This week on The Midnight Choir, Isaac and Savannah discuss a few stories in depth. They follow up last week's discussion of harm reduction with another dive into the recent statements by federal opposition leader Pierre Poillievre, as well as discussing the $500 million payment from Loblaws to settle a lawsuit for the bread price-fixing scandal, following that with a discussion about corporate overreach and the how the Canadian government could properly respond. They also discuss the seriously problematic enforcement of language laws in Quebec's healthcare system and their restrictions on care being provided in English.
