The Debate: Trump’s presidential bid, bird birth control and thinner airplane seats.

The Debate with Mike Le Couteur

07-02-2024 • 40 mins

In this episode Giselle Kovary and Andrew Perez debate:

  • A U.S. appeals panel has ruled Donald Trump is not immune from prosecution in connection with the 2020 election interference case. Despite that, Trump remains the leading Republican nominee. Will this case affect Trump's bid for the White House?
  • Birth control for pigeons? A pilot project in Toronto aims to control the population by distributing contraceptives via their feed. It does not harm them, and costs $24,000 a year. Is this a fair use of taxpayer money?
  • Southwest Airlines unveiled a new cabin design including smaller and thinner seats. The airline says the seat offers 'ultimate comfort while maximizing seat width and overall support.' Online reaction has been negative. Are smaller and thinner seats a deal breaker?
