Today's Podcast "Axe the tax" Playback of our exclusive interview with Pierre Poilievre on his "axe the (carbon) tax" national election commitment - and separately Poilievre's reply to BC premier David Eby's claim that Poilievre's "axe the tax" messaging is from the CPC leader's "baloney factory." Keeping in mind the majority of Canada's premiers support Poilievre, including the only Liberal premier Dr. Andrew Furey of Newfoundland and Labrador. Guests: Pierre Poilievre (playback) Callers Just days after George Lovie, convicted first degree murderer of the parents of Don Edwards went AWOL while on day parole with an arrest warrant issued for Lovie, he was granted full parole by just two members of the National Parole Board. The parole board also declared the double murderer doesn't need to understand why he is a risk to others. Lovie has been on day parole since 2019, but has for a year-plus been allowed to spend five nights a week in his own apartment near Sudbury, Ontario. The Edwards family remains very much afraid of Lovie and during his being AWOL was warned by police to put their safeguarding practices into play. Guests: Don and Tannis Edwards. Public frustration with and opposition to the carbon tax continues to grow. We heard from CPC leader Pierre Poilievre on his 'axe the tax' national pre-election commitment yesterday and today, as well as BC premier David Eby characterizing Poilievre's challenge of the carbon tax as being from PP's "baloney factory." Listeners/callers have challenged the BC premier and an email sent by a Green Show listener to Trudeau, Freeland, Guilbeault and Singh, with Poilievre and me cc'd is brief, and describes the pain the carbon tax and misdirection by politicians who do not share the difficulties the average Canadian addresses daily continues to receive positive listener response. - As well, an IPSOS poll for RBC of last October details the distress Canadians, particularly younger adults, are experiences over money woes. A majority of these Canadians told IPSOS their personal relationships are impacted by financial stress and mental health has suffered as well. The Mental Health Commission of Canada previously affirmed unemployment and financial problems to be key risks for suicide and that when the economy turns down, depression and anxiety rise. Then, we take your calls. Does listener George's email represent your experience trying to stay financially afloat and do you support George's call for tax relief? Guests: Sean Simpson. VP.

Today's Podcast: Pierre Poilievre's "axe the (carbon) tax" national campaign continues and despite BC premier David Eby not joining the majority of Canada's premiers supporting either ending the carbon tax, or at least delaying the implementation of its April 1 scheduled increase and describing Poilievre's letter to the bc premier requesting his support for the "axe the tax" initiative as something from the Pierre Poilievre "baloney factory" the CPC leader, who national polling shows continues with his national campaign. We speak with Poilievre about carbon tax, national economy (bank economists expressing deep concern), crime and justice, immigration, Melanie Joly's photo with Mahmoud Abbas and more. As well, on Monday a federal NDP motion in parliament will have MPs voting on the NDP's call for Canada's support for the establishment of a State of Palestine, as well as an end to arm shipments from Canada to Israel. Guest: Pierre Poilievre. Leader: Conservative Party of Canada For years it is said that in the aviation industry the cliche was "if it's not Boeing, I'm not going." Now it's rumoured the cliche has become "if it's Boeing, I'm not going." Boeing's terrible record of producing safe airliners over the last years again earlier this year, as well as last week was highlighted through mishaps involving 737 Max aircraft including the door plug blowing out of an Alaska Airlines 737 Max in January, a 787 Max Dreamliner which plunged without warning injuring up to 50 passengers last week, also last week a tire falling off a Boeing 757 seconds after takeoff from San Francisco airport and the nose wheel of another Boeing 757 airliner broke away while it was taxiing toward takeoff at Atlanta International Airport in January. Boeing is under FAA investigation. Last Sunday I flew from Orlando to Toronto on a 737 Max 8 and it was an uneasy experience. What is going on with Boeing? Guest: Captain Raymond Hall. Former head of the Air Canada Pilots Association and multi-decade Air Canada captain who flew Boeing airliners on major international routes. G&M headline: More economists are getting deeply worried about Canada's future - and investors are taking notice. Earlier this month Scotiabank's head of capital markets economics Derek Holt wrote "I'm deeply worried about public policy in my country." Over last weekend BMO chief economist Doug Porter and National Bank strategist Stefane Marion joined the grim chorus. And the OECD projects Canada's economic performance this decade and through to 2060 will be dead last among advanced nations. Meanwhile, we have what the world needs and is willing to purchase, namely natural resources such as oil and natural gas. Guest: Professor Eric Kam. Macroeconomics, Toronto Metropolitan University. When it comes to ethics and ethical behaviour and the stunningly minor penalties for ethics violations for ignoring of ethics from the PM down to the occupants of the very back benches in parliament what is the story? A former Liberal MP shares with us that not only was there (for her) the demand of unethical behaviour, but as well there were in 2007 significant penalties if that demand was not adhered to by the MP. - As well, our guest's husband was present when coaching on violating ethics took place.

Yesterday Prime Minister Trudeau in Kyiv committed to Canada's continued support for Ukraine. Guest: Borys Wrzesnewskyj, former Liberal MP with strong ties to Ukraine.

The lawsuit follows the Federal Court ruling the Trudeau government violated the Charter rights of all Canadians by invoking the Emergencies Act. According to Barber's lawyers by freezing the bank accounts, credit and debit cards the federal government violated Section 24 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Guest: Chris Barber, owner of C.B. Trucking in Saskatchewan. & Eva Chipiuk. Alberta lawyer representing Barber in his lawsuit against the federal government.

When he emerged Michelle ran to her parents home with Lovie chasing her. Lovie broke into the home and shot to death Donna Edwards, then stabbed Arnold Edwards, several times shouting "how do you like me now?" George Lovie has been living under day parole for some time. Two nights per week at a Correctional Service Canada halfway house and five nights a week at an apartment he has rented. The Edwards family remains very much fearful of Lovie who had a hearing scheduled for March 8 during which the National Parole Board was to hear his appeal for full parole. A great deal has happened in the past few weeks in the case. Guests: Don Edwards and his wife Tannis. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Roy Green Technical/Podcast Producer – Tom McKay If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!

Sat, 24 Feb 2024 - 14264 - Feb24: President CMA Dr. Kathleen Ross. 6 million Cdns have no family doctor.
The federal NDP and Liberal Party agreed to forming/funding of a national pharmacare program. For millions of Canadians the issue is far more basic. These Canadians often cannot obtain a prescription (or diagnosis) of their serious, even life-threatening illness. At present more than 6 million people in Canada are without a family (primary care) doctor. Some patients are dying. That number will soon reach 10 million, or 25% of the current national population. Family doctors under huge pressure are moving to other medical disciplines or retiring. Where should the emphasis be? Pharmacare or securing sufficient numbers of primary care physicians?

Sat, 24 Feb 2024 - 14263 - Feb24: Dr Brian Day. Is it time to increase private healthcare delivery options in Canada?
Is this the time to increase private healthcare delivery options in Canada? How does anyone answer "no" with more than 6 million Canadians having no primary care physician? If the answer is "no" is it so truly to protect Canada's public healthcare system, or to protect political capital? Our guest argues Canada's public health care was once the envy of the world, but no longer. He has for decades fought in court and in the court of public opinion for patients to have greater options to seek and obtain the care they immediately require.

Today’s podcast: Federal Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault is attempting to walk back his statement "there will be no more envelopes from the federal government to enlarge thed road network" to a Montreal conference earlier in the week. Also stated the federal government wants to get Canadians out of our cars and trucks and living in high density urban areas. Premiers Ford and Smith immediately challenged Gilbeault. - Also the Liberals rebranded the 'Climate Action Incentive Rebate' as the 'Canada carbon rebate.' Guilbeault is also hinting at changes to be announced concerning his energy dictates for provinces, as what he has proposed is receiving heavy pushback from particularly Alberta and Saskatchewan. Trudeau government continues to claim 80% of Canadian households paying the carbon tax will receive more money in rebates than they pay for carbon taxation. Not so according to Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux in interviews with us. Guest: Dan McTeague. President: Canadians for Affordable Energy. The aforementioned Stephen Guilbeault stated in Canada's parliament that Dalhousie University professor Sylvain Charlebois had stated there is no evidence the carbon tax is negatively affecting food pricing in Canada. Professor Charlebois immediatley pushed back declaring he had never such a thing. Guest: Professor Sylvain Charlebois, Director Agri Foods Lab at Dalhousie University This was a heaveily debated issue 30+ years ago and it's back. NDP sponsored children's rights legislation, Bill 273, would ban spanking of children at home or using force on children at school by supervisory adults (teachers) received support for a second reading in parliament by a 208-115 vote. Section 43 of the Criminal Code (introduced in 1892) and most recently amended by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2004, permits parents to spank judiciously, not in anger and with age consideration of children. The Canadian Teachers Federation opposes the NDP bill/ What about parents? And how does a prominent criminal lawyer view the proposed legislation? (It has been argued parents forcing a child into a children's car seat might run afoul of no corporal punishment legislation.) Guest: Ari Goldkind. Criminal lawyer and media commentator. The federal Liberals and NDP are attempting to negotiate a national pharmacare program in order to keep their political alliance alive and prevent a snap election. Is that a sound basis for a program securing pharmaceuticals for Canadians dealing with a need for medications including significant, even life-threatening illness? Would a national pharmacare program be funded sufficiently that the newest and most effective drugs for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and other serious illnesses become and/or remain available, or would a pharmacare bureaucracy be underfunded or over-regulated to the point pharmaceutical companies would not make the most recent and effective/expensive drugs available to Canada and Canadians?

In 2006, Canada's economic performance was so outstanding the Economist wrote of Canada as an economic "superstar" and "the only country running current-account and budget surpluses."

Today writes Philip Cross, appointed Statscan Chief Economic Analyst in 2008, Canada's financial sector has toppled and is known for being "an ATM and safe deposit box for money laundering. The OECD last year downgraded Canada's prospects for economic growth through 2060 to dead last out of 38 nations. Most damaging to Canada's economy "are the obstacles governments have deployed to hamper our energy industry." In 2022 Justin Trudeau claimed there is "no business case" to support LNG exports to Europe (which the Europeans desperately wanted from Canada).

Bruce Shisheesh is the former Chief of Attawapiskat (northern Ontario First Nation). In early 2016, Attawapiskat made international headlines over the youth suicides and attempted suicides the community was attempting to deal with and without even fundamental resources required. Bruce Shisheesh was the Chief of Attawapiskat at the time. Chief Shisheesh traveled to Ottawa to meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who followed the meeting with a letter directly promising a visit to the First Nation community, which had existed without clean drinking water for decades, and Trudeau ended his letter with the words "Indeed, I look forward to visiting Attawapiskat in the near future." 8 years later the struggles in Attawapiskat continue and Mr. Trudeau has not been seen in the community, something Chief Shisheesh reminded me of on 'X' earlier in the week.

Do Lib MPs not realize they're on the road/highway to unemployment? In the interest of self-preservation cross the floor, facilitate the inevitable a CPC majority government and go now! If they'll have you after strong response the first post was followed by: 2: You have to admit 20 to 30 Lib MP's switching sides and moving @PierrePoilievre into the PMO corner office 'before' the fed elexn would shake up Ottawa like it has never been shaken up before.
