La guerre au Moyen Orient impacte les Canadiens d’origine arabe de diverses manières. Pour Rim Mohsen, québécoise d’origine libanaise, l’un des changements les plus personnels a été celui de réévaluer et repenser son identité et ses interactions avec les autres. Au micro d’Emilie Nicolas, elle se confie sur la difficulté de naviguer entre deux mondes qu’elle gardait jusque là séparés. La consultante et spécialiste en mobilisation sociale discute aussi de ce que signifie l’espoir alors que le monde brûle. L’espoir, dit-elle, passe par le collectif. Dans la deuxième partie de l’émission, Emilie et Rim se tournent vers la jeunesse pour faire sens de sa détresse et, peut-être, y apporter des solutions.


The war in the Middle East impacts Canadians of Arab origin in various ways. For Rim Mohsen, a Quebecer of Lebanese origin, one of the most personal changes was that of reassessing and rethinking her identity and her interactions with others. She confides in Emilie Nicolas about navigating between two worlds that she had until then kept separate. The consultant and social mobilization specialist also discusses what hope means as the world burns. Hope, she says, comes through the collective. In the second part of the show, Emilie and Rim turn to young people to make sense of their distress and, perhaps, provide solutions.

  • 1188. After Depression Meds, She Lost Her Sexuality

    34:38||Ep. 1188
    Emily Grey’s been living with a condition known as PSSD for six years now. PSSD can lead to the effective erasure of a person's sexual sensation and functioning.The SSRIs that seem to be at the heart of this condition are selective serotonin uptake inhibitors, a group of antidepressant drugs that have been around for decades. The latest numbers indicate that nearly 20% of Canadian women and 10% of Canadian men are now taking these drugs. It is generally known that potential side effects include a loss of libido. But what we're talking about today and what advocates like Emily have been saying for years is that the side effects can be very extreme. They might persist even after you stop taking SSRIs.We'll also be speaking with Dr. David Healy, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Cardiff in Wales. Dr. Healy has been involved in SSRI research for decades. He's the author of over a dozen books on psychopharmacology, including Let Them Eat Prozac, the Unhealthy Relationship Between The Pharmaceutical Industry and Depression.Also on our panel is Dr. Caroline Pukall professor of psychology at Queen's University whose research focuses on sexual wellbeing and includes sexual psychophysiology.Credits: Host: Jesse BrownCaleb Thompson (Audio Editor), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Fact checking by Julian AbrahamAdditional music by Audio NetworkFurther ReadingPSSD websiteDr. David HealyDr. Caroline PukallSponsors: oxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free! Article: Article is offering our listeners $50 off your first purchase of $100 or more.

  • 3. BONUS: Who Writes the Rules of News?

    07:10||Ep. 3
    “ When talking about immigration, you shouldn't use the word sweep because it implies that immigrants are something undesirable to be swept away. Notably, they don't say the same thing about homeless people.” -Alex SkopicProtestor or Protester? Anti-Vaxxer or vaccine hesitant? Riot or Uprising? Every word in the news carries weight, and every choice behind those words shapes how we see the world.Style guides dictate not just grammar and spelling, but power, perspective, and politics. The Associated Press Stylebook has long been considered the journalist’s bible, but who gets to write it? And whose voices get left out?Alex Skopic of Current Affairs is an outspoken critic of the AP style guide. He pulls back the curtain on how language is used, who decides what’s "neutral," and why seemingly small word choices can have massive consequences.Host: Sam KonnertCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Producer), Tony Wang (Executive Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Publisher)Guests: Alex SkopicPhoto: m01229Additional music by Audio NetworkThis show is available exclusively to Canadaland supporters.
