Carney's high-stakes budget and rumblings of a snap election
Manage episode 516974868 series 3306948
In this special episode of the Roundtable, Rudyard Griffiths is joined by Hub Politics' David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data, and Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, to discuss the Carney government's upcoming budget and the potential for a snap election. They examine whether Canadians view the budget as the pivotal moment the government claims it to be, explore Carney's communication challenges, and debate whether the complexity of the budget will help or hurt the Liberals politically.
On the back half of the show, they discuss the strategic calculations facing the parties as the possibility of a snap election looms, with particular focus on how ongoing uncertainty in Canada-U.S. relations under Trump continues to benefit Carney's political positioning. In the remaining moments, they discuss Poilievre's new youth-focused messaging that attempts to reframe him as more optimistic than negative.
