In this critical episode of The Lavigne Show, we explore the growing concerns over Central Bank Digital Currencies—from the IMF’s proposals about tracking personal data to China’s continuing push for a digital yuan. With developments in the UK and potential top-down agendas from the WEF (World Economic Forum), CBDCs have become more than a futuristic concept: They may soon reshape global finance and personal privacy in very tangible ways.
Featured Guests
Brett Oland (ICD.D, CPA, CA, BComm)
Serving as CEO of Bow Valley Credit Union, Brett brings a financial expert’s perspective on how digital currencies could impact local banks, credit unions, and everyday Canadians. He also sheds light on how a centralized digital system might alter or undermine traditional banking relationships.
Sharon Polsky
As president of the Privacy and Access Council of Canada, Sharon focuses on the privacy implications of adopting a government-controlled digital currency. Learn why she believes that advanced surveillance tech tied to personal spending directly threatens civil liberties.
Rob Anders
Former Member of Parliament (Calgary West, 1997-2015) and a founding member of the Conservative Party of Canada. A longtime critic of big government, Rob discusses how CBDC adoption intersects with broader questions about sovereignty, government overreach, and potential WEF-driven policy shifts.
What to Expect
Privacy & Control
Explore the chilling possibility of governments or financial institutions tracking online behaviour, credit ratings, or personal decisions—a concern highlighted by IMF researchers.

Folks,

We'll see you tomorrow.
Hi all,
Paula and I are taking a mid-week day off.
See you tomorrow with Frances Widdowson.
Stay warm, God bless.
Paula & Jay on the @TheLavigneShow are two of my favorite people. I am a supporter because I believe in their honesty, integrity & most of all their dedication to truth & the Alberta Independence Movement. I wrote a song about our quest for freedom, it is called My Alberta Home. You can find a demo of the song on my X page Michael Kosterman @MichaelKosterm2
We are headed into the studio later this spring to record a Radio Version of this song. Thank you Paula & Jay for all that you do. I will be coming to see you soon at one of your events! All my best & God Save Alberta!
