Guest: Susan Delacourt, politics columnist
Former prime minister Brian Mulroney died late last month, and through this week as he’s lain in state, columnist Susan Delacourt has watched the long lines of dignitaries and functionaries who’ve come to greet his family and pay their respects. Delacourt walks us through her own memories and reflections from covering Mulroney’s years in office, including the infamous “roll the dice” interview that some people think sunk the Meech Lake accord and made 1990 one of the most consequential years in Canadian history.
