In the first part of a two-part conversation, Ricochet editor and co-founder Derrick O’Keefe joins Unpacking the News to talk about the political and media fallout over the settlement.

And, as the candidates met for their fifth debate in Saskatoon this week, we discuss the state of the race in the run-up to the October NDP leadership vote.

Part two of this conversation, breaking down the state of B.C. politics and the first NDP-Green government in Canadian history, is available as a bonus episode on iTunes. Be sure to subscribe on iTunes to get every episode delivered straight to your devices.
