From his Swiss-lived upbringing to his outspoken stance on Kamloops residential schools, Jim McMurtry is no ordinary educator. Once a respected teacher, Jim claims he was fired for resisting what he calls the “woke” rewriting of Canadian history, a stand that’s thrust him into the crosshairs of cultural battles nationwide. In this episode of The Lavigne Show, we’ll dive into how Jim’s skepticism about the Kamloops graves story and his broader critiques of “woke narratives” have made him a pariah in certain circles and a freedom-of-speech hero in others.
What to Expect
The Road to Cancellation
Gain a firsthand account of how questioning official narratives about Indigenous graves led to Jim’s alleged dismissal and whether the system indeed tolerates dissenting voices.
The Kamloops Controversy
Hear why Jim believes claims of “soil anomalies” being confirmed graves lack forensic proof and how demanding evidence for widely reported stories can spark professional and social backlash.
Gender Ideology & School Indoctrination
Explore Jim’s critiques of gender education in Canadian classrooms, from the Amy Hamm case to mounting tensions over who decides what children learn.
The Bigger Cultural Battlefield
Understand why Jim sees these controversies as part of a broader drift away from rational debate and historical truth, leading him to champion personal integrity over political correctness.
Why You Should Watch
Unfiltered Education Critique
Hear from someone who claims to have lost his career over “too many questions.” Is that a cautionary tale for other educators?
Inside the “Woke vs. Truth” Debate
One teacher’s refusal to toe the line on contested narratives reveals deeper ideological rifts in Canadian society.
Empirical vs. Emotional
If you’re uneasy with how quickly specific stories become “untouchable truths,” Jim’s story may resonate or make you think twice.
Join us for a provocative discussion about academic freedom, media hype, and the cost of challenging orthodoxies. Whether you consider Jim a maverick or misguided, his story prompts us to ask: are we losing the ability to debate our history?

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.

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 ...
Throughout Canada’s modern era, one guiding truth has held constant for many citizens of faith: that our fundamental rights and freedoms originate from a higher authority—God—rather than mere privileges granted by government or courts. When the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms was introduced in 1982, the drafters inserted a crucial statement at the very outset:
“Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law: …”
According to former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford, the last living signatory to the Charter, this statement, followed by a colon, was deliberately designed to be read before each section of the Charter. It was not a ceremonial “preamble” but a constant framing principle, meant to remind legislators, judges, and citizens alike that the Charter’s rights have a transcendent source. The supremacy of God was intended to inform and contextualize all subsequent articles, rather than be relegated to symbolic status or ignored altogether.
