August 02, 2019

Host Sarah Turnbull is joined by /Thread panelists Shannon Proudfoot of Maclean's and David Reevely of The Canadian Press. The trio discuss: the House foreign affairs committee's decision to squash a proposed investigation into alleged pressure by the Prime Minister's Office to filter comments by former ambassadors over the Canada-China dispute, how the delay of USMCA ratification impacts Canada, and the probability, or lack thereof, of President Trump's plan to import cheaper pharmaceuticals from Canada to the U.S.
