00:00:00.000 You mentioned earlier about West Streeting, about how he says one thing to one group of people and another thing to another. One thing that has always confused me about the whole ideology of transgenderism is that I understand that trans groups have a lot of power in their lobbying.
00:00:18.820 But why do you think that politicians who, like Wes Streisand, I think, who has said the words, I've taken it on the chin, about things that he may have got wrong in the past over this particular issue, but what is it that is really pressuring politicians?
00:00:36.920 because yes there might be powerful lobby groups that have trans ideology that they want to push
00:00:42.760 but when it comes to the general public most people when you look at the polling do not believe
00:00:48.660 that people can actually change sex or that men who say they're women should be able to go into
00:00:52.600 women's changing rooms so what is it why is it that politicians are so nervous around this topic
00:00:58.120 is it that they're scared about giving ammunition to the green party for example but it's only been
00:01:05.460 within the last year or so that the Green Party has had more of a surgence in its popularity,
00:01:10.600 but this issue has been going on for so long. Do you have any theory? Because I don't,
00:01:14.680 and I really don't understand this part of it. Why are the politicians so scared about talking
00:01:19.100 about this? Well, in the case of Wes Streeting, he was a former employee of Stonewall. So I don't
00:01:26.720 think we should be completely surprised by the way that he's carrying on with this.
00:01:30.140 In general, I think politicians want to do whatever is most expedient to them.
00:01:35.460 They like to play the field. They rely on public support. And this issue is extremely divisive and contentious.
00:01:45.760 Now, that doesn't mean that there isn't a clear majority against, for example, medicalising children or allowing men into women's spaces, because we know from polling that there is.
00:01:55.100 So that's the shame of it, actually, because the majority of the public would be on politician's side if they stood up for justice and what was right in the name of children and women.
00:02:02.940 But, as you've alluded to, there is a very, very vocal minority of these trans activists.
00:02:07.100 They still carry a lot of clays.
00:02:09.100 There's a lot of organisations, public and private, still count out of them.
00:02:11.780 You know, Stonewall's various rating and review schemes and gold stars for employers.
00:02:15.460 And a lot of them have become so reliant on this.
00:02:18.260 So I think they still wield a lot of power.
00:02:21.940 They can also be a pretty nasty bunch, if I'm honest.
00:02:24.220 And they can get quite violent and nasty.
00:02:26.740 And I've spoken to politicians who have stood up and spoken out against, for example,
00:02:30.480 puberty blockers, and they've received significant threats from some of these individuals. I myself
00:02:34.340 have received frequent threats to my safety.
00:02:37.500 So in going into this, that needs to emphasize how important it is for us to get people into
00:02:45.500 office that support removing all of this from society and protecting our children. But it also
00:02:51.860 shows you, because the LGBTQ activists have been so loud and threatening, that this is the reason
00:02:58.640 why the majority of the politicians need to hear from the majority of Canadians
00:03:03.260 if we plan on turning this around and emboldening them to speak out on this.
00:03:07.720 And I believe Action for Canada has been very, very successful in doing this
00:03:12.520 over the last 10 and a half years because of educating the public.
00:03:17.000 So that's why I say you can help us and you can help society
00:03:20.080 by sharing Action for Canada's material.
00:03:22.600 This is what we're doing on the show tonight.
00:03:24.620 We're educating you on how this machine operates, how it is funded, why Bill C-9 came around, who it is that is putting this forward and approving it.
00:03:37.080 And the rubber stamp may very well go through the Senate because they're owned and operated by the Liberal government.
00:03:44.320 It would be a miracle, but that doesn't mean we're still not going to lobby against the Senate and make sure we have a very loud voice on this.
00:03:51.620 And then in the end, we need to continue to apply pressure to the governor general because she literally does not have the power based on the coronation oath to put legislation forward that violates the biblical Christian standards in Canada.
00:04:07.600 and i know that there are some people that may poo-poo that idea about the coronation oath
00:04:12.200 but unless you believe it in your gut and you're going to assert this if you're if you're going to
00:04:16.740 whimper on it and say oh it's you know just ceremonial well then expect everybody else will
00:04:21.660 as well it's not ceremonial it's a binding commitment and we need to expect that elected
00:04:27.100 officials are going to hold that up
00:04:28.540 Thank you.
