Regina is getting ready to Shake the Lake at the Conexus Arts Centre. The annual festival runs today and tomorrow, featuring artists like STYX, Burton Cummings, 54-40, and Regina's own Jack Semple. The Juno-winning Semple grew up in Regina before moving to Toronto to play for The Lincolns. Since then he's been pursuing his solo career, touring across Canada and the United States. He'll be playing at Shake the Lake Saturday at 4:30 p.m., but first he joins the show to catch up with John.

Elizabeth May and her Green Party have been making waves recently, after polling showed their support was equal to the NDP, and some polls even had them ahead.

Wilson joins Gormley now to discuss his exchange with Trudeau's former principal secretary.
