In 1980 someone detonated a bomb outside a synagogue in Paris. Four people were killed. Suspicion immediately fell on French neo-nazi groups. But soon investigators turned their attention to groups from the Middle East. Then the case went cold. For decades.
Then, in 2008, the RCMP arrested an Ottawa-based sociology professor. What follows is a twisting tale of extradition, years of interrogation, and ultimately a trial and conviction in absentia. But today the person at the heart of the story, Hassan Diab, is free and living in Canada despite being convicted of the bombing in France.
The case is back in the headlines with Elon Musk and Pierre Poilievre, among others, asking why a convicted terrorist is a free man walking the streets of Canada. Canadaland has spent a year and a half digging into the story of Hassan Diab. Today we bring you a preview of our new series: The Copernic Affair.

Siri has a body. AI’s most familiar voice is not just a disembodied all-knowing benefactor of trivia, recipes, and everything else you can’t recall (or never knew) at any particular moment. According to Professor James Muldoon, author of Feeding the Machine: The Hidden Human Labour Powering AI, “... AI has a material body and exists only through new chips, servers and cables being manufactured and added to the machine. And just like a physical body, AI's material structure needs constant nourishment through electricity to power its operations and water to cool its servers every time we ask ChatGPT a question or use an internet search engine. The machine lives and breathes through this digital infrastructure.”
The physical body that makes up AI is not just sucking up water and power. AI is also built on the backs of real people. Not just the air-conditioned Silicon Valley engineers you might be imagining. AI relies on the work of hundreds of thousands of low-paid workers spread across the global south.

Yesterday Trudeau announced that he would prorogue parliament and resign as Prime Minister. Now, the Liberal Party is embarking on a journey to replace him.
He talked about “internal battles” and pressure from Donald Trump, and decided this was the best option. But is it too little too late? Who could possibly have hair good enough to replace him?
Logic reporter Laura Osman and Trudeau’s former head of economic policy Tyler Meredith join Sam to discuss what this means for Canada.

We don't like to think about sewage. And when it's all working fine, we don't have to. But if we don't get comfortable talking about shit, we could soon be headed for serious trouble if our infrastructure collapses. And given that recent reports say 30 percent of Canadian water and wastewater infrastructure has either reached or passed the end of its lifespan, that failure feels more like a when than an if.
Reporter Leora Shertzer digs into he problems of one small Ontario town where they’ve spent decades trying to sort their shit out.
But solving it will mean untangling a mess of political, environmental, engineering, and frankly, personal interests. Because shit is complicated.

We’re bringing you a special episode of a show we love!
From The Paul Wells Show, two acclaimed historians talk about the state of democracy and freedom in the world today.
In her latest book, Autocracy Inc., Anne Applebaum writes about a group of dictators who share a bond that’s not based on ideology, but on their ability to help each other gain wealth, power and impunity.
Yale historian Timothy Synder, author of the new book On Freedom, argues that freedom is more than the absence of oppression. He shares his vision for freedom in the wake of a recent trip to Ukraine.
The Paul Wells Show is produced by Antica Productions.

Since the blockbuster success of his musical “Hamilton,” Lin-Manuel Miranda has been busy: acting, directing, and composing for Disney projects, including the upcoming movie “Mufasa: The Lion King.”
But his new project is more personal, and a throwback in the best sense. Working with the playwright Eisa Davis, he has reimagined a movie from his childhood as a concept album. “The Warriors” is a cult classic released in 1979. “The Warriors are a gang from Coney Island, and they have to fight their way from the Bronx all the way back down to Coney Island in the course of the film,” Miranda tells David Remnick. The film reads as a nineteen-seventies period piece, but Miranda and Davis find a classical dimension to it. “The tale is an old tale. Sol Yurick, who wrote the novel the movie is based on, based it on the Anabasis, which is a soldier’s account of trying to get back home from war” in ancient Greece. “It’s this mythic story. . . . It doesn’t get more clear than that as a plotline.” To tell that story in song and rap, Miranda brought together a cast of legends including Lauryn Hill, Nas, Marc Anthony, members of the Wu-Tang Clan, and more. If releasing a concept album, meant to be listened to straight through, seems like a stretch for 2024 audiences, Miranda is unfazed. “What’s interesting about “Hamilton” is that no one I talked to thought it was a good idea when I was writing it. But I could see it. And it was the idea that wouldn’t leave me alone.”

Starting January 1st, the criminal interest rate on predatory lending will be lowered, meaning it should be safer to take out payday and installment loans. But these businesses have a tendency to skirt the law, adding unexpected fees and insurance rates to keep borrowers in the hole.
Sam welcomes Donna Borden to the show - an organizer with ACORN. She’s been a victim to these loans, and is now fighting against them. Will the crackdown work and really help lower people’s payments? How can we make short term loans a real option for people struggling, without the sky-high payments?

Yes, Canada bombed the Aurora Borealis.
But can you actually scatter that northernmost light with explosives? Why would you even try? And explosive boom aside, can you, on a cold clear quiet night, hear the northern lights? What is the sound of the Aurora Borealis?
Nicolas Lachapelle and Eloise Demers Pinard, trekked to Churchill Manitoba, and beyond, to try and answer these questions.
And that’s about as newsy and informational as things are gonna get.
Because as you will hear, today’s episode sounds a little bit different. It’s a bit more poetic than our regularly scheduled programming.
Or as our reporters will tell you, “…this is a story about that forgotten need to probe the sky and an epic journey through time and space on the edge of northern Canada.”
Happy Holidays.

Que retenir de 2024? Beaucoup de sujets lourds, et quelques moments plus légers, affirme Manal Drissi au micro d’Emilie Nicolas. Ensemble, Manal et Emilie reviennent sur des événements marquants de l’année et dressent, en filigrane, un portrait critique de nos médias. Au menu de cet épisode du temps des fêtes, les liens entre transphobie et misogynie qui ont traversé les discours portés sur Imane Khelif, cette boxeuse médaillée d’or aux JO de Paris ; les viols de Mazan et la montée du masculinisme ; la controverse Haroun Bouazzi et le rôle que jouent les éditorialistes dans le traitement de l’actualité ; et enfin la manière dont les médias couvrent la situation à Gaza. En deuxième partie d’émission, Manal Drissi revient sur son retrait des médias depuis la pandémie et nous rappelle l’importance de prendre notre temps.
What to remember from 2024? Lots of heavy subjects and a few lighter moments, says Manal Drissi to Emilie Nicolas. Together, Manal and Emilie look back on some of the significant events of the year and provide, implicitly, a critical portrait of our media. On the menu for this holiday season episode, the links between transphobia and misogyny which ran through the story of Imane Khelif, the young boxer who won gold at the Paris Olympics; the Mazan rapes and the rise of masculinism; the Haroun Bouazzi controversy and the role that editorialists play in covering current events; and finally the way in which the media cover the situation in Gaza. In the second part of the show, Manal Drissi talks about her withdrawal from the media since the pandemic and reminds us of the importance of taking our time and slow living.

This is part two of our mini series: Black Market Babies (part one, here).
It’s a family story that lay hidden for decades. Then the tech was born, the DNA came to light, and after the shock, the investigation began.
An underworld tale of the international baby smuggling ring that bought and sold hundreds of newborns out of Montreal in the 1950s.
A family story told by the families. One reporter whose own mother was bought and sold. And another whose own DNA tied her to the one of the alleged masterminds behind the black market baby trade.

Testifying in Parliament last week, Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown revealed how India affected his 2022 bid to lead the Conservative Party of Canada. But was he a victim of foreign interference, as reported by CBC/Radio-Canada, or a willing conduit for Indian interests? San Grewal of The Pointer joins to explain how (and why) CBC got spun.
Note: Jaskaran Sandhu did not reply to our request for comment in advance of publishing this episode.
UPDATE (12/11/24): after publication, Jaskaran Sandhu responded to Canadaland’s request for comment with the following: “I did not bring, place, plant, or spin this foreign interference story to the CBC. I wish I was that powerful. But it is kind of nice knowing those like San think I am.”
