    A Wine Critic Spills All

    A Wine Critic Spills All

    André Proulx is a wine writer who has worked for Newstalk 1010, CTV News, Quench Magazine, and Toronto Life. As dollars in traditional media disappear for journalists, it’s getting harder and harder to make money writing lifestyle content — including wine writing. In today’s landscape, is one of Canada’s most influential wine writers double-dipping, taking money from both The Toronto Star - and the people who represent the wines she’s reviewing?
    To discuss the current landscape of wine writing André spoke with Chris Waters, wine writer for the Globe and Mail, and Rick VanSickle of Wines in Niagara. To explain how wine sales with the LCBO works he spoke with Ben Hardy of Vintage Selector wines, tech experts Carmi Levy and Dan Spearin, and media lawyer Miro Oballa.

    (Détours) Rima Elkouri : 25 ans de nuances

    Le 10 septembre 2001, Rima Elkouri devient chroniqueuse au journal La Presse. Le 11 septembre 2001, elle devient chroniqueuse arabe. Rima se joint à Emilie pour réfléchir aux histoires nécessaires et nuancées qu'elle écrit depuis les 25 dernières années. Puis, dix ans après la présentation de la Charte des valeurs québécoises à l’Assemblée nationale, est-ce qu’il y a eu une évolution dans les médias québécois sur le sujet de la laïcité ? 
    On September 10, 2001, Rima Elkouri became a columnist for La Presse. On September 11, 2001, she became an Arab columnist. Rima joins Emilie to reflect on the necessary and nuanced stories she has written over the course of the past 25 years. And ten years after the Parti québécois presented the Quebec Charter of Values to the National Assembly, has the subject of secularism evolved in Quebec media?

    (Short Cuts) Cirque du Pierre Poilievre

    (Short Cuts) Cirque du Pierre Poilievre

    Oh what a circus, oh what a show, as a newly reenergized Conservative Party of Canada holds its first convention with Pierre Poilievre as leader. Under this tent, everyone from anti-trans activists to British aristocrats are apparently welcome, because nothing says “populism” like telling people you know what’s best for them.
    And as the strike at TVOntario creeps toward month two, we anxiously await Polkaroo’s show of solidarity.

    How To Save Canada

    How To Save Canada

    Rob Goodman was a congressional staffer in the US and as a rising authoritarian movement brought America to the brink of a coup, he did what all Americans threaten to do when they are fed up with their country: he moved to Canada. Now an Assistant Professor in the department of Politics and Public Administration at Toronto Metropolitan University, he has an urgent warning for his adopted country.
    Jesse sits down with Rob to talk about his new book, “Not Here: Why American Democracy Is Eroding and How Canada Can Protect Itself.”

Love the podcast

A good jolt for one of those Americans who idealizes Canada as a kind of Utopia. But really, you can’t see Bing as an alternative to Google because you think it will be weird to say Bing? Please launch a Canadian campaign to “just say Bing” every time you’re about to say the “G” word. They’re thugs, erase them. Also Bing may just end up winning the AI wars.

Great journalism

I learn so much from this podcast. I may be from the United States but I don’t hear news like this. It would be awesome to have an equivalent to this in the United States too.
