MAGA Florida Sucks - Come to Newfoundland & Labrador02 Sep 202500:13:20

Meidas Canada is bringing you on the road with us to the beautiful province of Newfoundland. It's part of building the global boycott against MAGA. Canadian resistance has hammered Ron DeSantis' Florida especially hard. But we encourage you to take it further. Don't spend a dime in a state that brags about setting up concentration camps and targeting the LGBTQ community. Meidas Canada host Charlie Angus has a better solution: we invite you to come from away to beautiful Newfoundland, a place where they welcome you and don't put people in cages.

Grandmothers Against Genocide07 Sep 202500:18:04

Gaza is being destroyed brick by brick. There is appalling silence from Western leaders over the deliberate starvation of the families and children. Grandmothers Against Genocide is a powerful grassroots movement of resistance, teaching us lessons in how to kick at the darkness. Charlie Angus, the host of Meidas Canada, recently attended a vigil in Toronto where Grandmothers gather at Bay and Bloor every Wednesday at 8 am. Vigils are now taking place across the country.

The Coming MAGA Hate Storm06 Sep 202500:09:20

Canada is about to be rocked by the rage storm coming in the form of MAGA MAPLE leader Pierre Poilievre, stoking fears of immigration. He is using the temporary foreign worker program as the Trojan horse to drive the rage machine. This is all about the extremist dog whistles. This is the far right playbook in action. Anti-immigrant disinformation has been used across Europe and in the United States. Once MAPLE MAGA and the MAGA ALBERTA separatist gang begin to stoke divisions, that's when Trump will ramp up the pressure on our nation. The storm is coming, and we need to be prepared. We can get through this if we hold the line. Thanks to Moe's Latté in Charlottetown for allowing me to film at his beautiful shop.

Maple MAGA's Handmaid's Tale and Anti Vaxx Rage05 Sep 202500:16:10

Albertans stood up this week against Danielle Smith's book-banning scheme. But don't get fooled by Smith's backtracking. This isn't just another dumb MAGA-Alberta blunder.


The fascist playbook is about attacking knowledge, attacking science and undermining women's rights. On this episode, we explore the connections between Danielle Smith and MAGA's most dangerous guru - RFK Jr. We're examining the connection between banning books and the war on vaccine science.

MAGA is Kidnapping Canadians10 Sep 202500:19:06

Over 150 Canadians, including children, have been kidnapped off the streets by ICE. In Trump's first six months, he has moved from kidnapping people to setting up cages as concentration camps. Meidas Canada calls out the attack on the rule of law and the establishment of American concentration camps. We need to speak up for all those being held without trial or access to legal representation and their families.

MAGA Won't Break Up Our Country - We're Treaty People30 Sep 202500:19:54

A small minority of MAPLE MAGA are trying to break up Canada.

Why We Resist - Lessons from Canada's Birthplace27 Sep 202500:21:23

Canada was born as the United States was tearing itself apart in a horrific civil war. Isolated regions came together despite deep divisions to build a nation rooted in compromise so that we wouldn't fall into the violence of the United States. Today, we must renew our commitment to this project known as Canada in the face of a new civil war. That is why the Meidas Canada Network launched our national tour in the birthplace of Confederation.
