The Best of Roy Green, Mar 10: Chris Sankey, former Councillor at Lax Kw'alaams First Nation challenges NDP gas bill. - Ujjal Dosanjh, formor BC Premier, Fed parties here for Canadians, or themselves? - Lawyer Ari Golkind, parents spanking children.

Get caught up on the year so far with this weekend's encore presentation of the Roy Green Show!
Today's best of the best:

NDP MP Charlie Angus private members Bill 372 (which Angus compares to legislative efforts of the 1990's to punish the tobacco industry for wilfull and incorrect advertising), would result in positive advertising/messaging by oil and natural gas producers and their supporters could result in massive fines and possible imprisonment. Note: Angus did not reply to an invitation to appear on this program)
Also:
Joe Biden recently placed a temporary halt on issuing U.S. liquid natural gas export licences. Are many (most) First Nations in Canada supportive of encouraging Canada to engage in export of LNG?  
Guest: Chris Sankey. Former elected councillor at Lax Kw'alaams first nation, businessman, op ed writer and senior Fellow at the MacDonald-Laurier Institute. 
Originally Aired Feb 10, 2024.

Is Canada veering (stumbling) toward a late 2024 federal election of our own? Are federal political parties fairly focusing on the issues driving Canadian views and concerns, or are the parties in it for their own success? We ask a former premier and federal minister for his thoughts. As well, why are more younger Canadians than younger Ameicans and younger Canadian women supporting Donald Trump?
Guest: Ujjal Dosanjh. Fmr British Columbia premier and former Liberal federal Minister of Health. 
Originally Aired Jan 28, 2024.

This was a heaveily debated issue 30+ years ago and it's back. NDP sponsored children's rights legislation, Bill 273, would ban spanking of children at home or using force on children at school by supervisory adults (teachers) received support for a second reading in parliament by a 208-115 vote. Section 43 of the Criminal Code (introduced in 1892) and most recently amended by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2004, permits parents to spank judiciously, not in anger and with age consideration of children. The Canadian Teachers Federation opposes the NDP bill/ What about parents? And how does a prominent criminal lawyer view the proposed legislation? (It has been argued parents forcing a child into a children's car seat might run afoul of no corporal punishment legislation.)
Guest: Ari Goldkind. Criminal lawyer and media commentator.
