Canadian Common Sense

Our email is cdncomsense@gmail.com While it's hard to believe that any politicians would lie to Canadians, Mark Carney has been caught up in some big lies this week. Should Saskatchewan become the 51st State? Doug Ford makes history, what the hell is going on with the east coast? And more!

Email us at cdncomsense@gmail.com Ontario votes this week, the federal Liberals have one less leadership candidate, and what the hell happened on PEI? High speed rail, and we wrap up sharing some of your Canadian hidden gems! Please keep them coming, they have been great!

We have an election in Ontario (allegedly) because Doug Ford needs a mandate to stand up to the USA. Liberal Party leadership candidates telling us they love Canada now and want to fix everything. BC is showing exactly what needs fixing, so ... let's do it! And, we're asking for your help: Canadians are pledging to vacation in Canada, so what is the place Canadians should visit when they&#...

Great news! www.feedspot.com has listed Canadian Common Sense fourth on their list of top Canadian political podcasts. Not so great news that Mark Carney appears to be our next Prime Minister, our border is still a problem, and we won't even trade with each other within Canada, let alone focus on other markets. But, we can fix this, if we have the will. Enjoy the show!

Yes, we've seen this before, but we are certainly "experiencing it differently." The Hogue Report wraps up, Ontario is in election mode, The Liberal Leader's race tightens up, Lewis is a little unhappy with tariffs, and more!

Despite what lame stream media would have you believe, our country is not at the brink of destruction. We do, however, suffer from an extreme lack of leadership at the federal level. We now have seven candidates looking to be your next (temporary) Prime Minister, a provincial election coming to Ontario, The "Smith Effect" on tariffs, and more!

Depending on when you listen, Donald Trump may already be sworn in as US President, and maybe some points we make may be irrelevant. That said, Mark Carney launches a dumpster fire, Chrystia Freeland wants to be your next Prime Minister, the rebel Danielle Smith, and more!

Contrary to what some idiot says at the beginning, today is actually in 2025, not 2024. The Liberal Party of Canada has made the rules for the leadership race, and we've even got some names. Reality check: Trump doesn't actually want Canada, DEI dies in Edmonton, legislation dies in Ottawa (not idling,) and more!

Not exactly breaking news anymore, but Justin Trudeau has announced that he intends to step down as Liberal Leader and Prime Minister. We'll break it down for you.

If you haven't seen the Jordan Peterson/ Pierre Poilievre interview yet, you gotta see it. We'll break it down for you, and discuss miscarriage of justice, terrorists convening in Canada, the rise of Danielle Smith, and more!

Lewis and Tony re-cap significant events of the year, Lewis has a proposal for Pierre Poilievre, Tony re-ups his dedication to Chrystia Freeland, and wrap up with predictions for 2025!

While we aren't saying "get the fxxk out of BC," we also are not welcoming the Prime Minister on his ski holiday. We'll talk about his future, the rise of "crime tourism" in Canada, possibly some good news for Canada's EV industry, and more!

Merry Christmas everyone! Thank you for being an important part of our lives every week. We appreciate each and every one of you!

For those of you who are familiar with the classic movie, you'll get that we will cover topics on the same time line but through different perspectives, as everything intertwines this week. Chrystia Freeland drops a resignation instead of a Fall Economic Statement, Justin Trudeau drops a new Cabinet, not including Mark Carney, Pierre Poilievre drops a dare to the Governor General, Jagmeet Singh dr...

The later days of any session in Parliament is often referred to as "The Silly Season" as little business gets done, but this has actually been what this whole session has been about. Today we talk Canada Post, more on the latest firearms ban, BC government is back to work, we try to calm the fears of legacy media, and more!

Thank you to Pierre Poilievre for the term! Jagmeet Singh has become a caricature of a feckless politician: is it time for him to go? Just in time for the anniversary of Ecole Polytechnique, another gun confiscation announcement. You can bet Lewis is less than impressed. Arif Virani has offered to split C-63 to get it passed, but will it see the light of day? And more!

It's no news that government is incompetent. The GST holiday has passed, but how much will it help? And how did it get passed? Why did it take a social media post from Donald Trump to get Canada's leaders to take their jobs seriously? Lewis unloads on government, Danielle Smith takes on Stephen Guilbeault, and more!

About that GST cut you've been promised? You may not see that, and we'll tell you why not. And that $250 cheque in April? Will that buy your vote in a Spring election? Alberta looks at changes to auto insurance, while their Opposition Leader can't insure himself a seat in the Legislature, riots in Montreal, Trudeau puts on his dance moves, and more!

Grey Cup Sunday! Vancouver has put on an amazing show to welcome Canada to our annual showdown for Canadian football supremacy. What's less than amazing is some Remembrance Day ceremonies across Canada. Randy Boissonault is back in the news, Nova Scotia's election is far from boring, a bombshell in the Hogue Inquiry, and more!

It's a little surprising, and disturbing that Remembrance Day isn't a national stat holiday. The importance of those who have served this country seems to be fading these days, and one school in particular really dropped the ball on this one. A US election that has consequences for Canada, diversity in our streets, and more!

While Quebec always plays an outsized role in Canadian life, do we want them playing an outsized role in our deaths, too? Enter Bill 11. BC finally has a decision, but do they have a government? A close call for Saskatchewan, is Trudeau going down? And more!

Not only is that what we hear from Justin Trudeau on his resignation, but that's also what the government wants us to eat, allegedly. We'll talk about the Pandemic Preparedness Act, election updates, The Stephen Guilbeault apology tour, Trudeau won't go, and more!

Justin Trudeau is facing a caucus revolt, or is he? Jordan Peterson is back in the crosshairs, BC election results, Pharmacare, and more! To view the BC electoral map, click on the link below: https://globalnews.ca/news/10801085/bc-election-results-live-2024-vote/

If Canadians aren't crying out over literally billions of litres of milk being dumped by dairy farmers in Canada, they should be. The Food Professor, Dr. Sylvain Charlebois, makes a repeat appearance to discuss his latest, and controversial, report that isn't being discussed anywhere else.

With two of three provinces going into advance polls, and everything else in this country, it's a no brainer that things have to change. Quebec has gone insane, ER waits are through the roof, "death to Canada" chants? We wrap up with advice for Justin Trudeau, and more!
