Join us for an engaging new episode of "Dialogue over Division" with Eric Bouchard, MLA for Calgary-Lougheed. Eric shares his journey from a business owner who trusted the government to a resolute political representative, driven by the abrupt shutdown of his business and its impact on him, his family, and his business. In this podcast episode, Eric delves into the importance of civic involvement, highlighting its influence on personal and business affairs. He discusses the lack of transparency in media, another driving force behind his decision to run for elected office and to become a voice for change. Overcoming numerous challenges, he secured a surprising victory in Premier Kenney's former constituency. Together, we explore the hurdles he faced, lessons learned, and the pivotal role of communication in times of division. Eric emphasizes the significance of embracing diverse opinions and the value of respectful disagreement as a means to finding common ground and a course for a more united society. Eric encourages us to step outside our comfort zones and engage in constructive conversations. Be inspired by Eric's story, and discover how one person's actions can have a lasting impact on their community. This podcast series is your guide to becoming a more informed and engaged citizen. It's a call to action for you to take an active role in maintaining the vitality of our democracy.

A lot of ink is being spilled trying to analyze why Premier Kenney failed to maintain the confidence of the United Conservative Party and was forced to resign. Can we really just blame it on the conservative base being angry and reactionary? On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice is joined by former Alberta Finance Minister and longtime conservative scholar Dr. Ted Morton. Candice and Ted discuss the political culture in Alberta, the many missteps made by Premier Kenney, the bad cards he drew and they discuss the future of the party. They also touch on the future of oil and gas in Canada, the many failings of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and why Ted is supporting Pierre Poilievre for leader of the Conservative party of Canada.

United Conservative Party members in Alberta are voting by mail on whether they support Premier Jason Kenney's continued leadership of the party and the province. Premier Kenney joins True North's Andrew Lawton live to discuss his record as premier and UCP leader and make his pitch to voters for why he should remain in office. Also, in an interview with Le Devoir Supreme Court of Canada Chief Justice Richard Wagner condemned politicians who supported the Freedom Convoy, which he accused of taking Ottawa residents "hostage" and unleashing "anarchy" on the city. Do you think this rhetoric is becoming of a judge who might have to preside over convoy-related cases?

Cory starts the show off by expressing doubts in Kenney's leadership future. Guest Brett Wilson joins the show to offer a counterpoint as he endorses Jason Kenney's continued role as UCP leader. Western Standard Alberta legislative Bureau Chief Rachel Emmanuel gives an update on her first couple of weeks in Edmonton.
Cory is triggered by the lack of health care reform efforts in Canada in light of the pandemic response failures. Conservative Party of Canada leadership candidate Joseph Bourgault joins the show to discuss his platform. UCP MLA for Airdrie-Cochrane, Peter Guthrie talks to Cory about his call for Premier Kenney to invoke a full leadership race. Michael Binnion from the Modern Miracle Network discusses the implications and potential impacts of the federal government's latest emission targets.
Dictator Trudeau relinquishes power after embarrassing himself and desecrating his country's honor. The People's Convoy puts it into drive and starts rolling from California towards Washington D.C. We review, including:
People who oppose mandatory masking, Covid vaccinations and mandates as a violation of basic human rights and freedoms need to be reminded that the flip side of freedom is responsibility. The so-called “Freedom Convoy” and their illegal road blockades arguable ignores that principle. This may be their perception of freedom fighting, but reality is, they're more like hostage takers causing movement restriction as well as financial and mental harm to responsible citizens who have done their part getting vaccinated. Alberta's governing party led by Premier Kenney appears reluctant to criticize blockade participants as does many federal opposition MP's. In fact, some of these elected officials seem to outright support these illegal blockades. Their argument ignores that with freedom comes responsibility. Canadian soldiers fought in wars to support democracy and other freedoms. Thousands lost their lives taking up that responsibility. While vaccinations do not completely stop the spread of Covid, it's a very important tool in limiting serious outcomes and hospitalizations. The speaker will argue that a relatively small unruly group of free-spirited men and women ought not to be able to impose “their” idea of freedom on the majority of a country's population. He will further draw on his experience in South Africa during Apartheid as a human rights and international development activist, where he saw first-hand, the results minority rule can have on society. Speaker: Tad Mitsui Tad was born in Japan, did his undergraduate education in Theology in Tokyo and his graduate work in Vancouver and Montreal. He taught at a university in Lesotho, Southern Africa, worked in international development agencies in Geneva, Switzerland, and in Toronto, and was in an administrative position within the United Church bureaucracy in Montreal. Tad is a retired United Church minister.
Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson and Police Deputy Chief Steve Bell take questions from the media and appear to be stumped as to how to respond to the Freedom Trucker Convoy. Today, we review the latest, including:
Homeland security released a statement updating domestic terrorist threat classifications to include conspiracies around the elections and COVID misinformation, Canada's Premier Kenney of Alberta announces partial end to mandates amid trucker potests, meanwhile the U.S. Inspector General opens up an investigation on Capitol police who may be spying on members of congress, and a jury trial has been ordered for CNN's Don Lemon after allegations of sexual assault.

Will the government continue to back off on charges against people refusing to abide by health restrictions?
It's been a year since the WHO declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic, and people are tired. We've seen generosity and altrusm abound, but there are signs people are losing patience, too.

Mercedes Stephenson is joined on 'The West Block' podcast by Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs Dominic LeBlanc, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and U.S. Chargé d'Affaires in Ottawa Katherine Brucker. Minister LeBlanc says Julie Payette's resignation as Canada's governor general “allows the employees of Rideau Hall to have an appropriate workplace and it allows a renewal of the leadership at this important institution.” On U.S. President Joe Biden's move to cancel Keystone XL, Premier Kenney says ‘it's a very bad starting point' for Canada-U.S. relations under a new administration. When asked about Biden's decision, Brucker says “it's important to know that this is a presidential decision based on a larger climate agenda.” See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We play Evan's full interview with MP Derek Sloan who was just ousted from the Conservative caucus. Martin Firestone, a travel insurance broker in Toronto with TravelSecure, talks about Florida cracking down vaccine-tourism.

Publisher Derek Fildebrandt, news editor Dave Naylor and podcast editor Cory Morgan participate in a live broadcast to discuss the week's top stories. In this episode, the pending caucus vote on the fate of MP Derek Sloan is discussed. How will the caucus vote? How bad will the rift be? What was Erin O'Toole thinking? Joe Biden is officially sworn in as President of the United States. What does that mean for Western Canada? Is the Keystone XL pipeline truly dead? How will Premier Kenney deal with the potential and massive loss of taxpayer investment in the pipeline? Manitoba gets on the bandwagon of government's saying "Do as I say, not as I do" when it comes to pandemic lockdown policy.
Publisher Derek Fildebrandt, news editor Dave Naylor, podcast editor Cory Morgan and special guest Quito Maggi from Mainstreet Public research discuss a the conclusions of a number of polls commissioned exclusively by the Western Standard. Albertans want firings for the MLAs who vacationed while we are locked down and many want Premier Kenney's resignation as well. Independence is considered an option by a number of Albertans, particularly when it means all four of the Western provinces as opposed to Alberta going it alone. This is reflected in the growth in support for the still new, Wildrose Independence Party. A majority of Albertans still support lockdowns but that support is fading. While support for independence is on the rise, the federal Maverick Party is yet to capture it.

Albertans are furious at the tone-deaf, elite, entitled arrogance displayed by Premier Jason Kenney, at least one of his Ministers multiple MLAs, and political staffers who travelled to exotic holiday destinations in the midst of a pandemic. Ryan channels public opinion in an unprecedented nearly-hour-long opening statement. We hear from former Deputy Premier Thomas Lukaszuk, former PC Minister Richard Starke, and former PC MLA Jacquie Fenske (now interim Alberta Party leader) to fact check Premier Kenney's more dubious claims (most notably, that he didn't know Minister Tracey Allard and chief of staff Jamie Huckabay left Canada over the Christmas break). Psychiatrist Dr. Peter Silverstone and registered psychologist Kim Knull bring great advice around dealing with anger, and starting fresh in 2021.

The Roy Green Show Podcast - According to polling released yesterday, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is the third most popular Premier in Canada after Francois Legault of Quebec and Scott Moe pf Saskatchewan. To start the podcast, Premier Jason Kenney and Roy discuss the conflict between Alberta and B.C., pipelines and Jagmeet Singh's argument that Quebec must have the right to veto pipelines crossing the province, and climate change as an issue of public attention. They also touch on Premier Kenney's view of Justin Trudeau appearing in blackface and brownface. Guest: Jason Kenney, Premier of Alberta - Following Trump's Whistleblower's complaint, the Democratic Party is launching an official impeachment inquiry. Is President Trump in danger of impeachment and perhaps removal of office over his call and interactions with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky? Or is this a political witch-hunt since the Whistleblower is acting on second-hand information? Guest: Fred Fleitz, Director of the Center for Security Policy in D.C., Served in 2018 as deputy assistant to President Trump and chief of staff to national security adviser John Bolton, 25 years with the CIA and DIA and chief of staff for the NSA. - Ipsos polling for Global News this week found the Conservatives gaining a 4-point lead as Liberals slip in the wake of Trudeau's blackface scandal. Meanwhile, another poll showed that climate change ranks as issue #3 for Canadians, behind health care and affordability. 1 in 3 Canadians wants climate change to be fought even if it hurts the Canadian economy. But half don't want to pay an extra cent. Guest: Sean Simpson. VP. IPSOS Canada - Montreal Economic Institute poll show that Quebecers by 66% majority prefer Western Canadian oil, and 45% of Quebecers prefer pipelines over shipping oil by tanker trucks (14%), rail (13%), or ship (9%). And 79% of Quebecers who voted for Premier Francois Legault and his CAQ government prefer Western Canadian oil over any other sources. This should be raised during the 2019 federal election campaign. Guest: Germain Belzile, Montreal Economic Institute - There are still questions remaining, after the RCMP released their report on B.C. teen killers Bryer Schmegelsky & Kam McLeod.

A new legislative session just started in Alberta, under the leadership of Premier Jason Kenney and the United Conservative Party. They're looking to introduce about a dozen bills, most of which will serve to dismantle climate initiatives implemented by the previous NDP government. Premier Kenney has even named this time ahead as the 'summer of repeal'. CBC Calgary's Allison Dempster explains what's at stake for Albertans, and how this might set up a much greater confrontation between the province and the federal government.
