<\/a> Driving on an errand this morning, I managed to catch a few minutes of the CBC<\/a>‘s The Current<\/a> (with Anna Maria Tremonti). Her guests for today’s show<\/a> were Adam Daifallah, “a former member of the National Post’s editorial board” and “the co-author of ‘Rescuing Canada’s Right'”; also, Judy Rebick of Rabble.ca, who “holds the Sam Gindin Chair in Social Justice and Democracy at Ryerson University”; and Akaash Maharaj, “former National Policy Chairman for the Liberal Party of Canada.” See this page<\/a> for more details. The topic was “Why don’t we have vision?” and the conversation intrigued me. The panelists brought up so many aspects that parallel, as far as I could tell in my 10 minutes of listening, what’s happening with the transmogrification of power structures in the networked world — it was fascinating:<\/p>\n

Above the western entrance to the Peace Tower on Ottawa’s Parliament Hill, this proverb is inscribed: “Where there is no vision, the people shall perish.” And over the next hour on The Current we put that maxim to the test.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Anyway, I haven’t had time to listen to the show yet, but — aha! — The Current’s “current” shows are uploaded as ram files, and for my and other readers’ listening pleasure, I’m posting them here. There are three<\/strike> two sections in all:<\/p>\n

Section One<\/a><\/p>\n

Section Two<\/a><\/p>\n

This is for anyone interested in politics, or in Canada, or in Canadian politics. And who knows, I might find time to listen to it myself! At least I hope so…!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
