“Rosemary and Elamin really mesh well and make a good duo. I’m not sure why CBC stopped producing episodes when it has the same reviews as At Issue.”

“I used to love this podcast. Now that CBC has temporarily cancelled it they’re using it to advertise other random podcasts. I was still subscribed in case they brought it back. But I think I’ll cancel now as this is very annoying.”

“Rosemary complains way too much, and the hosts don’t cover the elections objectively. This podcast is way too pro liberal”

“As far as I’m concerned they’ve dropped the ball on election coverage by not outlining the parties platforms. Not enough thorough analysis. Why not have experts that can articulate they’re stance on an issue?”

“With the next federal election around the corner, I’m grateful for Party Lines. I have some issues with how other shows are so stiff. My brain just can’t sit through a half hour of those shows. I can’t even sit through the talks the leaders have, they’re posturing and I don’t like it.
But I can...”Read full review »

“I really love this podcast. For me, it is one of the only politics podcast I have come across where it educates their audience with Canadian politics and not American (even though this podcast does cover some major American politics which is totally fine because that content is minimal). It is...”Read full review »

“As an immigrant and someone who is proud to be involved in law enforcement and work closely with RCMP I am appalled by the this wokeness that is only dividing Canada! CBC turned into a woke self loathing irrelevant propaganda machine that is a sad outcome of the new political correctness. Canada...”Read full review »

“Are we really so bored of Canada that a podcast dedicated to Canadian politics must resort to American politics instead?
I really loved this podcast when it first came out - finally a podcast with a fresh take on Canadian politics! The hosts are both awesome and their banter is amazing....”Read full review »

“This podcast could be so much more. Both hosts are on their game when discussing content. But more and more they try too hard on making jokes, talking about their own lives, especially Rosemary Barton. It is just weird and takes a lot of the podcast time from actual content.”

“This is entertaining, but the bias of the hosts to support the LIberal Party of Canada in all situations is becoming evident. Rename it to “Rosemary defends Justin”.
It’s entertaining to watch journalistic standards evaporate at least.”

“Pretty good but they don’t share enough of the insider-ish perspective I was hoping for when I subscribed. It seems like I hear too much of their personal feelings on the news.
Also, every week they ask for submissions from people on a topic but don’t share what people submitted to them. They...”Read full review »

“Honestly how can you talk about the electoral reform debate as if the opposition parties didn’t completely sewer the process? Cons wanted no change and NDP wanted pie-in-the-sky changes. If the Libs had made changes despite the opposition, they’d have been smeared as undemocratic.”
