Join TPL Media's Mike Wixson and Brian Isted as they sit down with Sam Cooper to discuss the current state of Canada.

Sam Cooper is a prominent Canadian investigative journalist, formerly with Global News and Postmedia, renowned for his exposés on the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) influence operations in Canada, particularly through alliances with triad-organized crime groups and extensive money laundering schemes.

His groundbreaking 2021 book, Wilful Blindness: How a Network of Narcos, Tycoons and CCP Agents Infiltrated the West, details the “Vancouver Model” of transnational crime, revealing how Chinese state actors, intelligence operatives, and tycoons linked to triads have exploited British Columbia’s casinos and real estate markets to launder billions in drug proceeds, including f***anyl, while infiltrating political and corporate networks to advance Beijing’s interests.

Cooper’s reporting, building on leaked intelligence like the 1990s Project Sidewinder, has spurred governmental inquiries such as the Cullen Commission, exposed alleged election interference and cash-for-access schemes involving Canadian officials, and drawn both acclaim from national security experts and backlash, including defamation suits from pro-Beijing figures, underscoring the risks of challenging these entrenched networks.

• Why Canada’s GDP fell 0.3% in October and which sectors collapsed

Canada’s public transit systems were built to move cities forward — but today, riders are opting out in record numbers. In this episode, we unpack why billions in funding haven’t translated into safety, reliability, or public trust. Host Mike Wixson sits down with Paul Micucci and Jeremy Grimaldi to examine falling ridership, rising crime, and the leadership failures crippling transit systems in Toronto, Vancouver, and beyond.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why TTC ridership is down 118 million riders from its peak

• How billions in annual subsidies still fail to deliver safe transit

• The growing link between crime, mental health, and transit use

• Why people now prioritize owning a car just to escape transit

• What cities like London and New York do differently — and why Canada won’t
