Time's up for anyone mulling a bid to lead the Liberal Party.
With the deadline to enter behind them, candidates have just a
few days left to sign up new members, and a little over a month
to drum up support. One of the frontrunners joins The House in
studio: former finance minister Chrystia Freeland sits down with
host Catherine Cullen to make her case for running the country

Then: Ontario Premier Doug Ford has confirmed he’ll call a snap
election next week and send Ontarians to the polls at the end of
February. The Toronto Star’s Queen’s Park bureau chief discusses
whether voters will reward Ford, or if they’ll be turned off by
the timing.

After that, we take a close look at an ongoing economic headache
that doesn't involve Donald Trump: trade between provinces.
Premiers hope that breaking through interprovincial barriers can
in fact better protect against Trump's tariffs. But experts and
former officials say getting rid of those barriers is a tall
order — and there hasn’t been much success in the past.

Finally, as several Liberal leadership candidates distance
themselves from the carbon tax, and as Donald Trump continues to
threaten Canada's economy, do the Conservatives need to shift
their campaign focus? Two strategists weigh in on how their party
is reacting to recent events.

This episode features the voices of:

Chrystia Freeland, Liberal leadership candidate

Robert Benzie, Queen’s Park bureau chief for the Toronto Star

Philippe Couillard, former Quebec premier

Perrin Beatty, former federal cabinet minister

Carlo Dade, director of trade infrastructure at the Canada
West Foundation

Chad Rogers, Conservative strategist

Fred DeLorey, Conservative strategist
