    Special Episode: Requiem For Sentient Life

    In this special unscripted from-the-heart episode, I aspire to lower the temperature in Canada and abroad to draw people back to the undeniable value of all sentient life and the pursuit of true "peace" through non-violence. There's no "two sides" to the value of life, and I try my best to secularly explain this concept.

    Coming Together - Part Two: How We Come Together

    In this follow-up to Part 1, I will cover legitimate psychology-driven techniques to help heal the divisiveness in Canada and the world that has been constructed by disinformation and echo chambers. Avoidance is not the solution and will simply make things worse. Learn how to talk about the person with differing views in your life, just in time to make those family gatherings more productive and healthy.

    Coming Together - Part One: How We Drifted Apart

    We seem to be more divided in Canada- and indeed the world- than ever before, and these seemingly irreconcilable divisions are hampering our efforts to tackle the greatest issues of mankind in Canada and abroad. In this multi-episode effort, I will explore how we got to this division and look at practical ways to help us get out and start communicating with each other again. In Part One, I will take a look at how we got here in the social media age. Newsflash: It's by design.

    The Cream Of The Crop: Canada's Supply Management Explained

    We hear a lot about "supply management" in Canada and how it seems to always come up in trade negotiations. In this episode, I will try to easily explain supply management, how it started, why we have it, the criticisms of it, and why it's a valuable system for Canadians and not just the farmers.

    A Shot Of Knowledge: Vax Facts

    Ever wonder how a vaccine gets from an idea into a syringe that's offered to you in Canada? Many steps, a lot of science, a lot of oversight, and no conspiracies. You should be much more afraid of taking a shower than getting a vaccine shot in Canada.

    The Original Canadian SIN

    Canadians and people who visit and work in Canada get a SIN, and the biggest sin is not being careful with it and knowing when to give and not to give that number. Reference material for this episode: https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/sin/protection.html

    The "Woke" Episode

    This episode probably isn't going to take the direction you think. Words have meaning.

    Rights And Freedoms Notwithstanding…

    Canadians take for granted that we enjoy robust rights and freedoms. How exactly did we get here and how are politicians circumventing these rights and freedoms to pass controversial laws?
