31. Voices of Kensington will Ring in Ottawa w/Serena Purdy

31. Voices of Kensington will Ring in Ottawa w/Serena Purdy

Serena Purdy is a comparative health policy researcher at the University of Toronto and socialist candidate who ran in the recent 2025 University-Rosedale federal byelection. We talk about what the upcoming three years of Carney austerity means for healthcare and housing, how electoral organizing doubles as political education, the fight to enfranchise unhoused voters, and why Kensington Market — Serena's neighbourhood and spiritual home — is both microcosm and proof of concept for the kind of city we could build. From the Canada Health Act's gutted enforcement to Carney's mysterious sovereign wealth fund, we examine the stakes of federal power for working-class communities, and talk about refusing to go down without a fight.
