Join Noor Azrieh and Sam Konnert for a discussion to bid farewell to key legislation that is likely to be lost due to Parliament’s prorogation. From the Online Harms Act, to clean drinking water for First Nation communities, there’s a lot to mourn.

 

And, how could a new liberal leader possibly win back young men? We speak with Aiden Fox Ivey, who reached out after he heard our interview with a conservative bro.
