Is Danielle Smith in Trouble?

Conservative premiers may not lose many elections in Alberta, but more than a few have "met their maker" at party AGMs. Amid coordinated attacks from progressives and the right wing, will Danielle Smith emerge unscathed from the UCP's big bash in Red Deer? 

2:00 | Erika Barootes joins us in studio before hitting the highway for the UCP AGM. Cheryl Oates is just back from Saskatchewan, where she quarterbacked the NDP's election campaign. The co-hosts of The Discourse join us for a lively debate about Scott Moe's future in Saskatchewan, David Eby's future in B.C. (21:00), and after a brief break to showcase everybody's Halloween costumes (34:30),  the top political headlines in Alberta (37:00) including the UCP's controversial legislation around parental notification of pronoun changes and gender reassignment surgeries for youth. 

1:03:50 | Who'll it be on November 5: Donald or Kamala? Cheryl, Erika, Johnny, and Ryan go on the record. 

1:11:45 | Brendon and David have zero tolerance for Danielle Smith's "Jordan Peterson Law," Brent is sick and tired of "lazy Canadians and liberal media," and TheSco says Real Talk's pushing misinformation on Trump. Everybody's all fired up for The Flamethrower presented by the DQs of Northwest Edmonton and Sherwood Park!
