Socialism with Canadian Characteristics (Ft. Yves Engler)

Get access to The Backroom (80+ exclusive episodes) on Patreon): https://www.patreon.com/OneDimeIn this episode of the 1Dime Radio podcast, I interview Yves Engler, “Canada’s Noam Chomsky” - an activist, academic who ran for the leadership of the New Democratic Party of Canada (The NDP). We discuss the problems with the NDP today (and when it was under the leadership of Jagmeet, Layton, and Mulcair), and Yves’s vision of radical democratic socialism. In The Backroom, Yves and I  debate his controversial takes on NATO, the Russia–Ukraine war, and Canadian foreign policy.
