In this episode of The Pipeline, Paul, Derek and Deirdre discuss the latest with the blockades happening around the country, and the non-confidence vote that was (almost) introduced as a result.
We also look at The Western Standard’s biggest story this week – the Bloc’s motion on the Teck mine approval.
We delve into the befuddling state of the gaffe-prone propaganda tool of the Alberta government, the Canadian Energy Centre.
And we wrap up with the story about the Edmonton Eskimos professional football team, and their recent efforts to clear their name – literally – with the Inuit of Canada.
The Pipeline is The Western Standard’s weekly national affairs program. Each week, The Western Standard Publisher Derek Fildebrandt and Digital Editor Paul Holmes break down the issues from the week, discuss them in-depth and examine some of the broader implications, focusing particularly on how they affect Western Canada. We were also joined this week by Dierdre Mitchell-McLean, Senior Reporter.
