Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel. It is 6.06 a.m. on Monday, March the 17th.
00:00:06.060
Happy St. Patrick's Day, by the way. Big blue mug of coffee.
00:00:09.260
And today, stick with me. I don't want to make this video very long.
00:00:12.460
I want to tie a few things together for you. I'm going to make a couple of predictions here as well.
00:00:16.440
I'm going to start off by saying that Mark Carney and the Liberal Party are playing 4D chess right now,
00:00:21.600
and Pierre Polyev is playing checkers, and he better be prepared,
00:00:25.080
because something big is coming down the line, and I think it's going to happen over the next few days.
00:00:31.760
So let's look at what's happened over the last 3-4 months.
00:00:37.720
So Polyev, his whole plan was to go into a carbon tax election.
00:00:44.800
Carbon tax is gone, regardless of what you think.
00:00:50.980
But there's not going to be a carbon tax election.
00:00:55.820
Mark Carney and the Liberals are going to make this a climate change election.
00:01:02.520
And they're going to turn this around on Pierre Polyev and say he has no climate plan.
00:01:18.740
So we'll build pipelines, which is great for our economy, because we're building things.
00:01:23.060
Let's get all that fuel to the coast and ship it off around the world to cut carbon emissions around the world.
00:01:35.760
Why is he going to the EU right now and not talking with the United States of America?
00:01:44.160
I'm going to tie a bunch of things together for you here and find out how this could be perilous for Polyev and the Conservative Party.
00:01:59.420
You know, the oil and gas sector in Canada produces more than a quarter of our emissions.
00:02:04.800
So just and that's in the production and transportation of oil and gas, not the actual use of oil and gas.
00:02:09.480
Gas in our cars used to heat some homes and other things.
00:02:12.620
So we can't meet our ultimate objectives, which is to get to net zero emissions, which, by the way, is what we have to do to prevent the wildfires and the other climatic events from getting worse.
00:02:26.780
We can't get there unless we do not just have a cap on emissions, but those emissions are brought effectively to zero.
00:02:43.080
So Mark Carney is completely against the oil and gas industry.
00:02:51.180
Maybe I should put my Lexit hat on for this one.
00:02:56.580
So let's follow along with Mark Carney as he takes his trip for Europe.
00:03:04.380
We've got our biggest trade partner just south of the border.
00:03:13.520
Let's follow along with Mark Carney over the last 12 to 18 hours.
00:03:18.560
Oh, he reposted that the Irish Embassy of Canada.
00:03:22.260
He was out for the 200th Montreal St. Patrick's Day Parade.
00:03:26.920
Oh, he's glad handing with the people in Montreal.
00:03:35.900
During a crisis, serious leadership means working together and focusing on the things we can control.
00:03:41.740
He's with Francois Legault, who's the Premier of Quebec, who he desperately needs to be on his side because he needs the votes in Quebec.
00:03:49.980
They're focused on protecting the Quebec economy and building for a stronger future.
00:03:53.580
Now, Legault is against pipelines coming from Alberta, going through his province.
00:03:59.600
Mark Carney is against that as well, by the way.
00:04:02.120
And as you see, Mark Carney's not sat down with Danielle Smith, who does not like him because she sees Mark Carney as a threat to Alberta.
00:04:12.920
He also hasn't got anybody from Alberta in his cabinet.
00:04:20.360
Prime Minister Carney departs for his foreign trip.
00:04:26.820
So there is the Prime Minister of Canada, not my Prime Minister, talking with Macron from France.
00:04:34.940
Oh, I had an excellent call with President von der Leyen about the road ahead for Canada-EU trade.
00:04:41.920
Canada and Europe are strong, reliable partners and a shifting global economy.
00:04:48.500
We're ready to secure new transatlantic business opportunities together.
00:04:52.400
So for those of you who don't know who von der Leyen is, this is von der Leyen right here.
00:04:58.580
She stands with Ukraine and she is the President of the European Union.
00:05:05.520
Let's put a couple of clips together and let's find out about Ursula a little bit and what she believes about things like, well, like Mark Carney believes.
00:05:14.200
Just keep in mind that in less than three decades, we want to reach net zero.
00:05:27.500
We will follow through with our ambitious trade agenda.
00:05:30.680
For clean tech, to deliver net zero globally, there will be a need for strong and resilient supply chains.
00:05:43.740
So we will seek to conclude new trade agreements with Chile, with Mexico, with New Zealand, with Australia.
00:05:51.160
We will do everything to progress with India, with Indonesia.
00:05:54.960
And we have a unique window of opportunity now to take forward finally the EU-Mercosur agreement.
00:06:08.900
She believes exactly what Mark Carney believes in net zero.
00:06:16.280
She lines out a plan, four points, on how they're going to get to net zero.
00:06:22.060
Deregulation, training people to build batteries for the most part, and trade.
00:06:26.800
And this is why Mark Carney has gone to the European Union.
00:06:32.320
So what does the European Union believe on trade?
00:06:37.080
I got to this directly from the European Union website, the Coalition of Trade Ministers on Climate.
00:06:42.620
And if you go down here to the bottom, it's got their priorities.
00:06:46.240
Foster international cooperation and collective action to promote trade and trade policies
00:06:50.680
that pursue climate action across the World Trade Organization
00:06:54.180
and relevant multilateral, plurilateral, regional, and sectoral initiatives.
00:07:00.380
Identify ways to ensure the multilateral trading system contributes to the global response to climate change
00:07:06.280
and promotes a positive contribution to the climate agenda,
00:07:10.520
including through focused attention across sectors on the nexus between climate and trade.
00:07:19.780
Let's go to his website and find out what Mark Carney believes.
00:07:22.660
He wants to help make Canadian companies more competitive so that Canada can leapfrog the United States
00:07:28.100
in international markets and introduce trade measures to ensure fairness for Canadian industries
00:07:33.360
in the global economy and to ally with those countries engaged in the fight against climate change.
00:07:42.620
he also said that he would work with other like-minded countries to introduce a carbon border adjustment,
00:07:49.420
effectively a tariff that would ensure countries with weaker climate change policies face financial barriers
00:07:58.060
Why did Mark Carney go to the European Union before the United States?
00:08:01.620
Because he's going to come back with a trade deal with the EU over the next few days.
00:08:05.060
And he's going to wave it around and he's going to stick it in pure Polyev's face and say,
00:08:11.660
My climate plan deals with trade with dozens of different countries.
00:08:16.900
And we've made ourselves less reliant on the United States
00:08:20.580
because they don't deal with carbon border adjustments.
00:08:24.580
Anything that's going to come from the United States into Canada
00:08:26.900
is going to get a tariff on it because it doesn't live up to Canada
00:08:30.240
and the EU's policy when it comes to climate change.
00:08:45.740
The EU-Canada partnership is strong, dynamic, and built to last.
00:08:54.560
Carney's plan is completely eliminate our oil and gas.
00:08:59.440
We're getting closer to separation and the destruction of Canada right now.
00:09:03.000
While people are going to vote Liberal to save us from the States,
00:09:06.500
we need to be saved from Mark Carney and the Liberal Party
00:09:08.580
because the destruction of Canada, the groundwork is being laid right now.
00:09:12.720
And finally, I'm going to make a crazy prediction here,
00:09:17.680
but if he gets this deal, he does not want people to find out who he is.
00:09:24.200
He's going to come back and maybe next week after prorogation is over,
00:09:30.640
and play climate change as his main attack on Polyev,
00:09:36.480
who has been wanting to have a carbon tax election for more than two years.
00:09:41.120
