Maple Drenched Musings

In this special unscripted from-the-heart episode, I aspire to lower the temperature in Canada and abroad to draw people back to the undeniable value of all sentient life and the pursuit of true "peace" through non-violence.
There's no "two sides" to the value of life, and I try my best to secularly explain this concept.
In this follow-up to Part 1, I will cover legitimate psychology-driven techniques to help heal the divisiveness in Canada and the world that has been constructed by disinformation and echo chambers.
Avoidance is not the solution and will simply make things worse.
Learn how to talk about the person with differing views in your life, just in time to make those family gatherings more productive and healthy.

Ever wonder how a vaccine gets from an idea into a syringe that's offered to you in Canada? Many steps, a lot of science, a lot of oversight, and no conspiracies. You should be much more afraid of taking a shower than getting a vaccine shot in Canada.
Canadians and people who visit and work in Canada get a SIN, and the biggest sin is not being careful with it and knowing when to give and not to give that number.

This episode probably isn't going to take the direction you think. Words have meaning.
In this episode I talk about three ships and how they shaped and continue to shape immigration, refugee, and asylum policy in Canada.
Canadians take for granted that we enjoy robust rights and freedoms. How exactly did we get here and how are politicians circumventing these rights and freedoms to pass controversial laws?
In this premiere episode we’re going to take an unscripted look at a well known Canadian who was once known as “Jeff” and the disconnect between his political beliefs and behaviours and the level of success he’s achieved in a country he is unrelentingly critical of.
