Roy Green Show Podcast October 13: The cost of food this Thanksgiving, a revolt in the Liberal Party, homeschooling and confronting the Prime Minister

The Roy Green Show

Today’s podcast:

On this 2024 Thanksgiving weekend, we ask, "What has most noticeably taken place concerning food (pricing or otherwise) since Thanksgiving of 2023, as well as what does our guest consider to be possible between Thanksgiving 2024 and Thanksgiving 2025?"

Also, there is the Canadian Food Sentiment Index for 2024, prepared by the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University, which shows how Canadians are navigating the current food landscape. 84.1% of Canadians who responded to Dalhousie's Food Sentiment Index identified fod as one of the expenses that has increased most in the past year.

Guest: Professor Sylvain Charlebois. Director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University.

Revolt in the federal Liberal Party caucus. Liberal MPs want Justin Trudeau to resign.

We speak with two former Liberal MPs about what it takes for a revolt against a sitting PM from inside the PM's party to spill over publicly.

Guests: Dan McTeague and Michelle Simson, Former Liberal MPs

Objectionable, violent, bullying and gang behavior in public schools in Canada. As well, questions are being raised by parents about children in grades 3, 4 and 5 being taught about suicide in their school classrooms.

Parents are increasingly turning to homeschooling for their children. In Alberta, homeschooling has a precise methodology for homeschooling which we will investigate.

Guests:

• Catherine Scott, a teacher with the Centre for Learning at Home to whom parents who homeschool have access for teaching-related questions.
• Karla Hersey. Mother to four children who chose to homeschool from the very beginning.
• Lindsay Wilson. Chose to homeschool after her children attended the public school system

We first learned about Kyle Mero as the United Steelworkers union member at Algoma Steel in Sault Ste Marie who when approached by Justin Trudeau challenged the PM and his policies, pointed out how much he pays in taxes and for dental care and told Trudeau he wouldn't be prime minister within a year. Liberals almost immediately claimed Kyle Mero was a Conservative Party plant whose job it was to embarrass Trudeau. Well, not so as we're about to find out.

Guest: Kyle Mero, Member of Local 2251, United Steel Workers, Algoma Steel in Sault Ste. Marie
