La guerre au Moyen Orient impacte les Canadiens d’origine arabe de diverses manières. Pour Rim Mohsen, québécoise d’origine libanaise, l’un des changements les plus personnels a été celui de réévaluer et repenser son identité et ses interactions avec les autres.

But if you actually look under the hood you’ll discover that they stopped printing the newspaper in Regina. They stopped editing it in Regina. The editor lives somewhere else. And as far the CBC goes, well, that acronym is now synonymous with layoffs. Everyone from the legacy media who purports to be telling people in Regina what is going on in their own community is doing so with less resources than ever before. These are zombie news organizations. That creates a news vacuum. A place for someone new to step in. And somebody did.And that somebody peddles garbage. That's not a value judgment of this new news source in Regina. It's just the objective truth. They're a garbage company called Just Bins. They provide dumpsters

It’s all about the T.“T” as in the T at the end of ChatGPT. That T stands for Transformer. And it’s already transforming many aspects of your life. Novelist and essayist Stephen Marche recently investigated that T for the New Yorker magazine. He came away from the experience saying that it is the most important story he’s ever written.  His piece details what he calls the Manhattan Project of our time. He also calls it, simply, magic, and he then goes on to define  magic as “the word we use for things that are hugely powerful but we don't understand why.”Marche joins Jesse Brown to tackle the questions: why was Toronto a hotbed for A.I. (as marked by last week’s awarding of the Nobel Prize to U of T prof Geoffrey Hinton for his pioneering work in the field)? Why is the Japanese punk band Transformer at the very heart of this whole story? And why exactly does Marche equate T with magic?Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer)

Dans le Canada de 2024, beaucoup se sentent exclus, déshumanisés et se rendent compte que la place qu’ils croyaient occuper n’existe pas en réalité. Pour faire face à cet enjeu existentiel, et pour faire sens d’un monde hostile et brutal, Emilie Nicolas a invité le sociologue Philippe Néméh-Nombré. Le professeur de l’Université Saint-Paul (Ottawa) est auteur d’un nouveau livre, ‘Improviser le reste. Études noires, risques poétiques, relationalité décoloniale”, dans lequel il explore le rôle des études noires, de la débrouillardise et de l’inventivité pour se réinventer. Ensemble, Emilie et Philippe discutent de la manière dont les études noires permettent de critiquer et comprendre le monde contemporain et ses rapports de pouvoir. Ils montrent que les études noires peuvent nous outiller pour mieux définir notre place. La deuxième partie de l’émission s’intéresse aux campus universitaires: comment est-ce que les étudiants, notamment étrangers, vivent le contexte actuel? Et quelle place occupent les études noir

The late Norval Morrisseau is known as Canada's Picasso. He was the father of the Woodlands style. His work was exhibited at the Pompidou Center in Paris, the National Gallery of Canada, and he was a member of the Order of Canada. Morrisseau is without question one of the most important painters in Canadian history. So why are so-called original Morrisseau paintings selling on eBay for $129? The answer is fraud. The market has been flooded with thousands of fake Morrisseau paintings and prints. In March 2023, eight people were charged and arrested in connection with these fakes and are now starting to be convicted. The police investigation started, in part, because of the Jamie Kastner documentary There Are No Fakes.Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Kevin O’Keefe (Fact Checking), max collins (Production Manager), Jesse Brown (Host and Publisher)Featured guests: Ryan McMahon and Jamie KastnerAdditional music by Audio NetworkFurther informa

Le 30 septembre est désormais la journée nationale de la Vérité et de la Réconciliation. Mais pour l’avocat, ancien député et organisateur communautaire Alexis Wawanoloath, on ne peut atteindre la réconciliation entre les Peuples autochtones et l’État colonial qu’en prenant le temps de mener un processus, long et difficile, de guérison et de restitution. Alexis Wawanoloath démontre que les intérêts politiques et économiques des agences gouvernementales priment toujours sur les droits des communautés autochtones, dans le continuum d’un projet colonial amorcé il y a des siècles. Dans la deuxième partie de l’émission, Emilie échange avec son invité sur la place des personnes autochtones dans les médias. Ensemble, ils se demandent comment dépasser le phénomène de ‘tokenisation’ et si tous deux doivent vivre avec ça. September 30th is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. But for the lawyer, former MNA and community organizer Alexis Wawanoloath, reconciliation between Indigenous Peoples and the colon
