In this week's show, we have a report from Scotiabank criticising the Trudeau government, a story about a man who refused to give blood when asked if he'd been pregnant in the past two years, and the story of a woman who refuses to donate blood after being asked if she's pregnant. We also hear from Caitlyn Jenner about the World Swimming Association's decision to ban transgenders from competing in the Olympics.
00:00:00.000We've got University of Ottawa professor Adiran. He's been in the news a fair amount in the last couple of years. He's got some interesting views, shall we say. He's did his best for international relations this weekend, Twitter shaming a United Airlines flight attendant.
00:00:20.040And then to carry on, he Twitter shamed anybody that's ever worked at McDonald's, which is probably a huge chunk of the Canadian population. So he's doing his best to improve relations there.
00:00:32.860We've got a Karen Selleck column on the George Jonas Freedom Awards that were given out last week to Tamara Litch in a ceremony in Toronto.
00:00:45.160She was obviously claimed to fame as being one of the blockade organizers.
00:00:50.760An interesting story from Scotiabank, one of the biggest banks in Canada, has written a report slamming Trudeau and his government's actions, basically saying they're making ordinary Canadians fight all this inflation on their backs.
00:01:06.740And it's interesting that such a prominent bank would give the Liberals a negative review.
00:01:11.680Courtesy of our social media guru, Rob, we've got a really cool video of a white grizzly bear spotted in Lake Louise.
00:01:25.080And we've got a longtime blood donor in Scotland who has basically had enough.
00:01:30.280He went and tried to donate blood and was asked whether or not he'd been pregnant in the last two years.
00:01:37.020So he said, all right, that's enough of that and refused to donate.
00:01:42.640Speaking of which, a story from our Arthur Greenup followed to the banning of transgendered athletes by the World Swimming Organization on the weekend.
00:01:54.000We've heard from perhaps the most famous transgendered person in the world, Caitlyn Jenner, and she's all for it.
00:02:00.360She says, good on the swimming people to ban transgendered because they get an unfair advantage.
00:02:07.320Great. Well, thanks for the check-in and looking forward to seeing those stories as they break.
