#61 Alexander Brown: Young Voters, Culture, and Politics in Canada
Young conservatives aren't falling in line. Alex says, "We don't care. I'm not incentivized to look the other way. I don't need an invite to a table of six at Terroni in the back room to talk about continuing the status quo." In a world when young voters can't afford a house in Canada, you'd think they'd obsess about economics. They don't. They care as much about culture as being able to afford a home. Alexander Brown works at the front of this young conservative uprising. Enjoy! Links: Without Diminishment National Citizens' Coalition Against Andrew Coyne-ism JunoNews AI Summary  In this episode, host Shawn Whatley is joined by Alexander Brown, a prolific writer, journalist, managing editor, and co-founder of Without Diminishment. Alexander also serves as the director of the National Citizens Coalition and hosts a show on Juno News. The conversation delves deep into the frustrations of young voters in Canada, particularly focusing on cultural and economic challenges. They discuss the conservative party's hesitancy to engage in cultural debates and the significance of platforms like Without Diminishment that aim to bridge this gap. Highlighting the growing discontent among young Canadians over issues like home ownership and social cohesion, Alexander and Shawn explore the potential for a rejuvenated conservative movement that does not shy away from cultural conversations. The episode also touches upon the platform's innovative and sometimes controversial content, the importance of addressing young people's concerns, and the broader implications of ignoring cultural issues in Canada's political discourse. 00:00 Introduction: Frustrations of Young Canadian Voters 00:07 The Struggles of the Middle Class 00:26 The Importance of Common Sense and Normalcy 01:34 Introduction to the Guest: Alexander Brown 02:08 Cultural Discussions in Conservative Politics 03:23 The Role of Without Diminishment 04:01 Challenges and Criticisms 05:27 The Need for Cultural Conversations 13:44 The Role of Economics in Politics 26:15 Project Ontario and Conservative Thought 28:31 Net Migration and Healthcare Challenges 28:57 Conservative Campaign Reflections 30:09 Economic Policies and Critiques 32:03 Leadership and Conservative Values 39:17 Mike Harris's Legacy 42:44 National Citizens Coalition 53:10 Challenges for Young People 56:47 Final Thoughts and Reflections
