00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is Monday, January the 26th. It is 322 AM. I hope
00:00:10.240 you're having a wonderful start to your Monday. I'm here with the big blue mug of coffee and I
00:00:16.180 just checked. I am this close to 45,000 subscribers, this close. So if you were to click on subscribe
00:00:22.280 right now, you might get me over the top. And remember, clicking on the big blue mug
00:00:27.700 does not subscribe you to the channel. Click on the button below. Thank you.
00:00:31.820 So this video is a little bit of a follow-up to yesterday's video, which by the way, this morning
00:00:37.740 at three o'clock had about 50,000 views. So thanks for watching it. If you watched it,
00:00:42.100 if you haven't, I'll put a card at the end so you can check it out. It was called
00:00:44.860 Trump owns Canada. So it's kind of a, this is kind of a theme I've got going over the couple of days
00:00:50.100 right now. I'm sitting yesterday. I'm watching YouTube. This might get a little weird. This
00:00:56.720 might get a little bit weird. I'm watching YouTube yesterday afternoon, waiting for the
00:01:02.820 NFL highlights to come up and I'm keeping track of what's going on. And I see a couple of what you
00:01:09.460 could say are extraordinary videos. And when I saw these videos, I thought, you know, you're starting
00:01:17.640 to see the cracks form in Mark Carney and his government. You're starting to see the wheels
00:01:22.260 fall off Mark Carney and the liberal government. And they were videos from number one, Secretary of
00:01:31.100 the Treasury, Scott Bessent under the Trump administration on ABC this week, talking about
00:01:36.240 Canada dealing with China. But the second video is an absolutely scathing rebuke of what the Carney
00:01:45.080 government is doing right now. It is Brian Kingston, president and CEO of the Canadian Vehicle
00:01:51.040 Manufacturers Association. And standing behind him is Doug Ford, premier of Ontario. And he just
00:01:58.760 rips the Carney government a strip. Now I've said here on this channel before that what Carney's doing
00:02:05.240 is managed decline, that the country has got to hit rock bottom before there will ever be any relief
00:02:13.540 for Canada. And I don't think you're seeing rock bottom right now. Things are going to get worse.
00:02:19.120 But the thing that really came through my mind, this is the weird part. I was thinking, I don't know
00:02:25.560 if there was something in the water when I was in Panama that got me thinking this way, but I'm
00:02:29.660 thinking, watching what's going on here. Do liberal voters enjoy the pain? Do liberal voters enjoy the
00:02:41.080 pain? Not only that, but are they? Now get your mind out of the gutter when I say this. Are they
00:02:46.320 masochists? Because you must be enjoying what's going on right now. Now, before you jump to conclusions,
00:02:53.040 I'm talking about the section in blue here, not the one above. Okay. A person who enjoys an activity
00:03:00.100 that appears to be painful or tedious, because you seem to be enjoying this. And you're enjoying it
00:03:06.520 because you put all the blame on Donald Trump. Now, the other thing I want to know is,
00:03:11.780 generally, when you talk about the M, there's something that comes before that.
00:03:17.860 Is Mark Carney enjoying doing this to you? Is he the S part of the S and M? Because he seems to
00:03:25.480 inflict the pain and you're enjoying what's going on here. That's the way I see it right now. So what
00:03:32.660 I'm going to do is I'm going to show you these clips. We'll show you Scott Bessent first, treasury
00:03:36.560 secretary of the United States on ABC this week, and hear what he has to say. And then we'll come
00:03:42.360 back and we'll hear from Brian Kingston. And it'll knock your socks off if you haven't seen it.
00:03:49.880 Some industry-specific tariffs on Chinese goods. And we have a highly integrated market with Canada,
00:03:58.880 sometimes in autos, which he dropped the EB tariff, I believe, from 100% to 6%.
00:04:03.960 The goods can cross the border during the manufacturing process six times. And we can't
00:04:10.260 let Canada become an opening that the Chinese pour their cheap goods into the U.S. We have
00:04:17.380 a U.S. MCA agreement. But based on that, which is going to be renegotiated this summer,
00:04:23.660 and I'm not sure what Prime Minister Carney is doing here, other than trying to virtue signal
00:04:29.460 to his globalist friends at Davos, I don't think he's doing the best job for the Canadian people.
00:04:34.580 There will be some of you who will dismiss what Scott Bessent, the treasury secretary,
00:04:38.920 says there because you just don't like Donald Trump. But you have to understand and you have
00:04:43.480 to start listening that the Trump administration does not want China to get a foothold to have
00:04:47.900 influence here in North America. They'll have none of it. Now, I am not trying to defend everything
00:04:53.960 the Trump administration does. I think a lot of what they do is really harmful.
00:05:00.620 But I can think both ways here. I understand where they're coming from.
00:05:06.200 Now, you may dismiss what Scott Bessent says, but are you willing to dismiss something that's
00:05:12.720 coming from a little closer to home? Because the call now is coming from inside the house.
00:05:18.020 Hello, good morning. My name is Brian Kingston. I'm the president and CEO of the Canadian Vehicle
00:05:23.900 Manufacturers Association. Canada's auto industry is under enormous pressure. With over 90%
00:05:30.600 of Canadian production destined for the United States, there is no industry without U.S. access
00:05:37.280 and North American integration. Diversification is not an option for automotive, as markets in Europe
00:05:45.160 and Asia are better served by assembly plants in those regions. Canada's market alone is too small
00:05:51.900 to justify large-scale manufacturing. The future of Canada's auto industry and the hundreds of thousands
00:05:58.700 of jobs that it supports depends on securing our trade relationship with the United States. The federal
00:06:05.720 government's decision to open the Canadian market to Chinese EVs is deeply concerning. The Canada-China
00:06:12.680 strategic partnership has the potential to undermine Canada's auto sector and presents risk to the
00:06:18.860 future of our integrated North American automotive supply chain. As the premier has outlined, it is
00:06:26.120 critical that the federal government rectifies this situation by taking immediate action to bolster the
00:06:32.600 competitiveness of the very companies that have been building cars and employing Canadians for over 100
00:06:38.680 years. Step one is repealing the costly and redundant EV sales mandate. Under the new Canada-China strategic
00:06:47.800 partnership, Chinese manufacturers that do not build cars in Canada or employ Canadians will receive up to
00:06:55.160 $980 million per year in compliance credits. These compliance credits will be paid for by the very
00:07:02.760 companies that operate here, taking money that could be reinvested in Canada, in Ontario and sending it to
00:07:09.800 China. Step two is taking action to make Canada more competitive for auto. We must urgently lower the cost of
00:07:18.200 investing in plants, machinery and R&D to give Canada an edge over other jurisdictions. The future of
00:07:25.960 Canada's auto industry hangs in the balance. The actions that we take now will determine whether or not we have
00:07:32.680 an industry for 100 more years. If you just saw that for the first time, your jaw probably dropped down.
00:07:39.400 There's Doug Ford, who all but endorsed Mark Carney during the election campaign. He's really pissed off over this.
00:07:45.560 And let me put this into perspective. What's happening right now with the automotive industry, and what was
00:07:52.440 discussed in the video you just watched, has been happening to the Alberta oil industry for years. And the oil industry in
00:07:58.840 Alberta dwarfs the automotive industry in Ontario. Half a trillion dollars of our resources have been
00:08:06.600 left in the ground because of what the Liberals have been doing to us. This is why we have an independence
00:08:10.840 movement, at least one of the reasons. He goes on to say there at the end that the automotive industry
00:08:17.560 is under threat. Bassett said, Carney's not doing what's right for the Canadian people, and he is
00:08:22.920 virtue signaling for his global friends at Davos. And I think that's a pretty good way to sum it up.
00:08:31.480 Let me put it to you this way. And you know, I said this yesterday. If there were an election held
00:08:36.040 today, those people who I call masochists, who are enjoying the pain, would vote for Mark Carney. They're
00:08:42.840 enjoying this because of their hatred for Donald Trump. I've said here before, it's not Trump's fault we're in the
00:08:50.440 situation we're in. It's the Liberals' fault. And would we be going through this right now if Mark Carney had
00:08:58.120 succeeded in the job he was elected to do? Get a deal with the United States of America. And I want to know where we
00:09:06.760 stand on that. Why do we not have some intrepid reporter standing up to Mark Carney saying, listen, Mark, where do we
00:09:12.760 stand when it comes to negotiations with the United States of America right now? I know we're supposed
00:09:16.920 to renegotiate Kuzma, I think, sometime in the summer, but that's months away. Things could get a lot worse
00:09:23.980 before then. Jobs are being lost here. Sounds like a little bit of an urgency for Mr. Kingston from the
00:09:30.480 Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers Association. But I was thinking about the clip that became viral.
00:09:35.940 And you'll remember the clip. And here it is right here. It's Mark Carney. He's asked a question about
00:09:43.680 trade negotiations with the United States of America. And everybody focused on the first two
00:09:49.480 words that came out of his mouth. But it's what came directly after that that's important
00:09:53.620 to listen to here and hear what he says here. Here we go.
00:09:57.660 Who cares? I mean, it's a detail. It's a detail. I spoke to him. I'll speak to him again when it
00:10:03.620 matters. I mean, I'll speak to him again when it matters. Well, what is it going to matter?
00:10:10.200 How many wheels have to fall off the cart before it matters? Does it not matter right now?
00:10:14.720 And people who follow this guy, the Carney cult, the people who follow Mark, the Marxists,
00:10:22.240 I guess we could call them. Are you enjoying this? Because it doesn't seem like he thinks this is of
00:10:29.000 any urgency whatsoever. So let me ask you again. Do you enjoy the pain, liberal voters?
00:10:38.240 That's what I would like to know. Because it seems that you do. And maybe you should start thinking a
00:10:45.040 little bit differently. And, you know, there's something I learned from being in broadcasting over
00:10:48.880 the years. You learn a lot more from listening than you do from talking. Mark Carney talks a whole
00:10:54.220 lot. He talked a whole lot at Davos, but he doesn't seem to be listening to what's going on here
00:11:00.100 because I think he enjoys inflicting the pain. Let me know what you think. If you like the video,
00:11:07.500 give it a thumbs up, subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'll see you in the next one.
