Noor Azrieh talks to Jesse Brown about his new Canadaland series, “What Is Happening Here?”
loading . . .
Our Own Jewish-Arab Peace Talk
It’s no secret that Jesse Brown and Canadaland have had more than a few struggles, online and in the office, since October 7. But, eventually, Jesse Brown swore off Twitter and then the dust (and the office) settled, mostly. Now Jesse is about to launch a new series where he travels across Canada, mic in hand, to talk with rabbis, activists, politicians, scholars, artists, Muslims, and Jews. People whose lives haven’t been the same since October 7.

Elizabeth May on Holding the Balance of Power
There’s chaos in Ottawa! Green Party leader Elizabeth May doesn’t want to ruin Christmas with an election… but she says she will if Mark Carney doesn’t budge. And in B.C., a court ruling is throwing private property rights —and maybe even Canada’s map — into question. Host Noor gets the story from The Tyee’s Andrew MacLeod.

Kudos on the open-minded episode! I would have liked to have heard a conservative endorsing immigration (or even accepting its necessity) because I feel like they’re able to reap the rewards of being “anti-immigration” and earning the votes of every xenophobe when they know we need immigrants.
