After taking public money and with commitments to protect Canadian jobs, Stellantis is shifting production from Brampton to Illinois. Incredibly, the company’s president told us that Canada “is more than a market, it’s a home” at the same time as it abandons our workers and undermines the sector.

Phil Demers, Marineland trainer turned whistleblower, joins me for an #uncommonspod recorded outside Marineland’s gates. We talk about different solutions to save the remaining whales and other animals, and why governments should lead on this instead of playing a reactive role.

Back at Malvern to make the case for why politics matters and to answer wide-ranging questions. This kind of engagement really does inform my advocacy. And apart from class visits, our youth council is a good outlet for getting involved.

Remembering the legend that is Dr. Jane Goodall.

She left a lasting legacy as a voice for nature, animals, gender equality, and a better world for all of us. And she inspired so many to do the same.
