April 3 - Inside The Republican Money Machine; Did Obama's Mandate Miscalculate the Courts, the Politics and the Policy Itself?; How the Canadians See the Keystone Pipeline and American Politics

Full Program

Part 1

Part 2

Then we speak with Paul Starr, a Pulitzer Prize-winning professor of Sociology and Public Affairs at Princeton who wrote an article back in January for the New Republic “The Health Care Mandate Really Was a Mistake” which argued that the President miscalculated about the courts, the politics and the policy itself. He is the author of a new book “Remedy and Reaction: The Peculiar American Struggle Over Health Care Reform”.

Part 3

Then finally we explore what the President and the Canadian Prime Minister said little about after yesterday’s “Three Amigos” summit, that is the contentious Keystone XL pipeline which is no longer about U.S/Canada relations, but domestic U.S. politics. Rodrique Tremblay joins us. He is a Professor Emeritus of Economics and International Finance at the University of Montreal and was a member of the Committee of Dispute Settlements of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
