Poutine Politics
1 SET 2020 · Mike has some very particular, possibly peculiar, thoughts on hunting compared to fishing, and wanted to share them with Adam and the rest of the audience.

25 AGO 2020 · Jason Nixon - Minister of Environment and Parks for the Province of Alberta. Seems like it would be an important position within the government. You know, the government that is planning on selling public parkland, and gives tax incentives and breaks that benefit the resource sector like a one-trick pony.
But who is Jason Nixon, really? What makes him qualified to be an MLA? We doubt we got to the answer, but Mike and Adam have some digging into a little bit of history.

11 AGO 2020 · It's the end of another legislative session in Alberta, and the UCP continues to double down on their mandate. Attacking unions, doctors, and blue-collar workers, while also overriding the highest court in the province by passing a new "environmental regulation" bill to benefit the resource sector?

Adam & Mike briefly review Alberta's Bills 30, 31, and 32 of 2020.

21 LUG 2020 · COVID-19 has absolutely pummeled the finances of countries around the world, and political parties are now using increasing deficits as a way to gain points on their competition.
Is the deficit really that bad under the circumstances, or do we need to hold our governments to account? Should governments be looking forward to how they expect to get out from under the increased spending caused by the pandemic? Will our grandchildren be paying for this with blood, sweat, and tears?
Adam and Mike discuss and provide their opinions on the current situation in Canada, their overall thoughts on how the country should be running its books, and whether the debt is really a concern.
