SENESTE EPISODE 🔗
There are layers within layers to the outlandish stories of Rob Ford, but one of the most bizarre is that of the “crack video” showing the late Toronto mayor smoking cocaine in a seedy suburban basement. The gangbanger who filmed it tried selling it in hopes of getting out of Toronto’s thug life bu…

He was an all-Canadian whiz kid, a celebrated rocket-engineering prodigy, who wanted to make this country a serious player in the 1960s space race. But when science sidestepped Gerald Bull’s plan to build gargantuan guns that could launch projectiles into orbit, he just … broke. He turned his brill…
It’s lionized by politicians but, in the real world, Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms has proved less a symbol of democratic liberty than an agent of destruction. Since becoming constitutional law, the Charter has run roughshod over Canadian democracy, weaponized in the courts to overturn po…
Where can you slaughter hundreds of people and get away with it? Only in Canada, where authorities bungled the chance to stop an obvious plot to bomb Air India Flight 182 and then failed to bring a single one of the brazen terrorists to justice.

We all know how close Quebec came to voting for independence in the 1995 referendum.

It wasn’t that long ago that elective abortions were harder to get in Canada than anywhere in the U.S. What changed was one of the most actively forgotten political brawls in our history, sparked by one doctor, Henry Morgentaler, a Holocaust survivor who believed legal abortions could prevent futur…
The fashionable way to remember the October Crisis today is to tsk-tsk at a hysterical government overreaction to the FLQ movement and gross violations of civil liberties with the War Measures Act. But what if marching the army into Montreal in the fall of 1970 was … a fantastic idea? Listen in for…
He went out a weird, morbid old man, but John Diefenbaker was indisputably the biggest political sensation this country had ever produced. He won the biggest landslide in Canadian history. He walked through screaming, adoring crowds where tearful fans would kneel and kiss his coat. Sit back and lis…
