Show Notes
Today, we're looking at the ongoing drama over ballots in the byelection for Battle River—Crowfoot, where Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is looking to secure a seat so he can return to the House of Commons, after Elections Canada announced voters would be submitting write-in ballots after activists submitted an enormous list of candidates.
Plus, Ontario Premier Doug Ford has flip-flopped on his previous statement about granting work permits to asylum seekers as the country struggles with unemployment, especially among young people.
And finally, while some premiers have signed agreements on potential pipeline projects, Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew remains a holdout despite previous statements supporting national unity projects.

Peter Wrenshall commented 2025-07-29 18:22:40 -0400The "Long Ballot Committee’ stunt in Battle River-Crowfoot is a clear-cut case of electoral sabotage. Don’t for a second believe their high-minded claims that it is a protest agsinst the first-past-the post system, especially when in the only two times they used this tactic Pierre Poilievre was running. Elections Canada should be requesting a criminal investigation instead of futzing around with DEI. I would venture to say that at at least a few high-placed Liberal names will turn up in such an investigation. Maybe that’s why they are sidestepping the issue by replacing the standard ballot with a write-in ballot, which would at hamper Poilievre at least as heavily.
