August 2 2025-Israel's Reaction to PM Mark Carney's Plans of Recognizing Palestinian State & This Entrepreneur launched a giant Canadian Brand while grappling with a Crack Addiction The government of Israel says that the Carney government’s pledge to recognize a Palestinian state is a betrayal that rewards Hamas terror and relies on the wrong negotiating partner. I talked with  Professor Gabriel Ben Dor, who teaches National Security and Political science at the University of Haifa.  And Entrepreneur and author Gordon Lownds describes it as an “unlikely addict’s memoir”. He tells the story of how he launched one of the most successful Canadian brands ever - Sleep Country Canada- while he was descending into a crack cocaine addiction. I talked to him about “Cracking Up.”
