Alert! Radio #150 - 

Professor Arthur Schafer, director of the Centre for Professional and Applied Ethics at the University of Manitoba, discusses issues of free speech and hate speech that arise from the cancellation of Ann Coulter’s talk at the University of Ottawa.

Art Sterrit, executive director of the Coastal First Nations describes the inevitable damages expected from the proposed Enbridge Norther pipeline and its supertankers that would penetrate into the heart of BC’s Great Bear Rainforest. Art outlines the campaign mounted by a coalition of 150 native bands, several environmental organizations and dozens of prominent individuals including Margaret Atwood, David Suzuki, Thomas Berger, Bruce Cockburn and ten Olympic athletes. Some are saying that the Enbridge dispute may be the defining battle for a new generation concerned about climate change and global dependence on oil.
