    Mar 26 2026

    Police Knock Over a Post… Foreign Influence & The Humboldt Case — What’s Really Going On? A Canadian woman gets a visit from police over something she posted online. At the same time, questions continue to surface around foreign influence, public advocacy, and the handling of one of the most tragic events in recent Canadian history — the Humboldt Broncos bus crash.Tonight on The Political Orphans, we bring together voices at the center of these conversations.We’re joined by Nicole Miske to break down what happened when police showed up at her door — what triggered it, what was said, and whether this kind of action is changing how Canadians think about speaking openly online.We’ll also look at the latest developments around Bill C-9, including whether the legislation has passed and what it could mean for Canadians moving forward.Later in the show, journalist Mocha Bezirgan joins us alongside Chris Joseph, father of Humboldt Broncos victim Jackson Joseph. Together, we explore questions around foreign influence, public advocacy, and whether outside pressures played any role in how the case has been handled.This is not about jumping to conclusions.It’s about asking questions, examining facts, and having conversations that many feel are being avoided.Join Nico Lagan and Rob Ambrose as we navigate the wreckage of the Canadian establishment.🔥 LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and CLICK THAT BELL to support independent media that doesn't take government handouts.

  • Is Bill C-22 The Most Dangerous Bill in Canadian History? John Carpay JCCF
    Mar 25 2026

    Is Bill C-22 The Most Dangerous Bill in Canadian History? John Carpay JCCF. In this episode John Carpay founder of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms breaks down Bill C-22 the Lawful Access Act — the bill that gives the Canadian government secret surveillance powers over every Canadian — and why Bill C-22 may be the most dangerous bill in Canadian history.


    Bill C-22 forces telecom and tech companies in Canada to build government surveillance backdoors into their systems. Secret ministerial orders. Gag orders. No warrant. No judicial oversight. No parliamentary debate. The same government that froze bank accounts during the Freedom Convoy now wants secret access to every Canadian's digital life under Bill C-22.


    Bill C-9 passed yesterday 188 to 144 moving to third reading and final vote. Can you imagine if Bill C-9 had been law during the Freedom Convoy? Thousands of Canadians arrested for hate speech for waving a flag. And now the Liberal Party wants to ban social media and AI chatbots for Canadians under 16.


    Is Bill C-22 about keeping Canadians safe — or is it the infrastructure of a surveillance state?


    Watch and decide for yourself.

  • 153,000 International Student Fraud Cases, 500,000 Overstays — And Nothing Happened
    Mar 24 2026

    153,000 International Student Fraud Cases, 500,000 Overstays — And Nothing Happened

    Canada’s Auditor General just exposed something that should be impossible to ignore.

    More than 153,000 international student visa fraud cases were identified. Only a small number were investigated. And at the same time, over 500,000 people with expired study permits were allowed to remain in Canada.

    This isn’t just a policy failure — it raises a much bigger question about whether the system is being enforced at all.

    If rules exist but aren’t applied, what does that actually mean for Canadians?

    Tonight we break down what the Auditor General’s report reveals, why so many of these cases appear to go untouched, and what this says about how immigration enforcement is being handled in Canada.

    We’ll also look at where Bill C-9 stands as it moves through Parliament, a case involving a police visit over a social media post, and new details on the federal government’s firearms compensation program.

    Different stories — but they all point to the same issue:

    Where is the accountability?

    Watch and decide for yourself.
