Event description
Senator James Cowan, Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, takes you inside the Senate – its politics, culture, troubles, and successes – and the possibilities for its future.
Is there a role for the Red Chamber? Can we improve it without opening up the Constitution? How do we achieve “sober second thought” in a polarized political climate? What is an independent Liberal Senator, and what could Justin Trudeau’s vision for the Senate look like in practical terms?
