CleanTwo Premiers challenge Prime Minister; MP punished by Liberal Party for being transparent; United we Roll protest convoy closes in on Ottawa; Former Premier derides parliamentary ethics probe | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Yesterday Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe, New Brunswick Premier Blaine Higgs and CPC leader Andrew Scheer participated at a pipeline capacity increase rally at Moosomin, Saskatchewan. The point was to draw attention to the controversial Bill C-69 which will create major changes to review of proposed energy projects. Meanwhile, the Saskatchewan court challenge of the Trudeau government's imposition of a carbon tax on the province is currently underway. And Premier Blaine Higgs insists the Energy East pipeline construction issue must be revisited as his province experiences daily the importation of hundreds of thousands of barrels of foreign oil for New Brunswick refineries like the Irving refinery in Saint John. Premiers Scott Moe and Blaine Higgs join Roy to start the podcast, and discuss these issues. What does happen when an MP refuses an offer or refuses to buckle under pressure from the party leader and party whip who demand that MP end a personal practice? The story of former Liberal MP Michelle Simson answers that question. She was posting all of her MP expenses online, and she was sanctioned by party leadership for refusing to end this practice. Michelle joins fellow former Liberal MP Dan McTeague, to discuss the current state of the Liberal party and how she was handled. We touch base again with the organizers of the 80+ strong United We Roll truck convoy which left Red Deer, Alberta earlier in the week and now is in Ontario. The convoy is making its way to Ottawa for a protest rally on Tuesday, to alert the federal government to the economic plight of many thousands who work in the Western Canadian energy sector and to challenge Bills C-69 and C-48. And if a parliamentary ethics commissioner finds wrongdoing what is the actual penalty? Parliamentary ethics commissioner Mario Dion has announced an investigation into whether Justin Trudeau/the PMO pressured former Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould to persuade federal prosecutors to not go forward with a criminal trial of SNC-Lavalin. Former Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Brian Peckford writes on his blog: "As usual we go through the motions, trying to maintain that such 'motions' constitute real accountability. The falsity of it all is breathtaking." - Guests: Scott Moe. Premier of Saskatchewan Blaine Higgs.

Meanwhile, the Woman who attacked Canadian Tire employees and professed loyalty to ISIS has been sentenced to 7 years in prison.

CleanBonus Interview - The investigation into the attack on actor Jussie Smollett changes trajectory, but why? | Empire star Jussie Smollett appeared on Good Morning America on Thursday and told Robin Roberts that he believed it he was attacked by two men because of his anti-Donald Trump public position. The attackers reportedly shouted racist and homophobic slogans while pouring a noxious substance over Smollett and putting a rope around his neck. But now sources close to the investigation have told CBS and CNN that the two men arrested in the connection to the attack, Nigerian brothers who are cooperating with Chicago police, have claimed that Smollett paid them for a staged attack. According to Global News, Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi told CBS Chicago they “can confirm that the information received from the individuals questioned by police earlier in the Empire case has in fact shifted the trajectory of the investigation.” This all raises a big question: why would Smollett or anyone want to stage an attack on themselves?

CleanCPC’s Andrew Scheer disbelieves Trudeau; Trudeau’s priority is Quebec over Indigenous people; Was opportunity missed to save a child? & Truck convoy on the road to Ottawa | The Roy Green Show Podcast - The PMO/SNC-Lavalin/Justin Trudeau/Jody Wilson Raybould questions continue to gain momentum and national traction. Conservative Party of Canada leader Andrew Scheer joins the show to provide the CPC perspective and assessment. An online poll published by Macleans shows 73% of Canadians say Jody Wilson-Raybould has the most credibility, and 27% say Justin Trudeau does. What is the reaction from the Indigenous community of Canada to the question all of Canada wants to know the truth about? And how are Trudeau's changing claims and his treatment of Jody Wilson-Raybould being received by the indigenous community? Calvin Helin, lawyer and son of a B.C. hereditary Chief, speaks to Roy about this. Eleven-year-old Riya Rajkumar was murdered on her 11th birthday, Valentine's Day. Her 41 year old father Roopesh Rajkumar is facing a first degree murder charge. What went wrong on Valentine's Day evening? Did police miss an opportunity to perhaps save Riya? Toronto Sun columnist Joe Warmington writes today that even police are asking themselves that question. Across Canada, people are grieving over Riya’s senseless death. The 'United We Roll' Convoy left Red Deer, Alberta, two days ago and is making its way to Ottawa. It is scheduled to arrive next Tuesday. It will be a pro-pipeline, anti-carbon tax protest which challenges Bill C-69 and C-48 – and it will be where there for the federal government to witness up close. Organizers hope more trucks will join the convoy as it approaches Ottawa. Convoy organizer’s Glen Carritt and Mark Friesen join the show from their trucks on the road, outside of Thunder Bay, Ontario. - Guests: Andrew Scheer, CPC leader Calvin Helin, son of a B.C. hereditary Chief, Lawyer, Top 40 under 40 Canada, author and public speaker; President and CEO of the Eagle Group of Companies, including the Eagle Spirit Pipeline project Joe Warmington, Toronto Sun columnist Glen Carritt.

CleanBC money laundering/public inquiry; A Western Canada political party & QC supports Trudeau; Health tourists importing superbugs | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Global News analysis reveals provinces across Canada largely fail to successfully tackle these financial crimes, with roughly three quarters of people accused going free. The conviction rate is about 27%. "It's scandalous" said forensic accountant Matt McGuire, who previously worked for FINTRAC, Canada's watchdog against money laundering. "It's quite clear the system isn't working. It's mind boggling." Roy is joined by Andrew Russel, the national online investigative journalist with Global News who covered this story. In B.C., opinion is strongly in favour of a public inquiry into organized crime and money laundering in the province. In fact, in a province-wide poll conducted by IPSOS for Global News, a B.C. money laundering public inquiry is backed by every demographic that was asked. Roy speaks with CKNW host and columnist with the Vancouver Province Mike Smyth, and later with Vice President of IPSOS Sean Simson The campaign for the October 21 federal election is clearly unofficially already underway. Two key regions in Canada for the vote are the Western provinces and Quebec. Angus Reid polling continues its review of Western Canadian attitude with its most recent polling release showing voters west of Ontario are open to a new 'Western Canada Party.' What does the poll reveal and what are the broader implications of the numbers? Leger polling in Quebec shows the Trudeau Liberals have a very comfortable lead among Quebec voters, while Andrew Scheer's Conservatives manages only to effectively come in tied with the separatist and resurgent Bloc Quebecois. What's going in Quebec? Do you have a common cold or the flu? That is the same question we find ourselves asking every year around this time. Jaston Tetro, a.k.a. “The Germ Guy,” explains how to tell the difference. And according to Global News, Measles cases tripled in Europe last year, reaching the highest it's been in a decade. Meanwhile there are concerns over superbugs being brought home to Canada by medical tourists. Jason Tetro gives his advice and thoughts on these issues. Guests: Andrew Russell, national online journalist Mike Smyth. Vancouver Province political columnist and CKNW host. Sean Simpson, Vice president of IPSOS polling Shachi Kurl.

CleanBonus Interview - Prof. Duane Bratt, on what awaits Alberta in the next few weeks | Literally any day now an election may be called, one that is only second in importance to the October 21 federal election: Premier Rachel Notley must set an Alberta election date for no later than May 31. Who will Albertans most likely vote for? Rachel Notley and the NDP for a second term? Jason Kenney and the UCP, thereby establishing an even stronger provincial firewall against the federal Liberals and their carbon tax? How will the results affect the future of pipelines delivering Alberta oil to world markets? A new book titled ‘Orange Chinook’ contains chapters written by politicians and intellectuals about what happened in 2015 to elect Notley and the NDP, and what lies ahead for Alberta in literally just weeks.

CleanCPC leader Andrew Scheer on Trudeau/SNC-Lavalin; Democracy Watch calls for investigation of PM/PMO; Murder sentences and parole for police killer? & Blackface - It is racist | The Roy Green Show Podcast - A Globe and Mail story declares anonymous sources revealed the Prime Minister’s Office attempted to interfere with the duties of former federal Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould, by pressuring her to intervene with the Public Prosecution Service of Canada and halt criminal prosecution of Montreal-based international engineering giant SNC-Lavalin, in favour of some type of remediation. Our first guest, Conservative Party of Canada leader Andrew Scheer, is demanding a parliamentary emergency meeting over the Trudeau/SNC-Lavalin allegation. And later Roy speaks with David Butt, Criminal lawyer and former prosecutor, about the available options that would permit Jody Wison-Raybould to answer the questions about any suggested interference. Meanwhile, Democracy Watch has released a letter to federal Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner Mario Dion, insisting he delegate any investigation to a provincial ethics commissioner because Dion, in their words, was “chosen” by the Trudeau cabinet without consultation with opposition parties as required by the Parliament of Canada Act. Duff Conacher, the co-founder of Democracy Watch and adjunct professor of law and political science at the University of Ottaway, joins the show. Serial killer Bruce McArthur and Quebec City mosque mass killer Alexandre Bissonnette were sentenced yesterday. Both pleaded guilty, yet McArthur received no consecutive sentences, and Bissonnette’s consecutive sentences were altered. McArthur will be eligible to request parole at age 91 and Bissonnette who was sentenced to life, will nevertheless be eligible for parole in 40 years at age 69. Many are asking, Why were there no clear-cut consecutive life sentences? Scott Newark joins the show to discuss these two cases, as well as that of Clinton Gayle. Gayle was convicted of first degree murder in the 1994 killing of Toronto police officer Todd Baylis and of attempted murder of Baylis' partner Constable Mike Leone. The murder trial judge declared Gayle killed Officer Baylis in "execution style" with a shot from short range. Gayle becomes eligible for parole in June of this year. There is a petition and national drive underway to keep him in prison for life. Scott Newark also weighs in on the news that Omar Khadr wants an Alberta youth court to declare his sentence to be expired. More incidents of wearing blackface are becoming public, following the allegation that Governor of Virginia Ralph Northam wore blackface in a law school yearbook. Governor Northam denies he is featured in the photograph but admitted to wearing blackface once while dressed as Michael Jackson for a dance competition. Today it's Canadian comedian Mark Rowswell, a.k.a. Dashan, who on admitted on Twitter that he wore blackface with his friends in high school while impersonating the band The Temptations. Rowswell says his drama teacher at the time suggested there was nothing wrong with the students wearing blackface. Guests: Andrew Scheer. Leader. Conservative Party of Canada.

CleanHumboldt Broncos father on sentencing hearing; SK Premier, lack of Ottawa fairness; NGOs want no public opinion on C-69; Evacuating the Queen post-Brexit; In Switzerland referenda have final say | The Roy Green Show Podcast - After a week of sentencing hearing for Jaskarit Singh Sidhu, the families of Humboldt Broncos now begin a 7 week wait for the judge's verdict. Roy speaks with Scott Thomas, whose son Humboldt Broncos player Evan Thomas was killed in the crash. Mr. Thomas met privately with truck driver Jaskarit Singh Sidhu last week. He shares how he felt after that experience, and what the sentencing hearing has been like for him. Western Canada does not feel it is being treated fairly. Angus Reid conducted a national poll which we spoke about with Shachi Kurl, exec director of Angus Reid last weekend. And this past Wednesday, David Akin wrote an in-depth piece on the poll for Global News: Canadians in the West More Than Those in the East Feel That Ottawa Doesn't Treat Them Fairly. Today we get a western premier’s take on this: Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan, joins the conversation with Roy Green. Vivian Krause is a researcher who revealed the money trail from U.S. entities to Canadian environmentalist Non-Governmental Organizations, to keep Alberta oil from international markets and maintaining the U.S. monopoly on Canadian oil. Now, there are reports that NGO's plan to lobby Senators to nix a cross-country tour to hear Canadians views on federal environmental legislation. So who is funding these NGO's? Vivian Krause weighs in. Reports from the U.K. media say British security services are resurrecting Cold War plans to evacuate the Queen and Royal Family from London should there be a 'hard Brexit' followed by rioting in London. British military reservists have also been placed on standby alert. Professor Alan Sked is the founder of UKIP and has been dubbed “the man, without whom, there would be no Brexit.” He offers his opinions on what has become of the movement, and on these reported preparations. And then Roy is joined by Swiss member of parliament Luzi Stamm to discuss the importance and value of referenda and what is happening in the U.K. In Switzerland several referenda are conducted annually, the results of which are constitutionally binding on the Swiss federal government. Whereas various factions in the U.K. are trying to upend the Brexit referendum decision, even though the British people voted by majority to exit the European Union.

Author Pet | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Carol and Lyle Brons are the parents of 24-year-old Dayna Brons, athletic therapist for the Humboldt Broncos who was among those killed in the horrific bus crash in Saskatchewan last year. They talk about the week-long sentencing hearing for Jaskarit Singh Sidhu in Melfort, Saskatchewan and the heartbreak of the families who lost loved ones or experienced loved ones suffering life-altering injuries. Scott Newark, former Alberta prosecutor and executive director of Canadian Police Association, speaks on the seven week wait for Jaskarit Singh Sidhu’s sentence to be delivered. Why put the families through two months of emotionally being left on hold? Singh Sidhu will likely be deported as well, but he will have direct say in when that happens. Stephen Laskowski, President of the Canadian Trucking Alliance, discusses Canada's trucking industry as Canada watches the Humboldt Broncos crash sentencing. What is the horror of that tragedy signaling to Canada's trucking industry? What needs to be done in terms of licensing and regulations, especially when it comes to companies that are ignoring safety standards? This week, Bruce McArthur pleaded guilty to eight counts of first-degree murder in connection with a decade of homicides tied to Toronto’s gay village.

CleanCanada resettles world's largest number of refugees; Yellow Vest organizer speaks to YV movement/truck convoy; UWO Prof Salim Mansur warns of U.N. agenda; Humboldt Broncos parents prepare for truck driver sentencing; Challenging Canada's justice/prison | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Canada has taken the lead in refugee settlement for the first time in 72 years, according to new data compiled by a researcher at the University of Calgary. In 2018, Canada received more planned refugees than any other country. Is it fair that Canada is shouldering so much of the worldwide refugee resettlement burden? We’ve been hearing about them for weeks now – the Yellow Vest protesters. Who are they? We know the movement started in France in response to fuel tax hikes, but what message is behind the movement that has established itself in Canada? Roy speaks with Mark Friesen, a Yellow Vest organizer from Saskatchewan, to get an idea of what the movement in Canada is all about. Mark is also an organizer of the truck convoy that is planning to travel from Alberta to Ottawa to protest numerous policies of the Trudeau government. And then, Roy is joined by a University of Western Ontario professor who says northern countries are under pressure from the United Nations Agenda on Social Development, which includes the Compact on Migration. Professor Salim Mansur wrote a column in the American Thinker entitled ‘Justin Trudeau's Canada Embraces a World Without Borders’. Lyle and Carol Brons are the parents of the Humboldt Broncos’ athletic therapist Dayna Brons, who lost her life in the horrific bus crash last April. They join Roy to weigh in on the five days of sentencing hearings for Jaskarit Singh Sidhu that are scheduled to begin tomorrow. Singh Sidhu has pleaded guilty to all criminal charges related to the deaths and injuries on the Broncos team bus, which was struck by the massive semi-truck he was driving. We often discuss the perpetrators of crime in Canada, but what about the victims? Roy is joined by a pair of guests to discuss what victims of crime face when dealing with the justice system and how it both works and doesn’t work. When Joe Wamback’s son Jonathan was 15 years old, he was horribly beaten by a gang in a park directly across from the family home in Newmarket, Ontario. Since then, Joe and his wife Lozanne have devoted their lives to working with and for victims of crime. In 2012, Joe walked across Canada to raise awareness of crime and victims. He’s appeared before parliament and the Senate, and has organized events across Canada for crime victims.

CleanBonus Podcast - Being Homeless in Canada | The Roy Green Show - Canada’s vulnerable homeless population is at risk during the bitterly cold winter months and quite often, their voices go unheard in the national conversation. This winter a Cambridge, Ontario resident is travelling across Ontario and living outdoors in 13 different cities across the province.

Stephen Buffalo, President and CEO of the Indian Resource Council, ex 58% of Canadians consider absence of new pipeline capacity in Canada a national crisis. 40% do not. There are regional divisions of course.

And how will these events affect Prime Minister Trudeau and Premier Horgan? They both have enthusiastically tied their flags to the project. And what should we expect from the upcoming by-election in Burnaby for federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh. Could Singh lose and throw the party into leadership chaos? Tuesday's vote in the British parliament could sink the government of Prime Minister Theresa May and possibly lead to a general election and a repeat of the Brexit referendum. Some of May's own Conservative MPs and the speaker of the British parliament have turned on her. Canada is meanwhile holding informal trade talks with the U.K. which would become formal if Britain exits the EU at the end of March. A B.C. couple is criminally charged after hog-tying a man they accuse of trying to lure their 13-year-old daughter into sex. Former Alberta Prosecutor Scott Newark weighs in on the story, and shares his experience working with the Toronto Sex Crimes division of the Toronto police. And then we turn our attention to Canada's new drunk driving law. Yesterday Toronto criminal lawyer Ari Goldkind defended police having the right to demand a breathalyzer at your home up to two hours after you're alleged to have driven. If you drove sober, had a drink or two in the two hours after you arrived home and a breathalyzer is required by law, you could find yourself charged with DUI.

The families of all who lost their lives or were injured in the collision will now be spared a trial, which Sidhu's lawyer suggests is what Sidhu wanted. Roy talks to Scott Thomas, a father who lost his son in the crash. Later, Roy asks Scott Newark what sentence might Jaskarit Singh Sidhu expect, and how much influence will Victims’ Impact Statements might have on the sentencing? Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said nothing of significance about Canada’s oil industry and energy sector, while in Regina earlier in the week. He also said nothing reassuring to foreign investors who have written to him, urging him to support the oil sands. All the while, there remains the issue of the rights of First Nations, regarding pipeline construction and natural resources development. Our guest argues that the planned convoy of trucks from Red Deer, Alberta, to Ottawa, to deliver a noisy protest against federal policies and legislation placed in the way of pipelines is the wrong approach. Roy speaks with Ken Coates, to find out why he believes there should instead be a massive convoy of tanker trucks, filled to the brim with oil, making their way to Alberta and deliver that oil to Vancouver. Canada granted asylum to a Saudi teen who fled alleged family abuse. The teen's claim is she is being abused by her family and if she had been forced to return, she would have been killed.

Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe joins the program for a year-end look at the Carbon tax, Western Canada’s energy sector, the Trudeau government. And then Premier Moe discusses the coming court case in which Saskatchewan will challenge whether the federal government has the constitutional right to impose a tax over the specific objections of a directly affected provincial government. With a national election just 10 months away, Roy talks with President and CEO of Ipsos Darrell Bricker, to find out what Ipsos has heard from Canadians. How are Trudeau and the federal Liberals holding up, in the public’s opinion? A massive truck convoy is in the works, to travel from Western Canada to Ottawa as a visible and audible expression of Western frustration with the Trudeau government's indifference for the energy industry. In May of 2009 Bela Kosoian was a University of Montreal law student, and a multilingual immigrant from the former Soviet Union. Kosoian failed to hold the handrail on an escalator in Montreal, and was challenged by a Montreal police officer. When she questioned why the officer was aggressive with her, she was confronted by a second officer at the bottom of the escalator. Bela was handcuffed, arrested and charged with ignoring a pictogram which told her to hold onto the escalator hand rail. The case has wound its way through Quebec courts over 9 years, including the Court of Appeal. Now the Supreme Court of Canada has agreed to hear the case. As with any Supreme Court decision, the impact will be nation-wide.

CleanSaskatchewan Premier Scott Moe's message to Trudeau; The future of Europe and the populist movements; The long-range picture for Alberta | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Roy talked with a clearly frustrated and angry Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan. The Premier had learned that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had stated in a year-end interview that “there is no project on the table” for resuming the Energy East pipeline. The Prime Minister when on to say that “there is clarity under the current approach, there is no support for a pipeline through Quebec.” Obviously, this sentiment does not sit well with many people, as it seems like Quebec makes the decision as far as Canada’s Prime Minister is concerned. Roy plays back his conversation with Premier Moe. The “Gilets Jaunes,” or “Yellow Vests,” continue to protest in France for the fifth weekend in a row. The protests have spread to Belgium and the Netherlands, and there is talk of unrest growing in Austria and perhaps Germany as well as the U.K. Professor Cheryl Benard is the President of ARCH International, a Washington-based non-profit research and advocacy organization with a presence in Iraq, she joins Roy to explain what is happening in Europe. Then, Professor Benard discusses the law Donald Trump has signed to protect Christians in Iraq and Syria, and MP Michelle Rempel addresses what Canada is doing for the threatened Yazidi people in Iraq. In 2001, the so-called Alberta “Firewall Letter” was delivered to then Premier Ralph Klein, urging him to stand up for Alberta against Ottawa and rid of Alberta of many federal connections. One of the letter’s signatories, Dr. Ted Morton, joins us to talk about the current state of affairs in Alberta, and Canada as a whole. Dr. David Thompson is a retired Manitoba veterinarian and a strong supporter of the Roy Green Show. Last week he reached his 100th birthday, and Roy invited him on the show to celebrate.

CleanScott Moe reminds Trudeau he works for Canada, not just Quebec; Police may administer breathalyzer without suspicion; SFU Prof. Scott Newark on Omar Khadr, & Michael Rafferty | The Roy Green Show Podcast - Next Tuesday new federal legislation will allow police to demand a breath sample from a motorist even if there is no suspicion of drinking and driving. Is this a violation of constitutional rights? The Canadian Civil Liberties Association worries the legislation will be discriminatory toward minorities. Our guest Richard Lawhern, Ph.D. Director of Research with the Alliance for the Treatment of Intractable Pain, says “There are several provable falsehoods in” in a new article from U of T magazine, ‘How The Medical System is Trying to Wean Patients Off Opioids.’ Most blatantly false is the stated position that physicians over-prescribing to their patients is in any way even related to significant elevation risk for opioid addiction or mortality. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Energy East will never proceed because “there is no support for a pipeline through Quebec.” Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe joins the show, to remind Trudeau that he is Prime Minister all Canada’s Provinces and Territories, not just Quebec. Omar Khadr is seeking changes in his bail conditions. Why didn't Khadr's lawyers appeal for full parole in 2015? Scott Newark says that Khadr was eligible for it at the time. Then, Scott Newark takes on Michael Rafferty’s transference to a medium security prison.

Her article was ‘Women need to fight Trudeau's gender insults toward men’ and she joins Roy to expand on it. Internationally recognized cyber security and digital forensics expert Daniel Tobok of Cytelligence Inc. weighs in on the issue of Huawei. The company is not just in the news because of the arrest of the company's CFO in Canada. Global News reports that former Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the U.S. has encouraged western allies "to essentially push Huwei out of the emerging 5G network.” He added “my personal view is that that is something western countries should be doing in terms of our long-term security issues." And then Roy speaks with Scott Newark, on the political and legal side of the Huawei issue. China's state media lashes out at Canada over arrest of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou and warns Canada of "serious consequences" with the Chinese government summoning Canadian Ambassador John McCallum. Roy talks to Canadians about the possibility of Alberta separating, following the major response to Roy's interview with Lawrence Solomon. He also replays his interview with Solomon, concerning his Financial Post column 'If Alberta turns separatist, the Rest of Canada is in big trouble.' Adam Schiff, Democrat member of Congress is quoted as saying "There's a very real prospect that on the Day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department may indict him. That he may be the first president in quite some time to face the very real prospect of jail time." AND Representative Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said today that it would "certainly" be an impeachable offence if it's proven that President Trump directed illegal payments during his campaign."

CleanAlbertan separation is no joke; Tensions at the First Ministers’ conference; Strong objections to the U.N. Compact for Migration yet Canada will sign | The Roy Green Show Podcast There are growing tensions in Montreal at the First Ministers’ conference. Brian Peckford, the former Newfoundland & Labrador Premier, gives us his view of the bitterness which exists between Ottawa and provincial capitals today. Is this the way things have always been? Later, Lawrence Solomon joins Roy to discuss what would happen if Alberta turned separatist. In a Financial Post column, Solomon argues that Alberta would have great leverage over the rest of Canada as an independent nation, regardless of being landlocked. The mood going in to the First Ministers’ conference in Montreal was not particularly positive. Multiple provinces challenged the Trudeau government on issues such as carbon tax and the lack of a proper plan for Canada's tremendous energy resources. Bill C-69 a particularly contentious issue. Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan, tells Roy his takeaway from the conference. An increasing number of nations are refusing to ratify the U.N. Compact for global migration, including the United States, Australia, Austria, Hungary and Poland. Canada will sign the compact. Conservative Party leader Andrew Scheer has spoken out against it. Maxime Bernier, founder and leader of the People’s Party of Canada, is also outspokenly against the compact, and he tells us why. And then Roy speaks with Professor Salim Mansur of the University of Western Ontario, who has received a great deal of attention for his views about the Compact for migration. He is concerned that Canada will become part of a borderless 21st Century world under U.N. control in which there will be no room for a free press or freedom of speech. Meanwhile, Switzerland has decided it too will not ratify the U.N. Compact on Migration. The country was supportive and was prepared to sign on, but now will instead wait for the outcome of the debates on the issue in the Swiss parliament. Luzi Stamm, Member of the Swiss parliament for the Swiss People’s Party, explains why there was this change of heart. Guests: Brian Peckford, former Premier of Newfoundland & Labrador Lawrence Solomon, Financial Post columnist Scott Moe, Premier of Saskatchewan Maxime Bernier, leader of the People’s Party of Canada Professor Salim Mansur, of the University of Western Ontario Luzi Stamm, Member of the Swiss parliament for the Swiss People’s Party | 12/8/2018 | Free | View in iTunes |

Do police have proper and scientific methods to determine someone is driving high? Our guest says absolutely not. Police Drug Recognition Experts may be guessing, at best, and changing the lives of innocent people through unscientific testing. Since the revelations about the horrendous acts perpetrated in the name of hazing at St. Michael’s private school in Toronto, Canadians have been turning their focus again to bullying. But our guest says that this alone is not the answer, but that the focus should be on the root cause: teaching people to treat one another with respect. Carol Todd, mother of Amanda Todd and founder of the Amanda Todd Legacy Society, speaks to this. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police has announced that much more money than the $100 million already set aside will be needed to settle the class action lawsuit brought against the force by women officers and civilian employees for sexual harassment and assault.

Prior to founding Whitecap Resources Inc in 2008, Fagerheim was President and Chief Executive Officer and a Director of Cadence Energy Inc, a public oil and gas company. He says "if the people of Canada think for one moment that we can only have Canadian investors and hope to drive any type of business going forward, they are absolutely, massively mistaken." In his fiscal update federal Minister of Finance Bill Morneau has committed roughly $600 million in tax credits and incentives over five years for Canadian media organizations facing significant financial challenges. Is this move protecting media availability or is it an attempt to buy favourable coverage for Justin Trudeau's government heading toward the federal election? Roy has assembled a panel of media and political experts to debate and discuss the pros and the cons. Back-to-Work legislation passed the house of commons early this morning. Today the Senate will debate it before ratifying, and the Labour and the NDP are adamantly opposed. How much damage will this do to Truduea’s relationship with unions? The clerk Craig James and Sargent-at-Arms Gary Lenz were arrested and perp-walked out of the B.C. Legislature. They are now the subjects of an RCMP investigation.
