A weekly podcast discussing Canadian politics and current events from the perspective of two average Canadians.
We've read the (redacted) report from NSICOP and we have concerns; don't miss our last segment. We introduce a new segment to the show, we talk Chrystia Freeland, Calgary's water crisis, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Not only is this phrase a trending meme, it's an appropriate summary of how our politicians feel about us. Why does BC "Bring Crazy" so much? Who is "Randy?" We want names, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
It's not just BC this time, though they are part of the craziness. Should 16 year olds be voting? How many refugees from Gaza is too many? "Period" flags? And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Many Canadians say this isn't the Canada they remember. What we remember is Justin Trudeau telling us we wouldn't recognize Canada once he was finished with it, and he's correct. But what has this done to his own popularity? This, 15 minute cities, the Woke Brigade, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
BC is really going out of its way to show us how crazy it is, but protests on the other coast are competing hard for the crazy title! More EV plants for Ontario, does Justin Trudeau stay, or go? And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Happy Mother's Day! While we spend a lot of time discussing the Public Inquiry Interim Report on Election Interference, it turns out some Cabinet Ministers (allegedly) are able to run interference of their own. Does the BC government hate women? And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Pierre Poilievre will live on in infamy for using the word "wacko" in the House of Commons and being kicked out. Not only is he not the only one to use that word, but he's not the worst offender. That, and more wacko shenanigans, and a little hockey to wrap the show!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Doctors are seeing through the budget bs, as it affects all of us in a negative way. BC is reconsidering drug policies, but why? Why is Pierre Poilievre consorting with "conspiracy theorists?" Let's talk hockey, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
How do we even say it nicely? The country is falling apart, financially and even politically. The Parti Quebecois muses about another referendum on independence, the budget is a bust, Ontario courts are getting more woke? Good and bad in BC, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Justin Trudeau admits he doesn't read security briefings, but he is very good at throwing money around. Should Ontario expand funding for gender re-assignment? Why are economists looking at the CPP? Election talk, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Let's talk housing, and how Justin Trudeau has decided he will pick a fight with provinces to push his agenda. A lot of polling is being released, Han Dong seems to have some memory lapses RE: election interference, yes there will be an election in May, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
We are now tripling down on our call for a May election. Justin Trudeau is campaigning across the country, Pierre Poilievre is leading huge rallies against the carbon tax, and the conditions are ripe for an election. Niagara Region goes overboard, provinces can't balance their books, and we end the show with great news from Nova Scotia! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Note: we attached a poll for our Spotify listeners last week, and will try this out for a little while to see how we all like it. Today, we talk about politicians who seem quite content to waste our time, a lot of our money, and especially our energy. Taxing powers for Calgary, taxing ideas in Toronto, a wasted week in Parliament, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
While Canadians struggle to put food on their tables and fuel in their vehicles, Canada's leaders largely prove to be looking out for themselves. Candidates changing stripes, a growing carbon tax revolt, a PM who finds his job boring, the Toronto Police said what? And more!
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
A horrific tragedy in Ottawa isn't the only chaos, the government is starting to lose its grip. Trouble in Winnipeg, "anarchy" in Saskatchewan, the guys double down on their call for an election, and more!
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
The Trudeau government can't get enough of sticking it Canadians. We dig into the Pharmacare bill, the media's cold sendoff to Brian Mulroney, Online Harms, and more!
--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
With an already looming deficit in Ottawa, Chrystia Freeland has been given even more borrowing power. Is it a coincidence that a Pharmacare deal has also been announced? Small town Alberta goes viral, we wrap up with an uncomfortable editorial, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
We realized that we haven't updated this for a while, so here's a more accurate depiction of who we are!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
The feds no longer care if we know how awful they are. More on ArriveCan, Steven Guilbeault can't help himself, UNDRIP in BC, get ready for an election, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Bell Media made some pretty drastic cuts, which made Justin Trudeau angry. Or at least that's what he tells us. So, how about a few more truths? Like ArriveCan, a bill from Charlie Angus, the Mayor of Calgary, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
"They" being our friends in the woke liberal camp. A completely unhinged response to Danielle Smith, more Liberal corruption, the "Justin-Fidel" debate continues, the 15 minute City of Edmonton, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Danielle Smith is so powerful that her mere appearance with Tucker Carlson can spark national outrage. This faux outrage can better be directed at a Cabinet retreat, Justin Trudeau's racism, or the media who is covering for him. And then there's that Emergencies Act decision. And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Without a doubt our federal government is run by dimwitted ideologues, and Canada's decline is evidence of their failures. But are they just horrible managers, or is this decline engineered? Women in politics, power failures, climate change on trial, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
There's no question about the ineptitude of government, but they're really pushing it at all levels. Municipal taxes going up, the feds make another try at over-reach, feckless legal system, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Some listener feedback caused us to fact check ourselves RE: causes of death in Canada. This is why we love your feedback!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
"They" being our ruling elites, of course. Trudeau's "free" vacation, Saskatchewan "not collecting" carbon tax, increasing deaths from "unknown causes," and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Lewis and Tony discuss some of the biggest stories they've covered over the past year.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
This is NOT the year in review show, that will be coming right away. We had too much content to leave on the table so we're giving you one more show before the year end. And new audio equipment! Revelations on Omicron, housing "solutions," freezing the Okanagan, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Warmest wishes from those two average Canadians from rural Canada. Merry Christmas everyone!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
While these words describe much of government, they have some particular relevance today. Steven Guilbeault can't stop talking, tone deaf Liberals, "doctored" Covid tests, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
With tax hikes, tuition hikes, and more regulation, Ottawa can't get enough of screwing the taxpayer. Feckless leaders, belching cows, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Tony saw street signs on Saskatoon's re-named John A MacDonald Rd and laments the destruction of Canada's history. Note: he refers to a statue tore down in Kitchener, he should have said Kingston.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Lewis is back! And he wraps the show up with a bold prediction on the next election. Liberals continue to stumble, legacy media doesn't like the Conservative filibuster, that scary housing video, another round of Steven Guilbeault vs Danielle Smith, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Tony has a chat about food prices and more with the man known as The Food Professor.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
The show opens with a clip of Elon Musk showing he has been red-pilled. Danielle Smith invokes the Sovereignty Act, Jagmeet Singh gives in, Justin Trudeau starts his unofficial campaign, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Mr. Poilievre says a lot of the right things, but he won't tell us how to make some of this happen. Edmonton demonstrates one more fail on EVs, the Fall Fiscal Update, was that really just a car accident in Niagara Falls? And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Is it time for Justin Trudeau to go? Who should take his place? BC sours on the Carbon Tax, plastics ban is out, the Two Michaels back in the spotlight, we wrap up with listener email, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Our country is falling apart: there's antisemitism on public display, terrorism concerns, on top of economic downturn. Is the government actually here to help? We'll tell you all about it.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Not a typo; he has unified the country against the Carbon Tax. We'll also talk about his divisiveness, his ex-wife, Buffy who, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Major connectivity issues today called for some segments of the show to be edited (unfortunately.) The Trudeau government is expanding MAID again, the Senate is discussing UBI, BC is clamping down on short term rentals, what the heck is with Buffy Ste-Marie? And more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
From Housekeeping items and beyond, you're going to shake your head wondering what's wrong with this place. Pierre Poilievre and apples, China and Canadian universities, Alberta and pension plans, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
This is more than just media gaslighting, in some cases we're just being played for fools. A tale of two island politicians, Canada and Israel, our Supreme Court gets one right, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Yes, we say this a lot, but governments can't get anything right. Bizarre regulations on both coasts, insanity in Ottawa, Manitoba election, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier drops in to discuss Immigration, Cost of Living, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Yes, a lot of you have already figured that out, but we feel some more examples are needed. Trudeau moves past his Nazi incident with a little help from CBC, Saskatchewan standing up for parents, BC insanity coming your way, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Who would think to celebrate a Nazi soldier in Canada? The Trudeau government, of course.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
The Million Person March was a hate march, CEBA business loan extensions aren't what they seem, Canada vs India, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
Seriously, it happened! Trudeau cutting taxes, Poilievre on Westjet, Scheer pushes back on the media, blue wave in BC, and more!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
A Liberal pollster suggests "populism has arrived in Canada" as a way to slam Pierre Poilievre. Tony brings the receipts to show it has been here for a century, and shows no sign of going away. Note: you will all be able to think of even more examples once you've listened, feel free to share them with us!--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/common-sense1/message
The CPC convention has wrapped up with some positive policy discussions and LPC gaslighting, the Lich/Barber trial begins, election fever in Manitoba, and more!
Everywhere but here, it would seem. Pay to play, travel warnings for the US, paying the homeless, and more!
Why does government ruin everything it touches? From the Greenbelt to attacking Jordan Peterson, housing, and more!
The Liberal Cabinet wrapped up meetings in PEI and couldn't come up with any plans to alleviate the housing nor affordability crises. Tony is not thrilled.
We mean this literally and metaphorically. Today's episode goes a little over an hour, our apologies that we have a lot of content to get to. Wildfires rage, taxpayer money goes up in smoke, Doug Ford feels the heat, Danielle Smith pours cold water on Steven Guilbeault, and more!
Canadians would be much further ahead with less government intrusion. Will there be a fall election to change the government? What is Nova Scotia doing on housing? Is the Liberal Party causing fights at family barbecues? And more!
Justin Trudeau becomes Everyman, Meta becomes the bearer of no news, Blaine Higgs gets some good news, Lewis makes a bold prediction, and more!
Justin Trudeau has shuffled his Cabinet, but is it helpful when you have zero talent on the bench? The real cost of net zero, Steven Guilbeault on immigrants, and more!
Canadians have finally realized that we pay too much in taxes, especially given that we get so little value in services returned to us. Toronto aspires to be Vancouver, our immigration system is broken, wind power in the billions, and more!
And we will tell you how they're throwing that money away. Too bad you won't enjoy any money with a new interest rate hike. Trudeau flops at home and abroad, Doug Ford has a short circuit, and more!
Now that all parties have agreed on what a Public Inquiry into election interference should look like, will we have one? Will we have an election before that happens? Another change to O Canada? And more!
Note: at the start of the show you may hear a cat crying in the background. He's fine, he was just looking for his dad. Ideology is killing jobs in Canada, targeting whole sectors of the economy. Ideology is allowing Canadians to die from being refused treatment. Ideology is going to inflict suffering through legislation and policy, and Canadians are going to have to shut up and take it. Or are we?
As Canadians, we tend to shrug our shoulders and go with the flow. Sadly, this attitude is destroying our country. C-18 is now law, UNDRIP is now a basis for Canadian law, Canada's population has grown to 40 million, and more!
Yet another Friday night news drop! Is questioning Residential Schools now violence? Who knew about Paul Bernardo and when? VW keeps cashing in, by-election voting, and more!
We mean that both literally and figuratively. There are wildfires everywhere, the Supreme Court drops the ball, David Johnston finally gets out of his own way, and more!
Did Rachel Notley really win the Alberta election? Is Pride month/season really inclusive? Why have the Kamloops 215 not been found? Did the Trudeau government not know about election interference? And we end the show with comic relief!
We mean that literally and figuratively. Personal debt is through the roof, police officers are punished for supporting freedom, the public inquiry that wasn't, and more!
That's right; nothing to see here. Looks like our hosts were right, and Tony is not happy about it
Danielle Smith stands tall on the debate stage, an NDP defector in BC, Communists in the Alberta NDP, your hosts make a direct appeal to Toronto voters, and more!
PPC Leader and candidate in Portage-Lisgar Maxime Bernier stops in for a chat. Audio warning: our signal gets a little weak about half way through though only for a few seconds.
And it's everywhere you look. The feds ramming amendments through on C-21, Olivia Chow potentially moving to the dark side, Maxime Bernier is ready to clean house, and more!
Our country is being torn apart by evil people who are in charge. Be it Marco Mendecino with C-21, Melanie Joly who won't act on Chinese diplomats, Justin Trudeau, or his bureaucrats, we're losing our country.
Is it time for a new Constitution in Canada? One that respects citizens and limits government? Tony has a talk with the author of such a document.
We mean it this time. The government is coming down hard on law-abiding firearms owners and it is all about dividing Canadians even further.
Our federal government is all about one thing: themselves. The PSAC strikers brag about blocking critical infrastructure with no consequences, censorship is legally in the purview of the CRTC, and firearms advocacy groups are selling out their members, all to benefit the government. The Liberal Party invites a "special" guest to their upcoming convention, and more!
Our current government has proven itself completely incompetent, yet it still stumbles on. A strike in the civil service, Trudeau caught freeloading, a gold heist in Toronto, and more!
This is a difficult question to answer sometimes when referring to those who govern us. Katie Telford talks in circles, Justin Trudeau talks credit cards, the Woke Brigade talks about Regina, and more!
Natural Resources Minister Wilkinson muses about taking control over resources away from provinces. Except he only means the ones that don't vote Liberal.
It's no secret that governments suck at problem solving. It's worse when their "solutions" exacerbate the problems. Vancouver provides a great example. The mayoralty race in Toronto is officially on, an Ontario MPP proposes to protect drag queens, and more!
You may be getting tired of us saying that the government is full of bad people, but they keep showing us who they are. So much corruption, playing fast and loose with our tax dollars, complete disregard for Canadians as people, a big corporate merger, and more!
The MCC report is out and Lewis points out that we've seen this movie before. And he is not happy about it.
Tony has a great conversation with a passionate candidate for the vacant Mayoralty in Toronto.
Why do let out governments abuse us and our tax dollars like they do? Wasted money on "harm reduction," corporate welfare, worthless investigations, and more!
Tony has another take on yesterday's discussion of voting in the next federal election.
Government at all levels is failing, and expect us to roll with their punches and shut our mouths. Trudeau appoints a "family friend" to investigate election interference, Calgary City Council wants you fined if you protest causes they agree with, banks are collapsing, and our politicians are taking a huge pay raise. And we the taxpayer are footing the bill.
Is the Woke Brigade starting to lose their message? Have your humble hosts lost their "conspiracy theorist" title? Is health care starting to make sense? And more!
Ever wonder why there's no Official Opposition in your local community council? Until now, that is! Tony has a good chat with Stella Ambler of Municipal Watch.
If you question Chinese election interference, you're a racist. If you deny you have racist views, you're a racist. If you want to close Roxham Road, you're a racist. And more! Budgets in BC and Alberta, and Lewis rants!
In this show we share the memories of the Convoy from someone who was actually there in Ottawa.
Socialism rears its ugly head, and young Canadians are (apparently) enthusiastic about it. New health care money, censorship, election interference, and more!
That's not a typo. The Liberal-appointed judge cleared the Liberal government in the Public Order Emergency Inquiry, "reluctantly." Brenda Lucki is out, Kayla Lemieux is outed, MAID is back, and more!
Older Canadians worry about money for retirement, younger Canadians can't afford to live for today, yet our leaders are more concerned with woke activism. Lewis has a revelation about our broken health care, the disgrace of John Tory, and more!
Danielle Smith dissed Justin Trudeau publicly, and he was not impressed. Tony, however, is very impressed by Premier Smith.
At all levels of government, and even in our schools, bad people seem to be the ones in charge. It is so bad that Tony agrees with Bloc Quebecois, Lewis has thoughts on BC's new drug possession laws, Halton School Board is back in the news, and more!
We may have found someone in Canada who is even more passionate about firearms than Lewis. Enjoy our conversation with Rod Giltaca from the Canadian Coalition for Firearms Rights.
Lewis rants about today's decision by the Liberals to revoke the Amendments to Bill C-21.
We lay out more evidence of how the Trudeau government is the most corrupt in Canadian history while we wonder about what strings are attached to any health care funding deal. Canadians are broke, vaccines are a joke, and more!
Tony has had enough of government bureaucrats trying to run our lives. They not only want to tell Canadians how much alcohol they can drink, but want warning labels on your beer bottle. And more!
Maybe the title is a little harsh, but is it? A "just transition" edict from Trudeau? Backlash against Ontario trying to innovate health care? Is Jordan Peterson the last man standing for freedom of speech? And more!
Incompetence is the only thing government seems to be good at. From our military, to our economic future, liquor sales, and more, government is just a huge roadblock in our lives.
Lewis rsnts about the sense of entitlement running rampant in society and how it is destroying us.
Jordan Peterson is not backing down over potential action due to his "mean tweets," health officials push back on a new Covid strain, Lewis unloads on a feckless federal government, and more!
Erin O'Toole has asked Canadians to stop displaying flags that read "F🍁ck Trudeau" because he feels they are mean. Tony has a few choice words for him.
What a year it was! Aren't you glad it's over? Three of the biggest stories we covered, in our opinion, were the Freedom Convoy, the ascension of Pierre Poilievre, and Canada's affordability crisis. And we tossed in a little current events for fun. Enjoy!
Nothing political today, we just wanted to send our best wishes to you. Merry Christmas Canada!
There's actually some good news in today's show. The government does a U-turn on MAID, politicians freeze their pay, Trudeau says one thing right, and some less than positive news.
We recommended you watch this documentary on a previous show, and Tony has a good discussion with the man behind the show.
Listeners know that this show title has been our opinion on Trudeau and company for years, and was actually the catalyst for starting this show. The firearms ban, MAID, and the largest spending scandal in Canadian history are yet more highlights to reinforce the lunacy in Ottawa. And more!
Tony has had it with woke governments, etc trying to erase Christmas from our vocabulary.
Justin Trudeau is the most divisive PM in Canadian history, and it shows: the Alberta Sovereignty Act has been introduced, a Saskatchewan Firearms Act to protect lawful firearms owners from Ottawa, and MAID running out of control. Is Trudeau simply asleep at the switch or is his government truly this incompetent?
Who lies under oath and suffers zero consequences? Who amends legislation last minute to confiscate private property? Who takes a stand on masks and won't back down? These questions answered, and more!
Lewis rants about the Ammendment to Bill C-21 that bans all semi-auto hunting rifles and shotguns.
From teachers in Ontario to national dental care, immigration, and more, government continues to be the problem and not the solution. Be sure to listen to the very end as Lewis wraps the show with a very pointed editorial.
Seriously, it happened! And so did the delegates at COP 27. Danielle Smith is now an MLA, keeps moving forward, Chrystia Freeland delivers a fiscal update, Vancouver is Dying, and more!
Doug Ford talked tough with Ontario teachers about legislating them to work backstopped by the Notwithstanding Clause. Until he backed down a couple days later, that is.
We haven't forgotten you, Canada! But when we can get together again, will Lewis have a story for you. We will talk to you soon.
Danielle Smith is sticking to her word, Saskatchewan joins the party, Doug Ford hides from testifying, Ontario Mayors, and more!
You're forgiven if this term is new to you, as it is only being used in the mainstream media to attempt to give Chrystia Freeland some street cred. Tony breaks it down here.
The Emergencies Act inquiry testimony has shown a complete lack of coherent leadership in Ottawa, why does nobody want to lead left-wing parties, and why are doctors taking the lead on MAID? And more!
More provinces join the resistance to Trudeau's gun confiscation, the inquiry into the Emergencies Act calls witnesses, a Halloween warning in Oakville, and more!
71! That's how big Pierre Poilievre's Shadow Cabinet is. That, and a few other notables, has Tony a little concerned.
Apologies for getting the show out later than usual. Danielle Smith ushers in a new era in Alberta politics, staggering numbers in the Quebec election, Digital ID, tech companies set to pay for media content? And more!
Kermit the Frog was right about that, especially in the case of the Green Party of Canada in their self-inflicted death spiral of the last couple of years. And what is up with Peterborough?
The Oakville, ON shop teacher has now made Canada an international laughingstock, and PM Trudeau makes headlines for not taking a holiday. The Prairies take a stand, what the hell is happening with ArriveCan, and more!
This is a trending hashtag that Tony has taken part in, which apparently makes him a Russian bot. The fake news is strong these days, but is it part of the government's plan?
More disturbing news from Saskatchewan, a disturbing teacher from Ontario, Poilievre Derangement Syndrome continues, and more!
Depending on who you listen to, the new CPC Leader has had a good week or he's been stumbling all week. Our broken health care system is losing its heart, Air Canada is losing its mind, who wants to see Elizabeth May naked? And more!
Even though it has only hurt Canadians, the Trudeau government continues to shower us with our own money. Their solution for this idiocy? More money!
The new Conservative Party of Canada leader has many Canadians feeling hopeful for the future. And how about the current PM? Could more back-door gun control be on its way? Climate Police at your front door, and more!
Canada is on the wrong path. Our PM can't get past ideology, our universities are insane, and "zombie ice" is going to get us all. And more!
While nobody likes getting yelled at, politicians should expect people not to like them. Tony wonders why there is such selective outrage in the Grande Prairie affair?
In 1838, Lord Durham referred to Canada as "the most over-governed land (he) ever visited. The Trudeau government said "hold my beer." More MAID insanity, ArriveCan killing the tourism industry, Tony gives the MSM credit for something? And more!
It may be one of the most scenic places in Canada, but governments in BC have gone insane. The City of Vancouver buys and electric firetruck that isn't as good as its peers, and the provincial government has made new mothers its latest target in the vaccine wars.
Fixed! Apologies to all who downloaded dead air earlier today. Veteran's Affairs Canada recently recommended MAID to a combat veteran with PTSD. Manitoba brings a punitive increase to its minimum wage, is hockey ice killing the planet? And more!
Our country is behaving as if no one is in charge and bureaucrats are running the government. Canadians are staring directly at bankruptcy, digital ID, the destruction of Canadian history and values, while our government representatives are nowhere to be found. And you're about to hear that the CBC is not "woke" enough. And more!
Jagmeet Singh and Justin Trudeau are in a constant battle to determine who is the dumbest politician in Ottawa. Mr. Singh may well have found an edge to propel him forward.
The Ideologues in the Liberal Cabinet can't get out of their own way. They have re-announced a plastics ban, imposed a handgun ban, and are bringing stagflation to an economy near you. Jagmeet Singh is still clueless, and did anybody tune in to Shinedown?
Andrea Horwath has "new" political ambitions, ArriveCan continues to be a disaster, the government has redefined "white privilege," and the WHO said what now?
And we're not just talking about the PM's new haircut. Is that PM gearing up for an election? Why does he want to tax cow flatulence? Why would the CPC host a debate now? And more!
Tony spends time diving into Andrew's best-selling book about the Canadian trucker protest heard around the world.
Did Justin Trudeau wander into a "crowd of admirers" in Calgary? Why release gas turbines to Russia? Will there be a fall election? A warning from a listener, and more!
Ontario, please stop: we can't handle any more stupid from you. The Elementary Teachers Federation of Ontario is introducing lessons on white privilege for the fall and Tony can't take it anymore.
BC is now looking for a new Premier, the CPC leadership race is now down to five candidates, and the feds continue their assault on Canadians' freedoms with C-11 and ArriveCan. And a book recommendation to wrap up the show!
From a useless ArriveCan app, canceled flights, and grounded Snowbirds, the Trudeau government isn't just dropping the ball, it's running away from it. Dialing down Canada Day, inquiries getting uncomfortable, and more!
Tamara Lich is behind bars because an Ottawa prosecutor hates her, and Tony is a little upset.
Brenda Lucki potentially compromised the NS Mass Shooting Inquiry by demanding information to help Trudeau's gun bans, the Trudeau government rams through C-11 without reading it, Theresa Tam gets a huge pay raise, and more!
Apologies for the less than perfect audio as Tony was recording literally on the side of the road. The Trudeau government has dropped some vaccine mandates, censors debate on a bill about censorship, Trudeau says you can't defend yourself, and why is this government so clueless on attacking inflation?
Tony checked the actual price increase on his grocery bill, and that didn't go over well. #justinflation
From the number of vaccine shots to be "fully vaccinated," the number of secrets the government is keeping from you, to CPC members, and more, the numbers will keep your head spinning.
As we thought, the Ford PCs scored a huge victory in the Ontario election, BC goes even softer on drugs, the virtuous leftists in Canada, and more!
Justin Trudeau wants your handguns, and cities won't take them away on his behalf, so now he just won't let you buy more. So, does that mean we have just enough handguns in Canada?
Tony sits down for an interview with Mr. Zajac as the Buffalo Party wraps up its policy convention in Regina.
Governments keeps injecting themselves into the lives of Canadians. From gun laws, to vaccine passports on flights, to language laws. One year has passed since the Kamloops discovery, and more!
Lewis rants about how Trudeau thinks that making more gun laws in Canada will prevent another shooting in the US.
Tony wonders why 26 cases of Monkey Pox in Canada deserves the attention it is receiving and why it's okay to use existing treatments for this virus when that wasn't allowed for that virus that came from Wuhan.
Is it white supremacy for Pierre Poilievre to use Anglo-Saxon words? Is it time for legal public nudity? Is Canada really going to ban Huawei? And more!
An Ontario prosecutor wants Tamara Lich in jail for daring to accept an award. You read that right.
Jason Kenney received a less than flattering result in the UCP leadership review and has stepped down as UCP Leader, therefore also as Premier of Alberta. What happens next?
Lewis rants about the Supreme Court of Canada ruling that extreme intoxication is now a defense in assault and sexual assault cases.
Canada is introducing a registry on firearms owners through regulation, doctors are taking liberties interpreting assistance in dying legislation, wokism is infesting our schools, and who was behind the ridiculous format for the CPC leadership debate? And more!
Quebec has now banned oil and gas, Jagmeet Singh wants 16-year-olds voting, and woke ideology continues to tear us down. Are Canadians willing to pay more for increased social programs? Go time for the Ontario election, and more!
Lewis rants about the current situation with inflation and what causes and effects are.
The MSM labels it as an "unofficial" debate because it's not sponsored by their networks, but the crowd at the Canada Strong and Free Network was treated to a robust exchange of ideas last night.
Even though 9 CPC leadership candidates allegedly met the criteria to be on the ballot, only six are moving forward. Not only does Tony question the rationale behind this, he's afraid of the geography represented by the final six. Is the CPC truly a "national" party?
The Trudeau government, aided by a complicit media, continues to distract and deceive Canadians. From a misguided Emergencies Act inquiry to questionable changes to sentencing laws, this government does NOT "have your back." And even the Ontario government is getting in on the cynicism.
The MSM is throwing every bit of mud they can at Pierre Poilievre, and nothing is sticking. They are afraid of him and Tony loves it.
Whether it's Ukrainian refugees who can't get to Canada, Ontario handgun bans, unnecessary subsidies, or wacky tourism ideas, government just loves to mess things up. And the CBC thinks Pierre Poilievre is the new Justin Trudeau? And more!
Lewis rants about the shortage of workers and what a Universal Basic Income will do to make it worse.
Canada's military is proposing changes to its dress code to be "more inclusive," Justin Trudeau unleashes more taxes upon Canadians while the Bank of Canada raises the cost of borrowing money, and it's time for CPC leadership candidates to pay up or get out of the race. And more!
James Topp is marching across Canada to raise concerns in Ottawa over government mandates and the division they have caused. And his support is growing!
Tony has an enlightening conversation with George Douklias, founder of jablessjobs.work, a non-discriminatory employment service made necessary by Covid vaccine mandates.
Whether it's child care, housing, the military, or any program, the government can't get anything right. And then there's the budget.
Former media personality and Wild Rose Party leader Danielle Smith has announced a return to Alberta politics. Could she be Alberta's next Premier? Tony and Danielle discuss her past, present, and future with the Alberta electorate.
With a federal budget on the horizon, the Trudeau government continues with policies and bills that further break Canada down instead of building it up. A political comeback in Alberta, and more!
Canada has decided to buy F-35 fighter jets after all, even after Justin Trudeau canceled a 2010 deal to buy some at that time. While thrilled at the news, Tony is curious why the military is focused on gender rather than building up our Armed Forces.
The CPC leadership race seems doomed to be muddied with a huge field of candidates. Gerry Diaz dooms himself to ridicule, the NDP/Liberal "agreement" dooms us all, and is Jason Kenney doomed as Alberta Premier?
Justin Trudeau lectured the EU Parliament on defending Democracy, and they were having none of it.
The CPC called this last year, and now it's here. The guys might have some thoughts on this one. Change coming to the CFL? How under-equipped is the Canadian Armed Forces? And more contenders for the CPC leadership!
Tony is horrified that the Ontario NDP have suggested lowering the voting age to 14, and that they have sponsored Bill 67 that will become an Ontario version of Critical Race Theory.
The Ukrainian hero President chose Canada as one of many countries to speak directly to and was cheered raucously after the fact. But was the standing ovation needed? And what the hell is Elizabeth May talking about?
In a previously recorded segment, Lewis and Tony are very disappointed by the government's unserious approach to Canada's military, specifically in Canada's commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
The Conservative Party of Canada now has rules, and multiple candidates for leader. The government rushes to bring as many refugees as possible, a private member's bill looks to introduce a universal basic income, and more!
With energy prices out of control and much of the world banning Russian energy, Canada could become the energy superpower Stephen Harper imagined us to be. Except that we can't even supply our own needs.
While our Minister of Global Affairs is busy working on a war in Ukraine, her department is evaluating whether or not they are woke enough.
As quickly as it came, the Emergencies Act went, as Trudeau discovered he wasn't going to get his way. Freedom Convoy organizers are denied bail, and by whom? Nazis everywhere, war in Ukraine, and more!!!
Today is the day Saskatchewan dropped its public health order, meaning that masks are no longer required in public spaces. Tony could not be happier to enjoy the sweet smell of freedom.
You're forgiven if you thought the video coverage of riot police roughing up peaceful protestors was from Russia or some banana republic, but that was Ottawa. Was the Emergencies Act needed in the first place and should it pass in the House of Commons now? How much of a coward is Justin Trudeau? And more!!!
Justin Trudeau claimed there was no way to end the protests against mandates other than to bring the full force of government against protesters, so we now are living under the Emergencies Act. While already heavy-handed, Chrystia Freeland has promised to make it worse, and make some of it permanent. Ontario announces an end to restrictions, Jean Charest may return to politics, and more!
First, whoops, Tony introduced the show stating it's 2021, incorrect: Feb 13, 2022. Provinces are dropping mandates, border protests are expanding, and authorities can't decide how to handle peaceful, loving protesters. Candice Bergen flip-flops, is Justin Trudeau finished? And more!
Tony watches the Freedom Convoy grow, and notes that Justin Trudeau and the elites in Ottawa still don't see what's going on in Canada.
Lewis rants about how the Maple Leaf is being viewed as a Symbol of Hate by a small but vocal minority.
GoFundMe cancels the Freedom Convoy account, State of Emergency in Ottawa, the CPC has its first leadership candidate, and more!
Erin the Red has officially been removed as Leader of the CPC after a vote in caucus. Who is a likely successor and who will lead in interim before a new leader is chosen? Why does it seem like there are two completely different protests in Ottawa? And more!
The Freedom Convoy has arrived in Ottawa with tremendous support. Or, they're a bunch of white supremacists, depending who you listen to. Is Covid a flu after all, and more!
Justin Trudeau is "self-isolating" after allegedly being exposed to Covid, despite testing negative and feeling fine. What could he possibly be hiding from?
Tony supports the Freedom Rally in support of cross-border truck drivers and offers simple ways to increase efficiency in our supply chain.
Canada's truck driving heroes have now become zeroes in the eyes of our government. But who is really to blame for our supply chain issues? Gyms open in protest in BC, China buys another Canadian miner, and more!
SK Premier Scott Moe spoke out in favour of freedom, and Tony's NDP MLA was appalled. Apparently freedom is a bad thing?
From RCMP encouraging snitch lines to Canadian cell phones being tracked (by our own government,) this is not the Canada we once knew. And more!
We got a couple things wrong with last year's predictions, and we'll see where this year's predictions will take us. We review Covid, Residential School discoveries, and more!
Tony had another red pill moment. If Covid vaccines are meant to eradicate Covid, why hasn't Covid been eradicated?
Lewis rants about the insanity that is the BC and Quebec governments ordering Covid positive Health Care workers back to work.
Tony is quite troubled by a post on our show's Facebook page, and by the resurgence of censorship bills in the Ministry of Heritage.
Justin Trudeau hands his Cabinet their mandate letters on the last day of Parliament to avoid scrutiny, but we've read them for you. Canadian cities are challenging Bill 21, and why is Lewis on today's show?
While the MSM wants you to fear Omicron, they don't want to talk about the coming collapse of our health care system. The guys have some very disturbing numbers. Updates on the BC rebuild, and a Christmas tree shortage? And more!!!
Omicron has let the media down by not being dangerous, Maxime Bernier passes a leadership review, Ontario goes insanely woke, and more!!!
Run! Hide! There's a new virus in town, we don't really know how bad it is, but let's live in fear as if it's really bad. Also new is another Green Party leader, Justinflation is rising, and trending, and more!
Tony warns Canada to be weary of "experts," and wonders why the Trudeau government's Throne Speech sounds more like a rushed high school assignment than a road map for our government.
Justin Trudeau hangs Canada out to dry at COP 26, can't budge the US on electric vehicles, and won't visit BC until "it's appropriate." Eco-terrorism in BC, gun bans in Quebec, and more!
Lewis brings shocking reports on the devastation in British Columbia from flooding, Erin O'Toole goes further down the road of the dictator, and why does the conservative movement continue to self-destruct?
As strange as it sounds, Quebec was given that recognition by PM Stephen Harper. With PM Justin Trudeau's vicious attack on Western Canada, it's time all provinces get the Quebec treatment.
Inflation is here, and much higher than the Consumer Price Index would have you believe. Instead of turning to sound fiscal policy to help Canadians, our government has chosen to punish us with higher taxes, higher prices, and less purchasing power.
This show title is hardly news, but this government seems to be against anything Canadian. Erin O'Toole reveals his Shadow Cabinet, Maxime Bernier puts his job on the line, and more!
This is a fascinating talk with Glenn Aaldarink. Glenn is a nurse out of Kamloops, BC and he is one of 4000 BC health care workers that were suspended for failing to disclose their vaccination status or for failing to receive a vaccine. He and other suspended nurses have started Ezra Wellness.
Justin Trudeau wants to demean and destroy Canada, and Erin O'Toole is afraid to stand up for the country he served as a soldier. Doug Ford gets it right, the Supreme Court squeaks one out, and more!
Tony can't stand the Mainstream Media. They are no longer interested in truth or facts, only their own narrative, and that needs to change.
Justin Trudeau does the Cabinet Shuffle, but hardly any new names appear, mostly the same people with new titles. Doug Ford stands tall, Saskatchewan is off the wall, and more!
Edmonton and Calgary elect leftist Mayors, overreach, compelled speech, and vaccines that are not as advertised. And more!!
Canada was excited when a former soldier was appointed as Minister of Defense, but all Harjit Sajjan has overseen has been disastrous behaviour from the top brass. And now, the military wanted to test propaganda on our own citizens? Time to clean house!
Inflation is real, no matter what the government tells you. More shortages are on the horizon, more Trudeau corruption, and more!
Can any of our leaders get something right? Anamie Paul drags the Green Party down, Justin Trudeau surfs away a memorial day of his own design, Erin O'Toole (for now) keeps his job, and more!
Tony can't believe the arrogance of a Prime Minister who champions a new holiday meant to reflect upon bad decisions from past federal governments, by making a completely tone deaf decision of his own.
Tony is upset that the Liberal promises on affordable housing are completely backwards and will fail. That is, if the government even tries.
Sad news for Maryam Monsef, $612 million wasted, and no change in the House of Commons. What's in store for all national party leaders, and more!
The Election About Nothing, or Trudeau's Vanity Election, is all but over, and has left Canadians more divided than ever. And nothing will change after tomorrow's vote. Is it time to reform elections, debates, or the system itself? And more!
As this election campaign winds down, polls indicate more of the same in Ottawa, and leaders only have themselves to blame. Can Trudeau govern with fewer MPs than O'Toole? Will the Greens be wiped off the map? Lewis closes the show with fire! And more!
Now that the most watched show in Canada is over, who looked most Prime Ministerial? Will this change the rest of the campaign? Will vote splits make any difference? And more!!!
If governments won't mandate "the jab," employers will do it for them. And Tony is livid about it.
When the election was called, we warned you to be ready to be bribed with your own money. Along with $78 Billion in more deficit spending, Trudeau is bribing provinces and cities with more billions to implement policy he couldn't pass as PM. Tony has had enough of this.
Justin Trudeau openly attacks Erin O'Toole, and Jagmeet Singh is shunned at his own event. A Leaders' Debate that few of us watched, a Liberal platform with no surprises, and more!
The latest election buzzwords has Tony going after the root cause of why homes are so expensive: taxes.
Justin Trudeau is throwing any mud he can think of at Erin O'Toole and nothing is sticking. Max Bernier is out of the Leaders' debate, and are the Taliban our "brothers?"
Tony weeps at the police state Australia has become and sees the same for Canada if Trudeau is re-elected.
Even though it was Justin Trudeau who wanted this election, it is his party that appears unprepared. Tony was dead wrong about the Nova Scotia election, BC goes berserk, and the Afghanistan crisis puts government incompetence on display.
Apologies for some road noise in the background! Tony continues to be frustrated by the government's ever-moving goalposts in regards to Covid restrictions.
Lewis rants about BC Premier John Horgan going on holidays during the worst wildfires in BC history.
Canada needs to stop virtue signaling and get serious about helping our allies in Afghanistan.
Tony sees all federal parties ready for an election, while claiming nobody wants an election. But they may be correct in that assertion.
A federal election is imminent, and the Trudeau government has been throwing money around to prove it. Except that Canada is broke. And so broken.
Tony is disgusted that the LPC is using your tax dollars to campaign with Government of Canada ads.
Interview special! Tony has an enlightening conversation with retired Senator Tkachuk, discussing the Senate, politics, and more!
When we have more civil servants than the whole population of many Canadian cities, there is little wonder that the wheels of government turn so slowly. And it's costing people their lives.
Justin Trudeau will likely call an election next week just because he wants a majority government. He also weighs in on Logan Mailloux while ignoring his own indiscretions. CFL season is upon us, and more!!!
Tony challenges Jagmeet Singh to get out of Toronto and see the real Canada, and he has some words for a certain Globe and Mail writer.
The RCMP weigh in on government policy, both for and against. Already there are hundreds of complaints that our new Governor General doesn't speak French. Some don't want her to learn another "colonial" language. Nova Scotians go to the polls in August with very inclusive candidate slates, and a federal election is right around the corner. Lewis loses his cool, and more!
Be sure to listen to the end! You will hear history of Sir John A that you will hear nowhere else. Is Parliament a "whites only" club? Lewis was right again, and more!
Sports Illustrated is the latest to cave to the Woke Brigade, and Justin Trudeau silently watches Cubans protest over ... that depends on who you ask.
Canada is burning to the ground, not just due to forest fires and church burnings, but our leaders are dividing us instead of uniting us. Right in time for an election call. And more!
Justin Trudeau has telegraphed an election, and all parties are gearing up. What his Liberals plan to run will scare you. And another Wuhan cover-up exposed? And more!
A cheap and plentiful cure is available for Covid, but not for the corruption preventing us from getting it. Which bills from Parliament are now law, more Canada Day craziness, and more!
From canceling Canada Day, censoring the Internet, to changing the name of a football team, Canada's wokeness will eventually get us all. And more!
Tony is troubled by governments that continually pander to Quebec with no regard for the rest of Canada.
The Trudeau government doesn't just hate Western Canada, it hates Canada, our founders, and our history. And recent events make it clear they have more hate to share.
Justin Trudeau told Canadians to expect a "one-dose summer," and now it appears there may also only be one vaccine. And more!
While your humble hosts do enjoy being called conspiracy theorists, Tony sheds some light on the Wuhan virus that takes the wind out of the conspiracy sails.
Liberal MP Will Amos is making himself famous, for all the wrong (and disgusting) reasons.
Crazy talk about changing the Constitution, it's time to stop calling Lewis and Tony conspiracy theorists, and a Prairie storm of Covid: or is it really the Wuhan virus? And more!!!
Quebec is a nation within a nation, Nova Scotia re-writes the Charter, which protests are okay? And more!
Could a crucial oil pipeline for Ontario be shut down? What is going on in Alberta? Can you stop calling Lewis a conspiracy theorist? And more!!!!
The smell of corruption oozes from government benches eager to sweep away the General Vance scandal, is one Covid vaccine really better than another, the RCMP has a dirty little secret, Internet censorship, and more!
Got your Covid shot yet? If not, you're a bad person. How dare you not be afraid? But, why are considered a bad person for following the data?
As Covid ravages Ontario, the whole country goes crazy. Erin O'Toole has more crazy ideas, and is Lewis really a conspiracy theorist? And more!
Chrystia Freeland delivers her first budget, full of spending, taxes, and virtue signaling. Ontario patrols their borders, Jagmeet Singh calls for the Emergencies Act, and more!
Erin O'Toole has pledged to scrap Trudeau's carbon tax and instead introduce a carbon tax, at the exact same amounts as originally promised by Justin Trudeau. Can somebody call Pierre Polievre to take over?
The Liberals and NDP held policy conventions and both parties want more of YOUR money. CFL/XFL merger talks? And more!
Premier Jason Kenney forgot that politicians work for the people. Almost 1/4 of his government MLAs have now turned on him to remind him of who's in charge. Will this cost Mr. Kenney his job?
Both the Liberals and NDP have policy conventions this coming weekend, and we have some crazy proposals coming! Vaccines roll in (but not AstraZeneca,) and the NL election has finally been called. And more!
A Laurentian elite government benefits Laurentian elites, often at the expense of Western Canada. Canada's legal, political, and economic systems are stacked to benefit the Laurentian Triangle, and Western Canadians are fed up, as shown by a much-shared April Fool's joke today. Could Lewis have been right about Canada's future?
The Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the feds can impose a tax on provinces as long as it's a national regulatory one. Canada falls to 62nd place on the vaccination chart with more vaccine problems, and more!!!
While Canada's Liberal government is big on promising Covid vaccines to Canadians, they are very short on actually delivering them.
The Conservative Party of Canada held a virtual policy convention wrapped up with an election-style speech by Erin O'Toole. Canada moves to 55th place in vaccinating citizens as vaccine confusion continues, and more!!!
It turns out Justin Trudeau did know about the General Vance situation three years ago, and didn't just hear about it on the news. AstraZeneca has raised some eyebrows, and Canada's telcom market has created some potential policy moves for the Trudeau government.
Tony is feeling nostalgic as Canada has spent one year in pandemic mode, and is wondering if the Trudeau government knows it has been two years since they've delivered a budget to Canadians.
Erin O'Toole continues to disappoint, businesses can't compete with government handouts, is Justin Trudeau really the one to trust with Canada's finances? And is Lewis right again? And more!
An all-out fail on Covid hotels (if a person can even get through to book one,) more failures managing the military, yet Justin Trudeau will likely move ahead with a Spring election.
Tony is tired of Justin Trudeau's inaction when it comes to Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor.
Can anyone picture what $2 Trillion looks like? That's how much Canada's combined debt is, and it's only growing. When will Canadian governments get this under control?
The Trudeau government's Medical Assistance in Dying bill has been amended to include Depression as a reason to end one's life. What's really depressing is that it will likely become law.
Lewis breaks down how Bills C-21 & C-22 make no sense, Ontario MPPs' arrogance is on full display, changes to the Official Languages Act, and more!
Tony is disappointed in poor leadership from governments across Canada but is encouraged that citizens have finally had enough and are stepping up.
Lewis rants about the gun ban, Bill C-21, and the ban (Bill C-22) on minimum sentencing for the worst gun crimes we have. Do all these moves mean an election is coming?
Lewis and Tony are fired up in this show! The Trudeau government refuses to call China out on anything, and actually invites Huawei to invest in Canadian university IT research. Bill Blair offers even more ridiculous gun control measures, and more!
As Canada falls to 38th place in vaccinating citizens, vaccines are trickling in, Justin Trudeau is begging India and stealing vaccines from 3rd World countries. NL election delayed, and does the Chinese Communist Party own Canada's Consulate in Beijing? And more!
Tony unloads on Canadians' choices of pathetic leaders. From Justin Trudeau to Julie Payette, General Vance, Premiers, and Mayors, why do Canadians accept such weak leaders?
The Liberal Party of Canada can't take a principled stand on anything, and it has Lewis and Tony frustrated as xxxx
Zero vaccines for Canada this week, and Liberals deliver non-answers to Canadians instead. Tony has ideas for a new Governor General, pipeline concerns, and more!
Police break up a backyard hockey practice in Ontario, fine a mother for dropping her kids at Grandma's, keep kids away from their schools and social activities, and prairie pubs and restaurants are fined. Kids' mental health is suffering, and Saskatchewan claims zero flu cases due to Covid.
Tony, despite being an ex-pat Albertan, has woken up to the reality that there is no hope for Canada's energy sector.
Newfoundland is next in line for a pandemic election, soon to be followed by the feds. Canada again is at the back of the vaccine bus, and what the Hell is going on in Ontario? MacLean's most influential Canadians, and politicians with integrity?
Police in Quebec inspect a woman's lunch bag to prove she's going to work, while Ontario police are allowed to judge whether they believe you have a good enough reason to leave your house. Bureaucrat doctors push for more lockdowns, and BC ponders locking the rest of Canada out. It's time for Canadians to say "no."
Tony reads a few excerpts from the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and shows how governments in Canada are trampling them. And he implores Canadians to read the Charter and stand up for their rights.
Justin Trudeau once said we wouldn't recognize Canada when he was done with it. With curfews, lockdowns, and police state tactics, your humble hosts have to admit he's right.
While telling Canadians to stay home and not see family and friends, Prime Minister Trudeau has gone wherever he wants. After hiding where he was for Christmas, Tony has only one thing to say to Mr. Trudeau, and it isn't very nice.
No real consequences for traveling government leaders (and where has Justin Trudeau been?) Canada's government has missed a few deadlines, and we (for once) end the show on a high note!
Reacting to a smug remark from Justin Trudeau, Tony sounds off about improving Canada's strained health care system.
Covid, Covid, and did we mention Covid? Governments' reactions to the pandemic, the fallout from those decisions, and Lewis and Tony's predictions for 2021!
While Canada's governments have taken much from us in 2020, there is hope as we end this year with some positive news.
In a rare flash of honesty, Canada's Finance Minister admits Canada can't reduce global emissions no matter what we do. So, why all the carbon taxes?
Provinces are locking down, while Trudeau raises taxes yet has no money to gives provinces for health care. Ontario threatens your mobility if you don't prove your Covid vaccination, and who is Canada's closest ally?
Canada has created a Covid Vaccine Adverse Reaction Settlement Fund. What does thia say about the safety of the Covid vaccines? A lot.
Almost! Justin Trudeau actually invited the People's Liberation Army to train with Canadian soldiers, and was furious when the Canadian Armed Forces canceled the exercises. Who's side is he on?
As Canadians become increasingly skeptical about a Covid vaccine, maybe it's good to have so few coming our way? Is Canada saying goodbye to North America's oldest company? And is Chrystia Freeland reaching for your bank account?
Tony reminisces about the Canada of his youth where no one reported their neighbours to the government.
Since our inept government can't present a budget, how about a "Feminist, Inclusive" Fiscal Update? Canadians are standing up against lockdowns, and Jordan Peterson makes people cry. And more!
When it comes to Covid vaccines, Canada wants to watch everyone else get one first. And even though we can make vaccines here, we aren't.
More than 72 police officers have formed a human vhain around Adamson BBQ in Etobicoke, Ontario. The police and the government have crossed a line.
Lewis brings the numbers to show the government's reaction to Covid is killing us, Trudeau and Huawei, and a hero emerges in the Toronto lockdown.
Canadians are getting more frustrated daily, and are starting to wake up to what governments are doing to them. And they will want their country back.
Lewis rants about the CFL because this weekend was supposed to be Grey Cup weekend and the CFL is the only sports league that didn't find a way to play.
Lewis rants about The Great Reset that Trudeau is pushing. It scares him and it should scare you too.
The sorry absence of leadership in Ottawa leads to bankers talking climate change, political leaders trying to nationalize Covid-19, and do we really need more immigrants right now?
As governments across Canada announce more lockdowns and restrictions, the side effects continue to be more dangerous.
The alliteration is a coincidence! Covid lockdowns, and a Covid camp? Shredded WE documents and more Liberal corruption? And Calgary votes to defund its police service.
Lewis rants on how undemocratic our new gun ban is and why that should matter to people who don't like guns.
Justin Trudeau is all for limits on Freedom of Expression, our Charter right, until public opinion changes his mind.
Peter McKay has announced he will not run for a seat in the House of Commons after all. This shows he was only in the leadership race for himself, not for Canada.
Lewis rants about the media and politicians took 7 months longer than Canadian Common Sense to talk about the deaths caused by the lockdowns.
Some kids can trick or treat, others not. Ms. Freeland is going to spend us into bankruptcy, Dr. Tam is playing social engineer, and Lewis may be right that Canada is doomed to break apart.
Justin Trudeau is throwing taxpayer money at the CBC, airlines, and anywhere else he can think of. He just doesn't want his government to make a budget to pay for it.
Lewis and Tony break down the provincial votes in BC and Sask, and touch on two Toronto byelections.
Corruption leaks out from this entire government, yet Jagmeet Singh helps it crush any attempt to investigate. And how about some more taxes?
In its mad rush towards Socialism, Canada embraces the UN, and portable hospitals made for everything but Covid. And more!
Tony has had enough of Jagmeet Singh's stupidity. So much so, he formally challenges Mr. Singh to a debate. And he's a little upset at Mr. Singh's latest effort to tax businesses to death.
Jagmeet Singh sells Canada out for a third time, killing investigation into WE. A second Carbon Tax, political scandals, and more!
Our bloated governments are drunk on power, and are now policing fun in Quebec, shutting down bars and restaurants again.
Lewis rants about Trudeau sending $400 Million dollars to foreign countries to fight Covid-19 while we need every penny here in Canada.
Jagmeet Singh gets bought off with the Throne Speech, election fever grips Saskatchewan, Catherine McKenna ate what? And more!
Sadly, today's Throne Speech delivered exactly what was expected: PM Trudeau wants the oilpatch dead and all of you to go green. And be sure to pay your taxes so he can buy off your neighbour.
The government was briefed on Covid in December, yet waited until March to act. Is Canada going to the polls over a UBI? And more!!
Lewis rants about how he is feeling less and less Canadian since he shares the views of fewer and fewer Canadians all the time.
Former Liberal MP Raj Grewal is facing 5 charges in relation to $6 million in gambling debts, and the CBC is silent. And how did he pay it back so quickly?
We re-introduce ourselves to our new listeners, and celebrate the demise of WE. Justin Trudeau talks about a $500 Billion deficit, more corruption in Cabinet, and is Trudeau campaigning already?
Canada's Chief Medical Health Officer has some very bizarre medical advice for us. So bizarre it causes Tony to praise Pierre Trudeau.
The Trudeau government has now changed EI to make it even more attractive for Canadians to thumb their noses at working.
The guys are fed up with scandals, the lack of leadership in Canada, and are even upset about being right again.
As promised, we will keep you up-to-date as we get more information. How did the NS shooter recruit help from across the country?
Erin O'Toole is the new CPC leader, and will he bring down the Trudeau government? Yet more WE and Liberal corruption, and were your humble hosts right again?
Tony happily admits he was wrong, and is forced to give Justin Trudeau credit for brilliant political tactics RE: WE.
Justin Trudeau has avoided testimony, rented a lavish lake cottage on a vacation all paid by you, lost a Finance Minister, and gained more scandals. And that's just this week. And so much more on the show!
The Conservative Party of Canada will name its new leader soon, but the name of that leader won't matter unless citizens take the lead in holding that person to account.
While demanding that Justin Trudeau fire his Chief of Staff and Finance Minister and then himself resign is a bold move, Mr. Blanchet can't possibly be serious.
Governor General Julie Payette spent our money on designs for cat doors and private stairwells, WE hasn't paid back any money for their cancelled contract, and Justin Trudeau's Chief of Staff gets caught in a conflict of interest. And more!
Ontario Premier Doug Ford reminded us to shop locally after tariffs were announced on Canadian aluminum in the United States. Shouldn't we be buying Canadian already?
An official public inquiry in the Nova Scotia tragedy, a Liberal MP resigns, and a WE scandal spiraling out of control. These are not good times for Justin Trudeau.
More revelations on the growing WE scandal, the CFL keeps trying, and more bombshells from the Nova Scotia shooting. And a surprise announcement at the end!
The Liberal Party of Canada wants you to think the worst part of the WE scandal is that the student job program didn't go ahead. So, what about all that corruption?
The WE charity corruption bubble gets bigger every day. And is Julie Payette a mean boss?
Aga Khan, SNC Lavalin, and now WE? Justin Trudeau can't seem to stop himself from corruption. And has Andrew Scheer been reborn?
A recent Toronto Sun article pegged the cost of a UBI at $98 Billion. Tony shreds the numbers.
Justin Trudeau steps into corruption again with WE, tells Canada how to be a better country, and gets a visit from an angry Canadian soldier. And more!
Saskatchewan is the first jurisdiction in Canada to enact Clare's Law, but is unable to enforce it where it is needed the most.
Canadians are not allowed to celebrate in groups this year, but are allowed to protest in groups. Our leaders continue to fail us. It's time to replace them.
The Maritimes band together to lock the rest of Canada out, tourists are spotted across the country, and the RCMP looks for systemic racism.
The Canada/US border is closed: or is it? American tourists and illegal crossers still using Roxham Road are raising questions.
The UN seats Canada at the back of the line, CERB extended, Peter MacKay on pipeline vetoes, and more!
In this episode, we look for systemic racism in the RCMP, another Trudeau power grab, and what the heck is Chaz?
Tony has a simple question for those who support this idea: "do you know what you're asking for?" And of course Tony offers a simpler solution.
Kind of a rehashing of a previous rant, but Tony's message is the same: Canadians want to work, governments need to let them. This means governments also need to get to work.
Even if it was only one day, Canada's Opposition parties joined to defeat Justin Trudeau's bid to expand the CERB.
From politicians defying their own rules to get photo ops at protests to job numbers and more, Canada is being over-run by hypocrites. And Canada's telcoms have rejected Huawei.
Justin Trudeau and his media friends are happy to virtue signal about racism while ignoring Canada's horrible treatment of our First Nations.
With a compliant media, ineffective Opposition, gun bans, and more, PM Trudeau has taken Canada closer to a dictatorship than ever. Are you embarrassed to be a Canadian?
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh sold his soul for a policy that will never become law, and Canada will suffer for his buffoonery.
China has all-out attacked Hong Kong yet Trudeau refuses to take it seriously. And will Canada survive the upcoming debt crisis?
Canada's federal political parties are drawing a wage subsidy for their staff. Should they count themselves as a business?
Justin Trudeau pays temporary foreign workers to self-quarantine, pays Canadians to stay home, and suggests Canada needs immigrants to help the economy rebound. He, and Canadians, need to get to work.
PM Trudeau is offering businesses bridge loans, in exchange for their soul. Oh wait, just for a stake in the company. And they have to comply with Liberal party policies.
Tony credits Canada's mainstream media for realizing that we're in a recession, and has some revelations about a virus from Wuhan.
The inmates really are running the asylum. The government is going full dictator, spending is out of control, and nobody seems to be able to stop it.
Justin Trudeau has announced a sweeping gun ban instead of tacking the real problem - criminals
Canada holds the 3rd largest known oil reserves in the world, and Justin Trudeau is happy to leave it in the ground. Tony is NOT happy.
PM Trudeau announces a ban on 1500 rifles in Canada without the consent of Parliament, and why won't he call out China on the Wuhan virus?
The RCMP have been surprisingly forthcoming with information about the mass shooting in NS, but they need to answer for so much more.
The real victims of the pandemic come as a result of the government response. Provincial governments are making plans to reopen their economies.
