aflevering Lies, Tantrums, and Turning Tides Maple Minds Podcast artwork

Lies, Tantrums, and Turning Tides Maple Minds Podcast

Recorded February 10, 2026 This episode was recorded earlier this month and is being released a little later than planned. Thanks for your patience. In the Season 4 premiere of Maple Minds, Christie and Rob dive into a week dominated by misinformation, political tantrums, and shifting public narratives on both sides of the border. We unpack coordinated online talking points, the real harm caused by leaving false information uncorrected, and why “distraction politics” continues to work so well. From the Ambassador Bridge drama and Epstein file misinformation, to Canadian political spin, severance lies, and the misuse of religion to justify hate, this episode focuses on accountability, integrity, and calling out bullshit wherever it shows up. We also talk about culture, identity, and why politics is not a team sport — and never should be.

Last Tuesday’s Maple Minds -Alberta’s Petition Victory, MAGA Influence, and Canada’s Political Crossroads (Oct 28, 2025)

Recorded on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, this episode of Maple Minds dives into the week’s biggest stories in Canadian and international politics. Christi, Rob, and Poli start in Alberta with former Deputy Premier Thomas Lukaszuk’s petition that crushed the separatist movement’s goal — gathering over 456,000 signatures to keep Alberta in Canada. From there, the team explores deeper currents: the MAGA influence on Canadian separatism, Steve Bannon’s global agenda, Trump’s economic manipulation through tariffs, and Danielle Smith’s use of the notwithstanding clause to end Alberta’s teacher strike. The hosts also discuss Pierre Poilievre’s careful dance around the federal budget, the NDP’s leadership questions, and America’s troubling moves in the Caribbean. 👉 This is Tuesday’s episode released Friday so you’re always caught up — even when the headlines move fast.

Doug Ford, Tariffs, and Trudeau’s Shadow: How Politics Became a Spectator Sport

Doug Ford’s $75-million Reagan-inspired ad lights up the political arena — and Trump takes the bait. In this episode, Maple, Christi, and Rob break down the fallout: Was it smart strategy or taxpayer waste? We dive into Trump’s reaction, Canada–U.S. trade tensions, Pierre Poilievre’s latest RCMP comments, and why real political leadership in Canada feels harder to find than ever. From Ford’s media play to the future of Mark Carney’s economic plan, we explore what’s real, what’s theatre, and what Canadians actually deserve from their politicians. 🎧 Hosted by Christi, Rob, and Maple (Poli), Maple Minds Podcast respectful political talk from the West Coast with a dose of humour and heart.

Despicable Leadership? Pierre Poilievre, the RCMP, and the Politics of Fear

Christi, Rob, and Polly jump right into the week’s headlines starting with Pierre Poilievre calling RCMP leadership “despicable” and the RCMP firing back that they answer to no political side. The crew breaks down how fear tactics and scandal recycling are being used to stir distrust in government and the media. They also dig into Danielle Smith’s 70 million dollar Tylenol fiasco, the rise of political division across Canada, and the chaos leading up to the massive “No Kings” protests in the United States. This episode is packed with honest talk, humor, and frustration as the team asks what real leadership should look like in a time when politics feels like a game show. 🎧 Tune in for an hour of unfiltered Canadian commentary on politics, corruption, and accountability.
