(Short Cuts) Ukraines Night Train to the Front Lines
As we cross the one-year anniversary of Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, former Canadaland producer Sarah Lawrynuik returns to Short Cuts to talk with Jonathan about why she became a freelance war correspondent, taking night trains to the front lines.
They also look at China\u2019s reported interference in Canada\u2019s elections & why our institutions tend to throw up their hands the moment they encounter even slightly sophisticated malfeasance.
