#198 - Why is the Divide in Canada Larger than Ever?

#198 - Why is the Divide in Canada Larger than Ever?

In such a divided country we see today we unravel the complex layers surrounding freedom of expression in Canada. First on the docket is the controversial issue of Trudeau's government censoring journalists, a critical examination into the delicate balance between national security and press freedom.

Delving into the political arena, we dissect Trudeau's headline-grabbing speech at the Press Gallery dinner last year, exploring the boundaries of humour, accountability, and statesmanship in the highest office. The fallout and public reactions are laid bare in this revealing discussion.

On the floor of the House of Commons, we confront the fiery exchanges and inflammatory statements that have marked recent political discourse. As words become weapons, we scrutinize the impact of heated rhetoric on Canadian democracy and the need for civil debate in the corridors of power.

Shifting gears, we explore Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre's compelling new documentary, "Housing Hell." Poilievre takes us on a journey through the housing crisis, shedding light on the struggles faced by Canadians in their quest for affordable homes. We delve into the documentary's revelations, its potential to drive change, and the broader implications for housing policies in Canada.
