Lots to get to on this episode, beginning with a new conflict in the Middle East. It’s still very unclear at this point where things are headed between Israel and Iran - and whether the US might still enter the fray. As Israel targets Iran’s nuclear facilities and military structure and leadership, Iran has been sending ballistic missiles toward Israel - with varying degrees of success. Adam Zivo joins us with an update from Israel - Adam is a commentator, a National Post columnist, also director of the Canadian Center for Responsible Drug Policy.
Also, a closer look at the debate around Alberta’s coal policy and the concern over coal mining along the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains - in particular, the Grassy Mountain project, which now has a green light. There was a pretty packed and raucous town hall meeting recently in Fort Macleod where the premier and three cabinet ministers heard an earful from worried and angry residents. We’ll have a conversation with Alberta country singer and songwriter Corb Lund, who has found himself at the centre of this debate and was in attendance at that town hall meeting. He has a lot to say about this issue.
Plus, the G7 leaders summit in Kananaskis has now wrapped up and we’ll share with you a really cool story from the summit. Graham Sherman, who owns Tool Shed Beer and Barbecue in Calgary, had the opportunity to be in Kananaskis and prepare and serve BBQ to all of these world leaders. He’ll tell us more about this amazing experience.
