The Andrew Lawton Show

Liberal MP backtracks after calling for review of Trudeau’s leadership


Listen Later

For a brief moment this week, it looked like Justin Trudeau was facing criticism from inside his own house when Avalon member of Parliament Ken McDonald indicated support for a leadership review. However, soon after McDonald backtracked and praised Trudeau’s abilities as a campaigner while assuring people he wasn’t seeking a review. While it isn’t all that believable, it shows that Trudeau still has a tight grip on his caucus with no room for dissent, True North’s Andrew Lawton says.

Also, thousands of people came out in Alberta yesterday to hear from Tucker Carlson as well as Premier Danielle Smith, Jordan Peterson, Conrad Black, and W. Brett Wilson. True North’s Rachel Emmanuel joins the show to talk about what went down.

Plus, what does the Federal Court’s smackdown of Trudeau’s use of the Emergencies Act mean for civil liberties in Canada? Lawyer James Manson of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms weighs in.
