PolitiCoast celebrates the end of 2017 with a look back at the year that was and some predictions for 2018. Along with some comments on the recent CMHC/Statistics Canada housing data, Conservatives facing nomination battles and Trudeau’s hot water over his last Christmas trip.

Note: Our recorder filled up around the start of the #bcpoli retrospective, so we re-recorded it but forgot to hit record. Luckily third time’s a charm but it meant we were exhausted by the end of this marathon recording session.
