Canada’s government spans multiple layers. Federal, provincial, and municipal layers influence every aspect of daily life. For some, it’s become a “no longer home” scenario. Dr. Etienne Buchannan, a former university professor who lost his position during the COVID-19 madness, moved his family out of the country to seek safety and clarity. Now, he’s on a quest to assemble the “puzzle pieces” that explain what’s truly happening in Canada.

Main Talking Points

Life After Academia
Dr. Buchannan recounts being terminated for his stance on COVID-19 policies, sparking a chain reaction that led him to reassess his career and country.

Cracks in the Canadian System
Dr. Buchannan highlights how government interventions can corrode personal freedoms, pointing to “missing puzzle pieces” in Canada’s governance model, from health mandates to censorship of dissenting voices.

Decision to Leave
He explains why he felt compelled to uproot his family and how he navigated the bureaucratic maze to relocate abroad, describing both the emotional toll and the cultural shift of starting over.

Connecting the Dots
Drawing on personal anecdotes and data, Dr. Buchannan speculates on how federal, provincial, and municipal authorities might align to push uniform policies, sometimes overriding local concerns. He raises concerns about economic impacts, freedom of speech, and the future of democratic accountability.

Hope & Resilience
Despite the hardships, Dr. Buchannan maintains that collective awareness and civic engagement can guide Canada toward a more balanced approach, encouraging viewers to question and piece together truths for themselves.

Good morning (sniff sniff)

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.

Important Update.

Due to the need to vote on several bills in the Legislature today, this interview with Hon. Mickey Amery will need to be rescheduled.

I'll post a new date and time as soon as I receive one.

Thanks!

Thank you all!

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.
