Has been lots if coverage on how bad Canada’s National defence has become, but i had no idea it was actually almost totally useless compared to our adversaries capabilities. Makes me wonder if we can catch up- don’t believe for a second we have...”Read full review »

“Thank you for covering this new development on governmental investment into defending and protecting the Arctic corridor. Perhaps now, more Canadians are more aware of just how vulnerable we are as a country. I live in the North, this issue is very concerning to all of us.”

It’s about hearing diverse opinions and perspectives and actually coming away with a realization that issues aren’t black and...”Read full review »

“Been a fan of Good Talk but increasingly becoming hard to listen to. Panel lacks balance and Bruce is simply incapable of criticizing LPC or Trudeau. Makes listening tedious. A centre/centre right voice is urgently needed. If you need an example of a more balanced panel, listen to Curse of...”Read full review »

“I tried this pod a few times, but the interview quality is horrible and almost unlistenable at times. I also think someone needs to write Mansbridge a better script for his intros - they tend to ramble and not really offer any depth on the topic. Maybe they will hone all of this with time, but...”Read full review »

“Chantal’s bias is too painful. She is not being fully honest - there are bylaws in the cities in Quebec that dictate restrictions. That is not a Legault/ provincial point of attack.”

“If you are a far left progressive or brain dead this podcast is for you. It’s the CBC on steroids. The only redeeming quality is that this podcast shows why elites in Canada are so incapable of understanding ordinary and non ideological Canadians views. Because they live in a bubble.”
