Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel, 427 p.m. I hope you're having a great day today.
00:00:05.140
I don't often do a video at this time of day. I thought this one was important, and this is not
00:00:09.340
going to be a long video, but I think it's an important one, particularly for people in Alberta
00:00:14.360
and those of you who live in Canada. I think it was revealed in question period today,
00:00:20.760
the first question period since government returned, I think the first question period
00:00:24.000
since middle of December, it was revealed today how Mark Carney and the Liberals are going to
00:00:29.680
treat Alberta and our oil and gas industry, and it's going to be much like Trudeau and the Liberals
00:00:35.980
treated the oil and gas industry. During the campaign and since, Carney's been very vague
00:00:41.080
on what would happen with oil and gas and pipelines. He talks about Canada becoming an energy superpower,
00:00:49.080
but he didn't talk about oil and gas all that much when he said those things. People like me
00:00:53.680
suggest that he thinks we can have a green energy superpower in Canada, and that's not really
00:01:00.100
possible. But today in question period, a question came up from the conservative side, and it was
00:01:06.680
directed towards Mark Carney, but he chose not to answer it. It went to his new radical environment
00:01:12.980
and climate change minister, Julie DeBruzen. I'm going to get to that in just a moment.
00:01:17.940
Daniel Smith put out this tweet earlier today, referring to an article by Rick Bell
00:01:24.380
in the Calgary Herald. You can see it at the bottom there. Quote,
00:01:28.580
Is it so really bloody hard to take off the political handcuffs and let Alberta pump even
00:01:35.540
more money into Canada's economy? Premier Smith saying, for Canada's sake, the new prime minister
00:01:40.880
needs to partner with Alberta to start building a stronger national economy today. There's an article
00:01:46.460
of a similar vein, Financial Post from yesterday, Dan Francis, Carney must listen to Alberta. Carney
00:01:52.900
cannot be trusted until he removes Stephen Gilboa and others like him from his cabinet and government.
00:01:58.880
He's not done that. Julie DeBruzen is Stephen Gilboa's acolyte. They work together, and she's a radical
00:02:08.320
as well. Here's the question that was asked in the House of Commons in question period today,
00:02:13.780
and here is the answer. Even the BCNDP have removed their decarbonization policies for
00:02:21.220
energy export facilities. This is not politics. Even Canada's parliamentary budget officer forecast
00:02:27.540
a $20.5 billion reduction in GDP and potential job loss of 54,000 full-time jobs under this energy
00:02:36.180
production cap. Canada's loss is America's gain. Again, to the prime minister, will the prime minister
00:02:45.300
scrap the Canadian job-killing and Canadian economy-killing energy production cap, yes or no?
00:02:52.120
The Honourable Minister of Environment and Climate Change.
00:02:59.560
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I would like to thank the constituents of Toronto Danforth for giving me this
00:03:05.960
opportunity to stand up for Canada and to build a strong economy. To the member opposite's question,
00:03:13.240
I want to be clear. If Canada wants to be an energy superpower, the PM, the prime minister has stated
00:03:19.560
it. It's going to be low cost, low risk, and low carbon. We're going to get projects built right
00:03:25.720
across our country while making sure that we'll protect the environment.
00:03:31.640
Let me ask you this. Maybe I'm ignorant. At any time, has Mark Carney said that becoming an energy
00:03:39.480
superpower in Canada is going to be low cost, low risk, and low carbon. I do not recall him saying
00:03:46.920
that at all. Not since he ran to be the Liberal leader, won being the Liberal leader, was named
00:03:53.080
Prime Minister, and was elected Prime Minister. Have I ever heard him say those three things? Particularly
00:03:59.720
low carbon. This is something new. And the mask has come off, folks. It has been revealed. This is
00:04:08.680
where we are now. The radical environmentalists are in control. Mark Carney is one of them. We've known
00:04:16.040
it right from the beginning. And his new radical environment minister, Julie DeBruzan, revealed it
00:04:23.080
today in question period. Let me know what you think in the comments. I appreciate you being here. If you
