This week, homes for everyone! Well, in theory that is what the federal government is proposing but is realistic and what’s the alternative. In BC drug decriminalization and the safe supply system are creating a whack-a-mole situation for police and local residents and debate is heating up politically in Victoria of their efficacy. But you know … It’s an election year, everyone. And finally, app-gate in Ottawa, are the ArriveCan hearings more political theatre or a real issue that needs to be resolved.

This week, just when you think it is safe to go outside in Yaletown, the City of Vancouver makes “safe injection” sites mobile. The apocalyptical ice cream truck is coming to a neighbourhood near you. Meanwhile, police boards get an overhaul across BC, but you can’t help but think this is really meant to control what is going on in Surrey policing fiasco and put a stop to their mayor controlling the agenda.

UnSpun with Jody Vance and George Affleck — Episode 245

Welcome to UnSpun - your current events podcast and YouTube show.  Every week, Jody Vance and George Affleck unspin the latest news in local, provincial, and federal politics, and much more.  This week, sigh, Vancouver Park Board. Jody and George are taking it on the "twitter" chin for being open about their opinions on the competence and quality of Vancouver’s parks. Support for an idea does not necessarily mean support for a person or party. But tell the angry park board supporters that.  A recent panel with three prominent Lower Mainland mayors was both enlightening and frustrating. Why: hate/love for developers, the builders of our cities? And the history of war. There are lessons to be learned. A lot of lessons. Kids, tune in.

Welcome to UnSpun - your current events podcast and YouTube show. Every week, Jody Vance and George Affleck unspin the latest news in local, provincial, and federal politics, and much more.  This week, big cuts at a major media outlet have Jody and George asking what the future of radio, tv and all other journalistic mediums is, and is there a place once again for the small independent operator? But while we wait for that, backroom political shenanigans in Surrey, Vancouver, and Victoria show us that there are cracks in the dominant, ruling parties that will have an impact on whether or not they can keep it all together. This could prove particularly challenging for Premier David Eby with an election looming. And finally, Trump … we’ll leave that there. All that and more on UnSpun with Jody Vance and George Affleck
