My guest this week is Mr. John Markus, our CHP candidate in Oxford (ON). I was privileged to be in the district for our Challenge the Culture conference and had the rare opportunity to interview our candidate in studio rather than via zoom. We talk about farming in the area and other issues. Due to a camera glitch, the video froze for several minutes and we didn’t discover this until we processed the clip. Due to my travel schedule and Mr. Markus’s campaign schedule we were not able to redo the interview. The audio was not affected.

My very special guest this week is Jordan Guildford, founder of Gems for Gems and the force—with her hard-working team—behind a new initiative called Hope’s Cradle. This ambitious project envisions a facility in fire stations across Canada where women struggling to care for a newborn baby can safely and anonymously surrender the child into the care of people who will make sure it’s kept warm, properly nourished and taken into a good foster home or adopted. Two such facilities are already in operation in Strathmore, AB and Landmark, MB.

I’m pleased and honoured this week to once again have the opportunity to speak with Harold Jonker of Jonker Trucking. Harold has been trucking for 28 years and in early 2022, took part in the Truckers Freedom Convoy. Now, 15 months after the convoy was forced out of Ottawa by a brutal and overwhelming “military-style” police action, Harold has been ordered to report to the Ottawa police to face charges related to his involvement with the convoy—charges of which he is not guilty. He and his wife Janice and their 13 children are facing this development with faith and complete trust in the Lord. Harold is being assisted by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedom (https://www.jccf.ca).

My very special guest this week is Dr. Haywood J. Robinson, Director of Medical Affairs and Education for 40 Days for Life. Dr. Robinson had a dramatic conversion in 1986 and became a follower of Jesus Christ. He and his first wife, Noreen (who passed away in August 2021) had both been abortion providers before their conversion. They then became solid pro-life supporters. Dr. Robinson then helped start the 40 Days for Life organization. He is now remarried; he and his second wife, Daphne, work tirelessly to save preborn lives; between them, they have eight children, five grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

Dr. Robinson will be speaking at the March for Life in Ottawa on May 11.

 He will also be speaking on: May 16, 7:00 pm at the Oakland Bible Chapel, 2736 Fernwood Road, in Victoria, BC

My special guest this week is Mr. Vishal Mangalwadi, author of 25 books, including this important one: The Book That Made Your World: How the Bible Created the Soul of Western Civilization. During this interview we discuss how the words, the phrases, the teachings of the Bible have given meaning, structure and freedom to peoples, the cultures and the institutions of many countries, including Canada and India . . . and how those freedoms are at risk as governments and academics have abandoned the Word of God. 

 Vishal Mangalwadi will be doing a speaking tour of Ontario, beginning in Ottawa: April 23 and including Mississauga: April 25, Brampton: April 26, Toronto: April 27, Burlington / Hamilton: April 28, and St Catharines: April 29 (2023).

My special guest this week is David Darwin, National Secretary of CHP Canada and Chair of CHP’s Economics and Finance Department, one of our policy committees. David and I discuss a platform plank that would completely eliminate the national income tax and replace it with a much fairer and less intrusive national sales tax. That way, the working taxpayer would not have his or her paycheque drained by the CRA but could decide how much to save, invest or use on consumables. It would eliminate the “bracket” disincentives to working harder and saving more.

My special guest this week is Colin Craig, President of SecondStreet.org. Colin—a former staffer at Canadian Taxpayers Federation and a fighter for free enterprise, lower taxes, smaller government and more freedom—is managing a project for Second Street, called: Survivors of Socialism. He and his team are conducting interviews with Canadians who have escaped from communist and socialist countries where living conditions are harsh and freedoms—especially freedom of speech and movement—are severely restricted. In our discussion, we talk about some warning signs that Canada may be heading toward a socialist collapse of finances and freedoms. The goal of the Survivors of Socialism project is to educate Canadians with true stories from people who have experienced the devastating results of socialism firsthand.

CHP TALKS: Corrine Mori—BC Nurses Challenge Union’s Failure
My special guest this week is Corrine Mori. Corrine is an ER nurse in Nelson, BC, who was fired for non-compliance with BC’s illegitimate vaccine mandates. We discuss the collapse of BC’s healthcare system, the failure of the BC Nurses’ Union to protect the contractual rights of nurses, the delay of proceedings by the government-influenced Labour Relations Board and the wave of nurses and other health care professionals leaving BC due to the mandates, current working conditions and the additional threats posed by the implementation of BC’s Bill 36.
