In this episode of Talk Truth, we welcome back author and political commentator Michael Wagner. He revisits key themes from his books, including Leaving God Behind, and shares a personal story about his high school t-shirt advocating for Western Canadian independence. Michael explores the origins of the movement, rooted in Pierre Trudeau’s 1980s National Energy Program, and connects it to Alberta’s current political landscape and Premier Danielle Smith’s push for greater autonomy. He also discusses the idea of Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state, Canadaâs anti-American roots, and introduces the reprint of The Christian Response to Canada’s Cultural Decline, chronicling Christian activism from 1969 to 2005.
