8:30 – We have just eight months left until Canada’s next federal election. With the SNC-Lavalin scandal starting to hurt Justin Trudeau’s popularity in the polls, we thought it was time for one of Gormley’s patented Reality Checks: Will Justin Trudeau be re-elected in October? We want your prediction, not your preference. Give us a call at 1-877-332-8255.

REALITY CHECK: Will Trudeau be re-elected?

9:00 – Bug’s Day: The HOUR OF RAGE!

10:00 – What’s the first news story you remember being aware of? For many Millennials it would be 9/11 or the death of Princess Diana, but older generations might remember the Kennedy assassination, the moon landing, or something else entirely. We know we’ve got a lot of news junkies in our audience, so give us a call and let us know about the first news stories you can recall.

11:00 – The 2019 convention of the Saskatchewan Home Based Educators will be held in Saskatoon Feb. 22 and 23, and their keynote speaker is Dr. Brian Ray, the head of the National Home Education Research Institute. A renowned researcher and former classroom teacher, Dr. Ray joins John now to talk about the latest theories and trends in homeschooling. Would you consider homeschooling for your children? Do you think homeschooling gives kids an advantage later in life? Give us a call and have your say!

LIVE: Dr. Brian Ray, founder and president of the National Home Education Research Institute.

12:00 – The United We Roll convoy has wrapped up after two days of protest on Parliament Hill. The convoy was a magnet for controversy, but the protests were peaceful despite the presence of counter-protesters and condemnation from a number of pundits and an “anti-hate” group. Saskatchewan convoy organizer Jay Riedel joins the show to discuss the convoy’s time on the Hill and whether he feels their pro-resource message was heard by the Trudeau government.

LIVE: Jay Riedel, Saskatchewan convoy organizer.
