Hosted by one of Canada's most respected journalists, Steve Paikin's podcast is featured here every Saturday morning in cooperation with Village Media
This week on The Paikin Podcast: A new collaboration. In the first of what will be many conversations, Steve sits down with former NDP MP Charlie Angus, who now operates Meidas Canada.
They discuss how Canadians should understand this moment in history — a “new age of monsters" — and the rising authoritarian threat. They also talk about the future of our country, the two separatisms in Alberta and Quebec, whether Avi Lewis was the right choice for NDP leader, and whether the left can build a durable populism that can rival right wing populism. You can watch the full conversation below.
In another episode that dropped this week — recorded in front of a live audience at The Albany Club — Greg Brady joins the "Everything Political" panel with former MPs Martha Hall Findlay and Tony Clement. They discuss Prime Minister Mark Carney's speech on antisemitism: whether it hit the mark, why he didn't mention anti-Zionism, and whether Israel's actions have contributed to the rising antisemitism in Canada.
They also talk about the current mood of conservatives in Canada, the frustration within the Conservative Party, whether Pierre Poilievre is the right leader, and whether Carney is the worst possible match-up for Poilievre. One of Canada's most respected journalists, Steve Paikin spent 19 seasons as anchor of TVO's The Agenda. He now hosts his own podcast, which you can find HERE or wherever you listen to your favourite shows.
In cooperation with Village Media, The Paikin Podcast also runs every Saturday morning on this local news site. Want to hear more about Paikin's latest venture? Check out his recent appearance on our Closer Look podcast.
