Manufacturing Dissent Since 1996
New interviews throughout the week
Jul 15
Does the American government have control over Canadian people because it controls the Canadian economy? The Canadian people are not necessarily the same as the people who control the economy. We have an oligarchy problem just like you do in the United States. To a large extent, that is a transnational conspiracy between oligarchs to dictate terms that will work for them.

Dónal Gill discusses the view of the United States from Canada in the age of MAGA. His essay appears in the new edited volume by The Dial, How We See It The World Looks at America in the Age of Trump (The New Press). 

"The Moment of Truth" with Jeff Dorchen follows the interview.

The back half of the show features an interview with host Chuck Mertz with questions from radio and streaming partner Beware the Radio.
