📚🇨🇦 This week’s episode dives into two surprising wins in the world of politics—one at home, and one just across the border. In Georgia, librarians scored a significant victory as recent legislation weakening public and academic libraries was stalled or struck down. We’ll discuss how advocacy, public pressure, and strategic messaging helped defend free access to information in the Peach State.
Meanwhile, Canada’s Prime Minister made a bold economic move that caught the Trump team off guard. With a strategic media blitz and well-placed billboards, Trudeau framed Trump’s revived tariff policy as an economic threat not just to Canada but also to American consumers.
We’ll explore how Canada flipped the script and why it’s resonating on both sides of the border.
🎙️ Join us as we unpack:
How Georgia librarians outmaneuvered censorship efforts,
What this means for library funding and access nationwide,
How Canada turned Trump’s trade war into a political liability,
Why smart messaging still matters in 2025
