As Team Canada competes in the World Cup, Prime Minister Mark Carney steps forward with promising economic news—yet the declarations of unity from Pierre Poilievre and Premier Danielle Smith ring hollow amidst the chaos. Join host Laura Babcock and guest Douglas Connors from the True North Eager Beaver podcast as they delve into this critical moment for our country. We must ask ourselves: who truly has Canada’s best interests at heart, and who is attempting to MAGAtize our nation, surrendering it to dark political forces? This is not just a conversation; it's a call to action! We all play a vital role in this fight for democracy. Share your voice, engage with us, and let’s ensure that Canada remains strong and united. Hype, share, like, and comment! Together, we can uphold the values that define our great country. Let’s stand firm for Canada’s future! #democracy #canada #canadanews #elbowsup #alberta #trump #canadastrong #ontario #carney #canadianpodcast #poilievre #markcarney #economy An independent podcast, the best way to support our work is by subscribing.
