From John To Justin
Join me as I look at the politics of Canada, from the time of Sir John A. Macdonald to Justin Trudeau. I look at every prime minister, every election, every opposition leader, every governor general and every premier.
See why some made their marks, why some are terrible, and learn all the crazy stories of our political history.
