On this edition of Free City Radio we hear from Indigenous filmmaker Nicolas Renaud critiques Quebec government push to expand corporate clearcutting in Quebec. This discussion focuses specifically on the proposed Bill 97 that will move approximately 1/3 of Quebec's actual territory into what has been described by the right wing government as a 'special economic zone,' which will remove all regulations around both Indigenous land rights and environmental regulations. Indigenous communities have been on the frontlines protesting this bill and the broader colonialist approach to Quebec's remaining forested lands.

What happens when you throw out rigid timelines and arbitrary benchmarks, allowing children to learn at their own pace in ways that honor their unique personalities? Kristi's 11-year homeschooling journey with her three daughters reveals the transformative power of personalized education.When her introverted third-grader with learning difficulties asked to homeschool, Kristi—despite having no prior knowledge of homeschooling—took the leap. Within two years, she brought all three daughters home, discovering that the full benefits came when the entire family shared the same educational approach. This shift opened extraordinary possibilities: four-day school weeks, regular RV camping trips, skiing adventures that started on Thursdays, and meaningful participation in the family's citrus farm.Most remarkably, Kristi's approach to her oldest daughter's learning challenges demonstrates the power of patience and personalization. Working "one to two years behind typical grade level for a very long time" and even repeating ninth grade at the student's request, this daughter eventually caught up naturally. By age 15-16, professional assessments showed she qualified for no learning disorders whatsoever. Today, she attends Concordia University with a substantial academic scholarship.Interest-led learning transformed their homeschool experience. When a child loved horses, they studied equine science for a year. When another was fascinated by birds, they created habitats around their home that now attract unique species their neighbors don't have. Their youngest daughter's inexplicable passion for the Beatles as a preschooler evolved into studying 60s history in ninth grade. As Kristi explains, "I think you get some passionate, extraordinary individuals by really customizing and letting them be interest-led in everything they do."Considering homeschooling? Kristi's advice is refreshingly simple: "Homeschool should and can look different in every single household." You can always return to conventional schooling if needed—they'll take you back.Kristi's Instagram'Homeschooled' the movie: WHERE TO WATCH: https://homeschooledthemovie.com/where-to-watchCurriculum discussed: Teaching Textbooks, Moving Beyond the Page, Apologia, IEW, Amal Unbound, Rutus Apetis, Alan Gratz, Under the Painted SkyCheryl's Guide to Homeschooling: Check out The Homeschool How To Complete Starter Guide- Cheryl's eBook compiling everything she's learned from her interviews on The Homeschool How To Podcast.

Welcome to season 7 of Rector's Cupboard! Do you sometimes feel like all we do is talk about America? While many Canadians would see Canada as distinct from the States, we are influenced by our neighbours to the south. In Alberta, the provincial government is supporting the banning of books. Some of the political and religious currents in Canada look very similar to those in the United States. In the first episode of our new season, we speak with a Canadian writer and professor who has described the relationship of the neo-charismatic Pentecostal movement and the rise of Donald Trump. André Gagné is Chair of the Department of Theological Studies at Concordia University in Montreal. He is also a host of Spirit, State and Society, a podcast exploring how the global Pentecostal and charismatic movements intersect with politics, culture and society. We speak with Gagné about his 2024 book, American Evangelicals for Trump: Dominion, Spiritual Warfare, and End Times. Gagné's book is enlightening if somewhat disturbing. His work speaks not only to the American context, it also brings to mind similarities and differences in Canada. If you'd like to find Gagné's work, such as his podcast and recent articles, you can check out his Concordia faculty page.   Definitions: Expository Preaching – this style of preaching that seeks to detail the meaning and intent of a particular biblical passage.   Articles Discussed: “A shadow war on libraries”, CBC The Fifth Estate, February 7, 2025 “New Alberta school books order bans explicit images of sexual acts”, CBC, September 8,2025 “Man arrested after driving child-size pink Barbie Jeep through Prince George, B.C.”, CBC, September 8, 2025   Tasting Notes: We kicked off the season with two tastings. The first was a lovely 15-Year-Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whiskey from Balblair Distillery, in the North of Scotland. For our second tasting we went a bit more local with Barrel-Aged Family Reserve Gin from Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery. This gin is not your typical gin. While we tasted it neat, if you wanted to mix this, Ken suggests trying a blueberry tea cocktail, with hot tea and an orange slice to bring out the citrus and oak notes in the gin.

In this episode I dive deep with the incredible visionary artist and podcaster Alex Coma.  Our conversation is an incredible discussion about spiritual practice, astrology, and the synchronicities to help guide us on the path of expanding our consciousness.  --------------------------Alex Coma is an interdisciplinary artist exploring the complex intersections between symbolism, consciousness, and esoteric knowledge. A graduate in photography from Concordia University and former scholarship recipient at the Montreal Fine Arts Academy, Coma's practice draws on figures like Arnold Böcklin and Carl Jung. His work navigates between visual art, philosophical investigation, and spiritual exploration, deploying a rigorous methodology that questions symbolic systems, cryptographic elements, and ritual methodologies. For the past decade, Coma has studied under Egyptian spiritual teacher Shri Amir Mourad, developing meditative techniques that enable deeper access to unconscious realms and inform his artistic practice—a disciplined inner exploration that has become instrumental in his ability to perceive increasingly more profound symbolic content and archetypal energies. His works, exhibited internationally at venues including the Visionary Art Collective in New York, the Affordable Art Fair in London and Brussels, and recognized in collections such as Colart and Ubisoft, have been acclaimed by media including CBC Arts, Vie des Arts, and La Presse. In 2023, Coma founded Roze Umbra, an initiative and platform dedicated to visionary artists, extending his commitment to collaborative artistic research that examines the subtle connections between symbolic languages and collective consciousness. As part of this initiative, he created "The Blue Hour Podcast," where he engages with visionary artists worldwide. His approach to all he does is constantly seeking a delicate balance between empirical knowledge and the ineffable mystery, offers an exploration of the borderlands of artistic creation.Websites:  www.alexcoma.worldVisionary Roze Grant: www.rozeumbra.com/visionaryrozegrantInstagram:@alexcoma.world⁠@rozeumbraFollow Martin Benson for more insights:*To stay updated on the podcast and related content, check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*To support the show and access exclusive content, consider subscribing for $0.99/month on Instagram (link above).Credits: Special thanks to Matthew Blankenship of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Sometimes Island⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for our podcast theme music!Support this podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/martin-l-benson/support⁠⁠⁠

Sales Up, Prices Down, Rents Falling — What's Really Going On

The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast

Canada's housing market just dropped a fresh set of numbers, and depending on your lens, the story looks like either the start of a recovery - or the next chapter in a much longer crisis. In this episode of The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast, we take a comprehensive look at the national sales figures, falling rental rates, long-term home price forecasts, softening inflation, and the controversial foreign buyer ban. The narrative forming around Canadian real estate is one of contradiction - where current data trends directly oppose the longer-term projections.Starting with national home sales, July marked the fourth straight month of gains, with sales rising 3.8% month-over-month and a cumulative 11.2% increase since March. The GTA led the rebound, surging 35.5% from spring lows. Year-over-year, sales rose 6.6%. However, new listings and inventory remained virtually flat, with total active listings up 10.1% from last year. Despite these gains, sales volumes remain historically low. Benchmark prices are still down 3.4% compared to last year, though average prices are up a modest 0.6%, painting a picture of a market in limbo — balanced, but directionless.On the rental front, data from Rentals.ca and Urbannation shows a surprising national decline of 3.7% in average rents, bringing the Canadian average to $2,121/month. Vancouver saw a notable 9% drop year-over-year, with tenants now spending 37.5% of their income on rent — well above the 30% affordability threshold. One-bedroom units in North Vancouver now average $2,630, the highest in the country. However, the GTA presents a dramatically different picture. A report shows that Toronto is on track for a 235,000-unit rental deficit over the next decade, driven by a collapse in condo presales and a 50% drop in housing starts. Meanwhile, a new long-term forecast from Concordia University suggests that Vancouver detached home prices, currently averaging $2.4 million, could reach $3 million by 2032. Even if housing completions double — a goal many doubt is achievable — prices are still projected to rise to $2.8 million. On paper, this equates to a manageable 3.2% annual increase, yet it underscores the structural imbalance in supply and demand that continues to define Vancouver's market.One of the most thought-provoking topics in this episode is the renewed conversation around Canada's foreign buyer ban. Developers are lobbying to lift the ban for pre-construction units to revive sales, but public sentiment remains firmly opposed. Yet few acknowledge the irony: Canadians are the second-largest group of foreign buyers in the U.S., purchasing $6.2 billion worth of real estate in the past year. While countries like New Zealand and Switzerland restrict foreign ownership, Canadians remain free to buy abroad without similar restrictions. The U.S. has not imposed any such ban — and Canadians continue to snap up property there, especially in Florida.Ultimately, this episode doesn't offer a clean conclusion because the data doesn't either. Sales are up, but from record lows. Prices are down, but future projections remain more bullish. Rents are falling in the West but threaten to explode in the GTA in the years to come.  _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Harrison is also active in the prolife movement and frequently speaks at such events. A native of Sioux City, Iowa, Harrison holds a bachelor's degree in religious studies from Morningside University in Sioux City, Iowa. He attended Concordia University, Nebraska, in 1984. He has M.Div. and S.T.M. degrees from Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne. Harrison has pursued additional graduate study at Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, and Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne. Furthermore, he has received honorary doctorates from Concordia University Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor, Mich., and Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne.

Class is back in session, Ladies — one more time (for now)!  Sarah wraps up her studies at Concordia University Irvine's Townsend Institute for Counseling and Leadership as she revisits her capstone project on humor in the workplace and celebrates the completion of her M.A. in organizational leadership. She also gives Erin and Rachel an eye-opening crash course in different types of humor and how they contribute (or don't) to workplace morale, team building, and productivity.   Is your favorite style of humor affiliative, self-enhancing, self-defeating, or aggressive? Listen in to find out what those terms mean and which is your default — and learn, too, about how to optimize your use of humor to bring people together and get things done.   “I hope you're inspired to think about humor in a different way,” says Sarah. “Being funny, witty, or engaging in banter isn't just a cute thing to do. It has real positive impacts not only in the workplace, but in relationships and in your own mental health.”  At the end of the episode, Sarah announces her next big academic adventure: Concordia Seminary's Online Deaconess Studies program.
