Talk Truth 08.24.26 - Dr. David Haskell | Dr. David Haskell, professor, researcher and author of Christ or Collapse: The Case Against Godless Government, examines what happened as Canada and the West moved away from their Christian foundations. Drawing on 20 years of research, he makes the case that Christian values aren't simply matters of faith—they produce measurable benefits for individuals and nations. From multiculturalism and moral relativism to libertarianism and the shrinking space for Christianity in public life, Haskell argues that restoring the principles that once shaped Canada may be essential to its future.<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">00:00</a> Psalm 24:1–2<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">00:56</a> Guest comes in: Dr. David Haskell<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">01:41</a> From liberal Christian to conservative Christian<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">04:02</a> The conference that inspired Christ or Collapse<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">06:19</a> Why Christians stopped speaking boldly about their faith<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">06:44</a> How Christianity disappeared from the public sphere<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">08:42</a> Christianity, libertarianism and moral absolutes<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">12:54</a> Rethinking the Crusades<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">14:19</a> Canada’s forgotten Christian foundations<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">15:40</a> Multiculturalism and moral relativism<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">17:00</a> Are all cultures and religions equal?<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">19:14</a> Can Canada recover what it lost?<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">21:06</a> Does Canada have only a decade to turn things around?<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">23:27</a> Traditional conservatism in action<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">24:45</a> Where to find Christ or Collapse<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">26:01</a> Allan and Corri’s closing thoughts<a href="https://rumble.com/v7eloe4-can-canada-survive-without-christianity.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp_a#" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(72, 110, 33);">27:05</a> Free resource and ways to support Talk Truth

Talk Truth 08.18.26 - Franco Terrazzano | Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, discusses the federal gas tax scheduled to return September 8 and new polling showing 71% of decided Canadians oppose the increase. From the hundreds of dollars families could pay each year at the pump to the ripple effect of higher diesel costs on groceries and everyday goods, Franco explains why the impact goes far beyond filling your tank. He also takes aim at Ottawa’s growing bureaucracy, years of MP pay raises, hundreds of millions in government bonuses, Canada Post paying nearly $31 million in bonuses after receiving a $1 billion bailout, and a federal government he says continues to borrow tens of billions while Canadians struggle with the cost of living. <a
