An overview of the first week of the federal election, and news about some Manitoba MPs facing a fight to retain their seats, is the focus of Episode 15.
Part 1- Our Sunday column in the Winnipeg Sun struck a nerve after providing on-the-scene accounts of a March of crime.
Brazen thefts and organized shoplifting crews are besieging convenience and drug stores. When the cops don’t even show up to a break-in at a funeral home with corpses inside, you know the living like security guards and 7-Eleven clerks aren’t a priority either- unless their car windows have dark tint.
From a reader- “I’m now wondering why we even fund the WPS any more. They do not serve us. They target us with ticketing. That’s it.”
- The Funding campaign for Season Six is now underway – the target is $10,000 with the first contributions already in.

12.40 Part 2- If you’ve been wondering how Mark Carney has been able to say he’s making decisions about foreign policy without the confidence of the House of Commons, it’s because on March 24th the Liberals secretly changed the Caretaker Convention Guidelines. Hear how this created ” a legal and ethical gray zone.”
How convenient.
19.00– You’ll hear the outrageous descriptions of Pierre Poilievre by an Angus Reid Institute push poll to inflate support for Mark Carney. It’s beyond outrageous.
22.30– It’s no wonder MSM election coverage avoids an analysis of the immigration crisis. We have a commentary from someone who knows who declared,
“I’ve probably met a few dozen real, true refugees…. The rest are bogus. People gaming the system. People coached by consultants, lawyers, ghost agents. People using the refugee claim process to buy time. People using it to get work permits. That’s how the system is built now.”
27.00- In his book Value(s), Mark Carney showered praise on the eco-alarmist Greta Thunberg. This of course doesn’t square with his sudden support for the Canadian energy sector. The Liberal hypocrisy isn’t limited to their leader. We play audio from January of one of his Ontario candidates insisting just two months ago that Canada needs even MORE carbon taxes.

32.30 Part 3- Listeners and sources provided assessments from the campaigns on the ground.
After Jagmeet Singh ran the NDP out of money while propping up Justin Trudeau and accruing his pension, his MPs are facing annihilation at the ballot box. Among those in a dogfight- Leah Gazan, Niki Ashton, and the rookie MP Leila Dance. Meanwhile, in west Winnipeg, CPC incumbent Marty Morantz is facing voters with investments in the import-export markets who think his leader needs to make the fight against US tariffs the daily plank of the national campaign – “It’s an epic battle.”
While claims fly that the Tory campaign is disorganized, crowds in the thousands continue to show up at rallies showing their support for a change in Ottawa.
The ‘mushy middle’ – voters who swing from left to right – are targeted by media campaigns that highlight a narrative that the election is not about domestic concerns like affordability, public safety and foreign influence in our media and elections.
That leaves longstanding questions unanswered- like what happened with those Chinese spies at the downtown Winnipeg lab? Maybe Mark Carney can tell us.
