was drifting away from some of the Liberals who had helped him win the leadership and the election. It was written by Althia Raj and she's here with The Economist's Rob Russo. Should be an interesting conversation!
