Episode Description

The Conservative Party of Canada is in Calgary this weekend for their national convention, where Pierre Poilievre's leadership will be voted on.

Poilievre has drawn the ire of the Coastal First Nations coalition in British Columbia over his social media posts.

The Heiltsuk Nation are coalition members. They're calling Poilievre's posts dangerous disinformation.

Now, questions are being asked about who the coalition speaks for.

Our Truth & Politics panel is here to sort it out.

Joining the discussion are Jennifer Laewetz of Paskwâw Strategies and Niigaan Sinclair with the Winnipeg Free Press.
