About this episode
Politicians of all stripes are out in full force at the Calgary Stampede, squeezing into jeans and cowboy boots. This year's focus: The upcoming referendum on Alberta separatism. Federal politicians are there in droves making their case for national unity. Independent pollster Janet Brown and CBC writer and producer Jason Markusoff join guest host Catherine Cullen to talk Stampede politics. And we'll hear what some Albertans are thinking when it comes to their province's future in the federation.
