In this episode, Marty Belanger, widely known as "Martyupnorth," joins the conversation. His viral #TrudeauMustGo post ignited a nationwide discussion, but Marty is far more than an online voice. A hardworking, self-made Canadian who retired early thanks to his hard work and success, Marty would much rather be hiking in the woods. Yet, seeing the government overstep its bounds compelled him to speak out. His focus on financial accountability and straight-shooting commentary resonates with Canadians looking for leadership and solutions.

We dive into the importance of honesty, leadership, and open-mindedness in tackling Canada’s biggest challenges. From the healthcare system to immigration, we explore what defines effective leadership and the role of critical thinking in creating meaningful change. We also confront the challenges of online criticism and discuss how to engage in constructive dialogue while holding political leaders accountable for their actions.

Marty acknowledged that younger generations often seem disengaged from politics and the decisions shaping their future. We discuss why this might be and explore how we can encourage youth to get more involved and take ownership of Canada’s direction.

What do you think? How can we inspire youth to get involved and take ownership of Canada’s direction? Share your ideas—we need fresh perspectives to make this happen.
