I’ve watched a few focus groups recently and it’s shocking how consistently regular Canadians are parroting identical talking points dissing renewable energy, EVs and pretty much any replacement for burning fossil fuels. David talks with several experts about these “infodemics.”

And they’re “exploiting the last mile” — the distance between recognizing the problem and doing something about it.
