Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberals are eager to convert their minority government into a majority, before the public can find out more about how the federal government mishandled Canadian preparation and response for the coronavirus pandemic.

An election would’ve happened in the spring, but for the coronavirus vaccine supply shortages.

Hear highlights of the last two weeks, inside and outside the House of Commons, as the Trudeau Liberals have become an even bigger magnet for controversy.

Charges of corruption, coverup and scandal were flying fast and furious, as leaders of the big three national parties previewed their messages for the next campaign.

Hear what Trudeau says when Conservative leader Erin O’Toole asks if he will commit to following the law.

Plus Pacific Rim and Pacific Northwest headlines.
