## Resource

In a week where the world held its breath over the potential for a civilization-ending nuclear attack by Trump and Netanyahu on Iran and a horrific bombing of Lebanon, our focus should also turn toward the alarming escalation of threats to Canada from the Trump regime. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is defending separatists in court – an act that begs the question of loyalty and responsibility as calls for investigations into treasonous acts rise. Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre's Conservative Party is unravelling, with yet another MP defecting to Mark Carney's Liberal Party, which is on the brink of securing a majority. We cannot overlook the authoritarian moves being made by Doug Ford in Ontario, now facing legal challenges from a populace that has had enough of his growing kleptocracy. Join panellists Keith Leslie, Mark Cripps, and host Laura Babcock on this EPIC SCANDAL PANEL, where they dive into the tumultuous news cycle with keen insights and lots of humour to lighten the load. This is not just another discussion – it’s a rallying cry for all of us to stand together against these challenges. You won’t want to miss it! There’s a curse word warning, but we’re in this together, and through laughter and dialogue, we can protect our democracy. Don’t just watch – share your thoughts, hype it up, comment, and subscribe!
