Le Canada à l’aube d’un scrutin 

D’ici l’automne 2025, les Canadiens devront aller aux urnes. D’ici là, est-ce que Justin Trudeau pourra renverser la vapeur ? Est-ce que Pierre Poilievre deviendra le prochain premier ministre du Canada ? Quels seraient les conséquences de l’élection d’un gouvernement conservateur sur l’économie canadienne et sur nos relations avec les États-Unis ? Comment votre organisation peut influencer le cours de la prochaine campagne électorale? Avec son parcours pendant plus d’une décennie sur la scène fédérale, Marc-André vous aidera à mieux comprendre les enjeux et les forces en présence qui marqueront la prochaine élection fédérale.
