CANADALAND

Que retenir de 2024? Beaucoup de sujets lourds, et quelques moments plus légers, affirme Manal Drissi au micro d’Emilie Nicolas. Ensemble, Manal et Emilie reviennent sur des événements marquants de l’année et dressent, en filigrane, un portrait critique de nos médias. Au menu de cet épisode du temps des fêtes, les liens entre transphobie et misogynie qui ont traversé les discours portés sur Imane Khelif, cette boxeuse médaillée d’or aux JO de Paris ; les viols de Mazan et la montée du masculinisme ; la controverse Haroun Bouazzi et le rôle que jouent les éditorialistes dans le traitement de l’actualité ; et enfin la manière dont les médias couvrent la situation à Gaza. En deuxième partie d’émission, Manal Drissi revient sur son retrait des médias depuis la pandémie et nous rappelle l’importance de prendre notre temps.

What to remember from 2024? Lots of heavy subjects and a few lighter moments, says Manal Drissi to Emilie Nicolas. Together, Manal and Emilie look back on some of the significant events of the year and provide, implicitly, a critical portrait of our media. On the menu for this holiday season episode, the links between transphobia and misogyny which ran through the story of Imane Khelif, the young boxer who won gold at the Paris Olympics; the Mazan rapes and the rise of masculinism; the Haroun Bouazzi controversy and the role that editorialists play in covering current events; and finally the way in which the media cover the situation in Gaza. In the second part of the show, Manal Drissi talks about her withdrawal from the media since the pandemic and reminds us of the importance of taking our time and slow living.

This is part two of our mini series: Black Market Babies (part one, here).

It’s a family story that lay hidden for decades. Then the tech was born, the DNA came to light, and after the shock, the investigation began.

An underworld tale of the international baby smuggling ring that bought and sold hundreds of newborns out of Montreal in the 1950s.

A family story told by the families. One reporter whose own mother was bought and sold. And another whose own DNA tied her to the one of the alleged masterminds behind the black market baby trade.

Testifying in Parliament last week, Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown revealed how India affected his 2022 bid to lead the Conservative Party of Canada. But was he a victim of foreign interference, as reported by CBC/Radio-Canada, or a willing conduit for Indian interests? San Grewal of The Pointer joins to explain how (and why) CBC got spun. 

Note: Jaskaran Sandhu did not reply to our request for comment in advance of publishing this episode.

UPDATE (12/11/24): after publication, Jaskaran Sandhu responded to Canadaland’s request for comment with the following: “I did not bring, place, plant, or spin this foreign interference story to the CBC. I wish I was that powerful. But it is kind of nice knowing those like San think I am.”

People on the left call her a police informant, a self-hating Palestinian, a racist, a Zionist, a TERF, and a fascist. But she also has haters on the right, labelling her a leftist, Antifa, and a World Economic Forum diva. 

She’s a lawyer by trade. But describes herself online as a journalist, a satirist, a media personality and a protest watcher. That last title is the one that brings the most trouble.

Anti-vax protests, freedom convoy protests, anti-trans protests, Israel/Palestine protests, over the last few years she’s captured and posted an archive of protest footage few mainstream outlets have either the time or resources to rival. Along the way she’s managed to irk the entire political spectrum.

She's been criticized by the Canadian Association of Journalists, the Canadian Anti Hate Network, and the Law Society of Ontario for allegedly harassing behaviour.

But how? Why? Caryma Sa'd joins Jesse Brown to answer those questions.

Le Collège québécois des médecins de famille s’est récemment doté d’une nouvelle présidente, la docteure Geneviève Bois. La carrière foisonnante de cette praticienne engagée touche à de nombreux enjeux qui résonnent profondément avec les défis que le système de santé public peine à relever: médecine à deux (voire trois) vitesses, déterminants sociaux de la santé, médecine en milieu éloigné, et santé reproductive des femmes. Emilie Nicolas reçoit donc la docteure Geneviève Bois, non pas en tant que présidente du Collège des médecins de famille, mais en tant que soignante. Depuis ses études de médecine jusqu’à sa pratique à Eeyou Istchee et dans des centres de santé des femmes au sud du Québec, la docteure Bois revient sur ses engagements et sa vision de la médecine, une science avant tout humaine. 

The Collège québécois des médecins de famille recently appointed a new president, Dr. Geneviève Bois. The prolific career of this committed practitioner touches on many issues that deeply resonate with challenges the public health system is struggling to meet: two- (or even three-)tier medicine, social determinants of health, medicine in remote areas, and women’s reproductive health. Emilie Nicolas talks health with Dr. Bois, not in her role as president of the Collège des médecins de famille, but as a physician. From her medical studies to her practice in Eeyou Istchee and in women’s health centres in southern Quebec, Dr. Bois reflects on her commitments and her vision of medicine, a science that is above all a human science.
