How free is Canada as a country? It’s a question that Tara's guest on the podcast today tackled in a book, back in 2020. He concluded that our freedom was actually pretty precarious. Philip Slayton is a Canadian lawyer and a former dean of law at Western University. He’s also a former president of PEN Canada, and a bestselling author. His latest book is Nothing Left To Lose: An Impolite Report on the State of Freedom in Canada. Philip joins Tara today for a lively, state-of-the-nation conversation, looking at how the pandemic, growing economic inequality, and the use of the Emergencies Act to quash the trucker protests impacted freedom in this country.You can find Tara Henley on Twitter at @TaraRHenley, and on Substack at tarahenley.substack.com
