Canadian Common Sense

Email us at [email protected] Canadian values, to be clear. Canadian values. We start the show a little differently, with a Summerland fire update from Lewis, who's right in the thick of it. Stay tuned for an update on trade talks with the US, hate crimes online, is there a culture war in Canada? And more!

Email us at [email protected] We won't go so far as to say that conservatives in Canada are winning, but there are signs that they may have realized that it's time to get their ... stuff ... together. Michelle Rempel-Garner opines on a path forward, Danielle Smith brings common sense to equalization, is the Carney-Ford bromance over? More hits to the forestry industry, and more!

Email us at [email protected] We are joined by Bill from Ontario, who has spent over 30 years in the trucking industry, to discuss not only what's wrong with the business, but how to make it right. Enjoy the conversation!

Email us at [email protected] Where there's smoke, there's fire, and by fire we mean tariff threats. These, of course, became topics raised at the Council of the Federation meetings, where the reactions of various Premiers were quite different from others. Are Canadian values still Canadian? And more!

Email us at [email protected] So, Mark Carney told us all that he was the one who could best stand up President Trump and secure the best deal for Canada RE: the United States. You might not like what we have to tell you on that front. Danielle Smith triggers the left in Alberta over breakfast, Ontario burns, and more!

Email us at [email protected] While the Carney government plays fast and loose with the rules, it would appear that they aren't alone. Are we looking at yet one more new pipeline? We've got submarines; maybe not the best bid, and likely not till 2034, though. New rules for Senate appointments, has Pierre lost his way? And more!

Email us at [email protected] Recorded on July 8, 2026, by Tony, using his earbuds, in the great outdoors! Tony chats with Dr. Charlebois about trade, both inside and outside of Canada, and some interesting guests that Dr. Charlebois has interviewed on his podcast. Enjoy!

Email us at [email protected] We have made our latest attempt at equalizing our audio levels; please let us know how we did with the theme music. Get ready for some serious sloganeering from our Prime Minister, as he is making announcements at speeds never seen before! Not only is he showing his master negotiating skills, he's building, electrifying, and energizing Canada! And more!

Email us at [email protected] We certainly were riddled with a lot of announcements from our government on their way out the door to start the summer. Programming note: we will cover many of these over the summer, but not all of them today. We will talk (today) about the latest "nation-building" projects, taxpayers buying condos, the Montréal shooting, Jamil Jivani pushing back the feds, and a fun fact that you may not have heard about the Dominion of Canada. And more!

Email us at [email protected] While it's well documented that Justin Trudeau has a special soft spot for dictators (his father was one, after all,) we're wondering if maybe that might be a Liberal thing. We'll explore Carney's disdain for Parliament, why Mélanie Joly is in China, is Danielle Smith really a traitor? Encouraging news to end the show, and more!
