After ending the campaigns of several Tory candidates with his muckraking during the 2015 federal election, Macleans dubbed Robert Jago, "the most dangerous blogger in Canada".
The next year, Jago broke the Joseph Boyden scandal, and this past January he exposed Senator Lynn Beyak for publishing racist letters on her website, which resulted in her being ousted from the conservative caucus.
Jago has quickly risen as an incisive, evocative voice in Canadian media. He's now a regular contributor to The Walrus and CANADALAND — but he says he doesn't plan on giving up his day job anytime soon.
So. Who is this guy?
Robert Jago joins Jesse.

Why did an obscure Canadian psychology prof suddenly become an international media star? It's a much better question than "is he right or wrong?"

One year ago today, a 27-year-old white man, named Alexandre Bissonnette, walked into the Islamic Cultural Centre of Quebec City and opened fire on over 40 worshippers.
Azzeddine Soufiane, Mamadou Tanou Barry, Khaled Belkacemi, Aboubaker Thabti, Ibrahima Barry, and Abdelkrim Hassane were murdered. Five others were badly injured, including Aymen Derbali.
A year later, what — if anything — has changed? Many, like activist Syed Hussan, feel it has slipped from our collective conscious.
Hussan recently went to the scene of the massacre in Quebec City, and wrote about it, in an effort to combat our country's "collective forgetting."
We attempt to make sense of a senseless act — and look at how the media played a role before, during, and after the massacre.
Hussan and The Imposter's Aliya Pabani are urging Canadians to remember and share where they were on January 29, 2017. You can learn more about their #RememberJan29 project here.

Conspiracies! They're out there... and Vice Canada's Mack Lamoureux is getting to the bottom of them.
You name it, he's covered it: The Berenst(a)ein Bears. Hollow Earth Theory. Iraq Stargate...
But what happens when these twisted narratives stop being just kooky, and start getting scary? As extremist right-wing groups grow their presence in Canada, and around the world, there's a personal cost to covering conspiracists.
Mack's 8-month-long investigation into Canada's armed, anti-Islamic "patriot" group — 'the III%ers'— is alarming:
"Connected to the anti-Islam sentiment is a sense of paranoia in the group, one that is reinforced by the sharing of debunked news stories and far-right wing commentary from sites like Rebel Media or Infowars. The members of the group, like their counterparts worldwide, are distrustful of mainstream news and often stray into extreme conspiratorial territory."
Mack Lamoureux joins guest host Omar Mouallem.
