Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Will we get to be part of Mark Carney's "new world order?" Does his resemblance to Mr. Burns from The Simpsons make this remark seem more sinister? We'll talk about that, more NDP idiocy, some great feedback from last week, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com While Canada truly has suffered a lost Liberal decade, there are glimmers of hope on the horizon. We say goodbye to Chrystia Freeland, hear David Eby had to change course, Calgary is underwater again, the Woke Right? And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com As cringe as it is to title our show with Carney-speak, Lewis wraps today's episode with why this title might be accurate. We have good news from Saskatchewan, scary news from PEI, advice for Conservatives nationally, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com We run through our biggest stories, surprises, and letdowns of the year that was, and share our thoughts on the year ahead. Enjoy!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Tristin Hopper comes back to chat about his work on Aboriginal Title claims, the guys talk about the direction Canada is headed, and wrap up offering solutions to fix Canada! Enjoy the conversation!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Other politics shows may have wound down for the holidays, but we'll keep bringing you the biggest stories in Canadian politics. It would seem that Pablo Rodriquez won't get his chance to become Quebec's next Premier, but his city of Montreal may get high speed rail ... years down the road. Or, maybe Alberta will get a west coast pipeline ... but not through BC. Can Doug Ford pull off turning Niagara Falls into "Las Vegas North?" And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Back by popular demand, our favourite tax fighter and government watchdog, Kris Sims, the Alberta Director with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation stops in to talk about this year's CTF Naughty and Nice list, government waste of your tax dollars, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Whoever said that Canadian politics is boring sure hasn't been paying attention. What should have been a quiet week of closing out legislative business before the Christmas break has been anything but quiet. The Liberals gained one more Conservative defection, the potential green New Democratic Party, the implosion in BC, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com It turns out that "Coastal First Nations" doesn't mean what we thought. It also seems that the BC Conservatives are in search of a new leader, hopefully one that can calm the turmoil that currently exists in the party. Has Carney been the man for this moment? And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com The much-anticipated Memorandum of Understanding between Alberta and Ottawa was unveiled, but was it worth the hype? Will Canada offer amnesty to nearly half a million people that we know little to nothing about? We'll outline how far Canada has fallen, is Carney the one to bring us back? And more!
Dallas Brodie, Leader of the OneBC Party, joins the show to break down some of the insanity that is British Columbia.
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Tony is back from Grey Cup, and what a game it was! The City of Winnipeg put on a very good festival. And upon returning to politics, Danielle Smith is making change, the "State" of Quebec? A Wedding in the Narco-state, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Pierre stepped in front of the microphone (at last) to address the media suggestions that his party is in crisis, and made it clear that it is not. The Grey Cup deadline for the next "nation-building" project list is out, and it is even more under-whelming than the last list. Are you ready for a civil-servant defence force? And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com While the Carney budget certainly did not deliver any generational transformation, Canada could be in for some serious changes regardless. The huge deficit aside, we touch on that budget, the drama that deliberately overshadowed the budget, and what comes next, Lewis makes a bold prediction about his British Columbia homeland, and more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Tony posted on his X account upon Mark Carney's election victory asking him to manage Canada's decline gently. Not only has the Prime Minister ignored that request, he appears to be telling Canadians "hold my beer" as our standard of living drops with the PM's inability to build anything or negotiate any new trade deals. Are we headed for a Christmas election? Will Alberta still be in Canada by then? Does Aboriginal Land Title include Ottawa? What is Duck Lake, SK? And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com While Pierre Poilievre might not be taking all of our advice on how to present himself to Canadians, his latest video release show that at least he remembers what works for him. Perhaps a little bad press has given him a dose of reality. Let's hope BC Conservative Leader John Rustad takes note. Are you one of the lucky 17% of callers to the CRA that gets good advice? Alberta is about to revolutionize health care, and more!
Dr. Sylvain Charlebois joins the discussion to talk Temporary Foreign Workers, tariffs, autos, and much more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com We can't stress enough that Canada doesn't take serious issues seriously. The Carney's public safety announcements sound wonderful, but still don't remove any of the roadblocks faced by judges RE; bail, sentencing. Cyber security shows a weakness at the Kelowna Airport (and others,) and few outlets are talking about it (at least not yet.) Could Newfoundland be starting a blue wave? And more!
Renaud joins the show again to discuss the absurd number of Canadians who leave Emergency Rooms every year without being seen, ways to improve the health care system, ways that we pay for the system, and government debt. Someone's favourite Premier might even get some props along the way. And more!
Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Recorded live today! Tony is back from his quick trip to Texas, with a fun fact for all y'all, and back into the political firestorm emitted by Ottawa. From legislation to attack you directly, to Danielle Smith on the offensive, Carney on the defensive, Canada's deficit could be how high? And more!

All politicians w/ connections to the World Economic Forum need 2b removed from office. Including Pierre Poilievre, who someone is trying 2 protect by scrubbing his association 2 the WEF off of the internet. U'll have 2 use the Wayback Machine 2 see what they scrubbed & when it was removed. #cdnpoli or is it #cndpoli
