There's always plenty to chat about with Kady O'Malley.
On Wednesdays, CBCNews.ca's Politics blogger convenes a "people's caucus" to discuss and debate the issues of the week, so far.
Up for debate this week:
- Will the government's controversial online surveillance (C-30) and omnibus crime (C-10) legislation be amended? Should it be? What signs are there (or not) that climbdowns or compromises are possible?
- What should we make of the online campaign against Vic Toews (and his bill), as seen last week with the @Vikileaks tweets and the #TellVicEverything Twitter efforts, or the threats from "anonymous", among others?
- What can we read into the newly-released NDP membership numbers? What do they tell us about how the leadership race is going so far?
