Redline Debates: How Should We Remember the Freedom Convoy?

February 24
52 mins

Episode Description

Welcome to the first edition of The Paikin Podcast "Redline Debates." Four years ago this month, a convoy of truckers essentially took over the nation's capital, and beyond disrupting life there, it became a Rorschach test on how you felt about everything from vaccinations to parliamentary democracy. 

Justin Ling from the Toronto Star and Candice Malcolm from Juno News join to debate what the Freedom Convoy was all about, how history should remember it, how the media covered it, the fact that the vast majority of Canadians opposed the convoy, and the decision to use the Emergencies Act.
