The United States imposed 50 percent tariffs on more than 550 categories of Canadian goods on Saturday, under Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930. Those tariffs apply even to goods that would otherwise qualify under the USMCA. Energy, potash and certain critical minerals were carved out.On Monday the President announced that tariffs on Canadian cars, trucks, automotive parts and steel will rise to 50 percent on January 1, 2027, double the current rate. Canada has said it will respond dollar for dollar beginning September 8. Ontario Premier Doug Ford has said everything is on the table, including electricity exports and critical minerals.This episode is not primarily about Donald Trump. It is about how a country sitting on oil, natural gas, uranium, potash, nickel, timber, hydroelectricity, critical minerals, farmland and fresh water ended up in a position where one announcement from Washington can put entire industries into crisis.Trump did not create that vulnerability. He found it.Let's connect!- - - - - - - - - - -Buy me a coffee! -Kelsi SherenDO NO HARM?

On May 1, 2026, the federal government introduced co-payments on the Interim Federal Health Program. Ninety days later, at 12:01 a.m. on July 31, five categories of benefit were moved from the Supplemental grid to the Basic grid, where co-payments do not apply. There was no vote, no debate, and no ministerial announcement I could locate. The change was delivered in a two-page bulletin from the program's insurance administrator to its registered providers.Let's connect!- - - - - - - - - - -Buy me a coffee! -Kelsi SherenDO NO HARM?

The WNBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement contains one sentence governing player eligibility:"Only players who are women are eligible to play in the WNBA."What it doesn't contain is a definition of the word "woman."Eight days before this episode was written, former NBA players Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White announced they intended to declare for the 2027 WNBA Draft, arguing they were applying the league's written rules exactly as they appear. The league's response has raised a much larger question: what happens when a rule depends on a definition that isn't actually written down?

A Canadian cleared to work inside NATO’s military headquarters is now in Belgian custody, accused of espionage.But this episode isn’t about deciding whether she’s guilty. That allegation remains unproven.It’s about what was already sitting in the public record before she ever got there.In 2023, the Public Service Commission of Canada found that Biwei Zhang had committed fraud during a federal hiring process after applying twice for the same CBSA position under two different names and email addresses. She challenged that finding in Federal Court. The court dismissed her application, leaving the finding in place.Roughly eleven months later, she began working inside SHAPE — NATO’s military headquarters in Belgium — after going through Canadian security screening.So the question is simple: **Did the screening process find the Federal Court decision?**If it did, who decided the documented finding of dishonesty wasn’t disqualifying?If it didn’t, how did a published Federal Court judgment get missed?In this episode, Kelsi breaks down what Belgian authorities have actually said, Zhang’s employment history, the previous fraud finding, Canada’s security-clearance process, the enormous volume of screenings handled by CSIS, and why the implications go far beyond one individual case.This is not an episode about treating Chinese-Canadians with suspicion. It is about whether Canada’s security-screening system is doing what Canadians — and our allies — assume it does.**CHAPTERS**0:00 The document that was public the whole time2:25 What Belgium actually said, and what it did not4:15 The resume5:45 The fraud finding7:15 Eleven months8:15 Two possible answers, and three agencies pointing at each other11:15 129,740 screenings in one year12:45 What a clearance used to mean13:45 The China question, carefully15:15 What this episode is not about16:45 What the real damage is18:45 The one question I want answeredBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenDo No Harm? - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1683585763?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_SC8YGT87SPJ1VB8SAYP1Let's connect!Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenRumble - https://rumble.com/user/TheKelsiSherenPerspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsisherenSUPPORT OUR PEOPLE - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://www.brassandunity.com

Ukraine has asked Canada to consider a C$650 million grant to help purchase natural gas for the coming winter. That request was discussed during a meeting between Ukraine's Energy Minister and Canada's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, according to Ukraine's government and Bloomberg. At the time this episode was written, there was no public confirmation from the Government of Canada that the request had been approved.But this episode isn't really about Ukraine.It's about priorities.While a proposed C$650 million grant is under discussion, Canada's entire Veteran Homelessness Program is funded at $79.1 million over five years. Food bank usage has reached record highs, and internal records cited in this episode suggest millions allocated for veteran homelessness went unspent. The question isn't whether Ukraine deserves support—it's whether Canadians deserve the same urgency when facing crises at home.In this episode, Kelsi examines:What was actually requested during the Canada–Ukraine energy meetingThe difference between a grant and a loanCanada's existing financial commitments to UkraineThe state of veteran homelessness in CanadaRecord food bank usage across the countryWhether Canada's spending priorities reflect the needs of CanadiansAs always, this conversation is grounded in publicly available reporting and government data. Where facts remain unconfirmed, they're presented as questions—not conclusions.If you found this episode valuable, please consider subscribing, sharing it with someone who cares about Canadian policy, and joining the discussion in the comments.Sources referenced include:BloombergGovernment of CanadaPrime Minister's OfficeFood Banks CanadaBlacklock's ReporterUkraine Ministry of EnergyUNNPublic statements by Denys Shmyhal0:00 Two numbers2:15 What Ukraine actually asked for4:00 Grant is not the same word as loan5:15 What Canada has already sent6:45 Two point two million food bank visits8:15 Eighteen hundred veterans, seventy-nine million dollars11:45 The three million we handed back13:45 The honest case for saying yes15:15 The question nobody has answered16:45 Where I land18:45 Two things you can doBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenDo No Harm? - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1683585763?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_SC8YGT87SPJ1VB8SAYP1Let's connect!Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenRumble - https://rumble.com/user/TheKelsiSherenPerspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsisherenSUPPORT OUR PEOPLE - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://www.brassandunity.com

On July 29, 2026, the Canadian Armed Forces quietly issued a new instruction governing what military chaplains may say during official ceremonies. There was no bill, no parliamentary debate, no committee hearing, and no vote—just a policy document posted to a government website. Four days later, it was already in effect.This episode examines what CAFMPI 03/26 actually says, what changed from the 2023 guidance it replaced, and why I believe the biggest story isn't what most people are arguing about online.I also explain where I think critics have overstated the policy. The instruction does not prohibit chaplains from praying at funerals, conducting religious services, providing private pastoral care, or wearing religious dress. Those claims don't survive a reading of the document, and I don't make them.Instead, I focus on a different question: how guidance became permanent policy, how its scope expanded beyond chaplains, and why I believe Canadians should pay attention when significant changes occur through administrative directives rather than public debate.I also examine one section almost no one is discussing—paragraphs 4.5 through 4.9—and ask why one set of traditions may remain within military ceremonies while another is moved outside them. Finally, I end with the one question I believe deserves a clear public answer before this Remembrance Day:**Does CAFMPI 03/26 apply to a military repatriation (ramp) ceremony?**If the Office of the Chaplain General responds to my written request, I'll publish that response in full, whether it supports my conclusions or not.Every source is linked below.**CHAPTERS**0:00 Nobody voted on this2:30 What changed since 20234:00 What the order says, including Remembrance Day5:30 Where the outrage gets it wrong7:00 How a right actually disappears8:15 Paragraph 4.911:45 The strongest case for the policy13:30 The ceremony that is not in the document14:00What rights are for14:30 The question I want answered before November 11Buy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenDo No Harm? - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1683585763?ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_SC8YGT87SPJ1VB8SAYP1Let's connect!Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenRumble - https://rumble.com/user/TheKelsiSherenPerspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsisherenSUPPORT OUR PEOPLE - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://www.brassandunity.com

In 2023, Edmonton Police expanded online reporting to include hate incidents—conduct that is not a crime—and allowed reports to be filed on behalf of someone else. In 2024, Crime Stoppers, EPS and the Government of Alberta launched buses displaying: "See hate. Report hate." In 2026, Parliament passed Bill C-9 with Liberal and Bloc support despite opposition from the Conservatives, NDP, Greens and more than 40 civil society organizations, including the CBA, CCLA, CLC and Egale.Britain adopted a similar system in 2014. Since then, police have recorded 133,000+ non-crime hate incidents. In 2023, 37 police forces made 12,183 arrests over electronic communications, with fewer than 1,119 convictions. In 2021, the Court of Appeal ruled the recording guidance had a chilling effect on free expression.**This episode examines that history, explains what Bill C-9 actually changed, corrects two claims circulating online that describe the bill as introduced rather than as passed, and explains why I believe these developments matter.

An 83-year-old Ontario woman told her family that MAiD conflicted with her Christian faith. She declined. Two months later, according to her family, the discussions restarted while her power of attorney was out of the country, her capacity was assessed in a meeting her family calls a farce, and her application was completed and witnessed by the facility’s own staff after the date had already been set.This is a reconstruction of the last ten days of Brigitte "GG" Stegemann, built from her family’s written public statement, an 80-minute recorded interview with her granddaughter and power of attorney, and the provisions of Canada’s Criminal Code governing medical assistance in dying.The family has formally requested the underlying records — the death certificate, both eligibility assessments, the signed request and the identity of its witness, the medication administration records, and any waiver of final consent. None had been produced at the time of publication. Requests for comment were made to the physician and to the nursing home; neither chose to respond. The practitioners are not named in this episode. They will be identified once records confirm their identities, and each will be given the opportunity to respond before that happens.Chapters:0:00 The date came before the paperwork1:15 Who GG was, and the twelve years before this3:40 She said no, and she said why4:30 Ten days away, and the meetings nobody mentioned6:10 The medication record that cannot explain Monday8:00 What happened in the room before the doctor arrived10:30 Tuesday: the capacity assessment13:30 How twelve years of power of attorney ended in minutes15:00 The application the manager says she filled out herself17:00 What Canadian law actually permits18:00 Wednesday: the question she asked her granddaughter19:40 Friday morning: the patio, the line, the silence22:20 Four questions, four pieces of paper25:00 What the family is doing nowLet's connect!Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenRumble - https://rumble.com/user/TheKelsiSherenPerspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsisherenSUPPORT OUR PEOPLE - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://www.brassandunity.com
