Episode #118 - Former Ontario Premier & Social Justice Advocate - Kathleen Wynne The Dark Room
-
- Society & Culture
Dr. Paul Salvatori speaks with former Ontario Premier and current provincial Member of Parliament, Kathleen Wynne, about how the progressive and social-minded politician entered politics, the activist outlook and philosophy that has guided her throughout her career and even the place of love in the often combative world of politics. As might be expected given the media attention it’s received, the discussion does not shy away from the controversial Ontario sex-ed curriculum Kathleen introduced while Premier. Shedding new light, Kathleen shares how the curriculum was first developed, how she handles the harsh pushback it still receives and, perhaps most importantly, the essential role it plays in the care and education of young people.
Thank you to Wendy Weston, Kathleen’s assistant, for helping coordinate this episode of The Dark Room.
