At a time of serious conflict with our neighbours to the south, perhaps a more concerning conflict might be coming from within. As calls for separation in places like Alberta grow louder, it brings up the question of how a nation can operate with respective regional interests? And, can Canada keep itself from coming apart? Joining to discuss these regional tensions are former premier of Alberta, Jason Kenney; Martha Hall Findlay, a former MP and director of the School of Public Policy and Palmer Chair at the University of Calgary; Felix Mathieu, Professor in the Department of Law at the Université du Quebec en Outaouais and co-editor of the Canadian Journal of Political Science; and John Ibbitson, journalist, writer and co-author with Darrell Bricker for their forthcoming book, "Breaking Point: The Big Shifts That Put Canada at Risk." They join Steve Paikin to discuss.
