Hello and welcome to another episode of Long Live Canada.
00:02:36.080
I'm Daniel Tyree. I'm the founder and chairman of the Dominion Society, but tonight I am your host.
00:02:42.400
We have another great episode ahead of us where I want to talk a bit about some big news about immigration over the last week.
00:02:49.840
I want to talk about the warring op-eds in the Western Standard over the last couple of days.

00:04:56.460

00:05:01.560
a little bit um while while we get things rolling for this week before dumping into some of the more
00:05:08.020

00:05:20.100

00:06:01.420
get things rolling. Ignore all my mistakes. Let's keep going. Let's keep going, plowing through.
00:06:07.260
I want to start off with an article here in the Toronto Star. Here we go.
00:06:23.340
So we have this article here in Canada's immigration bill may compromise rights,
00:06:29.420
UN committee says. This is all about the UN's response to Mark Carney's new Bill C-12. This
00:06:40.100
has been kind of flying under the radar. There hasn't been a lot of focus on this new border
00:06:44.520
security bill coming down from the Liberal government. There's been a lot of attention
00:06:48.940
this week on stuff like Bill C-9 and stuff, other important things. But this has been going on for
00:06:56.060
since the summer and people don't talk about it very much. And to be honest, this bill is pretty
00:07:02.080
based. And you can tell because the UN and the Toronto Star are seething about it. So let's run
00:07:09.960
through this article a bit. We can look at the bill a bit as well. But Ms. Gada Al-Sharif, who
00:07:17.060
is the immigration and work reporter for the Toronto Star, you can't make this stuff up,
00:07:20.760
is really trying her best to make me like Mark Carney.
00:07:27.360
The United Nations Human Rights Committee is sounding the alarm over Canada's immigration and borders bill,
00:07:33.000
saying its measures may weaken refugee protection
00:07:36.020
and compromise the country's compliance with international human rights obligations.
00:07:44.480
which examined Canada's compliance with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights,
00:07:49.540
said Canada should ensure asylum seekers have unfettered access to its territory and fair
00:07:55.620
procedures. It called for safeguards, ensuring this principle under international human rights
00:08:00.900
law, and no one should be returned to the country where they would face torture or serious human
00:08:06.040
rights violations. So for some context, Bill C-12 is this new border bills. There's some stuff in
00:08:15.240
there about money laundering as well, but the main focus is around the asylum system, around
00:08:21.680
refugees. And there are some, frankly, some good changes in there, particularly this one here in
00:08:32.300
the next, covered in the next paragraph. Bill C-12 proposes to bar people who first came to Canada
00:08:38.080
more than a year ago from filing refugee claims with the Immigrant and Refugee Board. Canada's
00:08:44.000
main asylum review body. The legislation would require anyone in that category to apply for
00:08:50.160
pre-removal risk assessment, which is normally a measure for rejected asylum claimants. Now,
00:08:55.060
this is a totally moderate and sensible policy. The reason that they're cutting this off,
00:09:00.880
making it so that you can't apply for refugee status if you've been in the country already
00:09:04.520
for more than a year, is to synergize with the Carney government's new cuts to specifically
00:09:13.320
the temporary foreign worker program and the foreign student program. As a result of these
00:09:18.900
cuts, there has been a lot of people suggesting and a lot of attempts for these students and
00:09:26.420
temporary foreign workers, these people on temporary visas, to try and game the system
1.00
00:09:31.480
and stay in the country by then applying for asylum status. This would let them sit in that
0.99
00:09:36.820
backlog system and get access to all sorts of social programs, the Kearney government is
00:09:43.100
preventing that through this new Bill C-12. So if they had already been in the country for
00:09:48.380
a year, two years, three years studying or whatever, they are now not going to be able to
00:09:54.820
game the system by pretending they're refugees. And the UN, the star, they're clutching their
0.94
00:10:02.360
pearls over it as if there's a risk here but even then they like they have included this step they
00:10:07.620
have allowed for a pre-removal risk assessment they're just not letting them apply for refugee
00:10:11.400
status in in order to avoid removal and again like this is this is very sensible their temporary
00:10:19.760
visas ending they should be uh they should be forced to leave and uh the cardi government is
00:10:33.460
This is very sensible and the UN and the star screaming
00:10:37.000
about it as if it's some sort of radical policy.
00:10:44.760
So the other very interesting thing about Bill C-12
00:10:49.760
is it allows the government to like kind of sweeping powers
00:10:59.220
to revoke and cancel asylum claimants, refugees
0.99
00:11:10.300
This is another controversial point of this bill
00:11:19.760
there's so many hilarious lines in this article if the government has no shame about ignoring the
00:11:26.660
UN Human Rights Committee then what does it say about Canada and this government committing to
00:11:31.960
upholding international human rights law oh no they're not going to uphold international law
00:11:36.960
oh no they don't respect the United Nations like they're really trying their hardest to make me like
00:11:42.060
mark carney here but wow we're enforcing our borders wow it's so unacceptable
00:11:57.980
here we go bill c-12 would also give the government the power to stop accepting new
00:12:01.980
immigration applications or cancel existing application when it decides it's in the public
00:12:06.620
interest. Immigration Minister Diab and the department officials have previously said the
00:12:12.940
public interest is kept intentionally vague in the bill, which has yet to become law to give them
00:12:17.580
to give the government leeway to approach a range of future situations such as pandemics or
00:12:22.980
espionage threats. Like this is a good piece of legislation. And think about the hypothetical,
00:12:31.000
Like if a more anti-immigrant party were to come to power subsequent to Mark Carney, they wouldn't even have to advance new legislation in order to quickly clean up our asylum system.
00:12:43.860
They could simply deem, they could use this very intentionally vague language, rethink how we consider the national interest, and completely shut down pretty much everyone in the asylum system.
00:13:01.540
this is a bold piece of legislation and i think it's like when we put forward these pretty
00:13:09.900
new and radical reforms on the immigration system people people like to to fear monger and say oh
00:13:17.000
people will never put up with that people will never accept it but like bill c12 is a perfect
00:13:20.920
example like this is this is a great example of legislation that a nationalist government could
00:13:26.900
could advance and look at the public sentiment no one even cares no one's paying attention to this
00:13:31.180
at all yes the un's shrieking but like is there any like do do average canadians out on the street
00:13:37.900
even know about this like this is just going on in the background no one cares it's they're going
00:13:43.200
to clean up the system people will be happy for it inflation will go down government spending will
00:13:48.060
go down it's all it's all heading in the right direction and like just to compare how scared and
00:13:56.480
cowardly the conservatives are on this issue because they're so worried of the way that it
00:14:02.700
will be perceived in immigrant communities. They're so concerned about backlash from the media.
00:14:07.300
Whereas the liberals just plow ahead with much more radical policy than what the CPC advances.
00:14:13.320
In fact, the CPC has criticized the liberals for this very piece where they can en masse
00:14:20.120
cancel people in the refugee system. Let's watch this clip I have from Michelle Rempel
0.96
00:14:30.620
The ability to kick mass groups of people out, undefined, who they don't like. That's what it
00:14:39.680
sounds like to me. You're not being specific with regard to safeguards here. You're literally
00:14:43.920
asking parliament to circumvent laws that allow that protect charter rights and to mass cancel
00:14:51.060
entire groups of people who could be here and you can't say who how could i go to like ethnic
00:14:56.680
groups in my community and say that i could vote for this this is actually bananas and so anti
00:15:02.360
canadian so what are those specific safeguards you haven't defined it in the legislation you're
00:15:07.220
sitting here blathering and like you're literally asking us to say yeah we should give the government
00:15:20.000
Are you going to be saying the same thing to them
00:15:40.400
or she has dry eyes or what's up with that but it's a we uh i'm gonna start calling her blinky
1.00
00:15:46.560
um but it's just an absurd clip there from michelle rumple who's the conservative party's
00:15:51.520
immigration critic first of all she's misrepresenting the law i wish it was to to
00:15:55.680
to cancel prs on mass that would be even more based this is just for a refugee and asylum claims
00:16:01.680
and she's like how would you how can i justify this to immigrants in my writing
0.93
00:16:06.620
how would you justify this on immigrant media red fm it's absolutely ridiculous like the people
1.00
00:16:13.940
often uh uh criticize me for attacking the conservatives too much especially after this
00:16:19.840
stunt the conserve what thing back a couple months ago but the reality is like the the
00:16:25.500
time and time again it seems like the liberals are further right on this issue than the
00:16:29.880
conservatives are uh and yes i agree i see people in the chat saying oh it's it doesn't uh uh
00:16:36.560
uh it doesn't go far enough like obviously i agree but this is clearly a step in the right
00:16:41.980
direction and and obviously this legislation is not going to be wielded to the most extreme use
00:16:50.320
like hypothetically once this becomes law they could just cancel everyone in the in the in the
00:16:57.300
in the queue there's like 400 500 000 current asylum claims that are there in the system
00:17:02.320
hypothetically they could say it's in the national interest we're canceling them all
00:17:05.460
and sending them back um obviously they're not going to do that obviously carney's not that
00:17:11.300
based uh but they could and that's what the legislation does allow um so we have to we
00:17:17.760
have to consider this a w and and not not only are the un and the the the the star um shrieking
00:17:25.400
but like the conservatives are freaking too like it's actually ridiculous um michelle ramble's gotta
0.90
00:17:30.720
gotta give her head a shake after this one, I think.
1.00
00:17:39.960
I don't support Corny, I don't support Polyev,
1.00
00:18:00.720
did you talk about no i haven't talked about harry potter yet i'll talk about that towards
00:18:06.000
the towards the end um sorry this is what i meant to click on
00:18:10.740
let's see what the chats say and i'll try and interact with the chat a little bit more i'm
00:18:17.840
still getting used to this live stream thing guys it's new for me i've been having fun with it but
00:18:22.620
it's new i'm seeing lots of familiar names in the chat lots of volunteers i'd love to see you guys
00:18:32.400
tuning in pierre should at least reduce it to 200k at least at least we need a complete moratorium
00:18:41.420
when will the end be i'm not quite sure i think this will be a bit of a long show
00:18:46.520
I have a lot to say tonight. Let's talk about this article. So only a fraction of the 153
00:18:55.840
flagged international students were investigated. This is just an absurd standard within our
00:19:02.200
immigration system. Canada's immigration department only conducted 4,000 investigations in 2023
00:19:08.240
and 2024 out of 153 total cases of potential non-compliance under Canada's international
00:19:15.420
student program, according to a new report by the Auditor General released on Monday.
00:19:23.800
For context, there's about, I think, 2 million foreign students in the country
00:19:28.340
over this period. The report, nearly 93% of the 700 Canadian learning institutions submitted
00:19:38.520
reports between 2023 and 2024 that flagged the 153,000 cases as potential fraud or non-compliance.
00:19:44.640
but the department has only has funding to investigate 2 000 cases annually like this is
00:19:52.720
a tiny percent of the overall student body like we only have we're letting in 2 million at any
00:19:58.320
given time and we can only invest we only have the capacity to investigate 2 000 like the numbers are
00:20:03.020
completely out of whack with the with the government's capacity about 41 of these cases
00:20:08.720
could not be closed because of a lack of response from the students absolutely absurd like what are
00:20:14.340
the standards for international students in this country like if you're if the if you're living in
00:20:20.460
a foreign country temporarily and the government reaches out to you like put yourself in that
00:20:24.880
if you were studying in germany or england or whatever and the government reached out to you
00:20:29.960
would you not respond like no of course you would be like oh oh no like what am i gonna get kicked
00:20:34.480
out like i i do everything you can to to be compliant with the government that would that's
00:20:38.860
what normal uh serious students would do right but these people are are gaming the system right
00:20:45.000
they they they think that they can ignore the government and get away with it obviously they
00:20:49.080
can't the government doesn't have the the capacity to keep up with these people um
00:20:53.400
so the the the the programs just obviously balloon too large if our government can't
00:21:02.100
manage the system if we can't make sure people are leaving at the end of their their permits if
00:21:06.300
We can't make sure that we're expunging any fraud from the system.
00:21:11.080
Like, obviously, the numbers need to be drastically reduced.
00:21:14.320
Like, again, you can have a, like, I have a more ideological stance on this issue.
00:21:19.240
But just from a common sense, normie perspective, like, if the government can't manage the size
00:21:28.680
There's more from this article I wanted to touch on.
00:21:36.300
we'll have to get back to you on that like Lena Diab doesn't even understand her department
0.99
00:21:43.260
here I'll bring it back up in 2024 the department forecasted an approval of
00:21:50.260
348,900 new study permits in 2024 that's insane um for context the Kearney government has reduced
00:21:58.480
this by less than half. We're only taking in 155k this year. A significant reduction compared to the
00:22:08.640
years past. I think it was just the end of the article I wanted to touch on. The auditor
00:22:19.960
general's office looked at 450,000 students whose study permits were expired in 2024 and found that
00:22:27.600
93% were allowed to live in remain in Canada why why why are these why are the large majority of
00:22:34.780
these students being allowed to stay at the end of this their term many of them get permits
00:22:40.020
additional permits through the international mobility program so that takes up much of the
00:22:46.140
case of it but many of them are just staying here illegally or applying for asylum status that's why
00:22:52.500
of the 39,500 individuals who should no longer be in canada the auditor
00:23:00.580
auditor general's office confirmed with the cbsa that 16,000 had left the country
00:23:06.380
less than half have left the country like these people are just staying here illegally
1.00
00:23:12.020
i think the auditor general's report today underscores the fact that there aren't adequate
00:23:17.420
checks and balances for to forbade fraud says michelle red bull this is very clear so michelle
00:23:23.820
is right on this issue she's wrong on the other one but she's right on this one this is just
00:23:28.060
another example of how dysfunctional canada's immigration system is we cannot we cannot
00:23:33.100
properly administer it it just keeps getting bigger and bigger this year they're cutting it
00:23:37.100
back because it's so dysfunctional but really we need to have very high standards for international
00:23:43.740
students like I think there is even even if we're massively cutting back even if we're implementing
00:23:50.120
remigration I think there is a place for international students but we need to be much
00:23:54.600
more choosy these people we should be prioritizing like more similarly cultural ethnically linguistically
00:24:02.660
we should be prioritizing countries that are more similar to Canada people that will integrate more
00:24:07.460
effectively into our culture we should there should be strong standards around not working
00:24:13.040
so people can't game the system and it should be in only in numbers that that we can properly
00:24:18.380
enforce standards around things like fraud and and uh enforcing our our basic laws like this
00:24:24.620
um there there is some value to having um international students especially at the
00:24:30.940
the the peak kind of institutions because it does give you um international credibility which brings
00:24:38.280
more credibility to our universities which which positively impacts our own human capital our own
00:24:43.520
people who are because mostly it's Canadians being educated at Canadian universities obviously so
00:24:48.000
there there is a a logic to having some international students in order to bring
00:24:55.560
credibility to our biggest schools but they said at the start of this it's 700 schools many of these
00:25:01.800
are diploma mills maybe many of these are small institutions international students in reality
00:25:07.360
have just become a kind of profit motive for these schools who just view them as kind of
00:25:14.020
cash cows. And that sort of economization of our education system has created all these
00:25:23.400
downstream effects that has led to all this fraud that has led to the system being abused
00:25:29.740
as a kind of de facto work permit type situation. So we need to really crack down. It should be
00:25:35.740
it should be only elite institutions bringing these students in the price should be very high
00:25:40.220
the the the countries that we source them from should be very narrow um we need to completely
00:25:45.660
rethink how the international student program works because it's clear that there's there's
00:25:49.420
too much fraud to um they and and we cannot properly administer this system so those are
00:25:57.260
the big updates on the immigration side of things um the the next big topic i wanted to to go into
00:26:06.140
let's check on the chat see if anyone's anyone's saying anything interesting um the next next big
00:26:14.660
thing i want to talk about is uh the the warring op-eds in the western standard if you guys follow
00:26:22.600
me on Twitter or whatnot, you've probably seen some of this at least. But I think this has been
00:26:31.400
a pretty interesting back and forth. So the Western Standard has been pretty fair to our
00:26:39.680
organization. They interviewed me when I was in Calgary. They covered our protests there.
00:26:43.960
They even covered our launch back in July. And a couple of weeks ago, they published an op-ed from
00:26:50.960
me. I think this was about two weeks ago now. Let me pull it up. I need a producer, guys. I need a
00:27:03.540
producer. It's too much work doing this show solo. Here we go. Tyree, what is a Canadian?
00:27:10.740
Canada is a nation of distinct people with a shared history and culture. Before we get into
00:27:16.840
anything uh i i have to uh uh the the one piece of criticism i have for the western standard is
00:27:23.960
what is this kind of ai slop image you couldn't find a nicer image of heritage canada i feel like
00:27:29.640
i feel like it's undermining my article to to put uh this picture at the top of it but we'll call
00:27:36.920
it we'll we'll just we'll just call it outrage bait uh we'll call it engagement bait for all
00:27:41.320
the people that were complaining about the the picture i didn't select it i didn't submit it
00:27:45.320
they imposed that on me um so i would like to register my dissatisfaction with mr feldbrand
00:27:52.360
with his editorial choice here on the image um but uh i do recommend people check this out um
00:28:01.320
i mean if if you guys have been following me you guys are going to be mostly familiar with these
00:28:05.560
talking points um the the main thrust of this is kind of a a response i actually wrote this
00:28:15.080
a couple months ago i didn't i didn't get around to publishing it until recently uh i was initially
00:28:20.520
inspired to write this when uh that the the without diminishment crew had come up i had
00:28:25.320
been in arguments with rupus and stuff about what a canadian is um there's in the in the post 2025
00:28:33.000
election period there it seemed there seems to be a kind of flexibility and interest in how we
00:28:39.080
should redefine the conservative movement but so often i see these kind of big c conservatives
0.99
00:28:46.120
and all they want to preserve conserve is trudeau pierre trudeau era multiculturalism liberalism
00:28:56.680
um no one can answer this question what is a canadian right they uh it's just anyone with
00:29:02.200
his citizenship is canadian canada's a nation of immigrants canada's a cultural mosaic and people
00:29:07.800
just don't understand the history so this is this is a very surface level piece i wouldn't say it's
00:29:12.440
a complete answer on canadian identity or anything but it does kind of give people an introduction
00:29:18.440
to the basic the foundation of canadian history um so we we run through uh you know all the greatest
00:29:30.280
hits canada is not a nation of immigrants we're a nation of settlers builders and explorers um
00:29:41.360
Immigrants and settlers are not the same thing.
1.00
00:29:44.060
Immigrants come to a country that's already built and take advantage of our wealth and
1.00
00:29:51.320
They risk everything to cross an open ocean, carve civilization out of a frontier, and
00:29:59.800
There's a fundamental disconnect between a settler and an immigrant.
00:30:03.020
So to just say Canada's a nation of immigrants is completely disingenuous and really just
00:30:07.040
props up the modern multiculturalist system. So we really need to reject this concept. That's why
00:30:12.320
I was so triggered last week with Paul Yevon Rogan when he was parroting that talking point.
00:30:18.520
Like that needs to be removed completely from public life. So I introduced this kind of dual
00:30:24.280
concept that I've talked about before, ethnic Canadians and heritage Canadians. I explained
00:30:32.040
kind of ethnogenesis of the scottish english irish french in the state lawrence valley over
00:30:37.560
hundreds of years that founded unique ethnic groups anglo and french canadians um and then
00:30:44.200
how we extend that definition to the more recent european settlers who helped settle northern
00:30:49.080
ontario and western canada starting in the 1900s who then integrated into canadian society
00:30:54.600
um but i i explained that this diversification is overstated that the majority of of settlers
00:31:01.860
in western canada were still of british stock of canadian stock of him of uh of anglo stock from
00:31:07.780
from the u.s um just just just you know pretty normie friendly uh arguments to remind people
00:31:16.400
that there is a part of canadian history before pierre trudeau era multiculturalism nation of
00:31:23.400
immigrants um you know all these things that the average person will just uh would just go to if
00:31:29.420
you ask them to describe what a Canadian is or what Canadian identity was right the first thing
0.79
00:31:33.400
that have come out of their mouth is uh tolerance and multiculturalism and all these things when
00:31:38.020
that's not really an accurate depiction of our story um so yeah and then I I run through the
00:31:50.860
numbers, you know, 1867 Canada was 97% Anglo French, about 2% native. Even in 1971, Canada was
00:32:01.720
72% Anglo French and 97% European, you know, just running through the numbers because while this
00:32:07.780
isn't everything, people don't know this part of our history. And it's an important to understand
00:32:13.420
this part of this foundation, especially because while we're having this broader discussion on
00:32:19.580
this uh adjustment in the conservative movement we can't just exist within this uh we can't just
00:32:26.480
conserve trudeau era multiculturalism trudeau era liberalism like we need to actually especially in
00:32:33.680
this era post trudeau jr where we where our country has been like so radically demographically
00:32:39.560
uh transformed like we we actually need to go back we can't just conserve the system we can't
00:32:45.860
just put it on pause. We need to reverse things. So while we're having this open conversation,
00:32:50.460
I think it's important that we remember that Canadian history didn't start in 1971. It actually
00:32:57.120
started before 1867, right? It goes back to the 1600s. We have to remember the entirety of our
00:33:04.820
history to really understand Canadian identity. So I knew publishing this would set people's
00:33:10.920
hair on fire. I expected, you know, pushback from the usual suspects, you know, the anti-hates,
00:33:17.100
the press progresses. They always, like, you know, I do complain about people not giving me
00:33:27.100
a platform, people not engaging in discussions, people not having me on for interviews. But the
00:33:31.000
reality is everyone that publishes my op-eds that has me on for their show, they get harassed by
00:33:37.040
left-wing um activists for weeks afterwards they get harassed by press progress like look it up
00:33:43.600
like juno news got a press progress hit piece after they gave me that interview uh the western
00:33:48.840
standard they got a press progress hit piece like they just get harassed by these these antifa
00:33:53.180
journalists um but what i didn't necessarily respond uh expect was uh uh uh responses from
00:34:02.000
people on the more conservative side, because we all know that I'm on a pretty big blacklist,
00:34:07.080
especially after this, a pretty big blacklist from the conservatives. Now, about a week after,
00:34:14.020
actually a few days after, I heard that someone was considering submitting a response piece,
00:34:20.620
and ultimately she did. So we got a response here from Dimpy Brar. To be honest, I had not heard of
00:34:29.740
this woman before this interaction um so i had to to look into her a little bit uh she is the
1.00
00:34:38.580
director of engagement of allies for a strong canada um so uh dimpy dimpy and i it's hard to
00:34:48.600
it's hard to keep a straight face it's a it's a pretty out there name dimpy and i were supposed
00:34:52.900
to actually have a debate on on the western standard pro uh platform on this topic um it
00:34:58.480
supposed to take place earlier this week actually but she ended up pulling out for some reason i
1.00
00:35:02.240
don't know why um but just like just like anyone who platforms me gets harassed by by uh anti-hate
00:35:10.160
type journalists um there's also there's all sorts of people on the conservative side of the
00:35:15.440
spectrum that are whispering in people's ears saying no you can't do that don't engage with
00:35:19.760
him don't give him a platform don't give him any attention nothing good can come of that
00:35:24.160
you'd think the conservatives you know who have been going on about the open market of ideas uh
00:35:30.400
free speech all this stuff uh they they they claim to hold these values so dearly but as soon
00:35:36.560
as it comes to nationalism as soon as it becomes to interacting with me oh it's all off limits we
00:35:41.120
can't have that we can't talk with them um so i'm not sure who pulled the plug on that but i was
00:35:46.000
rather disappointed i was looking forward to having a debate on this topic that being said
00:35:50.160
she still did submit a a uh op-ed responding before we get into that I think it's important
00:35:57.560
that we understand uh who Miss Brar is um let's let's pull it up so uh obviously you can tell
00:36:10.380
from her name she uh she is uh a lot of people were saying she's Indian apparently she's of
00:36:15.700
of pakistani descent she actually reached out to me and said can you tell everyone that i'm not
00:36:20.260
pakistani that i'm i'm i'm actually from here um and at least she claims she's she's she's from
00:36:28.500
here i started asking questions she got very evasive very quickly so i'm not sure i'm not
00:36:33.060
sure what the story is she wouldn't give me the details of what her parents moved here when she
0.80
00:36:37.060
moved here or anything like that but she says she says she's from here we'll say she's we'll
00:36:42.100
say she's trans canadian right she identifies as canadian um but to to get an understanding of
00:36:50.740
uh who she is i think we can look at the organization she refers represents here um so it says uh
00:37:01.140
allies for a strong canada so just like miss brauer i had not heard of her and i had not heard of
00:37:16.560
To get you a quick sense of what they stand for,
00:37:24.860
So these people, they claim to stand for Canadian values.
00:37:33.240
What we stand for, individual liberty, rule of law,
00:37:35.600
democracy, human rights, common sense. They say, allies for a strong Canada unites Canadians of
00:37:42.540
every background who share one belief, our freedoms and democracy and our national character
00:37:47.020
are worth fighting for. So they're basically this like civic nationalist group, I guess,
00:37:53.040
like I guess they're a similar kind of pressure advocacy group, nonpartisan group.
00:37:57.960
But we stand with communities targeted with hate, especially the Jewish community,
00:38:02.620
which today faces threats not seen in decades. So I guess they're like some sort of civnet group,
0.50
00:38:08.820
critical of immigration, but mostly focused on Muslim immigration. I feel like we see groups
00:38:13.780
like this all over the world. But like, I've never heard of them. I don't think they're
00:38:18.980
particularly impactful, but I guess they have more connections behind the scenes than someone
00:38:22.840
like me, an actual dissident. So let's, with that in mind, with Ms. Brar's identity in mind,
00:38:30.820
with her affiliations in mind let's look at her her big article so in the context of their
00:38:38.940
of her connection with uh these pro-zionist pro pro-israel groups the title is very obvious
00:38:45.860
blood and soil versus post-nationalism mrs kend is real identity uh immediately trying to like
00:38:52.180
associate me with with nazism even though she she tried to like make a big show about how she's not
00:38:57.480
calling me names or anything but like you start throwing around blood and soil and it's pretty
00:39:01.100
obvious what they're trying to do what the implication there is so this is a direct response
00:39:05.700
to my what is a canadian article and you can tell right from the start right from the dark start
00:39:11.120
that she's just seething like this is the type of thing where i'd where i'd write out an article or
00:39:17.060
an email or whatever and then maybe i like take a few minutes an hour or whatever then go back to
00:39:22.260
it's like i can't send this this is just me crashing out um i need to to have some more
00:39:28.900
substance i need to have some actual uh academic basis for this or else i shouldn't send it at all
00:39:34.500
uh but like look right through this you begin with a confession of decadence you do not understand
00:39:41.060
what is a canadian um no i this is an important question in this day and age and if you don't
00:39:45.940
think so, then you're in denial. A serious nation does not pose this question itself like a neurotic
00:39:52.740
teenager in front of a bathroom mirror, she says. A people that still knows its purpose does not
00:39:59.840
pause mid-stride to define itself. But that's exactly the problem that I completely agree with.
00:40:06.920
We don't understand who we are anymore. If you ask people this question, they can't answer it
00:40:11.880
Because they've been brainwashed for generations to believe that we don't have an identity, that it is just liberal multiculturalism, that to have any sort of actual identity to culture history is racist and unacceptable.
00:40:31.140
this so but just like she's going on here like she's trying to imply that i'm some sort of
00:40:37.000
neurotic teenage girl as if i don't like i can't grapple with these things in a non-emotional way
00:40:42.600
uh i find it's quite funny but like i do agree with her in a sense like uh she she's trying to
00:40:49.580
pretend that there's no issue but the issue the the thing is there is very much an issue and it
00:40:53.680
doesn't help to be in denial about it it lives out an answer so obvious that only the bored and
00:41:00.540
ruined. I'm so bored and ruined, guys. Needed explained. The very fact that you must ask and
00:41:06.700
think yourself profound for doing so is a symptom of decline, not a cure. And again, I agree. This
00:41:13.460
is a symptom of decline. Canada is in decline. We need to have these substantive conversations
00:41:19.760
in order to get Canada back on track. So a lot of this, I think, this is why I wish we could
00:41:25.400
have had a debate. I think we actually would see eye to eye on a lot of things. But she's
00:41:30.500
getting very like she's she's claiming that i'm the kind of emotional one when she's clearly having
00:41:36.620
a an issue here and this comes back to the kind of central issue in a lot of these conversations
00:41:43.160
about identity p everyone that kind of so many people that push back on me it's because they
00:41:49.040
need to have a definition of canadian identity that includes them or their spouse or their family
00:41:56.520
so often when you have people that are like, Miss Brar needs to have a definition of Canadian
00:42:04.760
identity that includes her. And since I put forward one that centralizes around ethnicity
00:42:10.840
that discludes her, she's just having this crash out, seethe about how I'm emotional and bored and
00:42:18.900
ruined and all these unnecessary things when actually having a conversation of substance.
00:42:23.780
and the same is happens for so many of my critics like even even to go with polyev like he he needs
00:42:30.500
to put forward this nation of immigrant stuff because you know his children are only half
00:42:34.560
canadian his wife is a is a refugee or whatnot uh he wants to have a definition of canadian that
00:42:41.260
includes his wife um and so many of my critics are like this they they all seem to have significant
00:42:46.880
others who are who are immigrants um or second generation immigrants or whatnot so they're
00:42:52.260
personally offended and need to find a definition that includes them and I find this kind of funny
00:42:56.460
because obviously as we talked about before like I'm not the paragon of ethnic purity like even I
00:43:01.800
don't fit my definition of heritage Canadian fully I only myself am half heritage Canadian
00:43:08.440
so I don't know why I'm the only one that that is able to come forward and comfortably talk about
00:43:16.400
these things everyone else seems to to get so wrapped up in their own personal but like let's
00:43:21.040
be objective about these things like this is canadian history my background doesn't change
00:43:25.900
canadian history your background doesn't change canadian history canadian history is what it is
00:43:30.880
we live there there is a kind of objective truth here that we can base these conversations around
00:43:37.260
um let's go back to to this worse even your the the question is wrong she she says my question
0.95
00:43:47.340
is wrong your essay is not about what it what is canadian but who is canadian it is a census
00:43:55.260
disguised as philosophy the genuine question what is a canadian presupposes a prior and more
00:44:00.220
fundamental question what is canada but again she misses the point like my position is that canada
00:44:07.740
is a nation and a nation in the direct sense of the word not to use it as a synonym for country
00:44:14.060
or state or whatnot as it often is misused a nation is a people a distinct people with a
00:44:20.540
unique shared history and culture so innately what is a canadian what is canada who is canada
00:44:30.760
who is a canadian these are all the same thing once you accept that canada is a nation that
00:44:35.880
canada is a people these these questions are interchangeable this is this is what she does
00:44:40.940
not seem to understand um so much of this like i i do recommend people there's three articles here
00:44:50.460
there's mine and then there's uh dimpy's response dimpy's response and then there's another one
00:44:56.400
responding to her uh from a friend of mine uh so i do recommend people read all of this i won't go
00:45:01.580
through the whole thing because it would take forever um but so much of her article is is
00:45:06.840
honestly hard to read like her thesis is not very clear she's she's so critical of my essay but she
00:45:12.620
she doesn't write very effectively um she uses very verbose unnecessarily complicated language
00:45:19.520
to mask that she doesn't have really significant substance to offer um kind of distracts from the
00:45:27.600
point and really like i i get through this whole thing and i don't really know what her answer to
00:45:32.080
the question is, what is the Canadian? I don't really know what her policy priorities, what her
00:45:39.100
solution to the problem is. I don't really know where she's going with it. I'll take my guess
00:45:45.500
once we get towards the end, but I don't really know what she's getting at. She goes, the founder
00:45:51.440
does not swing an ax. He articulates principles. Mine is the radical position, unfashionable to
00:45:57.480
left and the right our founders were right your position is merely the ethicized parody of the
00:46:03.420
very leftism you claim to oppose blood soil and stock in place of identity equity and gender
00:46:09.840
same rejection of principle different totem so she's taking the you're woke right type argument
00:46:15.320
uh that you're the left you're just like the left blah blah blah and like to be honest i don't
00:46:20.880
really oppose to uh like i do criticize leftists but they're not my main argument like i'm i'm
00:46:26.060
focused on the establishment, and I'm only focused on multiculturalism, and I'm focused on mass
00:46:30.400
immigration. That's what I criticize. I don't care left, right. I'm not about that divide. I'm a
00:46:35.480
nationalist. I see myself operating on a completely different axis than the traditional left, right
00:46:40.540
spectrum. So she invokes the founder. So who is she talking about? Is she talking about,
00:46:49.660
uh is she talking about john a is she talking about is she talking about any of these guys
00:46:56.920
john a george brown george etienne cartier uh charles tupper darcy mcgee who do you guys
00:47:03.780
think she's talking about weirdly enough she's talking about lord durham and the durham report
00:47:12.060
to see this you would have to look at our true founding our true founding guys
00:47:18.580
It's not, you know, when Jacques Cartier discovered Canada.
00:47:26.600
It's not when Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec City.
00:47:30.880
It's not when Sir John A. Macdonald founded, established Canada Confederation.
00:47:40.660
It's not even when Pierre Trudeau repatriated the Constitution.
00:47:45.820
Our true founding, according to Ms. Dimpy Brar, is the Durham Report of 1839.
00:47:54.700
It's the key text, she says. Durham did not discover a harmonious heritage Canada. He found
00:47:59.800
two nations warring in the bosom of a single state, French Catholic, English Protestant,
00:48:04.180
a struggle not of principles, but of race. We'll get back to this in the next article. Remember
00:48:08.900
this line. That condition, which he regarded as intolerable, is precisely what you propose to
00:48:14.380
restore. He wanted to abolish race as a political principle. You want to enthrone it. I won't touch
00:48:19.340
on this now just because we'll get to it in the next article. Your derision of values like
00:48:25.140
tolerance and equality simply show that you have swallowed the left's caricature of liberalism.
00:48:30.900
No, it shows that I know that values alone are not enough to enforce a national identity,
00:48:38.520
which is only becoming more obvious in this multi-ethnic, multiracial society that we've
00:48:44.000
created. You attack what they say liberalism is, not actually what it's for. We're the real
00:48:52.480
classical liberals. You sneer at ideas as if it were a hard-headed realist, but your heritage
0.71
00:48:58.100
Canadian itself is an idea. It's not an idea. It's a people. It's flesh and bone. It's not just
00:49:04.220
an idea like liberalism is. The moment we move from counting to justifying from who to what
00:49:10.680
and why we are in the realm of political philosophy this is territory you ought to dread
00:49:15.560
I don't dread political philosophy I find it kind of boring to be to be honest but I've done my
00:49:21.080
readings I did my readings I read you know the republic and Aristotle's politics and all that
00:49:28.300
I've done all that I just don't I believe that politics is more than just philosophy I believe
00:49:33.280
it is a realm of action in men. I believe it's more than just ideas. So is there anything else
00:49:44.580
to bring up in this? Because she, yeah, there's some funny stuff towards the end, but basically
00:49:50.760
she invokes Lord Durham's report, which most people won't be familiar with, but it is kind
00:49:56.320
of a precursor to confederation that found two main things that canada needed to form his own
00:50:03.760
our own responsible government you know a semi-autonomous body within colonial the british
00:50:08.520
colony um to manage our own affairs and two that the english-french divide was dysfunctional and
00:50:16.260
really that the french needed to be wiped out and assimilated so and she puts this forward
00:50:21.600
as the foundational text as if this was how Canada was founded, which is quite ironic and
00:50:30.260
really displays a poor understanding of Canadian history because this report was rejected. It was
00:50:37.300
rejected by the Tories in Upper Canada who wanted to remain loyal to the crown. It was rejected by
00:50:42.600
French Canadians who didn't want to be assimilated into English Canada. It was rejected by all parties.
00:50:48.900
when johnny mcdonald and and the fathers of confederation most majorly george etienne
00:50:56.180
cartier collaborated to found canada it was a compromise between english in and french canada
00:51:05.020
in order to resist the pressures of america in order to reject the radical liberal experiment
00:51:12.680
of america so dimpy is trying to put forward this concept of canada that is classically liberal
00:51:21.120
and unicultural she says and a bastion i've watched some of her other content her some of
00:51:28.740
her interviews and stuff when i was preparing for a debate and she she's this proponent of western
00:51:33.380
civilization and she really just seems to see canada as a bastion of western civilization a
00:51:39.180
bastion of liberalism and that's just not what canada is like obviously we are a part of western
00:51:44.380
civilization but we have a unique identity within that society i don't want to just become some sort
00:51:50.380
of pan-western society i want to preserve canada and canadian identity and the reality of that is
00:51:58.380
we are skeptical of liberalism we are skeptical of american influence we're skeptical of our role
00:52:05.020
within that Western American empire and we've actively made our whole society around resisting
00:52:11.340
those pressures. So to just say that, to just base this like liberal pan-Western civilization
00:52:17.680
kind of concept that she has on the Durham report, which was rejected at the time and our leaders
00:52:24.740
then forged a new and unique path that would create Canada and Canadian identity, just shows
00:52:31.020
that she doesn't understand the country very well this whole article is very much that that meme
00:52:36.500
where it's like let me let me uh explain your identity and how it includes me like she's made
00:52:44.540
this liberal pan-western society because she thinks that's how she can fit into it when the
00:52:50.540
reality is and like i'm not saying that no immigrants can fit into canadian society but
00:52:54.740
you have you can't come here and try and reinvent canadian society and then that's how you fit into
00:53:00.540
it you have to accept our history and our identity and be subservient to it not try and reinvent it
00:53:09.380
to include yourself that's that's completely uh like uh oxymoronic it's completely counterintuitive
00:53:15.820
that doesn't make any sense um let's see if there's anything else to to touch on in this article
00:53:22.980
um and again like she brings up she constantly brings up the left and islam like you can so
0.99
00:53:29.780
tell that her roots are very zionist very uh pro-israel that the real problem in the threat
0.50
00:53:35.500
to western civilization is when our judeo-christian values is islam um i'm sure we could uh i'm sure
0.72
00:53:42.700
she would agree with me on on re-migrating a lot of muslim immigrants but uh she probably
1.00
00:53:46.560
disagree with me on on re-migrating indians and pakistanis and whatnot um uh it does not smile
0.99
00:53:55.600
indulgently as doctrines of tonight natural rights multiculturalism is not an extension of our
00:54:00.160
founding like this is what i mean like it's multiculturalism is not an extension of our
00:54:04.480
founding it is an explicit repudiation like there's so many lines that she has in here that's
00:54:08.800
like i completely agree it's one i could have wrote that like i might tweak that tomorrow
00:54:14.000
i'm just gonna start coffee and pasting totally uh ripping off content from her article that i
00:54:18.960
agree with because this is this is a great line it's i completely agree um but uh otherwise
00:54:26.160
there's so many things that i have to to disagree with like here we go you however retreat to the
00:54:32.640
birth and blood but birth has never been sufficient for citizenship in a dignified regime citizenship
00:54:38.320
is a moral and intellectual status no it's a legal status take your own heritage canadians
00:54:43.280
you proudly quote from the 1971 polling showing that a majority uh opposed mass immigration and
00:54:49.180
multiculturalism then you avert your eyes from the obvious pierre triot was re-elected three
00:54:53.320
times afterwards by that very stock your beloved blood voted to abolish your the principles you
00:54:58.960
claim it embodies the heritage you worship is the same majority that surrendered the country to the
0.99
00:55:03.540
very post-national order you condemn your romance with stock collapsed the second you look at the
00:55:07.880
ballot and this is like this weird notion that these people put forward they think that i like
00:55:13.160
have to agree with everyone that's of the same stock as me and that people are inherently right
00:55:17.900
just because that they're the right race or something and that's just not how I think about
00:55:22.340
things like I think that culture and ethnicity are intimately tied and that as you transform the
00:55:31.040
the uh ethnic stock of a society you transform the country into something else and
0.99
00:55:36.940
that there is an inherent beauty to the nation of a chain of ancestries, a family of families,
00:55:46.060
descendants passing on a country to each other. If we change and adapt through that time,
00:55:51.600
that's our own decision. But to be completely replaced by a new stock is absurd and radical.
00:55:59.580
And to just say that, oh, well, Trudeau was reelected kind of obfuscates from the political
00:56:04.900
situation like um you have to look at the the elections that led to to trudeau being elected
00:56:12.260
like uh he was faced like the the conservative party the the progressive conservative party at
00:56:17.220
the time was completely lost in the woods post dieffen baker right they were led by bob stanfield
00:56:23.060
who was this um i think he was the former premier of nova scotia who was not charismatic like
00:56:29.300
Like Pierre Trudeau had a personality cult, right?
00:56:56.300
and then of course the the the consequences of mass migration even when they were having these
00:57:04.580
more liberal notions they never they never conceived of a million people a year coming
00:57:10.620
into this country they never people that voted for Trudeau would not we're not voting for Trudeau
00:57:17.980
to turn Brampton 80 percent Indian like that's not what anyone had in mind and if they did that's
00:57:25.180
not they wouldn't have voted for him um so to just say yes they were against immigration but
00:57:31.860
they were pro-immigration because they voted for trudeau like that's just not how elections work
00:57:36.640
like we have polling on the subject we know people's opinions on that elections are much
0.88
00:57:42.780
more complicated than single issues and then again she goes consider the ugliest example the white
0.86
00:57:51.060
woman who votes reliably for parties and policies that dissolve our borders, invert our moral
1.00
00:57:56.220
hierarchies, and despise our history. Is she more Canadian by sheer accident of birth than the man
0.92
00:58:02.040
who earnestly embraces natural rights and the supremacy of the Canadian regime? Yes, she is more
00:58:08.780
Canadian than the immigrant, even if I disagree with her values. She's lived here intergenerationally.
00:58:15.620
that's what defines what a canadian is it's not just about values values are a component of it
00:58:22.100
they're a result of our history they're a result of how we've learned to live in this environment
00:58:30.180
um they're a result of our our religious history of all these things but to just like it's such a
0.96
00:58:38.020
stupid question if you say yes you have to openly abandon the founding in favor of tribal loyalty
0.96
00:58:44.980
That is not conservatism. It's regression. That's the most chat GPT ass line. That is not
1.00
00:58:50.440
conservatism. It is regression. This is why I suggested that she was using AI to write her
00:58:56.240
stuff. But it's not, this is nationalism. Like to recognize that Canada is a nation that we have
00:59:04.600
an ancestral lineage. It's not, and I'm not a conservatism. I'm not a conservative. Like I
00:59:09.960
keep saying this. I'm a nationalist. I'm not a liberal. I'm not a conservative. I'm a nationalist.
00:59:14.100
It's that simple. Our founders did not believe in multiculturalism. They believed in a uniculture
0.78
00:59:20.760
rooted in principle. Like this is just not true. This is what I was saying about the Durham report
00:59:27.040
and stuff. We were never a uniculture. We were a proud bicultural society, a compromise between
00:59:33.280
English and French in resistance of American expansion and liberalism. We weren't this
00:59:39.680
liberal uniculture like she's putting forward um statecraft is so craft like it's all these
0.73
00:59:47.420
lines that it's like this is so chat gpt um this again this is another baseline
00:59:59.220
multiculturalism was not an evolution it was a revolution against the founding a descent into
0.99
01:00:05.360
nihilism in which no way of life may be judged by a higher standard only by its power mike
01:00:11.040
dropped from dimpy that's a good one uh like she has so many good lines in here where we agree and
0.72
01:00:17.600
then she just like draws the most retarded conclusions it's it's it's really a like a
0.93
01:00:23.840
snap back and forth it's a it's a jarring ride uh uh you the islam is the gender car
1.00
01:00:32.240
commissars the race theorists or each assert its own supremacy none contends a standard above
01:00:38.880
itself that condition is not peace it is pre-political war like they're another chat gpt
01:00:44.720
ass line it's not peace it's pre-political war the very war of races and sex that durham believed
01:00:52.480
our liberal founding was meant to overcome it's just ahistoric
01:00:56.720
and then she accuses me of putting forward a racial hierarchy which is again not what I do
01:01:05.120
it's not about one race being better than the other it's it's about Canada having a common
01:01:11.960
ethnic style and it's not saying that Canadians should have more rights than immigrants it's not
01:01:16.520
saying that everyone who's not a heritage Canadian needs to be deported that's not what we advance
01:01:21.260
but we do need to after generations of post-nationalism and being dishonest about
01:01:26.880
Canada's identity we do need to be very clear and we need to in in this society that's become
01:01:34.520
where demographic change is driving all the major problems in our society we need to get
0.98
01:01:39.440
comfortable about having conversations that have ethnicity as a component which which has been
01:01:44.080
kind of verboten forbidden throughout my life at least and probably beyond that but we need to kind
01:01:49.820
to get over that kind of we need to slay that sacred cow and have more obvious honest conversations
0.98
01:01:54.940
um so that's the that's the that's that's a summary of her piece you can go and read it if
01:02:05.000
you want it in its totality um i will say that i as i was saying before i don't really know what
01:02:12.100
she's proposing she's just kind of seething about my my essay she doesn't seem to have
01:02:17.300
a significant proposal of her own. If I'm reading between the lines, what I kind of
01:02:22.060
take away is that she is promoting a sort of Singaporean style model where we need to have
0.84
01:02:30.300
kind of an authoritarian state to impose liberalism on a multi-ethnic population.
01:02:39.620
I think that's a very un-Canadian mindset. I think that's a very Asian mindset
1.00
01:02:43.340
to how to approach this situation um and to use the durham report as the the foundation of canadian
01:02:54.780
society it just demonstrates a very poor understanding of of our history because it
01:03:00.140
was rejected then it should be rejected now what we need to do is understand our bicultural roots
01:03:05.340
understand the the ethnogenesis understand uh canadian identity understand ethnocultural
01:03:13.020
identity um we need to understand all of these components and and really if we want to preserve
01:03:18.780
canadian society which is in many ways liberal like uh western western society uh our roots
01:03:26.100
back to to england and france like there is a streak of liberalism within that but we always
01:03:32.080
have had a sort of ordered liberty where there is reasonable limitations to that so to just
01:03:39.000
propose this very like like liberal statist kind of solution this imposition of a uniculture that's
01:03:47.440
never been is just very anti-canadian um i decided i i thought it wouldn't be best for me to respond
01:03:56.280
to this um because i think the most offensive part of this is that she doesn't seem to understand
01:04:04.460
the French fact in Canada which is really a huge part of Canadian identity and what makes us unique
01:04:09.560
and what makes us not America that's negotiation with the French so I reached out to my my friend
01:04:15.940
Jean-Philippe Warren to write a response from a more Quebecois perspective given that the central
01:04:25.300
foundation of her piece was this Durham report which is just very anti-Quebec so again I would
1.00
01:04:33.200
recommend checking this out as well. I'll throw this up. Warren, Canada's real origin story,
01:04:40.980
two nations, one reluctant deal. This is a great piece. It's a bit shorter and it goes over the
01:04:46.720
history of the situation. It breaks down the history of the Durham report and Canadian history,
01:04:53.420
the negotiation between Fontaine and Baldwin, the two leaders who managed one of our earliest
01:05:01.840
responsible government. I do want to touch on some of the best lines. I need a drink.
01:05:17.360
yeah exactly so so he explains that the durham report sought to to assimilate
01:05:46.680
french canada and english canada um the that it wasn't received well in in the whole history behind
01:05:54.920
it um here i mentioned we'd come back to this line so in response to this concept conflict
01:06:07.060
you recommended two major measures the the union of upper and lower canada and the introduction
01:06:12.040
of the responsible government a system of government central to the westminster model
01:06:15.780
in which the executive is accountable to an elected legislature and must retain its confidence
01:06:21.400
to remain in office by gradually placing French Canadians, a people with no history and no
1.00
01:06:26.800
literature, according to Lord Durham, as he wrote, in a position of political and demographic minority.
01:06:33.060
He hoped they would assimilate into Anglo-Canadian society. Lord Durham did not seek to abolish race
01:06:38.340
as a political principle. Rather, he aimed to erase one of the founding peoples of Canada as a
01:06:43.960
distinct political force. The British government adopted the Union, but refused at first to
01:06:48.940
implement the responsible government. So again, Dimpey is quoting the Durham report as if he
01:06:56.420
wants to abolish race as a principle, but that's literally a misreading of the text and of the
01:07:01.400
history. They recognized race. They just saw it as a problem that needed to be expunged to
01:07:09.560
assimilation um i the end of this article is just beautiful so this kind of rebukes um
01:07:25.640
bras thesis very clearly the foundation of canada was not laid in the durham report nor
01:07:31.420
in the abstract liberal theories bar bar suggests it was built through pragmatic
01:07:35.220
conservative compromises rooted in reality of its two founding peoples, French and British,
01:07:39.920
and the pre-confederation provinces. La Fontaine and Baldwin demonstrated that French Canadians
01:07:45.900
could survive by working with British institutions. Later, Macdonald and Cartier
01:07:50.160
showed that the lasting stability required alliances that recognized both nations and
01:07:56.280
provinces assuring the political power and responsibility were shared between them. From
01:08:00.240
the co-leadership of the province to the federal structures of confederation, the Canadian project
01:08:11.040
majoritarian, expansionist model of the United States.
01:08:17.780
but to protect and preserve the founding nations
01:08:34.040
but a pragmatic statecraft that safeguarded nationhood practice uh particularly in the eyes
01:08:39.840
of french canadian nation and aimed to ensure a stable federation this pact between nations and
01:08:44.620
provinces has faded over the decades but it should remain at the heart of canadian identity
01:08:48.440
a compromise that valued order continuity and preservation of its founding people above all
01:08:53.840
it was an erosion of this pact that gave rise to french canadian resentment to quebec's desire
01:08:58.180
for independence but that is another discussion so just a beautiful piece there by warren a much
01:09:04.180
more um intellectually honest historically accurate piece um that shows canada's unique
01:09:12.740
identity that compromise between those nations you can even include the um the first nations in
01:09:18.900
that as well but mainly the english and the french um that our our our founding thrust was
01:09:26.260
to preserve our nations to preserve our unique culture in the face of liberalism in this face
01:09:32.020
of americanism uh not some sort of pan-western identity that uniculture that that brar is
01:09:39.060
putting forward so i thought that was interesting to see both the um the back and forth there uh
01:09:46.500
while i disagree with brar with dimpy completely or not completely obviously there was a few good
01:09:52.980
lines that i think we we agree with but i i disagree with the thrust of her argument i do
01:09:57.780
appreciate that she chose to engage these are great opportunities for us i appreciate the
01:10:02.260
western standard publishing this and i even though i disagree with a lot i appreciate them
01:10:07.940
publishing her response and facilitating that debate i think these are very important discussions
01:10:12.420
to have and a big up to derek fildebrand and the western standard for for facilitating those
01:10:16.580
discussions um but this is uh this is the real result like people can come to argue with us and
01:10:25.380
the people that whisper behind the scenes try and say oh they're gonna be mean to you they're
01:10:29.540
gonna be racist and yes there might be some anons that post that that meme of the let me let me
01:10:35.860
explain your culture and how it includes me type thing there might be some harsh words from anons
01:10:40.180
on the internet that's the internet get used to it um but really the risk of interacting with us is
01:10:45.940
you're going to lose every debate because you don't understand Canadian society. You don't
01:10:50.160
understand Canadian nationalism and you don't understand the solutions to 2026 Canada. So
01:10:58.260
that's the op-ed wars. That's what I wanted to cover. I hope that wasn't boring. I hope I'm not
01:11:06.120
just crashing out over these things. I thought it was an interesting and fruitful debate and I would
01:11:13.820
encourage everyone to read the um those op-eds in their in their fullness um now what else did i want
01:11:24.300
to talk about where should we start um so here's a here's a we won't stick on this one for too long
01:11:46.860
So to be honest, people might give me a hard time for this.
01:12:01.520
working as a soccer coach for my volunteer hours in high school,
01:12:11.240
I was the captain of my high school soccer team.
01:12:26.620
It's probably my hobby that's least consistent with my worldview, with my political view.
01:12:33.100
But I do think that the upcoming World Cup is going to be a big opportunity for us to mainstream
01:12:37.980
difficult conversations on national identity and ethnicity so there was a there was a post here
01:12:45.900
that went viral today here we go it's so small there we go so it's not happening it's just a
01:12:57.160
conspiracy theory and this is the 1984 Canadian team the the last time we made it to the world
01:13:04.880
cup um and this is the 2025 team so this is just their you know a snapshot of the great replacement
01:13:12.960
um the the radical change that we've seen over the last 40 years and then this guy retweets it
01:13:19.040
we finally made the world cup consecutively and this is what we complain about um and i can't
01:13:24.400
help but respond hard to be proud of this accomplishment when there are few acts so few
01:13:28.320
actual canadians on this team and we didn't even qualify we we qualified automatically because we
01:13:33.200
we're hosting the world cup um so this i i got a lot of hate for this i got a lot of people
01:13:39.760
seething at me um in the replies calling me racist uh all this stuff as you would expect
01:13:46.600
um but this is like this this is the reality of the situation like i think i think canadians
01:13:53.120
would be a lot more excited about this team if they were actual canadian representatives on this
01:13:58.420
team um and while like i do find it entertaining to watch this team i i think net like fifa in
01:14:07.360
national soccer rules are just dysfunctional uh like even beyond mass immigration like they they
01:14:14.000
they just allow people to play for countries if their grandparents had citizenship like it's it's
01:14:19.200
just way too loose and it's enabled like it's basically that national soccer teams have become
01:14:24.940
basically club teams nowadays and it does take away the point of a national competition like
01:14:31.100
i i want to see different nations nations peoples competing against each other um i think there's a
01:14:38.540
lot more beauty in in that having you know people that are different heights and sizes and and uh
01:14:44.540
and and so on um with different cultures and different styles of play now it's all globalized
01:14:50.860
it's all a bunch of, you know, Africans playing against each other, representing different
1.00
01:14:55.500
countries. But as, as came to host the National, the World Cup this year, it kind of forces
01:15:02.940
conversations about nationalism and identity into the mainstream, right? You have countries
01:15:07.840
competing with each other. It's, it's, it's inherently a clash of nationalities. And
0.73
01:15:14.400
particularly in canada usually when it's a world cup people kind of support you know they support
01:15:22.080
random countries that they may be fans of often they they end up supporting uh you know countries
01:15:30.400
that are in line with their ancestors their ethnic heritage you know you have the italians and
01:15:35.520
vaughn and stuff supporting the italian team and and so on um but now that canada is in the world
01:15:41.840
cup there's this there's this kind of central question it's like are you going to support
01:15:44.720
canada or are you going to support italy or whatever and it kind of pushes these con
01:15:50.480
conversations about ethnicity all of a sudden you'd have this this you know italian canadian um
01:15:57.680
uh multi-generation uh immigrants or whatnot and people are saying well you're italian now
01:16:04.560
now these conversations where most of the time people will be like oh you can't question someone's
01:16:09.040
canadianness based off of their their their immigration their their relatives so on all of a
01:16:14.560
sudden people are very accepting of being italian or or whatnot uh i keep using italians as an
01:16:20.880
example but it's any any teams from around the world it can be african teams it could be
01:16:25.520
european teams or whatnot um so it just forces these conversations about identity and heritage
01:16:31.280
and all these things into into the into the mainstream zeitgeist so i do think this is
01:16:35.360
going to be a big opportunity for nationalist accounts to start getting um more active into
01:16:41.200
these conversations and and pushing the zeitgeist so uh i i'll be preparing if i don't get disavowed
01:16:47.360
by came to soccer during the world cup it'll be a failure um but we're gonna have important
01:16:52.000
conversations about heritage and identity uh during the world cup um so uh do watch out for that
01:16:59.760
um yeah just a little side topic there based off of people um giving me on on twitter today
01:17:10.240
uh and uh the last thing i want to touch on after this we'll we'll open up the floor and
01:17:18.480
i'll take some questions um for 15 20 minutes or something this stream's already going really long
01:17:23.200
um but I do know how to talk about um the kind of controversy this is this is I don't know if
01:17:31.240
it's just my feed but this is um uh this might just be my feed this might be everyone's feed
01:17:38.780
I'm not sure but a big topic of discussion in the last 24 hours has been Harry Potter
01:17:44.820
um the the new uh hbo series released their first teaser trailer uh for this new harry potter series
01:17:53.960
that's coming up and my whole feed is people debating you know color grading and and all
01:17:59.540
these things um and to be honest i have to say i am a big harry potter fan again you guys might
01:18:06.980
find me cringe you might find me unk or whatever i am a zillennial i grew up with the harry potter
01:18:13.700
books i've loved them my whole life i've seen the movies and read the books countless times
01:18:18.100
um so it is it is a hobby of mine i do think i'm pretty well informed on the series but i think the
01:18:25.140
biggest um point of controversy has been the casting of severus snape um so all of you will
01:18:36.180
be familiar with alan rickman's performance uh and of uh
01:18:43.700
um but uh here we go there's here's severus safe obviously they did the the race mixed
0.98
01:18:52.100
the race swapped severus snape black snape um has been a central uh point of controversy recently
01:19:00.680
um and i thought this would be a fun jumping off point to talk a bit about harry potter because
01:19:07.660
they can't help but insert like they they just had to because the reality is there is
01:19:16.900
like racial black characters in harry potter and like it is a story set in you know 1990s 1980s
01:19:26.100
britain which was a white majority country it was 90 percent white in 1980 the vast majority
01:19:34.300
of the characters should be white if we're being honest about history and society um and like there
0.88
01:19:42.660
are characters dean thomas lee jordan angelina johnson there are many black characters in harry
01:19:50.300
potter but they've had to insert a racialized character into the the more main cast um and they
01:19:58.720
decided to do so with severus snape which is just so silly because i mean not only is snape's
01:20:05.800
appearance very frequently um mentioned by the author by jk rowling as very pasty sallow hooked
01:20:15.900
nose all these characteristics that uh long greasy straight hair all characteristics that this person
01:20:23.180
regardless of his race just doesn't have he doesn't have the hooked nose he doesn't have the
0.99
01:20:26.880
sour skin he doesn't have the long uh greasy hair he has dreads snape with dreads it's fucking
0.99
01:20:32.360
it's ridiculous um and really uh if you were going to race swap any character i think snape
0.98
01:20:40.440
is actually one of the worst choices um because like he it does warp his story uh if you're
01:20:49.220
familiar and i maybe i'm getting too in the weeds here i hope you guys uh enjoy harry potter
01:20:56.480
are familiar with harry potter um but like snape's whole story is i mean he gets bullied by
01:21:05.440
the marauders harry's uh father and his friend group he pines for harry's mother uh lily evans
01:21:12.500
and by race swapping him like you introduce this whole new narrative which which makes it more
01:21:18.920
about race. Like he's, all of a sudden he's getting, like Harry is distrustful of his one
01:21:27.280
black teacher who he thinks is an evil criminal. All of a sudden the marauders are bullying the
0.98
01:21:35.480
black kid and holding him upside down. Like it's almost like he's being lynched. All of a sudden
0.98
01:21:43.240
this black kid like Snape is basically an incel right like he's he's pining for this white woman
0.99
01:21:50.180
and when she rejects him he becomes a wizard supremacist like it just warps the whole story
01:21:56.140
around Snape's racial identity which really just transforms the the narrative of the story which
01:22:02.060
is unfortunate and to be if we're being honest like Harry Potter is an interesting allegory but
01:22:10.020
it like the the wizarding muggle divide is more about uh class and aristocracy than it is about
01:22:21.920
race it's not really an allegory for race um and uh the overall story is really a battle between
01:22:32.580
it is really an allegory for liberalism versus nationalism right like voldemort and the dark
01:22:41.180
side are literally uh you know pure blood like they believe in the continuity of wizards they
01:22:49.580
believe in like they are basically nationalists wizard nationalists and dumbledore and the good
01:22:59.140
side are these kind of radical liberal multicultural uh folks who believe in extending more rights to
01:23:09.620
house elves and and other other um species and uh include extending and accepting uh muggles borns
1.00
01:23:20.660
and half uh half bloods and all these things like it really is a and it really is a meta-political
01:23:28.100
struggle between a liberal influencer Dumbledore and a nationalist influencer Voldemort struggling
01:23:36.240
outside of the government where they both pressure the government to to come to their ways
01:23:42.360
it the whole thing is an allegory for liberalism and nationalism
01:23:46.680
and there are allegories for races like the the thing is like
01:23:53.500
you know your your typical normie liberal won't might not like it but like the allegories in
01:23:59.840
harry potter for the different races are different species right you have the goblins you have the
01:24:03.940
house elves you have the giants you have uh you even have the werewolves like these are actually
01:24:08.780
the different uh uh racial comparisons right and you have characters like umbridge who who don't
01:24:16.260
believe in have extending rights to you know half breeds like giants and and so on and they're
01:24:21.860
they're critical of that so like you do already have these racial components these racial
01:24:26.360
allegories it's just not spelled out for you it's just not directly about skin color and stuff like
01:24:30.940
this but the allegories there have always existed right Hermione has this whole SJW arc where
01:24:39.960
where she's um where she's trying to uh extend rights to house selves and get them paid and
1.00
01:24:49.920
make sure they're not slaves and stuff like there are these progressive narratives through harry
01:24:55.000
potter you don't need to transform and insert these race swaps to to have them they're already
01:25:00.420
there uh lupin and the werewolves like this is all an allegory for for homosexuality and
0.99
01:25:06.480
in the aids epidemic at the time uh like he's literally turned into a werewolf by a uh by a
01:25:13.520
predator who targets children to try to convert them into his his way of life like all of these
01:25:20.960
progressive notions about homosexuality and about race about uh about class all of them already
01:25:28.760
exist within harry potter and it's really disappointing that they're they're changing
01:25:32.600
the story and they're they're going to add these new narratives and distract and just kind of hit
01:25:37.600
you over the head with things when they already have these kind of nuanced narratives existing
01:25:42.620
throughout the the story um so i'm disappointed to see this i like i i am looking forward to it
01:25:50.460
i'm big harry potter fan i'm going to watch the shows um but i i am rather disappointed to see
01:25:57.020
them especially this change with snape like i i really don't mind uh uh uh the harry the hermione
01:26:05.420
change quite as much as the snape one i don't think that changes the story quite as much but
01:26:10.640
again now you're going to have malfoy calling her a mudblood and instead of this being about
01:26:16.340
liberalism nationalism this this kind of divide it's just going to be about race again and it's
01:26:23.580
just it transforms the the story in unnecessary ways i'm i'm i'm disappointed to see it um so
01:26:31.760
that's my that's my uh rant about uh harry potter um i don't know if it's weird to go into that
01:26:39.540
stuff i know it's uh i know it's not my normal content on immigration uh but i do think like
01:26:46.460
this is this is where the mainstream zeitgeist is right it's about it is talking about this show
01:26:52.040
and i do think it's good to to have these conversations about harry potter uh because
01:26:58.120
it does introduce maybe a more normie audience to these concepts and i don't know if you guys
01:27:03.500
would be interested in going into that more i could do a whole series on just harry potter
01:27:07.860
and breaking down these allegories about nationalism
01:27:11.900
and all the different details that you find throughout the book,
01:27:25.960
I mean, many people are critical of J.K. Rowling and her magic system,
01:27:33.020
And there's many potholes in the series and stuff like this.
01:27:35.460
I really think it was most popular because it was a potent allegory for the conquering
01:27:42.020
of liberalism above nationalism in the post-war period released right as kind of liberalism
01:27:51.560
was peaking before it started to collapse like we're living through now.
01:27:56.460
So I really think that's what, whether people realize it or not, I really think that's why
01:28:01.520
it was so popular because it kind of normalized this liberal mythology into a more mythological
01:28:07.320
setting um so uh i like harry potter uh but i read it very differently than most people do
01:28:16.840
um with all that out of the way uh please start dropping your questions in uh in the chat uh uh
01:28:24.120
we can talk about harry potter we can talk about immigration whatever whatever you guys want to
01:28:29.240
talk about uh i'll i'll take uh some time to answer your questions and then i i have another
01:28:35.180
rant i'll end the show with i have a lot to say today guys maybe i should start doing this more
01:28:40.300
than once a week um okay did you get a different pin yeah i forgot my normal pins i moved them out
01:28:50.780
of the way i'm trying different you guys can't see this behind the scenes but i move around my
01:28:54.500
monitors between every episode so i moved i usually have a bunch of pins right here on my desk
01:29:00.340
so i can just throw them on but i forgot it so i have to wear my long live canada pin
01:29:03.860
everything's backwards because we're on stream um but yeah it says long live canada which is
01:29:24.500
sorry i'm catching up on your comments i wanted to see what you guys are saying about harry potter
01:29:32.700
i want to see if everyone's just calling me cringe for first freaking about harry potter
01:29:42.420
Daniel will you enable super chats for these streams I have to look into it I haven't had
01:29:55.800
time I don't know I don't know if there's restrictions like if I need a certain number
01:29:59.080
of followers or anything to enable those um I I'll look into that I wouldn't mind uh you know
01:30:04.420
making some some extra money off of these streams um uh and then you guys can interact in another
01:30:11.000
way diary is blowing my mind right now thank you okay as long as one person enjoyed it that it was
01:30:19.520
worth it uh that it was worth it uh annual would you do just debates against albertian separatists
01:30:30.200
like harrison faulkner hosted with jason kenney um i would like to do debates but i i would much
01:30:35.020
prefer to stay focused on um on remigration and uh canadian nationalism i don't really want to be
01:30:40.540
dragged into that um separatism debate um personally i'm gonna uh like i'm a nationalist
01:30:46.100
i believe in the whole country um but like my pitch to separatists is that like these referendums
01:30:54.020
are going to fail and in large part because of the the ethnic vote just like jacques perizot
1.00
01:30:58.740
said about the um the last quebec referendum uh so even if you want separation we need
01:31:05.620
remigration first so i i much prefer to win over separatists to our cause i want to stay focused
01:31:11.860
on on remigration not getting into debates about economics and um and all that uh and separatism
01:31:19.220
and all these other topics let's stay focused on remigration let's stay focused on canadian
01:31:23.500
identity we have more than enough uh uh we have our work cut out for us kind of explaining these
01:31:30.660
topics without getting distracted also are you hegelian i i don't like labels i'm a nationalist
01:31:36.640
that's the only that's the only uh that's that's the only uh label i'm interested in
01:31:41.540
i'm a collector of flags where can i get the domsock flag we got the domsock flag here i need
01:31:51.840
to get some flagpoles so you guys can see it better but you can find it on our website shop
01:31:55.140
shop.dominionsociety.ca we're we're relaunching a bunch of merch soon but that you can still get
01:32:02.460
flags you can still get the domsock flag I have a question for you what should I look into
01:32:08.680
what should I look into on Pierre Polyev what do you think of him I've only recently seen
01:32:13.920
the clips on your channel I don't like Pierre I don't really like any current politicians
01:32:20.360
like Pierre spends much too much time pandering to immigrants
0.97
01:32:27.840
instead of putting our foot down for Canadian identity.
01:32:30.940
He doesn't offer the significant amount of reforms that we need.
01:32:35.660
He doesn't even want to stop mass immigration,
0.97
01:32:40.620
So I really want to see more from Pierre Polyev
01:32:46.420
Do you feel like the Liberals are destroying Canada?
01:32:48.680
it i i feel like it does not matter how much we struggle as canadians they still send millions
01:32:54.440
of dollars elsewhere and does not feel like the liberal government cares yeah no i the liberal
01:33:00.660
government i think the whole political establishment has been has been ruining canada for a long time
01:33:04.780
um there's a consensus on all these issues funneling money out of canada promoting mass
01:33:10.160
immigration undermining our identity promoting multiculturalism all these things are are cross
0.92
01:33:16.320
party consensus. So like the liberals are a problem for sure, but the conservatives are
01:33:21.100
just as much of a problem. And honestly, I've seen the liberals change more since Mark Carney
01:33:27.220
took over than I've seen the conservatives change over the same period. So I expect more dramatic
01:33:33.220
change from the conservatives just because they can. They're not in government. They should be
01:33:36.100
able to drastically shift to adjust to changing sentiment. But it does seem that the liberals
01:33:43.580
have been more in tune with that um i don't like either of them though
01:33:47.340
harry potter and the prisoner of brampton loved the harry potter rant yay
01:34:05.340
mr tyree what do you think about red tories progressive conservatives i think the term
01:34:12.140
red tory is constantly misused and it's criminal and it's one of my biggest pet peeves people often
01:34:18.700
use in the modern sense red tories have to come to mean conservatives that are progressive so
01:34:23.900
people that have like uh conservative fight or fiscally conservative socially progressive but
01:34:30.380
that's not actually what red tories were historically it was actually very much the
01:34:34.060
opposite that's more of a blue liberal a red tory um are more of big government conservatives and
01:34:40.060
And honestly, like I consider myself more of a red Tory
01:35:05.480
architecture, cuisine festivals through media and events?
01:35:08.720
um we we haven't got much time yet to to travel around and show off the country but i do want to
01:35:14.540
start doing that more and showing off i think this is a great idea and exactly what we should
01:35:19.940
do and i think this will help us to not only advance the conversation in nationalist circles
01:35:24.640
but also appeal to uh more regular canadians who maybe haven't seen this and don't really
01:35:29.520
understand our culture so i think that's a great suggestion and something that we'd like to do
01:35:32.680
right now i'm really busy on building the kind of foundation of the organization
01:35:37.020
um but i do want to be able to take our content to the next level doing stuff like this this is a
01:35:42.300
great idea any chance on a domsock velcro patch i think we're i think this is a yes it's something
01:35:51.000
that we're working on um uh i'm i don't handle the merch directly that's uh my my uh my colleague
01:35:59.940
my base colleague ken um he does all that i know he's working on a domsock patch i can't remember
01:36:06.560
if it's an iron on one or a velcro on one but i believe we have we'll have a domstock patch at
01:36:13.220
the next merch drop daniel what's your preferred source of caffeine i am a black coffee guy i don't
01:36:22.040
i don't do anything else uh uh only black coffee i don't like those energy drinks or anything like
01:36:27.420
that i like to keep it simple simple diet simple diet lots of water i'm gonna cut right now we're
01:36:33.440
we're cutting for for summer so we're summer ready i did a bulk over the winter now we're
01:36:38.080
cutting down so it's only black coffee i don't know if i have a favorite provincial flag
01:36:47.940
there's a lot of good ones um there's a lot of interesting ones i i am actually a fan of alberta's
01:36:55.900
um i like a few of them out east as well nova scotia's got a good one
01:37:05.420
do you enjoy triggering civic nationalist libtars of course of course it's a big hobby of mine
01:37:13.620
do you think far-right parties like restore britain is is realistic in canada or will
01:37:25.500
another one go the way of the ppc and will infiltrating influencing conservative parties
01:37:30.600
ever be feasible? This is a great question. So I think Restore Britain is a very important
01:37:39.620
movement that's going to have ripple effects across the Anglosphere, across Europe, across
01:37:46.600
the world. I'm very hopeful for their success. I don't know what's going to happen. I can't predict
01:37:51.580
the future. They seem to be growing very fast. I hope they're able to succeed, even if it's just
01:37:56.340
getting a foothold in parliament um um so that they can expand on uh uh honestly i think a good
01:38:05.320
result could be getting a few seats blocking um uh reform as the situation gets worse they'll
01:38:13.120
continue to ascend and then maybe they'll they can form government in the next election um i i think
01:38:19.180
that's a realistic good scenario if they can do if they can form government right off the bat that
01:38:23.860
would be incredible. But the better that they concede, they can succeed, the more it sets
01:38:30.360
precedent for something like that coming here. I think the PPC's failure is a few things. It was
01:38:36.320
very poorly organized behind the scenes, a big, big leadership problem. But also the vision of
01:38:42.300
the party was out of sync with Canadian identity. It was very libertarian in character. And as we've
01:38:47.580
already talked about came as a very much a a rejection of of liberalism so to have this kind
01:38:54.880
of american style culture war libertarian philosophy party that was read led by a quebecer
0.92
01:39:02.660
with that was made that had a very english base like it it just didn't it didn't work so i wouldn't
01:39:10.000
say that the ppc proves that you know a dissident nationalist party can't succeed i think it proves
01:39:15.280
that you know a libertarian party can only grow so much even if it has good stances on immigration
01:39:23.120
a new party will have to be more in tune with canadian identity um canadian political culture
01:39:29.760
and and these things um i our goal is not so much on infiltration right now it's about shifting
01:39:38.160
culture right the the reality is things need to be normalized in the broader culture before
01:39:43.600
political parties start adopting them so we want to normalize conversations of identity conversation
01:39:48.560
pushback against immigration the concept of re-migration no party is going to adopt re-migration
01:39:53.520
until canadians know what it is and then want it that's when the change will start so we want to
01:39:59.360
create our our strategy is meta-political we want to advance conversations normalize ideas
01:40:05.040
and as they become popular politicians will inevitably um adopt them infiltration is just
01:40:13.280
one of our many strategies so we can have our guys on the inside in order to capitalize
01:40:17.920
once the culture once the the milieu changes and there's uh there's an opportunity um
01:40:26.880
but as well we're building a sort of shadow political party we're building an organization
01:40:30.880
across the country we're building um we're building an organization across the country
01:40:36.720
we're training people in um political activism we're we're getting people installed in parties
01:40:43.920
we're getting in people installed at the local level and municipal councils and all these things
01:40:48.320
um i think there's going to be a big opportunity after the next election after the conservatives
01:40:53.920
fail again there's going to be a lot of people looking for new op uh after some of these
01:40:58.640
separation represent referendums fail there's going to be a lot of people looking for solutions
01:41:02.800
And I think bats are going to be our chance to either hijack a political
01:41:38.300
do you believe americans are their own way of ethnicity it's a it's more i'm i don't know the
01:41:49.020
ethnography as well in in um america as i do in canada but as i understand it they they had very
01:41:58.080
different waves of of migration and they have a lot more varied um uh ethnic groups even even
01:42:04.960
though they're all uh largely white ethnic groups um there's a lot more germans there's a lot more
01:42:10.080
scanties and stuff like that in can that is much more narrow and it is much more british and french
01:42:21.680
do you have news on dominion society remigration white papers i don't really have an update since
01:42:30.700
It's kind of, our first one is in its final stages.
01:42:36.500
I'm hoping to be able to release it sometime in April,
01:42:52.000
We don't have a team working at it full-time every day
01:42:54.260
or else we'd be churning this stuff out, right?
01:42:56.220
people working at it in their in their spare time while i try and keep everything coordinated
01:43:07.340
well one day we have a social conservative right-wing political party named the reclaim
01:43:10.860
party i kind of like the idea of a dominion party or maybe a loyalist party that's probably what i
01:43:34.080
and have definitely swayed me towards becoming a member.
01:43:36.900
I do encourage everyone to sign up as a member.
01:43:39.720
You can head over to our website, dominionsociety.ca join.
01:44:04.640
but most importantly, you can get involved as a volunteer
01:44:06.420
at the local level or help out with one of our specialized
01:44:13.180
You can be a part of the movement to take this country back.
01:44:28.780
if we can coordinate about 3% of the population,
01:44:39.140
What do you think of the Canada-France movement?
01:44:44.660
think they're very disorganized i think they're very social media centric i i and i don't think
01:44:49.300
they really understand canadian identity either any affiliation with the dominion review no i'm
01:44:54.900
a fan of uh riley riley donovan's work but uh we're not uh we're not associated or anything
01:45:06.100
loyalist party sounds great great i i'm glad you agree i think it would be great it would it would
01:45:10.260
be like we're the loyalists that means everyone else is traders right it kind of uh introduces
01:45:23.880

in skatchewan i think so hopefully we can get the ball rolling in some other areas
01:46:59.260
joined recently the pin is very nice the pin is very nice it's elite you need to have one
01:47:04.300
I sense desperation, right? I'm not desperate. I'm having a great time.
01:47:22.620
Yeah. Oh, that's, I also should have mentioned that we are very backlogged. Please do not
01:47:26.600
expect to call immediately. Even in some of the areas that I mentioned, it will take at least a
01:47:35.740
week. And we currently have over a thousand calls to catch up on. So please be patient.
01:47:44.320
If you're a member, we will get to you, but it will take some time. Keep in mind, we are a very
01:47:48.960
small team. We're a volunteer operation. We don't have a headquarters with 10 guys, 100 guys working
01:47:55.420
full-time right like we're like it's it's me it's ken it's it's greg it's and it's a growing team
01:48:02.300
of volunteers across the country so please be patient we will reach out
01:48:09.420
how can we make re-migration a reality the first step is like our our approach is metapolitical
01:48:28.620
we we do this by normalizing a set of the ideas re-migration it's never going to be implemented
01:48:34.460
it's never going to be embraced by politicians a new party is not going to succeed if no one's
01:48:39.340
ever heard of remigration if no one knows what the word means so the first step is to normalize
01:48:44.140
these ideas we do this through four main channels we do this through media content we do this through
01:48:48.700
grassroots activism we do this through intellectual development and we do this through institutional
01:48:55.020
infiltration so this is our strategy to bring remigration into the mainstream in canada
0.99
01:49:00.380
in a professional, incredible fashion. It's not going to be done overnight. It's going to take
01:49:06.540
time. You know, I haven't done a, I'm very focused on remigration, but, you know, off the top of my
01:49:24.580
head stuff stuff like um uh like a pronatal ios and planks you know uh developing our our military
01:49:34.180
um you know a economic nationalist trade policy stuff like that um we need to bring back our
01:49:46.100
manufacturing push back on globalization um you know common sense issues on uh and and
01:49:54.500
and transforming our how we manage resources in this country and i think even constitutional
01:50:02.260
amendments or repealing the the charter and replacing it with a new constitutional
01:50:06.180
vision of this country would be all kind of things to continue to consider
01:50:16.100
very much enjoying these streams any duo streams playing with greg not at the moment i've been
01:50:35.780
I hope to do some sort of tour around the country a bit
01:50:50.820
It's great to see the Dominion Society becoming the premier nationalist organization in Canadian
01:50:54.580
Patriots. Thank you. I agree. That was our goal, and we're just getting started.
01:51:06.160
Tyler Russell could have become more popular if he had stayed around
01:51:08.700
after 2021. Yeah, if he didn't run away to America and abandon us.
01:51:16.760
Thoughts on Second Sense Canada? I don't have a strong opinion. I'm happy to see
01:51:20.780
canadian nationalists getting organized regardless of the organization they're in
01:51:24.800
physical fitness is good but i don't have any affiliation with uh with the sons
01:51:29.500
good wear your pin everywhere don't be like me and forget forget it on your other
01:51:42.480
jacket uh don't be like me remember to wear your pin
01:51:51.740
will you ever see bring ken on the show yeah we uh we might bring ken on sometime um ken is a bit
01:51:56.700
more of a behind the scenes guy but uh you'll see you see him in some of our content and stuff he's
01:52:01.740
a he's a big organizer a mucker and a grinder um but you know i i'm the guy that that likes to
0.92
01:52:20.780
Daniel do you recommend a book to read for curious nationalists who want to be better educated yes I
01:52:28.640
have a whole reading list a lot of you reached out to me since our last show and asked for it
01:52:34.040
you can just send me an email at info at dominion society.ca and I'll send you my reading list I have
01:52:38.900
a good five or six books they're not all in Canadian nationalism some are some of them are
01:52:42.540
more on like right wing illiberal thought there but there it's like six books that I think are
01:52:48.120
really helpful to kind of understand the political situation. Some are about Canada,
01:52:53.200
some are about kind of political philosophy. But I think they're a good combo. They're books that
01:52:59.140
I've read over the last few years that I thought were really helpful. Is there a link I could grab
01:53:04.680
so I can print off and post some flyers? No. We print all of our materials centrally to get the
01:53:14.140
best cost and to ensure quality and consistency in our branding we don't want people just like
1.00
01:53:20.760
doing printer paper stuff that looks really bad um we only provide print materials to
01:53:26.200
to dominion society members who have been onboarded as volunteers and done all the
01:53:31.680
send all the necessary agreements to to to weed out any sort of infiltrators or or people um who
01:53:38.680
might try and make us look bad um so if you want to get involved putting out flyers putting up
01:53:43.640
posters, doing all that, you need to sign up as a member.
01:54:12.140
I think we have a lot of potential in Victoria and those guys are going to
01:54:15.060
start spreading the message across Vancouver Island very, very soon.
01:54:18.780
I plan to connect with them tomorrow actually and kind of scale up our
01:54:30.280
What are your religious beliefs, Daniel? I am, I am.
01:54:35.200
I was born to two Catholic parents who kind of left the faith and they raised
01:54:39.840
us very secularly. Religion's never been a big focus of mine, to be honest. I don't consider
01:54:47.320
myself much of a theologian or anything like that. That being said, I have been kind of dipping my
01:54:53.300
toes into Christianity and Catholicism lately. I've been going to a local church in my area very
01:54:58.440
regularly, and I have a few friends that are very involved there that have been kind of encouraging
01:55:04.460
me and i've been really enjoying that um it it um it provides a sense of foundation and uh
01:55:12.060
community in my life uh a connection to what's past um and i think that's of great value i think
01:55:19.660
it's a beautiful service um and it's nice to see the same people every week it's it's nice to have
01:55:25.820
that kind of rooting both in in your community locally but also into your history so uh i i'm on
01:55:34.140
on my own journey uh i i won't call myself a christian i'm not baptized i'm not really a part
01:55:38.880
of the faith but um i'm exploring i'll be wearing my pin in portugal in may this guy's going to
01:55:47.120
rem some i'll be there as well so maybe we'll see each other we should take pictures
01:55:51.740
together i'll be there uh i think i'll be speaking actually
01:55:55.860
thoughts on upcoming canadian nationalist creators like max jenison joseph board i like to see
01:56:08.240
more people in the space doing their own thing uh i don't like i might not agree with everything
01:56:15.440
everyone says but we need more voices this is metapolitics and actions right we need to have
01:56:20.980
a thriving um counter narrative space and the major media groups are not really doing that
01:56:29.460
great you know western standard been doing some good stuff juno's been doing some good stuff
01:56:33.460
i think rebel's a big problem to be honest um so it's great to see new creators kind of getting
01:56:40.740
okay it looks like that's about the end of the questions um i'm gonna do i have a
01:56:57.700
i have one last rant and then we'll wrap things up for tonight oh what's the issue with rebel i
01:57:04.900
think they take up a lot of market share in the both both like the attention marketplace and the
01:57:10.300
um and like the financial support and i don't think they um they do much with it i don't think
01:57:17.260
they advance the problem i think they hold a lot of carry a lot of water for the cpc i think they
01:57:21.720
post a lot of outrage bait and slop i think they they could do a lot more they were the kind of
01:57:27.340
first movers and they have this huge advantage over the rest of the media ecosystem but i don't
01:57:31.920
think they actually like push forward the conversation they won't even platform nationalists
01:57:36.420
like me I think it's all very uh suspect very disappointing okay I'm gonna stop taking questions
01:57:48.360
now do one last rant it's been two hours guys this is way too long of a stream uh I'm sorry
01:57:55.480
for taking up all your time I hope you've I hope you guys have been uh enjoying me babble about
01:58:00.800
stuff. And I'm getting hungry, man. I haven't had dinner yet. But what I want to leave you with
01:58:10.200
tonight is aesthetics matter. I think there are too many, especially men out there, who discount
01:58:22.800
the importance of things like physical appearance. And this is going to sound superficial.
01:58:35.260
that your appearance is a part of how you communicate
01:58:43.060
or else you're not playing the game of life completely.
01:58:53.060
This means getting in shape, eating right, exercising.
01:59:01.680
And I think a lot of people think a lot of these things
0.91
01:59:10.680
And I was very much like that for the longest time.
0.99
01:59:23.120
Because for the longest time, I was just like that.
01:59:25.940
I didn't feel it was necessary to exercise.
1.00
01:59:34.360
I was self-conscious about the way I dressed
1.00
01:59:37.520
and I thought that caring about that stuff was unnecessary.
01:59:50.600
I was fat, especially when I worked for the PPC.
01:59:52.780
I was, I felt I was so busy and oh, how do I not docs people and double-checking the docs.
02:00:22.360
yeah exactly i thought i was too busy uh how do i do this
02:00:31.280
okay i thought i was too busy i didn't want to work out i was lazy i got
02:00:38.680
i was skinny fat i i wore hoodies all the time um and like i i don't know i thought i was too
02:00:48.140
good for these things um and the reality is it affects how people think about you
02:01:05.820
like this this is me a few years ago i was fat i wore these stupid glasses i thought they made
0.82
02:01:13.360
me look cool or smart or something um like this is this is me this is me when i worked for the ppc
0.96
02:01:32.520
i started to to realize that it it undermined my my very identity people wouldn't take me as
02:01:41.280
seriously uh like aesthetics just like it's it's much like politics you can you can not take care
02:01:50.180
about politics but politics cares about you it's the same thing you might not care about aesthetics
02:01:54.220
but people care about aesthetics um so you have to you can't run from this you have to embrace it
02:02:01.580
the reality is we are not good enough right you have to accept you have to strip down the ego and
02:02:13.400
accept we're not good enough as nationalists as a movement as individuals we're not good enough or
02:02:18.460
else this country wouldn't be such a mess. And as such, we have to become better. We have to become
02:02:24.760
the best versions of ourselves. We need to get stronger. We need to get smarter. We need to get
02:02:29.740
more beautiful. We need to get richer. We need to get more influential. We need to get more
02:02:34.600
well-known, more respected. And the easiest thing that you can do is control your life.
02:02:44.220
start reading on a daily basis even if it's just for even if it's just 10 pages a day like just
02:02:50.560
start reading um start working out like for the longest time like especially like after high
02:02:57.960
school for the first few years of my career I did not work out I only started in the last few years
02:03:04.040
and if you take I won't lie to you it's not easy like it's not easy to transform your physique you
02:03:13.000
have to learn how to eat properly. You have to learn how to work out properly. And working out
02:03:17.300
itself is a struggle, but that's a part of the experience. Like we have to get used to adversity.
02:03:26.340
We have to get accustomed to struggling. We have to enjoy that challenge. And exercising is a
02:03:35.020
perfect gateway to get more accustomed to that um to that way of life uh like i i over the last
02:03:45.420
few years i've completely recalmed my body like you can see we got the we got the we got the chad
0.86
02:03:50.900
fucking jawline going on um and it's because i started taking things very seriously and
0.85
02:03:56.140
it's it completely transforms the way that you you start uh running your life it it gives you
0.99
02:04:04.000
more energy. It gives you more confidence. It fixes your hormones. Everything else is downstream
02:04:11.400
from that. Like you need to start incorporating physical activity. Like I'm happy to give some
02:04:17.260
more advice. But I like to think of myself as an example of how it's possible because like I like
02:04:22.160
that's just me a year or two ago. I look very different. I dress very differently. Like you
02:04:28.640
have to get over these these self-conscious notions that uh like working out is too difficult or or
02:04:35.820
knowing how to dress getting clothes that fit um uh getting out of your comfort hoodie and your
02:04:44.700
sweatpants to to to wear a suit or just a nice shirt um uh is something that's gay or or effeminate
1.00
02:04:54.080
or anything like that. Like this is all nonsense. You need to accept that the way you look is the
0.98
02:05:00.260
way you are perceived. Even if you're smart and you have all the right arguments, if you're fat
0.97
02:05:06.280
or skinny fat or whatever, people aren't going to take you as seriously as if you're the best
02:05:10.840
version of yourself. So the nation is the people. And as individuals, we have to push ourselves to
02:05:18.420
become the greatest versions of ourselves in order to improve the nation, in order to move forward
02:05:23.380
the movement in order to, to, to become the great society that we aspire to be. So it starts with
02:05:30.620
you, pick up a book, pick up a weight, even if it's just at home, like you can read 10 pages a
02:05:36.000
day. You can do some pushups and situps, start working out regularly. I'm happy to give some
02:05:40.780
advice to people on what to read on, on, on what to prioritize to work out. Um, I, I'm no, I'm no
02:05:48.660
social media influencer fitness dude um but uh i i do think i've been able to choose a lot of
02:05:56.140
pretty decent physique in my in my uh in my spare time over the last uh year or two so uh daniel was
0.55
02:06:03.720
a chubster damn yeah i was skinny fat man it was not good even if you look at the early dominion
0.75
02:06:09.060
society days um uh like i was not looking good guys i was not looking good i'm not gonna i'm
0.97
02:06:47.240
you just have to take it seriously you have to work at it every day it's a it's and like to be
02:06:52.120
honest like it starts as a chore but like you fall in love with it i've been injured the last few
02:06:57.360
weeks um i i strained something in my shoulder um doing a chest a dumbbell just chest press too
02:07:04.680
deeply so i've been taking a i have i keep trying to get back into things but uh i keep slowing down
02:07:11.120
my recovery but i miss it um taking control over your body like it's much i know we're all over
02:07:19.380
jordan peterson but is before you change the world you must clean up your room like it works for you
02:07:23.700
that's that that that rule is true first of all and it works for your body just as much as it
02:07:28.300
works for your bedroom if you can't if you can't uh uh if you can't clean up your body if you can't
02:07:35.280
treat your body like a temple if you can't if you can't build muscle how are you going to build
02:07:41.520
a society how are you going to build an organization um so please do take yourself
02:07:47.040
more more seriously um i'm down 20 pounds this year do some push-up boys congratulations man
02:07:54.280
keep it going um but yeah it's not it's not yeah some some of you are probably skinny and need to
02:08:03.960
put on weight some of you are probably fat and need to put off weight i'm in the middle of a cut
02:08:08.660
right now i bulked up a bit during the winter i want to cut down a bit for the summer that's kind
02:08:12.940
of the cycle um i'm happy maybe we can do a whole stream on this uh sometime um uh talk a bit about
02:08:22.720
exercise and strategy there um because i i have uh uh learned a lot about that over that last year
02:08:31.100
i would be yeah my cortisol was high it was not it was not a good time in my life now you can see
02:08:36.540
that i'm thriving now that i'm actually doing something that i love that i believe in that i'm
02:08:40.340
not trying to like contort my views into the into the ppc that i'm not um you know overeating and
02:08:47.040
and uh coping and all this stuff that now i'm i'm really in my element and i think we can all get
02:08:52.920
there together um and we'll be um we'll be better off for it uh best way to lose weight um it's a
02:09:02.640
calorie deficit it's you gotta start counting calories um i make sure you're getting your 10k
02:09:09.060
steps in a day and you're you're in a calorie deficit um but i also wouldn't blindly lose
02:09:14.840
weight like putting off weight is a good opportunity to build muscle because you already
02:09:18.840
have all those fat stores to convert. So I would, don't you like the first time I lost weight, I
02:09:28.140
just cut calories, cut carbs hard, started doing a lot of cardio, all these things. And then I got
02:09:35.280
to my goal weight. And then I look myself in the mirror like, oh, shit, I'm just skinny now. And
0.99
02:09:39.920
then I had to go back and start building up muscle. And then that's a big challenge. So
02:09:43.720
uh i would i would uh not just blindly lose weight like make sure you're putting on muscle so you
02:09:49.300
kind of like meet yourself in the middle or else uh like it's not much better to be super skinny
02:09:54.240
than it is to be super fat i mean obviously being super fat is is really unhealthy but
02:09:58.860
um you know aesthetically speaking they're both bad
02:10:02.340
yeah yeah so yeah that's my advice um we have to become the best versions of ourselves
02:10:17.140
you know start testing out your style you know start start exercising take your life seriously
02:10:26.460
uh and i mean everything will flow you'll fix your hormonal balances you'll you'll become more
02:10:32.100
confident uh like you really will become the best version of yourself so uh that's that's the big
02:10:38.520
