John Bolton - Canada IS the 51st state

00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is Tuesday, February the 4th, 4.23am with the big

00:00:07.000 blue mug of coffee and rejoice! We averted disaster in the last 18 hours. Trudeau capitulated

00:00:15.160 and kissed Trump's ring and we're going to talk about that today. You've clicked on this video,

00:00:20.020 no doubt, because of its title. Canada is the 51st state. But before we get to that,

00:00:25.840 watch this. Canada is an independent country. We will never be the 51st state.

00:00:33.100 It's a nation and we do not aspire to be 51st state. Our two countries are good friends and

00:00:41.460 good neighbors and we're keen to work with the president on those things. But I'll tell you

00:00:45.820 what, we'll never be the 51st state. President-elect Trump has been needling you a bit, calling you

00:00:51.620 Governor Trudeau, talking about making Canada the 51st state. Did you have any interaction

00:00:55.720 with him today? No, not today. But that's not going to happen.

00:01:00.400 What are they making up there of the overtures and sort of trolling to Canada about being a part of

00:01:06.800 the United States? Well, I mean, the bottom line is not going to happen.

00:01:10.960 Canada will never be the 51st state. Just a few examples of Canadian politicians saying Canada

00:01:17.760 will never be the 51st state. But I contend we already are. Maybe not officially, but Donald

00:01:23.360 Trump controls our country now in a number of different ways. And folks, it's all good.

00:01:28.480 Now, battle it out in the comments if you think we're the 51st state. But it's said that, you know,

00:01:33.640 it's been said a lot actually about the United States and their southern border. If you don't

00:01:37.980 have a border, you don't have a country. Well, Donald Trump now controls our border because Trudeau

00:01:43.740 went and kissed his ring yesterday and gave Trump what he wanted. We've been saying it for weeks.

00:01:48.700 Close the border. It took Trudeau until the 11th hour to actually do it. Here's this tweet from

00:01:53.380 yesterday. Look at all the stuff that's happening because of Donald Trump. We're implementing our

00:01:58.060 $1.3 billion border plan, reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel,

00:02:03.480 enhanced coordination with our American partners, increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl.

00:02:08.340 Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.

00:02:12.740 In addition, Canada is making new commitments to appoint a fentanyl czar,

00:02:17.360 will list cartels as terrorists, ensure 24-7 eyes on the border, launch a Canada-U.S. joint

00:02:22.360 strike force to combat organized crime, fentanyl and money laundering. I've also signed new

00:02:27.600 intelligence directive on organized crime and fentanyl and will be backing it with $200 million.

00:02:33.780 Donald Trump got all of this done just by saying he's going to put tariffs on us. This is all good,

00:02:39.040 folks. This is a good thing. And shame on Trudeau for allowing it to come to this. He should have

00:02:43.840 done this years ago. I've been screaming for years. Most conservatives know the words,

00:02:48.240 Roxham Road. RCMP carrying the bags of people crossing over on our border. Federal government

00:02:53.440 under the liberals paying millions of dollars to put these people up in hotels. They shouldn't be

00:02:57.380 coming here. We had 1.2 million people coming to our country over the last year. Where are all these

00:03:02.480 people going? A lot of them into the United States. Not anymore. Donald Trump controls our

00:03:08.480 border, folks. Absolutely. Now, here's something you need to know. Do not allow the liberals

00:03:13.280 to do a victory lap or Team Canada to do a victory lap. Here's Christia Freeland 12 hours ago.

00:03:19.640 Bravo, Team Canada. Proof that we succeed when we're strong, smart and united. Together we'll get

00:03:25.140 through this. This has got nothing to do with Team Canada. This is all about Donald Trump.

00:03:28.560 Donald Trump put pressure on Trudeau and Trudeau had to bow down to him. And it's all good, folks.

00:03:34.040 Donald Trump controls our border. Now, the other thing Donald Trump has done, and I mentioned this

00:03:38.480 in a video, Donald Trump, Canada's greatest economic ally, he's had an incredibly great effect in less

00:03:45.960 than, what, two weeks now. He was inaugurated on January 20th, only February the 4th, and Donald Trump

00:03:52.060 has completely changed the way we think about our resources in this country. Now, just think of this,

00:03:57.000 and this, I've shown you this graphic before, an estimated $670 billion of investment lost in

00:04:04.120 ditched resource projects since Trudeau became Prime Minister. That's two-thirds of a trillion

00:04:09.580 dollars, folks. If we'd have had this investment, you, as a Canadian, would probably have a solid gold

00:04:15.860 pool in your backyard, but all of this money has been lost. But everything's changed now because

00:04:21.440 of Donald Trump. Because Donald Trump said he was going to put 25% tariffs on us. Oh my God,

00:04:26.020 we've got to do something to protect ourself from this happening again in the future. And how

00:04:30.160 has that happened? Well, here's another graphic. Energy East Pipeline. Debate resurfaces amid push

00:04:35.820 from premiers. Energy East may be the nation-building mega-project Canada needs right now.

00:04:42.400 Here's New Brunswick's Premier Houston. Houston urges feds to immediately approve Energy East Pipeline.

00:04:48.300 Western Standard. Nova Scotia calls for immediate Energy East Pipeline approval.

00:04:52.440 Northern Gateway Pipeline. Indigenous leader now backs revival of Northern Gateway Pipeline.

00:04:59.480 Adam Pankratz from the National Post. We must harness the newfound enthusiasm for energy

00:05:04.640 projects to boost our economy and lift First Nations out of poverty.

00:05:07.720 Now, the other thing that we need to know about this is that this has completely changed the

00:05:13.120 Liberals. And it shows them the dinosaurs that they already are. These people who have been all

00:05:17.460 about the carbon tax. Mark Carney, the carbon tax is too low. He's had a complete change on this.

00:05:23.260 And they're scrapping the carbon tax in the face of Donald Trump as well. Now,

00:05:28.100 Polly have has put a lot of pressure on him. But because of Donald Trump, the Liberals are changing

00:05:32.760 their minds as well. They voted in favor of this. They've been put the carbon tax on everything for

00:05:36.760 years, costing you thousands and thousands of dollars. Here's one. Freeland and Carney maybe

00:05:42.440 ax the tax. Now, Carney says he'll scrap the carbon tax, introduce green incentive program if he becomes

00:05:47.360 leader. Again, he's a dinosaur. He's out of step with the rest of the world on this, folks. And here's

00:05:51.860 Freeland. She wants to scrap the carbon tax. So he has changed everything. Donald Trump has changed

00:05:57.960 Canada in so many positive ways in two weeks where Justin Trudeau has made us go backwards for 10

00:06:05.420 years. We need to get rid of these Liberals. We need to get rid of them now. And again, we do not

00:06:10.880 want to give them a chance to do a victory lap. I'm talking about the Liberals. I'm talking about

00:06:14.980 Trudeau. I'm talking about Team Canada. It had nothing to do with them. It's all because of Donald

00:06:21.040 Trump. And I might say, Danielle Smith. Here's Stephen Taylor today. And this is all over the

00:06:26.580 internet. Daniel Smith was trending this morning. Can we get some love for Premier Danielle Smith who

00:06:30.920 never stopped working her diplomatic connections to help Alberta and Canada? Unless Donald Trump

00:06:35.740 comes out and says Daniel Smith had an effect on his thoughts on Canada. We'll never know the effect

00:06:43.060 of Danielle Smith. But I believe she got us a reprieve to February 1st. And I think she's had a big

00:06:48.520 part in getting us to the point where we are right now where Donald Trump might be thinking

00:06:52.500 differently, particularly about Canada when it comes to our oil. Now, something else that we do

00:06:57.800 not want to forget and something that needs to be done. National Post with an article. This was

00:07:02.760 just yesterday. Put Canada first. Recall Parliament. Now, because we've got a 30... I'll just kick my

00:07:07.500 camera. Because we've got a 30-day reprieve does not mean we do not have to have Parliament come back.

00:07:12.920 It needs to be returned right now. And as they say in this article, it is unconscionable to leave the

00:07:18.940 House of Commons shuttered during this crisis. This is still a crisis, folks. I don't know what

00:07:23.920 Donald Trump is thinking up right now. What he may be thinking for the next 30 days on what else

00:07:28.100 he can squeeze out of Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party in Canada. And we need to have

00:07:32.940 Parliament back now. In fact, we need to have an election now. Let me know what you think in the

00:07:39.100 comments. I do appreciate you watching. Please give me a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel.
