Bob Rae: Is Canada Entering an Age of Tyranny?
Description
In our first edition of a monthly segment, Steve is joined by “the most difficult man to introduce in Canada,” Bob Rae, to discuss how we are increasingly seeing behaviour in the world that is “tyrannical,” the fallout from the Iran War, why it has achieved nothing, why Canada must be more than just a bystander, and why Blaise Pascal’s maxim from the 17th century helps us understand the world today: “Justice without force is powerless; force without justice is tyrannical.”
They also discuss Canada’s new Governor General, Louise Arbour, the rising separatist sentiments in Canada, the dilemma Pierre Poilievre is facing, and the state of the Toronto Blue Jays.
