What The U.S. Midterm Results Mean For Canada

The U.S. midterm results have seemingly delivered a new era in American politics. On Tuesday, voters helped the Democratic Party take control of the U.S. House and Senate, flipping traditional Republican strongholds and sending a strong message to President Donald Trump.

Doug Saunders, The Globe’s international affairs columnist, joins the show to talk about the ripple effects of the midterms, what it will mean for Carney-Trump relations, and reflects on the power of the U.S. Congress versus presidential powers.
