Notoriously polite Canada has said "no more Mr Nice Guy" by firing back at the US with retaliatory tariffs in a heated trade war.

Should Ukraine hold a wartime presidential election? Well, sacked defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov seems to think so. And no, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that he's ranking #3 in the election polls.

The Canadian province of Alberta might soon take their oil rich land and run, as the referendum approaches which is predicted to ignite debate about their independence from Canada.

Oh Canada!

Is it too good to be true?! 

In this week's Represent National show, Ashley, Benita and Nayan take a look at the Victorian Government's election promise to create 10 free dental clinics in Victoria, and relive the dental woes of Christmas past. 

The team also looks at shocking revelations from a Four Corners investigation reporting thousands of older Australians have died while waiting for aged care funding - who would've thought putting the computers in charge of life-changing care funding could be a bad idea?!

And according to the state Auditor-General’s Office, the Victorian Government hiked public transport fares from last year to fund part of the Suburban Rail Loop, and didn't let the public know! Fun!

Free dental clinics in Victoria?!

Eurovision won't let winning countries involved in active armed conflict host the competition in another move from the famously political singing competition that is strictly apolitical.

Presumably preparing for the possibility that they enter and win one day, South Korea is calling for a new push to formally end the Korean War.

Because we all know if they were ever allowed to compete in Eurovision, South Korea would absolutely SWEEP.

And in their strongest worded letter so far, Australia expressed outrage at the IDF’s announcement they would not pursue criminal investigations into the strikes that killed seven humanitarian aid workers including Australian citizen, Zomi Frankcom.

Can Eurovision's war ban achieve world peace?

This week on Represent National, we're tackling some big questions, starting with whether we should abandon the British monarchy and become a republic or not. Australia voted against ditching the Mountbatten-Windsors in 1999, and now it's dividing the Represent team in 2026.  

We also talk about One Nation MP Barnaby Joyce proclaiming his party to be "one of the gayest" in Australia, after a former One Nation candidate described being gay as a "mental illness". What is One Nation's stance on homophobia, or really, on anything? We're not so sure they know. 

Finally, we look at new national minimum standards for food delivery drivers, meaning they will have to be paid at least $31.30 per hour for "engaged time". But what does that mean exactly, and can we expect prices to go up for consumers? All that and more in this episode.
