Who is this strange, be-toqued fellow who you see on your phone, tablet, or whatever rectangle from which you consume your content?

Steve Boots is a Canadian teacher, content creator, and politics nerd. He talks about Canadian news and politics, as well as whatever else he finds interesting. He breaks down current events and big issues with a combination of snark and compassion that seems to work for him.

He posts videos regularly to TikTok, YouTube, and Bluesky.

He also streams near-daily on Twitch and YouTube! On weekdays, hundreds of people join Steve as he comments on the biggest stories in Canadian news and politics, sheds light on some stories that deserve more attention, and reacts to the most absurd realities of our world with passion and humour.

And why should you listen to Steve? Well, that’s really up to you, but he’d like to think he’s moderately qualified. He’s worked as a teacher for 17 years, and before that worked a variety of jobs and got a range of experiences. He also spent far too long in university hiding from the real world, completing a B.A. in English, with minors in Philosophy and Film, a B.A. in Education with specializations in English and Social Studies, and Master’s of Education, with a focus on educational administration. So he knows some stuff. Kinda. At least the papers in a pile in his closet say so.
