Listen now
Description
Trump’s 34 felony convictions made history in the U.S., but will his efforts to undermine the Rule of Law have an effect on Canadian attitudes towards the legal system?  And the CBC is (once again) accused of anti-Palestinian bias, this time in its documentary division. Lawyer and journalist Julie Sobowale helps us unpack the legal and labour implications of a series of inflammatory tweets.
