Rob Breakenridge Show Episode 23: The Nova Scotia woods ban; Ukraine's fate could hang in the balance this week

Welcome to another edition of the Rob Breakenridge Show - here’s what we have for you in this episode:We’ll delve into the debate over public safety vs. individual liberties and the question of whether Nova Scotia has gone too far in its wildfire prevention measures. That province has instituted a complete ban on entering the woods, subject to a fine of $25,000. The Canadian Constitution Foundation has raised concern over the policy and is pushing back - we’ll hear from CCF counsel Josh Dehaas. Plus, we’ll examine the precarious position Ukraine finds itself in ahead of the meeting later this week between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Ukraine’s president is not invited to the meeting, even though it could prove to be very consequential for Ukraine’s borders, its sovereignty, and its future. We’ll have analysis from Aurel Braun, Professor of International Relations and Political Science at the University of Toronto and also a Research Associate of the Centre for Russian and East European Studies.Don’t forget, you can follow our work and subscribe here at our Substack page (robbreakenridge.ca), which is where the podcast is hosted.
