Listen "#190 - URA gets backlash for apparent powers of safe distancing officers & the NDP poster that spurred racist comments"
Episode Synopsis
A viral CCTV video uploaded by local actor Nick Mikhail showed safe distancing officers and ambassadors entering his home without a warrant, under suspicion of COVID-19 breaches. URA fired back, but did they dig a bigger hole for themselves? What powers do safe distancing folk have anyway? Elsewhere, a Govt poster for NDP that showed an Indian family stirred up racist comments online, but is it fair criticism?
