BC Conservatives fire Lindsay Shepherd over tweet on residential schools

In this segment of This Week in Politics on "The Ben Mulroney Show", Ben welcomes back guests Dimitri Soudas, Former Director of Communications for Stephen Harper, and Max Fawcett, Lead Columnist for Canada's National Observer. The trio explore the implications of free speech in political roles, particularly focusing on the case of Lindsay Shepherd, a BC Conservative Party communications staffer (and herself no stranger to free speech debates) who was fired by the party for her public statements regarding Truth & Reconciliation day. The line between free speech and professional responsibility is complex but political staff must balance personal beliefs with party representation. The discussion then moves on to innovative trade proposals from Indigenous nations, highlighting both the potential and challenges of such initiatives.
