  The Allison Inquiry: Time to Take Vaccine Injuries Seriously 21.09.2026 50นาที

  He was the doctor who almost got Joe Rogan cancelled. The controversy he roiled on Rogan brought the show some its highest ever ratings. So you might have been among the 40 million who caught Dr. Peter McCullough on Rogan where he spoke out against the COVID vaccine near the start of the pandemic. He was accused of undermining public health efforts and spreading misinformation.And last week Dr. McCullough was on Parliament Hill. But chances are you didn’t hear about that appearance. Most of the mainstream media, and nearly all the nation’s MPs, took a pass on attending the Allison Inquiry into injuries sustained by Canadians from the vaccine.Dr. McCullough joins us today. But he’s not here to debate his opinion on the science of vaccines.  Instead we wanted to discuss his experience at the centre of the Rogan controversy. We wanted to ask him whether people should be getting medical advice from shows like Rogan’s. We wanted to know what he thought about the splintering of public faith in mainstream institutions, a splintering that the pandemic sped up. We wanted to know where he thinks all this division has left us. At least, that’s what we set out to do….Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Chad Galloway (Audio Editing & Production), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Additional music by Audio NetworkFact checking by Julian AbrahamMore information:Allison Inquiry | Listening to Canadian Covid-19 Vaccine InjuredConservative MP holds independent hearings into COVID-19 vaccine injuries - CBCMP calls for public participation in COVID-19 vaccine injury inquiry - Global NewsIt's hard to bury victims' tears at Allison vaccine injury inquiry - Toronto Sun'My life is effectively destroyed': Allison Inquiry exposes twin faces of fight against COVID vaccine policies - National Post ‘I felt duped’: COVID vaccine injury victim not impressed by inquiry into Canadian vaccine injuries - CTVDr. Peter McCullough’s Libertarian Medical Train Makes a Pit Stop in East Palestine - McGillJoe Rogan podcast hosts doctor known for pushing debunked claims about Covid-19 - The IndependentSpotify to Add ‘Content Advisory’ Warnings to Podcasts With Covid Discussion - The Rolling StoneSponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.caFizz: Visit https://fizz.ca and activate a first plan using the referral code CAN25 to get 40$ off and 10GB of free data.BetterHelp: Visit https://betterHelp.com/canadaland today to get 10% off your first month.Can’t get enough Canadaland?

  Did Saudi Arabia spend billions on EA Games to get Canadians' Data? 14.09.2026 32นาที

  It is the biggest leveraged buyout in history. Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) just bought EA Games: one of the world’s biggest video game companies. PIF joined forces with two American investment firms (one run by Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner) to buy the gaming giant for $55 billion.But this could be about a lot more than just video games. EA has more than 700 million players worldwide, and it’s collecting vast amounts of data on them. What are the national security and privacy implications of a foreign sovereign wealth fund controlling a company with all that data? And given EA has a Canadian subsidiary with Canadian employees and, of course, Canadian players — how has the Canadian government scrutinized this deal?Host: Gemma BoothroydCredits: Gemma Boothroyd (Reporter), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Chad Galloway (Audio Editing & Production), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Fact checking by Julian Abraham  Additional music by Audio NetworkImage by Saudi Press AgencyMore information:Saudi-led group completes $55bn purchase of gaming giant EA - BBCExecutions in Saudi Arabia hit highest number on record in 2025 - The Guardian The Kingdom Came to Canada: How Saudi-Linked Digital Espionage Reached Canadian Soil - The Citizen Lab After 25 years, I’m breaking up with The Sims.

  Canada’s Right-Wing Meme War 11.09.2026 31นาที

  A trend of “Blame Canada” memes is causing a schism amongst conservatives. Far-right conservative influencers are gleefully amplifying MAGA-style messaging around Carney and Canada, while more moderate conservative voices are calling them “traitorous.” Under Pierre Poilievre, the CPC embraced right-wing influencers, offering them “content creator” passes and access to events, but now they’re trying to distance themselves.Is the turf war between establishment conservatives and edgy memelords overblown? Harrison Lowman of the Hub joins Julian Abraham to explore the AI slop that is dividing conservatives in Canada. Host: Julian AbrahamCredits: James Nicholson (Producer), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Jesse Brown (Editor)Guest: Harrison LowmanPhoto: Donald Trump Truth Social Post (likely generated by A.I.)Further reading: Ben Woodfinden: 'Blame Canada' conservatives are no better than woke statue topplers - National PostThe Conservative civil war has only just begun | Canada's National ObserverRichard Warnica: Canada’s conservatives have a problem with reality - Toronto StarMarc Nixon on X: "Mark Carney THROWN into Lake America 🇺🇸🤣" / XMarc Nixon on X: "😭🤣🔥 you can’t run from the MEMES Even if you try" / XBrian Lilley on X: "Calling Canada shitty and cheering on a foreign leader attacking ours all in one video.

  How the CBC Screwed Up the Trade War 09.09.2026 30นาที

  As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, the CBC’s longstanding policy towards reporting on acts of terrorism suddenly became an international story.A leaked internal CBC memo that instructed journalists not to refer to 9/11 as a terrorist attack without attribution sparked backlash on both sides of the border. In the context of the trade war, CBC’s journalistic policy became a flashpoint for Republicans, with US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra suggesting it further jeopardized trade relations between Canada and the US. Jen Gerson of The Line joins Julian Abraham to explain how the CBC escalated trade war tensions (even if it didn’t intend to) and what happens next now that the CBC changed its policy towards 9/11. Host: Julian AbrahamCredits: James Nicholson (Producer), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Jesse Brown (Editor)Guest: Jen GersonPhoto: Ken LundFurther reading: 9/11 wasn't a 'terrorist attack,' according to the CBC | Toronto Sun How and why CBC News will adjust its 9/11 language guidance - CBCHow CBC News uses the words 'terrorist,' 'terrorism' - CBCCBC changed its terrorism policy for 9/11—but still not for Hamas - Canadian Jewish NewsThe CBC’s 9/11 terrorism scandal revealed the public broadcaster is operating in a separate reality than the public - The Hub Opinion: CBC's refusal to distinguish between terrorism and war shows it can't think critically - National PostAvi Benlolo: CBC's editorial choices around Islamic terror need to be investigated - National PostSome voters alarmed by self-declaration requirement on mail-in ballots for Alberta referendum | CBC NewsN.S. energy minister resigns after backlash over misogynistic rap lyrics - Halifax | Globalnews.ca   Sponsors: oxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free! Squarespace: Check out Squarespace.com/canadaland for a free trial, and when you’re ready to launch use code canadaland to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain.BetterHelp: Visit BetterHelp.com/canadaland today to get 10% off your first month.If you value this podcast, support us!

  Garfield Almost Broke Him. Now He Wants Your Vote. 07.09.2026 31นาที

  In the history of journalism, there have been a number of iconic interviews. Interviews that defined a generation and uncovered truths from some of the biggest political scandals of the time. Richard Nixon, Monica Lewinsky, the ex-Duke of York formerly known as Prince Andrew, to name only a few.Today, we bring you an interview with Nathen Mazri. Former Garfield Eats proprietor, former PPC candidate, and now, running for Toronto City Council in Ward 1 Etobicoke North. Will this interview be as era-defining as the others? His CV is likely stranger than any other candidate, and his legally distinct Garfield (called Nathfield) campaign song probably isn’t going to top the charts. He only got 235 votes during the last federal election, so why does he think he has a shot at being mayor of Toronto in 2030?Is he delusional? Or is his conviction so strong that he might just do it? Further Reading:Nathen MazriCanadian entrepreneur behind GarfieldEATS wants to disrupt fast-food, one lasagna at a time - Globe & MailLove Me, Feed Me, Never Leave Me: The Strange Saga of the World’s Greatest Garfield Restaurateur - MEL MagazineI Ate Lasagna and Garfuccinos at the New Garfield-Themed Restaurant in Toronto - Food & WineGarfield pizza entrepreneur runs for PPC in Toronto Centre - Toronto TodayThe Nathfield Podcast - SpotifyHost: Sam KonnertCredits: Noor Azrieh (Producer), Aviva Lessard (Senior Producer), Chad Galloway (Audio Editing & Production), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Featured guest: Nathen MazriFact checking by: Julian AbrahamAdditional music by: Audio NetworkSponsors: Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.caoxio: Head over to https://canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free! Article: Article is offering our listeners $50 off your first purchase of $100 or more.

  Is America’s Cultural Rule Over? 02.09.2026 27นาที

  There’s been wall-to-wall coverage of the breakdown in trade talks between Canada and the US, on both sides of the border. Whether it’s Trump’s renaming of Lake Ontario, gun-toting A.I.

  Prime Minister Mark Carney made a nice speech last weekend. But what happens after you walk away from a blown-up trade deal? This episode host Noor Azrieh asks Matina Stevis-Grindeff, the Canada Bureau Chief for the New York Times.

  Poisoned Trust on Canada's Campuses 31.08.2026 38นาที

  In August 2026, the Government of Canada released a report titled Campus Antisemitism and Student Experiences. The survey found that “95.7% of Jewish students said they had experienced or witnessed at least one instance of antisemitism over the previous 12 months.”So the back to school jitters are hitting differently for some kids. There have been other issues involving staff, administrations, and unions too, affecting both Jewish professors and non-Jewish professors.  Today we hear from three Canadian academics bringing you their stories from campuses that, nearly 3 years after October 7, might be unrecognizable to you.Further Reading:Campus Antisemitism and Student Experiences — Government of CanadaThe antisemitism report that erases a century of Jewish debate — The Globe & MailStanding United Against Antisemitism: Protecting Communities and Strengthening Canadian Democracy — Senate of CanadaAntisemitism in Ontario’s K-12 Schools — Government of CanadaToronto Metropolitan University External Review 2025-2026Jewish students on Canadian campuses report pervasive antisemitism in survey — The Globe & MailFederal Campus Antisemitism Report Fails to Represent Jewish Student Diversity — Independent Jewish Voices CanadaCampus Antisemitism Report Hid a Key Finding that Turns the Results Upside Down — The GrindJohn Ivison: The Canadian university teacher facing firing for daring to denounce Hamas — The National PostJohn Ivison: University instructor fights back after being suspended for daring to denounce Hamas — The National PostNon-Jewish professor says he was fired for calling out Hamas supporters in online post — Fox News DigitalCurrently listed entities — Government of Canada, Public SafetyPalestine: Education International members offer a lifeline of solidarity to Gaza’s educators — Education InternationalHost: Jesse BrownCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer, Senior Production Supervisor), Chad Galloway (Audio Editing & Production), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Featured guests: Jack Jedwab, Paul Finlayson, Jeff MarcusFact checking by: Tristan CapacchioneAdditional music by: Audio NetworkSponsors: Douglas: Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

  How the Trade War Just Changed Everything with Canadian Culture and Tech 28.08.2026 34นาที

  As trade negotiations broke down, Canadian streaming policy, CanCon requirements, and French language discoverability have taken a surprisingly central role in the narrative. Mark Carney says last minute US trade demands threatened our cultural sovereignty, while US Trade Representative Jameson Greer called this a “funny, fake story.” Digital law expert Michael Geist joins to talk about where digital policies fit into the trade discussion, the future of Canadian digital policy, and whether recent developments in the trade war present an opportunity to decouple from US tech giants. Host: Jesse BrownCredits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons (Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor)Guest: Michael GeistPhoto: Bryan BerlinFurther reading: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/dominic-leblanc-greer-culture-language-9.7322393 Ottawa rejected last-minute U.S. demand to drop Cancon rules for streamers - The Globe and Mail Opinion | Mark Carney may be on the verge of making an unwise concession to TrumpU.S. trade talks fuel worry in Canada over tech and AI rules - National PostAlignment on digital trade threatens Canada’s ability to have a say over our lives online | Canadian Anti-Monopoly ProjectQuebec's French language, identity weren't targeted despite Carney's claims, U.S. envoy saysFrance's top court blocks social media ban for under-15s | ReutersMeta agrees to make changes, pay up to $18B US over social media harms to children | CBC News Hamilton's AI data centre moratorium vote inspires other Ontario cities - Hamilton SpectatorEdmonton baker goes viral responding to cultural appropriation allegations | Daily Hive | News   Sponsors:Douglas: Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

  Does War with Trump Mean War on our Unions? 25.08.2026 34นาที

  Mark Carney’s government is reviewing Canada’s Labour Code, and one of the biggest questions on the table is the right to strike.In recent years, the federal government has increasingly used Section 107 to intervene in strikes involving workers in industries like rail, airlines, and the postal service. Now, employers are pushing for new rules that could give the government more tools to prevent major work stoppages in the first place.So what could change? Why do employers want it? What do unions think? And if the government already has Section 107, why rewrite the Labour Code at all?Host: Noor AzriehCredits: Aviva Lessard (Senior Producer), Sam Konnert (Host/Producer), Noor Azrieh (Host/Producer), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor), Tony Wang (Artwork)Guests: Christopher Monette, Derrick Hynes, Adam Donald King, MP Don DaviesPhoto: WestJet ComponentBackground reading:Read Mark Carney's full speech after trade talks with the U.S. collapsed – CBC NewsU.S.-Canada Trade War: What to Know About Tariffs and the Negotiations – The New York TimesTrump threatens 50% tariffs on all cars and trucks from Canada amid trade fight – ReutersUnions warn Carney government is considering sweeping changes to labour law — including the right to strike – CBC NewsCanadian employers urge Carney to stop some strikes before they begin – Financial PostMark Carney’s Government is Rushing Through Major Changes to Canada’s Labour Laws.

  How Canada Wins at Defence 24.08.2026 32นาที

  As recent events in Ukraine, Russia, and Iran have clearly demonstrated, the nature of modern warfare is changing fast (think: drones). Canada will get left behind if it doesn’t start innovating fast. And that could have not just a winning effect on its defence capabilities but also it’s an opportunity to stimulate other industries. Host Stephen Marche explores the advent of drone warfare with Tim Mak, Kyiv-based publisher of The Counteroffensive; and Cameron Chell, a Canadian  aerospace and defence tech entrepreneur at Dragonfly, shares how the nascent Canadian drone industry can drive technological innovation, not just in the defence sphere but also in a multitude of other uses that will bolster the country’s economy. Follow the Gloves Off podcast here: https://www.gloves-off.ca/season-2 Host: Stephen MarcheCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Special thanks: Dory Smith (Director of Advertising and Partnerships)Further Reading:Gloves Off Research, see EP. 205 for details about today’s episodeCanadian Shield InstituteNext month on Off The Record we are back to our call-in show format.

  Are e-Scooters a Public Menace or the Future of Transportation? 21.08.2026 34นาที

  E-scooters are making headlines as a dangerous transportation option. From Xav Trudeau not wearing a helmet in an e-Scooter ad, to editorials calling them a scourge. Are they a dangerous public nuisance or a sign that we haven’t yet embraced the future of transportation? Arno Kopecky joins Julian Abraham to kick around the coverage of electric micromobility options, and to consider if Canada is a regressive country when it comes to transportation. Plus, why we shouldn’t refer to any agreement with Trump as a “deal.”Host: Julian AbrahamCredits: James Nicholson (Producer), Kallan Lyons (Associate Producer and Fact Checking), Caleb Thompson (Mixing and Mastering), Tristan Capacchione (Senior Production Supervisor), Jesse Brown (Editor)Guest: Arno KopeckyPhoto: Kristoffer Trolle Next month on Off The Record we are back to our call-in show format.
