CTV News’ Rachel Aiello breaks down the biggest political news from Ottawa and explains the stories you need to watch coming up.
This week? MPs burned the midnight oil as the Liberals try to quickly clear a legislative logjam ahead of tabling the 2024 federal budget, for which the billions just kept rolling this week. How will Freeland finance all this new spending? Rachel breaks that down.
Plus, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s latest carbon tax motion got the backing of the NDP and Bloc.
The Capital Dispatch Quote of the Week is courtesy of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, testifying at the public inquiry into foreign interference – here’s what to know and why it matters.
Finally, Rachel highlights a historic and rare moment happening in the House of Commons next week: MPs are summoning Kristian Firth of GC Strategies, to be admonished for refusing to answer MPs’ questions about the app contracting debacle.
