Episode 240 – Deconstructing Alberta’s election

In this episode, Sandy and Nora talk about the Alberta election: authenticity, Danielle Smith and playing to people’s emotions rather than people’s brains.

Episode 143 – anti-mask fascism

In this episode, Sandy and Nora talk about the rise of anti-Asian racism, the connection between the anti-mask movement and how Canada’s mainstream media has written about China since the start of the pandemic. We also take a short tour of the latest Liberal scheme: the NDP’s student debt promise.

Episode transcript.

Episode 59 – Can we learn from what just happened in Alberta?

Sandy and Nora talk Alberta — finally! There are many lessons to be learned from how the Alberta NDP governed, how Jason Kenney governs himself, and what they’ve said is in store for Alberta under a UCP government. We dive into the details and project what this all means for the upcoming Canadian election.
