How Do We Fight Back?

Gloves Off is about the threat to Canada’s sovereignty and how the country can thrive in the new world disorder. Because it’s not just about surviving as a nation. It’s about winning. Hosted by journalist and author <a href="https://www.stephenmarche.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stephen Marche</a>. It’s been a year of the old world order falling apart. The rules-based international order is over.&nbsp;But it’s also been a year of great unthinkable change—change to the way Canada operates, who it trusts, and who it fears. This presents an opportunity for Canada to move away from its decades-long dependency on the US towards something new: a third pole of middle power alliances. Last season on Gloves Off, we wanted to survive as a nation. The question was: Are we going to make it? This season, we’re answering the question: How do we win?&nbsp; Visit <a href="http://www.gloves-off.ca/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">gloves-off.ca</a> for more research behind the issues and watch our aftershow Cross Check. <hr> Hosted on Acast.
