#1185 Shock & Awe
Today we are bringing you a great episode from our friends at Canada’s National Observer.

Today we are bringing you a great episode from our friends at Canada’s National Observer. Canada’s National Observer teamed up with DeSmog, an online investigative that describes itself as an antidote to science denial and misinformation, on The Takeover project. This project was produced in collaboration with I-SEA and the Trace Foundation.

 

We went to the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference in London, a right-wing networking event organized by former U of T professor Jordan Peterson. We observed how speakers spread anti-net-zero strategies across a growing conservative network that includes the U.S., the U.K. Europe, Australia and Canada.

 

This podcast is the result of a collaboration between Canada’s National Observer, De Smog, I-SEA and The Trace Foundation.

 

We’re doing a call-in show on Thursday from 12:00 pm-2:00 pm EST! Go to  callinstudio.com/show/canadaland or phone in at 888-401-7056 to answer: How will you know if Carney’s agenda is actually working.
