Canada! Isn’t it a multicultural paradise where people leave their doors unlocked and every morning citizens of all nations come together to share syrup-glazed pancakes?? Well, not so fast you lanyard-wearing lib! Seems under the surface all is not so well with our amicable Canuck friends in the great white north. I talked to the ever loveable and knowledgeable Josh D’Addario about Canada’s deeper problems. How did a country with a deeply troubling treatment of Native Americans and the environment come to be seen as a liberal Valhalla in the media? Is it all down to pretty-boy Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or has washing with sweet maple syrup always been the Canadian way? Come for that, stay for the Drake-bashing.
