On today's episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice breaks an EXCLUSIVE news story that the Liberal Government refuses to share exit tracking data on those ‘temporary' visitors whose visas have expired and those who are illegally in Canada. That's right. The Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) tracks if a temporary foreign worker or international student hops on a flight and leaves Canada. But suspiciously, they won't share the numbers! Apparently, the government doesn't want the public to know how many ‘temporary' visitors are over-staying their visas, remaining here illegally. Why does this matter? The Carney Government's 2025 immigration plan assumes that 1.2 million ‘temporary' residents will VOLUNTARILY leave the country once their visas expire. But nobody will track them down. Could many of them decide to stay illegally, joining the estimated 500,000 illegals already in Canada (Ottawa's own estimate). This story – and their refusal to share data with journalists – shows the Liberal government's refusal to take illegal immigration seriously. Later in the episode, Candice is joined by Conservative MP and the Shadow Minister of Immigration Michelle Rempel Garner. They discuss our exclusive story and the broader problem of relying on ‘temporary' immigrants to voluntarily leave the country on their own. Next, they discuss Pierre Poilievre's BIG announcement yesterday that the Conservatives are calling for an END to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Candice shares clips of Pierre discussing this policy announcement and his response to those who say businesses need this type of foreign labour. She also shares a clip of Prime Minister Mark Carney justifying the program because big corporations like it. Candice asks Michelle why the Conservatives didn't announce this program sooner and why they didn't run on it during the recent election, and Michelle explains how they got here. Finally, Michelle Rempel Garners SLAMS the Carney Liberals for their repeated attacks on free speech and the independent media in light of Ottawa's criminal investigation into Juno News and our reporter Keean Bexte.

Watch Here: https://youtu.be/z8KS8QucurA Emilie Dye sits down with Senator James Paterson, Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and Cybersecurity, to discuss the challenges facing democracies in an increasingly digital world. Should the government attempt to regulate against misinformation? Is TikTok spying on us for China? What about manipulating our election? Is Australia on track to become a vasal state to China? Can we really trust the United States, particularly under a Trump administration? The conversation explores concerns about foreign interference in elections, the influence of social media platforms like TikTok, and how authoritarian regimes may leverage technology to shape public opinion. Senator Paterson highlights why Taiwan's future is critical to Australia's security, the importance of transparency in combating misinformation, and the role of international partnerships in maintaining a free and open society. This episode of Liberalism in Question unpacks the issues shaping Australia's democratic resilience and global stability. #LiberalismInQuestion #Democracy #Cybersecurity #JamesPaterson #Australia #TikTok #ForeignInterference #Taiwan #GlobalPolitics All our links: https://linktr.ee/centreforindependentstudies

It has been yet another tumultuous week for the Church of England, which has seen another bishop resign and yet more pressure on the interim leader, Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell. Julie Etchingham speaks to the Archdeacon of Liverpool, the Venerable Miranda Threlfall-Holmes, who signed the letter asking her Bishop to step aside, and hears from Alicia Kearns, Shadow Minister for Safeguarding and Preventing violence against women and girls who is calling for a Royal Commission to look at safeguarding in the Church. Dr Rowan Williams, theologian and former Archbishop of Canterbury, has written a new book called 'Discovering Christianity: A Guide for the Curious'. He speaks about the themes of the book, the current situation with the Church of England and his thoughts on the discussions around Christianity at the top of US politics.There have been encouraging scenes in Israel and Gaza this weekend with a far more orderly handover of hostages from Hamas. The Rafah crossing was also opened, allowing the evacuation of Gazans needing medical care into Egypt. We hear the latest on the ongoing situation.Presenter: Julie Etchingham Producers: Bara'atu Ibrahim and Linda Walker Studio Mangers: Carwyn Griffith and Jonathan Esp Editor: Dan Tierney
