The World's Big Election Year (And What It Means For Canada)
Listen now
Description
It's a big year for elections, with voters heading to the polls in 64 countries representing nearly half of the world's population. How some of those votes turn out will have a major impact on Canada. In this episode, Graeme Thompson, senior analyst with Eurasia Group's Global Macro-Geopolitics practice, joins us to break down what's happening in elections in India, Mexico, the UK, and — of course — the United States, what the likely outcomes are, and what it means for Canada. Ed. note: The audio is a bit messier than usual on this one, but it should still be listenable.
