What is the future of the NDP Party and Conservative Party? Is Pierre Poilievre the reason the Conservatives lost the 2025 Canada Election? No Conservative is admitting Pierre's failure openly, and it may not be until 2026 that their leader is even able to re-enter the political arena. So, what could Conservatives do now? Also, the NDP Party must find a new leader after Jagmeet Singh's resignation. Lots of upheaval in Canada's post-2025 Election landscape, so let's talk about it. In Episode 133 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, Bill discusses the aftermath of Canada's recent election, which resulted in a Liberal minority government led by Mark Carney. He analyzes the reactions from various political parties, particularly the Conservative Party and the NDP, highlighting the challenges they face moving forward. Kelly emphasizes the importance of leadership and the need for both parties to reevaluate their strategies to remain relevant in Canadian politics. He also touches on the implications of the election results for future governance in Canada.Become a YouTube channel member to hear Bill's stories and life lessons from 50+ years as a broadcast journalist in his members-only series, MORAL OF THE STORY: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeUbzckOLocFzNeY1D72iCA/joinDon't forget to like, follow and subscribe across our channels!

In the final stretch of the Canada Election 2025, the Conservative Party seems to have taken a drastic turn in their campaign strategy, namely by excluding any mention of their leader from recent advertising altogether. If Pierre Poilievre manages to blow his former 21-point lead and lose the race, and should the Party, hypothetically, then want to vote in a new leader because of it… who would be the frontrunners? Let's talk about it, as well as the evolution of Canada's housing crisis, recorded on the eve of Canada's 2025 general election. In Episode 131 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, host Bill Kelly discusses the current Canadian election landscape, focusing on the housing crisis, political advertising strategies, and the challenges faced by the Conservative Party. He emphasizes the need for cooperation among federal, provincial, and municipal governments to address housing affordability and reflects on the shifting dynamics of political campaigns. The conversation also touches on leadership challenges within the Conservative Party and the potential for change in Canadian politics as the election approaches.Become a YouTube channel member to hear Bill's stories and life lessons from 50+ years as a broadcast journalist in his members-only series, MORAL OF THE STORY: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeUbzckOLocFzNeY1D72iCA/joinDon't forget to like, follow and subscribe across our channels!

Pierre Poilievre's doomsday prophecies about Canada's future should the pollsters be correct and he loses the Canada Election 2025 race to be Prime Minister are… interesting. Should we take them seriously, and for that matter, should we take some Conservative's threats of Western separation seriously? Bill reflects on these questions and reads parts of a Beaverton article that satirizes some major themes that have arisen during Poilievre's campaign. In Episode 130 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, the host discusses the significance of voting in the Canadian election, the dynamics of political campaigns, and the influence of media and satire in shaping public perception. The conversation highlights the importance of critical thinking in evaluating political rhetoric and encourages active participation in democracy.Become a channel member to unlock early access to new content as well as exclusive members-only videos such as Bill's new segment, Moral of the Story, where he recounts his life lessons and personal stories about life as a broadcast journalist spanning industries like sports, music, entertainment and politics.Become a channel member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeUbzckOLocFzNeY1D72iCA/joinDon't forget to like, follow and subscribe across our channels!

Did Justin Trudeau write PM Mark Carney's new budget and policy plan? (If you want to talk cr@p about Justin Trudeau, lying isn't necessary…) Did Mark Carney repeal his removal of the carbon tax, the second he took office? (Hint: no). We've never had more information at our fingertips, and multiple foreign governments are weaponizing that reality in order to sway public opinion and interfere with the results of the 2025 Canadian Election (just like during the Conservative leadership race). So, how do we tell propaganda from verifiable information? First, we need to check ourselves and our own confirmation bias. In Episode 127 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, host Bill Kelly discusses the critical role of information and disinformation in shaping public opinion during Canada's Election 2025. He highlights the challenges of distinguishing between accurate information and misinformation, particularly in the context of foreign interference. The conversation delves into the importance of empathy in political discourse and the need for critical thinking among citizens to navigate the complexities of modern democracy.

He wants Canada's natural resources and reaffirmed that he plans on making us the 51st state last week.

He emphasizes the importance of strong leadership in maintaining Canada's natural resources and the need for civic engagement through voting.

Conservative pundits and party leader Pierre Poilievre claim that media outlets like CBC are harsher on him and his team during journalistic questioning, compared to their treatment of PM Mark Carney. Is this true? What does the data say? We'll also talk about independent journalist Rachel Gilmore's experience of censorship, and her opinion on the matter of media bias.
