  • US ISRAEL WAR ON IRAN, CARNEY IN OZ, FASCISM RISING IN BC AND ALBERTA, CANADIAN DEMOCRACY
    Mar 5 2026

    As the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran escalates, drawing in nations like Turkey—a NATO member —the stakes have never been higher. Prime Minister Mark Carney is actively seeking trade partnerships from India to Australia, but what does this mean for Canada? Join Canadian Green Party leader MP Elizabeth May as she engages with host Laura Babcock in a crucial discussion about the war's implications, Carney's leadership challenges, the economy, and Canada's vital role on the global stage.


    Together, they address the wars in Iran and Ukraine and the urgent need to combat the rise of fascism—not just abroad, but right here in British Columbia and Alberta - and warn about democracy disappearing in Canadian parliament. This conversation is not just informative; it’s a rallying call for all Canadians to protect our values and sovereignty in these tumultuous times.

  • WAR IN IRAN, FACISM IN ALBERTA, DANIELLE SMITH'S BS, ANTI-IMMIGRANT RACISM, PEOPLE POWER
    Mar 2 2026

    With war raging in the Middle East, it’s crucial for Canadians to stay informed about the underlying motives of leaders like Trump and the responses from figures like Prime Minister Mark Carney. Host Laura Babcock takes a moment to shed light on these vital issues that affect our global standing and internal unity.


    But it doesn’t stop there. Laura is joined by Rahki Pancholi, the Deputy NDP Leader in Alberta, to confront the troubling rhetoric coming from Premier Danielle Smith. We must not ignore the blatant racism and anti-immigrant sentiments that are seeping into our political discourse, led by those catering to separatist agendas and endorsing creeping fascism within UPC policies.


    Now, more than ever, we need to remain vigilant and informed. Share this message widely, subscribe for timely updates, and let’s unite in the fight to protect our democracy. Our collective voice can make a difference! Join us in standing against divisive politics and ensuring a fair and just Canada for all, and let's protect our democracy!

  • SCANDAL PANEL: CARNEY CRUSHES IT, DANIELLE DEFICIT, RACIST SEPARATISTS, HOCKEY MISOGYNY
    Feb 27 2026

    With 99 countries tuned into The OShow, it's clear that the world cares about Canada and the urgent need to protect our democracy. While Pierre Poilievre attempts to distance himself from the extreme MAGA elements within his party with a speech, it's evident that his efforts are way too little and way too late. In stark contrast, Prime Minister Mark Carney is leading with integrity, boasting the highest approval ratings of any Canadian Prime Minister while working tirelessly to reset trade relations in India.


    Meanwhile, Danielle Smith is facing backlash over an astounding $9 billion deficit in Alberta, yet she shockingly chooses to blame the very immigrants she welcomed into the province for her failures. This dangerous anti-immigrant rhetoric, paired with the racist remarks from separatist leaders, raises critical questions. Is racism at the core of the MAGA and Separatist movements that threaten the fabric of Canada?


    We invite you to be part of this authentic conversation! Our panel, featuring Mark Cripps and Keith Leslie, alongside host Laura Babcock, will dive deep into these pressing issues, including the ongoing war in Ukraine, misogyny in men's hockey, and so much more. Don't just listen—subscribe, share your thoughts, and challenge us if you disagree. Let’s engage in meaningful dialogue during these turbulent times! Your voice matters!
