Episode description

We're joined by Peter Smith of the Canada Anti-Hate Network to discuss why Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warmly congratulated far-right leader Giorgia Meloni's election victory in Italy last fall, and what newly obtained documents tell us about the balancing act between diplomacy and criticizing right-wing extremism on the world stage.
