What questions do you have about the future of the NDP?

The federal NDP was nearly wiped off the electoral map in last week's election. Jagmeet Singh stepped down as party leader after the New Democrats dropped to seven seats, and lost its official party status. So where does the NDP go from here? We'll have two guests to take your questions about what's next for the party. Send your questions to cbc.ca/myquestion. 

What questions do you have about "situationships"?

Have you ever been in a "sort-of" relationship? If you're more than friends but not quite partners, if the definitions are fuzzy and the commitments are loose. You might be in a "situationship".

For some people, situationships are liberating because there are no labels and no expectations. For others, a situationship is an anxiety-causing waiting game.

What questions do you have about situationships or relationships in general? Are you in a situationship? Not sure? Call! We've booked two guests to answer your questions. Jessica Maxwell is an assistant professor at McMaster University whose research focuses on interpersonal relationships and sexuality. And Jen Kirsch is a relationship expert and journalist. They'll be around to answer your questions. Send your questions to cbc.ca/myquestion.
