Common Sense Conservatism? Values, Politics & Building Something New

This week on The McNeil Show, Ryan and Aimee dive into a big conversation that’s been on their minds: what would it look like to create a new grassroots movement in Nova Scotia built on common sense values?

Inspired by Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA, they explore the gap between everyday working-class values and today’s political parties, comparing conservative vs. liberal principles, and questioning whether anyone is really standing up for the middle class anymore.

Along the way, Ryan and Aimee get candid about:
• Why common sense feels absent in Canadian politics
• Conservative vs. Liberal values — and where they clash
• The struggles of the working and middle class today
• Issues of immigration, jobs, and cultural identity
• The role of family, faith, and responsibility in society
• How to actually start a movement — nonprofit vs. political party

Whether you agree or disagree, this is a raw, thought-provoking discussion about where we’re headed as a society and what it would take to organize for change.
