Call the Question welcomes our first-ever male guest, Jagmeet Singh, to the pod. We talk with Canada's NDP leader about the intersections between race- and gender-based discrimination in politics, being judged based on how one looks, and his case for the need for truly universal, head-to-toe health care in Canada. Lesli and Maria also discuss the harrowing story of former university elite athlete Megan Brown, and how some universities and sport organizations appear to ignore sexual misconduct in amateur sport in the drive to win...at any cost.You can follow Jagmeet Singh on Twitter @theJagmeetSingh.Read Michael Doyle's expose on the University of Guelph and Megan Brown's story in the Globe and Mail: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-athlete-breaks-silence-about-sexual-misconduct-of-university-of-guelph/
