  • Decoding Alberta's Political Landscape with Dr. Jared Wesley

    Decoding Alberta's Political Landscape with Dr. Jared Wesley
    2025/07/31

    Welcome back to Building Left, the podcast where hosts Jaime Frederick and Kallee Lins dive into the evolving landscape of social democracy and progressive politics in Canada.

    In this episode, the hosts are joined by Dr. Jared Wesley, a political scientist from the University of Alberta. Dr. Wesley dives into how individual Albertans make sense of their political identity, challenging the stereotypical conservative image of the province, and raises issues like the "spiral of silence" that can keep progressive voices sidelined.

    Join the conversation for political insights that impact ridings across the country. Dr. Wesley's research and experience speaks to the importance of fostering belonging, bridging perceived political divides and communication strategies to find common ground on specific issues.

  • Predetermined Outcomes with Consultation Theatre? The NDP & Bill C-5.

    Predetermined Outcomes with Consultation Theatre? The NDP & Bill C-5.
    2025/06/27

    In this episode, Jaime Frederick and Kallee Lins dive into the latest developments surrounding Bill C-5, the One Canadian Economy Act (also An Act to enact the Free Trade and Labour Mobility in Canada Act and the Building Canada Act), which has sparked significant debate across Canada's political and social landscape.

    Bill C-5, under the justification of removing barriers to development, allows for the sidestepping of crucial environmental assessment laws and Indigenous consultation, and chips away at democratic processes. Critics argue this bill is a corporate giveaway threatening Canada's democratic safeguards; the NDP has worked strategically to expose its deficiencies.

    What does all of this mean for the shifting "centre" of Canadian politics, the possibility of a renewed identity for the NDP and the potential to rebuild electoral success?
