This week’s Hub Dialogue Roundtable discusses Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre’s plan to defund the CBC and what it might look like when the idea becomes public policy. Plus, we also talk about new proposals to tighten mortgage lending and what this tells us about the Canadian obsession with real estate.
