The True North Eager Beaver

Team Canada Minus Alberta — The Daily Beaver Morning Show

Season 4, Ep. 559

On Episode 559 of our show, we explore Alberta Premier Danielle Smith emerges from the big meeting between the PM and the Premiers deciding to be the cheese who stands alone by not signing the final communique, insisting that Canada prepare for a potential trade war with the United States with one hand tied behind our back. We also look at some clips from the post-meeting press conference Meanwhile, Ontario Premier Doug Ford debuts a new hat as Pierre Poilièvre is still in hiding. We also have a touch of post-convoy schadenfreude.

    02:38:42||Season 4, Ep. 611
     On Episode 611, though U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick promised Ontario Premier Doug Ford there'd be no surprises on tariffs, the USA had a little 'Signal' issue & so, IQ 47 needed to change the channel. We also discuss the launch of the Bloc Québecois's "national' campaign, during which Yves-François Blanchet had some very interesting thoughts about tariffs, Canadian sovereignty as well as the prospects for Québec independence, as he cleverly applied a rather solid frame to the party's raison-d'être this time around.In addition, Con Party Leader Pierre Poilièvre's math starts to no longer math (one can only fund so much by gutting foreign aid & the CBC) as he flip-flops on big, bloated, government programs in which, he once infamously told us, Cons don't believe.. & this latest attack of Mark Carney flops. ________________________________________________The Daily Beaver Morning Show is 100% by Canadians, for Canadians & broadcast LIVE (most of the time), weekdays at 7-ish a.m. (EDT).Join the Best #DAMFAM in all podcasting™ to participate in the live chat on YouTube [youtube.com/@truenortheagerbeavermedia]Your kind financial support helps us cover the costs of production.

    Episode 610 of The Daily Beaver Morning Show), Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilièvre gets knocked off message for third day in a row thanks to his double troubles: Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, on one side, seemingly doing all she can to tie him to the Trump administration and, on the other side, journalist Bob Fife "The Knife" bringing up national security and foreign interference issues that raise reasonable questions about the CPC leader's lack of SCI-level security clearance, and his unwillingness to seek it.We also discuss this campaign's debates. The dates for the national media consortium debates have been set for April 17 and 18, whereas the TVA Face-à-Face debate will ultimately not take place following an odd request by the network seeking to host it.________________________________________________The Daily Beaver Morning Show is 100% by Canadians, for Canadians & broadcast LIVE (most of the time), weekdays at 7-ish a.m. (EDT)Join the Best #DAMFAM in all podcasting™ to participate in the live chat on our YouTube channel [youtube.com/@truenortheagerbeavermedia]Your financial support helps us cover the costs of bringing our show to you.
