Show Notes
Roman Baber is a former Member of Ontario's Provincial Parliament. He is running for Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada because he will not "sit back while Canadians are losing faith in Canada's democracy and Canadian opportunity." He was removed by Doug Ford from the Ontario government caucus after calling out the collateral harm of lockdowns in January 2021. Since then, Roman has been a staunch advocate in favour of a balanced covid response and in particular against lockdowns due to their toll on the health and mental health of Canadians. Roman brought legislation to cut MPP pay to CERB levels while Emergency Orders are in place, commenced and is in litigation against the Attorney General of Ontario over Canadians' right to protest and worship outdoors, and recently brought a Bill to outlaw workplace mandates. Roman is passionate about and is well familiar with justice, transit and autism policy.
Roman was born and lived in the former Soviet Union until he was almost 9. He then lived in Israel until he immigrated to Canada with his family at age 15 and settled in the heart of the North Toronto district he now represents. Roman obtained a BA from York University and graduated from law school at the University of Western Ontario. During his last year of law school, Roman was a supervisor with the school's legal aid-funded clinic. Roman was called to the Ontario Bar in 2006 and practiced civil and commercial litigation until his election in 2018. He served as Chair of the Ontario Provincial Parliament’s Standing Committee on Justice Policy from September 2019 until January 2021.
Roman is an occasional lecturer at an after-school program, engaging high school students on constitutional and criminal law topics. He loves Canadian kindness, the Toronto Raptors, and his special someone, Nancy Marchese.

Today I am speaking with 3 of the authors in the New Collaborative Book - Sovereign, that is now available to order on Amazon. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0BH13XBXM In this episode, each author shares a little bit of the story they wrote in the book, and what the term Sovereign truly means to them. Meaghan Penney is a mom, wife, entrepreneur and proud member of the “Fringe Minority” here in Canada. She built a 5 figure business in 6 months, while pregnant, after she was deemed “non-essential” in 2020. She faces every hurdle in her life head on and with the idea that everything is happening for us not to us. She has worked hard these past two years to detach herself & her family from the system all while still building the life she has always dreamed of. When Meaghan is not glued to her office chair supporting incredible business owners build their legacies, you can find her soaking up every sweet moment with her family, watching true crime documentaries, baking bread, and sitting in her vegetable garden. Chelsie Meyers is a recovering perfectionist who is releasing herself from societal expectations and stepping into her authenticity. With a strong sense of curiosity and justice, she has spent hours researching everything from natural healing and holistic health to geopolitics and government corruption. Chelsie went from burning out in the educational system as a teacher, to tackling it head-on as a parent a decade later. Parents are key stakeholders in public education, and she is on a mission to restore that role. Chelsie’s ultimate goal is to live in alignment with her best self, trusting her intuition, opening her heart, and flowing in a state of simplicity and ease. As a lifelong learner, she continues to pursue her passions, expand her mind, and discover her life’s purpose. She lives in a small Alberta town with her supportive husband Kerry, their two amazing children, Ben and Lia, and their dog, Stella. Lindsey currently lives in Calgary, AB, with her husband, her one-year-old son, and her two fur kids – a tabby cat named Lulu and a Jack Rusell Terrier, Jovie. When she isn’t busy being a mom and a wife, she enjoys doing dog sports with Jovie, going for walks with her family, being in the kitchen baking delicious treats, and dreaming of her future homestead life. Friends describe her as determined, caring, strong-willed, and ambitious; someone who can be counted on in times of need. She is always working on some new, completely outrageous goal or project.
