Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre spoke in support of a private member’s bill banning federal vaccine mandates. Liberal MPs including Mark Gerretsen and Seamus O’Regan said it was a “waste of time” and accused Poilievre of not being focused on real issues. True North’s Andrew Lawton says the Liberals just don’t want to be forced to defend their atrocious Covid record.
Also, True North journalist Noah Jarvis joins the show to discuss his series on waste, mismanagement and conflicts of interest at the federal clean technology crown corporation Sustainable Development Technology Canada.
Plus, lawyers Christine Van Geyn and Joanna Baron of the Canadian Constitution Foundation have a new book out about the government’s assaults on freedom over the last three years.
