Twenty-five years after 9/11, Nigel Hannaford asks what Canada gave up in the name of security. From surveillance and expanded state powers to the Emergencies Act and frozen bank accounts, he looks at how temporary measures became part of everyday government.

Marty looks back 25 years after 9/11 and reflects on how the attacks changed the world and a generation. He also weighs in on Mark Carney, the worsening Canada-U.S. trade fight, Alberta politics, the Dean Allison inquiry and the federal Conservatives’ push for a united Canada.

Derek Fildebrandt, Cory Morgan, Nigel Hannaford and Dave Naylor discuss Pierre Poilievre’s push against Alberta independence, the Oct. 19 referendum and the risk of alienating Western conservatives. They also examine Mark Carney, Donald Trump, the Canada-U.S. trade war and Germany’s rising AfD.

Derek Fildebrandt speaks with Canadian veteran Wayne “Dirty P” Hallet and British fighter Kieran “Monkey” von Breen about their experiences fighting in Ukraine.

They recount why they volunteered, how drone warfare has transformed the battlefield, and what it is like to be hunted by Russian FPV drones and mortar fire. Wayne also reveals how he deliberately lured Russian drones into traps to capture them and gather intelligence for Ukrainian forces.

Attempts by activists to derail energy investment in Canada undermine an industry capable of delivering major economic and environmental benefits, says Shannon Joseph, chair of Energy for a Secure Future.

Joseph makes her comments tonight on Hannaford, arguing that campaigns attempting (for example) to portray liquefied natural gas projects as health hazards can obscure the tangible benefits energy development has delivered to communities.

This is particularly so of indigenous communities in northern British Columbia.

Prime Minister Mark Carney is telling the Trump administration to “stop doing memes, stop throwing shade and stop trying to be tough” as tensions between Canada and the United States escalate. Carney says trade talks can resume when Washington gets serious about negotiating a deal that respects Canadian sovereignty and protects key Canadian industries.

The comments come after Canada-U.S. trade negotiations broke down, followed by new tariffs and a wave of provocative social media posts from President Donald Trump and other U.S. officials.

Derek Fildebrandt, Cory Morgan, Nigel Hannaford, Dave Naylor and Alex Zoltan break down Trump’s latest troll of Canada, Mark Carney’s rise during the trade fight, and the growing pressure on Pierre Poilievre after a rough round of byelections.

The panel also digs into the total meltdown of the B.C. Conservatives, Kerry-Lynne Findlay’s leadership crisis, caucus defections, internal party chaos, and whether the right in B.C. is blowing its chance to defeat the NDP.

“I honestly believe if Mr. Harper were prime minister, we would have had a deal a long time ago.” Thus Yaroslav Baran, speaking on tonight’s Hannaford show.

A Harper-style approach would have treated the relationship as serious business requiring serious management. Instead, we have drifted into a cycle of provocation, retaliation, and political opportunity. The deal is not done because the people responsible for delivering it have been more interested in managing the narrative than closing the file.
