Get off my lawn! The fed-prov home building battle

The House

13-04-2024 • 48 mins

Everyone agrees that Canada has a housing crisis, but coming to consensus — and executing on — solutions is not quite so easy. Alberta looked to put up a wall between the federal government and municipalities this week, and Premier Danielle Smith joins The House to talk about why. Then, the federal housing minister responds.


The public inquiry into foreign interference in Canadian elections also had some big-name witnesses this week — not least the prime minister. Canada’s former top spy sits down to walk through what we learned.


Plus — some of the top movers and shakers from the Canadian political right gathered in Ottawa for a conference this week. Two journalists break down what they focused on, and what it could mean for a future Conservative government.


This episode features the voices of:


  • Alberta Premier Danielle Smith
  • Housing Minister Sean Fraser
  • Richard Fadden, former NSIA, former head of CSIS
  • Campbell Clark, The Globe and Mail
  • Jen Gerson, The Line
