Western Provinces Demand Change—What Happens Next?

Across B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, frustration with Ottawa is growing. With a referendum expected this fall in Alberta, the bigger question is not if this matters, but what happens next for the West and Canada as a whole. 
Why are more people in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba talking about sovereignty? What’s driving this discontent, and could it reshape the future of the country? 
Join David Leis live with Alberta columnist Cory Morgan, Lee Harding from Saskatchewan and research fellow at the Frontier Centre, and Ken Drysdale from Manitoba, co-founder of the National Citizens Inquiry, as they give a critical update on the movement, the rising alienation in the West, and what Canadians need to watch. 
This isn’t fringe anymore. It’s real, it’s growing, and Canadians should be paying attention. 

Canada is Screwing Up Its Economy, What's the Fix

Canada’s economy is in trouble, says leading economist Jack Mintz. In this brutally honest conversation, Jack says jobs are vanishing, growth is stalled, and your wallet is taking the hit. Decades of high taxes, bad policies, and government overreach have left Canadians paying the price. Jack reveals the shocking truth, that Canada is falling behind the rest of the G7, and ordinary citizens are feeling it the most. 
Learn why “Big Bang Tax Reform” could be our only way out, how government choices are strangling investment, and what could happen if we don’t act now.  

MPs Crossing the Floor—Should a By-Election Happen?

Floor crossings in Parliament are sparking outrage and raising serious questions about democracy in Canada. Should politicians be allowed to change parties without a vote or should Canadians demand by-elections when it happens? 
How often does this happen, and is it getting worse? 
Join David Leis live with former Liberal MPs Dan McTeague and Robert-Falcon Ouellette, and Marco Navarro-Genie of the Frontier Centre as they break down the history, the politics, and what this could mean for you. 

Conflict in Iran & Canada’s Energy Mistake You’re Paying For

As gas prices keep climbing, Canada could have protected itself by building more pipelines, but we didn’t. Now, with conflict in Iran driving global oil prices higher and putting pressure on energy markets, Canadians are paying more at the pump.  
Host David Leis and Gina Pappano from InvestNow Inc. expose why hostile public policy, activist pressure, and Canada’s banks are working against the oil and gas sector, and who may actually be benefiting. Why do we continue to hurt our own prosperity when Canada has the resources to help stabilize energy prices and strengthen the economy? Listen to hear the questions you should be asking your banker and the policy changes Canada urgently needs. 

Land Claims vs Property Rights: Canada’s Next Big Legal Fight

Recent legal battles and agreements in British Columbia are raising serious questions about property rights, investment, and the future of land ownership in Canada. A landmark ruling recognized Aboriginal title over private land in the Cowichan tribes case, while new lawsuits, like the Dzawada'enuxw claim against Interfor, and secret federal agreements with the Musqueam Indian Band are reshaping traditional territories, often without public input. 
Could these decisions open the door to more claims on private land? How does B.C.’s DRIPA legislation impact property owners? And what does this mean for homeowners, investors, and the rule of law in Canada? 
Join David Leis live with John Carpay of the Justice Centre, former MP Dorothy Dobbie, and former judge Brian Giesbrecht as they unpack the latest court cases, policy decisions, and the implications for Canadians nationwide. 

Justice Based on Skin Colour, Is That Fair?? | Bruce Pardy

"Canada has created different classes of citizens" says law professor Bruce Pardy. 
He explains why Canada's laws don't treat everyone the same. He says we're moving toward a system where your identity matters more than your individual rights. So what's really going on?  
This isn’t left vs. right. It’s about fairness. It’s about freedom. And it’s about whether the same rules still apply to everyone. 

Is DEI a form of Racism? | Live Conversation

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies have reshaped universities, corporations, governments, and public institutions across Canada. But are these initiatives strengthening society or creating new divisions and unintended consequences? 
Join David Leis live with lawyer Collin May, Professor David Haskell, and Marco Navarro-Genie, VP of Research at Frontier Centre, for a long-overdue conversation about the real-world impacts of DEI. 
Where has DEI succeeded? Where has it fallen short? Should institutions rethink or roll back these policies? And what practical policy reforms could move us forward in a way that promotes fairness, opportunity, prosperity? 

The Cartels Are in Canada, and No One Is Talking About It

Cartel violence in Mexico isn’t just Mexico’s problem anymore. 
From vulnerable ports to immigration screening gaps, security experts warn that Canada is not insulated from the narco-state dynamics reshaping North America. 
Intelligence analyst Scott McGregor says: cartels operate like sophisticated global businesses, tourism money fuels influence, and eliminating a single kingpin doesn’t dismantle the system, it may make it worse. 
The question is no longer whether this affects Canada. 
It’s how prepared we are and whether current policy enforcement is enough. 

Mexico’s Cartel Crackdown, What It Means for Canada?

After the death of a major cartel leader in Mexico, violence briefly flared but authorities moved quickly to restore order. What actually happened, and what does it signal about stability in the region? 
More importantly, what does this mean for Canada? Are cartel networks operating here? Has Canada’s immigration and border policy kept pace with evolving security risks? 
Security analyst Scott McGregor and Marco Navarro-Genie, VP of Research at Frontier Centre, join David Leis to break down the aftermath of the cartel leader’s death, how Mexico responded, and what policy lessons Canada should be considering now. 

The Shocking Reason Your Grocery Bill Keeps Rising

Canada’s grocery bills are out of control, hitting 6.2% inflation, the highest in the G7. But this isn’t just about rising prices, it’s about government policies and structural problems that are making it worse. 
Dr. Sylvain Charlebois, Canadian professor and researcher, exposes how trade barriers, weak competition, and financial programs are fuelling food inflation. Sylvain says Canada’s economy is drifting behind the U.S. and shares what policymakers are failing to tell you. 
Your wallet is on the line, and the warning signs are clear: without real policy change, prices will keep climbing and Canada’s economy could face serious consequences.
