For those of you who are familiar with the classic movie, you'll get that we will cover topics on the same time line but through different perspectives, as everything intertwines this week. Chrystia Freeland drops a resignation instead of a Fall Economic Statement, Justin Trudeau drops a new Cabinet, not including Mark Carney, Pierre Poilievre drops a dare to the Governor General, Jagmeet Singh drops some tough words, and we will actually bring you the Fall Economic Statement. We close with an epic Lewis rant, some AI entertainment, and more!
The later days of any session in Parliament is often referred to as "The Silly Season" as little business gets done, but this has actually been what this whole session has been about. Today we talk Canada Post, more on the latest firearms ban, BC government is back to work, we try to calm the fears of legacy media, and more!
Thank you to Pierre Poilievre for the term! Jagmeet Singh has become a caricature of a feckless politician: is it time for him to go? Just in time for the anniversary of Ecole Polytechnique, another gun confiscation announcement. You can bet Lewis is less than impressed. Arif Virani has offered to split C-63 to get it passed, but will it see the light of day? And more!
It's no news that government is incompetent. The GST holiday has passed, but how much will it help? And how did it get passed? Why did it take a social media post from Donald Trump to get Canada's leaders to take their jobs seriously? Lewis unloads on government, Danielle Smith takes on Stephen Guilbeault, and more!
About that GST cut you've been promised? You may not see that, and we'll tell you why not. And that $250 cheque in April? Will that buy your vote in a Spring election? Alberta looks at changes to auto insurance, while their Opposition Leader can't insure himself a seat in the Legislature, riots in Montreal, Trudeau puts on his dance moves, and more!
Grey Cup Sunday! Vancouver has put on an amazing show to welcome Canada to our annual showdown for Canadian football supremacy. What's less than amazing is some Remembrance Day ceremonies across Canada. Randy Boissonault is back in the news, Nova Scotia's election is far from boring, a bombshell in the Hogue Inquiry, and more!
It's a little surprising, and disturbing that Remembrance Day isn't a national stat holiday. The importance of those who have served this country seems to be fading these days, and one school in particular really dropped the ball on this one. A US election that has consequences for Canada, diversity in our streets, and more!
While Quebec always plays an outsized role in Canadian life, do we want them playing an outsized role in our deaths, too? Enter Bill 11. BC finally has a decision, but do they have a government? A close call for Saskatchewan, is Trudeau going down? And more!
Not only is that what we hear from Justin Trudeau on his resignation, but that's also what the government wants us to eat, allegedly. We'll talk about the Pandemic Preparedness Act, election updates, The Stephen Guilbeault apology tour, Trudeau won't go, and more!
Justin Trudeau is facing a caucus revolt, or is he? Jordan Peterson is back in the crosshairs, BC election results, Pharmacare, and more! To view the BC electoral map, click on the link below:

If Canadians aren't crying out over literally billions of litres of milk being dumped by dairy farmers in Canada, they should be. The Food Professor, Dr. Sylvain Charlebois, makes a repeat appearance to discuss his latest, and controversial, report that isn't being discussed anywhere else.

With two of three provinces going into advance polls, and everything else in this country, it's a no brainer that things have to change. Quebec has gone insane, ER waits are through the roof, "death to Canada" chants? We wrap up with advice for Justin Trudeau, and more!
Tony chats with PC Saskatchewan Leader Rose Buscholl about the Saskatchewan election.
With three provincial elections on, municipal elections on the horizon, and the insanity in Ottawa right now, voting is the best way to make yourself heard these days. Let's discuss those elections, international student refugee claims, will Justin Trudeau shut down Parliament? And more!
Our first of (hopefully) many interviews with parties contesting the election in Saskatchewan.
One week in, our "Honourable Members" are already acting anything but honourable. We are seeing confidence motions, destructive legislation, but we wrap the show up with the most genius AI voice dubbing we've heard to brighten your spirits. Enjoy!
Tony chats with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois about a bill in the House of Commons that will threaten Canada's food supply (for meat eaters.)
Tony has a chat with CAF Veteran and author Bruce Stock about his book, The Canadian Veterans Party, available on Amazon.
Election time in BC & New Brunswick! And, what kind of games could Mark Carney be playing? Bait and switch in Toronto, Justin Trudeau is back in the ring, and more!
Sometimes the government is so far behind they think they're ahead. The Liberal caucus retreat is over, and everything is fine, other than a "Special Advisor to the Prime Minister." Water gun assault, BC Premier waffles on carbon taxes, migrants on the move? 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
