In our Canadian news update for Earth Day, we are talking about Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new environmental strategy that will infuse billions of dollars into protecting Canada’s natural environment through funding Indigenous Guardian programs, creating dozens of new national protected parks and areas, and more. But there are critics with valid points of concern, which we attempt to address in this episode.At the heart of Canada’s new Force of Nature strategy is something truly unprecedented in scale, and it’s not getting enough attention. These policies are not “values-driven”, abstract, idealistic promises—they are the building blocks of a paradigmatic shift seeking to restructure how Canada values our ecosystems and how Government culturally and politically relates to our land, water, and the people who have stewarded it for generations.Tune into Episode 433 of The Bill Kelly Podcast for daily politics news updates.This politics news update was recorded on April 22, 2026.WATCH THIS EPISODE and subscribe to our channel: https://youtu.be/M8H9A5MisSY?si=fND4xWQsyWfhjzm7Join Bill’s LIVESTREAM every Thursday at 6 pm ET/3 pm PT!

In breaking news this week, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney named an advisory committee on Canada-U.S. economic relations as CUSMA review nears, with a long list of Canadian heavy-hitters across sectors. PM Mark Carney and his lead on CUSMA negotiations, Minister Dominic Leblanc, say Canada is strongest when governments, workers, businesses and industry “all pull in the same direction”.Conservative Opposition leader Pierre Poilievre, shockingly, has stooped to a new childish low in his response to being left out of Carney’s elite economic committee.

Danielle Smith is at it again! We need to talk about Alberta’s explosive electoral boundary shake-up—and why many are calling it outright gerrymandering. Under Premier Danielle Smith, the process of redrawing of electoral boundaries has been manipulated to favor the UCP, raising serious concerns about the integrity of upcoming elections.We unpack how a supposedly independent system is being reshaped, why this matters far beyond Alberta, and what it signals about the future of democracy in Canada. If fair representation matters, this is a conversation Canadians can’t afford to ignore.Tune into Episode 429 of The Bill Kelly Podcast for daily politics news updates.This politics news update was recorded on April 19, 2026.WATCH THIS EPISODE and subscribe to our channel: https://youtu.be/_-oUFizff_4Join Bill’s LIVESTREAM every Thursday at 6 pm ET/3 pm PT!
