From Justin Trudeau singing his heart out to Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre battling out with Global News journalist David Akin, Emmanuel expresses distrust in the leaders of the major political parties.

GUEST HOST: David Menzies Global News, along with its corporate master, Corus Entertainment Inc., are having a bad month. While the month isn't quite yet over, September has been brutally embarrassing for the Global News propaganda arm of the Trudeau Liberals. Indeed, to paraphrase a Queen Elizabeth descriptor, it has been mensis horribilus — a.k.a., a month of disaster and misfortune. And as we proceed with the autopsy, where does one even begin? On tonight's show, we'll look at the actions of two Global News journalists, David Akin and Rachel Gilmore. GUEST: Franco Terrazzano of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. FINALLY: Your messages to me!

A recent encounter between Pierre Poilievre and David Akin of Global News demonstrates the tactics politicians have been using to avoid accountability.

Today's podcast: Pierre Poilievre romps to victory in Conservative leadership race earning 70% of the vote on the first ballot, launching a new era in Cdn politics. But what does this era look like? David Akin. Chief political correspondent - Global News. For any Conservative leader, there is a lot of fertile ground. Public dissatisfaction with the Liberals, the policy files that seem to be a mess of the moment. Pierre Poilievre represents a different approach from a conservative perspective, that the Liberals might want to pay attention to. Brian Lilley. Political columnist - Toronto Sun. 7 months ago, Putin apologiests bought into the hype of the Russian War Machine, touting the speculated "swiftness" of Russian victory in Ukraine. That thought didn't age well, especially as Ukrainian forces have begun a remarkable and brilliant counter-offensive. As of Thursday, Ukrainian President Vlodamir Zelensky announced that 1000 km2 of territory had been seized by Ukrainian troops, That number continues to rise. Adam Zivo. Independent journalist/columnist. Canadian supply of blood plasma is vital. As it stands now, Canadian Blood Services collects 15% of Canada's plasma supply, the rest from the US. And in the US, it's common place for plasma donors to be compensated. There are some ethical issues that arise from this of course, which is why we've seen outrage by the notion that we might move in that direction. Canadian Blood Services has signed a deal with a private, for-profit company to collect plasma from donors here in Canada, with the goal of increasing our domestic supply. Angela Diano. Executive Director - Alpha-1 Canada. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Rob Breakenridge Technical Producer – Dusty Lalas Podcast Producer – Tom McKay If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!
