“This podcast hits home on so many levels. Free trade was a lie and Brian Mulroney the biggest liar.
This in-depth dissection of how we got to this gig economy should be heard by all.
Excellent work!”

“As just another Canadian who consumes way too much American content, I turn to Canadaland and Commons for a refreshing, thorough and high-quality investigation into important and often-overlooked Canadian issues.
Excellent journalism!”

“I don’t listen to every season because the topics don’t always appeal to me, but the new season about Work is excellent. The experience of workers in our economy is something journalists haven’t paid enough attention to. This podcast does!”

Something I already knew from voluntourism but learning about We Charity was mind blowing. Since that series, I’ve been a...”Read full review »

“This is a really interesting and though provoking podcast. I don’t always agree with the conclusions but they are well presented and informative. One issue I have with this last season is the presentation of the Blackmore clan and its disgusting leader as misunderstood, blameless victims. A...”Read full review »

“One of my pet peeves in life is how news stories talking about racism in hockey or people of colour in hockey seem to almost always skip over players like Henry Maracle, Fred Sasakamoose, and Larry Kwong.
All these players played in the NHL long before Willie O’Ree. Kwong played in the QSHL...”Read full review »

“Have been listening to COMMONS for a little bit and am pretty addicted to PODCASTS in general. As a lifelong hockey player, fan, former coach/ Referee, essentially a rink rat. I found this to be one of the most compelling PODCATS I have listened to. As disturbing as some of it is thank you for...”Read full review »

“Decent narration but you do an episode on fighting in hockey and you choose to rehash the Derek Boogard story?? I believe this case has been well covered, no? A writer for the NY Times wrote a mediocre book about it that was a bestseller. This is a polarizing and exhaustive topic, and one that...”Read full review »

“Wow ! Terrific pod series (so far). No joke, in having listened to thousands of podcasts on hockey and Nova Scotia history - I have never learned as much from dozens of combined places (let alone classes, books, etc) than in this series. Wow ! Thank you for bringing this learning to me … us.”

“It’s interesting to learn about things in Canada. There is definitely a slant to their reporting. The host is definitely racist as well. If you can wade through his often whiny and very beta male personality and racist views, it’s a fun listen.”

There’s also a basic misunderstanding of what a state is and what a national army does...”Read full review »
