Alright … Michelle Rempel Garner is our guest this week, making her second appearance here on The Herle Burly! You all know the Conservative Member for Calgary Nose Hill: she’s a vocal force, both within her own party, and in The House. Ms. Rempel Garner is a former cabinet minister in Stephen Harper’s government.

She’s been an effective shadow minister for a number of portfolios and when I say she’s a vocal force, part of the reason for that is her nuanced, long-form Substack writing on a variety of complex social and public policy issues. As Michelle says … “No talking points. No speech writers.”

We’re going to dive a little deeper into that today. Her observations on a changing media landscape, the role of the CBC, and how to connect with people in non-traditional ways.

We’ll get her thoughts on the current government from the perspective of an opposition MP.

We’ll also get into the current state of the Conservative Party of Canada, and how she feels about leadership in general … both Poilievre’s and Trudeau’s.

And finally, we’ll get her observations on the Alberta Election!
