Episode 419 - Tone Deaf Government
2026/10/11
Email us at [email protected] Not that this is a new thing, but governments really need to learn to listen to the people who elect them. Not that he's an elected official, but Chris Alexander could be paving the way to send Chairman Chow out of office, David Eby continues to prove that he's not ready for the election that he called, and that thing about Canada's economy creating more jobs than the US? Um, yeah. And more!
Episode 418 - Is Carney's Clown Car Crashing?
2026/10/04
Email us at [email protected] At some point in time, a government actually has to show results instead of announcements. We are happy to give credit to PM Carney for buying assets like planes, etc, but let's see some "nation-building projects." Maybe some jobs in Ontario would be helpful, instead of more layoffs. We'll point out the lack of a "Trump bump" in BC and Quebec, how trying to bribe Alberta may not have the desired effect, and more!
Episode 417 - The Battle of BC Begins!
2026/09/27
Email us at [email protected] BC Premier David Eby, now BC NDP Leader David Eby, has decided to call an election barely two years into his current mandate, and he's not exactly off to the best start. Going a ways east, Pierre Poilievre didn't start an Ontario by-election the best way either, and Mark Carney started the House of Commons with a big, beautiful bill. We wrap up with exciting CFL news, and more!
Episode 416 - Canada's Identity Crisis
2026/09/20
Email us at [email protected] What a time to be a political actor in Canada! Our Prime Minister is more enamoured with Europe than his own country, he can't seem to get anyone to invest in Canada, yet his opposition seems to view this to be the time to crumble into disarray (hello, Western Canada.) At least on this show, we'll always stand up for Canada!
Episode 415 - Let's get it together!
2026/09/13
Email us at [email protected] All slogans aside, Canada really needs to get its collective sxxx together. Pierre Poilievre visited New York City to talk to business media, and made the case for Canada well, then there's a BC problem that we wrap the show up with. While the Carney works to bring us closer to Europe, his government is working on which media we're allowed to trust. A Cabinet Retreat, a big investment summit, and more!
Episode 414 - Is Canada still a country?
2026/09/06
Email us at [email protected] It's sad that we have to ask that question, but this is where we're at. Our Prime Minister is more enamoured with Europe than Canada, and is more upset about American memes than about trade uncertainty with the United States (even though it helps his polling numbers.) Why are we paying triple for VIA Rail cars? Why do our politicians have to be our spokespeople to investors? Would Alberta really be better off as a 51st State of the US? And more!
Episode 413 - Renaud Brossard, MEI
2026/09/03
Email us at [email protected] Renaud stops in to share some insights on trade, tariffs, sovereign wealth funds, the Canada Investment Summit (or whatever Carney is calling it,) and an event that the MEI is partnering in this fall! Check that out at www.prescriptions-for-health-reform.com Enjoy the conversation!
Episode 412 - Time to get it together
2026/08/30
Email us at [email protected] The more we hear about the deal that fell apart, the more it appears that it fell apart on purpose. We can take comfort knowing that The Chinese Communist Party approves of PM Carney's actions on this. Of course we have the receipts. Doug Ford hates Lake America, but loves his polling numbers, a meltdown in BC, the prairies are "un-Canadian," and more!
Episode 411 - The Game is Afoot
2026/08/23
Email us at [email protected] It likely comes as no surprise that Canada and the US were unable to reach a trade deal, especially given that our "master negotiator" couldn't trouble himself to be in the Western Hemisphere in the late stages of talks. Lewis shares a theory on that to wrap up the show. We will discuss the deal that wasn't, why the feds want to punish Alberta (not about energy,) homeless rights on the east coast, and more!
Episode 440 - Canada on the edge
2026/08/16
Email us at [email protected] We'll start with an important update from Summerland, BC that you won't hear in the mainstream press. And, while this situation affects our country, there is a certain trade negotiation, and where is our leader? On vacation. Is another new political movement on the horizon? Some hope in the culture wars, and more!
Episode 439 - Values
2026/08/09
Email us at [email protected] Canadian values, to be clear. Canadian values. We start the show a little differently, with a Summerland fire update from Lewis, who's right in the thick of it. Stay tuned for an update on trade talks with the US, hate crimes online, is there a culture war in Canada? And more!
Episode 438 - The Conservative Pushback
2026/08/02
Email us at [email protected] We won't go so far as to say that conservatives in Canada are winning, but there are signs that they may have realized that it's time to get their ... stuff ... together. Michelle Rempel-Garner opines on a path forward, Danielle Smith brings common sense to equalization, is the Carney-Ford bromance over? More hits to the forestry industry, and more!
Episode 437 - Trucking in Canada - are our roads safe?
2026/07/29
Email us at [email protected] We are joined by Bill from Ontario, who has spent over 30 years in the trucking industry, to discuss not only what's wrong with the business, but how to make it right. Enjoy the conversation!
Episode 436 - Canadian Values
2026/07/26
Email us at [email protected] Where there's smoke, there's fire, and by fire we mean tariff threats. These, of course, became topics raised at the Council of the Federation meetings, where the reactions of various Premiers were quite different from others. Are Canadian values still Canadian? And more!
Episode 435 - Elbows ... where, exactly?
2026/07/19
Email us at [email protected] So, Mark Carney told us all that he was the one who could best stand up President Trump and secure the best deal for Canada RE: the United States. You might not like what we have to tell you on that front. Danielle Smith triggers the left in Alberta over breakfast, Ontario burns, and more!
