Peter Downie, long-time broadcaster and journalist for both television and radio for the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) speaks with Northeast Valley News about the Trump vs Canada rhetoric, the recent Canadian election results, growing patriotism across Canada, the resolve against Trumpism, why long-time Canadian homeowners are selling their American vacation homes (in Scottsdale Az.) led only by Florida, the pervasive conspiracy theory movement and misinformation from the alt-right extremism threatening Canada and other nations.
Mr. Downie also talks a little bit of hockey and we give a very necessary shout out (the host adores the band) for…The Tragically Hip, a band that reached mass popularity in Canada for more than three decades and is often called “Canada’s Band”
