The OShow with Laura Babcock

This past week has been extraordinary for Canada. With Rolling Stone hailing Prime Minister Mark Carney as the Leader of the Free World and the historic state visit from Ukraine's President Zelensky, our nation is making headlines for all the right reasons. Yet, amid this remarkable achievement, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre chose to undermine our efforts by travelling to the US and casting doubt on Team Canada during a television appearance. This move not only disrespects our government but also jeopardizes our global standing. Meanwhile, Ontario Premier Doug Ford's cabinet shuffle raises serious questions about transparency and integrity, seemingly rewarding those embroiled in corruption. This is not merely politics; it's a call to action for all of us who care about the integrity of our democracy. Join Keith Leslie, Mark Cripps, and Laura Babcock as they tackle these pressing issues and the 25th anniversary of 911 with a dynamic blend of seriousness, humour and rage. Their raucous take on the week's events is more than just entertainment; it’s a vital reminder of the importance of holding our leaders accountable.

After an intense weekend marked by outrageous verbal and visual attacks on Canada from the Trump regime, coupled with alarming threats of annexation over the western hemisphere, we must stand together.

On this Labour Day, we find ourselves at a critical crossroads. President Trump is intensifying his hostile rhetoric towards Canada, making absurd threats to ban Bombardier and flooding social media with ridiculous memes depicting a faux battle with PM Mark Carney. While Carney issues a statement about unity, it's clear the threat against Canada is growing. At the same time, we witness troubling developments abroad, with far-right factions gaining traction in Germany, and the spectre of an Alberta separatist referendum looms large. These are not just isolated incidents—they signify a broader erosion of democracy that we cannot ignore. Join the conversation with Charlie Angus, the Leader of the Canadian Resistance and Host of Meidas Canada, as he sits down with OShow Host Laura Babcock.
