From June 12 to 14, 2023, the Institute on Governance (IOG) and the Centre of Excellence on the Canadian Federation at the Institute for Research on Public Policy (IRPP) partenered to convene Resilient Institutions: Learning from Canada's COVID-19 Pandemic – a conference on making public institutions and governance more agile. As the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic has recently demonstrated, countries that want to thrive in this turbulent century must be adaptable. In this keynote address at the Resilient Institutions conference, Alasdair Roberts, professor of public policy at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, the Jocelyne Bourgon Visiting Scholar at the Canada School of Public Service and a visiting professor at the School of Public Policy and Administration at Carleton University, examines Canada's track record on adaptability and considers how the country can respond more effectively to new conditions and ideas. Despite the many merits of the Canadian approach to governing, adaptability has come under threat in recent years. Short-term politics have increasingly taken the place of forward thinking, technological change has disrupted the public sphere, and the public service has become less nimble. Taking account of these challenges, Roberts proposes a program of reform that is focused on the country's flexibility for the dangerous decades ahead. This episode of the podcast is a recording of Alasdair Roberts' keynote address at the IRPP's Resilient Institutions: Learning from Canada's COVID-19 Pandemic conference, which was co-hosted with the Institute on Governance and took place in Ottawa from June 12 to 14, 2023.

Guest: Megan Ogilvie, heath reporter for the Toronto Star More than three years after the COVID-19 pandemic that took tens of thousands of Canadian lives, a group of the country's top medical experts have published a scathing indictment of Canada's COVID response. In a sweeping set of research papers and editorials published in the British Medical Journal, these experts are calling on the government for a national inquiry into its COVID response — something that's already happening in other countries. They say this process is imperative to learn from what was lost, because it is only a matter of time before we face the next big pandemic. We take a deep dive into “the COVID papers." This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz and Sean Pattendon.

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: A new poll by CAA delved into Canadians' auto theft concerns. Is CSIS too restricted to properly brief provincial and municipal levels of government, and is it time to change in the face of foreign interference as well as other security dangers? A panel of experts made further calls for an independent inquiry into Canada's COVID-19 response on Tuesday, stressing that the country's pandemic response must be reviewed before it's tested once again. This week, one of Canada's – and the world's – leading voices spoke to the U.S. Senate and gave a warning about the realities of artificial intelligence and where it is going. The shuffle affected more than just Trudeau's cabinet and our country: it means something to international relations and particularly NATO. It is all coming up on the Hamilton Today Podcast! Guests: Elliott Silverstein, Director, Government Relations, CAA Insurance. Phil Gurski, President of Borealis Threat and Risk Consulting, former CSIS analyst. Ari Goldkind, Toronto criminal lawyer, legal expert, media commentator.

Join us for a discussion with Marco Navarro-Genie, Dr. Dennis Modry, and Kerry Lambert on Marco's new book "Canada's Covid: The Story of a Pandemic Moral Panic."haultain.orgJuly 26, 2023

In this episode, we welcome Jacob Reaume to the show. He is the Pastor of Trinity Bible Chapel in Ontario, Canada. He received his Master of Divinity from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and is one of the many Canadian pastors that ran afoul of the authoritarian Canadian government by holding church during Canada's COVID lockdown. At one point, he was facing up to a year in jail and a $100,000 fine for violating Canada's so-called “health restrictions”. He is also featured in the new documentary Antichrist and His Ruin, which is the main subject matter for today's interview. In this interview, we discuss what it was like growing up in a secularizing Canada, why he felt led to become a pastor, the long history of moral degradation in Canada, how one omnibus law passed in 1968 changed the trajectory of Canada forever, what precipitated the Canadian government arresting Christian pastors for holding church, the role of strong men in the fight against tyrannical governments, whether or not he will continue to face justice issues with the Canadian government, why he doesn't foresee a scenario where he would leave his home country, and much more.

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast w/ Shiona Thompson: Galen Weston Jr., fourth-generation Loblaw Companies Ltd. heir — now president and chairman of Canada's largest food retailer — has caught the ire of Twitter users again . "I beg your pardon," tweeted CTV Queen's Park reporter Siobhan Morris, an award-winning journalist based in Toronto, on Tuesday evening with a photo showing a pack of boneless, skinless chicken breast priced at $26.87 per kilogram at Loblaws. For comparison's sake, blogTO paid just a fraction of that price per kilo in November as part of an experiment. Morris' tweet has now been viewed more than 1.7 million times in less than 24 hours, attracting nearly 10,000 likes, thousands of retweets and thousands of salty comments. GUEST: Joanne McNeish, Associate Professor of Marketing with Toronto Metropolitan University, - What does Canada's COVID sanctions do to Canada-China relations? GUEST: Dr. Robert Huish (HEW-ish) Associate Professor with the Department of International Development Studies at Dalhousie University - A Supreme Court ruling that ended the punishment of life without parole for multiple murders has led to a greater emphasis on rehabilitation in sentencing for a wide range of offences. The court's decision in May in the case of Alexandre Bissonnette, who killed six Muslim worshippers in Quebec City in 2017, said Canada's commitment to rehabilitation sets it apart from many other countries. Lower-court judges are taking that message to heart. The ruling is having an effect on sentencing well beyond multiple murders, the review shows. GUEST: Kim Pate, Senator for Ontario

James Mennie joins David to discuss how if you live in Quebec, everything is relative.

My lab partner today is the Association of Water Technologies' current President, Matt Jensen. A self-proclaimed lover of water, Matt discovered his fascination with the use and movement of water at a young age. Growing up in Green Bay, Wisconsin, he would spend his summers sailing and fishing. Matt graduated from the University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point with a degree in Analytical Chemistry and a minor in American History. He interned at a Water Treatment company during his final summer in college, and that is where Matt's interest in Water Treatment began.  Matt started his career at an International Chemical Distributor selling commodity chemicals to the food, pharmaceutical, and specialty chemical industries. He then worked for a large US-based national Water Treatment company, selling primarily in the food and healthcare markets, before joining Watertech of America, Inc. as a Territory Manager, then Director of Applied Technologies. In 2021, after 12 years of working at the Watertech of America, Matt joined Global Water Technology, Inc. as the Vice President. Matt first got involved with the Association of Water Technologies (AWT) in 2009 in the Young Professionals Group and the Charity Task Force. That same year, he earned his Certified Water Technologist (CWT) designation. Outside of Water Treatment, Matt enjoys fishing and coaches his son's and daughter's hockey teams. Matt Jensen loves water, and he made sure that his career involves doing what he loves.  Bottom line: Matt Jensen is going to share his career journey from being an intern at a Water Treatment company in college to becoming the President of the Association of Water Technologies and Vice President at Global Water Technology, Inc..  Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client.   -Trace    Timestamps:  This day in history [01:24] Events in Water Treatment [07:58] Introducing the President of the Association of Water Technologies, Matt Jensen, CWT [10:15] Getting into Water Treatment [12:30] Working day-to-day at Global Water Technology [14:00] Getting involved at AWT [16:32] Joining AWT Committees [20:13] Becoming the AWT President and the day-to-day [24:05] AWT Technical Training [32:06] AWT's 2022 Annual Convention and Exposition [35:19] Message from the AWT President [42:35] Lightning round questions [44:12] Thinking On Water With James [51:57]   Thinking On Water With James: In this week's episode, we're thinking about nitrite levels dropping in a closed loop. What could cause nitrite to drop? If caused by a water leak, what other water quality parameters may or may not drop at the same time in the closed loop? Is there a makeup meter present? Does it show any makeup used? Can the meter detect low usage rates? Have any repairs been done on the system lately? What about microbiological activity? How may it impact nitrite levels? What microbiological tests might you run to help determine this? Take this week to think about dropping nitrite levels in closed loops and possible causes.   Quotes: “The Water Treatment Industry is a great industry to be a part of, I couldn't imagine doing anything other than Water Treatment.” - Matt Jensen “I believe so much in what the Association of Water Technologies does, and how important it is to support the customer in helping them be efficient and be stewards of the environment.” - Matt Jensen “One of the best parts of being a Water Treater is the fact that you get to go to different places all the time.” - Matt Jensen “Getting involved with the Association of Water Technologies and realizing what it was and the stuff that I learned just from my very first conference, I fell in love with the Association and everything that it stood for.” - Matt Jensen “Water Treatment is not an easy industry to be successful in, you really have to put the time into it, and the Association of Water Technologies helps with that.” - Matt Jensen “As President of the Associations of Water Technologies (AWT), my job is to be positive about the direction of where we are going and what we are doing.” - Matt Jensen “The job of the President and my day to day as a President is to keep the message of the Associations of Water Technologies (AWT) positive moving forward, constantly advancing the association, doing everything that we can to keep the members happy.” - Matt Jensen “A board that all agrees is not a board that is going to accomplish a lot. You have to have disagreements to come to a good agreement.” - Matt Jensen “Despite the fact that we are doing the convention in Canada and of COVID, the Association is doing everything that we can to make sure that we can get everybody involved as much as we can.” - Matt Jensen “Amplify AWT is a way for us to guarantee that the Association of Water Technologies can grow and flourish in the upcoming 10 to 20 years.” - Matt Jensen “If you join an Association, you will get a lot of benefits. There are a lot of things you can take back, but if you join any organization with a mindset of “How can I contribute, how can I become a part of this?” You will get back more than ten times you'll ever put in.” - Trace Blackmore “We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win.” - John F.

While many Liberals unabashedly celebrated the 40th anniversary of the signing of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms last week, many Canadians were left wondering: if the Charter couldn't protect our freedoms during Covid, then what good is it? On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice is joined by lawyer, legal scholar and President of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), John Carpay. Candice and John discuss the purpose of the Charter, its history and its many shortfalls. They discuss the worst government offenders during Covid, the most draconian and anti-freedom policies, and why our Charter didn't do more to protect individual rights and freedoms during the dystopian nightmare of the past two years. Finally, Candice asks John if Canada is truly a free country and if it's fair comment to describe Canada as a “dictatorship” – as we've heard recently from Conservative activists and politicians.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Whether it was the obsessive rules about masking, punitive vaccine mandates or the bullying tactics used against the unvaccinated, Canada's Covid policies were characterized by repeated failures. The public health advice was confusing, hypocritical, hectoring and oftentimes, completely counter to what we knew about the virus. It was opposed to scientific knowledge. Today on the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice is joined by Dr. Matt Strauss, the Medical Officer of Health for Haldimand Norfolk and an ICU doctor at Guelph General Hospital. Dr. Strauss wrote a recent opinion piece he wrote on a comprehensive scientific study on the limitations of masks – especially cloth masks. They talk about the repeated failed approaches to Covid, the limitations of vaccines, the bullying tactics used in the media against people with dissenting opinions (including Dr. Strauss!) and the many unintended consequences of our failed policies.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

" Thousands of truckers united to block North America's busiest international border crossing in protest of Canada's Covid-19 measures. Canada requires anyone who crosses the border to be vaccinated or quarantine for 14 days. For cross-border truckers, this was effectively a vaccine mandate, and thus, the ‘Freedom Convoy' was formed.

"Tooting a horn is not an expression of any great thought I'm aware of," Justice Hugh McLean of the Ottawa Superior Court said. He also said the ban on honking would not rob demonstrators of their right to protest. Journalist Élie Cantin-Nantel tweeted that, so far, the truckers appear to be complying. A convoy of truckers and other demonstrators protesting Canada's COVID-19 policies entered Ottawa on Jan. 29 and has been blocking streets and using horns ever since. Protesters also cooked food, set up bouncy castles, held impromptu dance parties, and played street hockey. https://twitter.com/backtolife_2019/status/1490632512414097409?s=20&t=DMD9DK_ZWpx0r5a8pvd9zQ Meanwhile, Hundreds of protestors (thousands?) gathered in the streets of Turin, Italy to eat together, protesting vaccine mandates. And next to Psalm sing protests, that’s about the next most Christian thing you could do. And if the truckers do decided to relax the honking, I hope they will all decide to honk at stated times, maybe at noon every day? Or at the beginning and close of business hours. Speaking of feasting and protesting: Idaho Family Policy Center is on the frontline of the battle to protect faith, freedom, and family values in the Gem State, and I'm excited to announce that we are hosting our first-ever Spring Banquet on March 10, 2022, at Still Water Hollow in Nampa, Idaho. We would love for you to join us for this unforgettable evening, which will feature Gary Demar, a renowned Christian apologist and cultural commentator, as the keynote speaker. Gary has served as president of American Vision for nearly four decades. His monumental work, God and Government, has long been the quintessential textbook on government for Christian private and homeschooling students. We ask that you consider partnering with us at this event as a table host by sponsoring a table of eight for $600. You will then have the opportunity to invite seven guests to join you for the evening as we fill the room with like-minded men and women who are ready to engage the culture and advance the lordship of Jesus Christ in Idaho. Your prayers and support are the backbone of our work. By sponsoring a table or making a tax-deductible gift in your absence, you will help support our commitment to promote God-honoring legislation, engage the church, and train statesmen to advocate our Christian values. We couldn’t do this without you, and we look forward to spending the evening with you!

Possible Biden Nominees https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/06/us/leondra-kruger-supreme-court.html?smid=tw-share Leondra R. Kruger is on President Biden’s short list of candidates to succeed Justice Stephen G. Breyer on the U.S. Supreme Court. Senate Republican leaders have warned that they will oppose “radical left” nominees. But jurists across the political spectrum say that, like the president, Justice Kruger’s hallmark is moderation. “She’s a consensus builder,” said Tani Cantil-Sakauye, the chief justice of the California Supreme Court, who was appointed in 2011 by a Republican governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger. “Beyond her obviously glittering Ivy League education and her brilliant mind is this incredibly humble, self-effacing personality who is very persuasive in bringing groups together on different legal arcs.” That instinct for reasoned persuasion has made Justice Kruger, 45, a powerful backstage force on a split court whose majority has shifted from right to left during her tenure. Since her arrival, California’s high court — notorious as recently as a decade ago for its partisanship and division — has voted unanimously in nearly nine out of 10 decisions, a rate that far outstrips the U.S. Supreme Court’s unanimity. https://www.scotusblog.com/2022/02/profile-of-a-potential-nominee-ketanji-brown-jackson/ Even before taking office, President Joe Biden pledged to reshape the federal judiciary. In a December 2020 letter, during his presidential transition, he asked Democratic senators to recommend public defenders and civil rights lawyers, who have generally been underrepresented on the federal bench, for judgeships. If the president nominates Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, who currently sits on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, to fill the vacancy left by the retirement of Justice Stephen Breyer, he will take his mission to diversify professional representation to the next level, putting a former federal public defender on the highest court in the land. If nominated and confirmed, the 51-year-old Jackson would be the first Black woman on the court and also one of the youngest justices – second only to Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who celebrated her 50th birthday on Friday. She would bring a wide range of experiences not only as a public defender but also a federal district judge and a member of the U.S. Sentencing Commission. Jackson has earned high praise from the justice she would replace if nominated: When she was under consideration for her previous job as a federal trial court judge, Breyer described her as “brilliant,” a “mix of common sense” and “thoughtfulness.” And she might enjoy an edge over other candidates because of the prospect that she would have a relatively smooth path to confirmation: She was confirmed to an appellate judgeship less than a year ago with support from three Republican senators, and she is a relative by marriage of former House Speaker Paul Ryan, who ran for vice president on the Republican ticket in 2012. Obama nominated Jackson again on Jan. 4, 2013, and the Senate confirmed her by a voice vote in March. During her seven years as a district judge, Jackson issued several high-profile rulings on topics ranging from federal environmental law to the Americans with Disabilities Act. But none had a higher profile than her decision in Committee on the Judiciary v. McGahn, in which she ruled that Don McGahn, the former White House counsel to President Donald Trump, was required to testify before the House Judiciary Committee as part of its investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and Trump’s possible obstruction of justice, even after Trump had directed him not to do so. In a 118-page opinion, Jackson rejected the contention by Trump’s Department of Justice that federal courts lack the power to review disputes between the executive branch and Congress over subpoenas, as well as its argument that the president has the sole authority to decide whether he and his senior aides will comply with subpoenas to testify about possible wrongdoing in his administration. She stressed that “the primary takeaway from the past 250 years of recorded American history is that Presidents are not kings.” White House employees, she continued, “work for the People of the United States,” and “take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”; the president cannot block them from appearing to testify. McGahn eventually testified before the committee in June 2021, after the DOJ (now under the Biden administration) and the committee reached an agreement for him to do so. In April 2018, Jackson ruled against the Trump administration in a lawsuit brought by federal employee unions challenging three of the president’s executive orders on the collective bargaining rights of federal workers. The unions argued that the orders exceeded the president’s powers and conflicted with both federal labor laws and the employees’ constitutional rights. https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/04/politics/j-michelle-childs-supreme-court-joe-biden/index.html Michelle Childs from South Carolina ss the preferred choice of Democratic Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina, one of the President's top allies. That endorsement, which Clyburn has loudly been making for more than a year. Since her name came up as being on Biden's short list, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham hailed Childs as a brilliant choice, saying, "It's fair to say I think Michelle Childs has a really good chance of getting Republican votes." Another Republican from South Carolina, Sen. Tim Scott, repeated that sentiment: "I think she has a strong record and would be a strong candidate." And Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia echoed the praise, calling Childs "a tremendous, tremendous candidate." Those accolades have been, at the same time, accompanied by criticism from progressive activists and union leaders who suggest Childs' legal record is not sufficiently supportive of worker rights. Childs, who was nominated to the federal bench in 2010 by President Barack Obama, earned degrees from the University of South Florida and the University of South Carolina. Her champions say her state school experience would be a welcome change on the Supreme Court. It puts her in contrast with other top contenders, including Leondra Kruger, who attended Harvard and Yale, and Ketanji Brown Jackson, who attended Harvard. “As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” (Is. 3:12). It is a curse to be ruled by women and children. Yes, God does occasionally raise up a Deborah. It is not automatically in every situation sinful for a woman to have a position of political leadership. But it is a sign of weak men, and weak men is a curse on any society. And widespread rule of a nation by women is a great curse. And until Republicans and Conservatives stop celebrating all the women in politics, we will continue getting more of a Nanny state. In the immortal words of John MacArthur, let the women go home. Go home to the blessing of God. Go home to your husbands and children. Go home to the place where God has promised you great power. I’m all for empowering women. But sending them into combat, whether as pastors or pilots or snipers or judges, is not actually empowering them. Those are not vocations where a woman’s natural strength is fitted to the task. A woman’s God-given glory and strength flows from the home, is centered in the home, because that is where people are made and people are the most potent force in human history. Which incidentally brings us back to protests at a table – the Lords’ Table but also millions of dining room tables and to singing, especially the psalms – the war songs of the church. Psalm of the Day: Psalm 65 https://open.spotify.com/track/4tZsMtu1kW3x38kDB4ug0E?si=5f52bd62b1684661 0:00-1:00 Amen!

"Tooting a horn is not an expression of any great thought I'm aware of," Justice Hugh McLean of the Ottawa Superior Court said. He also said the ban on honking would not rob demonstrators of their right to protest. Journalist Élie Cantin-Nantel tweeted that, so far, the truckers appear to be complying.

Canada's Covid Police Strike Again. Baptist pastor arrested for the second time as Covid-19 infection risk plummets. Watch how his children reacted

Catherine Hankins, the co-chair of Canada's COVID-19 Immunity Task Force, explains why achieving herd immunity may be elusive, but stopping transmission with vaccines can lead to a similar return to some semblance of normalcy — and that should be the focus.

Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister gave a melodramatic, award-worthy performance this week, choking up as he told Manitobans he's the leader they need, and calling people who question his government's lockdown measures “idiots” in the same breath as saying “we're all in this together.” True North's Andrew Lawton explains how that doesn't seem to extend to the people being charged for working and worshipping. Also, how Justin Trudeau has bungled Canada's COVID-19 vaccine procurement. Plus, SecondStreet.org president Colin Craig joins the show to talk about the 1,480 Canadians who died on health care waiting lists last year. Learn more about your ad choices.
