Police statistics say that a Jew in Canada is now 9 times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than a Jew in the United States. Others dispute this data, and say antizionism is being conflated with antisemitism.
So what’s the truth?
Host Jesse Brown begins to investigate, by talking to everyday people who say they have experienced discrimination firsthand.

The budget Carney’s been trying to sell to Canadians finally went to a vote. Sam Konnert brings host Noor Azrieh into the room where it happened. Plus, the Liberals say they’re “taking back control” of Canada’s immigration system. They’re study permits and temporary residents by half. But what happens to the 3 million people already here? Noor talks to immigration expert Rupa Banerjee about whether this is a fix… or the start of Canada’s next crisis.

Noor Azrieh talks to Jesse Brown about his new Canadaland series, What Is Happening Here?
It’s no secret that Jesse Brown and Canadaland have had more than a few struggles, online and in the office, since October 7. But, eventually, Jesse Brown swore off Twitter and then the dust (and the office) settled, mostly.
Now Jesse is about to launch a new series where he travels across Canada, mic in hand, to talk with rabbis, activists, politicians, scholars, artists, Muslims, and Jews. People whose lives haven’t been the same since October 7.
Canadaland’s Noor Azrieh couldn’t quite believe what she was hearing when Jesse announced his intent for the new show. Why re-ignite the sh*tstorm? Why now? What are you trying to achieve? What did you learn by getting off Twitter and actually getting back to reporting?
Jesse agreed to be interviewed and face those questions.

After months of legal battles, the ostriches are dead.
RFK Jr, Dr Oz, Rebel Media, and a motley crew of protestors rallied to save a flock of B.C. ostriches who had contracted avian flu and were subsequently ordered to be culled.
What can the story of the ostriches tell us about the loss of public trust, the knock-on effects of COVID, and the horseshoe theory of politics?

There’s chaos in Ottawa! Green Party leader Elizabeth May doesn’t want to ruin Christmas with an election… but she says she will if Mark Carney doesn’t budge. And in B.C., a court ruling is throwing private property rights —and maybe even Canada’s map — into question. Host Noor gets the story from The Tyee’s Andrew MacLeod.

Picture yourself driving north of Toronto into big-box suburban territory. You turn off into a little industrial parkade. There's a Keg, a Moxies, and then a stubby beige office building, six storeys high. In a fifth floor suite you will find Canso Investment Counsel Limited. Canso might be the most powerful media company that we have never talked about here at Canadaland.
And they may be one of the few companies in Canada that is still making serious money off of Canadian news companies. Who are they? Why do they keep bailing out dying Canadian legacy news companies? What do they expect in return? And what does it all mean for the news?

Frustrating, for sure.
So today, we wanted to hear from you, what does the media get wrong about your area of expertise. And the lines were filled for the whole two hours. Here’s the best of it.

Is Trump’s crazy train an existential threat to Canada or an existential opportunity?
Cory Doctorow gave the world the concept of “ensh*ttification”. Doctorow’s doctrine says there is a gradual but inevitable process by which tech platforms go from marvelous and novel and exciting to, well, they go to sh*t. They get less useful and more spammy. Your Netflix library gets smaller while your monthly fee gets bigger. It gets harder to find the Google link you were looking for underneath all the sponsored links. Uber rates seem to always be set to surge pricing.
The idea can be applied to Canada itself. For a long time we enjoyed bundled access to the U.S. cable package. We got access to their markets. We got military protection. We were along for the ride of globalization. All we had to do was play by their trade rules, their foreign policy expectations. We had to subscribe to their vision of the world.
But the beta test is over. Now that we are locked into their platform, introductory rates are no longer available. If we want to trade with them, it'll cost us. If we want a golden dome protecting us, it'll cost us. Even if we just want off the crazy train, it’ll cost us.
Can we unsh*ttify Canada?

Justice Minister Sean Fraser just dropped Bill C-14, a new bail reform bill — the third one in seven years. After provinces, cops, the opposition, and Joe Schmoe from the corner store all demanded a crackdown on “catch and release,” the Liberals are trying again to fix Canada’s bail system.
But what if the system isn’t actually broken?
Host Noor Azrieh talks with criminal defence lawyer Michael Spratt about what’s really behind the bail panic.

The man known as Commander X helped orchestrate some of the most audacious cyber attacks in the world. Attacks against governments and corporations, even ranging as far as whaling ships, satellites, and the Pope.
In the U.S. he was a wanted man. The charges against him could have brought decades behind bars. So how did he pull off hiding in plain sight, for years, at a coffee shop in downtown Toronto?
