Budget week on Parliament Hill turned into political chaos after Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre lost two MPs in just days — one crossing the floor to the Liberals, another resigning. Catherine Cullen speaks with Conservative strategist Kate Harrison and Liberal strategist Marci Surkes about what this means for Poilievre’s leadership and whether more departures could follow. Plus, Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne defends the budget, Conservative House leader Andrew Scheer explains why his party won’t back it, and economists Goldy Hyder, Armine Yalnizyan and Sahir Khan debate whether this budget can deliver growth without worsening the cost-of-living crunch.
