Mark Carney's expenses are blowing up — $772K on in-flight catering and accommodations in just one year? $230K on a single Vatican trip with his wife and daughter? $472K on six trips since being elected? Taxpayers are furious, and rightly so.But here's the real question: Is Carney the only one living large on our dime... or is this just HOW OTTAWA WORKS?We dig into the numbers, the perks, the automatic April 1 raises (projected 4.2% this year), the $350K–$400K office budgets, 64 free flight points for family (business class), secondary residence allowances that let MPs build equity on our backs, daily per diems, hospitality budgets, and pensions indexed to inflation.Total taxpayer burden per backbench MP? Easily over $700,000 a year.Does that make sense to you?Here's my fix: Pay MPs the average Canadian salary (~$68,000) and let their riding decide any bonus by referendum. They work for us — let us vote on whether they deserve extra.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

Is a Spring Snap Election already being set in motion? Tonight on The Political Orphans, we’re following the paper trail. With reports surfacing that Elections Canada has placed massive orders for 700,000 poll tally sheets and balloting supplies, the rumors of a spring vote are moving from "conspiracy" to "calculation." Is the secret meeting between Mark Carney and Doug Ford the final piece of the puzzle?Is the legacy media ignoring: Mark Carney’s name appearing 69 times in the newly released Epstein files. Is the talk of a snap election just a convenient smoke screen to bury a bombshell report?Plus: * The War on X: Why are Liberal MPs and CBC "poster boys" suddenly abandoning Elon Musk’s platform? Is Canada preparing for a total ban on X before the next writ drops?Symbolism & Subversion: We analyze the disturbing imagery surfacing from recent global ceremonies—is it a direct attack on Canadian values and faith?🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

While the headlines celebrate the "pause" of the Federal EV Mandate, the truth is much darker. The 2035 zero-emissions goal is still on the books, and the $100 Trillion+ Energy Transition is moving forward full steam ahead. We follow the money from the UN to the WEF and straight into the pockets of the corporate giants like Brookfield.Poilievre meets with Mark Carney, while principled voices like Jamil Jivani head to the U.S. Finally, we are joined by Mia Hughes, author of the WPATH Files and Director of Genspect Canada, to discuss a massive failure within the Conservative Party. We’re dissecting the CPC Motion A-16-1282 and why the party seems to be backing down on protecting children to save their media optics.If you’re tired of the "Woke Left" and the "Controlled Right," join Nico Lagan and Rob Ambrose as we dissect the news from the perspective of the Political Orphan.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

I really didn't want to speak about this but it seems that the story would go away so here we are. I want to know what you guys think: should the ''Conservative'' content creators sue the PPC for the comments they made? Accusing them of making is easy to identify who targets their kids? Later in the show: We are joined by lawyer and legal commentator Ian Runkle to break down the the Liberal gun grab.

Plus, at 7:30 PM, Rachel Parker joins us to discuss her BAN from the Conservative Convention.The "Science is Settled," and apparently, your opinion as a parent no longer matters. Today at the Canadian Heritage committee, advocates for the Online Harms Act delivered a chilling message: stop studying, stop debating, and start regulating. We are breaking down the testimony from Sara Austin and Carol Todd as they demand the government fast-track Bill C-63. Is this about safety, or is it a move to strip responsibility from the parent and hand it to a government bureaucracy?At 7:30 PM EST: Independent journalist Rachel Parker joins the show to expose the gatekeeping inside the "Common Sense" movement. Rachel was officially BANNED from the Conservative National Convention in Calgary. We’ll discuss why the CPC is terrified of independent media, the reality behind Poilievre’s 87% support, and why the push for Alberta Separation is reaching a breaking point.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and SHARE to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

Poilievre & Carney join forces on Bill C-19. Conservatives fast-track $12.4B Liberal Grocery Benefit while Health Canada seals vaccine injury records for 15 years. Marty Up North joins.The "Opposition" just became the assistant. Today, Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives unanimously approved a motion to fast-track Bill C-19—Mark Carney’s $12.4 Billion "Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit." While the PBO confirms this "Band-Aid" costs $700 million more than promised, the CPC is helping push the money printer into overdrive. Is there a real difference between the two parties, or are we all just Political Orphans?Plus, a massive transparency scandal: Health Canada has officially moved to seal vaccine injury records for 15 years. Why the secrecy now? We connect the dots to the Sean Hartman lawsuit and Pfizer’s explosive defense.Finally, Marty Up North joins the show to discuss the Conservative Convention, Poilievre’s 87.4% support, and the cold hard math of Alberta Separation. If the West leaves, the "Conservative" party as we know it is dead.

Canada’s immigration system has collapsed. With 2 million undocumented people projected by mid-2026 and a 457,000+ deportation backlog, the "honor system" is failing. Is it time for a Canadian ICE agency?Tonight on Political Orphans, we’re exposing the numbers the mainstream media won't touch. We break down the "Permit Cliff"—the over 1.9 million visas expiring this year with no digital exit-tracking to ensure people actually leave.On tonight’s broadcast:• The 2 Million Ghost Population: Why record-low permanent residency targets (380,000) are creating a massive, untraceable underground class in 2026.• The Marc Miller Letter: I reveal the 7-page response from the Minister where he admits the government is prioritizing "disinformation resilience" over border enforcement. Does the government view independent journalists as the problem?• Guest: Melanie Bennett (Juno News): At 7:30 PM, investigative journalist Melanie Bennett joins us to discuss her latest articles on the Anti-ICE protests in Canada. Why are Canadian politicians protecting the system while attacking corporate ties to enforcement?The "Political Orphans" of this country are tired of the Kabuki theater.

Pierre Poilievre flies economy, but is it a photo op? We expose Poilievre’s $307,700 salary, $8.8M spending, and the $1,875 Conservative Convention Calgary 2026 tickets. Is Pierre Poilievre really a "Man of the People," or is the economy class photo just a massive PR stunt? Tonight on The Political Orphans, we go beyond the viral images to look at the hard receipts. We break down the numbers the mainstream media won’t: The Salary Gap: How Poilievre’s $307,700 income compares to the average Canadian worker.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just torched Prime Minister Mark Carney on CNBC: "Do what's best for the Canadian people, not your own virtue signaling." Fresh off Davos posturing, Carney gets schooled ahead of brutal USMCA talks. Meanwhile, starting TODAY (Jan 26, 2026), federal guidelines allow permanent auto-deletion of chat messages after 15 days – and emails after 30. Transparency? More like a cover-up. We break it down, play the clips, and expose the elite games.

Carney flat-out denies U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's claim he walked back his Davos comments during an Oval Office call. Classic deflection.Meanwhile, Conservative MPs cheer Bill C-9 being "on hold" for bail reform priority. So WHAT? This delay means nothing. Bill C-9 would still define "hatred" in the Criminal Code as an emotion involving "detestation or vilification stronger than disdain or dislike." The Code has no hate definition now—and that's how it should stay. We don't need Canada turning into the UK, arresting 13,000+ people yearly for social media posts. This threatens religious freedoms (especially Christians) and free speech for everyone. Conservatives need to stop high-fiving and fight to scrap C-9 entirely.Plus: Live update from Jason Lavigne on the Alberta independence tour.Watch if you're done with half-measures.

Prime Minister Mark Carney just announced the new Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit (a 25% boost to the former GST Credit for 5 years starting July 2026, plus a one-time 50% top-up this year), enhanced GST rebates, and made the National School Food Program permanent. But is this real relief for struggling Canadians—or just more government spending while taxes crush us?In tonight's episode, Nico Lagan and Rob break down Carney's full speech from January 26, 2026: fact-checking claims on 190k new jobs (how many part-time/government?), carbon tax "cuts" saving 18¢/L on gas (despite past denials), middle-class tax savings ($840/family? or misleading math?), first-time home buyer relief (up to $50k—what are the catches?), childcare/cell fees drops, and more. We ask the tough questions: Are these programs necessary, or bandaids for policy failures?Then, at 7:30 PM ET, we bring in The Food Professor (Sylvain Charlebois) for a deep dive on food inflation: Why is Canada the "food inflation capital" of the G7 (6.2% YoY in Dec 2025 vs. much lower elsewhere)? Root causes, costs to families over recent years, and whether Carney's "solutions" actually fix anything—or if high taxes (42.3% of income per Fraser Institute, Tax Freedom Day mid-June) are the real problems.We work until mid-June just to pay the government.

Excluding gun suicides: nearly 60× more from MAiD than gun homicides (287).Yet Liberals push the gun grab on law-abiding owners instead of fixing mental health/suicide issues.Special Guest: Tracey Wilson (CCFR VP Public Relations) – amnesty deadline, police revolt, compliance, education gaps, and the “It’s Raining Guns” contest.Got breaking news or guest suggestions?

Carney claps back at Trump’s “Canada lives because of the US” dig—but is he standing up for Canada or cozying up to China?

Trump just hit back hard at Mark Carney’s WEF speech: "Remember that, Mark!" — calling out green agenda hypocrisy, rigged elections, weak borders, and more.

Trump just dropped a viral AI map absorbing Canada, Greenland & Venezuela into the U.S.—pure troll or real threat? Hours later, Mark Carney at Davos declares the “old world order” dead and calls for middle powers to resist great-power coercion (read: America under Trump).

Canada caught between Trump’s memes and WEF lectures—time to fight back locally. Watch now. Share widely.

We break down the leaked emails and the October 30th deadline you need to know about.But the betrayal doesn't stop there. While the "Political Orphans" of Canada look for leadership, Pierre Poilievre has made a shocking move regarding Greenland and NATO—one that aligns him directly with Mark Carney and the globalist agenda.

The "New World Order" is being redrawn this weekend. As Donald Trump prepares to lead the largest U.S. delegation in history to the WEF in Davos, he has issued a final warning to NATO: Support the Greenland acquisition or face 25% tariffs. Meanwhile, Canadian PM Mark Carney is aligning with Beijing, calling China a "more reliable partner" than the USA. Is NATO about to dissolve?

During the election debates, Mark Carney called China our “BIGGEST security threat.” Today, he is in Beijing signing 8 new MOUs to build a “New World Order.”While Canadians are forced to pay carbon taxes and “Net Zero” mandates to save the planet, Carney just signed an Energy Pact to help China—the world’s biggest polluter—develop their own oil and gas resources. Make that make sense.In this episode of The Political Orphans:• The 8 MOUs: We break down the agreements on everything from "Energy Cooperation" to "Transnational Crime."• The Marc Miller Memo: A leaked memo says "social cohesion" is failing.

While Donald Trump sends a clear message that the U.S. doesn’t "need" what Canada is producing, Mark Carney isn’t in Washington trying to save our $950 billion-a-year trade relationship. He’s in China.Tonight on The Political Orphans, we’re following the money. Why is the PM chasing a 5% market in Beijing while our 75% partner is walking away?
