  • MAGA Won't Break Up Our Country - We're Treaty People

    A small minority of MAPLE MAGA are trying to break up Canada. They need to be reminded that they are on treaty lands, and that Alberta and Saskatchewan didn't exist until 30 years after the treaties were signed. If MAPLE MAGA wants to leave Canada, we will pack their bags.

    Recently, Meidas Canada host Charlie Angus visited Fort Qu'Appelle in Saskatchewan and spoke with James Daschuk, author of "Clearing the Plains", about the treaties and the horrific history of residential schools.
    This is our special feature for Orange Shirt Day.

  • Why We Resist - Lessons from Canada's Birthplace

    Canada was born as the United States was tearing itself apart in a horrific civil war. Isolated regions came together despite deep divisions to build a nation rooted in compromise so that we wouldn't fall into the violence of the United States.

    Today, we must renew our commitment to this project known as Canada in the face of a new civil war. That is why the Meidas Canada Network launched our national tour in the birthplace of Confederation.

  • There Are No Bystanders In Fighting Facism

    In the fight against the gangster fascists, there are no such things as bystanders. There are enablers and resisters. It's a choice.

    In this episode, Meidas Canada host Charlie Angus debunks the so-called "bystander effect," which falsely claims that people do not step up when help is needed. People are stepping up, and we need to encourage their resistance.

  • Don't Get Burned in the Ring of Fire

    The Ring of Fire is a massive mining project in Canada's north. Meidas Canada host, Charlie Angus, was the Member of Parliament in the region and knows the project well. This episode is a deeper dive into Canada's less-than-stellar record on Indigenous rights.

    This video might make some people uncomfortable. But if we are going to engage in "nation-building" projects, then we need to look at the kind of nation that we are going to build.
