Bill C-240: Recovery from Addiction is Possible
July 29, 2026
Everyone deserves a path forward.
Recovery is possible, and every Canadian deserves the opportunity to break the cycle of addiction and build a better future.
That’s the goal behind Bill C-240. This bill would give judges the ability to include rehabilitative measures as part of a sentence, helping address the root causes of addiction, mental health challenges, and repeat offending while maintaining accountability.
Kelly DeRidder MP Kitchener Centre joins me on the Blueprint: Canada’s Conservative Podcast to share her powerful personal journey, the inspiration behind her private members bill in the House of Commons, and why rehabilitation can help transform lives and make our communities safer.

The Liberal Gun Confiscation Program: It’s Targeting the Wrong People
July 22, 2026
The $750 million gun confiscation program is targeting the wrong people.
While law-abiding, licensed firearms owners are targeted, most firearms used in violent crime are illegally smuggled across the border and used by repeat violent offenders.
After years of Liberal policies, violent gun crime has risen while mandatory jail time for serious gun offences has been weakened, catch-and-release bail has put repeat offenders back on the streets, and illegal firearms continue to flow into Canada.
Bob Zimmer joins me on the Blueprint: Canada’s Conservative Podcast to discuss why the gun confiscation program won’t improve public safety, what police officers are saying, and the common-sense approach we should take to reduce gun crime.

Canada’s Immigration System: Once the Gold Standard
July 14, 2026
Canada’s immigration system was once the gold standard under the Harper government. It was fair, secure, and built on enforcing the rules. After a decade of mismanagement, that reputation has been eroded.
The Auditor General uncovered more than 153,000 suspected cases of international student permit fraud, yet the Liberals still can’t explain how many of those individuals remain in Canada or received additional visas. Meanwhile, despite identifying Iranian regime operatives who should be deported, the government has removed only one.
Canadians deserve an immigration system that welcomes those who follow the rules, enforces our laws, and protects our national security.
Costas Menegakis joins me on the Blueprint: Canada’s Conservative Podcast to talk about how our immigration system lost its way, the growing concerns over fraud and national security, and what it will take to restore the integrity Canadians expect.

No Logs, Just Lies: The ArriveCan Audit
July 9, 2025
They just never learn.
The ArriveCan app was originally budgeted for $80,000 but cost Canadians at least $60 million dollars.
However, Canadians will never know the total cost because the Auditor General found such poor record keeping at CBSA.
This audit raises serious security concerns, finding that in half of the contracts there was no verification GC Strategies contractors had valid security clearances up-front.
Stephanie Kusie joins me on the Blueprint: Canada’s Conservative Podcast to share her thoughts on the matter, and much more.
