I’m of two minds with them. On the one hand, they’re doing more and better journalism than most Canadian media, but on the other hand Jesse seems to have a number of blind spots when it comes to Israel. That recent interview with the Israeli ambassador for instance was an embarrassment for example. He did everything he’s often critical of other journalists doing when covering Trump: he platformed a liar, knowing he would lie, and didn’t challenge him on any of his lies.
I’m a bit behind on the episodes at the moment. Did they do a story of what went down in Amsterdam?
I’m wary as well. The fact that Karyn Pugliese is out was a sign. Jesse admits his role within Canadaland fairly regularly. That said, I get the feeling there’s now a point-counterpoint vibe to Canadaland.
No episode mentioning Amsterdam yet.
That said, the show hasn’t been the same for a while. I think it started with the White Whale: he knew Assange was getting out.

I hope Canadalandback continues.
