The DrewXperience

In this DrewXperience conversation, Sheyyview and Drew break down the state of Canada, the case for conservatism, and why Iran advocacy matters now. Unfiltered discussion on freedom, values, and Canada’s future.

Georganne Burke, longtime Conservative Party of Canada operative under Stephen Harper, joins to discuss the state of conservatism in Canada, the post-October 7 surge in antisemitism, and IRGC influence inside the country.She worked as Harper’s Toronto organizer before he became prime minister and later ran cultural outreach in Ottawa. She knows what a government that treated Israel as an ally and the IRGC as a real threat looked like. After October 7, that standard collapsed. Antisemitism in Canada rose sharply, Jewish Canadians (including members of her own family) began leaving, and IRGC networks continued operating while political leaders treated both as someone else’s problem.Burke doesn’t soften the record or play both-sides. She connects the failure of post-Harper conservatism on antisemitism directly to why the Islamic Republic still sees Canada as soft terrain and what a serious conservative response would require.
