#CdnPoli | Curse of Politics #Cdn Politics Blasphemed

Today, VanRamblings leaves you in the capable hands of …

  • David Herle, host of the Curse of Politics podcast, longtime Liberal strategist and pollster, frequent CBC News commentator, principal in the Gandalf Research Group, and in 2013 Ontario Liberal Party campaign manager in that year’s election, which afforded Kathleen Wynne a come-from-behind victory, electing her as Premier;
  • Scott Reid, Director of Communications for former Prime Minister Paul Martin, and current CTVNews’ political commentator — both Mr. Herle and Mr. Reid proudly successful 40-year veterans of federal (and provincial) Liberal politics;
  • Kory Teneycke, former Director of Communications in Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s office, and 2018 campaign manager for Doug Ford’s Ontario Progressive Conservative Party during that year’s election, which elected Mr.  Ford Premier; and
  • Jordan Leichnitz, an NDP stalwart, longtime progressive political strategist who worked for over a decade in the offices of former federal NDP leader, Jack Layton, and current NDP leader Jagmeet Singh,  and CBC Power & Politics commentator.

The four Curse of Politics panelists discuss the state and nature of federal politics in Canada, providing delightfully profane insight into what the heck is going in Canadian federal politics, the issues of the week, and more, much much more.


The Curse of Politics is also available as an Apple, Android and Spotify podcast.
