El Jones responds to a question on how young men are reshaping conservatism in Canada. She unpacks the idea that movements like #MeToo, Black Lives Matter, and Land Back have somehow pushed society “radically to the left” challenging the notion that fighting for equity is extreme. El argues that justice and inclusion comes at no one’s expense —and pushes back on the narrative that progress is a threat.

This is a clip from rabble’s most recent live politics panel: Off the Hill: Post-election plans and possibilities.

Co-hosted by Libby Davies and Robin Browne. Off the Hill is a fast-paced live panel on current issues of national significance, hosted by Robin Browne and Libby Davies.
