It took Danielle Smith (basically) a year to get her new West Coast pipeline from Ottawa - a massive project with a price tag between 35 to 44 billion dollars. Alberta is pushing for construction to start in less than a year. That timeline is a big t... more
Today we’re reopening the files on what might be the strangest and most shocking Canadian media story in recent memory. The Ottawa Citizen journalist, David Pugliese, who was allegedly compromised by the KGB.
On October 24th, 2024, Chris Alexander, ... more
Who is Daniel Robson?
Since 2025, Robson quickly established himself as a prolific freelance columnist, with bylines in the Ottawa Citizen, the Montreal Gazette, The Hub, Western Standard, and Policy Options.
But there’s one problem: he doesn’t see... more
Earlier this year, we asked you to call in and tell us about news stories that were a big deal in your town, but were not necessarily getting much, if any, national attention. We ended up hearing some incredible stories and even got a few leads out o... more

I can’t listen anymore. Journalism is supposed to be unbiased, and while I know that it never is, this is just to blatantly “here’s our opinion and it’s the only right opinion”.
To me, it often feels more focused on advancing its own narrative than presenting a balanced view.
Jesse Brown said it best himself, “I think that Canada has tendency to take a big moral stands that we can’t necessarily back up.” Um yeah. Wake up up there! You guys were stealing and imprisoning Native children for their entire lives… up until 1997!! 1997!!!! I am 43 years old, so had I been a native person born in Canada, I could have spent my entire childhood and youth separated from my family, because of your loving and compassionate Canadian government.
As usual, they grapple with how to ... more
Wow. I’m so disappointed. Antizionism and antisemitism are not the same thing. At all. I hope someday soon Jesse Brown can overcome his irrational and emotional views on this. Just can’t bring myself to listen to Canadaland any more.
I have been listening to Canadaland for years but only started being a regular listener and subscriber recently. Jesse is a legend (although sometimes a bit much) and I like Noor and most of the other hosts, even though I don’t always agree with the angles presented. Overall, good audio journalism. Keep it up, guys!

The show covers politics, media criticism, policy debates, and Canadian public discourse with a sharp, opinionated lens. Recent discussions span moral economics and life-and-death markets, wartime rhetoric around Israel and antisemitism in public dialogue, defamation and accountability in journalism, energy and tech policy in Canada, and the optics of leadership and messaging from provincial to national scales. A characteristic throughline is skepticism toward official narratives, paired with deep dives into policy, culture wars, and the implications for everyday Canadians. Noteworthy is a willingness to host controversial guests and explore difficult topics with a mix of reportage, analysis, and partisan viewpoints, which can be values-ali... more
