    Canada Immigration Future: Carney And Ford Want More While Poilievre Says Origin Doesn't Matter

    Is Canada immigration about to change? Because our leaders just showed us where they stand and tonight on The Political Orphans, I break down what Canada's immigration future could look like if our political leaders get their way. Mark Carney told The New York Times it's time to resume "some controlled increase in the population," adding "that will happen." By law, the Liberals must table the annual Immigration Levels Plan on or before November 1, so we won't have to wait long to see the numbers. Doug Ford called the idea of sending temporary workers home "the craziest thing I have ever heard" and said "we need people." So I look at what happened to Ontario's population during his eight years as premier: from 14.3 million to 16.3 million, with about 98% of the net growth coming from immigration. Then there's Pierre Poilievre, who says it doesn't matter whether your name is Smith or Singh, Poilievre or Patel. I also look at Carney's push for EU "associate member" status, the Leger poll showing 70% support for a status nobody has defined yet, and the talks about letting Canadians live and work in Europe visa-free. What would that mean in the other direction? Since 2000, Canada's population has grown 36%, from 30.7 million to 41.8 million. Is anyone in Ottawa putting Canadians first? Watch the full breakdown, then tell me in the comments what you think Canada's immigration should look like. 💲Support my work by donating right here on YouTube or buy me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/nicolagan 🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

    Got bones? Simple Question Or Residential School Denialism? Canada’s Day Of Truth And Reconciliation

    Yesterday was Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Instead of a day about truth, it became a day about a banner with two words on it: "Got bones?" Prime Minister Mark Carney called it a cowardly act. BC Premier David Eby called it disgraceful. Conservative MP Frank Caputo told the people behind it to go home and never come back. Liberals, Conservatives and NDPers all agreed that asking the question was hateful. So I'm asking it again. Where are the bodies? And what happened to the $12.1 million in federal funding the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation received after the 2021 announcement? Ottawa waived the quarterly reporting requirements, redacted the reports, and no remains have been recovered. Why is it so hard to answer two simple questions? In this episode: 🎙️ My exclusive interview with political scientist Frances Widdowson, wrongfully terminated from Mount Royal University 🎙️ My exclusive interview with Jim McMurtry 📌 Dallas Brodie told that digging would be "inhumane" 📌 Niigaan Sinclair, Governor General Louise Arbour, and the push to confront "denialism" 📌 NDP MP Leah Gazan's proposal to make residential school denialism a crime 📌 What the Innocence Project's data says about relying on eyewitness memory Should asking questions be illegal in Canada?

    Are Canadians & American Truckers Going On Strike On October 1st: Real Movement Or Internet Gossip?

    Diesel prices have exploded — Canada up 56%, the US up 75% since the Iran war began in late February. Now videos are spreading claiming truckers across Canada and the US are striking October 1st. Is it real?I sat down with Chris Barber, one of the main faces of the 2022 Freedom Convoy and owner-operator of his own trucking company, to talk about what these diesel prices are actually doing to his business, and why he's personally parking his trucks on October 1st.Then I traced this whole story back to where it started, checked what OOIDA, the Teamsters, and major trucking outlets are actually saying, and tried to answer the real question: is this a coordinated strike, internet gossip that got out of hand, or a grassroots movement in the making, just like 2022 started?Watch and decide for yourself, then let me know in the comments: do you think this strike is actually happening, and if it does, do truckers have the power to change anything?💲Support my work by donating right here on YouTube or buy me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/nicolagan🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

    Whitby Man Arrested And Charged Under Bill C-9 | Should YOU Open the Door When Police Knock?

    On September 23, 2026, Durham Regional Police arrested and charged a 57-year-old Whitby man, Sean Farro, with Offence Motivated by Hatred – Uttering Threats and Incite Hatred in Public Place over a post on his Facebook page. Police haven't said exactly what he posted, but CTV and CP24 report it was an image advertising a "hunting permit" against Muslims in North America, captioned "I suggest everyone register now." So did that post meet the legal threshold? How does a Facebook profile become a "public place" under the Criminal Code? And with Bill C-9 now law, how many more Canadians will get a knock at the door over something they said online? That brings us to the question every Canadian should be asking: should you answer the door when police come knocking? To answer it, I sat down with constitutional lawyer Leighton Grey and Actions4Canada founder Tanya Gaw, whose viral encounter with two RCMP constables at her door was viewed by millions. We cover: ✅ The limits of police authority at your door ✅ When you can legally tell police to leave ✅ Whether what you say can be used against you ✅ Why you should record any interaction ✅ Why "the process is the punishment" Sean Farro has been charged, not convicted. The allegations have not been proven in court.

    Allison Inquiry: 2 Weeks Later | What Has It Actually Accomplished? What Do We Know Now?

    Two weeks after the Allison Inquiry wrapped, the dust has settled — so what actually happened? I sat down with Vaccine Choice Canada's president and National Citizens Inquiry chair Ted Kuntz to talk about what four days of testimony, 50+ witnesses, and a possible 500 million views actually accomplished. We get into the MPs who didn't show up — ten out of 343, maximum five in the room at once — the senators who stayed home, the mainstream media that sat this one out entirely, and why even the MPs who did attend seemed like they couldn't be bothered. We also get into accountability — or the total lack of it — and why neither of us think it's coming from this government anytime soon. This isn't the end of the story. It's the beginning of asking who's actually going to answer for it. 💲Support my work by donating right here on YouTube or buy me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/nicolagan 🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

    68% OPPOSE Them: AI Data Centers Are Coming To Your Backyard And Here's The Real Cost!

    68% of Canadians say they don't want a large AI data centre within a few blocks of their home. It's being built anyway — in Saskatchewan, in Alberta, across the country, with tens of billions of dollars behind it. Tonight, NCI LIVE and The Political Orphans join forces for a special broadcast on the AI data centre boom sweeping Canada. Former Telecom Sales Engineer Nico Lagan is joined by Saskatchewan farmer and livestock nutrition consultant John Graff. John gave testimony at the NCI hearings in High River on what this infrastructure actually costs — the electricity, the water, the land, and what it means for the food we eat. We break down what's actually being built, why it's being built here, and what Canadians need to understand before it's too late to have a say. These questions point to a broader conversation about land, authority, and property rights — issues the National Citizens Inquiry will examine further at its December hearings in Richmond, BC. Drop your questions in the comments — we'll be taking them live. Because Truth Matters. 💲Support my work by donating right here on YouTube or buy me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/nicolagan 🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

    Calgary Police Deploys Drones As First Responders Same Week Carney Announces Canadian Drone Industry

    Calgary just became the latest Canadian city to send drones to 911 calls before officers even arrive — but they're not the first, and they won't be the last. Tonight I break down which police forces across Canada are already doing this, what these drones can actually see and record, and why Mark Carney announcing a massive new Canadian drone industry the same week — in the same city — is worth paying attention to. We cover: The 7 Canadian police forces already using or testing Drone-as-First-Responder programs What the Skydio X10 drones Calgary is using can actually detect — plate numbers, faces, people from miles away Why "nothing is being recorded" doesn't mean what police want you to think it means Section 8 of the Charter and what "reasonable expectation of privacy" actually protects — and doesn't The legal gray zone above your own house that most Canadians don't know exists Carney and Zelenskyy's drone announcement — and the same-week, same-city timing with Calgary's police drone rollout 💲Support my work by donating right here on YouTube or buy me a coffee 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/nicolagan 🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.
