Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips dissect David Eby’s snap election gamble in British Columbia and Danielle Smith’s search for new enemies after Alberta’s referendum. Was calling the election Eby’s original sin? Why have some political parties become so obsessed with costed platforms and looking serious that they've forgotten how to actually win elections? And will Stephen survive being held accountable for his own political sins at The Strategists Live in Calgary?

Zain Velji, as always, picks the questions and keeps everybody in line.

Live from Edmonton, six days before Alberta’s referendum, Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips game out the final stretch of the campaign. With ten questions on the ballot and campaigns scrambling for every last vote, they break down what the final days could mean for Danielle Smith and Alberta’s future. Can Mark Carney tip the scales for No to the Nine? Will voters actually read the questions, or just vote no to the whole thing? And with six days left to save the country, is it too late to put Stephen Carter in charge of something less consequential?

Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips dive into an emergency episode after Prime Minister Mark Carney explicitly endorses “No to the Nine,” just days before Alberta's referendum. Will Carney's endorsement give the No to the Nine movement a final boost? With more than a million ballots already cast, has he arrived too late to make a difference? And has Mark Carney just made Stephen Carter the most insufferable man in Canadian politics?

Stephen Carter and Shannon Phillips break down the final week of Alberta’s referendum campaign, the conflicting polling on the nine questions, and whether persuasion or voter turnout will decide the outcome. Can the No to the Nine campaign overcome the wording of the questions themselves? Did Mark Carney and the federalists do enough to defend Canada, or does Shannon's referendum report card tell a different story? Plus, a Thanksgiving lightning round to determine which Canadian politicians have the most to be thankful for, and who deserves to be sent to the kids' table.

Stephen Carter and Zain Velji break down the final two weeks of Alberta’s referendum campaign, whether Danielle Smith is on the defensive, and why the separatist movement may already be looking toward the next referendum. What happens to Alberta separatism if the referendum loses? Is another referendum already part of the plan? And at 38% name recognition, when does Stephen Carter just admit he’s a candidate, not a strategist?
