CHP TALKS

My special guest this week is Charlie Buurma, an abortion abolitionist coming to us from Sarnia, Ontario. Charlie had a difficult childhood with time spent in foster care and a time—before becoming a Christian—when he actually considered suicide. We’re so glad he did not take his own life but had a life-changing experience meeting Jesus Christ. Charlie is now heading up an organization called The Rescue Project and is seeking to wake up the church and transform the culture, ultimately eliminating the killing of an innocent preborn child.

My guest this week is Ted Kuntz, President of Vaccine Choice Canada (https://vaccinechoicecanada.com). Ted was involved in exposing government lies and misinformation during the Covid years and has continued to play a leading role in holding governments accountable for the harms caused by their policies and mandates—before, during and following Covid. He speaks about the Allison Inquiry and the upcoming National Citizens Inquiry into private property rights and the impact of UNDRIP.  

My special guest this week is Pastor Kevin Cavanaugh, long-time warrior in the culture wars and a strong advocate of effective Christian witness as we see so much of our civilization and society going galley-west! Kevin is Executive Director of Free To Care; he speaks in churches and to community groups across the country as a staunch advocate for families and helps folks understand the power of a biblically-based model of parenting and grandparenting

My special guest this week is Mr. Lex Acker, a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) with over 15 years of experience going through the SEC filings of publicly listed companies. His diligent research and analysis of corporate finance was applied to the vaccine mandates and policies of BC’s Public Health Officer, Bonnie Henry. In this episode, we discuss the first three posts of an 11-post series that can be found on Mr. Acker’s substack, Truth and Freedom. In this series, he completely exposes the political motivation and lack of scientific evidence behind those policies and mandates.

This week I have not one, not two but three (!) guests on my program. On top of our municipal and school board elections, BC Premier David Eby has called a provincial election, trying to take advantage of the division within the BC Conservative Party. I’m grateful that our CHP-BC Leader, Mr. Christian McCay is running in Langford-Highlands and CHP-BC President, Ed Ewald is running in my home district of Bulkley Valley-Stikine. We also have an exciting new candidate, Mr. Jeff Brown, running in Juan de Fuca-Malahat. In this episode, we discuss some of the hot topics in BC right now.

Note: Only BC residents are allowed to contribute financially to these campaigns. 

This week I am speaking about my candidacy for School Board Trustee for Telkwa and Quick (SD #54, northern BC). I mostly talk about the importance of ensuring parents are involved in what their children are being taught and in any decisions being made or any activities being planned in the school in which their children would be expected to participate.

My guest this week is Tom Harris, a friend of the show and Executive Director of the International Climate Science Coalition—Canada. Tom is an expert on climate science. In this episode, we discuss the proposed West Coast Oil Pipeline, part of a much-larger project, the National Interest West Coast Corridor, currently under review by the Major Projects Office.

My special guest this week—and our go-to expert on all things that taxpayers and citizens need to know—is Kris Sims, Alberta Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. We discuss the move to abolish the Canadian Senate, once seen as the ‘Chamber of Sober Second Thought’, but now described as a rubber-stamp for the government in power.

My special guest this week is Det. Helen Grus of the Ottawa Police Force. Det. Grus testified recently at the Allison Inquiry. She was suspended in February, 2022 for investigating whether the doubling or tripling of infant deaths in Ottawa might be connected to the rollout of the covid vaccines and the injections of pregnant women and nursing mothers. Her investigation was halted and she herself was disciplined and demoted for her efforts to uncover the causes of death, although that was part of her job at the time. A documentary, Silencing Detective Grus, has been made about the attempts to discredit her and her work.
