Y WE TRAVEL
In this new series, accomplished writers delve into the deeper meaning of our journeys—beyond where and how, to the fundamental question of why. Presented by Toronto Pearson Airport, the Canadian Airports Council, and The Walrus Lab.
In this episode, host Nathan Whitlock is joined by author and journalist Bob McDonald, host of CBC Radio’s Quirks and Quarks. He is a regular science commentator on the CBC News Network, a science correspondent for The National, and the author of multiple books, including his recent memoir Just Say Yes. Bob and Nathan talk about the importance of promoting real science amid the proliferation of misinformation and conspiracy theories, about his initial reluctance to include the story of his childhood sexual abuse in his memoir (but why he is proud that he did), and about his work‐in‐progress, a book for kids that focuses on—surprise!—science.
Canadian Ranger Allen Pogotak shares his Arctic experiences and calls for greater focus on its defense and exploration. Former Foreign Minister Lloyd Axworthy examines Canada’s role in NATO, past contributions, and future challenges in a changing global landscape.
Canada’s political landscape is becoming increasingly divided, making it harder than ever to navigate public discourse productively. Investigative journalist and author Justin Ling highlights three of the major factors intensifying polarization in Canada—and shares what everyday citizens can do to push back against it. Ling spoke at The Walrus Talks at Home: Polarization on December 4, 2024.
