Description

A podcast for Canada, in a dangerous new world. The global order is shifting under our feet. Our best friend might become an enemy. It’s a psychic shock, and a threat to our sovereignty that demands a response. It's also an opportunity. So, what are we going to do about it?


Longtime journalist and podcast host Jordan Heath-Rawlings (The Big Story, The Gravy Train) examines this strange new world and gives Canadians real work we can take on right now, individually and as a country, to emerge from the chaos strong and free. This isn't a show about picking a fight. It's a show about being ready for one.

ironically or not when I posted this I was listening to Charlie Angus say "Talking Heads." I saw their lead singer David Byrne on the stage as I walked into the massive festival in Austin. this is the 1431 an amazing road I'll never see again because of Donald Trump. Your show is both enlightening and painful for grieving such a loss of such a neighbour. https://youtu.be/9z1EWAWu4QA?si=8CA5DYl4R0-RMngt

I met someone on the web. she was from Lago Vista Texas. it was Sept 18 2018 and Trump was well into his first term. I found it most fascinating. It was my first visit. I had a harder time getting back into Pearson International from Bergstrom in Austin. On the way back I was flying over Saskatchewan when Cannibas was legalized. so that was memorable. I also saw Paul Macartenay at #aclfest on Oct 12 in Zigler Park. also the Longhorn Caverns. I am sad about it all. https://youtube.com/shorts/NDZ

my friend is Mexican American. her family spent thousands of years on the land she currently faces persecution as she is married to a "white male". I fear she will soon become a target of state persecution. we need to look at our asylum seekers legislation and create some emergency pathways for my friends and many more who face a persecuting state ie "White" "HOUSE" =white supremacy. ~ Dave

🇨🇦 following with my Elbows Up! I was banned from Facebook and it's chain of techn-ofeudal prison cells that is American social media. Canada needs our own. or if you have any suggestions. I use Bluesky and yes Twitter as I search out like minded Tweeters. where I live there is only one grocery store. they are doing a pretty good job considering the options available (COOP Foods) please keep going with this show. it us a solution indeed. I'd like to perhaps send person on street interviews

As a retired IT professional, the term 'Hacker' isn't what I would have chosen, as it has a very negative connotation for me. I would have used 'technerd' That side, this was extremely thought-provoking and worth the listen.
