from The Big Five Podcast · host CJAD 800
Akil Alleyne is joined by Meeker Guerrier, commentator at Noovo and RDS, and Raphaël Melançon, political analyst for CTV Montreal and CJAD 800, and columnist for the Montreal Gazette. Watchdogs cleared former Liberal leader Pablo Rodriguez of wrongdoing, suspecting leaked text messages were completely fabricated. A new Léger poll shows the CAQ jumping four points into a second-place tie as tariff tensions benefit Premier Fréchette. Donald Trump threatened auto tariffs and a Lake Ontario renaming while denying he ever targeted French Canadians. Montreal City Council passed a heavily watered-down Gaza motion after stripping out all boycott and apartheid language. The panel reflects on twenty years of public access to Facebook and the broader cultural impact of social media.
