Hello and welcome to rabble radio, the proud reemergence of our weekly audio magazine. Rabble radio has its finger on the beat of the issues that matter to you. This week, we’re talking about the issues that are conspicuously absent from the federal election thus far. And, we’re talking youth voting. After that I’ll take you through last week’s headlines in a segment called “in case you missed it.”
Earlier this month rabble.ca presented our monthly edition of “Off the Hill” – a panel that takes a look at federal politics from a progressive, grassroots perspective. The theme was “Election 44: No Time to Waste on the Status Quo.” Our panelists included: former NDP MP Libby Davies, climate activist Diana Yoon, Indigenous activist and educator Rachel Snow and rabble’s own columnist and policy expert Chuka Ejeckman. Here’s the first twenty minutes of their discussion, hosted by Robin Browne.
