Deep Think and Intelligent Conversation
What a great show. Always guest I may not have heard of but they seem to be people of influence and insiders speaking truth to error as the host says. I highly recommend listening to David Leis and his guests. The conversations have been valuable and informative. This has helped to to understand better what is happening in Canada.
Not a “return to reason”
If you believe in climate change, and everything else that’s logical and ethical, this is not the podcast for you. Canada can do much better without this particular “leader”.
