Ryan Bridge: The Opportunity Party needs more time to hit five percent this election

I don't think Opportunity will hit five percent this election. It's fun to flirt, people are frustrated, but I was there when Colin Craig got close and failed, saw Gareth Morgan then Geoff Simmons have a crack and fail. I encourage anyone listening to have a look at their policies, do the maths and figure out for themselves how much worse, or better off, you'll be. Their new leader is a great communicator. Her main job was an environmental/carbon advisor to businesses. I don't really know what that means, but she's really lovely. The problem with getting to five percent is timing. The closer we get to election, this flirt, this fascination, this honeymoon, if you will, will have worn off. Voters go into the booth trying to keep one side in, or one side out. There's little room for flights of fancy in the polling booth. The other thing people do in the polling booth is take out insurance. By election week it's pretty clear, if you're listening, who is doing well and who is not. So, voters take out insurance, it's why I've said consistently since last year that Winston will do well this year. Labour voters, not National, will slide into his DMs. He's offering them everything Hipkins is short of a Labour government on everything to from stopping asset sales to nationalising industry. One of TOP's charms is that you don't know which way they'll go, It's also their biggest weakness. They're unlikely to get the vast majority of their policies into a coalition agreement, so you're basically voting for who gets the keys to the kingdom. And with TOP, you just don't know, and I think that'll be too big a risk for most to take come November 7th.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

March 22 2026- Son Says "No Justice, No Explanation" From NDP For Debbie Fewster's Death

In Episode 13, you'll hear about the case of Debbie Fewster, whose heart finally gave out while she was waiting for cardiac surgery. As her son Daniel explains, the delay occurred because the requisition was put in the wrong pile.Read our report in the Winnipeg Sun: Fewster death exposes NDP's lack of competence, and compassion9.50 Part 2- When a family entrusts the life of their mother to Manitoba's health care professionals, they don't expect to ever hear that "human error" caused her to die. "It's so much worse than we thought," Daniel Fewster says. As we reported last year, the family believed the issue was surgical wait times, but an internal investigation dug up the real reason. He explains how his mother, a retired Niverville health care aid, received medication to ensure she didn't take up a hospital bed, but that resulted in her being considered an "outpatient." Debbie's file was tossed into a 180-day 'surgery can wait' pile. That case management system was invented as a COVID measure and was never reviewed by the NDP. "There are fundamental breakdowns in communication between the health regions."25.09 Part 3- “There's no justice, there's no explanation, it's just, your mom died cause there was a mistake, have a good day... there's a level of pain that comes with that.”Is this death just the cost of doing business for the NDP?“It's made me nervous. I sure hope I don't get sick and haveto go to the hospital. Man, to be on this side of losing a loved one to a medical error like that sure doesn't help your trust in the system.” 41.18 - Marty asks Daniel about whether this case also proves there was no review of the patient files after being placed in the 'outpatient' file to make sure those cases didn't require urgent attention.The reaction of reporters at the press conference, hosted by SecondStreet.org, was "a silent gasp, like, my gosh, this actually happened in Canada." 44.00- As Second Street president Colin Craig discovered, “Government documents show no staffhave received any disciplinary action for this tragedy.”The discussion wraps up with the lack of accountability for government institutions compared to deaths that occur within private industry; the status of Debbie's Law, and why it is still needed; and how the NDP's Bill 27 serves to protect the bureaucrats and politicians like Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara, not the patients or the public. *******Read our report- Kinew delays consumption site rolloutWe have led the way in holding the Kinew government to account for fake public consultations, withholding information, and dubious harm reduction policies proposed for a drug user site. *****The mandate of ActionLine.ca is to carry on the hard-nosed, ask tough questions approach pioneered on Winnipeg radio by Peter Warren.

Did you know that nearly 75,000 Canadians have died while waiting for care since 2018? More than 28,000 died in 2024 alone. This is not normal. Canada needs to get serious about reforms to our healthcare system. Candice is joined by Colin Craig of SecondStreet.Org to discuss his new documentary Fixing Canada's Health Care: Lessons from Japan. Candice and Colin discuss the major differences between our two country's universal healthcare systems, and how Japan rewards innovation and growth while Canada punishes and restricts those things. Colin discusses new changes coming in Alberta that could make that province a leader in health reform, and they discuss how more and more Canadians want change and are open to innovations and changes to our healthcare model. Candice discusses a recent poll that showed half of young Canadians wanted more private options in our healthcare system.

True North's Andrew Lawton says this might be a bit of a reprieve for Canadians who want the governments hands off their content.

In this episode of Borderless, Vale sits down with Colin Craig, president of SecondStreet.org. SecondStreet.org is an Atlas Network partner dedicated to exploring how government policies impact the lives of everyday Canadians. Recently, they have focused on the negative side effects of Canada's single-payer healthcare system. Craig mentions that this structure leads to significant government control over patients lives in Canada and a government monopoly over healthcare services. Inefficiency is rampant, leading to poor business practices and bad outcomes for many patients.That government monopoly often leads to shortages in medical care and long waiting lists even for desperately needed procedures. Many patients suffer and some even die while waiting for life-saving care. Canadians who have the financial means often resort to seeking care in the United States or even further afield to escape the waiting lists. Craig is concerned by this reality, and he says it will continue to be a problem in the future. The sooner everyday Canadians are aware of these issues, the sooner they can find a solution.Stay in the know by following us on social media:https://twitter.com/AtlasNetworkhttps://www.instagram.com/atlasnetwork/https://www.facebook.com/atlasnetwork/Support the Atlas Network Mission Today: https://www.atlasnetwork.org/donate

The Canadian Association of Journalists is calling on the RCMP to investigate Maxime Bernier for hate speech because he tweeted a few reporters' work email addresses and asked his supporters share what they think with them.

Also, SecondStreet.org president Colin Craig joins the show to discuss the growing disparity between private and public sector pay, plus why Jason Kenney thinks Erin O'Toole should get to stay on as Conservative leader.
