Episode description

There was a time when it was difficult to get information from a conflict zone and it was at risk of being clouded by "the fog of war". The images of the fighting in Ukraine have been easy to find on tradition sources like television and newspapers. And you can even see people sharing information on sites like twitter and TikTok. Scott Taylor is a former Canadian soldier and is the editor of Esprit de Corps Magazine. He was shocked to see Russia take this action, but he says the media has polarized on what he calls a "propaganda" role. Taylor offers his comments on the possible outcomes, the role Canada is playing and how likely it will be that economic sanctions make a difference to the continuation of military action.
