John Carter - Oh Canada :-/

This podcast explores the recent Canadian election, what Canadians can do to protect themselves, what is likely to happen next and the similarities between Canadian & UK politics

Today’s podcast guest is John Carter of the superb Postcards From Barsoom

In this podcast, we focus mainly on the recent Canadian election and discuss:

  • Political structural powers

  • The geographic and voting layout of Canada

  • Why John Carter was NOT surprised at the recent result
