And they’re off! Three candidates are in and two to three more are expected. We take a look at who’s in the race to succeed Tom Mulcair and lead the federal NDP. As part of that discussion, we get into the rules of the race, what Guy Caron’s Basic Income idea is all about and whether the Leap Manifesto will come up again.
Then we look at Trudeau’s recent trip to BC and his latest comments on marijuana legalization and drug policy reform.
Finally, we close the show with some quick takes.
