Thankful, Eh? The Complicated Comeback of Canadian Pride

Canadian pride is rising again — but not without tension. In this Thanksgiving-inspired episode, Andrea and Hostion unpack what Canadians are really thankful for in 2025.From free healthcare and cultural diversity to colonial accountability and privilege, they explore how gratitude and pride intertwine — and why the most meaningful kind of patriotism is rooted in care, not comparison.With new data showing a 31-point surge in national pride (thanks, Trump), the duo digs into what this says about who we are and what kind of country we’re still becoming. Because being Canadian might mean being proud — but also being unsettled enough to demand better.🎧 Listen in for a conversation that’s honest, funny, and hopeful — like Canada itself.Let us know what you think of this episode!
