Canadian Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre sat down with popular podcaster Joe Rogan for a conversation that touched on Canada's assisted dying laws, fitness and US tariffs.
Ahead of the episode's release, Poilievre said his main goal was to argue for removing tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump on Canada, saying it is beneficial for both countries.
"We need to harness the goodwill of the American people, and what better place to do it than on the biggest podcast in the world," Poilievre said.
The episode was part of a US tour the Conservative opposition leader made this week to increase his international profile as he lags in the polls behind Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
Poilievre started the conversation with Rogan by presenting him with a kettlebell made in Canada, embossed with a maple leaf.
