Canadaland

When Trudeau prorogued Parliament 26 bills were binned. Bills are the democratic process made concrete and the laws that they can turn into are the end product of the whole political machine. They decide whether you have the right to die by choice. They decide what you can and cannot say. They tell you whether or not you can go back to work or not because you can or cannot afford to send your kid to daycare. Each bill is the end result of years of campaigning, research, fundraising, debates, and compromise. So, multiply that by 26, then throw it all out.What bills were trashed? Are they gone forever? What should come back and what should stay in the bin?Jesse sorts the trash with conservative pundit and former Communications Director for Pierre Poilievre’s leadership campaign, Ginny Roth, as well as Katherine Scott from the Canadian Centre for Political Action, and digital law expert Michael Geist from the University of Ottawa.Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Prod
