369: Canada’s Identity Crisis And Why Families Are Looking South – Shaun Newman

Over the past decade, Canada has rapidly slid from a respected nation to one that many people now see as a cautionary tale of the logical end of extreme progressivism taking over a political system. Meanwhile, things here in Latin America are moving in the opposite direction, as the region continues to shift towards embracing more pro-freedom and pro-business policies.  I sat down for a conversation with my friend Shaun Newman to discuss the current state of Canada and how it contrasts with what I’ve been seeing on the ground here in Latin America. We dive into the various factors contributing to Canada’s decline, and contrast them with the massive pro-freedom changes currently happening in much of Latin America.  Enjoy!   IN TODAY’S EPISODE: Listen in as Shaun and I skewer Canada’s environmental policies and green agenda, from bird-slaughtering wind farms to fines for walking in the woods Tune in as we lament on how we both used to feel pride while travelling the world as Canadians… but today, we’re embarrassed to admit where we’re from. Shaun and I unpack how Air Canada strikes and broken infrastructure reveal the deeper rot inside the Canadian system Hear how birth tourism, multiple passports, and raising a large, values-driven family form the backbone of my offshore Plan-B   WHERE TO FIND SHAUN NEWMAN: Check out the Shaun Newman Podcast  Follow Shaun Newman On X   STAY IN TOUCH!
