CBC News Interview: Magna Carta: From King John’s lechery and treachery to our liberty

19th century representation of King John accepting Magna Carta in 1215

My interview with CBC News discusses Magna Carta and the Magna Carta Canada touring exhibition, which begins at the Canadian Museum of History in Ottawa this week. I talked about a variety of topics related to King John and Magna Carta including why there has only been one English king named John and why there is no mention of Magna Carta in William Shakespeare’s play about King John.
