Hi all,
So sorry to say, but just for today, we have a sick Jay.
The cold started Wednesday, and on the drive yesterday, it got worse.
As a result, no Tea & Coffee this morning.
I'll recover and we'll see you Monday.
God bless.

Pickering Councillor Lisa Robinson joins Jason Lavigne for a frank discussion about municipal overreach in Ontario and why Albertans should care. From “strong-mayor” powers and integrity-commissioner sanctions to media narratives and election integrity, Robinson lays out how local governance can drift away from democratic accountability, and what Alberta can do differently as it debates self-determination.

- Integrity commissioners, year-long pay sanctions, and the chilling effect on dissent
- Media pressure vs. balanced reporting
- Electronic vs. paper ballots, voter ID, and safeguarding elections
- Border security, provincial jurisdiction, and the stakes of an Alberta referendum

Hi supporters,
It has been a long campaign and evening. Sadly, it appears that Team Lavigne won't be elected this time around.
We thank everyone who took the time to support us and got out to vote.
For the rest of the week, we are going to recharge, regroup, and get back to several projects that took a backseat to the campaign.
We'll be back next week ready to bring you even more shows, interviews, and truth.
Much love, God bless.

Enjoy the Conversation on Alberta Independence with Jeffrey Rath & Chris Scott — From the Live event in Drayton Valley!
Whistle Stop Cafe's Chris Scott and Alberta lawyer Jeffrey Rath, whose fiery new piece “ALBERTA WANTS OUT! An Open Letter to Danielle Smith” is sparking province-wide debate, were on stage for an uncensored, audience-driven discussion about whether Alberta should chart its course.
What’s in the Letter & Why It Matters
Leadership at a Crossroads: Rath says Premier Smith must remove Kenney-era ministers implicated in pandemic misfeasance or risk losing Albertans’ trust.
COVID Accountability Gap: There has been no public inquiry, no retroactive help for shuttered businesses, and no action on vaccine injury concerns.
“Team Alberta,” Not “Team Canada”: He slams Ottawa’s 25 % retaliatory tariffs and Smith’s support for making everything from trucks to tomatoes pricier in Alberta.
20 Reasons to Go It Alone: From axing federal taxes and ...
