Canada Bill C-11 Could Cut Off Access to Canadian Consumers and Limit Canadian Companies with Daniel Jenkins
01:19:44
We talk about how Canada's Bill C-11 could limit outside access to Canada's consumers and even limit companies in Canada from reaching people in Canada. All this controlled by the government.
About Canada's Bill C-11 On February 2, 2022, the Government of Canada introduced Bill C-11, referred to as the Online Streaming Act (Bill).
The Bill, which seeks to amend Canada's Broadcasting Act (Act), aims to modernize Canada’s broadcasting framework, notably by empowering the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to regulate “online undertakings,” a term that will encompass a range of undertakings, including video and music streaming service providers, as well as social media platforms.
Underpinning the Bill are a number of broadcasting policy objectives, including supporting Canadian content creators, increasing access to Canadian content and its visibility, providing increased opportunities to produce programming in French and in Indigenous languages, and promoting diversity and inclusion in the broadcasting sector.

Insider Tips on How to Handle an IRS Audit with Rick Green, Author and Former IRS Agent
01:32:59
Rick Green spent five years as an IRS auditor -- and lived to tell the tale! In this searing, behind-the-scenes look at the real IRS, and the threat it now poses to the financial well-being of every American, the MBA-trained tax expert documents the everyday abuses which take place daily inside the nation's most feared bureaucracy.
Whether he's describing the "terror tactics" employed by agents intent on gouging every last penny out of taxpayers or the politically astute careerists who dominate a bureaucracy that "routinely tramples on the rights of the citizenry,"
Green's inside look at the Orwellian world of the modern IRS will enlighten the millions who've learned to fear April 15th more than any other day on the calendar. But it doesn't have to be that way, says Green in this episode.
When it comes to paying your federal taxes, knowledge is power -- and Green's one-of-a-kind look into the dark side of the IRS will help you to shrug off their needless fear of the tax agents while learning how to pay their fair share of taxes and not a penny more!

Playboy Centerfold, Covergirl, Actress, and Million Dollar Round Table Salesperson with Deborah Driggs
01:32:46
From Deborah's start as a Playboy Centerfold and Covergirl to her life as a Screen Actors’ Guild member and later, achieving the Top 5% in her industry as a member of the Million Dollar Roundtable, Deborah Driggs has had to clear many hurdles in life. While it may seem like Deborah’s success came easy to her, nothing could be further from the truth. She has overcome a number of challenges in life to get to where she is today. What is true - and a part of her character - is her willingness to take risks, maintain a positive attitude, and never take ‘No’ for an answer.
We talk about how she became a Playboy centerfold, to hanging out at the mansion with Hugh Hefner, if she feels women are exploited for shoots like Playboy, to going through a divorce, reinventing herself, building her own business, becoming a top sales lady and how she's reinventing herself in her fifty's.
This is a "how I built this" episode packed with tips from Deborah that you can use to build your business.
About Deborah Driggs
From her start as a Playboy Centerfold and Covergirl to her life as a Screen Actors' Guild member and then a top-rated insurance industry professional, Deborah Driggs has had to clear many hurdles in life to make it these things happen. And while it may seem like Deborah's success came easy to her, nothing could be further from the truth.
Rather, she's overcome a number of challenges in her life to get to where she is today but what is true, and a part of her character, is her willingness to take risks, maintain a positive attitude, and never take 'no' for an answer.
On January 11, 2020, Deborah began sharing her winning business strategies in a talk she calls, "Not Taking No for an Answer," as part of "Unblinded: The Business Breakthrough Game Sales Mastery Immersion Event." Since then, she has appeared on a number of podcasts, YouTube and Facebook Live interviews and as a motivational speaker for other virtual events. Dedicated to helping women breakthrough negative, self-talk and take on any challenge to which they set their minds, Deborah knows how much of a difference it can make to have a helping hand when one needs it the most.
