🎙 Welcome to Shane Hewitt & the Nightshift 🎙

Shane Hewitt is joined by journalist, writer and broadcaster Matt Gurney and they discuss the gullibility of Canadians and their government's tendency to make empty promises. They cite examples of broken promises regarding housing, gun control, and infrastructure, highlighting the lack of accountability and focus on "inputs" (promises and pledges) rather than "outputs" (results). The conversation expands to include broader societal issues, such as the deteriorating state of infrastructure across Canada (roads, hospitals, etc.), comparing the situation to personal financial struggles where individuals struggle to maintain existing assets and cannot afford new ones. The discussion concludes with anecdotes illustrating the inefficiency and shortsightedness of government actions, using the example of a homeowner whose protective landscaping was removed before promised safety improvements were implemented, resulting in further damage. The overall tone is critical of Canadian political culture and its lack of focus on delivering on promises. More from Matt Gurney: https://www.readtheline.ca/
