- Canada Gets Armed: Facing the Military Threat of MAGA
Meidas Canada looks at the changing military situation facing Canada. We also do a deep dive into the Trump's golden missile scheme and the pressure on Canada to go along.

Over 150 Canadians, including children, have been kidnapped off the streets by ICE. In Trump's first six months, he has moved from kidnapping people to setting up cages as concentration camps.
Meidas Canada calls out the attack on the rule of law and the establishment of American concentration camps. We need to speak up for all those being held without trial or access to legal representation and their families.Support MeidasCanada:Subscribe to The Resistance Substack: charlieangus.substack.comFollow MeidasCanada:Facebook: @meidascanadaInstagram: @meidascanadaBluesky: @meidascanada.ca22 min - How to Fight Facists - Be That Guy

20 min - Grandmothers Against Genocide
Gaza is being destroyed brick by brick. There is appalling silence from Western leaders over the deliberate starvation of the families and children. Grandmothers Against Genocide is a powerful grassroots movement of resistance, teaching us lessons in how to kick at the darkness.
Charlie Angus, the host of Meidas Canada, recently attended a vigil in Toronto where Grandmothers gather at Bay and Bloor every Wednesday at 8 am. Vigils are now taking place across the country.Support MeidasCanada:Subscribe to The Resistance Substack: charlieangus.substack.comFollow MeidasCanada:Facebook: @meidascanadaInstagram: @meidascanadaBluesky: @meidascanada.ca21 min - The Coming MAGA Hate Storm
Canada is about to be rocked by the rage storm coming in the form of MAGA MAPLE leader Pierre Poilievre, stoking fears of immigration. He is using the temporary foreign worker program as the Trojan horse to drive the rage machine. This is all about the extremist dog whistles.
This is the far right playbook in action. Anti-immigrant disinformation has been used across Europe and in the United States. Once MAPLE MAGA and the MAGA ALBERTA separatist gang begin to stoke divisions, that's when Trump will ramp up the pressure on our nation.The storm is coming, and we need to be prepared. We can get through this if we hold the line. Thanks to Moe's Latté in Charlottetown for allowing me to film at his beautiful shop.Support MeidasCanada:Subscribe to The Resistance Substack: charlieangus.substack.comFollow MeidasCanada:Facebook: @meidascanadaInstagram: @meidascanadaBluesky: @meidascanada.ca11 min - Maple MAGA's Handmaid's Tale and Anti Vaxx Rage
Albertans stood up this week against Danielle Smith's book-banning scheme. But don't get fooled by Smith's backtracking. This isn't just another dumb MAGA-Alberta blunder.
The fascist playbook is about attacking knowledge, attacking science and undermining women's rights. On this episode, we explore the connections between Danielle Smith and MAGA's most dangerous guru - RFK Jr. We're examining the connection between banning books and the war on vaccine science.
