Canadians are sick and tired of the current state of affairs in our country. Canada's justice system is broken and we need to do something about it. Canada needs to do more than just give people the chance to apply for early release.

00:00:00.400 Hi there, it's John and welcome to the channel. I hope you're having a great day today. I certainly am.
00:00:06.060 And I wasn't going to do another video today, but I thought it would be rather interesting because I was sitting in my backyard
00:00:12.600 with my two cats on my back deck. A thunderstorm was about to roll into Calgary, apparently.
00:00:18.220 And I started looking at what was going on in the news today. And there's lots of stuff going on.
00:00:22.840 We've got Israel and Iran at each other's throats right now. Missiles are falling all over the place. 0.98
00:00:28.560 You've got still a war between Russia and Ukraine. You've got the G7 going on right now.
00:00:35.660 But I opened up the National Post and I saw all of these headlines. I said, what the hell is going on?
00:00:42.240 You know, Polyev said Canada is broken. He said it during the election campaign. The liberals and
00:00:48.440 their elbows up people hammered him for saying that Canada is broken. And it is broken, folks.
00:00:54.160 All of these stories prove that it's an absolute freaking mess. And the final one in my hand right
00:00:59.460 here is the kicker. Okay. So all of these things, they pale in comparison to wars going on.
00:01:05.200 But I just can't believe that this is the state of the country we live in right now. Canada
00:01:09.100 is broken. But carry on, folks. Everything's just fine. We've got Mark Carney and the Liberal Party.
00:01:14.480 So let's just take a look at some of the headlines in the National Post. Here we go. First story.
00:01:20.040 Tasha Kiriden Carney knows he has to choose Trump over China. And of course, we know that Mark Carney,
00:01:25.720 if he had his choice, he'd much rather be dealing with China, who he is good friends with,
00:01:31.000 other than our biggest trading partner. But that's just a small thing. Moving on here.
00:01:35.140 Now, I'm not getting into these stories deeply. I will put a link to every one of these stories
00:01:39.080 in the description below. Because if I was going to talk about these at any length, this video would
00:01:45.360 go on forever. Chris Selle, no jail time for accessory to a killing. Is anyone okay with this?
00:01:51.720 No. And there's more stories about the stupidity of our justice system in Canada just in the National
00:01:58.020 Post over the last hour. This is absolutely ridiculous. Moving on here. This is a story I
00:02:03.040 told you about this morning. Get in touch with your MP and tell them, and tell your Conservative
00:02:08.700 MPs do not vote in favor of Bill C-5. Mark Carney is demanding power to suspend all federal laws.
00:02:17.000 What will he use it for? Watch my video from this morning for more in-depth coverage of this one.
00:02:22.580 But here's a follow-up to this story. Federal government reserves right to block major projects
00:02:27.360 if conditions not met. LeBlanc. So Mark Carney is looking for sweeping powers for five years
00:02:33.520 to quickly approve natural resource and infrastructure projects. But the liberals will
00:02:38.740 have complete control over this, and there will be no oversight whatsoever. This is absolutely
00:02:44.020 ridiculous. Is this actually a democratic country? Moving on. Anti-Israel activists beg their
00:02:50.480 genocidal government for a rescue. So all of these Canadians go over. They want to stop the war in 0.81
00:02:56.020 Gaza, and they get thrown out of Egypt, detained, and now they're screaming for Ottawa to bail them out.
00:03:02.300 Well, I say, let them rot in a prison in Egypt. F-A-F-O. Moving on. The Globe and Mail dismisses
00:03:08.960 threat from Iran to bash Israel. Now, this is Canada's newspaper of record. The Globe and Mail
00:03:14.260 is disingenuous to claim there's no looming nuclear weapons threat from Iran. Of course, 0.99
00:03:21.220 the Globe and Mail would take the terrorist side. Moving on. Carney announces billions in funding for
00:03:26.940 Ukraine at the G7 meeting. Apparently, it's $2 billion. They had a meeting with Zelensky this
00:03:33.820 morning in Kananaskis at the G7. I want to know, Mr. Carney, if this is in the budget. Oh, never mind.
00:03:42.100 Moving on. Masked men tried to steal vehicle from Ontario Premier Doug Ford's home. Now,
00:03:47.760 I've seen videos online of Doug Ford losing his s**t because of this. I think it's because of this.
00:03:54.780 Going on how people have a right to defend themselves if their home is being invaded or
00:03:59.120 somebody's trying to take their stuff. But this is happening in Canada. The Premier's car.
00:04:05.040 What is going on? Moving on. Penny Boudreau, who strangled her 12-year-old daughter,
00:04:11.120 tries for early release. How is this even possible?
00:04:14.080 Her 20-year life sentence for killing her only child, Carissa, is up in 2028. She should be in
00:04:20.900 prison for the rest of her life. And finally, Danielle Smith did the right thing regarding the
00:04:26.460 shots that everybody knows about that don't do what they're supposed to do. Safe and effective is what
00:04:32.620 we're told. Health Canada won't fight Alberta's plan to charge for COVID vaccines. You want a COVID
00:04:38.080 vaccine in Alberta? Pay for it. Last year, a million doses. I think it cost $135 million
00:04:46.280 to throw out these shots last year in Alberta alone. And Danielle Smith is taking it on the 1.00
00:04:54.080 chin for this. Well done, Madam Premier. And here's the kicker. I went to Walmart this morning to buy
00:05:00.020 one single liter of cream and it cost me $4.13. All of this stupidity going on in the news
00:05:10.040 and people are still lining up at food banks and it's getting harder and harder every day to afford
00:05:15.620 food. I know it's just absolutely ridiculous that all of this from the National Post within the last
00:05:22.540 hour. Thanks for watching. If you liked the video, please give it a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel.
00:05:27.240 I didn't mention I've got my big blue mug. Also ring the bell for notifications and I'll see you in the next one.
