Podcast appearances and mentions of Robyn Doolittle

In an “extraordinary” development, the jury has been dismissed in the sexual assault trial of five ex-world junior hockey players. The Globe and Mail's investigative reporter Robyn Doolittle explains what a judge-only trial could mean for the case, and why the jury's dismissal means new details can now be reported

Last week, Justice Maria Carroccia dismissed the jury in the Hockey Canada case for the second time. The trial will continue and be heard by a judge alone, rather than appointing a new jury and starting over – a decision that means the complainant, a woman known only as E.M. due to a publication ban, won't have to testify again. Robyn Doolittle has been covering the court case for The Globe. She explains what prompted this shocking development, what led to the first jury getting dismissed and how E.M.'s cross-examination ended. Questions? Comments? Ideas?

On this episode of The Alex Pierson Podcast, we first start off with free speech. After a group of law students signed an open petition against Israel, they are now starting to understand why free speech isn't free from repercussions. Alex speaks with Robyn Doolittle, an investigative reporter with the Globe And Mail who has been covering this issue and helps to explain why the letter was first penned, and why some of these students thought they would be safe. GUEST: Robyn Doolittle - Reporter with the Globe & Mail X(formerly Twitter): @robyndoolittle Next, Alex sits with a landlord and board member of the Small Ownership Landlords of Ontario (SOLO), Varun Sriskanda about new proposed bylaws coming to Toronto which could force landlords to ensure ALL units have A/C in extreme heat. Varun tells Alex that all landlords are not the same, and this bylaw could cause rents to skyrocket...or landlords to leave the city. GUEST: Varun Sriskanda - Member of the Small Ownership Landlords of Ontario X(formerly twitter): @VarunSriskanda And finally, Alex speaks with the former vice chair of the CRTC and current Sr. Fellow with the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, Peter Menzies about why big tech are able to circumvent the Online News Act and freely access Canadian news.

Five hockey players from Canada's 2018 world junior hockey team have been charged with sexual assault in connection to an event alleged to have taken place in London, Ont., in 2018. Four of them are current NHL players.A woman identified as E.M. sued Hockey Canada in 2022 in relation to the incident, which was settled for $3.55-million. The Globe then reported that Hockey Canada had maintained a reserve, called the National Equity Fund, to pay out sexual assault claims. It was made up, in part, by players' registration fees.The Globe's Robyn Doolittle led the reporting on Unfounded, a series examining how police departments across Canada treat sexual assault claims, and she's been reporting on the alleged incident as details become public. She explains what happened in 2018 and how it led to this week's charges.Questions? Comments? Ideas? Email us at thedecibel@globeandmail.com

Robyn Doolittle is an investigative reporter with the Globe and Mail who has spent the past two years investigating the country's freedom of information regime through a project called Secret Canada. Her latest investigation focuses on New Brunswick poor record of access to public information.

New Brunswick is one of the most secretive jurisdictions in Canada when it comes to access to public information. That's according to the Globe and Mail. Jeanne Armstrong spoke to investigative reporter Robyn Doolittle.

It can be incredibly frustrating trying to get access to historical records in Canada. There are often lengthy delays and confusing inconsistency. That's in large part because Canada's historical records are tied up in our access to information system, which has a lot of problems.The Globe's investigative reporter Robyn Doolittle has been reporting on the country's struggling access to information system through the Secret Canada project. Today, she explains why it's so difficult to access records that are decades – even centuries – old, and why it's so important that we can see what happened in the past.Questions? Comments? Ideas?

With Molly Hayes, national reporter with The Globe and Mail. Women and equity-seeking journalists investigate under-told stories. We need them to give voice to gender justice matters that otherwise go unheard. Think about the most stunning contemporary stories you've seen on gender and equality issues. Chances are that women and equity-seeking journalists were behind them.   Every year, the Canadian Women's Foundation presents The Landsberg Award in partnership with The Canadian Journalism Foundation to acknowledge and inspire feminist journalism. It's named after iconic journalist and author, Michele Landsberg. Journalist and activist Gloria Steinem said, “Those who make a revolution and those who write about it are usually two different people. Michele Landsberg is one of the few on earth who is trusted and effective at both.” Past winners of The Landsberg Award include such journalists as Connie Walker, Robyn Doolittle, Christina Frangou, and more. Today we're joined by Molly Hayes, who won the 2023 Landsberg Award alongside Tavia Grant and Elizabeth Renzetti for their series on intimate partner violence and femicide in Canada. She is a national reporter with The Globe and Mail. She joined the Globe in 2017 as the inaugural recipient of the Canadian Journalism Foundation's investigative journalism fellowship, and today reports on crime and social justice issues, including violence against women.  Relevant links: Gender Gap in Digital News Access  Episode ⁠Transcripts⁠  Please listen, subscribe, rate, and review this podcast and share it with others.

Today on The Social, Kristen Bell's daughters drink non-alcoholic beer.  And, Dwayne ‘The Rock' Johnson makes a large donation to SAG-AFTRA amid strike.  Then, Tom Brady and Irina Shayk are dating.

What governments know about each of us, what they do with that data, and how they make decisions based on it, is supposed to be available to citizens. It's a fundamental principle of democratic accountability. But as a recent series in The Globe and Mail demonstrated, that's not quite how it all works. The series is called ,Secret Canada,, and it raises many questions about how freedom of information works in this country, or more likely, how it doesn't work. For insight, we welcome Brooks Fallis, critical care & internal medicine physician; Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario Patricia Kosseim; and the investigative reporters behind The Globe and Mail's series, Secret Canada: Robyn Doolittle and Tom Cardoso.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Canada's among the worst developed nations when it comes to government transparency.

When Canada first passed legislation to create its access-to-information system, it was seen as a world leader in terms of transparency. But fast forward 40 years and that same system is sluggish, overwhelmed and preventing Canadians from their right to government information.Globe and Mail investigative reporters Robyn Doolittle and Tom Cardoso spent more than a year reporting on the state of the system and what's behind all the bottlenecks.

After months of controversy over its handling of sexual assault allegations, Hockey Canada has new leadership — will that be enough to usher in a culture change? We talk to the new chair of Hockey Canada's board of directors, retired judge Hugh Fraser; and Robyn Doolittle, a Globe and Mail investigative reporter who has been covering the story.

Robyn Doolittle, Investigative Reporter - The Globe & Mail joined Greg to talk about her article that reveals a lot more about the Hockey Canada group sexual assault.

Equity-seeking journalists including women and racialized reporters investigate some of the most important and hidden stories. Whether writing articles for newspapers or magazines, editing, posting on social media or digital media, or blogging, we need them to give voice to issues otherwise unheard. This makes the harassment and abuse they experience at disproportionate levels particularly vexing. It's harmful to them as people and media workers, and it runs counter to the goal of making things better and fairer in Canada. We can't achieve that goal without a diverse news media landscape and truth in reporting. Every year, the Canadian Women's Foundation presents The Landsberg Award in partnership with The Canadian Journalism Foundation to acknowledge and inspire feminist journalism It's named after iconic journalist and author, Michele Landsberg. Past winners include Connie Walker, investigative reporter behind CBC's Missing & Murdered: Finding Cleo podcast, author and journalist Elizabeth Renzetti, and Toronto Star's Alyshah Hasham and Wendy Gillis. We're joined Robyn Doolittle, who won the Landsberg in 2018, and Christina Frangou, who won this year. Robyn Doolittle is member of The Globe and Mail's investigative team and a two-time winner of Canada's Michener Award. She has probed suspicious business contracts, political corruption, and Canada's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Her “Unfounded” investigation, which explored the ways that Canadian police services handle sexual assault cases, prompted a national overhaul of policy, training and practices around sexual violence. Her latest book, “Had It Coming – What's Fair In The Age of #MeToo?” was shortlisted for the RBC Taylor Prize for non-fiction. Doolittle was named Journalist of the Year in 2017. Christina Frangou is a journalist, writer, and editor based in Calgary, Alberta. Her reporting has garnered multiple awards and nominations. She specializes in writing about health, medicine, and social issues: in 20+ years as a journalist, she's written about addiction, bereavement, refugee health, firearm violence, safe consumption sites, and medical assistance in dying. On the lighter side, she writes about things like skiing and traveling and her favourite hairstylist.

On Wednesday, a jury sided with actor, Johnny Depp in his defamation case against his ex-wife, Amber Heard. The verdict follows a six week-long trial (which aired live on Court TV) that captured the public's attention. It spawned hashtags with billions of views on TikTok, memes and even a skit on Saturday Night Live.During the trial, intimate and often ugly allegations about Heard and Depp's relationship were on full display. That included allegations of abuse – which both accused the other of doing.While this case became a media spectacle involving two celebrities, it also brought to light the very real issue of intimate partner violence. The Globe's Robyn Doolittle has reported on sexual violence and gender discrimination since 2015 and she's also written a book on #MeToo. She is joined by Nicole Bedera, a sociologist who researches sexual violence and how it relates to our society and culture. They discuss the implications of the case and what it means to the broader conversation about #MeToo and the issue of intimate partner violence.

As we enter the sixth wave of COVID-19, hospitals are bracing for yet another surge. After two years of weathering wave after wave, doctors, nurses, and hospital staff are “burnt to a crisp,” as one Hamilton, Ont. doctor put it. The problems with Canada's hospitals – from surgery backlogs, to “hallway medicine,” to staffing shortages – stretch back long before the pandemic.Globe and Mail investigative reporter Robyn Doolittle set out with reporter Tom Cardoso to find why Canadian hospitals were so poorly equipped to handle an influx of patients. What she found, Robyn explains, is how the very foundation of Canada's universal health care system led to the problems that plague it today.

New data from Ontario's biggest hospital corporations reveals barriers to leadership roles for women in the medical field. At the physician level, female surgeons earn 24 per cent less in hourly wages than their male counterparts. Steve Paikin explores the gender power gap in medicine with general surgeon and researcher Dr. Fahima Dossa; investigative journalist Robyn Doolittle; and economist Sarah Kaplan.

The term has been batted around to describe a higher number of people either quitting or changing jobs during the pandemic. And even though Canada seems to be trailing the U.S. according to data, there's no denying that attitudes and expectations about work life are changing. What's behind this trend: workplace dissatisfaction, career burnout, a sudden bouquet of choices? We ask Vass Bednar, executive director, Master of Public Policy in Digital Society Program, McMaster University, and member of the Ontario Workplace Advisory Committee; Robyn Doolittle, Globe and Mail investigative reporter; and Deena Ladd, executive director, Workers Action Centre.

Marie Henein is one of Canada's most famous criminal defence lawyers. Her successful career is highlighted by her representation of well-known clients most notably, former CBC host Jian Ghomeshi. This has also made her a polarizing figure. Defending Ghomeshi against sexual assault charges – which he was acquitted thanks to her work – garnered public backlash. She was even accused of being a traitor to her gender.In a new book, Nothing But The Truth: A Memoir, Henein details her journey from her childhood in Egypt to her high-profile legal career. She sat down with Robyn Doolittle to discuss what she thinks needs to change in our justice system, how growing up surrounded by strong women has shaped her and her thoughts on the future of the #MeToo movement.

Leon Neyfakh is the co-creator of the podcasts Slow Burn and Fiasco — two shows that take a closer look at big political scandals from the past. In this episode he shares a clip from the latest season of Fiasco and some of his favourite podcasts. . Podcasts featured in this episode: . 1. Fiasco: The Iran-Contra scandal was a complex affair with a lot of moving parts involved. But its origins can be traced back to the very first day of Ronald Reagan’s presidency. . 2. The Gravy Train: Toronto Mayor Rob Ford was a harbinger of the populist wave that would sweep the world. But before all that, reporter Robyn Doolittle was shown a video of the mayor smoking crack cocaine — and she couldn’t tell anyone. . 3. The Cut On Tuesdays: In this clip, comedian Aparna Nancherla talks about her anxiety, and how bringing it to the stage changed everything for her. . 4. 30 for 30: At first, the Donald Stirling affair seems almost cliche: Stirling, a powerful businessman and owner of the L.A. Clippers, cheats on his wife with a younger woman. But then, that woman released secret recordings of Stirling's shocking racism that shook the NBA. . 5. How to F--k up an Airport: The Berlin Brandenberg Airport was supposed to be a gleaming, world-class transit hub for the 21st century. This podcast explores how everything went so terribly wrong.

Given today's increasing environmental awareness, you'd think consumers would be looking for smaller and smaller cars. But the clear message from the crowds at this year's auto show is "go big or go home!". Libby chatted with leading automotive consultant Denis DesRosiers. AND How have attitudes to sexual behaviour changed in the wake of the #MeToo movement, and why is there a generational divide in the way women think about it? Those are just some of the questions award-winning author and investigative reporter Robyn Doolittle asks in her latest book "Had it Coming." She came by our studios to discuss it.

Toronto was an answer on Jeopardy last night, reminding us that Robyn Doolittle's book Crazy Town: The Rob Ford Story came out six years ago. There was a derailment on the TTC this morning, causing commuter chaos once again. A passenger on a bus was caught on camera harassing a TTC employee for "not looking Canadian." Another popular clothing store on Queen West is closing, and Uncle Ray's is a new Southern-style restaurant that faced some backlash before it even opened.

Times have changed, especially in the way we view things like sexual assault, and the #MeToo movement has had a lot to do with that. We ask a lot more questions now about ‘why'. For instance, why aren't police more aggressive in looking into sexual assaults?  Investigative journalist Robyn Doolittle has written about this in her latest book called Had It Coming. She examines, what she calls, rape culture, and looks at how “we” have changed when it comes to our reaction to stories in the past versus stories today. And writing it, she says, was a personal awakening for her. Let's learn more about it. Robyn Doolittle joins us now.    Guest: Robyn Doolittle  Author, Had It Coming

In the months after Robyn Doolittle's groundbreaking series of exposés about the scandal-ridden Toronto mayor Rob Ford, she left the Toronto Star for a new investigative role at the Globe & Mail. Then, mostly, silence. Her lack of bylines belied her hard work behind the scenes as she dug into what would become the story of the year: a 20-month investigation into police departments across Canada and their chronic underreporting of sexual assaults being filed. Within days of the story's publication earlier this month, police departments, provincial governments, and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau himself promised to start implementing changes into how sexual assaults were recorded. Robyn joins us to talk about how the story got off the ground and how it will continue to be covered in the months and years to come.Support CANADALAND: https://canadaland.com/joinSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Robyn Doolittle is the author of Crazy Town--a new book chronicling the absurd political messiness that the city of Toronto has endured at the hands of their crack smoking mayor: Rob Ford. As one of three journalists to have seen the infamous crack video, Robyn has covered the Rob Ford story extensively for the Toronto Star; so we had our VICE Canada Managing Editor Patrick McGuire sit down with her to review the past few years of Toronto politics. From Rob's nearly constant gaffes and presumably drug-addled soundbites, to whether or not he can win the 2014 election, to Canada's restrictive freedom of information laws... it's a comprehensive chat.
