Indigo CEO Heather Reisman, teacher Laurie Allen, politician Selina Robinson, professor of medicine Ted Rosenberg – all were arguably targeted for their views and actions, not for their ethnicity. But does that mean it wasn't discrimination or hate? And how far into our institutions has this movement gone?Credits: This series is a co-production of Canadaland and The Canadian Jewish NewsMade possible by the generous support of George Burger, Dan Debow, Daniel Klass, Marjorie Skolnik, and Lee Zentner.Written and Reported by Jesse BrownResearch and Story Editing by Kate MinskyOriginal Music by SocalledSound Design, Mixing and Mastering by Caleb ThompsonEditorial Input from Michael Fraiman For a list of sources cited in this episode, visit our website.To support Canadaland, visit http://canadaland.com/join Hosted on Acast.

To donate funding so we can complete this series, email jesse@canadaland.comPolice statistics say that a Jew in Canada is now 9 times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than a Jew in the United States. Others dispute this data, and say antizionism is being conflated with antisemitism. So what's the truth? Host Jesse Brown begins to investigate, by talking to everyday people who say they have experienced discrimination firsthand.

Noor Azrieh talks to Jesse Brown about his new Canadaland series, What Is Happening Here?It's no secret that Jesse Brown and Canadaland have had more than a few struggles, online and in the office, since October 7. But, eventually, Jesse Brown swore off Twitter and then the dust (and the office) settled, mostly. Now Jesse is about to launch a new series where he travels across Canada, mic in hand, to talk with rabbis, activists, politicians, scholars, artists, Muslims, and Jews. People whose lives haven't been the same since October 7.Canadaland's Noor Azrieh couldn't quite believe what she was hearing when Jesse announced his intent for the new show. Why re-ignite the sh*tstorm? Why now? What are you trying to achieve? What did you learn by getting off Twitter and actually getting back to reporting?Jesse agreed to be interviewed and face those questions.Host: Noor AzriehCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor & Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher)Featured Guest: Jesse BrownFact checking by Julian AbrahamAdditional music by Audio NetworkMore information:What Is Happening Here? — CANADALANDSponsors: oxio: Head over to https://canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!

Together, LeDrew and Brown unpack how federal subsidies have changed journalism, why public trust in news has collapsed, and what happens when reporters are paid by the same government they're supposed to hold accountable.A sharp, revealing Three Minutes on media, money, and the price of independence in Canada's press.

RFK Jr, Dr Oz, Rebel Media, and a motley crew of protestors rallied to save a flock of B.C. ostriches who had contracted avian flu and were subsequently ordered to be culled.

There's a Keg, a Moxies, and then a stubby beige office building, six storeys high. In a fifth floor suite you will find Canso Investment Counsel Limited. Canso might be the most powerful media company that we have never talked about here at Canadaland.And they may be one of the few companies in Canada that is still making serious money off of Canadian news companies.

Is Trump's crazy train an existential threat to Canada or an existential opportunity?Cory Doctorow gave the world the concept of “ensh*ttification”. Doctorow's doctrine says there is a gradual but inevitable process by which tech platforms go from marvelous and novel and exciting to, well, they go to sh*t. They get less useful and more spammy. Your Netflix library gets smaller while your monthly fee gets bigger. It gets harder to find the Google link you were looking for underneath all the sponsored links. Uber rates seem to always be set to surge pricing. The idea can be applied to Canada itself. For a long time we enjoyed bundled access to the U.S. cable package. We got access to their markets. We got military protection. We were along for the ride of globalization. All we had to do was play by their trade rules, their foreign policy expectations. We had to subscribe to their vision of the world.But the beta test is over. Now that we are locked into their platform, introductory rates are no longer available. If we want to trade with them, it'll cost us. If we want a golden dome protecting us, it'll cost us. Even if we just want off the crazy train, it'll cost us.Can we unsh*ttify Canada?Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor & Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Featured guest: Cory DoctorowFact checking by Julian AbrahamMore information:https://craphound.com/Sponsors: oxio: Head over to https://canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free!

 Hello to you listening in Toronto, Ontario, CanadaLand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.My morning “rise & shine” routine is not complete without a page from the book, Pluto Living - Welcome to the Plutoverse by Pluto (& Mom a.k.a. NJ Wight, renowned wildlife photographer). You might remember the smart and sassy older lady Canadian Miniature Schnauzer who launched her very own Pluto Living YouTube channel on March 17, 2020 where she dispensed wisdom, laughter, history lessons, and tips on how to live better with less during the COVID. Pluto is now Angel Pluto but thanks to the InterWeb you can catch up with Pluto Living videos, playlists and shorts. Click HERE to access the YouTube channel  Click HERE to access the Pluto Living home pageFinally, Pluto's message that kick-started my day: “The stay-homes are making Mom's nerves jump around like a kangaroo convention! Everyone, you have to try to find a little spot of normal in these strange times. And maybe have a cookie? So-so-so, try to make your world just a little bit quieter for yourself in some small way. Maybe you could also do some little thing to make someone else's world feel a little bit softer. We have to rise up and be kind.”  Question: How are you rising up to be kind? Share the good word!  And thank you for listening.You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Jivani told Canadians to “join him” in discussing the future of our country and how we can restore the promise of Canada.So we joined him.

The Civil Rights Movement of the ‘50s and ‘60s in the United States gave the world iconic, inspiring, and sometimes horrific moments, burned by repetition into the public imagination. Even as a Canadian, you know the sights and sounds of that civil rights fight. You can picture MLK preaching his dream.But what did the civil rights struggle look and sound like in Canada? Does anything come to mind? Perhaps Viola Desmond, challenging segregation at a cinema in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, recently memorialized on the ten dollar bill. Why so few images in the collective conscience? Where are the Canadian sights and sounds of the era?Today's guest has the answer, and the footage to back it up. Filmmaker Michèle Stephenson has just premiered her new film True North.

The Rogers family drama was epic. An imperious and secretive billionaire telecom overlord clan loathed across the nation, a ne'er do well heir to the throne and his fashionista wife hanging out at Mar-a-Lago, his secret scheme to seize control of his dead father's empire exposed by an errant butt dial.If that had happened anywhere else, you bet they'd make a movie about it.

Many have been trying to get to Canada.Molly's series was called Dear Taliban and one of her stories featured a young woman who called herself Haya.Haya and her family fled from Kabul to Pakistan where they found themselves stranded and that's where her story ended for us.
