This week on The Writ Podcast, I’m handing the hosting job over to you and answering your questions!
Earlier this week, I reached out to founding members of The Writ and other subscribers who have been supporting me since Day 1 to solicit questions about politics — federal, provincial and municipal.
I received some great ones and I’ve tried to answer them all. When I couldn’t, I’ve asked some special guests to join me.
Here’s a sampling of some of the questions tackled in this episode:
What’s the future for Justin Trudeau as leader of the Liberal Party?
What does the data say about where the Green Party is headed?
Is British Columbia swinging to the left?
Could Danielle Smith’s Alberta Sovereignty Act pass constitutional muster?
How could the Saskatchewan NDP ever return to government?
If I could cover any election in Canada’s history, which would it be?
There’s lots more in the podcast, and thanks to special guests Aaron Wherry, David Coletto, Sally Housser and Martin Olszynski for lending their expertise!

Episode #56: Let's take some questions
I haven't listened yet, but the decision around who got to ask questions has brought up a few questions for me. How many founding/"since Day 1" subscribers does the Writ have? How many paying subscribers? How many people receive the newsletter for free? Now those are some numbers I'm curious about. It sounds as if the Writ must be a smashing success.
Thank you so much for answering my questions. Really appreciate your digging. On the media consumption issue, The Line has a good segment on it: https://theline.substack.com/p/experimental-the-line-podcast-episode-30f?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email#details
