Neil Oliver is a Scottish archaeologist, historian, author, broadcaster, and presenter best known for his work on BBC history and archaeology programs, most notably as the long-time face of the series Coast, where he explored Britain’s coastline and its historical significance. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, Oliver has gained a new and highly polarised public profile through his outspoken commentary—initially on GB News and later on his own podcast and YouTube channel—where he expresses strongly libertarian, anti-lockdown, anti-establishment, and scepticism-of-mainstream-narrative views on topics ranging from pandemic policies and vaccines to climate change, net zero, digital IDs, and global institutions such as the WHO and WEF.Tickets to Cornerstone Forum 26’: https://www.showpass.com/cornerstone26/Tickets to the Mashspiel:https://www.showpass.com/mashspiel/Silver Gold Bull Links:Website: https://silvergoldbull.ca/Email: [email protected] Grahame: (587) 441-9100Bow Valley Credit UnionBitcoin: www.bowvalleycu.com/en/personal/investing-wealth/bitcoin-gatewayEmail: [email protected] Prophet River Links:Website: store.prophetriver.com/Email: [email protected] the code “SNP” on all ordersGet your voice heard: Text Shaun 587-217-8500

Mel K is a conservative journalist, filmmaker, and podcaster renowned for her in-depth, research-driven explorations of global corruption, hidden truths, and societal issues, drawing on her dual NYU degree in journalism and film along with over two decades in Hollywood crafting historical dramas for screen and television. Gaining prominence through her investigation into the mysterious disappearance of $800 million in New York taxpayer funds allocated for the homeless and mentally ill via the ThriveNYC program, she launched The Mel K Show in March 2020 amid the pandemic, evolving it into a daily live platform that attracts over 500,000 subscribers across multiple channels despite platform purges. Broadcasting seven nights a week from West Palm Beach, Florida, the nonpartisan show fosters open dialogue among critical thinkers, connecting dots from cases like Jeffrey Epstein to broader agendas such as Agenda 2030, while emphasizing intellectual honesty, personal empowerment, and the restoration of transparency in a free society—recently channeling these themes into her 2024 book Americans Anonymous, which calls for citizen-led action to reclaim power from entrenched elites.Tickets to Cornerstone Forum 26’: https://www.showpass.com/cornerstone26/Tickets to the Mashspiel:https://www.showpass.com/mashspiel/Silver Gold Bull Links:Website: https://silvergoldbull.ca/Email: [email protected] Grahame: (587) 441-9100Bow Valley Credit UnionBitcoin: www.bowvalleycu.com/en/personal/investing-wealth/bitcoin-gatewayEmail: [email protected] Prophet River Links:Website: store.prophetriver.com/Email: [email protected] the code “SNP” on all ordersGet your voice heard: Text Shaun 587-217-8500

Pelle Neroth Taylor is a Swedish-British journalist, filmmaker, and political writer based in Sweden, renowned for his investigative work on geopolitics, propaganda, political assassinations, and the rise of European populism. Educated at Westminster School and Bristol University, he began his career in the early 1990s reporting for The Economist from the post-communist Baltic States, later editing and contributing to outlets like The Guardian, The Independent on Sunday, The Times, Financial Times, Sunday Times, New Scientist, and The Lancet. As founder of Two Raven Films, he has produced documentaries such as Sweden, Dying to Be Multicultural, a critical examination of Sweden's immigration policies that has garnered over 2 million views on platforms like Amazon Prime and Blckbx TV, and Cancel Nation, addressing censorship and cancel culture. Kari Poutiainen is a Swedish physicist and one of Sweden’s most persistent independent investigators of the 1986 assassination of Prime Minister Olof Palme. Together with his brother Pertti, he wrote the influential 1995 book Inuti labyrinten (“Inside the Labyrinth”), a meticulous critique of the official police investigation that became a bestseller and a classic reference work in the Palme case. For over three decades Poutiainen has continued his research, publishing additional books and appearing in documentaries and interviews. In recent years he has strongly advocated the theory that the murder was carried out by or with the involvement of Sweden’s secret Cold War “Stay Behind” network, motivated by Palme’s independent foreign policy and his contacts with Mikhail Gorbachev.
