Useful idiots captured by Canada's disguised activists

Political activism, media framing and growing tolerance for political violence take centre stage as Jim and Iain examine how labels, selective reporting and ideological movements can shape public opinion while weakening trust in Canada’s institutions. John Carpay of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms joins the show with updates on the Amy Hamm appeal, the Freedom Convoy Emergencies Act case and a possible legal challenge involving access restrictions at Joffre Lakes. He also discusses recent free speech victories involving political billboards and protests on Parliament Hill, along with concerns about government surveillance and the power to decide what Canadians are allowed to say.

Canada’s economy is showing more signs of strain, from rising insolvencies and mill closures in British Columbia to weak business investment and growing household debt. Jim and Ian also look at Ottawa’s latest spending decisions, the Pathways carbon capture deal, supply management, Mark Carney’s approach to foreign policy, and the growing disconnect between government priorities and the pressures facing ordinary Canadians. Conservative MP Dan Albas joins the show to discuss Canada Post’s $31 million in bonuses, taxpayer-funded bailouts, serious security gaps at Canadian ports, organized crime, cuts to enforcement resources, and the broader lack of transparency and accountability in Ottawa.
