A Conversation on Scientific Censorship in Canada
This episode should serve as real-time news of the horrific situation unfolding in Canada. Dr. Patrick Phillips joins us as the spokesperson for the group behind the Declaration of Canadian Physicians for Science and Truth, a petition signed by thousands of practicing medical professionals and concerned citizens in Canada.

The first deal was terrible; Iran lied on its nuclear history, which predicated the agreement, made inspections difficult, and obtained know-how and materials which clearly belied their intentions. Why expect any better now? A new deal is nothing less than nuclear madness.
