Progressive Conservative Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston had been one of the most popular politicians in the country. Mark Carney-level popular. Regina George-level popular. For a while, it looked like Nova Scotia would be Houston's forever. But now his popularity is at its lowest point since he took on the top job. Host Noor Azrieh sits down with his former Justice Minister turned Liberal MLA Becky Druhan to unpack her striking political turn: how does a senior member of a government go from defending it to deciding the problem is the very government she once helped run?

Journalists and politicians are honouring Robert Fife, who retired after 48 years. Known for his big scoops, Fife leveraged anonymous sources to hold the powerful accountable. But Fife's brand of “access journalism” also runs the risk of being used as a political tool. Jan Wong joins Jesse Brown to explain why journalists shouldn't get too cozy with the politicians they cover.

Mark Carney's Liberals are trying to push a whole stack of bills across the finish line–and it's no small stack. Bail reform, hate crimes, gender-based violence, housing, election financing, digital safety, lawful access, and privacy.Is this what an efficient Parliament looks like?

Submit media fails you see, and get facts, links, images and more at TheyStandCorrected.substack.com. Celebrate and support the fight for truth by becoming a Founding Member! How did Canada, previously known for its politeness, become home to a widespread, violent antisemitic movement? Attacks on Jews are higher per capita in Canada than anywhere else in the West. Montreal has been called the “antisemitism capital of North America.” Today, Josh is joined by Jesse Brown, editor and publisher of the independent news and podcast company Canadaland. In a recent series called “What is Happening Here,” he delved into the antisemitism spreading across the country. Josh speaks with him about unique ways in which Canadian media fuels this bigotry, including by failing to report who carries out hate crimes. “The worse the media has done here, the more government support they’ve gotten,” Jesse says. The problem trickles down from the highest levels of the government and leads to policies in newsrooms. “What Americans can see in Canada is: This is what happens when nobody is pushing back against this anti-Zionist thing,” he explains. “It gets bolder, it gets infused into organizations, it becomes a witch hunt against everyday people.” Also today, the BBC looks at girls in Afghanistan being sold into slavery, and focuses on how difficult it is for their fathers. To the BBC, the men doing the selling must be portrayed as victims. Josh explains the warped thinking that leads to these journalistic fiascoes.

October 7 and the Gaza war radically changed the way many people around the world, including Diaspora Jews, viewed Israel. For Toronto-based journalist Jesse Brown, the turning point came not with Hamas' massacre itself, but with the domestic backlash that followed. “Canadians got angry with Jews after October 7, and the entire national discourse seemed to just turn against Jews in a way that I wouldn’t have imagined possible,” he told the Haaretz Podcast. Using police-reported hate crime statistics from Canada and the United States, Brown argues that a Jew in Canada is now about nine times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than a Jew in the United States. Ironically, he explained to podcast host Allison Kaplan Sommer, the progressive political atmosphere in Canada has made things worse for Jews, not better. Brown’s podcast series “What is Happening Here” documents the skyrocketing antisemitism targeting Jewish institutions and neighborhoods in Canada, including synagogues being shot at, firebombed or vandalized, and Jewish-owned businesses and individuals singled out for harassment campaigns. Brown contends that debates over whether specific chants or actions are “anti-Israel,” “anti-Zionist” or “antisemitic” obscure the practical impact on Jewish communities. While he stops short of equating anti-Zionism with antisemitism, Brown said that contemporary anti-Zionism is “just as dangerous to Jews.” Read more: Canadian Watchdog Reports Record Number of Antisemitic Incidents in 2025 Canadian-Jewish Groups Decry Efforts by pro-Palestinian Groups to Strip Jewish Schools of Their Charity Status Toronto Police Arrest Suspect in Passover Shooting at Jewish-owned Restaurant Campaign Targeting Jewish Children's Summer Camps in Canada Condemned as AntisemiticSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
