With the imminent upheaval of abortion rights to the south, Canada’s media reflects on the state of things here at home. And going by headlines, you’d think Canada’s ban on gay men giving blood was repealed – but you’d be only somewhat correct. Jeopardy! champ Mattea Roach joins Canadaland news editor Jonathan Goldsbie to look at rights, laws, and how the media mediates our understanding of both.
As Bluesky rides high, Jesse finally quits Twitter (two years too late.) Co-host Douglas Soltys explains why the fediverse might be our last best hope for social media.
