902 – Speaking his own mind—for the People’s Party of Canada | Peyman Askari

Comments Off

Mar 052025

Fresh on the heels of Ontario’s hit-and-run provincial election, Canadians are now preparing for a federal election in which the major contenders are expected to be the Liberal Party’s Mark Carney and the Conservative Party’s Pierre Poilievre.

Both support Canada’s involvement in the Ukraine war, the ideology of climate change, and getting into a trade war with America. Each party supported the recent mandatory Covid lockdowns and injections; each party continues to support various trade restrictions and monopolies within the country. And so much more.

So where can Canadian voters turn for a political option that does not force them to fund and support these unconscionable and irrational policies? In Canada there is one clear choice: the People’s Party of Canada, which under the leadership of Maxime Bernier and his army of PPC candidates, is bringing that choice to ridings across Canada.

One such candidate is our guest Peyman Askari, whose personal journey from what he calls a “Leftist cult” eventually steered him towards the People’s Party of Canada. In sharing his story, Peyman speaks freely about his own observations regarding the state of politics in Canada.

Though low in the polls during its early history, a new political party like the PPC must stand at the ready, says Peyman. It must “always be on the starting line… to take advantage of unpredictable white swan events.”

On the contentious matter of becoming a 51st state, Peyman suggests that this would not be a good idea for Canada: “We have to get there on our own.”

As a 51st state, Canadians would be spared the effort of gaining any new found freedoms, and so would never value their freedom in the same way that those who fought for freedom do. As an entitlement, freedom is little appreciated. As a value, freedom is cherished and becomes the defining point of a nation’s culture.

That’s why for Canadians, ‘earning’ their freedom is how to do it in a way that is Just Right.

Reclaiming Canada’s cultural identity | Russ Cooper

Justin Trudeau has claimed that “there is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada” and that Canada is the world’s “first post-national state.” This, of course, was wishful thinking on the part of the Liberal Prime Minister, who also claimed that “Canada works better when there are Quebecers running it because we’ve got a sense of the whole country.” This inflated sense of importance and narcissistic attitude contradicts Canada’s long history of Western, primarily British, values of classical liberalism.

Trudeau’s attempt to undermine Canadian culture is seen by some as part of broader efforts by globalists and socialists like him who seek to erode our history and spirit. Some Canadians, repulsed by such efforts, have banded together to reclaim Canada’s proud heritage as a country that respected individual rights and fostered economic prosperity. One such organization is Canadian Citizens for Charter Rights and Freedoms (C3RF), co-founded and presided over by Major Russ Cooper (Ret’d).

Major Cooper joins Robert Vaughan to discuss the perceived decline in Canadian pride since the rise of the Trudeau regime and how we can reclaim the strong sense of culture we once had.

Peyman Askari—The slow drip of tyranny

A distinctive feature of the People’s Party of Canada is the freedom its leader, Maxime Bernier, grants his candidates to express themselves. Unlike other federal Canadian parties, which tightly control their candidates by prohibiting press interactions and, in some cases, even barring participation in all-candidates debates out of fear of missteps that could embarrass the party or its leader, Bernier takes a different approach. He encourages his candidates to openly share their personal views in public forums, trusting them to address issues important to Canadians with honesty and authenticity.

Joining Robert Vaughan is PPC candidate Peyman Askari, who not only speaks candidly about topics that interest him but also actively engages with fellow Canadians on matters they care about most. Through his video platform, “In Lay Terms,” he has produced 160 discussions to date. Peyman represents the PPC in the riding of West Vancouver–Sunshine Coast–Sea to Sky Country.

901 – OH Canada!—NO Canada?

Feb 262025

There’s more to all the talk about Canada becoming a 51st state of America than most people suspect; Canada’s demise is self-inflicted, and on its current path, is inevitable.

Whether or not one believes that Canada’s becoming a 51st state of America is a serious proposition, the underlying realities that make it possible to even entertain such a discussion do not bode well for Canada.

The survival of Canada as a nation has long been dubious. Between Canada’s Western provinces and the province of Quebec, separation from the rest of Canada has always been threatened. Why? Because the federal government had in some way interfered with the promised jurisdictional authority of the provinces.

Worse, Canadians themselves have long self-defined as ‘not’ being American, a rather meaningless identity given that citizens of all nations outside the United States are also not American. Canadians in general are ignorant of their country’s history and unaware of the nature of its government. Continue reading »

900 – Ontario’s hit-and-run election—driven by a Ford | Paul McKeever

Comments Off

Feb 192025

In a discussion that transcends its provincial boundaries, Freedom Party of Ontario leader Paul McKeever once again joins us to discuss some uncomfortable truths about voters and the democratic process itself.

“It’s a dark time in Ontario,” says Paul, in anticipation of a new round of ’emergency’ declarations following Ontario’s February 27 snap election, both on the provincial and federal levels. But never has there been such a glaringly anti-democratic Ontario election as the current hit-and-run election driven by a Ford: Doug Ford, the Premier of Ontario.

In Ontario, the electoral process has become entirely corrupt. Early voting is both permitted and encouraged even before nominations are closed and candidates have been selected. Ford has demonstrated that general elections can be called on a whim, in contravention of the Election Statute Law Amendment Act, 2004. Elections Ontario, which administers Ontario elections and regulates officially-registered political parties, has in the past refused to place a fully-qualified and nominated Freedom Party candidate on the ballot in his riding. Again, rules don’t matter.

Our review of election feedback received by Freedom Party since the dropping of the writ on January 29 demonstrates that most voters, lobby groups, and the media are completely disconnected from any issues relevant to Ontario provincial politics. Even Doug Ford, in threatening to restrict trade and impose tariffs on America, is oblivious to the fact that such actions are not open to him given that they fall exclusively within federal jurisdiction.

899 – An Ignoble Truth—about the Noble Lie

Comments Off

Feb 122025

In our second discussion with Salim Mansur relating to the history and ideas behind ‘neoconservatism,’ we find ourselves once again confronted with the Noble Lie: the belief that some people (the ‘elites’) are endowed with a natural right to rule other people (the masses).

In stark contrast to the principles upon which America was founded (and to the expression of these principles in the American Constitution), the various ‘noble lies’ that slowly crept into the American consciousness resulted in what Salim calls the ‘warping’ of America’s culture.

Among the manifestations assumed by the Noble Lie was one called the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), a foreign policy initiative calling for America’s ‘Full Spectrum dominance’ to rule the nations and resources of the entire world.

Selling that idea to the American people, in a nation conditioned never to go abroad ‘looking for monsters to slay,’ became a fait accompli with American acceptance of the twin myths of ‘American exceptionalism’ and of a ‘chosen people’. Indeed, the establishment of the state of Israel, largely supported by Christian Zionists in the ‘bible belt’ of America, became another justification for America’s going abroad looking for ‘monsters to slay.’ Continue reading »

898 – Freedom Party—challenging Ontario’s zeitgeist | Paul McKeever

Comments Off

Feb 052025

With voters in the province of Ontario headed to the polls on February 27, our guest Freedom Party of Ontario leader Paul McKeever explains why Ontario’s snap election -called by Progressive Conservative Premier Doug Ford – is illegal and unjustifiable.

Upon first hearing rumors of an early election being discussed back in January, Paul published and distributed an open letter to call upon MPPs and others to oppose Doug Ford’s snap election bid. In that letter, he cited the Election Statute Law Amendment Act, 2004, and wrote: “I urge Ontario MPPs once again openly and strenuously to oppose – in the name of preserving the democratic rights of all Ontarians – Doug Ford’s anti-democratic plan to hold a general election before the June 2026 date that already is fixed by law.”

By no means is the abuse of democratic process something unique to Ontario; it reflects the disturbing anti-democratic zeitgeist that has gripped Western nations as never before.

Doug Ford’s justification for calling the early election borders on the psychotic. He does not even have the jurisdiction or authority to carry out any of his tariff and trade restriction threats, and his only provincially mandated course of action is to spend taxpayer money without being held accountable for the irresponsible way in which it is being spent.
