Canada it is time to redefine nice oh Canadians are nice we're so nice what does that really mean
00:00:12.720
because right now our definition of nice is not serving us it means being passive it means being
00:00:22.800
a pushover it means being this sort of harmless I don't want to ruffle any feathers
00:00:30.000
I heard it one way to find is Canadians are really good at pretending everything is okay
00:00:35.120
when they're not okay this sounds like a person who isn't good at standing up for themselves
00:00:40.640
it sounds like a person who isn't good at setting boundaries for themselves and it sounds like a
00:00:46.000
person who doesn't have any self-respect so let's scrub that definition of nice and redefine it okay
00:00:57.440
because I can be nice and still stand up for myself I can be nice and still assert myself I can be nice
00:01:05.920
and still be a force to be reckoned with the word gentle comes to mind think think of when you're
00:01:12.960
holding something that is delicate you have to be gentle with it that doesn't mean you're a weakling
00:01:18.080
it means that you actually have a lot of power and you actually have a lot of strength
00:01:21.600
in your body and in your hand but you need to be gentle with it as to not break it so let's kind
00:01:28.800
of look at that sort of a definition of nice okay because right now I am not right now but over the
00:01:37.440
past like couple years especially I have been so disappointed in what I've seen manifest as the
00:01:44.640
character of Canadians and that's going to change because I think a lot more people are waking up to what's
00:01:50.240
going on but over the past couple years you know the character of many Canadians has been
00:01:58.320
so painfully docile and passive that uh you know if you don't stand for something you'll fall for
00:02:06.080
anything we seem to be so disconnected with any sort of respect for our country that um anyone can just
00:02:15.040
show up and say hey this is you're going to be your lifestyle now okay and you're not going to
00:02:19.600
question it because health and safety you want to be you want to be a nice little boy don't you
00:02:24.960
you don't want uh people to die now do you do you don't question anything by the way don't question
00:02:31.280
anything and anybody who does question this is bad they're a bad boy you don't want to be a bad boy no
00:02:37.760
you want to be a nice boy and here's what I think it comes down to I think this problem comes down to
00:02:42.880
how the liberal party kind of has a monopoly almost on what many Canadians think being Canadian
00:02:51.520
is and it's a big farce or at least it's something that's very very very dangerous and doesn't serve
00:02:58.240
serve us because you know being liberal being open-minded being tolerant these are all things that I think
00:03:10.240
anyone in their right mind would be like yeah I think I'm generally open-minded I think I'm
00:03:15.600
generally liberal I think I'm generally tolerant here's the problem
00:03:22.000
where does that end where does that end because I talked about the definition of nice before and it's
00:03:30.560
actually as it's manifesting in Canada it turns out that being nice means being a doormat it turns out
00:03:36.080
that you are so open-minded that you are open-minded to enslaving yourself you're open to um you know
00:03:44.960
any idea that Justin Trudeau might come up with that week I don't care what your politics are this should
00:03:51.200
or if you even follow politics or not this should concern you to have a whole country of nice people
00:03:57.600
who aren't concerned about foreign influences or the forces of of greed and the interest of transnational
00:04:05.040
corporations taking advantage of all of us naive Canadians because that's what it is it's not being
00:04:10.800
nice it's being naive in terms of a geopolitical context okay so yeah that it's it's very concerning
00:04:19.200
and I'm talking to you know if you're more of a leftist or even like a communist this should concern
00:04:24.320
you as well if you haven't figured it out yet these large capitalistic organizations exploit your empathy
00:04:32.560
they cloak their intentions with some sort of social cause altruism will help we're helping
00:04:38.320
other we're helping the environment this that and the other they do that to get your support and to
00:04:42.960
sell you more crap meanwhile planned obsolescence marches on that's how open-minded you are and as
00:04:51.760
like you know just to kind of push this to the extreme Justin Trudeau is on tape saying that
00:04:58.960
I don't think we should take away the Canadian citizenship of terrorists the liberal party
00:05:05.520
believes the terrorists should get to keep their Canadian citizenship
00:05:11.920
because I do like like people are people are laughing because that makes them nervous what does being
00:05:22.320
Canadian even mean anymore you know that's not very nice being a terrorist I don't know just can we agree
00:05:29.920
on that can we agree on that that that being a nice Canadian is not being a terrorist is that is that
00:05:39.680
fair to say so all of this liberal mushiness it's actually failing us if you haven't noticed because
00:05:48.880
like I said you can be so open-minded that you're open-minded to anything you're open to your own
00:05:54.880
enslavement right there is a difference between being peaceful and being harmless if you are peaceful
00:06:04.000
that means you are capable of causing harm you are capable of causing a ruckus but you are choosing
00:06:13.280
not to kind of like being gentle you're choosing to be gentle with the situation that's being peaceful but
00:06:22.000
being harmless
00:06:25.680
that's that's just kind of sad to be completely harmless in your life you know like it looks
00:06:33.520
like you sounds like you don't have much power in your life and and worst of all you're very vulnerable
00:06:38.480
and susceptible to forces that are out there for good or for bad you know it sounds like you're
00:06:46.080
just kind of waiting to be manipulated waiting to be pointed in one direction or another you're
00:06:52.160
harmless right but uh this decade we're going Canadians the real Canadians are going to redefine
00:07:01.920
what it means to be nice and what it means to be Canadian don't get the booster and we love and
00:07:10.160
support our truckers talk to you soon
