Tumbler Ridge Update: Why Did the Police Return the Guns One Month Ago?

Tumbler Ridge, BC mass shooting update: 9 dead (including the shooter), 27 injured. An 18-year-old with serious mental health issues — guns were seized by RCMP in the past, then returned after petitioning.Why were those firearms given back? We take a moment of silence for the victims and families, refuse to name the shooter, and break down what we know: long gun + modified handgun recovered, history of mental health calls, multiple RCMP visits, apprehension under Mental Health Act, no criminal charges, and guns legally returned to the household.RCMP press conference clip included — they’re calling the suspect “female,” but facts point to a male with severe untreated issues having access to firearms.Is this a gun problem, or a massive mental health and enforcement failure? We also touch on Carney’s push for more gun control (watch the clip) and the pattern: Liberals using tragedies to advance the ban agenda — just like after Nova Scotia 2020.Full episode live tonight — heavy audience chat, no guests, just real talk.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

Carney's $772K Taxpayer Travels – Is He the Only One or is This Normal

Mark Carney's expenses are blowing up — $772K on in-flight catering and accommodations in just one year? $230K on a single Vatican trip with his wife and daughter? $472K on six trips since being elected? Taxpayers are furious, and rightly so.But here's the real question: Is Carney the only one living large on our dime... or is this just HOW OTTAWA WORKS?We dig into the numbers, the perks, the automatic April 1 raises (projected 4.2% this year), the $350K–$400K office budgets, 64 free flight points for family (business class), secondary residence allowances that let MPs build equity on our backs, daily per diems, hospitality budgets, and pensions indexed to inflation.Total taxpayer burden per backbench MP? Easily over $700,000 a year.Does that make sense to you?Here's my fix: Pay MPs the average Canadian salary (~$68,000) and let their riding decide any bonus by referendum. They work for us — let us vote on whether they deserve extra.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

Carney PAUSES EV Mandate – But the $100 Trillion+ 2050 Agenda is Still ON

While the headlines celebrate the "pause" of the Federal EV Mandate, the truth is much darker. The 2035 zero-emissions goal is still on the books, and the $100 Trillion+ Energy Transition is moving forward full steam ahead. We follow the money from the UN to the WEF and straight into the pockets of the corporate giants like Brookfield.Poilievre meets with Mark Carney, while principled voices like Jamil Jivani head to the U.S. Finally, we are joined by Mia Hughes, author of the WPATH Files and Director of Genspect Canada, to discuss a massive failure within the Conservative Party. We’re dissecting the CPC Motion A-16-1282 and why the party seems to be backing down on protecting children to save their media optics.If you’re tired of the "Woke Left" and the "Controlled Right," join Nico Lagan and Rob Ambrose as we dissect the news from the perspective of the Political Orphan.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.
