WELCOME TO THE MWSA PODCAST FOR TUESDAY, DEC. 17TH

What began as a day slated for the release of the Liberal Government’s ‘Fall Fiscal Updated’ – ended with the departure of two high-ranking Ministers – including Deputy Prime Minister, Chrystia Freeland. We ‘unpack’ the events that unfolded on Monday with Mercedes Stephenson – Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief – and Host of “The West Block”.

Next – we continue our conversation on the dynamic start to the week on Parliament Hill with Dr. Alex Marland, Professor of Political Science at Acadia University. We discuss what these two high-profile resignations mean for the Liberal Party moving ahead – and of course, the future of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

And finally - Looking forward to travelling in the new year? Better get an update on some of the new fares for carry-on luggage then! We catch up with “The Travel Lady” – Lesley Keyter – for details on the latest announcement from Air Canada that they will be joining the ranks – of WestJet, now charging passengers for ‘carry on’ luggage.
