THE OSHOW SCANDAL PANEL: All the latest on Carney, Poilievre, Smith, Ford and Canada's Fight Against Trump
This Victoria Day Long Weekend, while we celebrate with friends and family, is crucial for us to reflect on the tremendous changes happening in our political landscape. With the fallout from Trump’s tariff war shaking the foundations of our economy, we must scrutinize the actions of our leaders more than ever. Prime Minister Mark Carney's newly formed cabinet faces immense challenges, while Pierre Poilievre seems to cling to his title as if he still holds sway, despite losing his seat to Bruce Fanjoy. Meanwhile, Danielle Smith appears to be playing both sides regarding Alberta’s separation, leaving us to wonder where her true loyalties lie.Doug Ford's recent Ontario budget raises unsettling questions. Is he using the chaos of the tariff war to funnel more resources to his private sector allies while leaving vulnerable Ontarians on ODSP to fend for themselves? We must ask ourselves: How much of a threat does the MAGA movement pose to Canada? Their influence can be seen through the actions of conservative Premiers and the Conservative Party’s insistence on keeping Poilievre in Stornoway to retain his image of power, waiting for a costly by-election.It's time for us to stand up, speak out, and hold our leaders accountable. We cannot let complacency take hold while our democracy is tested. Be vocal, share your thoughts, and build a thriving pro-democracy community together. Your voice matters! What do you think?

THE OSHOW SCANDAL PANEL: Is Poilievre Done? Can Carney Create a Majority to Stop Trump? Will Alberta Seperate?
The results from the most consequential election in Canada's history are in, revealing a political landscape fraught with uncertainty and potential upheaval. Is Pierre Poilievre finished as Leader of the Conservatives after shockingly losing a 20-point lead, particularly after Bruce Fanjoy's stunning victory in Carleton? With tensions rising and his team embroiled in public disputes with Ontario Premier Doug Ford, can he weather the storm, or will he succumb to the pressures from within his party?Moreover, what does this mean for the future of the Liberal Party? Does Carney have the strategic prowess to secure the three seats needed for a majority by forging sound alliances with the NDP or Elizabeth May? Or is he in such a commanding position that he doesn’t even need their support, as the Bloc, NDP, and Green MPS staunchly oppose the Conservatives?Let’s not overlook the ramifications of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's escalating threats to separate from Canada unless Prime Minister Carney meets her demands. Will the implications of this be monumental, shaking the very foundations of our federation? Or is it just a bitter response to Carney's victory? As we look ahead to upcoming elections in cities like Hamilton, we must ask: What will happen now that high-profile candidates are without a political platform? Will they seek open council seats or run in the mayoral races?Join our panel, Mark Cripps, Keith Leslie, and host Laura Babcock as they dive deep into these pressing questions, providing insightful analysis that you won’t want to miss.
