Season 1
Episode 57
Published 6 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
This week on the Builder By Day podcast, Ryan and Aimee dive into a big question: what would it take to create a grassroots movement in Nova Scotia built on common sense values?
Inspired by Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA, they explore the gap between everyday working-class values and today’s political parties, comparing conservative vs. liberal principles, and questioning whether anyone is really standing up for the middle class anymore.
In this episode, they discuss:
• Why common sense feels absent in Canadian politics
• Conservative vs. Liberal values — and where they clash
• The struggles of the working and middle class today
• Issues of immigration, jobs, and cultural identity
• The role of family, faith, and responsibility in society
• How to actually start a movement — nonprofit vs. political party
Whether you agree or disagree, this is a raw, thought-provoking discussion about where society is headed — and what it would take to organize for change.
