    ARE WE IN THE EARLY STAGES OF WW3? HOW CAN COUNTRIES STOP TRUMP, PUTIN AND NETANYAHU?

    2026-03-09 | 22 mins.
    n light of the alarming reports linking Trump's administration to the tragic deaths of schoolgirls in Iran, alongside Netanyahu's regime allegedly creating acid rain over Tehran and deploying chemical weapons in Lebanon, it's imperative that we confront the escalating crisis head-on. Meanwhile, as Putin intensifies his attacks on Ukraine, the drastic rise in oil prices poses a significant threat to global stability.

    Prime Minister Mark Carney's urgent call to Trump to discuss the economic ramifications underscores the gravity of our situation. This is not just a regional issue; the potential for conflict in the Middle East to spiral out of control and engulf the entire world is a pressing reality we cannot ignore.

    Join Joni Askola, who brings invaluable insights from Finland and experience as a volunteer supporting the Ukrainian war effort, as he discusses these critical matters with Laura Babcock. Their thoughtful examination of the risks we face is essential viewing. We must engage in this discussion to understand the potential consequences of inaction and to advocate for a peaceful resolution before it’s too late.

    TRUMP WAGES WAR, CARNEY VISITS JAPAN, SMITH SWITCHES SIDES, POILIEVRE'S PATHETIC PLAN

    2026-03-06 | 22 mins.
    As the illegal war initiated by Trump and Netanyahu against Iran intensifies, it is spreading to multiple countries and poses a significant threat to global stability. Amidst this turmoil, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is proactively strengthening our alliances in Japan, demonstrating true leadership in these challenging times. Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre’s antics in the UK are a stark reminder of the contrasts in our political landscape.

    In Alberta, recent polls reveal that the majority of Albertans are firmly against separation. It's interesting to see Premier Danielle Smith suddenly claiming to have been pro-Canada all along. Is this a genuine shift, or simply a response to the political climate?

    Join Douglas Connors from the True North Eager Beaver and host Laura Babcock as they tackle these pressing issues with insight and humour. Let’s shine a light on the week's news and remind ourselves of the importance of unity and democracy.

    But it doesn’t stop there. Laura is joined by Rahki Pancholi, the Deputy NDP Leader in Alberta, to confront the troubling rhetoric coming from Premier Danielle Smith.

    SCANDAL PANEL: CARNEY CRUSHES IT, DANIELLE DEFICIT, RACIST SEPARATISTS, HOCKEY MISOGYNY

    2026-02-27 | 49 mins.
    With 99 countries tuned into The OShow, it's clear that the world cares about Canada and the urgent need to protect our democracy. While Pierre Poilievre attempts to distance himself from the extreme MAGA elements within his party with a speech, it's evident that his efforts are way too little and way too late. In stark contrast, Prime Minister Mark Carney is leading with integrity, boasting the highest approval ratings of any Canadian Prime Minister while working tirelessly to reset trade relations in India.

    Meanwhile, Danielle Smith is facing backlash over an astounding $9 billion deficit in Alberta, yet she shockingly chooses to blame the very immigrants she welcomed into the province for her failures. This dangerous anti-immigrant rhetoric, paired with the racist remarks from separatist leaders, raises critical questions. Is racism at the core of the MAGA and Separatist movements that threaten the fabric of Canada?

    We invite you to be part of this authentic conversation! Our panel, featuring Mark Cripps and Keith Leslie, alongside host Laura Babcock, will dive deep into these pressing issues, including the ongoing war in Ukraine, misogyny in men's hockey, and so much more. Don't just listen—subscribe, share your thoughts, and challenge us if you disagree. Let’s engage in meaningful dialogue during these turbulent times! Your voice matters!
