What liberals don't get about Mexicans 04.03.2026

Have Canadians been lied to about residential schools? 21.02.2026

In 2022, news media across the globe reported that hundreds of mass graves containing the remains of Indigenous children had been discovered at a former residential school site in Canada. This turned out ⁠not to be true⁠ . Nothing had been discovered at all. Yet the narrative of not only the “mass graves,” but systemic abuse and even “genocide” perpetrated at these residential schools, lives on. C...

Canadians are on a sinking ship 12.02.2026

Is Canada done for? Is the Prime Minister selling the country off to China? Is Canada about to become America's 51st state? What does Mark Carney mean when he talks about the "New World Order"?

Some not-so-nice but true things 30.01.2026

Is it possible you aren't for sure right and for sure good and for sure know the whole story about the situation in Minnesota? Is it possible we could allow for people to hold different opinions or even no opinion at all without yet another purge of the baddies? Let's try!

Did destigmatizing mental illness help? 29.01.2026

It seems all we do nowadays is talk about “mental health,” yet apparently, things are getting worse, not better. Are we in a mental health crisis? Has the destigmatization of mental illness helped? Do we really all need to be in therapy? In this episode, ⁠Meghan Murphy ⁠ speaks with Sonia Zawitkowski, one of the filmmakers behind ⁠ Thank You for Sharing ⁠ , a ⁠documentary⁠ about mental health cult...

The Canadian government moves to advance free speech crackdowns and MAID deaths 15.01.2026

At one time, ⁠Andrew Lawton⁠ was struggling with mental health issues, suicidal himself. Had MAID been an option for him then, he may well have taken it. But things got better, and now he is living a happy and fulfilling life, very glad he didn't take that irreversible step. But for many Canadians, they might not have the chance to recover. ⁠Andrew Lawton⁠ is the Member of Parliament for Elgin...

Did the gay rights revolution go too far? 11.01.2026

At one time, gay rights was simply about rights —theright to marry and to not be discriminated against in the workplace, for example. But the movement quickly went from acceptance to celebration and more. Pride became a flaunting of fetishes, nudity, and public sexuality as well as about all kinds of other identities and ideologies such as transgenderism. Has the gay rights revolution gone too far...

We need to re-psychopathologize transgenderism 23.12.2025

Arguably, the trans movement really took hold when organizations like The World Professional Association for Transgender Health ( WPATH) began a ⁠de-psychopathologization campaign⁠ back in ⁠2010⁠ . This campaign was not based on “science,” but was politically motivated, and resulted in the removal of mental health protections and enabled the medical scandal we see today, wherein minors are being s...

Why did the Canadian government slaughter 300 ostriches? 25.11.2025

Earlier in November, after a months-long legal battle, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency appeared at Universal Ostrich Farms in the dead of night with snipers, slaughtering ⁠300+ ostriches⁠ . The owners of the farm—a family—were forced to listen as their ostriches, many of whom they’d had for 30 years, were killed in an inexplicably inhumane way. The Canadian government used a supposed “H5N1 out...

Mary Cate Delvey went viral "listening to trans people" 19.11.2025

⁠Mary Cate Delvey ⁠ has gone viral many times over on account of her videos, wherein she reveals the disturbing truth behind transgenderism through the words of "trans people" themselves. Indeed, we are always being told to "listen to trans people," so ⁠Mary Cate⁠ did. What is revealed is far from flattering (albeit often hilarious). The Same Drugs is on X ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠...

Josh Seiter faked being trans to troll the libs 07.11.2025

⁠Josh Seiter ⁠ confused many of us when he "came out" as a "trans woman" last year. Was he trolling or was he for real? By the time the former Bachelorette contestant revealed his troll was indeed just that, he had acquired many more fans—amused at his use of transgender ideology to reveal its own incoherence. Josh has continued to use woke logic to mock the irrationality of mo...

Jenny Lindsay was hounded out of the arts for challenging violence against lesbians at Pride 31.10.2025

⁠Jenny Lindsay⁠ had a successful career in the arts as a poet and events programmer in Scotland when she made the mistake of ⁠challenging threats of violence ⁠ against lesbians at Pride London. She was not just cancelled, but “hounded,” in her words. This would eventually become the title of her ⁠book⁠ , Hounded: Women, Harms, and the Gender Wars , published last year. In this episode, ⁠Meghan Mur...

When Beth Bourne's daughter came out as 'trans' she became an activist 10.10.2025

Last month, ⁠Beth Bourne⁠ went ⁠viral⁠ when she stripped down to a bikini at a Davis Joint Unified School District board meeting. She was making a point about how girls might feel having to undress in a change room with a male present, which is exactly what they face on account of gender identity policy and legislation. When Beth’s then-teenage daughter came out as “trans,” she became an activist—...

Graham Linehan: arrested for tweets! 03.10.2025

Earlier this month , ⁠Graham Linehan⁠ stepped off the plane at Heathrow airport, met by five armed police officers who ⁠informed⁠ him that he was under arrest for tweets. Graham was a beloved Irish comedy writer, most well-known for having created Father Ted and The IT Crowd. Once he began speaking out in defense of women’s sex-based rights and spaces, everything changed. Graham was vilified acros...
