So, episode 97 - a new record
Last week we were so thrilled to be invited to do a live show at the Ottawa Podcast Festival. It was a great time and there were some truly awesome podcasts in the lineup. And who doesn’t want to talk about SNC-Lavalin and the ethics commissioner at 10:30pm on a Saturday night!
This episode we open by talking about the hate incident at Ottawa Pride where a drag queen story time disrupted by anti-LGBTQ protester. The police have not charged the man who disrupted the show with a criminal offence. We wonder why the hell not.
We then talk about Doug Ford’s assault on legal aid and what Michael learned through his access to information request.
And then we dive into the ethics commissioner’s report on Trudeau’s attempted interference with the justice system in the SNC-Lavalin affair. It was a damning indictment of ethical lapses and some bullshit obfuscation by Trudeau. We have opinions.
