• Property Rights Could Be Canada's Next Big Crisis | Bruce Pardy
    Jun 16 2026

    Why land claims are raising alarm bells for homeowners.

    Law professor Bruce Pardy joins David Leis to discuss why court decisions, B.C. Indigenous land claims, and government policy are raising new questions about property rights in Canada.

    What do the Cowichan case in B.C. and the recent New Brunswick ruling actually mean? Why aren't property rights protected in Canada's Constitution? And what happens when uncertainty over land ownership starts affecting housing, investment, and economic growth?

    This isn't just a legal debate. It's about whether Canadians can have confidence in the future of homeownership and property rights.

  • Is Canada Still a Safe Country? | LCol. David Redman
    Jun 9 2026

    Canada is not secure, and according to Lieutenant-Colonel (Ret.) David Redman, the risks and our "enemies" are already here.

    Redman, who served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 27 years, reveals just how weak Canada's border is, our failing immigration enforcement, and explains how the courts and policing systems are not keeping up with reality.

    He raises serious concerns about known threats operating freely in Canada, questions whether Canada is properly prioritizing its own military before sending billions to Ukraine, and warns that allies like the United States may act to protect their own interests regardless of Canada’s position.

    What does it take to get Canada back in control of its borders, its laws, and its national security?

  • The Battle Over Hunting, Fishing, and Crown Land in Canada
    Jun 2 2026

    Is public land still truly public?

    Most Canadians don’t think twice about Crown land—it’s where people hunt, fish, camp, and get away from the city. But that access is becoming a real point of tension.

    David Leis is joined by Jesse Zeman of the BC Wildlife Federation and Chris Heald of the Manitoba Wildlife Federation to talk about what’s changing on Crown lands across Canada, and why more people are worried they’re slowly getting locked out.

    They break down new policy shifts, conservation rules, and land-use decisions that could affect everyday Canadians, not just hunters and anglers. If access keeps shrinking, it changes how families use the land, how communities connect with nature, and who gets to enjoy Canada’s outdoors at all.

    Former BC Finance Minister Mike de Jong has spent years inside government making real budget decisions during economic stress and crisis periods in British Columbia.

    He also breaks down where policy is creating roadblocks today, especially around housing, LNG, investment, and uncertainty over land and regulation. But it’s not just criticism, he also explains what a realistic path forward looks like if governments focus again on growth, investment, and clear rules.

  • Land Claims Will Affect Every Canadian: Lawyer
    Apr 21 2026

    This is very, very serious for Canada.

    A major court decision in B.C. is raising a question Canadians never thought they’d have to ask: do you actually own your home… or could it be taken away?

    Lawyer Tom Isaac warns we’re in historic times—with massive uncertainty around land claims, property rights, and the future of Canada. If we don’t get our act together, this could be game over.

    There’s not enough clarity, not enough leadership, and the silence from government is deafening. This isn’t just an Indigenous issue—it’s a public policy failure that affects every Canadian, your home, your future, and the economy.

    So where are we going? And what happens if nothing changes?
