It’s official: the Liberals have a minority government. 

They’ve got ambitious plans, and they’ve made big promises. But even though they got a substantial 44 per cent of the popular vote, they’re now leading a country where 41 per cent of voters coalesced around their biggest opponent, the Conservatives. And they’re still dealing with Donald Trump’s trade war.

Today, Paul Wells — a longtime political journalist who also publishes a Substack under his own name —  joins us to talk about the Liberals’ path forward.
