In this inaugural episode of Hub Politics, Sean Speer is joined by David Coletto, CEO of Abacus Data, and Amanda Galbraith, principal at Oyster Group, to analyse the opening of Parliament and the political landscape facing Prime Minister Carney's government. They discuss Carney's leadership style and the challenges of managing a broad Liberal coalition while preparing a high-stakes federal fall budget. They also examine Pierre Poilievre's strategy of using immigration policy as a wedge issue that could divide the Liberal coalition, and whether the Conservatives can broaden their appeal beyond Poilievre himself.
