  • Excellent podcast!

    This is my go-to when brushing up on my knowledge of Canadian history, pop culture and the events that have impacted who we are as Canadians. My personal favourite episode is “the Golden Era of Canadian Comics: the Wartime Era.” I think this is the perfect time to resurrect Adrian Dingle’s super-heroine, Nelvana, protector of the North!
