00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel, 8.14 a.m., Friday, August the 7th. I hope
00:00:07.960 you're having a great Friday. Thank you so much for being here today. I'm going to make
00:00:10.860 this one short, but I want to update an old saying that we don't hear very much anymore,
00:00:16.480 and I'm going to update this saying specifically for Canadians. That in just a moment. Now,
00:00:24.060 what is the saying we're going to update today? Well, the saying is bleeding heart liberal. Now,
00:00:29.380 what is a bleeding heart liberal? A bleeding heart liberal is a critical political label. It
00:00:34.760 describes a person with left-wing views who shows extreme or naive sympathy for the poor. I would
00:00:40.020 focus on the naive sympathy part here. The needy and marginalized groups, critics use the term to
00:00:46.380 suggest that such compassion is overly emotional, financially irresponsible, and reliant on
00:00:52.480 impractical government programs. And I would agree with that. We don't use this saying very
00:00:57.120 much anymore. Bleeding heart liberal. And what got me thinking about this today is a story that
00:01:02.300 popped out. Now, just before I get to that story, I don't think it's a stretch to say that
00:01:06.980 Canada is hemorrhaging cash. We spend far more than we have. Carney walks out on a daily basis.
00:01:14.160 He's spreading around hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions. Deficit this year,
00:01:19.120 65, $70 billion. Our debt is ridiculous. We're spending more on interest to service our debt
00:01:25.180 in a year than we spend on health care, which is terrible. But here's the story that came up that
00:01:30.020 got me thinking about this new phrase and this new saying to update it in just a moment. This
00:01:35.120 story right here, Kearney government restores some health coverage it had cut for refugees.
00:01:40.360 The Kearney government has quietly walked back some of its cuts to a program providing temporary
00:01:45.680 health care coverage to refugees and asylum seekers. Now, the thing about these refugees 1.00
00:01:50.820 and asylum seekers is, we don't know that they are actually what they claim to be. We, 1.00
00:01:55.900 in many cases, don't know who they are. There's no proof at all that they are a refugee
00:01:59.660 or an asylum seeker. And this is a concern to people like you and me who don't want our money
00:02:05.860 going to people who don't deserve it. And you see a response like this online, very logical response
00:02:12.480 from Jamie Sarkinack, unproven asylum seekers will once again get free items and services like 0.99
00:02:19.120 feeding supplies, respiratory devices, implantable hearing aids, nursing homes, and hospital-based
00:02:25.500 rehabilitation. It's embarrassing that we've been made into a health resort for the developing 1.00
00:02:31.400 world. And I would agree with Jamie Sarkinack. An update on that saying in just a moment. 1.00
00:02:36.580 Then you got somebody like this, retired person. This is what you would normally call a bleeding
00:02:41.780 heart liberal. They're refugees. Are we supposed to abandon them? If we accept them, it's our moral 1.00
00:02:47.760 duty to help them succeed. When they succeed, Canada succeeds. But we do not know who these
00:02:53.300 people are. They are not properly vetted. We do not know if these people are refugees
00:02:56.880 and asylum seekers. And then you get a fool like this guy. You know who Andrew Coyne is, 1.00
00:03:02.740 responding to the Toronto Star story I just told you about. Good. But of course, we've solved all
00:03:09.960 the problems here in Canada. Over 23,500 patients died on medical wait lists last year. And then
00:03:17.740 you get this. Canada's median health care wait time hits 28.6 weeks, second longest ever recorded.
00:03:24.380 People who've lived here their whole lives in paid taxes are struggling when it comes to health care
00:03:29.220 and other services, and we're providing these things for refugees and asylum seekers, and they 1.00
00:03:34.600 can't even prove who they are. So you remember our original saying here, bleeding heart liberal? 1.00
00:03:42.360 I'm updating it here, folks, because it fits the moment. Bleeding elbows, liberals. What do you
00:03:49.740 think? Elbows up, folks. If you like the video, give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel,
00:03:55.880 ring the bell for notifications. I'll see you in the next one.
