The Faulkner Show

Pickering city councillor Lisa Robinson has been suspended without pay for a third time now and is also facing the prospect of losing her council allowance because of her work on council and her comments. Before the end of the year, Pickering mayor Kevin Ashe put out a bizarre video in which he warns the city about the dangers posed by councillor Lisa Robinson after random social media users left mean social media comments on city council posts and for Robinson's appearance on right wing podcasts. All of this is happening because of what Robinson has said but was any of it actually that bad?

This is one of the most bizarre stories happening right now in Ontario. Do city councillors have a right to speak to media and make their own social media posts? Are they responsible for social media comments left by other users? Can mayors subvert the democratic process and kick councillors out of a job?

Robinson joins Harrison Faulkner on the latest episode of The Faulkner Show to discuss.

Long time Liberal MP from 1993-2011 Dan McTeague predicts that the Liberal Party of Canada won't survive after the next federal election due to the leadership of outgoing prime minister Justin Trudeau. McTeague believes that the Liberal Party of the past, a party built around the ideas of pragmatism and fiscal responsibility has been replaced by a far-left ideology headed by Justin Trudeau which is at odds with the majority of Canadians.

Tune in to the latest episode of The Faulkner Show for a wide ranging discussion about the state of the Liberal Party, potential new leaders and how Canada should respond to the expansionist threat posed by U.S. president-elect Donald Trump.

On The Faulkner Show to break down the news of Justin Trudeau's resignation announcement is pollster and former Stephen Harper aid Hamish Marshall. On the show, Marshall discusses the implications of a prorogued parliament, the future of the Liberal party and what this means for the Liberals heading into a federal election.

General Andrew Leslie, a former Liberal MP from 2015 to 2019 and the Chief government whip of the Liberal caucus, joins Harrison Faulkner to discuss the political implications of Justin Trudeau’s resignation as prime minister and leader of the Liberal party.

Leslie also served as one of Trudeau’s foreign policy advisors before he became prime minister and offers a unique insight into what Trudeau’s foreign policy actually was.

General Leslie was the Commander of the Canadian Army and also discusses the state of the Canadian Armed Forces on the latest episode of The Faulkner Show.

The latest public sector strike that halted Canada’s economy was the Canadian Postal Workers strike in the lead-up to Christmas but this issue has been a persistent issue for many years. Powerful unions in critical industries have been forcing workers to down tools when they’re needed the most.

Most Canadians agree that unions should be able to strike and bargain for better wages and rights, but should that include critical industry workers as well who routinely use strikes to shut down the economy?

Gwyn Morgan, one of Canada’s most senior executives in the natural resources industry, breaks down the problem and provides some solutions to this issue that might work for everyone involved.

In an attempt to address rising gun crimes in Canada, the Trudeau government added 324 firearms models to its prohibited list, building on the 2020 ban of 1,500 models. The total prohibited list has now grown to over 2,000 models.

But here’s what the Trudeau government won’t tell Canadians – the majority of gun crimes are being committed by illegal guns and not by individuals who have gone through the strenuous process of legally obtaining a firearm.

Joining The Faulkner Show today is Ian Runkle, a criminal defence and firearms lawyer and the creator of the YouTube channel Runkle of the Bailey. Tune in now!

The City of London, Ontario, was the site of Canada's first "safe supply" exemption program where drug addicts could receive hydromorphone tablets as a "safer" alternative to fentanyl and heroin. Since the program's inception, London has become a diversion hub for hydromorphone tablets all over the city and across Ontario. One councillor, Susan Stevenson, has decided to fight back and speak on behalf of her constituents; however, she now faces a 30-day pay suspension without pay for doing exactly that.

Susan Stevenson joins Harrison Faulkner on the Faulkner Show.

Radical Indigenous activists have become far more brazen in their rhetoric and their action in recent years, emboldened by a soft and self-hating federal government led by Justin Trudeau. The Canadian government has condemned itself for crimes against humanity without any evidence, allowed statues and churches to be toppled and torched and systematically erased the symbols and stories of our great national past. Why? When the radical indigenous activists shout "decolonization", what exactly do they mean? Is this a call for violence and a justification for racial territory?

Joining Harrison Faulkner on the show is writer Michael Melanson who draws a concerning parallel between the actions of Hamas in the Middle East to those we see in our streets led by the radical Indigenous "Land Back" activists.
