    British Columbia's drug decriminalization pilot program will end on January 31st. The controversial program was introduced in 2023, but was criticized by advocates and political opponents alike. Parts of the policy had already been rolled back as public pressure mounted. The pilot's cancellation was met with disappointment, especially from First Nations leaders, over the lack of consultation. What does the ending of this policy signal about the B.C. government's approach to the toxic drug crisis? And what does it mean for Canadians living with addictions?Andrea Woo, the Globe's staff reporter covering health and drug policy, gives us a retrospective on what exactly B.C.'s pilot was trying to fix, whether that worked, and what comes next as decriminalization ends in the province.Questions?

    Canada's healthcare system is already failing — and it's about to get worse.In this short, I explain what a potential paramedic strike in British Columbia really means for public safety, 911 response times, and patient care. Based on my lived experience as a former army medic, ex-paramedic, and first responder, I break down why paramedics in BC are not considered an essential service, why negotiations with the province broke down, and why a province-wide strike would cost lives.This isn't a political rant. It's a grounded, lived-experience perspective on Canada's healthcare crisis, paramedic burnout, first responder mental health, and how government policy failures are putting both paramedics and the public at risk.I also connect this to the fallout from British Columbia's drug decriminalization program, the rising overdose crisis, and the impossible conditions paramedics are working under on the front lines.Topics covered:• BC paramedic strike• Canada healthcare crisis• Paramedic burnout• First responder mental health• 911 response times• Public safety• Drug decriminalization in BC• Overdose crisis• Health policy failure• Veteran and paramedic perspectiveIf you're looking for honest conversations about trauma, recovery, modern culture, and the quiet parts nobody says out loud, subscribe for more from Unwritten Chapters.Unwritten Chapters with Matthew Heneghan is a raw, solo channel about life after trauma, modern culture, and the quiet parts nobody says out loud.Hosted by a veteran, former army medic, ex-paramedic, and nonfiction author, the channel explores PTSD, addiction recovery, sobriety, grief, burnout, and identity — not as inspirational slogans, but as lived reality.Alongside the recovery lens, Unwritten Chapters dissects modern culture, politics, media narratives, nostalgia, and social decay through a grounded, lived-experience perspective.There are also behind-the-scenes conversations about writing, creativity, addiction and art, discipline, publishing, and what it's actually like to build a life and career after rock bottom.This isn't a polished self-help channel.

Email and Final Thoughts Keith read a humorous story about a nun adding whiskey to warm milk for a dying Mother Superior, who then regained vigor and advised not to sell the cow. He also shared a humorous story about a pastor who decided to preach about horseback riding, but had a last moment change of plans. It turned out to be a situation that turned out to be embarrassing for his wife. As Keith also included a text message sent to our new voicemail line, He also discussed a new feature in the Messages app that allows users to quickly filter unread messages.

Branding, marketing, algorithms, trends, parasocial relationships -- It's a lot. How much do you really need to do, and how can you set boundaries around your public and private selves? But there are also times and places an author may need to talk about their book beyond social media and marketing. Sometimes, you have to do it in (gasp!) real life! What techniques can we use to get more comfortable with public speaking? What's good etiquette for being on a panel at a convention or conference? How can you engage with readers one-on-one in a way that makes them see you as an interesting person, not just a book-shilling Gollum incapable of taking about anything except your precious?

    Interview with Joseph Ovsenek, President & CEO of Tudor GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/tudor-gold-tsxvtud-developer-eyes-300k-ozyear-production-8936Recording date: 23rd January 2026Tudor Gold Corp. has released an updated mineral resource estimate for its Goldstorm deposit at Treaty Creek in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, reporting 24.9 million ounces of gold equivalent in the indicated category with an additional 4 million ounces inferred. The 15% increase in indicated resources positions the project as a potential tier-one asset as the company accelerates development plans targeting production.President and CEO Joseph Ovsenek emphasized the company's focus on higher-grade mineralization to optimize economics. The resource update includes sensitivity analyses at different net smelter revenue cutoff values. At a $125 per ton NSR cutoff, the deposit contains 5.8 million indicated ounces plus 2.6 million inferred ounces. At the more selective $175 per ton NSR cutoff, resources total 3.4 million indicated ounces and 2.4 million inferred ounces.The grade profile at higher cutoffs becomes particularly attractive. At the $175 per ton NSR cutoff, indicated grade averages 2.33 grams per ton gold while inferred averages 4.02 grams per ton. Combined, this approaches three grams per ton gold equivalent without copper and silver credits.The 15% resource increase came primarily from enhanced modeling techniques employing 5-meter blocks at grade boundaries rather than new drilling. Tudor Gold is pursuing concurrent mine planning and metallurgical studies expected to complete this quarter, targeting a Preliminary Economic Assessment by Q3 2026. The development strategy focuses on underground mining using long-hole stoping methods at 8,000-10,000 tons per day supporting annual production around 300,000 ounces.The company has filed permits for underground ramp development to enable infill drilling and expects approval in 2026. A substantial exploration program budgeting 10,000-15,000 meters will target Perfectstorm, CBS, and Eureka zones with an objective of developing an additional 5 million ounce resource beyond Goldstorm.With gold prices approaching $5,000 per ounce, Tudor Gold reported receiving unsolicited financing approaches, providing capital optionality to advance development on its preferred timeline.View Tudor Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/tudor-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

You know the deal. The military, however, is very interested in finding him because… he's extremely dangerous.Five years later, Bruce is living in Brazil, lying low. He's doing breathing exercises to keep his heart rate down and working at a bottling factory. He's also desperately searching for a cure for his Hulk-ness, secretly chatting online with someone named Mr. Blue.One day at work, Bruce cuts his finger, and a drop of his blood falls into one of the bottles. That bottle eventually makes its way to the U.S., where it causes serious problems for the guy who drinks it. Using this contaminated bottle, the military tracks Banner's location. A strike team led by Emil Blonsky is sent in to capture him.Bruce transforms into the Hulk and completely wrecks Blonsky's team. Blonsky, instead of being terrified, is impressed and immediately wants that power for himself. He agrees to be injected with a small dose of a super-soldier serum connected to the original Hulk experiment. Surely nothing bad will happen.Bruce returns to the States to grab some of his old research and reunites with his former girlfriend, Betty Ross. Blonsky attacks again, and when Betty is put in danger, Bruce transforms into the Hulk. Hulk fights off the military—including Blonsky—and escapes with Betty.Now officially on the run together, Bruce contacts Mr. Blue, who urges them to meet in New York City.Mr. Blue turns out to be Dr. Samuel Sterns, a cellular biologist who claims he's developed a possible antidote. They test it—and it actually works. But Sterns reveals he's also been stockpiling Bruce's blood samples, believing its “limitless potential” could revolutionize medicine now that a cure exists.Bruce immediately points out that this is a terrible idea because the military is absolutely going to weaponize it. (Did we learn nothing from Iron Man?)Right on cue, Blonsky and the military arrive, capture Banner, and take him away. Blonsky stays behind and forces Sterns to inject him with Banner's blood. Sterns warns him that combining the serum with the radiation already in his body could turn him into something far worse—an Abomination.Blonsky hears the name and says, “Cool. Do it.”Blonsky mutates into a massive, rage-filled monster even bigger and stronger than the Hulk and immediately starts destroying Harlem.Bruce realizes he has to stop him. He jumps from a helicopter, transforms mid-fall, and the Hulk takes on Abomination in an extended, brutal battle across the city. Hulk ultimately defeats him by choking him with a massive chain, stopping only when Betty begs him not to kill Blonsky.After a quiet moment with Betty, Hulk flees the scene and disappears.One month later, Bruce is in Bella Coola, British Columbia. Instead of trying to suppress the Hulk, he's learning to transform on purpose. As his eyes turn green, Bruce smiles.

    EraNova Metals' Dual-Path Critical Minerals Play with $30 Million Infrastructure Advantage in Canada

    Interview with Meredith Eades, President & CEO of EraNova MetalsRecording date: 23rd January 2026EraNova Metals represents a compelling asymmetric investment opportunity in the critical minerals sector, combining an advanced-stage molybdenum development project trading at a substantial discount to peers with emerging high-grade silver exploration upside that remains unrecognised by current valuation.Under newly appointed President and CEO Meredith Eades, EraNova has repositioned around a dual-path value creation strategy centred on its 30,000-hectare Ruby Creek property in British Columbia. The company's 433 million pound molybdenum resource benefits from $30 million in existing infrastructure, historical feasibility study and environmental approval, and simple metallurgy requiring straightforward processing. Working with engineering firm Tetra Tech to advance toward preliminary economic assessment, EraNova is updating project economics to reflect improving molybdenum market fundamentals with minimal additional drilling required due to comprehensive historical work.The valuation opportunity is striking. At approximately $10 million market capitalisation, investors acquire the Ruby Creek infrastructure at 33 cents on the dollar before accounting for the molybdenum resource itself. Trading at 2.5 cents per pound of molybdenum in-ground versus comparable developers at 5-35 cents, EraNova presents potential for 2-14x re-rating as the PEA demonstrates project economics and strategic partnership discussions advance. Management has confirmed active interest from potential partners exploring joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and offtake agreements—structures that could fund development whilst preserving shareholder value.The exploration dimension provides additional upside optionality currently ignored by market valuation. A 1,585-pound bulk sample from the Silver Surprise zone yielded a 14.3-ounce silver bar through simple crushing and gravity separation, with grades of 4,200 grams per tonne silver and 95% recoveries. Three parallel surface veins extending up to 180 metres offer compelling drill targets, whilst strengthening silver prices above $30 per ounce enhance the economics of potential direct shipping ore scenarios. This near-term revenue generation potential offers an anti-dilutive funding mechanism for continued exploration across seven distinct mineralised zones showing copper-gold-silver-tungsten potential.Management's capital structure and alignment merit investor attention. The operations manager and chief geologist both hold significant equity positions and work without cash compensation, ensuring decisions prioritise shareholder value creation. The autumn financing round came together efficiently with participation from both long-term shareholders and new investors, demonstrating market confidence in the strategic vision whilst maintaining the company's stated focus on execution and disciplined capital allocation.The macro backdrop supports both elements of EraNova's investment thesis. Molybdenum serves critical functions in high-strength steel alloys for infrastructure, pipelines, and construction, with emerging demand from offshore wind, nuclear power, and hydrogen infrastructure supporting steady price improvement. Government emphasis on domestic critical mineral production in stable jurisdictions enhances the strategic value of Canadian molybdenum supply. Simultaneously, silver benefits from monetary uncertainty, industrial demand growth, and supply constraints.For investors seeking exposure to critical minerals development with precious metals exploration leverage, EraNova presents compelling risk-reward at current valuation. The combination of near-term PEA catalyst, potential strategic partnership announcements, 2026 exploration results, and substantial valuation discount to peers creates multiple pathways for value recognition as the market adjusts to the company's repositioned focus and demonstrated progress on both development and exploration fronts.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

    In his debut book We Survived the Night, artist and writer Julian Brave NoiseCat takes readers on a complex journey of Indigenous experience stemming from a childhood rich with culture and contradictions. Reeling from his father — a Secwépemc and St'at'imc artist haunted by a troubled past — abandoning his family, NoiseCat and his non-Native mother found themselves embraced and invigorated by their community. Supported by the urban Native population in Oakland, California and family on the Canim Lake Indian Reserve in British Columbia, NoiseCat was able to immerse himself in Native history and culture. Doing so bridged the gaps in his knowledge of his father's past and their stories and sent him on a journey to further his understanding of his people and himself. Told in the style of a "Coyote Story" — a legend about the trickster forefather of NoiseCat's people, revered for his wit and mocked for his tendency to self-destruct — We Survived the Night brings a traditional artform nearly annihilated by colonization back to life on the page. NoiseCat explores his personal origins amidst recounting on-the-ground efforts to correct the erasure of Indigenous peoples across the continent. Over years spent researching and developing his voice as a storyteller, NoiseCat grapples with the generational trauma of North America's First Peoples and learns of the cultural, environmental, and political movements reshaping the future.  We Survived the Night dives into examples of Native endurance and modern achievements that NoiseCat studied in his journalistic endeavors — the historic ascent of the first Native cabinet secretary in the United States and the first Indigenous sovereign of Canada; the colonial origins and limits of racial ideology and Indian identity of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina; hauling the golden eggs of an imperiled fish out of the sea alongside the Tlingit of Sitka, Alaska. Blending history and mythology, research and personal memoir, NoiseCat seeks to reclaim a culture stripped away by years of colonization and the family ties that were severed in his youth. His voiced honesty and years of efforts link the past to the present, the community to the individual in a powerfully intimate depiction of contemporary Indigenous life. Julian Brave NoiseCat is a writer, Oscar-nominated filmmaker, champion powwow dancer, and student of Salish art and history. His writing has appeared in publications, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The New Yorker.

    Have you've tried everything from protocols, to supplements, to experts and the healing still hasn't happened? Why do so many of us stay stuck despite doing "all the right things"? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Navaz Habib, aka "The Vagus Nerve Doc," to explore what might be missing. What if the real issue isn't another diagnosis, hormone imbalance, or gut protocol? What if it's your nervous system itself? I share my own journey of chasing answers and why discovering the vagus nerve made me question everything I thought I knew about healing. Why does stress seem to override even the best treatments? How can inflammation, trauma, and feeling unsafe keep the body locked in survival mode? This conversation opens the door to a completely different way of understanding why your body won't let you heal (yet). In this episode, we uncover: Why doing more treatments can backfire when your nervous system feels unsafe. How chronic stress keeps your body stuck in survival instead of repair. What the vagus nerve has to do with inflammation, hormones, and healing. How past trauma or injuries may silently block recovery. What needs to shift before your body will finally respond to treatment.

    This week on No Simple Road, we head north of the border to connect with Dylan Stone and Jesse Cobb from The Unfaithful Servants, the genre-bending roots outfit straight out of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Blending folk, bluegrass, old-time, and a healthy dose of irreverent spirit, this band brings a sound that's as playful as it is deeply rooted. Aaron, Mel, and Apple sit down with the crew to talk about the origin of the band, the stories behind the songs, and what it means to build a musical life on an island where community and creativity go hand in hand. We dig into their songwriting process, the push and pull between tradition and experimentation, and how humor and honesty shape their approach to roots music. The conversation flows through touring life in Western Canada, the power of DIY scenes, and the importance of staying connected to the people who show up — night after night — to share the experience. The Unfaithful Servants reflect on how place influences sound, how collaboration fuels longevity, and why music is still one of the most powerful tools we have for connection. This episode is full of laughter, insight, and that unmistakable feeling you get when musicians are creating from a place of truth rather than trend.

What began as pastoral care unraveled into horror as survivors confided tales of torture, rape, sodomy, unexplained deaths, and systematic genocide orchestrated by the United, Anglican, and Catholic churches.Undeterred, Kevin escalated his mission beyond Canada's borders. In 2010, he co-founded the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (ITCCS), a citizen-led court uniting survivors from 26 nations to prosecute global elites for crimes against humanity. Through the ITCCS, he exposed a vast international network linking residential school horrors to ritualistic child abuse and sacrifice. His most explosive revelations center on the Ninth Circle Cult - a centuries-old secret society embedded at the Vatican's rotten core, involving high-ranking Vatican officials, European royals, politicians, and other elites who engage in ritual child sacrifices to appease ancient occult rites.Eyewitness testimonies gathered by Kevin and the ITCCS describe Ninth Circle ceremonies in Vatican basements, remote estates, and hidden facilities, where children trafficked from orphanages and networks are ritually abused, tortured, and killed. Former Popes Benedict and Francis have been directly accused of involvement, with Benedict's 2013 resignation allegedly prompted by ITCCS arrest warrants for genocide and child trafficking. Last time Kevin was on, he relayed the connections between ICE, Trump and the government, the Mormon Church, Elon Musk and Neuralink, and child trafficking and crimes against humanity. On today's episode, Kevin returns to share some ground-breaking and explosive news updates building on the last episode regarding President Donald Trump, news of a Declaration of a new kind, and so much more.

    A will that looks proper on paper can still fall apart under real scrutiny. We walk through a striking Court of Appeal decision where a 92‑year‑old's revised will took 18 nieces and nephews from life‑changing inheritances to token gifts, while siblings stood to gain over a million each. The key isn't drama; it's doctrine. When circumstances around a will raise well‑grounded suspicion—undue influence, unclear capacity, or radical shifts without explanation—the usual presumption of validity drops away, and the burden flips to the person pushing the will to prove it's sound.We unpack how that burden‑shifting works, why “residue” can hide huge sums, and what evidence is needed to show the testator actually understood the size and consequences of their choices. You'll hear how earlier documents, contradictory statements, and who drafted instructions can become powerful facts. In the end, the appellate court restored the original 2001 will, returning substantial shares to the nieces and nephews and offering a roadmap for spotting red flags in estate planning.Then we change gears to civil costs in British Columbia. A neighbour dispute over excavation damage led to a modest award in the Supreme Court, raising hard questions about forum selection, mitigation duties, and how costs can swing based on strategy and behaviour. One twist: the self‑represented plaintiffs relied on AI, which produced fake case citations. Thankfully, counsel caught the hallucinations immediately, but there were still cost consequences—and a clear lesson. Use AI as a starting point, never an authority. Verify every citation on CanLII, read the full text, and note up decisions to see what the law is today, not yesterday.If you care about clean estate planning, sound litigation strategy, and staying safe with legal tech, this conversation is your checklist.

    Episode OverviewIn this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash sits down with Tim Flagler to explore his lesser-known culinary journey and preview his extensive 2026 hosted travel schedule. While most fly fishers recognize Tim from his renowned tying videos and work at Tightline Productions, this conversation reveals his parallel passion for cooking and food that parallels his fly tying expertise. The discussion traces Tim's evolution from childhood family meals at the Jersey Shore through his mother's and grandmother's influence to his current fascination with Asian cooking techniques, particularly Japanese, Chinese and Thai cuisine. Tim shares cooking philosophy centered on sourcing quality ingredients, constant tasting during preparation and proper knife skills while detailing his upcoming 2026 adventures including golden dorado fishing on Argentina's Ibera Marsh, trophy brown trout on the Limay River, northern pike and bull trout in British Columbia's Northern Rockies and steelhead on Lake Erie. The conversation also touches on Tim's ongoing fly tying innovations focused on creating mottled, natural-looking patterns that better imitate the mottled appearance of living aquatic insects.Key TakeawaysHow Tim's family food traditions at the Jersey Shore mirror the collaborative, process-driven approach he brings to fly tying and teachingWhy sourcing the best possible ingredients and tasting constantly throughout preparation are the two most critical elements of successful cookingHow to book Tim's 2026 hosted trips to Argentina for golden dorado and trophy brown trout, British Columbia for northern pike and bull trout or Lake Erie for winter steelheadHow Tim is incorporating mottled, multi-colored patterns in his fly designs to better imitate the natural mottled appearance of living aquatic insects that signals protein to feeding troutTechniques & Gear CoveredTim discusses his ongoing fly tying evolution focused on creating mottled appearances in patterns rather than solid single colors, based on close observation and video documentation of living aquatic macroinvertebrates. He explains how blotches of different colors signal life and protein to feeding fish, making these techniques potentially more effective than traditional solid-colored flies. The conversation touches on trout spey casting as one of Tim's seminar topics at upcoming Fly Fishing Shows. Tim also draws parallels between cooking and fly tying, emphasizing that both crafts require quality materials, proper tools (sharp knives in cooking, quality hackle and partridge in tying) and understanding fundamental techniques before attempting complex work.Locations & SpeciesTim's 2026 hosted travel schedule spans diverse fisheries across multiple continents targeting various species. In Argentina, he hosts trips to the Ibera Marsh for golden dorado, classic Patagonia rivers including the Chimehuin, Collon Cura and Limay for trout, and a six-day camping float on the Limay River targeting trophy brown trout.

We're also the easiest one to quit on because we'll put everything else before us. Just know that you're worth it and that you will surprise yourself time and time again, the more you just start."On growth and permission:"When we start showing up for ourselves, especially as a mom, you're giving your kids the permission to do that way sooner than we have been doing. That's my hope and my dream, that my kids just know that they are fully supported by us standing behind whatever they want in this life and just do you without apology."Resources MentionedInstagram: @BrittanyAndersonCoachingWebsite: BrittAnderson.comPodcast: Mom Sweat SanityPeople & Podcasts:Brendon BurchardLori and Chris HarderDr. Stacy SimsMel RobbinsKelsey's Website: KelseyReidl.comKelsey's Podcast: Rain or Shine (350+ episodes featuring Canadian entrepreneurs)Instagram: @KelseyReidlAbout the GuestBrittany Anderson is the founder of Momentum Collective, a coaching practice and community for women focused on personal and professional development.

    A cancer diagnosis can flip life overnight. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sayan sits down with Zed Dhalla to unpack what really happens mentally when your health takes an unexpected turn, and how you choose your response in the middle of it. This conversation is for anyone facing uncertainty, grief, or a major health challenge, and for anyone who wants to stop ignoring the body's early signals. Zed shares the mindset shifts, daily practices, and practical prevention habits that helped him stay present, build resilience, and protect his inner stability during treatment. About the Guest: Zed Dhalla is based in Vancouver, British Columbia. He shares his lived experience with stage 3B colon cancer, including treatment, recovery, and the mindset tools that supported him through adversity. Key Takeaways: Watch for early body signals and do not normalize ongoing symptoms. Reframe “I have to” into “I get to” to shift your emotional state quickly. Build a daily baseline: gratitude journaling + morning meditation for steadiness. Focus on ownership, not statistics, and choose how you show up each day. Support prevention with simple habits: reduce highly processed oils and eat more vegetables. Get routine bloodwork and understand your health markers early.

    What does it take to hunt country so wild you have to jump out of a plane just to reach it? In this episode of the EatWild Podcast, I am sitting down with Axel Lubeck. Axel learned how to jump out of airplanes while serving in the Canadian military. He continued to develop his skills and passion for skydiving, working as a smoke jumper for Alberta Wildfire. Axels take us on the ultimate adventure hunt to one of the most remote areas in British Columbia, best reached by parachute. What started as a love for hunting in Alberta evolved into an 18-month plan to skydive into remote mountain country, pack raft out, and hunt sheep far beyond roads and trails. Axel breaks down the reality behind airborne expeditions: the preparation, the risk management, the teamwork, and the hard decisions that matter when you're fully committed in wild places. We talk gear that actually changes what's possible, how pack rafts are reshaping backcountry access, and why ethics and conservation matter even more when adventure gets extreme. This isn't about shortcuts or adrenaline. It's about earning access, respecting wild places, and pushing personal limits with intention. If you've ever wondered how far is too far — or what's possible when preparation meets purpose — this one's for you.

    I'm diving into why waiting until menopause to address hormones can be an incredibly costly mistake for so many women. Why are we told to "wait it out" when symptoms often start years earlier? And what's really happening inside our bodies long before our periods stop? I walk through the often-missed perimenopausal years and explain why this phase matters more than most of us realize. What if heavy periods, anxiety, weight gain, or insomnia aren't things you just have to tolerate? Could early hormone shifts be driving them? We also explore timing, myths, and fears around hormone replacement. How do you know when it's actually time to start paying attention? And what are the long-term consequences of ignoring these early warning signs for bones, brain, and heart health? In this episode, we uncover: Why waiting for menopause can ultimately worsen your long-term health outcomes. How perimenopause quietly begins years before your final period. What early hormone symptoms are often misdiagnosed or dismissed. How timing influences the benefits and safety of hormone support. Why listening to what your body is telling you matters more than arbitrary age rules.

Stationed in Port Alberni, British Columbia, he ministered to Indigenous communities ravaged by the legacy of Canada's Indian Residential Schools - government-funded, church-run institutions that forcibly assimilated Indigenous children, often through brutal abuse, cultural erasure, and, as Kevin would uncover, systematic genocide. What started as pastoral care soon unraveled into horror: survivors confided tales of torture, rape, sodomy, and unexplained deaths at schools operated by the United, Anglican, and Catholic churches. Kevin didn't just listen - he acted, demanding investigations and reparations, even as his superiors warned him to stay silent.But Kevin's revelations didn't stop at Canada's borders. In 2010, he founded the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, a citizen-led court aimed at prosecuting global elites for crimes against humanity. Through ITCCS, he escalated his accusations, linking residential school horrors to a vast international network. His most recent explosive claims center on the "Ninth Circle Cult," a secret society of high-ranking figures - including Vatican officials, European royals, and politicians - who engage in ritual child sacrifices dating back centuries. Kevin whistleblows eyewitness testimonies of Ninth Circle ceremonies in Vatican basements and remote estates, where children from orphanages and trafficking rings were ritually abused and killed to appease ancient occult rites.The Vatican stands at the cult's rotten core. He accuses former Popes Benedict and Francis of direct involvement, claiming Benedict resigned in 2013 amid ITCCS arrest warrants for genocide and child trafficking. His books, like Hidden No Longer: Genocide in Canada, Past and Present (2010), compile survivor affidavits, historical documents, and forensic evidence of mass graves, exposing the Vatican as a millennia-old perpetrator of Indigenous and child exploitation.Continuing from our last interview, Kevin and his team have discovered a whole new area of crime involving the use of ICE detainees as involuntary human test subjects in Elon Musk's Neuralink experiments in brain chipping, relying on the usual Vatican financial involvement and Trump endorsement. Kevin will lay out the new evidence today that the court has uncovered about this latest crime against humanity and describe what citizens are doing on the ground to stop it.Today, Kevin remains an unstoppable force of courage and conviction. Through his podcasts, writings, and ongoing ITCCS actions - from undisclosed locations amid relentless threats - he embodies the indomitable human spirit that refuses to bow to tyranny. A beacon of hope for survivors worldwide, Kevin proves that one voice, armed with truth and unbreakable resolve, can shatter empires of darkness and ignite a global awakening. His epic crusade reminds us all: In the face of unimaginable evil, true heroes rise, lighting the path toward justice, healing, and a Support the show

    Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is in China for the first visit by a Canadian leader in almost a decade. Already, he's signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Beijing that could result in more Canadian oil, natural gas, and clear energy exported to China. But as Dan Karpenchuk reports, before he left, PM Carney made a stop over in British Columbia to talk with Coastal First Nations about his plans for energy exports. The meeting was held in Prince Rupert, and on the agenda – Ottawa's major projects. The Coastal First Nations, made up of nine First Nations, try to ensure that they have a say in how resources and waters are managed.  They also work to protect the Great Bear Rainforest and the British Columbia (BC) coastline. And they have strongly opposed the idea  of a new pipeline or the end of a ban on the moratorium on oil tankers. Both are major components of Ottawa's plans to diversity Canada's trade in energy, and move away from dependency on U.S. trade, especially now in the era of uncertainty caused by President Donald Trump. But Coastal First Nations remain opposed to any new pipeline to the BC coast. Carney played down expectations, saying that the meeting was more about dialogue to explore ways they could work together, but the coastal chiefs are not budging on their opposition, according to the group's president, Maily Slett. “We reiterated that there is no technology that can clean up an oil spill at sea. And that it would take just one spill to destroy our way of life. We shared our reliance on a healthy and intact ocean and our determination to protect the ocean and the ecosystem that we rely upon.” Without their support, Carney's government appears to be in a lose-lose situation. Coastal chiefs say they will use every tool available to stop construction if Ottawa pushes ahead with a North Coast pipeline. The St. Innocent Russian Orthodox Cathedral choir performs hymns during a Christmas celebration on January 7 at the Yagheli Shesh Qenq’a Anchorage Native Primary Care Center. (Photo: Matt Faubion / Alaska Public Media) The holidays may be over, but Alaskans across the state recently celebrated Russian Orthodox Christmas and New Year. Celebrations often include hymns, feasts, and a tradition called Starring, or Slaviq. One celebration in Anchorage brought together people who could not celebrate the holiday with their families or in church. The Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA was there and has the story. Singers in kuspuks and head scarfs chant Christmas hymns in English, Yup’ik, Russian, and Church Slavonic. Next to them, three young men spin sparkling pinwheel-shaped stars on wooden poles, each with an Orthodox icon of a Nativity scene in the center. The group is gathered for a Russian Christmas celebration hosted by the Alaska Native Medical Center at their primary care clinic. The singers are from St. Innocent Russian Orthodox Cathedral choir in Anchorage, though most of them are originally from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. Alaska Orthodox Archbishop Alexei was a part of the opening of Slaviq, a custom he says originated in the Carpathian Mountains in Eastern Europe. “This wonderful, beautiful tradition that has been in Alaska for over 100 years.” Okalena Patricia Lekanoff-Gregory is from Unalaska and grew up singing hymns in Aleut and Russian. Her family always gathered around Slaviq to decorate stars for the celebration. Now she makes them herself. Gregory says she wants to pass down the tradition to the next generation. “It’s our history. It’s been going, coming over from Ukraine, from Russia, and and still being sung today. To me, it’s powerful.” The best part of the night for Gregory is having a big feast, sometimes until two in the morning. And she loves it when the songs make people move. She remembers one song from her childhood, similar to @Joy to the World@, that shifted between fast and slow tempo. “You could see the people kind of dance or move to it. You're not supposed to dance in church, right? But this song, they always did. All the elders, you can see them tapping their feet, and their head bop. I miss that.” Gregory says she was happy to attend Slaviq at the primary care center, to bring comfort and healing to patients. After the performance, the group crossed the street from the primary care center and continued the procession at the patient housing. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.
