Liberals misrepresented police intel to justify Emergencies Act
About this episode
The RCMP’s long-awaited review of its response to the Freedom Convoy is out, showing that officers were concerned they had been politicized by the federal government’s handling of the protest. Crucially, the RCMP has called out the government for “misrepresenting” police information, or claiming information came from the police when it didn’t. True North’s Andrew Lawton weighs in.
Also, the Ontario government is cracking down on cell phone use in classrooms, but education advocates say the ban doesn’t go far enough. Fraser Institute researcher Paige MacPherson joins to discuss.
Plus, young Canadians are less likely to couple up and the ones that do are having fewer and fewer children. Dr. Tim Sargent of the Centre for the Study of Living Standards joins to unpack Canada’s fertility crisis.
