So, episode 139 – a new record. But you know that right? Because you subscribe to the show and have already rated and reviewed the podcast – right? You should.

We are joined by the amazing professor Daphnie Gilbert, who specializes in teaching criminal and constitutional law, to talk about the announcement that the government is delaying (again) the full implementation of Medical Assistance in Dying. 

Daphnie's research interests lie primarily in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, with a particular emphasis on equality rights, reproductive rights, medical assistance in dying (MAiD), sexual violence, and safe sport/abuse in sport. She is the Vice-Chair of Dying with Dignity and the perfect person to cut through the politics of this very important issue.

But we start with a rant about Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre's disingenuous spin on car thefts and Danielle Smith's attack on trans youth. Emilie also give an update on the Convoy litigation. Rants all around!
