Note: Naturally between recording this episode and publishing it, David Johnston announced that he's resigning as the Government's Special Rapporteur. We'll have our takes on that next week. Nevertheless we still had a bunch of things to talk about from a larger list on possible housing targets to social media blocking news content. We also look at the Conservatives interventions in Calgary housing debates and the federal budget and finally that Canada is on fire.
