Betcha didn't see this coming! (we sure didn't) With Alberta rolling back human rights and access to abortion increasingly on the table, we sat down with Federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Federal NDP MP Leah Gazan to hear what the federal NDP are planning to try and ensure that access to healthcare doesn't fall victim to the agenda of social regressives!

We’re back! And we’re kicking off the new year by asking what it even means to be conservative or progressive in the province of Alberta anymore! We take a look at Danielle Smiths track record, her year and comments and we deconstruct her appearance on the “program” Alberta Update that’s run by UCP staff and paid for by taxpayers and we measure that against the definition of conservative! But the NDP don’t get a pass in this episode either as we take a look at their frenzy around the changes to gifts introduced by the UCP that the NDP completely got wrong! Plus we now have merch that's available at www.abpoli.ca, including a fall lineup!

We're rounding the year off by revisiting our top 10 episode of 2023 (in no particular order). Guy Felicella spent 30 years in the repeated cycle of gangs, addiction, treatment, and jail. He spent nearly twenty years residing in a two-block radius in Vancouver’s notorious Downtown Eastside. Miraculously, with sheer determination and the help of others through harm reduction and recovery, Guy managed to survive the HIV/AIDS crisis in the DTES, two decades of being homeless, multiple life-threatening bone infections, and six drug overdoses.

We're rounding the year off by revisiting our top 10 episode of 2023 (in no particular order). Collin May is a highly educated lawyer who made the news in 2022 when he was appointed to be the chair of the Alberta Human Rights Commission, but that was only the start of his media coverage… Later that year, an academic book review he provided was portrayed as being Islamophobic by some and racist by others. Collin was eventually fired from his position by the government and has since initiated multiple legal actions. We sat down with Collin to hear his story and what he shares is not only shocking, but a potential glimpse as to how political parties will go to extreme lengths to cover up their own mistakes.

We're back for another weekly Alberta Politics roundup! We start by breaking down some of the biggest news stories of the last week of Alberta politics, including the Westlock Crosswalk situation, a CSIS report that should turn significantly more heads than it has, Tanya Fir's very bad week in the Legislature, multiple leaks from the oils sands up north, Smith launching the Sovereignty Act (kinda) AND... We get into th results of our FOIP requests on the Pension Report that seem to strongly suggest that there's much, much more to the story than the government is telling Albertans.
