Show Notes

Wab Kinew and the NDP steamrolled the PCs in Manitoba this week to win a convincing electoral majority.

Kinew becomes the first First Nations premier of a Canadian province, and Heather Stefanson has resigned as leader of the PCs.

National Post reporter Tristin Hopper joins the show to discuss why Stefanson failed to resonate with voters, where the PCs stumbled during the campaign, and how the NDP was able to capitalize on that.
