from Connect Newsroom · host Connect Media Network

In this compelling episode, Host Vijay Saini and Co-host Vasu Kumar unpack two major developments shaping public debate across Canada. First, they break down the implications of the recently approved Surrey Police budget — what it means for taxpayers, public safety, and the ongoing transition from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police to the Surrey Police Service. The conversation then shifts to a controversial national issue: Is Canada increasingly relying on immigration hearings as an alternative form of law enforcement? The hosts examine concerns around due process, public safety, and policy direction under the Government of Canada. With sharp analysis and direct commentary, this episode explores the intersection of policing, immigration policy, and governance — issues that impact communities locally and nationally. Listen now for an in-depth discussion on accountability, security, and the future of law enforcement in Canada.
