My guest today is someone I’ve been trying to get on the podcast for a while! Elyas Felfoul is an old friend and former colleague who quickly climbed the ranks in Quebec politics and while he was at - what some may describe as - his peak, he decided to completely turn the page and seek new horizons that have brought him to all corners of the world. He is the Director of Policy Development & Partnerships at WISE and he spends quite a bit of time researching, promoting and exposing new ways of educating our future generations. On this episode we talk about his days in Quebec City, the decision to leave it all behind as well as all the work he’s done with WISE. I hope you enjoy this conversation!

My guest today is my very good friend Despina Sourias. She was very recently elected as Montreal City Councillor for the district of Loyola. On this episode we talk about her first campaigning experience, her background and the reasons that motivated her to pursue a career in politics, as well as some challenges that lay ahead during this 4-year mandate. I hope you enjoy the conversation!

My guest today is Joshua Wolfe. He isn't a candidate running for office.

He's a member of the Canadian Senate and although he's not running for a seat in the current federal election, I thought it would be great to discuss the role of Senators during a campaign and to pick his brain on a variety of issues revolving around this election. I hope you enjoy the conversation!
