    Are we witnessing the END of free speech?

    Last week, True North’s Rupa Subramanya testified before the U.S. Congress, cautioning lawmakers about the decline of free speech in Canada and urging them not to adopt the policies of the Trudeau government. While free speech, even expressing the most deplorable views, is still valued in the U.S., the same cannot be said for other Western countries, particularly in Canada. Here, the government can freeze your bank account if you express certain political views, and news publications are banned on social platforms due to Bill C-18. In this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa recounts her experience at the U.S. Congress and elaborates on how we are witnessing the erosion of free speech in Canada and beyond.

    A former Gazan prisoner speaks out

    Today on The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa speaks with Manar Al Sharif. From her roots in Syria to her fervent activism in Gaza, Manar’s journey embodies an unyielding commitment to shedding light on the challenges faced by Gazan women and children. In April 2020, Al-Sharif was arrested for promoting a Zoom event called “Skype with your enemy” that featured Israeli speakers. The event planners were also arrested. As a consequence, Al-Sharif spent three months in a Hamas women’s prison. Al-Sharif shares her story with Rupa and her thoughts on the current Israel-Hamas war. Tune into The Rupa Subramanya Show!

    Former Muslim explains why she left Islam

    Droves of Muslims are taking part in pro-Hamas protests in cities across Canada. While not all protesters endorse the atrocities of Hamas, a handful of activists have defended the terrorist organization’s actions and have even called for the destruction of Israel. How did these abhorrent views get imported into Canada? On this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa is joined by Yasmine Mohammed. Yasmine is a dedicated human rights campaigner who stands as a fierce advocate for the rights of women within Muslim-majority countries and anyone oppressed under the grip of religious fundamentalism worldwide. In her book, ‘Unveiled,’ Yasmine offers an intimate perspective—born in the Western world but raised within a fundamentalist Islamic home. Rupa and Yasmine discuss her struggle for freedom, her views on Islam, and why she believes there are so many in the West supportive of Hamas’ terrorist activities. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The stigma surrounding Christine Anderson

    Christine Anderson, a member of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, found herself at the centre of a political firestorm after being labeled a “Nazi” by Liberal MPs and the legacy media due to her strong views on Islam and immigration reform. But after inviting and applauding a literal Nazi in the House of Commons, should Liberals be so quick to throw around such an egregious title? Conservative party leader Pierre Poilievre also condemned Anderson, claiming her views had no place in politics and insinuating regret over the MPs who met with her. Anderson staunchly rejects these characterizations. On this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa meets with Anderson to discuss this and more. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Should pro-Hamas protests be banned? (Ft. Josh Dehass)

    Hamas, a designated terrorist organization, is responsible for a heinous attack which resulted in many Israeli hostages and hundreds of civilians murdered. They have also been accused of using Palestinian civilians as human shields. Despite Hamas’ brutal crimes, western countries are witnessing massive pro-Hamas protests taking place in public places. As a result, governments have resorted to banning these protests. But do these protesters have a right to protest despite supporting a designated terrorist organization? Rupa Subramanya says if these protests remain peaceful, they should not be banned by governments. Protesters have a right to free speech and a right to assembly. On this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa is joined by counsel at the Canadian Constitution Fund, Josh Dehass, to discuss this contentious issue. Learn more about your ad choices.

    The barbarity of Hamas (Ft. Gerald Steinberg)

    Israel is currently witnessing the worst terrorist attack in its history as Hamas terrorists have infiltrated Israel to launch a brutal attack, leaving hundreds dead, including two Canadians. Hamas terrorists have demonstrated their complete disregard for human lives by targeting innocent civilians, including women, the elderly, and even babies. In response, Israel has declared war on Hamas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed Hamas “will pay a price it has never known.” On this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa is joined by Gerald Steinberg, a professor at Bar Ilan University, to help make sense of what’s happening in Israel.

    Uncovering the truth behind the ‘unmarked graves’

    In 2021, Canadians were shocked to learn of the apparent remains of children found buried at a former residential school in B.C – or at least that’s what Canadians were told by the legacy media. In response to the news, Canada was accused of committing genocide, churches were burned down, and the country was put in a permanent state of mourning. However, what isn’t widely talked about is the fact that no human remains have been found at any of the sites where apparent remains were said to be. Is this the biggest fake news story in Canadian history? Has the legacy media performed a huge disservice to Canadians and Indigenous peoples? On this episode of The Rupa Subramanya Show, Rupa is joined by Karen Restoule to discuss the ‘unmarked graves’ narrative and how it has impacted Canada. Karen is the vice-president of Crestview Strategy and is Ojibwe from the Dokis First Nation. Learn more about Karen’s initiative www.whose.land, a web-based mobile app that provides users with information about Indigenous territories. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Trudeau’s pattern of incompetence

    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has found himself at the center of controversy once again, and Canadians are left feeling humiliated once more. First, Trudeau accused the Indian government of assassinating a Khalistani activist, resulting in a series of tit-for-tat exchanges between India and Canada. Trudeau has yet to provide evidence to back up his accusation, and allies have remained silent on the matter. Last week, parliamentarians invited and then gave a standing ovation to a Ukrainian veteran who served in a Nazi military unit. While Trudeau has tried to pin the blame on the Speaker of the House of Commons and apologized on behalf of Canadians, the buck ultimately stops with him. Conservative strategist Anthony Koch joins the Rupa Subramanya show to discuss how Trudeau continues to embarrass Canada on the world stage. Learn more about your ad choices.
