This week on the Global Research News Hour, as the wildfires in Manitoba and across Canada are raising concerns and has many figures pointing to Climate Change as a major culprit, we resurrect an earlier interview pertaining to secret technology being used that not only affects forest fires, but also weather, earthquakes, hurricanes and even shockingly people! We will speak to the author of the Geoengineering trilogy and discuss the fourth book, “The Geoengineered TransHuman: The Hidden Technologies of HAARP, Chemtrails, 5G/6G, nanotechnology, Synthetic Biology, and the Scientific Effort to Transform Humanity.”

Global Research News: Cuba's Struggles in 2025. More than "El Bloqueo?"
Tuesday May 20, 2025
Tuesday May 20, 2025
The Cuban people have been through so much over the last 60 plus years with intense periods of hardship, especially over the last decade. The bulk of this hardship, I suspect, is due to the Blockade.
But there is a disturbing trend developing at least as far back as the Obama administration, that elements of the Cuban society are succumbing to American pressure and are serving roles willingly or not against the very principles of the Revolution. If that is the case, how does the resistance in the streets react to the reality of the enemy within so to speak? And has the Revolutionary fight weakened with the death of the legendary Fidel Castro? That concept will be the subscript to the discussion in a special episode of this program.

This week on the Global Research News Hour, we turn our attention to the massive killings of Alawites, Sunnis and Christians continuing to take place in parts of Syria while the so-called pro-democratic Western media looks on with indifference, and continues to present the culprits, Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham or HTS, as the 'new and improved regime. We spend most of our show in conversation with award-winning journalist and photographer Vanessa Beeley discussing the experiences of many who have been fleeing and of her own experience in mid-December. Then toward the end of our show, we are joined by military and geopolitical analyst Drago Bosnic to get insights from him on the broad goals of themain foreign power interests supporting HTS in Syria supposedly for the good of the people.

This week, on the Global Research news Hour, we feature appearances by some of the candidates in the Canadian elections as they situate themselves and their positions in time for the April 28 national vote. We start our show with one by one discussions with three of the candidates for the riding of Winnipeg Centre which houses radio station CKUW. Then we play back excerpts of a discussion from 2018 with Saskatchewan based farmer, political activist and two time contender for leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada about how Canada is in the same position in 2017 as the Canadian colonies were in back in 1866, and now like then, pulling out of free trade with the U.S. would be to the advantage of those above the 49th parallel.

This week, we provide audio from a special presentation of two Israeli War resisters who were travelling across Canada shedding light on their bold
decision to refuse military service in protest of Israel’s occupation
of Palestine and its ongoing violence in Gaza.
Einat Gerlitz and Tal Mitnick are leading figures in a growing wave of
dissent among Israeli youth, challenging the brutal military
occupation and advocating for Palestinian liberation. Both of them
have paid the price for their stand, enduring time in Israeli military
prisons for their refusal to participate in what they call a violent
system that perpetuates apartheid and genocide. Their actions
have sparked a global conversation about the vital role of war
resisters in the fight for human rights and a free Palestine.
They are also examples of the call to others in military service during illegal wars to Abandon the Battlefield, a major activist call by the Centre for Research on Globalization. So this week, we thought we would give you the entire presentation by these two heroic individuals at the Hope Mennonite Church, in Winnipeg, Manitoba on March 20, 2025.

This week on the Global Research News Hour, we examine the agendas of the billionaire tech pros behind the Trump administration and see that there is a heck of a lot more to be worried about than what has been recently reported in the legacu media. In our first hour we will have a conversation with the author, journalist and the co-founder of the Dailyclout Naomi Wolf about the digital theft Elon Musk perpetrated at the end of January and the repercussions for the public in America and abroad. Then in our second half hour, UK author and journalist Iain Davis joins us to talk about his latest series of articles entitled The Dark MAGA Gov-Corp Technate, which alleges that the wealthy Tech lords standing in the shadows behind him are using their positions to further goals toward a Technocratic future, whether Trump is aware of it or not.
