Each week, the Maclean’s Ottawa bureau sits down to discuss the stories behind the week’s stories in our politics podcast, On The Hill.

They also gather in the OMNI studios to talk about the stories that matter. This week, the bureau chats about the criminal trial of Sen. Mike Duffy and the coming federal budget, which Finance Minister Joe Oliver will reveal in the House of Commons on April 21.
