Summary
February 6, 2026 - Is John Rustad going to take another run at BC Conservative leader? We discuss the pros and cons of such a wild idea. Plus, a look at the upcoming spring session of the legislature, from the throne speech to the budget. And, the premier refocuses on the extortion crisis. Plus, in audio extras, BC follows Ottawa's lead in scrapping EV mandates, and a new bombshell forestry report suggests generational change to the system. Host Rob Shaw is joined by JoJo Beattie, Jeff Ferrier and Angelo Isidorou. Brought to you by Uber Canada.
