Here’s what’s on the agenda this week:

HIGH STAKES IN OTTAWA

Amid reports that the Liberals plan to have marijuana legalized by 2018, Ottawa has been abuzz with discussions of the implications and the work that still has to do be done. How will it be taxed? How will it be enforced? And what will legal marijuana mean for the federal government, in general?

RIGHT OF WAY

The Conservative Party’s deadline for leadership candidates to sign up new members has closed. What will this mean for the slate of candidates, all of whom are refusing to budge in quitting the race?

Evan and John will be discussing and debating all these items and more—including questions you bring to the table! Ask yours in the comments section or on the Facebook page during the show to join in the conversation, and remember to subscribe to our Facebook page and tune in every Wednesday, with this week’s Crosstalk airing at 10:00 am ET.
