Media and the Conservatives are fighting in the car again; more cash for journalism will fix it! And Montreal on the verge of revolt.

We'll start by wishing our readers a happy weekend, and pivot from that right to a brief comment on the war in the Middle East. Over the last few days, there has been a gradual release of some of the hostages seized from Israel during the Hamas attack. Israel is releasing prisoners in exchange, and a truce is — for now — holding. Some foreign nationals seized by Hamas have also been released. We don't have any real commentary here, beyond being delighted that these hostages are being let go. Line editor Gurney recently visited a makeshift vigil not far from his Toronto home where eight of the abducted children were named on a large "milk carton" exhibit. Of those eight, four are now home with their families (or what's left of their families). May the other four soon be home as well.

Our latest video is up; we hope you enjoy it.

The podcast version is live on our main page here, and you can see this post for links to all the major podcasting apps (Spotify, Apple, etc). A very kind reader recently asked us which app is best for our purposes, and honestly, they're all the same. Listening to our main site, catching it on YouTube, or streaming it via any of the apps all work for us. Pick whichever one you like and sign up for it! Leave us a review, like us, share us, etc. We can see every week that our metrics are slowly growing, and that's because we are winning the algorithms with your help. So thank you, and please keep it up. It makes a difference — we can see it.
