In this episode of Hart2Heart, Dr. Mike Hart sits down with Daniel Ari Freiheit, better known as Lion Advocacy on X to dive deep into government inefficiencies, civil liberties, and economic policies. As a corporate commercial lawyer in Ontario, Dan has been outspoken about vaccine mandates, employment rights, and the growing concerns around government spending. In this conversation, Dan and Dr. Hart tackle pressing issues like carbon taxes, MAID expansion, the fentanyl crisis, and even the provocative idea of Canada becoming the 51st state. They also explore what a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) could uncover, from wasted resources to bureaucratic mismanagement, and how it could reshape Canada’s political landscape.
