The True North Eager Beaver

Heeeey, Kits!

It took us a little while to get this episode assembled. We appreciate your patience

In this episode:

We have once again on the order paper the two biggest topics to retain the nation's attention: COVID and CONVOY

That's about it.

Because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, this week we have two suggestions for you.

Agitators of the FreeDumb convoy stole food out of the mouths of the homeless, so please consider making a donation to The Shepherds of Good Hope in Ottawa, your local shelter, or to a food bank.

Agitators of the FreeDumb convoy also defaced the statue of Terry Fox and disrespected the national Cenotaph. A donation to the Canadian Cancer Society or your local Legion would also be welcome at this time.

Finally, on a lighter note, we want to know: What is your favourite hibernation activity?

You can do that via our show’s Facebook blog page on via Twitter @TrueEager.

Of course, retweets, shares, gentle corrections, constructive criticism, compliments, tips, requests and positive reviews (if you think we deserve some stars, please rate us) are always welcome.

Until then, be kind to, and gentle with, yourselves,

Your Eager Beaver

(Recording Dates: February 7 & 10, 2022)

Heeeey, Kits!

In this very special episode of the podcast, we combine a bit of our regular format with our extended interview format, and it's all about our looooooooong predicted last days of Aaron... I mean, Eric... Umm, I mean, Erin! (Yes, it's) Erin... O'Toole as Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada.

We kick it off with a segment taking a look at how it all ended for him and, we discuss where the party may be going now that a leadership race will soon be declared.

And, we get to follow it up with the honour and privilege of our first ever return guest! We welcome back, Bert Chen, who, when we last chatted, was a National Council Member for Ontario of the Conservative Party of Canada.

Mr. Chen was thrust into the spotlight when he was first to publicly call for -- and circulate a petition in favour of -- an early review of Erin O'Toole's leadership.

We'll discuss what his life has been like since having been suspended from the Council following his actions. And, we'll get his take on the upcoming CPC leadership Race.

We’ll take a look at how the COVID situation has evolved nationally since we've last chatted and, we'll touch upon key developments in the utter shitshow that has befallen our peace, order, and good government-loving country and nation's capital.

In this episode:

We’ll take a look at how the COVID situation has evolved nationally since we've last chatted.

Then we’ll have two discussions, the first about both the COVID and electoral fates of the Premiers of Canada‘s two most populous provinces,.

The second will be about the national uninvited guest who is demanding our attention while stating it has no intention of leaving.

Because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, this week we have two suggestions for you.

Agitators of the FreeDumb convoy stole food out of the mouths of the homeless, so please consider making a donation to The Shepherds of Good Hope in Ottawa, your local shelter, or to a food bank.

Heeeey, Kits!

We're back from the Holiday break with a jam-packed episode for you.

The Omicron surge has hit hard, and society is facing a major stress test, so we've for a you an overview of the landscape with updates on testing, hospitalization and death rates, back to school, congregate living settings, treatments, and government supports.

And, because things are a bit heavy, we'll lighten it up with our readers/listeners' feedback and the cool news.

Because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, this week we have two suggestions for you:

The post-Holiday season is typically difficult for Food Banks, so if you have the ability, this is a great time to make a donation. In addition to beans, rice, and canned goods, think of atypical things to include such as flour, brown sugar, powdered milk, diapers, infant formula, margarine, cooking oils, spices, sometimes even kitchen utensils such as can openers and spatulas come in quite handy.

Also, given the COVID crunch, organizations such as The Red Cross and Hema-Québec’s blood and platelet banks could very well be low, so if you’ve got the time and inclination, consider making some time to make a donation.

Finally, we want to know: What is your favourite hibernation activity?

You can do that via our show’s Facebook blog page on via Twitter @TrueEager.

Of course, retweets, shares, gentle corrections, constructive criticism, compliments, tips, requests and positive reviews (if you think we deserve some stars, please rate us) are always welcome.

(Recording date: December 23, 2021)

The Eager Beaver Pod asks its guests if they're willing to provide an extended interview, so that we may better get to know them/what makes them tick.

When they agree, we package it together and present to you as part of this series.

This week's guest is a well-known journalist and opinion leader who, for decades, via a combination of books, television vehicles, and regular columns in both mainstream and specialty publications -- not to mention decisions he made for himself while walking his own winding Spiritual path -- has been the source (sometimes despite himself) of both great controversy and deep introspection as to the role the Church plays in society.

In the spirit of the Season, in this Interview, the Reverend Michael Coren discusses his latest book, The Rebel Christ; the journey of change and the price one pays (or the cost extracted) when change following a life epiphany occurs; the healing power of forgiveness, and of course; as he's perfectly willing to take a stand, there's a little politics sprinkled in.

Mr. Grizzly and I hope this one makes your Holiday a touch brighter.

A merriest of Christmases to you and all of yours, if you are celebrating (or sharing in the joy of others), and if you are not, wishing many blessing for you and those you hold dear.

Be kind to, and gentle with, yourself,
Your Eager Beaver

(Recording Date: December 19, 2021)

After two weeks away, and the Parliamentary Christmas break coming, there's LOTS to share.

We start with a Coast to Coast to Coast COVID Update, with the latest research and policy news about the Omicron wave. You won't want to miss this part to be well informed.

Then we'll touch upon a real world application of Bill 21 in the province of Québec and the shift in federal leaders' positions on it, from before recent events to after, now that consequences are no longer hypothetical.

That will be followed by a review of some Parliamentary Housekeeping: bills introduced and passed, the fall economic statement, and the issuance of Ministers' mandate letters.

And, we'll finish it all up with the star atop our tree, our readers/listeners' feedback.

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, this week we invite our Kits to do the right neighbourly thing, and donate to the Canadian Red Cross 2021 British Columbia Floods & Extreme Weather Appeal between now and December 26th. For every dollar you donate, $3 will go to the Red Cross, thanks to matching by the Government of Canada and British Columbia.

Finally, we want to know: What do you wish most for the world, and for yourself, this Christmas/Holiday season?

You can do that via our show’s Facebook blog page on via Twitter @TrueEager.

So much content, this episode may be double-stuffed!

This week we look at various efforts at mopping up political messes along the way.

We start with a Coast to Coast to Coast COVID Update, as both Delta rises again and news about Omicron comes in fast and furious.

Then we'll touch upon a fresh start at the Green Party, muse about the real reason for fast Omicron-provoked border measures; give you backstory behind the fast tracking through the House of Commons of the bill to ban conversion therapy; take a critical look at Fiasco Tofino; and report of headway on the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal decision in favour of Indigenous children.

We'll then dedicate some time to the Speech from the Throne.

Of course, we'll have our listener/reader feedback and appreciation, and some cool news!

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, this week we invite our Kits to do the right neighbourly thing, and donate to the Canadian Red Cross 2021 British Columbia Floods & Extreme Weather Appeal between now and December 26th.

In this Interview Keith Boag, talks with us about healthcare in both Canada & the US, the current political situation in the USA and the possible long term effects thereof. We also discuss our current rocky relationship with China, and what could be done to improve it.

This week, we have no guest as there's been so much going on since the election, and this is a good time to catch up.

We have for you our Coast to Coast to Coast COVID Round Up, a quick run down of major headlines to hit since the election, an in depth-discussion about Erin O'Toole's Leadership Team and Shadow Cabinet announcement, and this week it's the return of "The Cool News!"

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, we invite our Kits to write in to tell us what is the earliest date at which you will start tolerating Christmas/Holiday music.

On today’s episode…

As an election is prime time for navel gazing, now that it is over, we thought that we’d dedicate an episode looking beyond our borders to see what is happening in global affairs as they pertain to Canada, its place in the world, and its leadership on the global stage.

We have for you the return of our Coast to Coast to Coast COVID Round Up, a quick discussion about the Conservatives’ repeated attempts to claim PM Justin Trudeau’s leadership is making our standing on the international stage drop, and a very special interview with one of Canada’s most distinguished and reputable foreign correspondents; a journalist who would definitely already be in the Canadian Journalism Hall of Fame, if we had such a thing.

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, we invite our Kits to write in to the show to let us know how you plan to mark Remembrance Day.

The Eager Beaver and Mr. Grizzly discuss where the parties stand post-election; the good, bad, and ugly of their election campaign strategies, and; where they may go from here..

This is the tenth installment of our new format for the elections, in which we try to bring you more frequent, much less scripted, but potentially shorter episodes we call “Beaver Bites”, so that we may bring you Election 44 coverage with fewer delays.

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, we invite our Kits to write in to the show to share with us what the election was like for you.

The Eager Beaver and Mr. Grizzly discuss interesting/trivia tidbits about the election results and about the Eager Beaver's first experience working at a polling place on election day.

Also, in this episode, we have a snippet of our extended interview with Conservative Party of Council Member Bert Chen, who was the first to publicly call for an expedited review of Erin O'Toole's leadership post-election.

Since our interview, Mr. Chen has been suspended/silenced for 60 days while a Committee "reviews" his behaviour.

This is the ninth installment of our new format for the elections, in which we try to bring you more frequent, much less scripted, but potentially shorter episodes -- yeah... that didn't quite work out... we're loquacious it seems... LOL -- we call “Beaver Bites”, so that we may bring you Election 44 coverage with fewer delays.

The Eager Beaver Pod asks its guests if they're willing to provide an extended interview, so that we may better get to know them/what makes them tick.

When they agree, we package it together and present to you as part of this series.

This week's guest made headlines by being among the first to call for a post-electoral review of Conservative Party of Canada Leader Erin O'Toole's leadership... and he put his money where his mouth is by openly circulating a petition to that effect.

In this interview, Bert Chen makes his case, we talk election strategy blunders, and because we here at the TNEB believe that "Democracy is something you do", we ask him about his path to becoming a National Council member.

Enjoy!

PS: Since our interview was recorded, Mr. Chen was slapped with a 60-day suspension while a Committee "reviews" his actions.

Our ongoing discussion about election 44.

Our on going discussion about election 44...

In this Episode we discuss the recent English Language debate.

In our ongoing discussion about election 44, we do a deep dive into some issues that we are passionate about, and raise concern on the direction of the nation.  

Our further ongoing discussion about the upcoming Federal election.

Off the cuff discussion about the current federal election.

(recording date, August 21st)

Six days into Canada’s 44th election, your intrepid duo of the Eager Beaver and Mr Grizzly share their general impressions of the election’s opening days.

This is the first in our new format for the elections, in which we try to bring you more frequent, much less scripted, but potentially shorter episodes we’ll call “Beaver Bites”, so that we may bring you Election 44 coverage with fewer delays.

Now, turns out that because we waited a few days, this episode turned out to be more of a “mouthful” than just a bite – we had a LOT to say (lol) – but hopefully we’ll be a tad more disciplined for future shows.

Also, because we believe that “Democracy Is Something You Do”, we invite our Kits to write in to the show to let us know what your election plan is to plan your vote, and what you’ll do to get more than just yourself to the polls.

We have for you a pre-election Coast to Coast to Coast COVID Round Up, a discussion on how the table had been prepared for this election call (including a Hello/Goodbye to those who cleared the decks or joined teams in preparation), and a discussion about the state of the major parties prior to the call that also touches upon a few things that took place in the opening days.

This will be our final “regular format” show for the next while as we hope to bring you more frequent, but potentially shorter episodes we’ll call “Beaver Bites” to bring you Election 44 coverage with fewer delays.

In this half of the episode, our Coast-to-Coast-to-Coast COVID update is back.

Our main story is the inexplicable and nonsensical decision of the Conservative Party of Canada to hold up legislation banning conversation therapy.

** We started recording on May 30, 2021 but technical difficulties delayed release until June 8.

In this special episode, the Eager Beaver and Mr Grizzly have an in-depth discussion about the the national mish mash of COVID-related lockdowns and how, Canadians, who are typically long to anger, have made quite well known their displeasure with their provincial governments’ handling of the pandemic.

The four biggest COVID outbreaks in the country are still in Manitoba, Alberta, Ontario, and Saskatchewan. 

Not-coincidentally, those four provinces happen to be led by ideologically Conservative politicians, which begs the question: “Are Conservative governments bad for our health?”

The Eager Beaver Pod asks its guests if they're willing to provide an extended interview, so that we may better get to know them/what makes them tick.  When they agree, we package it together and present to you as part of this series.  

This week's guest is community builder Amy Caruso, founder and CEO of The Mental Health Gala, being held in Ottawa, and online, Saturday, May 29th, 2021 (https://thementalhealthgala.com/). Join us as we speak about anxiety, depression, her passion for community service, and the growing movement to de-stigmatize talking openly about, and proactively seeking care for, mental health.

In this episode, the Eager Beaver and Mr. Grizzly present a cross-Canada COVID update; we’ll chat about all kinds of men behaving badly, following yet more recent sexual impropriety allegations in the Canadian Armed Forces;  and we’ll gloat about the Conservatives’ grift on Bill C-10 coming to a rather embarrassing end.

We will also have a deeper discussion about whether Conservative leadership is bad for our health.

In this episode, the Eager Beaver and Mr. Grizzly touch upon four current hot, sticky messes affecting the country: First, some News You Can use about the state of the COVID pandemic in Canada (and it’s not good); then we touch upon the evolving science from NACI on the AstraZeneca vaccine; that’s followed by a dive into the sexual impropriety scandal involving former CDS General Vance; and finally, we discuss ‘politicians behaving badly’ on Bill C-10.

Also in the show, the Beaver Lodge welcomes opinion writer and public intellectual David Moscrop, who recently got tongues wagging with his Doug Ford Must Resign opinion piece, recently published in The Washington Post. We touch upon whether were are Too Dumb for Democracy (he even wrote a book about it).

And we’ll finish the show with a shout out to our patrons, listener feedback, and a few bits of cool news about Canadians having done things about which we can all be proud.

Apologies for the delays and the now slightly dated info, but we hope you will enjoy it just the same.
