John Bolton - Arrest Trudeau and Carney Bows to China

00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is Saturday, January the 17th. It is 2 10 a.m.

00:00:10.840 Panamanian time. I'm looking rather ghostly here. Found a quiet place out on the patio. I've got to

00:00:16.420 go in soon. I'm in a rainforest and everything just gets so wet overnight. I'm afraid I might

00:00:21.840 short out my MacBook. You know what's really strange about being up at 2 10 a.m.? That there

00:00:29.220 are actually people who are up at this hour. They're nuts. I went to a place in the building 1.00

00:00:34.720 here which is supposed to be quiet and they were doing things in there. What are people doing up at

00:00:38.900 this hour? I just don't get it. Yesterday I got some sun as you could tell. It was out. It was

00:00:43.860 interesting because I was out on a catamaran yesterday with 65 people. Huge boat off the

00:00:50.360 shores of Panama. We went over to an island. Great cruise. It was wonderful. I actually talked to

00:00:55.280 people. I talked to a movie producer named Ramon from Milwaukee. He's done TV shows and

00:01:01.840 documentaries and whatnot. I was telling him about the Alberta independence movement and

00:01:05.540 then I met a man and his wife. George was from Birmingham, England and I was talking to him

00:01:11.980 while swimming on a beach here on an island just off of Panama City telling him about the

00:01:17.400 Alberta independence movement. Had no idea it was happening so he said he was going to look

00:01:21.080 into that. He said that was rather fascinating that Canada may be breaking up but that's not what I

00:01:25.580 want to talk to you about today. There's a couple of things I want to touch on quickly. I'm trying to

00:01:29.200 keep up on the news. I hope you understand that it's hard to do that when you're on vacation and you're

00:01:34.740 trying to have a good time but I do want to keep up on the news and a couple of things crossed my mind

00:01:39.620 yesterday. The invocation of the Emergencies Act was deemed unreasonable and for those people who

00:01:47.220 followed the convoy and saw a handicapped woman get run over by a horse when the Emergencies Act was

00:01:54.840 enacted back then. The jackboots basically came up came out and put down the rights of Canadian 0.97

00:02:02.240 citizens. We knew that this was going to happen. We understood what was happening back then and I'm

00:02:07.180 pleased with this decision for sure. But I don't know if anybody else has said this but why isn't

00:02:13.220 anybody being held responsible. There are a lot of nasty things you can do to people but taking away

00:02:18.280 their rights is one of the worst as far as I'm concerned and that's what was done here. And I

00:02:24.200 think if you were to find, what is her name, Katy Perry? Is that, listen I'm 61. I don't listen to

00:02:29.860 popular music today. I'm getting older. I'm becoming my parents. But if you find Katy Perry there'll be

00:02:35.540 some guy named Justin Trudeau hanging around her. Arrest that guy. Arrest him. And while you're at it

00:02:44.220 find Christia Freeland. She's hanging out with some guy named Zelensky over in Ukraine. Arrest that 1.00

00:02:48.920 little troll as well. A lot of you who followed this remember her little, her little laugh as she 0.85

00:02:55.320 froze people's bank accounts back then. Why aren't these people in freaking chains?

00:02:59.120 Why aren't people held responsible for this kind of thing?

00:03:09.780 It's sad that this can happen. And here's the thing.

00:03:15.700 Back when this was going on, I said you don't have to put the Emergencies Act in Justin. Just talk to

00:03:21.080 the people. That's what they want. Moving on. Arrest them.

00:03:32.780 It was around this time last year, I think Justin Trudeau was still the prime minister at the time.

00:03:37.280 You know, I did a video yesterday saying that Carney announced on January 16th, 2025, he was running for

00:03:42.740 the liberal leadership. So we're one day on from the first anniversary of that. But it was around this

00:03:47.060 time last year that I think Justin Trudeau was having another one of his first ministers meetings

00:03:51.500 discussing tariffs. I don't think Danielle Smith was at that one, if I remember correctly. It's a

00:03:57.420 year ago now. But I think she was off doing the diplomatic thing, trying to talk to the Trump

00:04:02.200 administration and make some deals like the prime minister should have been doing. She was called a 0.96

00:04:07.760 traitor for it. She's called a traitor for it to this very day. But it was around this time last year

00:04:12.980 that you started to hear the words Team Canada a lot more. I think it may have popped up in a December

00:04:19.940 meeting, but certainly around January, it started popping up a lot more. And I think with Carney

00:04:27.140 making a deal with China, I think Team Canada is officially dead. I've said it before, but I think

00:04:33.440 it's officially dead now. There's no cohesiveness in this country at all. Do you feel that?

00:04:39.440 Carney has aligned himself with a country that does not share our values. This is a country that just

00:04:48.820 a few years ago kidnapped our citizens. They've interfered with our elections. We still haven't

00:04:53.540 gotten to the bottom of that. I don't think the liberals want that to happen. They're responsible

00:04:58.000 for atrocious human rights violations, which the Liberal Party and Canada in general condemned not

00:05:04.380 very long ago. And now we're cozying up to these people. Folks, this is the new world order.

00:05:09.440 Boy, has that got chins wagging and tugs wagging, huh? No need to worry about the new world order.

00:05:16.720 Comment, folks. I don't know why you're concerned about that. I've always been told by liberals,

00:05:21.600 just a conspiracy. We'll move on from that. But Team Canada is dead.

00:05:28.560 You've got Doug Ford apoplectic right now because Carney's made a deal to bring EVs into the country.

00:05:34.320 All we need are these vehicles spying on us because that's a concern as well. But Ford is pissed off.

00:05:40.000 The unions are pissed off. They don't want these vehicles in. Who's happy? Scott Moe is somewhat

00:05:47.040 happy. You know, the tariffs on canola have been dropped. So he's kind of happy about that. I don't

00:05:52.320 know whether it was a parody account. I quickly saw it last night before I went to bed. But did Scott Moe

00:05:57.600 actually tweet out something like, what is Ford going to do now? Pour out a bottle of canola?

00:06:03.280 Did that actually happen? Was I reading a parody? This is Canadian politics.

00:06:08.880 It could be a parody. It could be real. This is the country we live in right now.

00:06:12.320 Well, you've got one premier. You know, he did the double take with the New World Order

00:06:19.680 comment from Carney. But you've got one premier mocking another one just down the line.

00:06:26.240 Team Canada is dead. It's been dead for a while.

00:06:32.080 And I think Carney's doing this not because he wants a deal with China as much as he wants to

00:06:38.240 piss off the United States of America. I think that's what it's about. They spent quite a bit

00:06:45.280 of time talking about, you know, how great the negotiations are here in China, unlike another

00:06:50.640 trading partner we have, our biggest trading partner to the South, which we still haven't got

00:06:54.720 to deal with. But isn't this the playbook for Carney and the Liberals? They go to this all the time to

00:07:04.400 satisfy the base. Just go online. Doing deals with the Communist Chinese, not a good idea. 1.00

00:07:15.360 But Carney's base and the Liberal voters love it. Here's the thing. Scott Moe better be careful

00:07:20.240 because you may get a break on these tariffs right now. But what happens six months down the line

00:07:26.880 when they have a grievance with Canada? They put the tariffs right back on. So Scott,

00:07:30.480 start looking for other places to sell your canola. I think that's the good thing. We don't need

00:07:35.600 Chinese EVs, but we do need a good deal and to sell our canola. It's worth billions and billions

00:07:40.400 of dollars. And it hurts Western Canada. I found it fascinating that when the tariffs went on vehicles

00:07:47.200 in Ontario, Carney was all aghast. But when the tariffs went on canola in Western Canada, he didn't do

00:07:54.000 a damn thing about it. There is a bit of a deal there. But these tariffs will come back, Scott.

00:07:59.680 But can't team Canada is dead. You've got Ford pissed off at Carney and you've got Alberta threatening

00:08:08.160 to leave. You've got Quebec threatening to leave and you've got Saskatchewan waiting in line to leave.

00:08:16.960 Now, the other thing that I heard about were these so-called memorandums of understanding that

00:08:24.960 Carney signed with Z. Now, these were apparently things that had run out, so they just re-upped them again.

00:08:30.560 Signed these memorandums of understanding, which mean absolutely nothing. And when I heard memorandums

00:08:35.440 of understanding, I immediately thought of the one that Carney signed with Danielle Smith.

00:08:40.400 Which, just like the ones that Carney signed with Z, aren't worth the paper they're written on. They 0.93

00:08:45.920 accomplished nothing. Carney has done nothing in the last year to benefit you. Has he done anything to

00:08:53.520 help you? How's the cost of living? My short yesterday touched on this. How's the cost of living? How

00:09:00.560 are home prices? How many houses have we built? How is crime? How are, you know, all these things have not

00:09:05.360 gotten better? These are things that affect you. And he's done nothing to help you. This trade mission

00:09:14.800 to China really won't benefit you at all. Your taxes are still too high. Your healthcare is getting worse.

00:09:21.520 You can't afford groceries or it's getting harder all the time. Making ends meet are what you're

00:09:27.680 concerned about. And that's what Pierre Polyev needs to stick with.

00:09:31.200 His leadership review is coming up shortly in Calgary. I hope he makes it through.

00:09:40.480 I said and I made a prediction that somebody else might walk just before the convention to embarrass

00:09:46.000 him. I hope he makes it through. Because I think there could be good times ahead. But right now,

00:09:52.000 Team Canada is dead. Things aren't looking good in the Great White North. They really aren't.

00:09:59.920 Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed doing it. I'm going to go edit this.

00:10:07.600 Might go back to bed for a little bit. 2.20 in the morning now. I'm enjoying myself here in Panama. I

00:10:13.440 appreciate you sticking with me. It's a little harder to do videos here, I have to say. Harder to keep up on

00:10:19.280 things. I'll be back in Canada and in Alberta in my home in Calgary on the 22nd. Looking forward to the

00:10:26.640 big event coming up on the 26th at the BMO Centre. So excited about the way the petition signing is

00:10:33.280 going. Watch my video with Dennis Modry. Dennis, who has been working with Stay Free Alberta over

00:10:38.640 the years, has been there from the beginning. He's just blown away by the response to the petition

00:10:45.360 campaign. And by the way, I have been okayed and I've got my credentials to sign up people for the

00:10:51.520 petition. So I'll be talking about that and I'm going to be setting up a place in my community in

00:10:56.640 Southeast Calgary for people to sign up and to sign the petition very soon. And I've got a follow-up,

00:11:02.240 by the way. I want to tell you about this. I'll do this more, I think, today. I've got a follow-up

00:11:08.560 on the letter I wrote to the Senate Ethics Office regarding Paula Simon, Senator,

00:11:14.480 who slandered and hammered the independence movement out here. Just disgusting, disgraceful words. More 0.83

00:11:21.600 than 36,000 people have watched that video. If you haven't seen it, check it out. But I got a response

00:11:26.320 and I'll tell you what that was in a video coming up shortly. Thanks for watching. If you like the

00:11:31.360 video, give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'll see

00:11:35.360 you in the next one. And you know what I'm thinking? I'm sitting here right at the end of this. I forgot my

00:11:39.760 big blue mug. It's sitting up in my hotel room. But I raise it to you anyway. I tip my big blue mug to

00:11:45.120 you. I'll talk to you in the next one.
