Today’s podcast:

The province of Alberta is in conflict with the federal Liberal government of Justin Trudeau, with Premier Danielle Smith and her UCP government passing the Alberta Sovereignty within a United Canada Act on December 8, 2022. - Smith has since challenged Ottawa on its overreach into provincial consitutionally enshrined jurisdiction over energy development, with the Supreme Court of Canada, by strong majority supporting Alberta's position energy development is provincial government domain. Smith has, like Saskatchewan premier Scott Moe, declared Ottawa is endangering national unity with its demands for elimination of fossil fuels to produce so-called 'clean' energy by 2030. Like Scott Moe, Danielle Smith was in Dubai for COP 28 and is not at all pleased with the positions adopted in Dubai by federal environment minister Stephen Guilbeault. Will the conflict between Alberta continue in 2024 and what might it look like and how is, in the premier's view, the Trudeau government stepping on provincial jurisdiction?

Note: we also ask the premier for her reaction to 15-year-old being arrested near Ottawa Friday and facing like terrorism charges in court tomorrow. A 16-year-old was arrested by the RCMP in Calgary on similar grounds by RCMP on Wednesday. Youth radicalization concerns?

Guest: Danielle Smith. Premier. Alberta

15-year-old in Kanata, Ontario arrested by RCMP facing terrorism charges. 16-year-old in Calgary on Wednesday - Antisemitism increase and calls for Genocide against Jews publicly in Canada, including post-secondary institutions. - Trudeau government voting for UN resolution calling for humanitarian ceasefire without a mention of Hamas.

AND: Global News today - Teen terrorists: Does Canada have a youth radicalization problem?

Guest: Avi Benlolo. Heads Abraham Global Peace Initiative. Canadian Embassy in Israel hosted exclusive screening of AGPI documentary The Future of Israel and its Defenders.

Guest: Mercedes Stephenson. Contributed to the story. Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief and host of the network's flagship national political affairs program The West Block.

Measuring the mood of Canadians on a myriad of issues in 2023 was IPSOS Public Affairs polling for Global News. We review the major opinion trends and ones which we should not be unaware of. As well, a look ahead into 2024 as far as what it is Canadians want, expect and/or refuse to accept is concerned.

Guest: Darrell Bricker. CEO IPSOS Public Affairs. Author: NEXT.

On a personal level 2023 was the year I was diagnosed with stage 4, metastatic prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is an increasing concern for men who all too frequently ignore symptoms, as I did. Earlier this year we spoke with Todd Seals who in 2007, at the age of 42, was given just months to live following a metastatic stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis. 16 years later Todd Seals is still very much alive and living well, although he continues to battle his cancer. - New, excellent, but hugely expensive medications are available today, but weren't when Todd was first diagnosed. His story has been reported on by major media and health organizations. Todd rejoins us today with a message for all men, their significant others and families. HIs message is personal, direct and filled with humour. Do not let 2023 pass without acknowledging symptoms and make sure 2024 is the year of treatment and maximizing life.

Guest: Todd Seals. Stage 4, metastatic cancer survivor. In the Men's Health piece Todd is quoted this way "they say people faced with death have two choices: pick up the gloves or pick up a shovel. I've always been a fighter."
