Wet Hot Chocolate Milk Summer

Published: July 31, 2019, 8:16 p.m.

On a hazy mid-summer episode of Unpacking the News things turn humid as host Andre Goulet, educator/musician Adam Hickey and Time Out Montreal editor JP Karwacki discuss Andrew Scheer's politicization of national food nutrition policy, Justin Trudeau's (accidental?) condescension towards Indigenous communities at a recent fundraiser and the sublimely theoretical Green Party support for a non-existent Conservative climate plan.

Plus, exploring the latest polls, lamenting the absence of progressive housing policy in Canadian political discourse and why the New York Times is 100% correct in labeling Jagmeet Singh a "historical contender for Canada's top political job".
