Remembrance Day is meant to honour the sacrifices made by Canadian Armed Forces. But recently, attitudes have shifted. Reports of disruptions during ceremonies indicate an eroding respect for what this day represents. Not only that, but banning military chaplains from prayer seems to be at odds with Canada's freedom of religion. In this episode, Jeremy and David discuss whether Canadians are losing touch with core values. How do we restore the honour, duty, and respect that once formed our country's foundation?

Which headlines are a distraction of the real issues at hand? And how should citizens get involved?
Over a decade ago, Stephen Harper foresaw the financial strain Canada would face under Justin Trudeau’s leadership, accurately predicting the rise in deficit and national debt. Today, Jeremy and David discuss how Trudeau's policies—particularly his approach to mass immigration—have exacerbated Canada's housing crisis, leading to widespread economic and social challenges that were once avoidable. Is Canada losing its core values?
Was the wildfire in Jasper, AB preventable? In this episode, Jeremy and David dig deeper into the lack of planning, communication, and infrastructure that exacerbated this disaster.

When dissenting opinions are squashed, critical thinking is abandoned, and tribalism reigns—our society has succumbed to groupthink. It's time to get out of the echo chamber and think for ourselves. Join Jeremy and David's discussion as they challenge the status quo in a world increasingly dominated by conformity. #GroupThink #SilentMajority #GoWithTheFlow #CitizenPodcast
