Substance, Style & Signals: Mark Carney’s First Session in Parliament

In this episode of The Swing, we dive into the machinery of Canadian democracy with a timely review of the 45th Parliament under Prime Minister Mark Carney following his first sitting session.

So — did the PM have a successful first season? Pendulum's Yaroslav Baran, a seasoned political and parliamentary expert, joins Heather Bakken to break down what has been accomplished.

Carney’s governing style is already reshaping federal politics. What about the nuts and bolts of the passage of priority legislation, and what it really means? How does Bill C-5, the government’s central economic legislation, promise to unite Canada’s internal economy and streamline major projects amid trade tensions with the U.S.?

We pull back the curtain on the hidden power of Parliamentary committees over the summer recess, assess where things stand with the Canada-U.S. trade file and explore how Carney’s team is navigating the next phase.

Hop on the swing and listen in.
