Many in the harm reduction community have been saying for years that it is racist to criminalize drugs. The argument is that the justice system disproportionately targets racialized people. Adam Zivo is a Columnist with the National Post, and he is the Executive Director of the Centre For Responsible Drug Policy - he joins Stephen LeDrew to explain the reasons why this argument is absolute nonsense. If you read the history books - and look at current drug policies - the communities that are supposedly targeted are the ones that want these drugs out of their community!

Pierre Poilievre has been struggling since Mark Carney has taken the helm of the Liberals. His entire strategy had been built upon stopping Justin Trdueau - with Trudeau out of the picture people seem to be taking a sober second look at the Conservative Leader. But is the criticism fair? And will he be able to distance himself from people who keep referring to him as Trump lite. Robin Bredin is an Author and overall smart guy - he discusses with Stephen LeDrew the new book ‘Ripper’ on the topic of Pierre Poilievre for Three Minutes.

This is the most important Canadian election in a generation - it is also an election that is taking place in the age of the infancy of AI - the age of foreign interference with Russia, India, and China likely all taking a crack and mucking with the results of this election. On top of that - there seems to be a torrent of fake photos circulating of Mark Carney with Jeffrey Epstein - this is all fake. Make sure you take the time to double check your sources and your stories - so come election day - you can make a proper informed decision.

Over the past decade, productivity and innovation have fallen behind because the Trudeau Government Policy made sure that our natural resources stayed in the ground. We are responsible for our decline - and now we have Mark Carney vying to be the next Prime Minister. Does he really expect Canadians to believe that he has abandoned his own outdated environmental dogma? Can Canada endure another four years of Liberal-engineered decline? Bryan Gould is the CEO of Aspenleaf Energy Limited - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

It’s been a wild ride since Donald Trump became President of the United States. Now that we have had time to settle into the current reality it’s important to ask the question - How did we get here? When the tariffs come into play will we be feeling their impact because of the US Administration? - or due to years of Liberal anti-business policy that has left our economy weak and hollowed-out? Catherine Swift is the President of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers & Businesses of Canada- she joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Bonnie Henry was the top doctor in BC and has been an advocate of safe supply. Critics of safe supply have long said that these drugs are being distributed and then sold by people suffering with addiction to get their hands on the drugs they really want … but these common sense critics have been here-to-for summarily dismissed. One of these people is National Post Columnist Adam Zivo - he is also the executive director of the Centre for Responsible Drug Policy - he joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes.

Is the absence of a unified message from Canada on how to respond to the threat of tariffs weakening our position? Ontario Premier Doug Ford threatened a 25% surcharge on electricity - and has gone so far as to say he would turn the electricity off. Experts have all said that Canada will not win a trade war with the United States - so is Premier Ford needlessly escalating a bad situation? Catherine Swift is the President of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada - she joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

The NDP are off to a pathetic start in this campaign - talking about class struggles! The Liberals are trying to position themselves as the new guys - when everyone surrounding Carney has been part of the terrible Justin Trudeau regime. And the Conservatives have no idea what to do now that their campaign has been robbed of its focus - part of the carbon tax axed,Trudeau gone. Is it too much to hope that the leaders will reveal their plans to revitalize and rejuvenate Canada?

Does Mark Carney have the ability to overcome the incompetence and corruption of the Trudeau Liberals? He has been a businessman and banker -but what does he know about the oil industry - or the steel industry? Or politics? The Conservatives have tried to pin the Trudeau track record to him - so far with no success. So far, it would seem that Canadians are more concerned with the trade war than track records - can the Conservatives wake up before the Liberals rise up? Andrew Perez is a Political Strategist - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Many Canadians seem to have fallen in love with Mark Carney. But let’s remember that this is the man who has always been touting the same Trudeau anti-resource agenda that has been crushing Canadians. In fact, his entourage is made up of the same people as the last government … just sitting in different chairs. Canadians need to wake up before they are duped by this clone!

Jay Goldberg is with the Canadian Taxpayers Federation - he joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes.

To say the political and financial landscape has been chaotic since Donald Trump was elected is an understatement. But now Canadians are taking a hard look at their own options, hoping for an election. Given the rising poll numbers for the Liberals - it looks like it wasn’t a case of people liking Pierre Poilievre - as much as it was people hating Justin Trudeau. But looking at the Liberal option, will Mark Carney be able to stand up for Canadians? Andrew Perez is a political strategist- he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Hardly anyone was still supporting Justin Trudeau in the end - He stuck around so long that the poll numbers were pointing to annihilation for the Liberals in the next election. His father was once the ‘saviour’ of the Liberals - Michael Ignatieff was labeled as the ‘saviour’ of the party in more recent memory (how did that work out?) - Now Mark Carney is being labeled by some as the new saviour of the Liberals. He is a man whose resume is more interesting than his personality - is he going to make a good Prime Minister? Patrick Gossage is the former Press Secretary to Pierre Trudeau - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Canada is a rich nation with untold natural resources - but years of Liberal green policies have left them in the ground. With the economic crisis hitting us will Canada become bankrupt, and vulnerable to an American takeover? Or will we change this disastrous course with a new Government?

Until just recently the experts (and you know what Stephen thinks about experts) were predicting that this upcoming Federal Election was going to be boring - that Pierre Poilievre had locked in a victory. How things have changed in a few short weeks! Mark Carney is our new Prime Minister - and this has Canadians seeing red - as many voters have shifted to the Liberals. What has happened here? Andrew Enns is Executive Vice President with Leger Polling - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Donald Trump started his second term in Office with a big bang – actually countless Big Bangs! At home with the USA imposing tariffs on its largest trading partners Canada and Mexico - and throwing Ukraine under the bus with a shameful display in the oval office. How will the world respond to this? Are American Conservatives so opposed to anything normal that they would rather stand with bloodthirsty dictators? Adam Zivo is a Columnist with the National Post - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes

Donald Trump is successfully re-aligning the world order. His love of tariffs is shaking the economic foundations and traditional rules to the core. And what is absolutely certain is that his tariffs are forcing Canada to step up in a way we should have done a long time ago. But now we need to worry about the consequences that the Mark Carney Liberal agenda might have on our economy. Brian Lilley is a columnist with the Toronto Sun - he joins Stephen LeDrew for Three Minutes.

Canadians should not blame themselves for being confused with what's been happening south of the border - Tariffs on, tariffs off - Donald Trump continuing his rhetoric that Canada will be the 51st state.The whole world is confused. But have Canadians been so reliant on the United States that we have been afraid to fly on our own? With all of our resources? There will be pain - but Canada will end up stronger as a result of this - and we will NEVER be the 51st State.

Elected Ministers have been ceding their responsibilities to unelected bureaucrats. The people who are governing us are no longer our elected politicians. Is the problem that too many ministers are grossly unqualified for the portfolios they hold? Should we be expecting more accountability from government? Is it too late to stop this dictatorship by the nameless? John Turley-Ewart is a Contributing Columnist with the Globe and Mail - he is also a banking historian. He joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes.

Mark Carney has quickly reversed himself 180 degrees on virtually everything he has believed in recent memory, notably Carbon Tax and Pipelines. Will Canadians elect him if he is a flip-flopper? Even with this about-face the Liberals are creeping up in the polls - Is this a situation where Pierre Poilievre may not stand a chance? Patrick Gossage was the Press Secretary to Pierre Trudeau - he joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss this for Three Minutes
