A graduate of Oxford University with BA and MA degrees in Modern History and postgraduate studies on the Middle East at the London School of Economics, Sieff began his journalism in the early 1980s covering the Northern Ireland conflict for the Belfast Telegraph and News-Letter, later reporting from more than 70 countries and a dozen wars, including hotspots in Israel, the West Bank, Bosnia, Indonesia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and the Baltic states.

    #946 - Caylan Ford & Bruce Pardy

    I’m joined by Caylan Ford and Bruce Pardy to discuss the Alberta Teachers Strike. Caylan Ford is the founder of Canada’s fastest-growing tuition-free classical charter school network, Alberta Classical Academy. A former federal policy advisor with degrees from Calgary, George Washington, and Oxford. She also co-produced award-winning documentaries exposing human rights abuses. In 2019, she was a rising UCP star candidate until a leaked private chat about cultural preservation was weaponized as “white supremacy,” forcing her resignation within hours; she’s now suing for defamation. Bruce Pardy is a Queen’s University law professor, executive director of the law-and-liberty think-tank Rights Probe, and one of Canada’s sharpest classical-liberal critics of the “managerial state.” A former Bay Street litigator and decade-long adjudicator on Ontario’s Environmental Review Tribunal, he now writes and speaks on the front lines of the legal culture war—defending individual autonomy, free markets, property rights, and the rule of law against what he calls the “Unholy Trinity” of bureaucracy, human-rights tribunals, and activist courts.
