- Every Canadian should listen to this!
I’m a new listener and i’ve been looking for a show like this. The last one i listen to was about defunding the police. Loved hearing sense about a very Canadian problem. This episode gave me tools on how to argue for these policies. ☺️ thanks ✌🏽

Apple Podcasts1OGNDPCanada6 months ago I have had to reevaluate this as a previous supporter. The Breach is undermining it's credibility by failing to fact check itself. The episode reviewing 2025 has completely failed to report who is the Minister of Agriculture in Canada (isn't Kody Blois, it's Heath Macdonald). And what the heck are they referring to about increasing numbers of animals slaughtered? I'm calling bull and a lack of basis is reality. Seriously, why haven't they been fact checking their episodes?
