God, Country, and Responsibility: A Conversation on Masculinity and Political Reform
In this episode of The Lavigne Show, host Jason Lavigne travels to Montreal to speak with Nico Lagan — entrepreneur, masculinity advocate, and host of The Political Orphans. The discussion explores Alberta’s push for self-determination through the lens of faith, traditional values, political decentralization, and the crisis of modern manhood.
Nico shares his perspective on what’s fueling political unrest across Canada and why Alberta might be uniquely positioned to lead a cultural and constitutional shift. This wide-ranging conversation explores the importance of taking personal responsibility, the role of faith in public life, and the disillusionment many men feel with today’s globalist, centralized political structure.
While Nico doesn’t take a definitive stance on Alberta’s independence, he makes a robust case for civic awakening, family values, and a return to God and country — all rooted in the belief that strong individuals build strong provinces, and strong provinces, in turn, make strong nations.
This episode is part of a nationwide series that explores Alberta’s future through honest and open conversations with Canadians from coast to coast.

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!
