Kathy Brock - Questions to Ask Yourself Before You Vote

With Canada heading to the polls on April 28th, 2025, voters across the country are weighing some big questions. Should we re-elect the incumbent party or opt for change? Who’s best positioned to lead the country—and how will the next government navigate the relationship with the U.S.? Should we be focusing on local candidates or national leaders?

In this episode, recorded on April 9th, we explore these questions and more with Dr. Kathy Brock, Professor Emerita in the School of Policy Studies and Department of Political Studies at Queen’s University. A leading expert in Canadian public policy and administration, Dr. Brock offers non-partisan insights to help listeners think critically as election day approaches.

This conversation is meant to inform, not persuade—and to offer some food for thought as you prepare to cast your vote.
