Show notes
For just the third time in our country’s history, a sitting monarch delivered the speech from the throne.
On a brief royal visit, King Charles addressed Canadians to lay out the priorities of the new Carney government.
The theme was clear, asserting Canada’s independence and charting a path to end our reliance on the U.S.
But did it hit the mark? Will the Prime Minister hit roadblocks with his ambitious plan?
Host Cormac Mac Sweeney speaks with Lori Williams, a political scientist at Mount Royal University in Calgary.
