Alright, it’s time for another Herle Burly 2-part pod!
Part 1 of the podcast is going to take us on a deep dive into the process of platform development. How does it happen? How is it different in each party? What’s the sausage-making that goes on behind the scenes? What role does caucus play in the whole thing? Joining me for that discussion are:
Karim Bardeesy, Executive Director and Co-Founder of the Ryerson Leadership Lab, and was the previously the Deputy Principal Secretary for Premier Kathleen Wynne and Executive Director of Policy for Premier McGuinty.
Jordan Leichnitz, Canada Program Officer for the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung office in Washington, a social democratic institute. Before that, she contributed to policy development in Senior Roles for the New Democratic Party of Canada, including Deputy Chief of Staff.
And Sean Speer, Assistant Professor of Public Policy at U of T’s Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy. Prior to that, he was senior economic adviser to Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Part 2 of the pod is the ever-sweary but never over-sharey, Political Panel with Jenni Byrne and Scott Reid. We’ll tell a couple of our own platform-building stories. Jenni will give us the low-down on her Calgary Stampede trip and the Conservative state of things out there in Alberta. Trudeau had a great last week out in BC and Alberta. He managed to get the Childcare deal with Horgan and punch Jagmeet Singh in the face at the same time. And his personal popularity numbers are higher than O’Toole’s in Alberta, according to Abacus. Plus, much more Election Speculation and #HeyYou!
