Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is Monday, the 12th of May, 4.57 a.m. with the big blue mug of coffee.
00:00:07.460
And today I want to be a little ray of sunshine for you on what seems to be a very rainy day right across Canada.
00:00:16.080
And on a rainy day here in Calgary in the soon-to-be Republic of Alberta.
00:00:21.000
You know, I was saying prior to the election to my wife, I've done very well on this channel since I really started doing videos.
00:00:28.200
It's early December. I had about 400 subscribers and I just passed 31,000. I am so grateful that you're here.
00:00:35.060
But I said to her, after the election, I expect the views on my videos to drop down a lot.
00:00:39.960
And I've actually seen some of the bigger YouTubers in the country watching their views drop a lot.
00:00:44.500
And I understand that 100%. It's so depressing.
00:00:47.680
I've been there before following other election campaigns where I was so into the election.
00:00:52.340
And then when my candidate lost, I wanted to tune out because I was depressed.
00:00:55.960
And I hope I could bring a ray of sunshine to you today.
00:00:58.660
But a lot of people are melting down online as the Liberals get closer and closer to a majority.
00:01:10.120
We have some breaking news on the election front.
00:01:12.480
CTV News has confirmed with multiple sources that the Quebec riding of Terrebonne has flipped to the Liberals.
00:01:19.060
A judicial recount shows the Liberals have won the riding by just one single vote over the Bloc Quebecois.
00:01:26.280
That brings the Liberals' seat count in the Parliament to 170.
00:01:31.160
Just two seats shy, less than what is needed for a majority government.
00:01:36.220
I still intend to bring a ray of sunshine to your life on a pretty dark and rainy day in Canada.
00:01:43.360
The Liberals getting closer to that majority and people are upset about it.
00:01:49.180
I think I said back maybe the 29th of April, the 30th, just after the election.
00:01:54.700
I think the Liberals will eventually get their majority.
00:01:57.440
I don't know whether it will be through recount.
00:01:59.840
But I think a couple of NDPers, and it only needs to be a couple now, will walk across the aisle and join their brethren on the left.
00:02:09.180
Actually, if you look at the Elections Canada website as of this morning, they haven't updated it.
00:02:13.200
It's still at 169 for the Liberals, 144 for the Conservatives.
00:02:18.360
It's been amazing to watch how this has been perceived by the right and Conservatives in Canada online.
00:02:25.720
People losing their freaking minds over this one vote that changed this riding from Bloc Quebecois to the Liberal Party.
00:02:33.760
Here's just a smattering of what I captured online this morning.
00:02:36.840
As you look at these tweets, I actually had these in a folder called Stealing for this video today.
00:02:45.740
All these people saying that Elections Canada stole this riding for the Liberals by one vote.
00:02:51.200
Lots of people saying online as well, one vote can make a difference, so make sure you vote.
00:02:54.760
I want to know who that person is that switched this riding.
00:02:58.640
But my Conservative friends, you either trust the recounts or you don't.
00:03:01.780
But here's Real Albanian Pat. I believe these numbers are correct.
00:03:05.400
The Liberals, after recount, have picked up three seats.
00:03:09.740
So the recounts have been a benefit to the Conservatives at this point.
00:03:13.700
I think what really hurts here and why there's so much darkness right now if you're a Conservative,
00:03:38.100
And then Apolleyev just couldn't stop winning until he didn't win and lost his own seat.
00:03:46.160
Which leads us to the light at the end of the tunnel.
00:03:50.600
The dawn after the darkness where we are right now.
00:03:54.660
However, if Carney doesn't get the majority and get those extra two seats,
00:03:59.140
he's going to rule like he has a majority for the next couple of years.
00:04:02.540
There will be an election 18 months to two years out.
00:04:09.520
I think a lot of the boomers who voted for the elbows up thing
00:04:12.140
will give their head a shake realizing that the economy is not getting better.
00:04:15.740
And maybe they should think a little bit more about their kids and their grandchildren
00:04:19.540
and their futures as opposed to being comfy in their paid-off homes with their boats and their pensions.
00:04:25.720
And as an Alberta separatist, anything the Liberals do over the next year will have a referendum vote here.
00:04:36.580
Because a lot of people here will realize that Liberal rule doesn't do any good for Canada.
00:04:43.400
But I saw this on smalldeadanimals.com this morning.
00:04:46.780
If you don't like politically incorrect stuff, don't go there because it'll probably piss you off.
00:04:52.660
But I saw this at smalldeadanimals this morning.
00:04:58.740
Canada's GST no longer covers the interest on its national debt.
00:05:03.040
I've mentioned here before we pay more than a billion dollars every week to service our debt.
00:05:10.400
So I can see the Liberals raising the GST back up.
00:05:15.680
Harper brought it down a couple of percentage points.
00:05:18.240
I can see them raising the GST over the next couple of years because they need your money, folks, to pay for all of their big government.
00:05:29.220
Housing program, $130 billion more deficit spending than Trudeau.
00:05:50.120
Had dinner with people over the house yesterday.
