Images of women and children being tear gassed at the US border lays bear the moral and humanitarian crisis. But what about Canada?

We're back! After some time off Radio Free Winnipeg is back with a new series of shows.

Canadians usually frame themselves in relation to America so they either set the bar at being simply “better” than America (low bar to set) and use that as

In Radio Free Winnipeg's 6th episode on Fascism and antifa Scott and Greg discuss the limits of antifa. While there have been several recent successes, ie Richard Spencer's comments not being able to hold public events, there are still limits to antifa.
