10/3 podcast: Pierre Poilievre’s U.S. tour and the Joe Rogan effect: Can it move the needle?

March 25, 2026

This year has been an up-and-down year for federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre.

He is back in the House of Commons as leader of the Official Opposition and got an overwhelming show of support from delegates at the party’s convention in Calgary, but his party’s support is stalling in national polls, and the Carney Liberals could garner a majority with a series of byelection wins.

Poilievre recently embarked on a trip to the U.S., where he met with officials and business leaders, which culminated in a highly publicized appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience.

National Post politics reporter Stephanie Taylor joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss why Poilievre opted to make an appearance on Rogan’s podcast, why it was potentially a political win and whether the appearance helps sell him to potential voters in Canada.

Technology in vehicle headlights has advanced in recent years, allowing drivers to see the roads better under pitch-black skies. However, they might work a little too well, as oncoming drivers could be blinded by the light they generate. And to nobody’s surprise, complaints are going up, which has triggered a new survey from Transport Canada. They are collecting responses from drivers on its website about the brightness of headlights and what, if anything, should be done about it. The survey runs until April 20th.
