On this week's episode I talk about Doug Ford's use of the notwithstanding clause. People seem to have a problem, but if a Liberal or NDP Premier used it to stop corporate influence, we'd all agree with it, so why should unions be treated differently. I also talk about Annamie Paul's issues with the Green Party. She immediately rings the "racist sexist" bell.
My guest this week is Matthew Brassard from Ground News. We talk about the app's inception, its future, and prominent media blindspots of the last year.

All of that and more! Plus the "Tweets of the Week" segment.
