What I love most about Margaret Atwood is that she doesn’t suffer fools gladly. I’m glad she pointed out that people in economic strains aren’t going to be taking a trip to Ottawa nilly willy.
It’s true, I would rather be indoors listening to sage discussion with Margaret Atwood, then outdoors listening to wildlife’s convo’s. Very rare for me 💗👍
I tend to agree with the interviewer that she is an author that speaks to the public about matters that affect us individually and as a society , unlike most authours today. In some ways she reminds me of the late, great Gore Vidal!!
To avoid divisive climate policy, you don't tax beef. You tax extraction of fossil fuels. And emission of carbon, so that, if your business involves release of methane (from CAFO effluent ponds or from fugitive methane emissions caused by fracking), you pay the tax. But not a tax. A fee is something you pay to use something. Charge a fee, then share the proceeds to all people. We can raise the fees as high as need be to get the rate of reduction we want. Random polls can show what limit on extraction and emissions most people think is acceptable.
Talk about WW2 by a youngster ... Puleeez.. You had no NO footprints on the ground at that time. We don't have children signing mortgage contracts because their family wants a house. Cmon.
She sounds a little condescending? Artists are Peter Pan types? Is she Peter Pan like? I doubt it. As a person in "trouble' she has received more than a few accolades.
thts the benefit of being a sprighly old person ( i wanna be that ). be condescending, whilst being charming.....laughing & throwing jokes. She's entertaining, quircky & artsy ! i like her💙
this conversation falls apart in the middle. unfortunately Jesse is a bit of a sycophant (possibly because Atwood is terrifying) so his questions are so busy trying to justify themselves that one tends to nap. Atwood doesn't help...she lets him squirm. aside from this embarrassing aspect of the interaction...some ideas emerged because Jesse got brave and wouldn't shut up. people from civilizations that afford a middle class lots of freedom are making CAREERS out of gender issues. there are waaay more important issues the world needs to address. but Jesse obviously needs to talk about it. this is where the whole thing falls apart except that ATWOOD SUGGESTS GENDER ISSUES PEOPLE SHOULD JUST GROW UP.
Margaret Atwood is a Canadian Treasure 💗🇨🇦
Great interview. More Atwood please!
Please bring Margaret Atwood back. I would love to hear her analysis after the 2024 Trump win. I am devastated.
I second this. And same 😢
Both sides were bad you see and independents had to make a choice 🙄
'Power rests with the open minded '. Excellent
She is so damn BRILLIANT!
Yeah right 😂😂😂

This is a brilliant insight? I think not.
It is considering how many idiots, including the host of this podcast suggest the economic destitute we’re making some kind of movement in Ottawa.
@@carolynrobe5957 Clearly it is, seeing how many idiots, including the host of this podcast seem to think so.
@@carolynrobe5957 jealousy is a painful place to be.
She knows exactly what she's writing and where we're headed.
You opened M.A. up like a spring blossom! Very impressive
I'm only a minute in but I like this interviewer!
Margaret Arwood....Wise Woman
Margaret Atwood used to laugh a lot. She laughs a lot more now. Such a wonderful sense of humour.
Loved all of this

Thank you Margaret for being there

The option in “picking a side” is we can change our minds and choose something different At Any Point In Time 😊

No one can afford to take off work to travel around and protest. Voting is more feasible.

She handles it well, though.
Remain in yer seat, dude, and listen ! ... (÷

"He looks like Orson Welles." Don't mess with Atwood.
Omg isn’t he cute, Margaret
Dude stop talking, ask her a question and shut up! I came here to hear Margaret's opinions!

I hate to tell ya this Margaret, but we voted him again and we'd do it a third time if we could.
Thank God we only have to tolerate Rump for 4 years. Hopefully, the damage he does will be reversible.
