On Episode 552 of our show, we explore Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announcing his eventual step aside as leader of the Liberal Party of Canada (and Prime Minister), following the results of the new party membership race.

We also conclude our year in review by speaking about journalists, influencers, activists, and stories about or affecting the Indigenous community.

Today we also talk about:

* Vanishing Cream Award: Pierre Poilievre 

* Political Literacy Moment: Yay, Civics! Are We Leaderless?

* Dark Justin Enters the Room

* PeePee Can't Pivot 

* Danielle Smith Can't Say Canada Is Sovereign 

* Commenting the PM's Step Aside

* Electoral Reform

* The Contenders and Pretenders

* David Olive: Canadians Became Wealthier Under Trudeau

The Daily Beaver Morning Show is broadcast LIVE (most of the time), weekdays at 7-ish a.m. Eastern (tech willing). 

Until next time, be kind to — and gentle with — yourselves,

Your Eager Beaver and Mr. Grizzly
