The OShow with Laura Babcock

On this extraordinary Canada Day, we had the privilege of speaking with Thomas Lukasik, the inspiring leader of the Forever Canadian movement. As he heads to an important event in Alberta alongside Prime Minister Mark Carney, he's on a mission to reinforce Canadian unity that we all can rally around.

This is a crucial moment for our nation, especially with the upcoming referendum by Danielle Smith and the separatists. Thomas passionately articulates the significance of this day, reminding us of our shared values and collective identity.

Moreover, he shares a thoughtful perspective on what he hopes the U.S. would do differently regarding their approach to Canadian domestic matters.

This conversation is a powerful reminder of who we are as Canadians. Let’s come together, show our love for our fellow Albertans, and embrace this "Christmas" Day for unity!

In a shocking turn of events, Ontario Premier Doug Ford has been exposed for secretly using his extravagant Gravy Plane, costing taxpayers a staggering $10,000 an hour, to jet off to the United States. This isn't just a misuse of public funds—it's a blatant disregard for the people he serves. To make matters worse, he has blocked Freedom of Information requests regarding his cell phone, raising serious concerns about transparency and accountability.

Additionally, after initially claiming there would be no school absences, he had to backtrack on that promise to allow students to participate in sports tournaments this fall. This is not the leadership Ontarians deserve!

In our latest uncut episode of the OShow, Host Laura Babcock sits down with Marit Stiles, the Leader of the Official Opposition, to discuss a pressing question: How do we rid ourselves of Doug Ford as Premier—NOW, instead of waiting three long years for the next election?

This is a critical moment for our democracy. We urge you to tune in, hear the tough answers to the questions weighing on Ontarians' minds, and join the movement to demand better leadership. Don’t just stand by—like, share, and comment to help us protect our democracy together! Let’s take action!

In light of ongoing threats from the Trump administration towards Canada, including issues surrounding the Gordie Howe Bridge and CUSMA, it’s time for Canadians to stand united and assert our strength. Prime Minister Mark Carney took a bold step by delivering a powerful response to Trump, highlighting that Canada is outperforming the USA on key metrics. This is our moment to showcase our resilience and commitment to a progressive future.

Meanwhile, we must not ignore the alarming actions of our own politicians. Pierre Poilievre's refusal to attend a Pride parade sends a troubling message about inclusivity, while Premier Danielle Smith misleads Albertans with the looming Wexit referendum designed to sow division. And let’s not forget Premier Doug Ford, who is clearly feeling the pressure as he attempts to hide his unpopularity while Ontarians prepare for the June 27 #FightFord protests.

It's time to rally against these troubling trends and push for a Canadian conservatism that is inclusive and forward-thinking, free from the divisive rhetoric of the MAGA movement. Join former Alberta economist David Gray and host Laura Babcock as they discuss these critical issues, including the implications of BC developer subsidies and the future of 24 Sussex.
