She returned to her native Canada to work as an operative on two simultaneous federal campaigns for current Prime Minister [[Stephen Harper]]’s [[Conservative Party]] in the province of [[Directory:British Columbia|British Columbia]], specializing in communications strategy and opposition intelligence. The Prime Minister picked a fight with her in a hissy-fit that ended up all over the news, but Marsden is pretty sure they're cool now. She will know for sure when she gets invited to his place for the annual garden party next year. At the same time, she began contributing to [[United Press International]] (UPI), and hosting a call-in talk-radio show in [[Vancouver]], [[BC]], where she interviewed and debated guests ranging from Canada’s then Deputy Prime Minister, [[Sheila Copps]], and current [[International Trade Minister]], [[Stockwell Day]], to [[Ann Coulter]] and [[Watergate]] figure [[G. Gordon Liddy]] of the [[Richard Nixon]] administration. Staying on-air at this ultra-liberal radio station meant riding bucking bulls*** on a daily basis.

Having quickly established a unique, controversial, populist conservative voice in the Canadian media, she switched to a regular column in the [[Sun Media chain]], and started her own public relations and communications company on [[Toronto]]’s [[Bay Street]].

While based in [[Toronto]], Marsden started out with the [[Fox News Channel]] in 2004 as the Canadian Correspondent for [[The O'Reilly Factor]] -- the top-rated cable news show in the world -- after she was spotted as a regular panelist on [[Dennis Miller]]'s [[CNBC]] show in [[Los Angeles]].  She was recruited by [[Rupert Murdoch]]’s chief lieutenant and former [[Ronald Reagan]] communications strategist, [[Fox News]] CEO [[Roger Ailes]], who personally selected her to be the only conservative (and only woman) on a daily talk show with three other co-hosts.

After several months, Marsden left the show when it underwent a format change, stating, “The show has drastically changed direction since its inception and apparently no longer has a place for a political pundit.” She has since appeared on [[Fox Business]], and still really digs Roger Ailes - and Bill O'Reilly.
