Gorilla Radio with Chris Cook, Deidre Nunan, Sean Tucker September 10, 2025

Welcome to Gorilla Radio, recorded September 7th and 10th, 2025

The Holocaust in Gaza continues, and nearly two years on Israel’s military continues targeting lawyers, engineers, journalists, professors, and all those people whose skills are required to operate a functioning society. Including nurses, ambulance drivers, medics, and those who brave precariously still-standing structures to dig out survivors of the ceaseless bombardment. And of course, Israel targets too the doctors who would treat the wounded.

Dr. Deidre Nunan is a Canadian orthopaedic surgeon who has spent years in humanitarian medicine, working in the field in Central and West Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean. She spent three weeks of her Summer in Nasser Hospital, Gaza, and is back home now telling Canadians from coast to coast to coast just what the cost of their nation’s continued support of Israel means for the people where its bombs land.

And; it’s not enough Canadian taxpayers are in league with the assassins of innocents in Palestine, they are too benefactors to an ongoing, home-grown propaganda and smear operation run for the benefit of the rogue state. Managing to squeeze three lies into a single sentence, HonestReporting Canada says it’s an, “independent grass-roots organization promoting fairness and accuracy in Canadian media coverage of Israel and the Middle East...” and so apparently deserves charitable status. That, says my second guest, is a self-understanding needing more scrutiny from the Canada Revenue Agency.

Dr. Sean Tucker is Associate Professor of Human Resource Management in the Centre for Management Development, Faculty of Business Administration at the University of Regina. His primary area of research is occupational health and safety, and he’s looked at the way HonestReporting Canada reports on Canadian journalists and considers it not only a demonstrable workplace hazard, but too an indefensible tax deduction.
