Bruce Pardy returns to the Leaders on the Frontier Podcast to continue the discussion on Canada’s legal landscape with host David Leis. Bruce describes this landscape as “shifting ground”; ground that has shifted over time to such an extent, a new landscape has formed. Where once law provided society with a set of guardrails, it now serves as a blueprint for managing our lives, herding us in a direction rooted in a terrible worldview: we think the worst of each other. That blueprint is determined and implemented by the administrative state (which Covid-19 made painfully apparent). The pandemic, however, presented the latter with a perfect storm for justifying its existence; one that doesn’t guarantee us good outcomes but control. A state of control that the truckers’ protest in Ottawa revealed as one we should at least be questioning that also revealed what happens now when we do. Tune in for the full discussion.
