ICYMI this week ...
A weekly round-up from the headlines from the Daily News podcast
This past week, I was on The Hatchet. Or really, I was on a few weeks ago, but it aired last week. Arshy Mann and I take a critical look at the Avi Lewis campaign. I don’t think we’re too critical, though I’d be curious to hear your thoughts. Criticisms aside, I think that Lewis’ interventions this past week are evidence of how much Canada has needed someone who can challenge things directly.
Here are the headlines from the past week from the Daily News podcast …
