Submit ReviewEpisode 4: The Blue Adios aka the “Scheering”
A Tale of Two Leadership Races, Part 1, “The Lynnterview”
It was the best of times it was the worst of times and whether you’re looking at the Federal Conservative or Provincial Liberal race this statement could go either way.....or depending on your opinion of us it could apply to our return to the podcast after an extended holiday hiatus....
In the first episode of our leadership race series we’re back in the Alibi Room, where the drink is blue, and so is the former leader of the Conservative Part of Canada, Andrew Scheer.
Before getting into the race itself, our team plays a little game of political headline battleship and discusses some of the top stories that have stacked the headlines over the past few weeks, with the winner having the honour of welcoming our favourite Conservative, Lynn Harper-Kutchske, back to the podcast.
But before we get to that and although following the rules goes against everything Jeff believes in, he does love showing off how smart he thinks he is, so he and the team dig a little deeper into what is actually takes to get into the race and how the new rules affect the voices of the activists within the party and the ability of candidates to actually enter the race.
During the “Lynnterview” the team asks Lynn to shed a little blue light on how she thinks Trudeau’s Liberal minority is playing out thus far. As the campaign manager for Pierre St. Amant, Lynn shares her insights on how the campaign went from a local perspective and her opinions on John Baird’s post-election report, and where (if anywhere) does the blame lie for letting this one slip through the cracks. The team also talks to Lynn about the current state of the Conservative Party of Canada’s leadership race, and what and who the party and the riding need to take them into the next election.
As always, we end with the team’s favourite segment, “Letters from a Podcast”.
So sit back and enjoy because in the words of our social media guru Josh, “get in loser, we’re going podcasting!”
