Description
We’re a week into parliament's new session, and things are getting ugly. Justin Trudeau is trying on a new attitude, Jagmeet Singh ripped up the Supply and Confidence Agreement and Pierre Poilievre is doing everything he can to force an election as soon as possible.

Our panelists Max Fawcett, Brian Platt and Shannon Phillips try to make sense of it all.
