This Canadian election will be a sprint, not a marathon. Only 33 days remain! And so, World Report wants to help you find the best election podcast to keep you informed. Today we present House Party, a lively new election chat from the makers of The House. They promise their watch party is not (only) for political nerds.

House Party brings you three hosts (Catherine Cullen, Jason Markusoff, and Daniel Thibeault) in three locations (Ottawa, Alberta and Quebec) who get together on Wednesdays to tackle one big, burning election question. 

Their episode today:

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is catching heat for what she said to Americans about Canada's federal election. In a resurfaced March interview with right-wing media outlet Breitbart, Smith suggested the U.S. pause tariffs to avoid hurting Canadian Conservatives’ electoral chances. She also said Pierre Poilievre is the best leader for Canada because he’s more “in sync” with U.S. President Donald Trump. 

Today on House Party, journalists Catherine Cullen, Jason Markusoff and Daniel Thibeault dig into debate about the differences between Poilievre and Trump, their style, their policies — and why the Conservative candidate needs to straddle a wide swath of beliefs across the political right, if he wants to be elected Prime Minister.
