Canadian history by virtue of biased and priviliaged diatribe
Instead of presenting facts so I can make my own decision. Most statements are punctuated with a groan or judgemental retort. For instance, they are insensed that historical buildings and highways were built by hand with labour which included tools, like pick axes, hammers and saws. Captured workers had 8 hour work days and the hosts describe this as "brutal". The ignorance is strong with these hosts; sounding like they have never put in a hard days work. Canadian history by virtue of biased and priviliaged diatribe. Try to show respect to your source material and history by not framing it through hipster lenses. Also, the bias is exacerbated by expressing personal negative feeling. The listener will better understand historical atrociousness by following up each statement with different supporting facts.Read full review »

That being said, the personal commentary and heavily biased comments take away from the effectiveness of the podcast. Rather than letting the listener form their...Read full review »
