And to Andre Goulet for producing and Chris Hernandez at Studio Petit Palais in Montreal for mastering.In this episode, we chat about Canada's response to the U.S.-France-U.K. strikes on Syria, our comrade Nora Loreto receiving coordinated attacks and abuse from the far-right for a perfectly reasonable tweet, and Alberta's new abortion bubble law. we also interview our friend and comrade Michael Bueckert (@mbueckert) about his recent article for Africa Is A Country about the "free speech" debates in the 1980s over apartheid on Canadian campuses — and how nothing at all has changed since.here's a link to Michael's article: https://africasacountry.com/2018/04/no-platform-for-apartheidand a great piece in Briarpatch about Nora's situation: https://briarpatchmagazine.com/blog/view/canadas-right-wing-rage-machine-vs-nora-loretoand our Patreon if you feel like supporting us: https://www.patreon.com/newsyoucanuseand finally Ricochet, which is now helping us distribute our pod! https://ricochet.media/en
