En début de semaine, la chroniqueuse Toula Drimonis a vu la publication en français de son livre "Nous, les autres", suite au succès de la version originale anglaise en 2022. Fille d'immigrants grecs, l'auteure partage son vécu ainsi que celui des immigrants d'autres horizons au sein de la société québécoise. Dans un contexte où les débats sur l'immigration retournent à l'avant-scène de l'actualité, Toula se joint à Emilie pour évoquer les risques liés à l'attribution de la crise du logement à l'immigration. Parallèlement, alors que les immigrantes sont surreprésentées dans des maisons d’hébergement du Québec, leurs voix sont-elles entendues dans le paysage médiatique actuel ?
AVERTISSEMENT : Dans la deuxième partie de cet épisode, nous discutons de violence à caractère sexuelle et de violence basée sur le genre.

Earlier this week, columnist Toula Drimonis saw the publication in French of her book "Nous, les autres", following the success of the original English version in 2022. As the daughter of Greek immigrants, she shares her experiences and those of immigrants from other backgrounds within Quebec society. With debates on immigration once again taking centre stage in the news, Toula joins Emilie in discussing the risks of associating the housing crisis solely with an increase in immigration. And while immigrant women are over-represented Quebec shelters, are their voices heard in today's media landscape?
WARNING: In the second half of the episode, the co-hosts discuss sexual violence and gender-based violence. If you are seeking support, the following link will direct you to resources across Canada: https://canadianwomen.org/support-services/

Every social media platform prizes something different. With Instagram, it’s aesthetics. On TikTok, it’s theatre-kid energy. And with Twitter, it was information and wit, conveyed via the written word.
Jonathan Goldsbie is very good at Twitter. But Twitter is no longer Twitter.
Every platform gradually withers — but since Elon Musk purchased it, the site’s ongoing transformation into the very worst version of itself has been by design.
So what’s a person like Goldsbie to do, when confronted with the prospect of terminal, destructive decline? What happens when X spots a mark?

From cash cows to scapegoats, has there been a change in how we talk about international students? And how Canada’s provincial governments have, one by one, told the Canada Border Services Agency that they no longer want a role in a system decried as inhumane.
Clarification: Canadaland would like to clarify there are other requirements to maintain a permanent residency in Canada. One such example is a residency requirement. While there are some exceptions, individuals generally need to have spent at least 730 days (the equivalent of two years) in Canada over the previous five years.

For years Canadian media has been saying that Canada is a world leader in regulating big tobacco and is a global success story when it comes to weaning the public off of cigarettes.
Last week there were headlines about the decline of tobacco use in Canada — according to the World Health Organization stats that say we are beating just about every country when it comes to convincing people to kick the habit.
Given the tone and the content of news coverage on Canada's anti-smoking effort, and you might have the idea that:
According to Max Krangle, a lawyer who worked for Big Tobacco companies like RJ Reynolds for 12 years, you would be wrong. He says the cigarette business is more profitable than ever and that government regulations are the reason why.
Correction: In a previous edition of this episode, the guest Max Krangle said that, to account for tobacco revenue loss, income tax would have to increase by 10%. Host Jesse Brown, misinterpreted this and asked if that would mean that tobacco revenue accounts for 10% of total tax revenue. Krangle mistakenly agreed. That exchange has been removed.

Activist Esra’a Al-Shafei has gone to extreme lengths to keep her image offline. But one day that privacy was breached — or so she thought.
Her story is just one of many of the real life impacts of our development and use of artificial intelligence.
Can Canada create a guardrail good enough to protect us — and our data — from these kinds of harms? Or have we passed the point of no return?

For newsrooms across the country, covering the war with Israel and Palestine has been tremendously difficult. Tensions are high, emotions are very fragile, and resources are at record lows. Today, we're going to try to give you some idea of just what it has been like for journalists to work under these conditions.
Canadaland Editor-in-Chief, Karyn Pugliese, sits down with Dave Seglins, a CBC journalist who spent 25 years as a frontline reporter and investigative journalist. After experiencing work-related PTSD, he's purposed himself as a champion of well-being in the newsroom. She also speaks with Brent Jolly, the president of the Canadian Association of Journalists, about what he's hearing from reporters across the country.
