ALBERTA: TOTAL RECALL

In this week’s Politics Is Broken:

• The death of “statesmanlike” behaviour

• Trump’s “quiet, quiet, piggy” moment and Ford’s “get a job” clapback

• How recall actually works in Alberta (and why there are so many petitions)

• What other countries do with recall… and why it’s so rare

• Whether recall is a dangerous precedent or a much-needed pressure valve

• And why this all “smells a little like hope” in a grim political year
