    Nothing intelligent or analytical . Just grabbing onto right wing propaganda and complaining for engagement.

  • Honest and badly needed

    Every political party, company or organization needs a hard working person from Saskatchewan or British Columbia to explain how government policy impacts people. Get out of Ottawa and give these guys a listen. Right leaning? Sure. But honest? Absolutely.

  • Good stuff

    Good podcast to pass the time. All the 1 stars are liberals who hate opinions that don’t match their own.

  • Making lefties cry

    This is another great Canadian podcast. Need evidence? Just read the crybaby lefty comments. If you’re not offending leftists and living rent free in their heads, you’re not trying hard enough.
