Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Jill Bennett Show, Sept 21, 2026
Q: What happens now with Lauren Dirksen as interim leader and potential rejoining by former members?
Dirksen has a big job to rebuild the party, and discussions with former members will be crucial to stabilize the caucus and present a unified centre-right option in the province.
The Jill Bennett Show, Sept 21, 2026
Q: Okay. When you heard the news yesterday that Carrie-Lynn Finlay announced she was resigning as leader of the BC Conservative Party, what was your response?
I think it was not overly surprising given the number of resignations and the pressure from members; it signaled a turning point and the need for leadership to unify a fractured caucus.
How do you know you're buying Canadian?
Q: What are the current capabilities of the directory and what future features are you planning?
Right now you can search for a brand and find Canadian alternatives with detailed ownership and origin info. In the future, we want to enable searches by product type (e.g., ketchup) so users can see Canadian alternatives for specific product categories.
How do you know you're buying Canadian?
Q: How does the site actually determine if a product is truly Canadian and what details do you verify?
We verify ownership, where the company is headquartered, where manufacture happens, and look for small print details on the Canadian alternative's site. If information isn't readily available, we check press releases, corporate information, and trademarks, and we also rely on user feedback to correct misclassifications.
How do you know you're buying Canadian?
Q: How did you first get this idea to step in and help people navigate how it is to buy Canadian products?
I saw that the information was fragmented and confusing, with people asking whether something was Canadian in terms of ownership, origin, or where it's made. I created a small website that grew into a comprehensive database to provide clearer, more transparent details so consumers can decide for themselves.
