    GND#43 Oil, Taxes and Freedom-The Shocking Case For Alberta Separation:Alberta Prosperity Project
    Nov 4 2025

    "The Alberta Prosperity Project is an inspiring initiative to educate and unite all Albertans, businesses, and organizations to protect their prosperity, individual freedoms, rights, and sovereignty by empowering the Alberta government to restructure Alberta's relationship with Canada." I had the pleasure of sitting down and having an open and honest conversation with Tanya Clemens, a Farmer, Educator, Advocate for Agriculture and Politically Engaged hustler who now joins in the education for Albertans via the Alberta Prosperity Project. We talk all possibilities on the potential for Alberta as it pertains to sovereignty within and without Canada. Hot topics like Alberta's Oil and Gas revenues, equalization, taxes, quebec, lack of representation in the form of seats at all levels of government, and exactly who are these "separatists" and why are they so angry? Are we all hillbillies, racists and extremists, or are we simply fed up with the lack of cooperation from Ottawa. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation, Tanya is not only a sweetheart, but she's an excellent communicator with a passion for defending western interests. Right in my wheelhouse folks!!

  • GND#42 Chris Barber-Canadian Liberal Government Coming for "Big Red" A Symbol For Freedom

    GND#42 Chris Barber-Canadian Liberal Government Coming for "Big Red" A Symbol For Freedom
    Oct 29 2025
    Chris Barber and Tamara Lich helped organize the now infamous Freedom Convoy of 2022 that took place in Ottawa, Ontario Canada. I say "helped" because it was a large group of freedom-loving Truckers, lawyers, ex-rcmp, everyday workers and military veterans that came together to set it in motion, and somehow keep it on the tracks. What unfolded as the Trucks began to roll from West to East, is that it picked up other eager truckers and disgruntled Canadians with regards to the mandates during the pandemic, and a massive amount of fanfare and followers cheering the patriots on. There of course, were many who disagreed with this group, most notably the Federal Government and their favourite Liberal-funded MSM would pile on to help paint a much different narrative. Chris was handed a 12 month sentence of House Arrest-followed by 6 months of curfew and 100 hours of community service. He now has a LOT of time on his hands, and a LOT to say. So much so that Tamara Lich and Chris have fired up their own weekly podcast aptly titled "House Arrest" which will air weekly on YOUTUBE, and other Social Media Platforms every Thursday. We dive into how it all started, who were some of the key players, what it was like as they travelled across Canada to unite and Protest. We then get into what it was like on the ground in Ottawa and go over some of the incidents that occurred like the "flag" that mysteriously appeared and was captured in a photo, the woman who was trampled by the horse, the statue that was apparently urinated on and desecrated. We get into the invoking of the emergencies act of course and the emergency senate debate regarding Justin Trudeau's unleashing of these unprecedented powers that resulted in the freezing of many innocent Canadians' bank accounts. We also touch on his love for Tamara and how strong that woman actually is! Are they heroes or villains? You decide. Chris is a salt of the earth, blue collar, all around good ole Saskatchewan boy who was just fed up with what was happening to Canadians and their rights. He took it to the next level, and now has to pay the piper. It was the longest trial for mischief in Canadian history! Enjoy a trip down memory lane.

  • GND#41 John Pantazopoulos Walks Away From Oil To Drill Into Calgary City Hall

    GND#41 John Pantazopoulos Walks Away From Oil To Drill Into Calgary City Hall
    Oct 18 2025

    John Pantazopoulos, running for City of CalgaryCouncillor Ward 6 (my ward) is a former Top 40 Under 40 as given the nod in Avenue Magazine for Calgary Alberta. He is currently the CEO of Lucky Strike Energy, and has been behind several other Oil and Gas and Lithium start ups including E3 Metals which holds Canada's largest high-confidence lithium resource.

    So why does a guy who seemingly has it all want to walk away for the not-so-glorious City Halls of Calgary? Turns out the Blanket Rezoning recently imposed on YYC was the last straw for the astute entrepreneur.

    We get into his gripes with the previous council, and what he looks to bring to the new council if elected, is his business savy from lives past which also includes being a CFO at Petroreef whre he was the youngest of all on the TSX Venture, and in addition as part of the executive leadership team, Pantazopoulos helped raise 180 million in equity capital for Tangle Creek.

    We talk about safety, transit, fiscal responsibility and various other topics including my favorite, drilling wells! John has been pounding the pavement for 7 months and had a great head start on his opponents, and he has tracked every step, every conversation and every door missed, that was ear marked for a return visit. John is meticulous, methodical, analytical, well-spoken and charismatic.

    This guy is one sharp cookie, and I believe he's one to keep an eye on down the road in politics, and feel he'd be an excellent councillor for Ward 6! Who knows, this guy just might be Mayor potential. Time will Tell!
