US President Joe Biden's 27-hour visit to Ottawa dominated the news cycle across the country: was that the whole point? Today's expert guests analyze the key moments, the distractions, and the bigger picture around POTUS in Canada. 

In other news, two Edmonton Police officers killed March 16 will be honoured today with a regimental funeral and procession. Ryan opens the show with a few thoughts about the service for Travis Jordan and Brett Ryan.

3:33 | Trade, jobs, and security were top of the list when POTUS and PMJT met in Ottawa for the first time since Biden was elected. Kathleen Petty, host of CBC's West of Centre podcast, explains how the average Canadian can evaluate the value of these visits, and makes an important point about interruptions to the news cycle. 

38:18 | No doubt provoked by Kathleen Petty's promise he'd "light the house on fire," Charles Adler rolls red hot into today's show. See for yourself what led the Titan of Talk to grab his Emmy off the shelf (literally)! Chuck says the Conservatives dropped the ball during Biden's visit.

57:55 | How did 14-year-old journalist Wyatt Sharpe wind up with a press pass to cover POTUS' visit from the front row? The host of The Wyatt Sharpe Show brings his unique blend of youthfulness and informed insight, and takes us behind the scenes of his biggest assignment to date.
