Addressing political violence with Marco Mendicino

Greetings you loyal, you curious Herle Burly-ites!

We’ve got a “MP Alert” on the pod today!

The Honourable Marco Mendicino has graciously made some time for us.

Marco is the long serving — since 2015 — Member of Parliament from Eglinton/Lawrence in Toronto. He’s served in Cabinet as both the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship … and more recently, Minister of Public Safety. Before public life, he was a federal prosecutor for more than a decade.

And it’s both his personal experiences and his political experience in the latter cabinet portfolio – Public Safety – that’s going to inform the discussion we’re having today.

In the wake of last weekend’s Trump assassination attempt, I want to explore this visceral and growing issue of political violence. As well as dive into the broader issues of national security and public safety. 

What’s fueling the vitriol and behaviour?
How do we mitigate it?
What’s the government’s role and what’s the public’s role?

As I said, Marco has first-hand experience with all of it. So, who better to talk about it?
