The Andrew Lawton Show

After yesterday’s raid on the United States Capitol left four dead, True North’s Andrew Lawton says the mob behind the breach must be condemned, as well as those who hypocritically pick and choose which riots are right or wrong based on political tribalism rather than consistency and intellectual honesty. Also, Canadian Taxpayers Federation Alberta director Franco Terrazzano joins the show to talk about why we should be able to recall politicians we don’t like in between elections.

The list of coronavirus hypocrites is growing as more and more politicians from all parties admit to travelling while telling the people they represent to stay at home. True North’s Andrew Lawton says the answer to this is not to throw the book at the politicians, but to start ripping pages out of the book, since clearly these supposed restrictions aren’t necessary. Also, cannabis activist Marc Emery joins the show to talk about his campaign to seek a People’s Party of Canada nomination for the upcoming election, and why fighting against what he calls the “COVID dictatorship” is among his top priorities.

In the last episode of The Andrew Lawton Show of 2020, True North's Andrew Lawton explains why the past year has become the year of the hypocrite in politics, with (former) Ontario finance minister Rod Phillips becoming the latest public official to think they are above the COVID-19 rules and guidelines the little people have to follow.

Canada's healthcare system is the proverbial third-rail of the country's politics. Yet despite no one wanting to touch the issue, there is a body of evidence supporting the idea that the system is broken, as evidenced by wait times, rationed care, and a lack of patient choice. Much of this is a product of politics, Dr. Shawn Whatley writes in his new book, "When Politics Comes Before Patients". Dr. Whatley joins True North's Andrew Lawton to explain what's wrong with the system – and how to fix it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Canadian government's policy of appeasing China has reached a new low, with secret documents showing the Trudeau government pushed back against military officials who wanted to stop training the Chinese People's Liberation Army at a Canadian base. When called on it, all the Trudeau government says is that it wants to repatriate Canadians Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor, who are being detained in China. True North's Andrew Lawton talks about this weak and ineffective approach to China, and also calls out the mainstream media's refusal to credit Rebel for breaking the story.

The Vancouver Canucks’ national anthem singer has been fired for performing at an anti-lockdown rally. His termination only serves to silence others who agree with him, making it seem as though the government and mainstream media’s narrative about lockdowns is a lot more widely believed than it actually is. Also, a professor was denied a Canadian Armed Forces position because he dared to criticize forced diversity programs, plus medical mask exemptions are legal, so why aren’t they being recognized?

Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister gave a melodramatic, award-worthy performance this week, choking up as he told Manitobans he’s the leader they need, and calling people who question his government’s lockdown measures “idiots” in the same breath as saying “we’re all in this together.” True North’s Andrew Lawton explains how that doesn’t seem to extend to the people being charged for working and worshipping. Also, how Justin Trudeau has bungled Canada’s COVID-19 vaccine procurement. Plus, SecondStreet.org president Colin Craig joins the show to talk about the 1,480 Canadians who died on health care waiting lists last year. Learn more about your ad choices.

A pastor, a politician and a restaurateur are among those charged for their protests against government lockdowns in the past week under the guise of public health, revealing the criminalization of everything and everyone who dares to stand up for their civil liberties.

In this edition of The Andrew Lawton Show, True North’s Andrew Lawton looks at a trio of liberties – media freedom, religious freedom, and COVID freedom. One drug manufacturer says its vaunted COVID-19 vaccine is “not a silver bullet,” perhaps justifying prolonged masks and restrictions even after it is available. Also, while Justin Trudeau’s government fights independent journalists in court, his foreign affairs minister says government shouldn’t decide who gets to be a journalist. Plus, Aylmer, Ontario pastor Henry Hildebrandt joins the show to talk about a request from public health bureaucrats that he shut his church down “voluntarily.” Learn more about your ad choices.

After a brazen daytime shooting in Toronto, Liberal ministers are, again, calling for more gun control, either wilfully or ignorantly oblivious to the fact that the guns used in inner-city crime are unaffected by the law. True North’s Andrew Lawton talks about the gun control advocates’ war on facts, plus a look at how the media and political left are not content to simply defeat Donald Trump in an election – they want to obliterate his ideas and anyone who ever worked for him from civil society.

Also, Justin Trudeau is teaming up with Botswana, a country that prosecutes journalists, to teach the world about press freedom, and the never-ending lockdown continues.

As French citizens get slaughtered by Islamist terrorists because of France's commitment to free speech, Justin Trudeau said free speech is actually constrained by "respect for others and to seek not to arbitrarily or unnecessarily injure those with whom we are sharing a society and a planet." True North's Andrew Lawton says this negates the very nature of free speech, which includes the right to offend. Also, Conservative candidate and former leadership contender Leslyn Lewis says that Canadian Conservatives need to stop opposing the United Nations' Paris climate agreement, prompting Andrew to say Conservatives need to actually stop trying to win Liberal votes on the environment.

Justin Trudeau has found a new way to keep the NDP on side: make everything a confidence motion, whether or not it actually is. With the NDP afraid of going to the polls and the Conservatives claiming it would be irresponsible to have an election during a pandemic, Trudeau appears to have cemented some longevity for his minority government, True North's Andrew Lawton says. Also, should airlines have to refund customers for cancelled flights, plus the Fraser Institute's Dr. Elmira Aliakbari on Canada's inefficient and ineffective carbon tax.

While the Liberals pretended their parliamentary prorogation was just to hit reset on their legislative agenda, it’s becoming increasingly clear that they have no interest in allowing opposition members to hold the government to account on the WE scandal, pandemic response, or anything else. True North’s Andrew Lawton talks about Justin Trudeau’s latest filibuster and cover-up. Also, with two weeks until the United States election, Republican strategist Dennis Lennox joins the show to talk about the midwest, the Electoral College, and fears of a post-election civil war of sorts.

Twitter's and Facebook's decision to block sharing of a New York Post story about Hunter Biden is an egregious act of censorship, but anyone surprised by it hasn't been paying attention. Even so, the solution to this form of intervention in online speech needs to come about in culture, not through regulation, True North's Andrew Lawton says. Also, accountant Neal Winokur joins the show to discuss his new book The Grumpy Accountant, a call for a simpler approach to filing and paying taxes in Canada. Learn more about your ad choices.

The World Health Organization has flip-flopped again, now telling governments they shouldn’t rely on lockdowns to curb the coronavirus. This comes as numerous studies suggest lockdowns simply don’t work. Though that isn’t stopping politicians from imposing them, even those like Justin Trudeau who promise “evidence-based” policy, True North’s Andrew Lawton says. Also, Canadian television stations are showing trigger warnings before reruns of Seinfeld and The Brady Bunch, contributing to more weaponized wokeness. Learn more about your ad choices.

The federal government is moving forward with a ban on single-use plastics next year, despite the importance of disposable packaging throughout the coronavirus pandemic, the second wave of which the same government says we’re experiencing right now.

Also, Yelp is fuelling cancel culture by maligning businesses who have been accused of racism by the media.

True North’s Andrew Lawton tries to make sense of it all.

The Trudeau government’s latest speech from the throne is all about big government, big spending, and big areas of overreach into provincial jurisdiction. Absent from the speech were any calls for national unity or a desire to tackle western alienation, or a commitment to stand up for freedom of speech and other fundamental freedoms. In fact, among the only Canadian values mentioned was being “welcoming” to newcomers. True North’s Andrew Lawton breaks down the speech from the throne and reactions to it from Canadian lawmakers. Also, actor Kevin Sorbo joins the show to preview his upcoming film Climate Hustle 2, a documentary exposing the global warming fear-mongers and profiteers. Learn more about your ad choices.

China’s foreign ministry is thrilled that Canadian health minister Politburo Patty Hajdu is still parroting Chinese talking points. Also, the Globe and Mail published two pages of advertorial content straight out of China Daily, a newspaper run by the PR department of the Chinese communist party. China is ramping up its influence measures in Canadian politics, government and media, making it all the more important for Canadian institutions to push back against them, True North’s Andrew Lawton says. Also, why Canadians need to care as much about our own Supreme Court as we do about America’s, and how the revolving door of the justice system claimed a couple of victims.

Statues keep coming down and businesses keep getting torched. Despite condemnation of vandalism from politicians, the mob is uninterested in discussion or a free exchange of ideas, making it paramount that people never give into it, True North’s Andrew Lawton says.

An angry mob has taken down a 125-year old statue of Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John A. Macdonald, in Montreal. This thuggish vandalism shows not only a disrespect for Macdonald’s role in Canada’s founding, but also an ignorance of history itself. As lawmakers and Canadians condemn the act, True North’s Andrew Lawton says it’s important for people to understand why Macdonald was not, as the mob says, a “problematic” figure in history, but rather a hero to be celebrated. Also, People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier joins the show to discuss Erin O’Toole’s Conservative leadership win, and the future of the PPC. Learn more about your ad choices.
