Maclean’s on the Hill: Premier Gallant, Ted Hsu, and Paul Calandra
Each week, the Maclean’s politics team and Cormac MacSweeney sit down to hash out the week’s news in Ottawa. This week, John Geddes talks to the incoming premier of New Brunswick, Brian Gallant; Paul Wells talks to former British MP David Milliband about the crises in Iraq and Syria, Aaron Wherry sits down with Liberal MP Ted Hsu to discuss Hsu’s decision to not seek re-election, and we try to make sense of the week that Paul Calandra made us question our democracy.
