In this gripping and emotional episode of The Lavigne Show, Jason Lavigne sits down with James and Sandra Bauder to discuss James’s extraordinary and heartbreaking decision to seek political asylum in the United States.
James Bauder, the founder of Canada Unity and a voice behind the Freedom Convoy 2022, has become one of Canada's most high-profile political prisoners-in-exile. Facing up to 15 years in prison for peaceful protest, James is now fighting for his life, liberty, and the right to speak freely — this time from American soil.
James breaks his silence on:
-
His role in organizing the historic Freedom Convoy.
-
The charges laid against him, including "counselling to commit an uncommitted indictable offence" — a rarely used provision.
-
Why the Canadian justice system has failed him and others like Pat King, Tamara Lich, Chris Barber, Pastor Artur Pawlowski, and so many more.
-
How he’s turned to the United States for protection from what he calls "political prosecution."
-
The unprecedented step of filing for asylum in the United States — and the $30,000 legal battle he now faces.
Sandra shares the emotional toll this journey has taken on their family, their faith, and their future and why they believe the world must now pay attention to the political persecution taking place in Canada.
This is not just James’s story, it is a warning to every Canadian and American who values freedom of speech, peaceful protest, and the right to dissent.

Preston Manning’s recent warning that a Mark Carney Liberal victory would “spark Western secession” strikes a chord in Alberta, where many feel that federal policies have sidelined resource-based interests for far too long. His statement, “a vote for the Carney Liberals is a vote for Western secession – a vote for the breakup of Canada as we know it”, reflects growing Western frustration.
Unsurprisingly, the Uniparty closed ranks in response. Mark Carney framed Manning’s concerns as “unhelpful,” insisting that “this is a time when we need to come together as a country.” More startling, however, is Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, whose party traces its roots back to Manning’s Reform, echoing Carney’s sentiment. Poilievre declared in response to Manning, “No, we need to unite the country … We need to bring all Canadians together in a spirit of common ground.”
By siding with Carney over Manning, Poilievre has once again turned his back on Alberta, conservatives, and the ...
Greg Arcade has provided an update on his battle with brain cancer. His strength is admirable and his fight will continue.
Psalm 150 - King James Version
Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.
If you can, please support Greg.

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.
Over time, ...
