Bitcoin advocate, entrepreneur, and Albertan patriot Dave Bradley joins me for a belated look at the G-7, Albertan independence and how the rush for pristine collateral is the race against time that Davos and City of London are working so hard to avoid going against their plans for a digitized neo-feudal world.Show Notes:Dave on XThe Bitcoin RodeoTom on XTom on Patreon

One of the Canadian godfathers of AI launches a non-profit, with some 40-million dollars in funding, to protect people from the technology he pioneered. A Manitoba chief is urging anyone who hasn't left his community yet to flee the out-of-control blaze that's approaching -- before it's too late.On the eve of a potential doubling of tariffs, an Ontario mayor braces everyone who works at the local steel plant -- and everyone in the city who doesn't -- for extreme economic pain. A Montreal tour guide shares the story behind a new Canada Post stamp depicting a 1977 police raid on one of the city's most historic gay bars -- and the fight for equal rights that followed. He's an Albertan, and he works at a big hockey bar -- but despite his Canadian pride, a Calgary Flames fan tells us he just can't bring himself to cheer for the Edmonton Oilers. Residents of a UK community resort to some very colourful -- and disproportionately dramatic -- language, when a section of local road is painted red for safety. As It Happens, the Tuesday Edition. Radio that figures the problem is just a pigment of their imagination.

We talk about the election & Albertan and American oil policy. Kristen Pue of the Pullback Podcast interviews refugee expert Evan Easton-Calabria about climate migration and displacement.

Today, we're looking at Prime Minister Mark Carney's expected first in-person meeting with President Donald Trump, following the U.S. leader's continued comments about making Canada the 51st state during an interview with NBC's Meet The Press this past weekend. Plus, one in four Albertans identify themselves as Albertan first and Canadian second, according to a new poll. Will another Liberal victory drive even more Albertans to see themselves as Alberta firsters? And finally, Canada has experienced another decline in its freedom rankings, this time for press freedom — something that isn't likely to come as a surprise to regular Rebel News viewers, given the way the government treats independent press outlets.

The ‘bone collector' caterpillar covers itself with body partsIt's like something from a horror movie. A creeping, carnivorous creature that in a macabre attempt at disguise and protection, covers itself with the dismembered remains of dead insects. This super-rare caterpillar is one of the strangest insects in the world. It lives on spider webs inside of trees and rock crevices in a 15 square kilometre radius on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu. Daniel Rubinoff, from the University of Hawaii Insect Museum, found about 62 of these caterpillars over the past 20 years. Their research was published in the journal Science. If a dolphin pees in the water, does anybody know it?Researchers observing river dolphins in Brazil were first surprised to see the animals turning on their backs and urinating into the air, and then further amazed to see other dolphins sampling the falling stream. The Canadian and Brazilian team, led by Claryana Araújo-Wang from the CetAsia Research Group, believe this aerial urination may be a way to communicate dominance among males. The research was published in the journal Behavioural Processes.How the snowball Earth made life bloom on our planet700 million years ago our planet was frozen from pole to pole during a period known as snowball Earth. Glaciers at that time scoured deep into the continents below like a giant bulldozer, grinding the rock into fine sediments. In a new study in the journal Geology, scientists found that as the glaciers melted, a lot of that loose material was injected very rapidly into the oceans. Branden Murphy, from St. Francis Xavier University, said this chemical cocktail fertilized the oceans, and set the stage for rise of multicellular complex life on Earth.  How a team of microbiologists use cars to sample air across the countryUnderstanding the distribution of bacteria that might be a concern for human or animal health across an entire country is a huge job. But a team from Laval used a very clever shortcut to gather their data. They collected car air filters from vehicles across the nation, and looked in them to see what they sucked up. They found regional differences in the antimicrobial resistance genes specific to the agricultural activities and environmental factors at each location. Paul George, from Laval University, was the lead researcher on the study published in the journal Environmental DNA.Albertan obsidian artifacts are the end point of a widespread Indigenous trade networkObsidian — volcanic glass used to make super-sharp tools — is found as artifacts from chips to blades to arrowheads at hundreds of sites across the Rockies of Alberta and B.C., dating back thousands of years. However, there are no volcanos in the area so archaeologists are using this volcanic glass to chart Indigenous trade routes through North America. New research, led by Timothy Allan of Ember Archeology, has traced the obsidian's point of origin to a site nearly 1,000 kilometres away, suggesting the material travelled over long distances and passed through many hands. The research was published in the Journal of Field Archaeology.Do his gills ring a bell? Fish can recognize humansScientists at a Mediterranean research station kept noticing that particular fish would follow them around whenever they would try and do experiments. To find out if the fish were actually capable of recognizing individual humans, a team from the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Germany decided to turn this annoying behaviour into a scientific experiment. They found that the fish were indeed capable of remembering which humans had shared tasty treats in the past. The research was published in the journal Biology Letters.

Today, we're looking at Premier Danielle Smith weighing in on the topic of Albertan independence as a recent push for the province to separate has been picking up more support. Plus, Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet accused Prime Minister Mark Carney of copying the Conservatives policies, a talking point that has been circulating in political circles following the Liberals shifts on several policies, including the party's flagship carbon tax. And finally, with U.S. President Donald Trump declaring April 2 “Liberation Day” as he prepares to unveil a sweeping set of tariffs on international goods, Pierre Poilievre has pledged a Conservative government would reinvest money collected from tariffs into modernizing and expanding Canada's military.

What Alberta has deemed “common sense legislation” will be introduced as part of the Spring sitting of the Alberta legislature. An Albertan minister has resigned following the controversy between Premier Danielle Smith and Alberta Health Services. A different minister is warning that the federal government may run off the tracks with their high-speed rail, similar to what happened to the Calgary Green Line LRT. Also, a billboard urging Albertans to join the United States has sparked some controversy. These stories and more on The Alberta Roundup with Isaac Lamoureux! Learn more about your ad choices.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps and Canadian Premier League chat. Our extensive interview with Axel Schuster in the last episode certainly produced a lot of chatter and we unpack some of what the Whitecaps CEO told us in this episode around the search for a new coach, the search for new owners, the search for new players, and more.

Almost every province has an identity. Whether you're an Albertan, a Quebecer, or a Newfoundlander, identifying with your province comes a lot easier for some. But what about here in Ontario? How often do you hear anyone refer to themselves as an "Ontarian"?

This episode originally aired on August 10, 2020: This week on Terra Informa, Sonak Patel and Skylar Lipman, joined by Morrigan Simpson-Marran from the Pembina Institute and Daniel Schiffner from the University of Alberta, discuss orphan wells in Alberta.The evidence of oil and gas development on Alberta's landscape appears in various forms across the province. Much of oil and gas extraction requires drilling a well into the ground to reach subterranean fossil fuels. Under provincial regulations, these wells are supposed to be reclaimed once they reach the end of their productive lifespan. But in some cases, reclamation doesn't happen, leaving a substantial number of wells dotted across the Albertan landscape.How many orphaned wells are there in Alberta? How does a well become 'orphaned', and why are they a problem? We find out the answers to these questions in this week's episode.Download program log here. ★ Support this podcast ★

In 2022, a convoy of truckers angry with COVID-19 measures staged an 18-day blockade, shutting down a busy border crossing with the U.S. in Coutts, Alberta. It ended with the RCMP arresting 13 protesters and finding a stockpile of guns, ammunition and pipe bombs.Now, two men are standing trial for possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and conspiracy to commit murder in connection with their involvement with the blockade. The prosecution says the two men believed they were preparing for “war”.Bill Graveland with the Canadian Press has been covering it from the beginning and takes us through the details of the trial so far, and the lasting impact that the blockade has had on a tiny southern Albertan community.For transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Inspired by the energy, the soul and the message of classic ska, The Slackers have truly become legends themselves over the past 33 years.  They first came together in New York City back in the early '90s, and studied at the feet of the masters, including members of Jamaican ska originators the Skatalites, who had relocated to the States.  The Slackers rose to prominence alongside a wave of ska-oriented artists who came to fame in that decade, in what became known as "Third Wave Ska".  However, long after Third Wave hitmakers like The Mighty Mighty Bosstones had sort of faded away, The Slackers remained true to their roots, and have continued to craft vibrant, original and important music for the past 33 years and counting.  Lead singer/ lyricist/ multi-instrumentalist Vic Ruggiero and sax player David Hillyard have been doing this a long time. So, it's remarkable how much freshness and sense of purpose they perpetually bring to everything they do.    The band's now legendary series of livestream concerts from New York during the early days of the pandemic are a great example of how they continue to lead the musical charge with imagination, originality and a sense of community. That run of livestreams eventually led to the Billboard chart-topping album Don't Let the Sunlight Fool Ya, along with a series of reissues of their past discography via Pirates Press Records – also home to punk and ska luminaries like Rancid, the Aggrolites, and Subhumans.  Long after the days of those global livestreams, The Slackers continue to connect globally with fans across the world. Alberta is a shining example of this. The band is very well-loved here, and both Vic and David have plugged into the scene here for music projects of their own, performing and/or recording with Albertan luminaries like Jory Kinjo and Audrey Ochoa. But there hadn't been a proper Slackers tour through Alberta in seven years! At least, not until June of 2024, when they played sold-out shows in Edmonton and Calgary- which represented the last of the tour dates they had to postpone back in 2020.    Befor playing those shows though, they kicked off their Alberta tour with a stop at CKUA studios for this epiosde of Hidden Track Stories!  They shared an insightful, fun, heartfelt conversation about their roots, their latest record, and what drives them to create meaningful music about... stuff.  The Hidden Track Podcast is made possible by the generosity of our donour community.

On today's show: nearly one year since the last Alberta election, there's new polling data on how Albertan's feel about the UCP and the provincial NDP; we hear about a new incentive program for secondary suites, and the role it could play in addressing the housing crisis; a historic piece of jewelry once displayed at the National Gallery in Ottawa has turned up in a basement archive south of Calgary. We speak with the craft historian who discovered it.

An unlikely cycling revolution is happening in one of the coldest big cities on the planet: Edmonton, Alberta. Despite freezing temps, lots of sprawl, big trucks and an economy built on pulling oil out of the Albertan tar sands, the Western Canadian city is in the midst of a four-year, $100 million CAD investment in active transportation that will connect far-flung neighborhoods with a network of safe, high-quality, protected bike lanes. Many of these bike lanes will even get priority over roads for cars when it comes to snow removal. We traveled to the home of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers to attend the Winter Cycling Congress, where we talked with the people pushing for this transformation, including the city's former mayor, Don Iveson. Plus, hear our appearance on drive-time radio in the heart of oil country. *** Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive access to ad-free versions of all our episodes, exclusive bonus content and stickers. *** This episode was sponsored by Bullmoose Soft Goods and Cleverhood.

After more than a decade, the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project (TMX) has finally been completed. One of the country's biggest infrastructure projects is seen as a major win for Albertan oil producers, with nearly 600,000 extra barrels shipped daily, ready for international buyers.But the future ownership of the pipeline remains up in the air. Many of the issues and questions that delayed the project – concerns over its safety and the environment, fights over Indigenous land rights, long-term economic risks – remain.Jeffrey Jones, The Globe's sustainable finance reporter, explains the ballooning costs of the TMX and why one of Canada's top exports is creating tension with its future climate targets.Questions?

In this video interview, Marc Carnes, CEO of Alberta-based radio station CKUA, discusses the financial situation of the station and efforts to raise money to keep it alive. On April 17, Carnes addressed the CKUA community with an update about CKUA's future. He talks about his recent message, how much money needs to be raised, fundraising efforts, the history of the station, the importance of the station to the music and arts and cultural community, its reach, and the importance of music in society. Here was his full message: I'm CKUA CEO Marc Carnes, and I'm addressing you today because CKUA needs your help. There's no other way to say it: We must raise $3 million by September 30. Without it, CKUA's cash reserves will be depleted, and we will be forced to shut down after 96 years of serving Albertan—and honourary Albertans—like you. This news may shock you, but if you've read any headlines lately, it's no secret that the music, arts, and culture sectors have never fully recovered from the pandemic. It's also no secret that the commercial broadcasting sector continues to struggle. Many of our independent, donor-supported public radio peers in the United States are in the same boat. This is not happening because of a lack of success. CKUA audiences have been growing and diversifying steadily over the past five years. Our fundraising revenues have been steady at a time when many charities and cultural organizations are struggling. Our advertising sales have been steady at a time when traditional media advertising has plummeted in recent years. In an economy where charitable dollars are tight and advertising-based traditional media is struggling, we are bucking the trend. This speaks to the value people place on our service and what it means to them. What's more, we do all of this without the government footing the bill for us. But CKUA is not immune to the challenges faced by so many. Like many households and businesses, inflationary pressures have been increasingly difficult over the last 18 months. Borrowing rates have doubled. Utility costs have skyrocketed. Capital maintenance of our vast and complex technical systems has become more expensive than ever. This, coupled with ever-changing and new federal regulations, has been a lot for CKUA to absorb in a short time. As the owner of the Alberta Hotel, our broadcast centre, CKUA has also felt the effects of record-high, post-pandemic commercial real estate vacancies in downtown Edmonton. 18 months ago, every square foot of our building was spoken for. Last summer, the building was half empty, and revenues had almost completely disappeared after our main tenant became insolvent. Just 18 months ago, our budgets were balanced. Today, a perfect storm is threatening our future, a mere three and a half years before our centennial. Because of these factors, the sound of Alberta is at risk of going silent. When we saw CKUA's new reality unfolding, we took immediate action. We cut and deferred as many expenses as possible while maintaining the operations our listeners generously support with charitable donations. We worked with real estate professionals and developed scenarios for how to fill Alberta Hotel with paying tenants, given the current market. We sought to collaborate with the provincial and federal governments for financial help. And we developed a plan to diversify our fundraising revenues through major gift and legacy giving leading up to our centennial in 2027. All of these measures take time. But time is not on our side. As a non-profit, CKUA has always been a lean, mean machine for the size of our 24/7 province-wide operation. That is even more true today. We're doing more with less, and that's thanks to our incredible team, whose dedication and persistence in the face of these challenges inspire me every day. What's more, they are doing amazing, creative work that is being recognized and sought out by more people. They have every reason to be proud. As I am of them. We've also found some success in filling our building and are negotiating with several new tenants. But the high interest rate on our loan is still dogging us, and the revenue from these potential new tenants won't come online for several months. Disappointingly, after a year of conversations, the provincial and federal governments have yet to step up. We continue our conversations with the provincial government, driving home our role in telling a piece of Alberta's story around the globe. Since our humble beginnings in 1927 as Canada's first public broadcaster, we have been there for Albertans. Today, we give a province-wide platform to our artists and our storytellers, filling the growing hole left by national media and the loss of local independents. As of yesterday, the federal and provincial government budgets have come and gone, and we have received no indication that financial help is coming. Despite hundreds of millions of dollars in new money for our national public broadcaster and relief for privately owned media companies in their time of need, Alberta's broadcasting and cultural gem has been left out. And, CKUA isn't just a broadcasting investment—it's a heritage investment. Our historical record collection is one of the finest in North America—priceless, in fact. As Canada's first public broadcaster, we are the blueprint for all public and community broadcasters across Canada. For hundreds of thousands of artists and listeners in communities across the country and around the world, CKUA is a big part of what it means to be Albertan. We'll keep talking with both governments because we know CKUA is an important part of Alberta's cultural past, present, and future. But we cannot wait any longer for them. The time is now for the community to jump into action. We are the sound of Alberta. For over 96 years, we have faithfully met the needs of our community to be informed, inspired, and connected with people who share the same passions and values. We are a station of firsts—the first station in Canada to broadcast a football game, the first to stream its programming online, and the first to showcase incredible artists like k.d. lang, Jann Arden, and Corb Lund to the world. But our success isn't just in the past. Last year, our audience grew by 13%, and more than 10% over the last 5 years. This has outpaced the commercial radio sector in Alberta and even the donorsupported public radio sector in the United States where our business model most closely aligns. However, the truth remains: We provide a service anyone can access and enjoy anywhere. Since public airwaves are free, we can't automatically pass on our cost increases to our customers as most businesses can. Nor can we wait any longer for the government to come through. We must crowdsource. The only thing we can rely on is the generosity and power of the CKUA listening community. We must do what we did valiantly in 1997 when the Government of Alberta decommissioned us. We must show up in record numbers and show the world what the CKUA community means to so many—THAT collective voice IS the sound of Alberta. I can't be more perfectly clear: Advertising revenues do not fund CKUA. The government has yet to come to the table. This is about you. Only YOU can save CKUA. I've spent a lot of time talking about our storied past and our current state. Today's address isn't about what was, or what is. Today is about what can be. We have an incredible community of listeners and champions who believe wholeheartedly in what we do and what it means to so many. I know we can get there, together. Our monthly audience reach has grown to over 470,000 Albertans alone. Of those, an estimated 100,000 are regular listeners. Of those, a little more than 10,000 donate to support CKUA to the tune of nearly $4 million a year. The math is right in front of us. It is within your power and that of your fellow listeners to make all the difference. So the question is: What does CKUA mean to you? How much does 365 days of CKUA, a unique and invaluable part of your life, mean to you? Is it a family outing to an annual festival? A concert at your local arena? Is it the same amount as a subscription service based halfway around the world and in no way connected to your community? Or is CKUA, and the community it creates, something more meaningful and substantial than an algorithm? I'm asking you directly: If you listen and do not donate to CKUA, The Time Is Now to get in the game because only you can protect CKUA. You can't count on someone else to do it for you. The time is now to step up. It's time to step up and protect the sound of Alberta. We have a plan. We must raise $3 million by September 30 to weather the perfect storm. In the coming weeks and months, we will also appeal to individual donors and continue calling on the government to do its part. The first step is right now. Every year in April, we launch our spring on-air fundraising campaign. This year, it starts Friday, April 19. Over those 10 days, our goal is to raise the first $775,000 towards our $3 million goal. We absolutely have to surpass that goal—we have to crush it. The more we raise in those first 10 days, the better the momentum and the better the story to tell as we ask donors, community members, and the government to invest in our future. And then, over the coming five years, we will launch a centennial fundraising campaign that will help build an endowment and contribute to sustainable funding for CKUA's second century. But CKUA's future starts today. The Time Is Now. You can start by going to CKUA.com and becoming a recurring annual or monthly donor, right now. Thank you. And thank you for your support of CKUA—one of Canada's true cultural treasures. Mario Toneguzzi Mario Toneguzzi is Managing Editor of Canada's Podcast.

Another wild week in Alberta politics, as Premier Danielle Smith's government introduces sweeping changes to how city and town councils are elected, operate, and are held accountable. The UCP's Bill 20 opens the door for municipal political parties, restores union and corporate donations, and empowers the province to remove elected councillors (when it's "in the public interest"). Question is, are the changes good or bad for democracy? What do they mean for the average Albertan? Back by popular demand...it's our Group Chat Round Table!  2:10 | Jenny Adams, Sarah Hamilton, and Jarrett Campbell take on municipal political parties (10:00), the return of union and corporate donations (26:05), the power to fire city councillors (29:00), Bill 18 - the Provincial Priorities Act (31:10), Pierre Poilievre's roadside photo op (34:00), and the Alberta NDP leadership race (48:30).  57:00 | Gabriel sounds off on 15 Minute Cities, James is nervous about the feds selling TMX, and Angela has a message for Alberta's duly-elected mayors and councillors.

The Rural Alberta Advantage's much-anticipated October 2023 album The Rise & the Fall - their first in a half-dozen years - is once again chock full of Albertan references. However, it has also managed to connect with fans from around the world! Renowned UK newspaper The Independent named it one of their Best Albums of 2023, alongside albums by Olivia Rodrigo and Lana Del Rey. Perhaps the most exciting part of this new album, and its subsequent world tour – is that it sees all three original members – and longtime great friends – back in action together.  They are Nils Edenloff (the Alberta expatriate who's the chief singer, songwriter and guitarist in the band), drummer extraordinaire Paul Banwatt and Amy Cole, who does pretty much everything else! Keyboards, bass pedals, harmony vocals – she's an orchestra unto herself! She took a break from the band back in 2016 and returned to the fold just in time for the new album and ensuing tour. Appropriately enough, the tour saw the band take a swing through Alberta, which included a visit to CKUA's studios for this episode of Hidden Track Stories - and what stories they are! In this episode, we hear all about the band's rich history, the Alberta folklore that's fascinated them and their fans for so long, how they keep themselves grounded with family and careers outside of being internationally-celebrated musicians, what it's like to play for 50,000 fans and several dozen NHL hockey players at this season's Edmonton Oilers/Calgary Flames Heritage Classic and - more than anything – the shared love, respect, and chemistry that's gotten them to this point.  Host: Grant Stovel | Producer: Scott Zielsdorf | Graphics: Craig Taffs | Music: Doug Hoyer Recording and mixing provided by Brendan Cross.  The Hidden Track podcast is a CKUA production and made possible by the generosity of our donors.

https://wildhorsecamp.com Diane Baker: I have never stopped working to make this a better world for all living things. “To this cause I have dedicated my life”. I am a born and raised Albertan whose family has been ranching in Alberta since the early 1900s. I grew up with one hand in the dirt and one hand on a horse. I am a gifted horsewoman, and the horses are my spirit guides as I am theirs. My ability to communicate, connect and understand animals borders on the supernatural. The ravens follow me talking excitedly all the while, to see what I have for them. The horses come to me when I call, when they are not feeling well, or something is wrong. They trust and rely on me to guard them. An avid wilderness traveler Diane has found nature and horses to be teachers of immense sacred wisdom. Diane is following her instincts and has established many types of gardens that are edible and enjoyable. Join her for some amazing opportunities to sample “home grown goodness”. In 2019 my oldest daughter Sandra died tragically leaving behind many grief-stricken family members. As we move forward in our lives, we are creating Sandra's Sanctuary: a place of Peace and safety for people, animals, and nature. A place to Remember, A place to Connect, A place to find Comfort. A place to walk through Grief and Loss. When trauma remains in the body it creates disease and at Wildhorse Ranch we have created opportunities and ceremonies to “Let Go and Move Forward”. Relax, Release, Renewal. A way to honor that precious life that is gone but never forgotten.

The Alberta Premier has a UCP leadership election this year, and apparently she needs transphobic voter support more than she cares about keeping the government out of classrooms and kids' pronouns. And invitations for Nazis, cancellations for Jews - we analyze the shameful takedown of NDP MLA Selina Robinson and try to figure out where exactly the line for cancellable offence is.Correction (Feb. 8, 2024): This episode originally described Susan Kim as a member of British Columbia's Legislative Assembly, suggested that Premier David Eby allowed her to continue in her role after she apologized for casting doubt on the use of sexual violence by Hamas. Kim is in fact a Victoria city councillor who added her name to a late-October open letter that made reference to “the unverified accusation that Palestinians were guilty of sexual violence.” While Municipal Affairs Minister Anne Kang called on Kim to apologize (which she subsequently did), and declined to call for Kim's resignation, Premier Eby himself did not weigh in.Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Jess Schmidt (Producer), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Guest: Rachel Matlow Further reading: Danielle Smith's “Preserving Choice for Children and Youth” announcement video on XOpinion: Danielle Smith's sex-ed policy changes are putting all Alberta teenagers at risk - John Ibbitson, The Globe and MailThe influence of conventions in the SCC's decision re: Ford's ministerial mandate letters - Emmett MacfarlaneJoni Mitchell performs at Grammys, 50 years after 1st win - CBC News Sponsors: Douglas, Squarespace, Ecojustice, oxio, Article, Athletic Greens, BetterHelp, Canva, Peloton If you value this podcast, Support us!

*** I accidentally said Connor Zary was injured when I meant Martin Pospisil. Zary is not hurt. It is Pospisil that is out for some time. The Calgary Flames showed major signs of regression against the Toronto Maple Leafs. After being defensive liabilities, Dillon Dube and AJ Greer were stapled to the bench after Toronto's two goals. Jess Belmosto shares her thoughts on the Calgary Flames' missteps and injuries. Assistant coach Marc Savard's career ended early due to his repeated concussions. It would not surprise me if Savy had had some heart-to-hearts with Pospisil about his injuries and development. A healthy Connor McDavid comes to town with the red hot Edmonton Oilers. They look to extend their 12 game win streak to 13 with a win over their Albertan rivals. What is the secret to the Oilers success and is this something the Flames may be able to find their way to?
