  • Jesse recently said the Canadaland Sub had been taken over by people who didn’t listen to the show.

    Just providing a hard datapoint here before I unsubscribe for good. I have been a fan of the show for many years but I can’t in good conscience continue to consume something he is a part of when his moral and ethical blindspot is so pronounced.

  • One of the Biggest Heel Turn in Canadian Media History

    I used to like this show and its offspring and thought it brought an interesting lens to the Canadian media. That lens has been shattered. The reporters who the show touted have all left rather dramatically without any real explanation Jesse has instead took an institution he and they and perhaps most concerning the money many donors built and decided to leverage the podcasts towards a single issue, in which he takes an extreme position and wields as a battle axe against dissidents in public fo... more

  • High Speed Rail Episode

    Its really interesting listening to this episode, and hearing people talk about “generational farms” and “their land” and how that’s scary to them that it might be lost, or taken away from them. Even the episode’s picture is interesting - smiling, happy white protesters .. I can’t help but think of Canada’s First Nations People - the land that was stolen from them, their fight to protect land from pipelines and protect drinking water, etc, and how photos of their protests are often more militari... more

  • Fake anti-semetism

    Used to be a good show I thought. Its been disappointing to see Jesse glob on this whole antisemitism fraud, that’s just going to erode free speech in this country. Why are all these synagogues always shot up at night when nobody’s there? There’s literally dozens and dozens of examples of Jewish people committing false flag hate crimes against themselves to portray themselves as victims. Where is the proof of antisemitism? I thought journalists need proof? Would be nice to see them talk about Is... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Avi Lewis: the Canadaland Interview
Q: What direction do you want to take the U.S.-Canada relationship and trade policy?
Lewis emphasizes maintaining engagement while protecting Canadian industrial sectors, advocating for greater independence in strategic industries and a more balanced, people-centered approach to trade that avoids over-reliance on any one partner.
The A.I. App for Rich People to Fight Journalists Who Embarrass Them
Q: What about conflicts of interest if the system is hired by a plaintiff who is wealthy or powerful?
The host and Aron acknowledge that concerns exist about fairness and independence, noting设计 critic of a system that is funded or hired by the subject, and discussing safeguards like public data rooms and adversarial process to mitigate bias, though verifiable neutrality remains a critical question.
The A.I. App for Rich People to Fight Journalists Who Embarrass Them
Q: How do the investigators and the AI interact, and what ensures fairness?
Investigators compile findings and the journalist can respond with evidence; AI analyzes both sides' meaning of statements and determines what a neutral reader would understand, aiming to separate intent from interpretation while maintaining transparency.
The A.I. App for Rich People to Fight Journalists Who Embarrass Them
Q: Can you give a brief explanation of what Objection is and how it works?
Objection is a system of accountability for the news media where a complainant can file an objection to a piece of content, a team of investigators and journalists review it, evidence is public, and an AI adjudicator provides a verdict along with potential reputational metrics for the journalist.
Michelle Rempel Garner is Tired of Conservative Drama and Ready to Fight Mark Carney
Q: What is your take on the floor-crossing drama and its impact on Conservative strategy?
Rempel Garner argues that while floor-crossing is a political reality, it underscores the need for strong, policy-driven messaging and attention to core issues like immigration and economic policy to maintain voter trust.
