Pierre Poilievre on the Role of Government, Freedom, and Affordability

We released a special episode of TKP this week with Pierre Poilievre.

While we don’t often tackle politics on the show, we are trying to improve political discourse by offering a platform for both sides to speak with depth and nuance.
