Unbought and Unbossed: Canadian Political News and Views Show #81 Aug. 6, 2008
Unbought and Unbossed is an independent voice dedicated to presenting and discussing issues of great social and political importance. In our present post-9/11 Canada, it is more vital than ever to critically examine our collective understanding of contemporary politics and the direction our elected servants are taking us. I strongly encourage listeners to question what you think you know about todays world events, and to analyse the motives behind our corporate media.
It is time to wake up and to educate, to learn to work together, and to find the courage to act on our love for one another. Our every freedom is at stake in this battle for truth and accountability, the prize is nothing less than the health of our collective human soul.
