Maxime Bernier, leader of the People's Party of Canada, joins us on the power hour to discuss his vision for the future of the country, and why he founded the PPC in 2018. Maxime talks about how he got into politics, why he decided to run for Prime Minister, and what it means to be a true Canadian.
00:00:49.100We need to use diplomacy, put it on the table, have a discussion and be sure to have a good deal.
00:00:55.200So we need to have an adult discussion with Trump.
00:00:59.660We are always so delighted to have Maxime Bernier, leader of the People's Party of Canada, joining us on the Empower Hour.
00:01:11.680Maxime founded the PPC in 2018 when he realized the Conservative Party was no longer conservative,
00:01:18.520but we're in fact embracing a radical shift towards a progressive agenda that no longer reflected the traditional values that our country has been gifted with.
00:01:30.360Maxime isn't afraid to speak out about issues that affect us all.
00:01:34.200And he is a leading figure in the quest to preserve our rights, freedoms and democracy.
00:01:40.200Tonight, we are so pleased that he's joining us to discuss some of the unprecedented and remarkable front page headlines that are currently featured in the news.
00:01:51.980Will you all please help me welcome Maxime Bernier.
00:02:50.700And we talked about also the radical LGBTQ.
00:02:55.240And I remember I was very concerned back there and for good reason about the military and the police, how they were underfunding them, undermining them.
00:03:05.640And basically, we don't really have much of a security system here in Canada to protect Canadians.
00:03:10.980And so, yeah, there was a lot of good conversation in that room.
00:03:15.680I'll be eternally grateful for Valerie introducing us and making that trip with me to your office.
00:03:21.320So, yeah, that was the beginning of a wonderful friendship.
00:03:26.240And I must admit also, that was the beginning for me to know a little bit more.
00:03:31.500And after that discussion with you and Valerie, I decided to study a little bit more about what is happening in our country with radical Islam, Islamism and all that.
00:03:46.780Yeah, thank you, Maxine, for saying that.
00:03:49.180I know you had mentioned it to me a couple of years ago when we were at an event and you had come up and said, you know, thank you for that.
00:03:56.700I was so busy on finances that I wasn't looking at these social issues that were going on.
00:04:01.700And I think that speaks volumes for, I would believe, a lot of people that were sitting in office.
00:04:18.700Because when I decided to jump into politics in 2006, after 19 years in the financial sector, you know, I wanted to be in politics for a smaller government, for the economy, lowering taxes, deregulation.
00:04:33.220But for me, you know, the cultural war was not part of my decision at that time.
00:04:40.740But now, you know, I'm speaking more about the cultural war here in this country that is very important.
00:04:47.720The economy is still important, but it's a big shift from 2006 where, you know, I didn't know anything about that, I must admit.
00:04:55.120And now, you know, I mean, the only leader who's speaking about, you know, that cultural war, they want to destroy the Western civilization values and the family unit.
00:05:08.540And that's not only happening here in Canada, but in other Western countries, as you know.
00:05:13.920Yeah, I would say that in 2015, traditional politics just went out the window, you know, with the entrance of the Liberal Party and then partnering with the NDP and this grandiose global agenda to attack all of our traditional values and Christianity.
00:05:31.500They're really, really hot and heavy after Christian nations.
00:05:35.560This isn't happening within all nations.
00:05:38.220Like, they wouldn't consider half of this with the 56 Islamic-majority countries.
00:05:43.420And can you imagine them pushing this gender ideology and transgenderism?
00:05:49.520It's, you know, not happening in China because China is behind this attack.
00:05:54.600They think the fall of the West, they can do it through fentanyl,
00:05:57.720but they can do it through destroying our family, reproduction.
00:06:02.300You know, it is an unprecedented kind of war that we're in.
00:06:06.320And unfortunately, it took Canadians quite a while to start waking up.
00:06:10.400And they're still not quite there, but we have way more on our side than we did even a year ago, I would say.
00:10:33.040The government isn't supposed to be, you know, a weak government that would allow such depravity and evil to enter our nation.
00:10:39.560And so it's time for a really effective government to gain control and start turning things around strategically like they've done in the United States.
00:10:48.820And our viewers need to remember that Stephen Harper was also signing on to the Sustainable Development Goals.
00:10:55.020He had been in the Bohemian Grove down, was that in Oregon or California?
00:11:01.820He was also part of the World Economic Forum.
00:11:08.040He delivered a speech over there and he said that all the goals and the philosophy of the World Economic Forum are great.
00:11:15.280You know, it's a socialist organization, a globalist organization, and he was OK with that.
00:11:20.280He signed the Paris Accord at that time to be sure that Canada will do everything to fight climate change when there's no emergency.
00:11:32.720Right. And then when Andrew Scheer, because there's some of these things that I don't think our viewers know about the Conservative Party leading up to Justin Trudeau taking over
00:11:43.800and why we already had a weak Senate and a weak judiciary because of the lack of stepping up and really taking control on Harper's behalf.
00:11:54.800But there is a history within the Conservative Party, even after you left.
00:11:59.300And for leadership of the party, Andrew Scheer ran against you.
00:12:03.820I'll always say that that was a corrupt election.
00:12:06.480I'm always going to say that you are the true, you were the true winner of that.
00:12:11.920But unfortunately, you know, they destroyed all the ballots before there was an honest recount.
00:12:18.740Anyways, that's just my two bits on that.
00:18:04.380And what we need to do, like you said about judges, to do like the U.S., an investigation on them.
00:18:10.560And before appointing any judges, we must be sure to have, you know, a parliamentary commission that will ask questions and will know who that person is.
00:20:18.320I know that it would be better if we can have an elected Senate, but it's not part of our platform because we want to, we all will be able to have a better country without dealing with that.
00:20:32.940And, you know, the sooner, the better.
00:20:34.980I ended up at Christmas finding out that a drag queen in Kelowna had filed a notice of civil claim against me because two years ago, his name is Tyson Cook and goes under the name drag queen Frida Wells.
00:20:53.540Our team in Kelowna, you know, was doing an action thinking, you know what, you shouldn't be reading to children.
00:20:59.120And we always say, do a deep dive when somebody like this is going to do a show.
00:21:03.440Well, let's find out a little bit more about them.
00:21:05.760Know the person who's who's behind this.
00:21:07.760And we discovered that he had videos that he had creative created where he's murdering people.
00:21:14.920Then he's grinding them up in in in a grinder and then eating them and feeding them to his pig and then murdering another person, chloroforming a woman.
00:21:48.580And in doing so, the school superintendent and the school board did nothing about it and gave him a free pass.
00:21:56.400And so nearly two years later, just under the two year mark, they get the unions.
00:22:00.860He's got the unions I've had reported to me.
00:22:03.700That's just reportedly that he has the unions behind him and has, you know, is dealing with one of the most expensive legal groups, you know, in the country and around the world.
00:22:16.080And I'm like, how does a person like that, how are they able to retain a law firm like this coming after me and saying I made defamatory and libelous comments?
00:22:25.840I'm like, I just took what was on your own social media that you had public for children, what you had public on YouTube, and I posted that for the public.
00:22:36.620And so we'll see where, you know, this is going to go.
00:22:38.960I've retained a lawyer and I just had to have a change of lawyers today for different reasons, but that's OK.
00:22:45.480And then we'll move forward on this case.
00:22:48.120And the lawyer said, you know, 15 years ago, this wouldn't even be an issue.
00:22:51.920And I'm like, yeah, but it is today and it still shouldn't be an issue.
00:22:55.460And I'm not going to buy into their language to think that it's OK for a man who chooses to have very large breasts and come and read to children to think that's OK to mimic being a woman.
00:23:34.680We need, you know, we need legislation that will protect people like you against lawsuits because you will spend money to defend yourself and to defend us.
00:24:06.340Please give us an update on what is going on with the Debates Commission's decision to to change their policies so that you no longer need four percent.
00:24:15.660Now you need X amount of candidates, I believe, in order to to debate.
00:24:34.140And we had that commission leaders commission debate at that time.
00:24:38.760And they said to us, you know, if you want to participate in the national debates, you, the People's Party and Bernie, the leader, you need to have 90 percent of candidates all across the country.
00:27:09.060Because they said, we want to have a discussion with every leader of a national political party about what will be the format for the next debate in 2025.
00:27:19.520So my team said, OK, that means that you won't change your criteria.
00:27:25.280We had 5 percent of the vote at the previous election.
00:28:39.860They are censoring 840,000 people who voted for the People's Party at the last election.
00:28:49.020And I must admit, Tania, that won't be a debate without us, because on all the big issues, we are the only party that is fighting for, for example, you know, withdrawal from the Paris Accord, withdrawal from the Migration Compact, ending mass immigration.
00:29:05.120All these traditional establishment political parties are OK with mass immigration and climate change and all that.
00:29:33.520And we are telling the debate commissions that we're not happy with that.
00:29:37.860So what we will do also, Tania, we will try 28 days before the election, when they will give the final decision and pretty sure that they will cheat and say that we have less than 4 percent on average in the polls.
00:29:54.660For sure, we will sue them and try to have an injunction about it and demonstrate that it's unfair.
00:30:03.000And, you know, they are doing that only to exclude us from the national debates.
00:30:07.920We will fight until the end and we'll do everything to be able to participate in these debates.
00:30:13.280Well, I'm so glad that you covered all of that, because, again, I think that a lot of our viewers would not know the details.
00:30:20.320We're going to make sure that the petition is available in the description when we post this on Rumble.
00:30:29.820And so I'm also going to encourage people, please help Maxime out.
00:30:35.040Please help the party out that if you know somebody who would make a good candidate for them to reach out to the PPC and then surround that person with support.
00:30:45.100And right now it might just be bums in seats sometimes, I would say, like we just need numbers.
00:30:53.140If there was legitimate candidates as well, the party would really, really appreciate that.
00:30:59.320But just briefly, I know that we go over this every time as well.
00:31:03.840There's going to be people that are thinking, oh, Maxime, you know, dividing the votes.
00:31:07.460But with the Conservatives having this majority lead right now, whether Mark Carney gets, you know, ahead of the party or not, nobody's too impressed with the Liberal Party.
00:31:18.420So I think that's going to be a slam dunk.
00:40:39.840And I just want to encourage people as well.
00:40:42.740Action for Canada is working 24-7 every day of the year.
00:40:46.300You know, every four years, there's an election, whether it's municipal, provincial or federal.
00:40:51.080And I feel like we have one of the best strategies of war in Canada, because we're such a huge country,
00:40:56.440is to get people working together within their communities so that and reaching out to churches
00:41:02.280in their communities, bringing awareness, educating people and getting them activated and mobilized.
00:41:06.880One of the ways that we're doing that as well is encouraging that good leaders raise up and within those communities and that people support them.
00:41:17.260And for Action for Canada, we're not, you know, running after third party designation and all of this,
00:41:22.660because once this is established, people within those communities know what to do.
00:41:27.780They can go and do and go door knocking.
00:44:10.040But this man has been living in, like, solitary confinement because of him speaking out against the Islamists and the takeover in the country.
00:44:19.400And this is the courage that it's taken to win back the Netherlands.
00:44:22.640And look at the rise of support in the Netherlands for him.
00:44:25.260And as you say, I'm very excited about Marine Le Pen.
00:44:33.220Germany has another election right around the corner.
00:44:35.960Now, with the United States, I want to ask you, when Trump had made this statement about the tariffs and making Canada the 51st state, everybody was like, ah, you know, but I didn't take him seriously.
00:45:00.480And it was, it was, okay, there was an adult, there is an adult in the room, you know, unlike what was going on with Jagmeet Singh and Trudeau.
00:45:09.400And so, sorry, quite frankly, Pierre Polyev.
00:45:11.380So what was, what is your position on how you would be handling this with President Trump?
00:46:00.620And I'm pretty sure that he really loved what he saw in Canada because all these leaders said, oh, okay, we will, you know, react dollar for dollar, and we must do that trade war.
00:46:50.680We will be tough on crimes and drugs, and we'll do all that.
00:46:54.980So Trump said, okay, I want to impose my tariff.
00:46:57.920I give you a month to do that and to prove to me that you are serious.
00:47:01.520But it's a little bit sad, Tanya, that we had the president of the United States who, because of him, now we have our prime minister that is working for our own interests and protecting us.
00:47:18.780He's doing that for us right now, and he's doing that.
00:47:22.740He didn't do that the last nine years.
00:47:25.060He just did it because Trump did ask him.
00:47:27.780And so we must thank Trump for having a prime minister that will secure our borders, fight crimes, and being sure that our streets will be secure.
00:47:56.200The other thing is, I said, if you do a commercial war, you will impose tariff on us.
00:48:03.100The tariff that Trump wants to impose, it will be on the American, not on us.
00:48:10.200It will be on the American consumers, American businesses.
00:48:14.140So when you said, I will do the same, our government and our leaders in this country, every party, like you said, they are ready to impose tariff on us.
00:50:38.480And, you know, I see all these communications coming up in support of what it is that you're saying, Maxime.
00:50:44.400And I'm hoping this video will go viral.
00:50:47.100I'm going to ask everybody to please share, share, share it, because everything we could possibly want in an elected official, Maxime, his platform completely covers every aspect of that.
00:51:36.400But I've been a bit confused by why the RCMP and there's not a deeper dive and investigation in there months and months ago when I heard about it.
00:51:45.360But now I'm looking at it and we're going to go into right now with the USAID, USAID, USAID, that has been exposed in the United States with pouring hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars into these racketeering, into I'm calling it a massively huge wealth transfer.
00:52:09.580The same thing is happening in Canada.
00:52:11.820And I'll just go back to Sam Cooper for a minute because he was saying, let me just find where I have this, it's something along the line.
00:52:20.200It says, B.C. is a node of international trafficking like the Panama Canal and like Mexico.
00:52:27.260That's what we are being compared to right now.
00:52:30.540The U.S. government knows this and suggested that Canada needs a racketeering act.
00:52:35.820And that also the, and I know this because I'm working personally with individuals on the security for Canada and with individuals in the United States, that the U.S. government doesn't even trust our intelligence.
00:52:52.960They won't even invite them to the table for a conversation because they're so compromised.
00:52:57.040Yeah, no, you have a, you have a point there and about the fentanyl, as you know, you know, all these, it's coming from China.
00:53:06.580We know that and by boat at the Vancouver port and there's, you know, facilities in B.C. and in Ontario, they are fabricating that drug and sending that to the U.S.
00:53:20.440We knew that in Canada, the RCMP, our secret services did nothing about that.
00:53:26.020And now Trump said, you know, fix that.
00:55:16.720It has to do with extreme cultural differences in the way we function.
00:55:22.340And if you don't like Canadian culture, then we're respectfully saying go back to a country that supports, you know, what it is your belief system is because it's not working here.
00:55:37.500And so that is indeed part of why Trump was saying clean up the extremism.
00:55:43.620They're focusing on fentanyl right now, but Islamic extremism in Canada should be a national 9-1-1 emergency that we're facing right now in this country.
00:56:39.240You know, Tanya, I'm used to say that if you want to have guests at your house, if, you know, you don't have a bed and you don't have a room for them, you know, you won't invite them to your house.
00:56:50.400You want to invite them and having everything to give them a nice dinner and being able to sleep at your house, using the toilet.
00:56:58.420If your toilet is not working, you won't invite them.
00:58:50.740If I'm a racist, then why don't we look at the 56 Islamic majority countries, China, Pakistan, North Korea, are they all racist as well?
00:58:59.800Because I, as a white woman, wouldn't be able to go there and run for office, you know, and sit in their legislatures or make any decisions.
00:59:07.400It's not about the color of our skin in Canada.
00:59:10.760What it's about is embracing our way of life.
00:59:14.500That means you wipe the, you know, your shoes clean when you come into Canada.
00:59:18.680I believe that we need to bring it back to swear a Bible, to swear on a Bible, the oath to become a Canadian citizen.
00:59:30.620That is part of our foundational system is that our country is based on biblical Christian principles and that we also, we would be well served to shut down all of the Islamic schools.
00:59:44.920And we have the schools and we have the school of Kelsa here because the majority of them are teaching their kids the traditional values that don't align with Canadian principles and values.
00:59:59.540And I recently sent a report to intelligence and to the United States and intelligence and I have contacts with high ranking intelligence about an educational center here in Canada.
01:00:11.700And they are all tied to Hezbollah, the directors.
01:00:15.840They've had funding from the Republic of Iran.
01:00:21.560And then they have books in the school where the kids have grenades tied to their waist and they're supposed to write about, you know, who their hero is as far as these suicide bombers.
01:00:33.880Is that what we should be relaying to our kids in Canada?
01:00:38.140And so we need to understand that it is okay that we insist that it is only Canadian education and history that will be taught in this country.
01:00:49.140And then I think that that will bring about the kind of change where people from those countries and cultures will just decide to no longer come to Canada because we're no longer going to accommodate their failed foreign systems of governance and belief systems.
01:01:02.240You have a point there, Tanya, and that's why we need that moratorium, but also we need to have the mass deportation.
01:01:10.300You know, in 2019, we had a billboard during that election that was say no to mass immigration.
01:01:17.620And I think that the next billboard will be say no to mass immigration, say yes to mass deportation.
01:02:20.400And I want to thank you because when you started your petition about that, you did educate the population about the impact of mass immigration.
01:02:29.080And we are also educating the population on our policies.
01:02:56.140And, you know, you have been somebody that when people bring about, you know, some awareness on an issue that's really, really critical, you take the time to look into it.
01:03:08.780You take the time to consider it and then consider what your policy will be on that.
01:03:13.320And you always hold a very strong position.
01:03:16.240I understand, we'll almost wrap up, it's top of the hour here, but that there's something like 4.6 million immigrants that can be deported because they are here on temporary visas, temporary citizenship.
01:03:29.780And I believe 100% it needs to happen because the majority are out of India.
01:03:34.400And please understand, it's not that I don't care about these people, but this is demolishing our sovereignty.
01:03:42.020I go to Walmart, I go to, I don't go to fast food, I never go to Tim Hortons anymore, but all of them, all of the employees are from India, they're immigrants, it's all part of that DEI initiative and program.
01:03:57.260And that's just wrong, and it's wrong, it's not fair to Canadians.
01:04:00.280And so I think that we need to clean up the nation, deport as many people as we can, it will send a clear message, when you come to Canada, you respect our way of life, or you're not going to be welcome here.
01:04:12.780And, you know, I read again today about a rapist, he's 22 years old, he is from Nigeria or somewhere, I can't quite remember.
01:04:22.780He's 22 years old, over a matter of six or seven months, he's raped, that we know of, and sexually assaulted three people.
01:04:31.980One was a 74-year-old woman who he repeatedly, you know, abused, sexually assaulted in her home over an hour's time.
01:04:39.680And this person has been let out on bail.
01:04:43.160And now, I think Brampton or Hamilton, Hamilton police have put out a notice.
01:04:48.100And then we're supposed to be unarmed in this country?
01:04:50.980I, you know what, I'm so irate about this, I have grandchildren, I am going to fight, I am going to talk about our absolute rights in this country to defend and protect ourselves.
01:05:05.900And so just super grateful to hear where you stand on this particular issue.
01:05:11.240So as we wrap up, I know that there was the USAID.
01:05:15.040I thought about Warren Kinsella, actually, when I read this, wrong or right, he had really attacked you some years ago to destroy your reputation, it was like to destroy your reputation.
01:05:30.940And the Conservative Party, I believe, had hired him.
01:05:36.860The Conservative Party gave him $160,000 to discredit us and to say to the journalists and everybody that we were a racist party in 2019 just to discredit us.
01:05:51.660And that was because our position on immigration with a maximum of $150,000 a year.
01:05:57.140And now, six years later, he's speaking like us.
01:06:02.320He's saying the same thing that I was saying.
01:06:32.600Yeah, I just wanted to bring it up because, you know, I went through that journey with you, you know, as an organization supporting you and trying to bring awareness that this individual was, you know, really trying to annihilate your reputation.
01:07:28.240And so I, as well, am glad to see that Warren Kinsella, because I've been seeing his name a lot on the immigration issue, anti, you know, the anti-Jewish.
01:07:37.520He's supporting the Jewish community, the Israelis.
01:07:49.400You deserve it, Maxime, because you've taken it in the chin as well.
01:07:53.720And so USAID, I call it USAID, USAID, it came out that they, as well, in foreign funding, in order to annihilate individuals and organizations as well,
01:08:06.460something like 1.4 million went towards the NDP at a provincial election in Manitoba.
01:08:12.460I'm hoping something's going to come out to show and help us out in our investigation with the BC NDP, David Eby, and what their party did.
01:08:20.460We're learning about some real rot there.
01:08:22.800But I also wonder if Action for Canada's name on there, because our team has said, man, have we been censored?
01:10:18.460I'm very pleased, and I'm looking forward to have another interview with you in a couple of weeks.
01:10:23.080I would love it, Maxime, and whenever you have something new, be sure to even reach out.
01:10:28.540I'm going to make sure that we have the links that we've discussed in the description.
01:10:33.100And actually, you know, I was sitting here thinking, I thought, wouldn't it be great if Maxime Bernier ended up being prime minister one day,
01:10:39.140and then a funded action for Canada as an NGO?
01:10:45.540Yeah, yeah, we will help our people for sure.
01:10:49.240I'm thinking about the hundreds of billions of dollars these greedy LGBTQ groups get and everything,
01:11:58.540This week, I'm going to be doing the news report.
01:12:00.760As you know, I'm alternating between Empower Hour and news report.
01:12:04.100But I will be having Steve Merrill join us on the show.
01:12:07.380If you'll remember, he is the one that's assisting people in buying silver and gold with, you know, cash, you know, the risk of holding cash or having our money in the bank.
01:12:19.740Canadians are just wanting a little bit of backup.
01:12:22.480And, of course, silver and gold never lose their value.
01:12:26.140So Steve is going to give us a financial update.
01:12:28.300There's been massively big announcements regarding the gold reserves, where people have purchased massive amounts of gold and silver on paper.
01:12:40.480And now when it's time to come to collect, there's actually no tangible real gold or silver.
01:12:46.120And we're talking tons, tons of gold that cannot be transported to the buyer.
01:12:55.600And how that affects the economy, how that affects us personally, how that affects our investment into silver gold.
01:13:03.360So I think it's going to be a great show next week.
01:13:05.320So be sure to mark that on your calendar and join us.
01:13:09.680And so then finally, in closing, I'll just stop sharing screen and to our Bible verse this week.
01:13:19.500If you don't stand firm in your faith, you won't stand at all.
01:13:24.640Isn't that just so powerful, but short and simple?
01:13:28.580If you don't stand firm in your faith, you won't stand at all.
01:13:32.520And that's because for myself, I boast about this almost every single Wednesday when I speak to you, that because of my faith, it says in the Bible that if you have the faith the size of a mustard seed, which is like one of the tiniest, smallest little seeds, but it grows to be one of the biggest plants.
01:13:50.880So if you have the faith the size of a mustard seed, that you can move mountains.
01:13:54.020And that's when you pray on things like for years, I've been praying and pleading with God, please, Lord, expose all the corruption in this country.
01:14:03.040Expose all the individuals that are coming here from foreign countries that are setting up their belief systems that are destroying our own system, system of government governance and our sovereignty.
01:14:14.420And, you know, Canadians really had to learn the hard way by not becoming aware sooner and being too polite about it.
01:14:24.500But now it is a matter that when we are in public, sadly, we cannot understand the majority of people, the language that they're speaking around us.
01:14:46.620I'm having to be censored so I don't say the wrong thing to offend people.
01:14:50.800And if people come to Canada, no matter the color of their skin, and they embrace our way of life, there's nothing to offend because we're all aligned.
01:14:58.620So we need to truly be aligned based on Canadian values and principles.
01:15:15.400In times of financial uncertainty, securing your wealth is more important than ever.
01:15:21.560With inflation, market instability, and economic challenges, many Canadians are turning to the timeless strategy of investing in precious metals.
01:15:32.060Gold and silver have historically retained their value, offering a hedge against economic turmoil and a safeguard for your assets.
