Not Reserving Judgment
Episode 114: Tory MP wants to JAIL those who call for 'intifada.' Plus, Liberals propose special rules for 'femicide'.
On Episode 114, we explain why we think that banning calls to "globalize the intifada" would be counter-productive, we discuss the Liberals' new crime bill that would create special rules for "femicide," and we tell you who was naughty and who was nice for civil liberties in 2025.
