29/07/2026 | 32 mins.The situation in Ontario is critical, and recent revelations from the Ford MPP expense scandal have only deepened the crisis. With the Ontario PC Party polling in the low 30s and Ford's popularity sinking into the 20s, we have an unprecedented opportunity to challenge his corrupt government.
The upcoming by-election in Hamilton East-Stoney Creek is not just another election; it's a chance to send a resounding message that we demand accountability and transparency from our leaders. We must unite to prevent the progressive left from fragmenting the vote, allowing a Ford candidate to slip through the cracks and win by default.
In a thought-provoking conversation, Laura Babcock sits down with Heino Doessing, the Liberal candidate, to ask how to stop vote splitting on the left and how he plans to tackle the pressing issues facing Ontario.

27/07/2026 | 28 mins.As tensions in the Middle East escalate and the specter of World War 3 looms, Canada stands at a crossroads. The Trump regime's aggressive threats grow louder, while the infighting among Poilievre Conservatives leaves us with uncertainty. The NDP seems to be absent from the fray, and Premier Ford is struggling to defend his decisions regarding the airport and his cabinet's costly perks.
Now, more than ever, Canadians deserve a strong, decisive leadership that responds to these mounting challenges. We must rally behind Prime Minister Mark Carney and demand a robust wartime strategy to tackle the new 50% tariffs threatening our economy. Itβs time for action!
In this pivotal moment, Charlie Angus from Meidas Canada, along with host Laura Babcock, come together as the "dynamic duo of democracy" to shed light on the latest developments and emphasize the importance of clarity from the Carney government. We need to know what the plan is to protect our nation and our interests!
