For years Canadian governments, both federal and provincial, have touted the success of wooing electric car manufacturing to our nation. Doug Ford loves to talk about the multi-billion dollar deal with Volkswagen that has yet to materialize. Have Canadians been grifted? Will any of these projects get off the ground? Jay Goldberg is with the Consumer Choice Center- he has been keeping an eye on all of these wasted dollars and cents - he joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
With Bill C-2, Mark Carney is preparing a massive overreach and invasion of freedom. With this new Bill the government will gain the ability to surveil all Canadians without a warrant. And the Carney Government is also awarding itself the power in C-5 to fast track projects that it picks. But is this last power the trade-off for getting things done? Michael Diamond is with The Upstream Strategy Group - he joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In the early days of Mark Carney on the job he was signing documents in a way that served to make things look like he was in the Oval Office south of the border! Is this the beginning of a dog and pony show where our new Prime Minister is ensuring that he has control of all aspects of government? And should we be worried? At the very least we should be paying close attention to this - because this is very similar to how Justin Trudeau ran his government. Joanna Baron is with the Canadian Constitution Foundation - she IS paying attention to this - and she joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

Remember Al Gore declaring that we were all going to drown? Here we are many years later - and still surviving. We have now scared the crap out of a generation of people who believe that the world will end soon. On top of that, we are dealing with the economic fallout from reckless carbon taxes. The new Mark Carney government has said that it has seen the error in its ways - but here we are and net zero is still the policy in place. Dan McTeague is a former Liberal MP - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
With the election firmly in our rearview mirror, Leger Polling asked Canadians how they feel about the results. Even Albertans are prepared to give Carney a chance. And It is heartening to hear that Canadians are satisfied with their vote, and they trust the results of the election - but it's a mixed bag to say whether or not Canadians are happy. Andrew Enns is the Executive Vice President of Leger Polling - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
On the campaign trail, Mark Carney won the trust of Canadians with his experience of being a banker. Now that he's in government he's talking about how he's cutting spending … while also trying to build infrastructure. How can you cut spending - and spend more money? Well - you get creative with the accounting and pretend that you have 2 budgets- an operating budget and a capital budget. But is this accounting just smoke and mirrors? Jay Goldberg is with the Consumer Choice Center- he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes to discuss this. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Pierre Poilievre had to kill Justin Trudeau to get ahead as the Leader of the Conservatives … and he succeeded. But did this taint his position as the Leader of the Opposition - especially considering that most Canadians don't have an appetite for nasty politics? And now - Mark Carney's policies are looking an awful lot like what the Poilievre Conservatives were pushing. What must the Conservatives do to pick up the momentum that they lost with the change in Liberal leadership? Dan McTeague is a former Liberal MP - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Mark Carney has made it clear that the days of the woke Trudeau government are over - and we are heading for years of economic growth being the priority. With the Liberal Party moving to the right, will the left- leaning Liberals abandon the party and head to the NDP? This about- face for the Liberals may benefit the Conservatives but not in the way they thought. Andrew Perez is a Liberal Strategist he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In an about- face Mark Carney has decided it's time to get tough on crime - It's time to embrace natural resources … What is going on with this major reversal of Trudeau Dogma? Can the Conservatives re-invent themselves to win back the surge of support they saw mere months before the election? Andrew Perez is a Liberal strategist - and he joins Stephen LeDrew to offer some advice to the Conservative party for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Now that we have decided that we were “afraid” of Pierre Poilievre, it's time to take a sober look at the leader we elected. Mark Carney - who called the Freedom Convoy protestors ‘seditious' - who has said he's going to fast track infrastructure projects “as long as they adhere to the previous government's idea of green standards”… or as stated in his book “believes in an open market… as long as it is approved by him”.

Canadians rejoiced when they saw relief at the pumps with the axing of the Carbon Tax. But there is more at play than taxes. The gasoline market is run in the United States - and the drop in the Canadian dollar is negatively affecting the price of gas. Supply is lower - and demand is higher. Dan McTeague joins Stephen LeDrew to try to maybe share a glimmer of hope… for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Leger Polling recently asked Canadians if they considered the United States an enemy - and a surprising number of people (30%) responded “yes”. The continued and erratic threats and tariffs coming from south of the border have been raining chaos on the Canadian economy. Meanwhile in Canada, we had a first ministers meeting that is easily the most successful in the past decade. We could be witnessing the erasure of inter-provincial trade barriers. Is this a glimmer of hope that the Canadian economy can get on track? Andrew Enns is the Executive Vice President at Leger - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

Canada has become a security risk in the world. We are being excluded in security and military strategy by countries that have long been allies - like the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia. Who can blame them? Thanks to woke immigration policies and lax policing this country is a playground for foreign bad actors. Poor background checks have allowed hundreds of terrorists into the country - and a catch and release justice system makes sure that criminals remain free.

Canadian History has been under attack for the past several years. There is an obsession from woke left ideologues that we must “de-colonize” Canada. And that anything having to do with the creation of our country is inherently bad. But as the depth of cultures in Canada continues to grow can we get to a point where we can accept the fact that your history - is probably going to piss off someone else. Christopher Dummitt is a Canadian History Professor at Trent University - and he is the host of a new YouTube channel called “Well, That Didn't Suck!”. He joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Throne Speech was recently delivered by the new Liberal Government. But wait a minute… this speech could have been written by a Progressive Conservative! Obviously Mark Carney is the opposite of everything that Justin Trudeau stood for. So was Justin Trudeau really a Liberal? Or a socialist just using the Liberal Party! And if things are so different, why are there so many former Trudeau ministers in his cabinet? Andrew Perez is a Liberal Strategist - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

AI is a tool that has gone mainstream - there are clear benefits, but also concerns for how it may be used maliciously. How do we create controls for AI? Is it too late? What is the worst case scenario? Can we lose control of AI? Dave Signoretti is the owner of Xstat a company that specializes in AI in the medical realm - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. In this episode, Michael tries to play the Dad Card ("I'm the dad, so I get to decide") while also being shamed for not knowing much about his kid. It's not going to go well for him. Mentioned: A Design Mom argument on how dads can really protect their kids (hint: they don't need guns).Next Tuesday, we'll continue with season 2, episodes 23 and 24, "Live Together, Die Alone" (the two-part season finale). Tomorrow, we'll continue our discussion of a newer show, Running Point.
Bryan Gould, the CEO of Aspenleaf Energy Limited, shares some opinions about climate change and how to live with it. He strongly believes that we should be able to have a conversation about Climate Change - without cancelling anyone who speaks out against the government narrative. How can we have an open discussion about something that will impact every single Canadian without anyone being able to question decisions being made? He joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Government signed a warrant during the election that saw 40 billion dollars leave the coffers. Among this spending was an additional $150 million for the CBC,and more for CN Rail, Parks Canada … This occurred, but nowhere was this reported in the legacy media. How can we continue to allow Government to waste our money with no accountability?

The old adage of you reap what you sow is especially true for the NDP. A party that once spoke to the working man has been infiltrated by woke elite nincompoops who care more for their woke notion of virtue than reality. Even Jagmeet Singh didn't win his own seat - but who can blame NDP voters for shifting to the Liberals or Conservatives - The Singh NDP propped up a corrupt Liberal government for years - and even the Unions are starting to throw their support behind the Conservatives. It's going to be a long road to rebuild the party - André Proulx is an NDP supporter and the Producer of this Channel - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

Mark Carney has boasted that he's going to make Canada's economy the strongest in the G7. But when he unveiled his cabinet it contained many discredited Trudeau faces. Some people are cynical that this is simply another version of the Trudeau Government - Ministers such as Steven Guilbeault, Mélanie Joly, Chrystia Freeland, FP Champagne, Anita Anand, Sean Fraser, are all holding major portfolios. Is there anything to be hopeful for? Patrick Gossage is the former press secretary to Pierre Elliott Trudeau - and he joins Stephen LeDrew to offer some insight into what is going on in Ottawa for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

Each Tuesday, we discuss an older entertainment property, and currently, that's Lost. In this episode, the title of which is indeed simply a punctuation mark, a lot of dreams and a few flashbacks led us to... another hatch, which spies on the original hatch.

A cornerstone of the trade war with the United States has centred around the Auto Industry in Canada. Is it time for Canada to admit that this industry is leaving Canada? It seems that it stays afloat thanks to government subsidies - and we all remember the bailout packages in the last economic downturn. But are we able to replace all these manufacturing jobs?

Now that we can take a moment to reflect on the election that recently passed, we need to ask the question - Is there a bright future for the Conservative party? This is the party that has now lost four elections in a row… and in the most recent one, blowing a 25 point lead in the polls! Is this just the Trump factor? Or are the Conservatives out of touch with the majority of Canadians? John Capobianco is a bigshot Conservative - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

We know that The Chinese Communist Party loves to interfere in Canadian elections - we have discussed its influence with Canadian elections and candidates often in the past year. Its goal is to change Canadian decisions in its favour.Is it only a matter of time before we hear more evidence about how foreign agents tampered in this election? Will Mark Carney do anything to stop this from happening? Dean Baxendale is the CEO and President of Optimum Publishing - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
It is clear that both Trudeaus - Pierre and Justin - were good at one thing … alienating Western Canada. In his victory speech Mark Carney talked about how he was going to win back Western Canada. The Trudeau Liberals were hell bent on stopping and punishing anyone who wanted to stick a shovel in the ground to make Canada prosperous. Will we see an about face from Carney? Marc Kealey is a bigshot Liberal - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Dean Baxendale is the CEO and President of Optimum Publishing-as such he is an expert in foreign affairs. Over the years he has convened many meetings with Asian and American officials - publishing many books detailing espionage and foreign interference. Now that the election is in our rear view mirror is it time to look ahead … the threat from the United States seems to continue. Donald Trump continues to broadcast on social media his nonsense about the 51st state. Dean sits down with Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast.

The election results were a great disappointment to the Conservative party who mere months ago had a 25 point lead over the Justin Trudeau Liberals. How do you blow a 25 point lead … and remain leader of the party? Yes - the Conservatives are sending more MP's to Ottawa - but is this electoral loss an indictment on how unlikeable Pierre Poilievre is as a leader? Or how people generally feel about the party? John Capobianco is a bigshot Conservative - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Everyone is cheering that the price of gas has taken a big drop with the PAUSE on the carbon tax. And while Carney is talking about the consumer carbon tax being gone - he is talking about leaving the industrial carbon tax intact. If industry ends up paying more for pollution - who do you think is going to pay for it? Dan McTeague is a former Liberal MP - and energy industry expert - and he knows exactly how this is going to make your life more expensive. He joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes.

Julie Brill joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about growing up the daughter of a Holocaust survivor and her journey to understand the unexamined childhood stories she grew up with, being a reluctant memoirist and leaning into telling the story of an ordinary person figuring things out, the Holocaust and the history of the Jews of Serbia, inherited memories, making ourselves the central character, when our parents' foundational stories become ours, finding our place, permission to tell a story if you didn't live through it, and her new memoir HIdden in Plain Sight: A Family Memoir and the Untold Story of the Holocaust in Serbia. Also in this episode: -the missing missing -the unthought known -making research readable Books mentioned in this episode: Three Minutes in Poland by Glenn Kertz Paper Love by Sarah Wildman Plunder by Menachem Kaiser Big Magic by Liz Gilbert The Creative Process by Twyla Tharp As a child, Julie Brill held two conflicting beliefs. She knew Germans had murdered her Jewish grandfather in occupied Yugoslavia, yet she somehow believed the Holocaust had never come to his hometown of Belgrade. The family anecdotes her father passed down, a blend of his early memories and what his mother told him, didn't match what Julie had heard about Germany, Poland, and Anne Frank in Holland during World War II. Even frequent readers of Holocaust history likely do not understand the Serbian story. Destruction there came early and fast. Without cattle cars, gas chambers, or distant camps, the Nazis murdered almost the entire Jewish population before the plan for the Final Solution was even set. With so few Jewish survivors and descendants from Serbia, the story of the Shoah there has gone untold. Julie's quest to understand and share what she learned led to Hidden in Plain Sight: A Family Memoir and the Untold Story of the Holocaust in Serbia. Julie has written for Haaretz, the Forward, Kveller, The Times of Israel, Balkan Insight, and elsewhere. She shares her family's experiences in the Holocaust in middle and high school classrooms through Living Links. Additionally, Julie is a lactation consultant, doula, childbirth educator, and the author of the anthology Round the Circle: Doulas Share Their Experiences. She began attending births and teaching childbirth classes in 1992 and has supported thousands of families in the childbearing year. She graduated from Tufts University with a degree in Sociology and Gender Studies and completed the Massachusetts Midwifery Alliance Apprenticeship Course. She is the mother of two adult daughters.

Do your mornings start with chaos and a mental to-do list that never ends? What would shift in your day if you took just three intentional minutes for yourself each morning? In this deeply affirming and humorous episode, Colleen O'Grady welcomes Erin Morrison, author of Three Minutes for Mom: 365 Days of Empowerment, Encouragement, and Growth for a More Connected Motherhood. Erin shares how a simple daily practice—rooted in short reflections and compassionate reminders—can transform a mother's emotional landscape. From real talk on “mom bods” and meltdowns to metaphors like “feelings are like laundry,” the conversation covers how small mindset shifts can help moms feel more grounded, connected, and confident. Erin emphasizes that empowerment doesn't mean being perfect—it means believing in your goodness, even on the messy days. Together, Colleen and Erin remind moms that it's not personal—it's developmental—and that motherhood is an ongoing experiment, not a performance. As the creator of The Conscious Mom, Erin's approach to motherhood gives mothers exactly what they need: tools to make tiny shifts and create big change. With two master's degrees in Counseling from Columbia University and a specialization in conscious parenting, Erin uses her down-to-earth, non-judgmental style to help mothers f feel more confident, connected & calm. As a mom of two, she understands the dynamics of parenting-and lives them herself so she can help parents everywhere dramatically and positively improve their relationships with their children. Three Takeaways: You don't have to be perfect to be a great mom. Let go of the pressure to get it all right. What your kids need most is your presence, not your perfection. Start your day with you. Taking just a few minutes in the morning for reflection, gratitude, or a grounding ritual can completely change your energy—and what you bring to your family. Believe in your child, even when you can't believe their story. When your teen spirals into dramatic thinking, stay grounded. Your belief in them—even when they don't believe in themselves—is an anchoring force.

In a candid and insightful conversation, Tara and Erin Morrison, creator of The Conscious Mom, unpack the realities of modern motherhood. They highlight the crucial role of self-care and connection, while advocating for finding joy in the ordinary. Erin's book, 'Three Minutes for Mom,' serves as a practical guide, encouraging mothers to embrace their authentic selves and recognize their inherent value. Addressing the challenges of parenting in a competitive environment, they champion simple, joyful moments with children. The discussion extends to actionable strategies, including low-effort family activities, the benefits of supervised boredom for child development, and the importance of understanding child behavior as developmental rather than personal. They stress the power of small, manageable changes in parenting, prioritizing quality time over striving for perfection, and navigating the overwhelming information landscape with authenticity.

We have The Conscious Mom on the pod! So grateful to have had this chat with Erin Morrison - she shared all her wisdom on how parents can cultivate deeper connections with their children by leading with intention and authenticity.

Vandalism, kidnapping, chicken throwing, and social commentary abound, and now, It Happened One Year brings you the whole approximate tale with its sixth fully-scripted production!

The Setting Trick: Conversations with World Class Bridge Players
Ep. 87 Tuva Nilsmark: BridgeQueen Today's guest is Tuva Nilsmark, who goes by BridgeQueen on YouTube. As a bridge lover and social media user, Tuva saw a gap in the YouTube landscape for bridge videos that are light, short, easy to understand, and fun to watch. She fills that gap with her tutorials and weekly Funbridge Friday videos, hoping to inspire new players to hone their skills. Bridge isn't just community for Tuva – it's a part of her family. Tuva's boyfriend is Simon Ekenberg, whom she met through bridge. She also picked up bridge as a teenager to play with her grandparents, whom she promptly abandoned for stronger players. Boye Brogeland suggested I interview Tuva for this episode.

"We have Jesus. We will hang him unless the police leave five cases of Budweiser here January 1st." This was the anonymous ransom demand left at the scene of the nativity heist that made international news out of Fitchburg, Massachusetts in December of 1984. But the identity of the culprits and their true motives were a mystery to law enforcement and the rosary-clutching public. Was the objection on religious grounds? Was it someone with a vendetta against the Fitchburg police? Or was it all a light-hearted prank that got out of hand? The fourth and final scripted episode from It Happened One Year for 1984, Three Minutes to Midnight imagines the daring crimes and colorful figures involved in this semi-forgotten incident, brought to life by dozens of members from the Mighty IHOY Players! Tune back in March 14th & 21st for the epic, two-part tale!

Today Justin talks to retired Special Agent Joe Navarro. Joe spent 25 years with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, primarily working on counterintelligence investigations. He is also a founding member of the National Security Division Behavioral Analysis Program, which focused on the behavior of spies, terrorists, and criminals. During his career, Joe developed tremendous expertise in nonverbal communication and body language, and after retiring, went on to write the international bestseller, What Everybody Is Saying, which teaches anyone how to improve their own nonverbal communication skills and situational awareness. Since then, he's also written several other books on body language, interview techniques, and human psychology, among other subjects. He's here to discuss a case from his time with the FBI, on which he's also written a book. In 1988, an interview with a U.S. soldier named Rod Ramsey led Joe and his fellow agents deep into a case of Cold War espionage now known as the Conrad Spy Ring.Connect with Joe:jnforensics.comCheck out the book, Three Minutes to Doomsday, here.https://a.co/d/gqKDCZHConnect with Spycraft 101:Get Justin's latest book, Murder, Intrigue, and Conspiracy: Stories from the Cold War and Beyond, here.spycraft101.comIG: @spycraft101Shop: shop.spycraft101.comPatreon: Spycraft 101Find Justin's first book, Spyshots: Volume One, here.Check out Justin's second book, Covert Arms, here.Download the free eBook, The Clandestine Operative's Sidearm of Choice, here.Support the show
