In this week’s episode, we continue our Election Watch! (TM) series and talk about all of the news of the week that could impact how Canadians vote in the (likely) upcoming federal election. For provincial politics, we have a HOT TAKE on the backtracking of the Kenney government on lifting testing, tracking and isolation restrictions for COVID.

For BookReport, Mike read (with his ears, of course) the book First Friends: The Powerful, Unsung (and Unelected) People Who Shaped Our Presidents, which recounts nine very different presidential friendship stories.
