  • The Real Way to Stop Big Tech From Harming Kids

    The Real Way to Stop Big Tech From Harming Kids
    Apr 3 2026
    Two major legal rulings against social media giants in the US are being heralded as the “Big Tobacco” moment for Big Tech. But will the courts actually be able to protect users from harm on these platforms? Here in Canada, attempts to regulate big tech companies have largely failed, but Carney’s government has signalled a renewed focus on addressing online harms. Will the government commit to meaningful legislation? Should we follow Australia’s example and ban social media for youth?

  • BONUS: A Fake News Podcast

    BONUS: A Fake News Podcast
    Apr 2 2026

    Here’s the thing — spotting fake news is harder than we like to admit. At Canadaland, we spend all day in the media. We’re supposed to know what’s real and what’s not.


    But when you want something to be true? You let it slide. You give it the benefit of the doubt.


    So we put it to our staff and you, the audience: tell us your fake news stories. The harmless ones, the ones that fooled you for a second, and the ones that didn’t stay harmless. The ones that actually caused panic — which, apparently, happens more than you’d think.



    Host: Sam Konnert

    Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher)

    Photo: Tony Wang (Note: The photo was generated by A.I. in the past, and Tony Wang edited it to include the text “FAKE NEWS”.)

  • Air Canada CEO’s French Exit

    Air Canada CEO’s French Exit
    Apr 1 2026
    Air Canada’s CEO retires early following backlash around his inability to speak French. An English-only statement from Michael Rousseau following the tragic accident at LaGuardia airport sparked a heated debate around bilingualism. Politicians expressed their disappointment, columnists and commenters online debated Air Canada’s language requirements. Even Elon Musk weighed in. Should we get serious about bilingualism or is this debate a sign that we’re not a serious country?
