Global Affairs Canada allocates billions in taxpayer dollars to international projects—presumably for vital humanitarian aid. Yet revelations about USAID via Elon Musk’s DOGE have sparked fresh scrutiny: Are Canadians funding legitimate relief efforts or bankrolling ideological pursuits? Join us for an in-depth conversation with two reporters who have an eye on Global Affairs and its allegedly “woke” spending.
Featured Guests
Cosmin Dzsurdzsa @cosminDZS
An immigrant independent journalist who exposes globalist agendas and defends Canadian cultural sovereignty. Known for unveiling questionable foreign aid partnerships—like Global Affairs funnelling millions into progressive projects—Cosmin breaks down how “soft” programs might be advancing Liberal Party interests abroad.
David Krayden @DavidKrayden
A Canadian columnist with Air Force and parliamentary experience, David leverages his background to challenge Trudeau’s policies and highlight conservative values. Having criticized Mark Carney’s carbon tax and flagged possible authoritarian overreach, David joins us as we spotlight Global Affairs—discussing that many Canadians remain unaware of how and why billions are spent globally.

Comparisons to USAID

Where Does Your Money Go?
Cosmin and David examine claims that these billions do little to advance Canada’s actual interests or true humanitarian goals—and might be fueling a global propaganda machine.

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.
Strong-Mayor Powers, Media Pressure, and What Ontario Should Learn from Alberta
Wednesday, August 13 at 7 PM MT / 9 PM ET
YouTube · Rumble · X · Facebook · TheLavigneShow.com
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.
In this episode:
- What “strong-mayor” powers mean on the ground—and why they matter to Alberta
- 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
- How an Alberta ...
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.
