Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What to know ahead of tonight's debate
Q: How much would you do if you were Brad Bradford on that topic?
Tory advises Bradford not to call Chow a liar directly, but to correct the claim calmly, pivot to affordability, and avoid spending too much time on an issue that is not a strong one for him.
What to know ahead of tonight's debate
Q: What is the overall goal of these sort of things? Do you just want to keep things between the lines, Deb?
Hutton says candidates should identify the central message they want voters to remember, reinforce it through their words and body language, and avoid alienating voters rather than taking an unnecessary risk for a dramatic moment.
The aftermath of last night's debate
Q: What do you think this session will be about?
Siobhan Morris says affordability is a concern across opposition parties, while the government is emphasizing industry, business and measures such as speeding up archaeological assessments and expanding access to digital IDs.
The aftermath of last night's debate
Q: What did you take away from the debate? Do you think it'll change minds? Do you think it'll move any numbers in these last weekend?
Alex Chreston says most voters have already settled on a candidate, and that debate coverage generally has limited reach. He sees a close race and interprets Chow's recent campaign activity as an effort to shore up her base.
Tariffs to drop on some Canadian goods, says U.S. senator
Q: Why the Terry Fox Foundation? I mean, there's there are needs throughout our community. What made your family's decision to donate 25 million to the Terry Fox Foundation?
Julie Tanenbaum-Albert says Terry Fox united Canadians around the potential of cancer research. The foundation supports medical research, precision medicine, genetic sequencing, open science, and equitable access, and the federal match will bring the donation's impact to $50 million.
