The United Nations refugee agency operating in the Palestinian terroritories, UNRWA, is facing bombshell allegations from Israel that a dozen of its staff were involved in Hamas' Oct. 7 attack on Israel, with one of them actively involved in a kidnapping. Canada has paused funding of UNRWA but an NDP MP's response was to donate money to the agency. True North's Andrew Lawton says UNRWA's association with terrorists is nothing new – this is just the latest example. Also, Andrew gives an update on Michael Mann v Mark Steyn, the climate change free speech trial underway in Washington, D.C. Plus, we launch a new segment called Unjust Transition, an interview series with representatives of Canada's energy sector who are speaking out against the federal government's desire to transition away from oil and gas. Today's episode features Michael Binnion, head of the Modern Miracle Network and CEO of Questerre Energy. That, and a chat with Avi Yemini and Ezra Levant on the streets of Davos about why independent journalists are the only ones holding the World Economic Forum and its elites to account.

The very mention of the words “parental rights” is enough to send the left in Alberta into a complete meltdown. On the weekend, Danielle Smith announced her plans to introduce parental rights legislation this week and Alberta NDP members freaked out and accused Smith of targeting children. Putting an end to “socially transitioning” children behind the backs of their parents is not targeting children as Rachel Notley would like you to believe. It’s simply the right thing to do. It makes you wonder why the Alberta Teachers Association is so upset about not being able to keep secrets with children away from parents anymore. Watch the latest episode of Ratio’d

Canadian commentator and author Mark Steyn is on trial for allegedly defaming Michael Mann, a former Penn State climate professor and the creator of the infamous "hockey stick graph" showing a surge in global warming in the 20th century. In a 270-word blog post in 2012, Steyn called the graph "fraudulent." Twelve years later, the case is finally on trial in Washington, D.C. True North's Andrew Lawton is in the courtroom this week covering it. In this episode, he gives a primer on the case with Phelim McAleer, who, along with Ann McElhinney, is chronicling the case through daily recaps and reenactments in the podcast Climate Change on Trial. Also, Canadian Taxpayers Federation Alberta director Kris Sims returns to talk about Alberta ramping up oil production and how the tax on the carbon tax is gouging Canadians.

Earlier this week, the Federal Court declared Justin Trudeau’s use of the Emergencies Act unconstitutional, prompting the Liberals to announce their intent to appeal the decision.

This week on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel discusses the left melting down over Tucker Carlson’s visit to Alberta. While appearing on Carlson’s show, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced that she would double Alberta’s oil and gas production. Also on the show, there was an active shooter at Edmonton City Hall this week and gunshots can be heard during a recording of a city council committee meeting. And finally, CSIS is warning Alberta of foreign entities wishing to exert their influence due to the province’s economy, resources and large number of ethnic communities.

The salaries for members of Parliament are expected to rise by 4.2% on April 1, despite the federal government’s $1 trillion debt and the increased financial challenges currently facing taxpayers. Canadian Taxpayers Federation Alberta director Kris Sims joined True North’s Andrew Lawton to discuss the timing and necessity of such a salary increase, and the message it sends to Canadians. ——————————————————————————— - JOIN True North - https://tnc.news/subscribe/ - DONATE to True North - https://tnc.news/donate/ Share us online and spread the word!

Tucker Carlson was in Calgary and Edmonton yesterday on what he described as his mission to “liberate Canada” from the authoritarian grip of Justin Trudeau. Carlson’s ire didn’t stop at Trudeau. In Edmonton, the conservative commentator also took several shots at Chrystia Freeland. Carlson directed the attention of the sold-out crowd to the government’s treatment of Christians in this country, the dystopian euthanasia regime implemented under the Liberal government, Canada’s out of control mass immigration agenda and the “safe supply” drug strategy that is wreaking havoc on Canadians. On the latest episode of Ratio’d, Harrison brings us the highlights of the best moments of Tucker Carlson’s tour through Alberta.

For a brief moment this week, it looked like Justin Trudeau was facing criticism from inside his own house when Avalon member of Parliament Ken McDonald indicated support for a leadership review. However, soon after McDonald backtracked and praised Trudeau's abilities as a campaigner while assuring people he wasn't seeking a review. While it isn't all that believable, it shows that Trudeau still has a tight grip on his caucus with no room for dissent, True North's Andrew Lawton says. Also, thousands of people came out in Alberta yesterday to hear from Tucker Carlson as well as Premier Danielle Smith, Jordan Peterson, Conrad Black, and W. Brett Wilson. True North's Rachel Emmanuel joins the show to talk about what went down. Plus, what does the Federal Court's smackdown of Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act mean for civil liberties in Canada? Lawyer James Manson of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms weighs in.

On Monday, the Federal Court ruled that Justin Trudeau’s use of the Emergencies Act to quash the Freedom Convoy protests was unconstitutional, saying the decision to invoke the measures was beyond its scope and unreasonable. Former Conservative interim leader Candice Bergen joined True North’s Andrew Lawton to share her thoughts on the ruling. ——————————————————————————— - JOIN True North - https://tnc.news/subscribe/ - DONATE to True North - https://tnc.news/donate/ Share us online and spread the word!

It's now a matter of fact and law that Justin Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act was illegal. The government violated the constitution by freezing bank accounts and cracking down on civil liberties. And even invoking the Emergencies Act in the first place was done without compliance with the act itself. Even though the federal government is vowing to appeal, yesterday's Federal Court ruling is a black mark on Trudeau's government. In this edition of The Andrew Lawton Show, Christine Van Geyn of the Canadian Constitution Foundation returns to dig into the decision and discuss what it means. Former Conservative leader Candice Bergen returns to talk about why she remains proud of being on the "right side of history" for opposing the act. Plus, the Liberals are still trying to make their misguided firearms "buyback" happen. Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights CEO Rod Giltaca joins to discuss the latest.

It's the two-year anniversary of the first leg of the Freedom Convoy setting out for Ottawa from Delta, British Columbia. Today, the Federal Court ruled that Justin Trudeau's use of the Emergencies Act was unreasonable, unconstitutional, and outside the parameters of the act. True North's Andrew Lawton discusses what this means for Canada. Plus, the Liberals are still trying to make their misguided firearms "buyback" happen. Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights CEO Rod Giltaca joins to discuss the latest.

Who saw this one coming? Last week, a Quebec man pleaded guilty to intentionally setting 14 forests on fire during the Spring of 2023. A few days later, Nova Scotia police charged a man for intentionally setting off the provinces largest ever wildfire, also during the same time. During Canada’s wildfire season, any mention that the string of devastating wildfires may have been caused by arsonists was ridiculed by the legacy media and labeled conspiracy theories. What the Liberal establishment in Canada wanted more than anything to be true was that climate change started the wildfires all across Canada – but it just simply wasn’t. Maybe the real conspiracy theorists in this story are people, like Steven Guilbeault and Justin Trudeau, who believe that climate change set Canada’s forests ablaze. Despite the best efforts from Liberal politicians and legacy media journalists, the public never fully bought in to the narrative they were peddling and, sure enough, the people were right and the politicians were wrong.

The Liberal government has announced a two-year cap on international student visas amid mounting frustrations with Canada's immigration system and rampant fraud within the international student visa program. The cap will reduce by 35% the number of student visas issued, but is this enough to deal with the problems? True North's Andrew Lawton says it's unlikely. Also, the salaries for members of Parliament are set to rise by $8,100 to $16,200 this year. Canadian Taxpayers Federation Alberta director Kris Sims joins to weigh in. Plus, True North has returned from Davos after a week of holding the elites and their anti-energy, anti-free speech agenda to account. Andrew does a debrief of our coverage of the World Economic Forum.

This week on the Alberta Roundup with Rachel Emmanuel, Rachel discusses Rachel Notley’s announcement that she will step down as the leader of the Alberta NDP once a new leader is elected.

The World Economic Forum's 2024 annual meeting has come to an end. Over the last five days, many world leaders have dodged very basic questions about what they are doing – or want to do – in the world, which doesn't exactly help rebuild trust in institutions, which WEF said its Davos summit was trying to do.

Here at Davos, the global elites don't just talk about money — they flaunt it! They drive luxury cars, wear expensive furs and buy watches worth more than the average person's annual salary.

When people at the World Economic Forum talk about freedom of expression, it isn't favourable. One Davos regular, Australian eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant previously said we need to "recalibrate" freedom of expression. True North's Andrew Lawton caught up with her on on the streets of Davos to ask her what she meant – she was clear that free speech needs to be balanced against other things, like people's feelings of safety on the internet. ——————————————————————————— - JOIN True North - https://tnc.news/subscribe/ - DONATE to True North - https://tnc.news/donate/ Share us online and spread the word!

In the buildup to UFC 297 in Toronto, UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland went nuclear on Canada’s legacy media journalists at a press conference. In a typical move for Canadian sports journalists, instead of asking Strickland about his upcoming fight, one journalist tried to ask the UFC fighter about comments he made years ago on social media. Instead of taking the bait, Strickland turned the tables on the journalist and put him in his place. In another instance, he asked a Canadian Press journalist if he supported the Trudeau government seizing protesters bank accounts during the Freedom Convoy. Strickland did his homework on Canada’s legacy media. He knew what was coming and played them perfectly. Tune into the latest episode of Ratio’d with Harrison Faulkner

One of the many ideas discussed at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos this year was freedom of expression. Global elites often aren't fond of freedom of expression, from tech companies that restrict their users' speech to leaders of international organizations calling for regulation of what they call "misinformation." True North's Andrew Lawton takes a look at what some of them are trying to do – and why Canadians in particular should be worried. Also, Chrystia Freeland told her WEF colleagues how the Canadian government needs to force "decarbonization" – but that it's okay because it will lead to "more jobs."

Global elites have descended on Davos to outline their ideas on rebuilding trust in a fragmented world, amongst other critical global issues.

There's a different feeling this year in Davos than in the last couple of years. The rich and powerful used to roam the streets freely without anyone paying them attention. Now, the number of independent journalists paying attention to the World Economic Forum has grown, and the attendees are far more skittish. The ones that do appear are trying to gaslight people about their records, from John Kerry saying he never flies by private jet and Alibaba Group president J. Michael Evans downplaying the "individual carbon footprint tracker" he touted in Davos just two years ago. True North's Andrew Lawton discusses this and the latest as his live coverage of the World Economic Forum's 2024 annual meeting continues. Plus, Klaus Schwab says WEF attendees are the "trustees of the future." Do you trust your future with them?
