An elder statesman to many Conservatives is warning the country:
a Liberal victory could fuel western secession. What’s the
appetite for that message? Former Reform Party leader Preston
Manning joins The House to explain why Canadian unity is on the
ballot.

Next, as union leaders say more pain from U.S. tariffs is likely
around the corner, NDP candidate for Hamilton Centre Matthew
Green shares his party’s vision for a path forward.

Then, CBC’s Jacques Poitras profiles the riding of Saint
John-Kennebecasis in New Brunswick where tariffs and party drama
play into a Liberal-Conservative tug-of-war.

Plus, our panel of political strategists discuss the Liberal and
Conservatives candidates dropped by their parties this week and
how the campaigns should try and meet the moment on Trump’s
tariffs.

Finally, CBC producer Chris Rands takes the aux cord and walks
through a playlist of pump-up songs party leaders keep on repeat
at rallies and campaign stops this election.

This episode features the voices of:

Preston Manning, former Reform Party leader

Matthew Green, NDP candidate for Hamilton Centre

Jacques Poitras, provincial affairs reporter for CBC New
Brunswick

Marci Surkes, Liberal strategist

Fred DeLorey, Conservative strategist
