Episode description

On this week's podcast, Rosie and Elamin discuss the Ontario government's use of the notwithstanding clause for the first time in the province's history. Why did the Ford government resort to the constitutional "nuclear option," and how have other provinces used it or threatened to use it? The hosts break it down. And it's been a week for the federal Green Party. Leader Annamie Paul had a member of her caucus cross the floor to the Liberals, and now she's under fire from some party members for how she's handled disagreements within the Greens — especially when it comes to the issue of Israel and the Palestinians. Rosie and Elamin discuss how the party ended up in the headlines for all the wrong reasons, and how Paul has handled a still unfolding crisis.
