  • Summary

  • Ahmed and Keren dig deep into voting. Who gets to be counted, and who doesn’t? Why should we bother to participate in a system that doesn’t represent us? And amidst a federal election (advanced polls open now!) and the civic election immediately after, what are the criteria to which we evaluate our candidates?

    This episode was recorded on September 11, 2021.
