January 21, 2010: Proroguing & Apartheid

This week Robyn Penney spoke with Carleton political science professor Jonathan Molloy about how proroguing is likely to affect us and what concerned citizens can do to be heard and respected. They discussed the dynamics of citizen interest in Canadian politics, and how social networking tools and other forms of media can impact the decisions of our country’s political powers.

Then, Carol Hunsberger talked with Rachel Gurofsky from OPIRG at Carleton about a conference being held this weekend on global apartheid in its many forms, including struggles faces by Palestinians, immigrant workers, indigenous people, and more.

Finally, Robyn spoke with Carleton professor John Tunnicliffe’s fieldwork with Environmental Impact Assessments. His work includes some key factors of designing and implementing and EIA and how this lengthy process can have positive outcomes.
