Today’s podcast:

Several topics to discuss with General Hillier:

  • Nova Scotia elementary school principal sends out a notice to Canadian military veterans planning to attend Remembrance Day ceremonies at the school to not wear their uniforms to maintain a welcoming environment for all, including students from parts of the world where they've been exposed to war. A disgraceful disrespect for Canadian military veterans, "Lest we Forget!" 

  • Donald Trump's election impact on the Russia/Ukraine war.

  • Canada/U.S. relations with the Trump administration. 

  • Trump demands that Canada live up to its NATO obligation of 2% of GDP to be spent on the CAF.

  • Amsterdam antisemitic attacks and Israel fighting in an era of Donald Trump as president.

**Guest: **General Rick Hillier. Former Chief of the Canadian Defence Staff. 

A former president of the Liberal Party of Canada, in a Toronto Sun op-ed, is challenging "so many columnists and journalists (in Canada) and those nonsensical political science academics who are blowing a gasket at Donald Trump's election victory that one would think we are about to be overtaken by the Huns and Visigoths." Op-ed: Picking Apart the Dire Observations of Trump's Election Victory.

Guest: Stephen LeDrew. Past president, of the Liberal Party of Canada

Brutal attacks on Jews in the streets of Amsterdam by roaming antisemitic mobs as Israeli fans of the soccer club Maccabi Tel Aviv, who were in the Netherlands to play the Dutch team Ajax in the UEFA Europa League.

**Guest: **Vivian Bercovici. Former Canadian Ambassador to Israel.

All roads lead to Taylor Swift's concerts in Toronto and Vancouver. 'Swifties' still desperately trying to score tickets to attend at the Rogers Centre on November 14-16, 21-23 and at B.C. Place December 6-8. 

What's Taylor Swift's massive appeal? On par with, or even more so than forerunners like the Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, etc?

**Guest: **Eric Alper. Canada's leading freelance music publicist. A 16-time JUNO Award winner overseeing PR campaigns. 6-time nominee for Publicist of the Year during Canadian Music Week
