Prime Minister Mark Carney?

As clear of an indication that Canadians could get – former central banker and consultant Mark Carney is planning to enter the Liberal leadership race to become Canada’s next prime minister. Strangely, Carney chose the American Daily Show platform as his campaign launch site and not a Canadian media platform. But Carney wil have to compete with Chrystia Freeland for the top job, setting the stage for a very interesting few months ahead. On this episode of The Northern Dispatch, Harrison, Ryan and Tanya analyze the Liberal leadership race, look at some of Carney’s most infamous moments and take a look back at Canadian history for recent examples of prime ministers without a seat in the House of Commons.

Trudeau is OUT...sort of

The second week of 2025 was one of the wildest weeks for Canada in recent memory. It began with the much anticipated resignation announcement from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau – but it wasn’t exactly a resignation announcement. It was more an “intention to resign” announcement to Canadians. That was quickly followed by a threat to annex Canada through “economic force” from incoming U.S. president-elect Donald Trump and renewed taunts by Trump towards Justin Trudeau. All of this now forms the backdrop for a Liberal party leadership race that will likely result in the winner becoming Canada’s next prime minister. Tune in to the latest episode of Northern Dispatch with Harrison Faulkner from True North and Ryan and Tonya from Northern Perspective.

Fake News Awards of 2024

It’s that time of the year again — The Fake News Awards! Every year, we award the legacy media with this prestigious award for spreading fake news and getting caught red-handed. 2024 had no shortages of fake news. From CTV News purposely doctoring footage of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre to the underreported story of the dozens of churches in Canada that have been burned down, the legacy media has truly done a disservice to Canadians. Tune into The Northern Dispatch with Harrison Faulkner and Northern Perspective’s Ryan and Tanya!

Will Trudeau make it to the next election?

Things keep getting worse for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Chrystia Freeland resigned, the Liberals suffered another embarrassing byelection defeat, and a growing list of Liberal MPs are calling for Trudeau to step down. Will he make it to the next election at this rate? Who would take his place? As most Canadians know, Jagmeet Singh and the NDP hold the balance of power in the House of Commons, and an election is dependent on them voting non-confidence. Coincidentally, the NDP won’t be triggering an election until Singh gets his pension. We discuss a tumultuous week in Ottawa today on The Northern Dispatch with True North’s Harrison Faulkner and The Northern Perspective’s Ryan and Tanya.

Justin Trudeau is gaslighting Canadians

A record amount of Canadians are using food banks, many young Canadians still can’t afford to own a home and unemployment is the highest since 2017. But according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Canadian economy is doing fine. In fact, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland wants you to think there isn’t a recession happening in Canada but instead a “vibecession.” True North’s Harrison Faulkner, the Northern Perspective’s Ryan and Tanya, and Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Association Franco Terrazzano discuss how the Trudeau government is gaslighting Canadians about the state of the economy.
