Customer Reviews
Rob Huebert, Canada’s defences
Great discussion on our defences, or lack thereof. Has been lots if coverage on how bad Canada’s National defence has become, but i had no idea it was as actually almost totally useless compared to our adversaries capabilities. Makes me wonder if we can catch up- don’t believe for a second we have the ability with our current Government
Arctic Defence

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge and Guests
Just discovered this podcast to my absolute delight. Peter and his guests speak frankly and so intelligently about Canadian national and international issues that I feel as if I’m attending graduate level seminars covering the latest news, with critical historical perspectives. Thank you Peter for producing these important discussions!
