Paik's Takes: World Disorder, Political Athletes, Policing Protesters, and Canada's Middle Power Mirage

In the first ever edition of “Paik’s Takes,” Steve offers a few, well, takes and answers questions from viewers. Is this the most dangerous and uncertain time Steve has experienced in his more than four decades as a journalist? Should athletes make political statements? Is Canada still a meaningful ‘middle power,’ or is that just a comforting myth we tell ourselves? Then, in response to our first ever Redline Debate on the Freedom Convoy and the protests in Ottawa, Steve invites on a viewer who wrote in with his “take.” That viewer is Peter Sloly, former Ottawa Chief of Police.
