John Bolton - Gaslight, Lie, Harm - It's The Liberal Thing To Do

00:00:00.000 I can announce today that we are on track to balance the operating budget next year,

00:00:05.960 one year ahead of schedule, while maintaining the lowest overall definition of the 27th.

00:00:19.520 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel.

00:00:21.760 Six o'clock in the morning, Sunday, September the 27th.

00:00:24.900 I hope you're having a great Sunday and a fantastic weekend.

00:00:27.260 I tip the big blue mug of coffee to you today. And more on that clip off the top in just a moment,

00:00:33.960 okay? I think what I'm going to do in post-production is put the letters L-I-A-R

00:00:38.180 right across that video because Mark Carney is lying to Canadians. More on that in just a moment,

00:00:43.280 okay? Now, I don't want this channel to be a recurring theme of the absolute march of Canada

00:00:50.820 to its destruction led by Mark Carney, the Liberal Party in Ottawa, but that's what's going on right

00:00:55.700 now. It's impossible to ignore. The material is there day after day after day. A lot of it has

00:01:02.720 really wrapped up since Mark Carney and the liberals deep-sixed that deal with the United

00:01:08.560 States on trade a few weeks ago. It's all their own fault, and it's the people who support this.

00:01:13.400 It's their fault as well. But ladies and gentlemen, the chickens are coming home to roost.

00:01:18.560 I foresee what's happening right now almost a year ago. You know, I went back and I knew I'd

00:01:25.560 talked about this. There's probably other videos on my channel, but I found a short clip I'm going

00:01:29.300 to play for you in just a moment. Last November, as a matter of fact, I think I'm wearing a poppy

00:01:33.460 in this video where I predicted what's going on right now. How Carney had created different sets

00:01:39.460 of books, operational capital budgets. The capital budget is known as the investment budget. And

00:01:44.480 they're cooking the books right now and outright lying to Canadians. They're gaslighting you

00:01:48.340 about the state of the economy and budgets and deficits and debt in this country right now.

00:01:54.660 And people buy it hook, line and sinker. And here's the thing. This is the game plan, ladies and gentlemen. I did this video last year, November last year. Blame America, bankrupt Canada. It's the liberal thing to do. We've gone from that to anybody who questions what the liberal government are doing right now are called unpatriotic. They're called maple mega or they're called traitors to their country. And that includes the official opposition.

00:02:20.000 Anybody who questions Mark Carney, Chairman Mark, is called a traitor to their country.

00:02:25.960 This is how it works, ladies and gentlemen.

00:02:28.000 This is how the downfall continues.

00:02:32.400 So let me take you back to last November and tell you what I said.

00:02:36.380 And then we're going to read an article, a couple of articles that are proving what I said last November is coming true.

00:02:43.180 Last November on this channel.

00:02:45.680 We will cut wasteful government spending.

00:02:47.380 We'll make massive investments in the things that grow our economy.

00:02:52.100 Okay, so he talks about cutting wasteful government spending.

00:02:57.160 Now, this is where we get into the accounting trick, okay?

00:03:02.960 When he says he's going to cut wasteful government spending, that's the operational budget.

00:03:07.780 So he's going to cut back some jobs.

00:03:09.680 But the investments he talks about, as we said here, are massive amounts of money that

00:03:15.000 he says will grow the economy.

00:03:17.380 that's the other set of books he's got. He's got the operational budget. Then he's got his

00:03:21.860 investment budget, which is deficit spending. And it's going to be huge.

00:03:26.580 So there you go. They're doing exactly what I said. We had this article pop up

00:03:30.660 this week. Carney will miss target for balancing operating budget. PBO says this is from September

00:03:36.340 24th. But here's an article from Warren Gunter from yesterday. Carney liberals play fast and

00:03:40.740 loose with federal books. Okay. So let's read some of this. Spending, then covering it up.

00:03:46.500 That's the only fiscal strategy the Kearney Liberals is good at.

00:03:50.380 They will spend an additional $38 billion this year over last.

00:03:54.180 The Canadian Taxpayer Federation calculates the federal government will spend $594.8 billion in 2026-27.

00:04:02.580 And much of that, nearly $65 billion, will be borrowed money.

00:04:06.060 Interest on the national debt, which sits at about $1.4 trillion, will cost Ottawa and taxpayers nearly $59 billion this year.

00:04:13.700 That's more than federal health transfers to provinces or total GST revenue, according to the CTF.

00:04:20.200 Yet despite all this, the federal liberals keep insisting they will balance the operating budget by 2027-28.

00:04:26.520 Prime Minister Carney told his investment summit in Toronto last week

00:04:30.100 that means the government's day-to-day expenses will be in balance one year ahead of the schedule they set for balance in last year's budget.

00:04:37.180 I can announce today that we are on track to balance the operating budget next year. 0.97

00:04:42.960 He's lying, and the little lemmings in the audience all clap like this is some kind of great accomplishment.

00:04:54.360 The question you have to ask again is, ladies and gentlemen, I think it's a very important question. 1.00

00:04:58.680 How is any of this helping you?

00:05:00.800 How has your life been improved since Mark Carney became prime minister?

00:05:04.260 With all this spending they're doing, any better, ladies and gentlemen?

00:05:07.760 So let's go back to Gutter's article, and here's where the cover-up comes in.

00:05:12.100 And by the way, somebody is going to bring up the fact that he's not really helping Canadians in just a moment.

00:05:16.640 Somebody you might know.

00:05:18.580 So hold on for that.

00:05:19.600 Since last year, the Kearney government has split federal spending into two budgets, operating and capital.

00:05:24.820 Capital is the investment side.

00:05:27.020 The operating budget pays out health, education, and welfare transfers to the provinces,

00:05:31.780 funds senior subsidies and child tax credits most of the civil service's payroll to purchase supplies, rent, and so on.

00:05:38.900 Meanwhile, the capital budget is supposed to cover infrastructure, major projects, and anything else that might be considered an investment.

00:05:46.500 But according to the PBO, the government plays accounting games with the capital budget.

00:05:51.000 You don't say.

00:05:52.320 Mislabeling a lot of operational spending as capital investment.

00:05:56.480 Therefore, making operational spending seem lower than it actually is.

00:06:00.500 And remember when he says, spend less, invest more.

00:06:03.340 Investing is just a lot of spending of your money.

00:06:06.620 Having two sets of books, which is essentially what the Liberals are doing,

00:06:10.300 allows the Carney government to hide a lot of operation spending in the investment column,

00:06:15.360 thereby making it look as if they are balancing the budget quicker.

00:06:19.220 To top off its three-card Monty budget process, great way to put it,

00:06:23.520 the Liberals are taking credit for fiscal prudence that they are not practicing.

00:06:27.240 Of course, the budget, operating or otherwise, will not be balanced ahead of schedule, or maybe never.

00:06:32.980 And now here's a kicker to the story.

00:06:34.480 You get this from yesterday. OECD downgrades Canada's economic growth as Carney moves away

00:06:42.240 from the U.S. Did you see this coming? I certainly did. A little bit of this article,

00:06:47.660 not too much. And then we'll get to somebody you know very well who is actually speaking on behalf

00:06:53.440 of you, wanting to do better for Canadians. But he is called somebody who's unpatriotic for

00:06:59.440 questioning the accounting tricks of Mark Carney and the Liberal government. Prime Minister Mark

00:07:05.280 Carney warned that pivoting our economy away from the U.S. would come at a cost to Canadians, 1.00

00:07:09.900 and the latest numbers show that it's true. And of course, people are saying, I'm willing to 1.00

00:07:13.460 sacrifice for Canada for Mark Carney and the Liberal government. Elbows up, ladies and

00:07:18.680 gentlemen. An Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, OECD, report released last week

00:07:25.160 downgraded Canada's expected economic growth by 25% for this year, by almost the same amount

00:07:32.100 in 2027, 23.53% compared to its last report in June. The OECD predicts the U.S. economy,

00:07:40.800 of course, you're hearing that the U.S. economy is doing badly because the midterms are coming up

00:07:45.420 and the bought and paid for media over in the United States is all in against Donald Trump,

00:07:50.340 TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome, much like the elbows-up people here in Canada, the OECD predicts

00:07:56.640 the U.S. economy will grow by 2.2%, or more than double Canada's 0.9% rate in 2026, and by 2.1%,

00:08:04.900 or 61.5% higher than Canada's 1.3% rate in 2027. My apologies for all of the numbers.

00:08:12.980 The numbers reflect the fact that in a trade war between two countries, the country with

00:08:17.800 the larger economy, the U.S. economy is 13 times the size of Canada's, is better equipped to fight

00:08:23.160 the smaller one. And now we get down to this. Raising the OECD numbers in the House of Commons

00:08:30.400 last week, Conservative MP Sandra Cabina said Canada and France were the only two G7 countries

00:08:37.280 that had their economic growth forecast downgraded in the latest OECD report while they went up in

00:08:43.820 five other G7 nations. She said the major infrastructure projects needed to diversify

00:08:48.480 the Canadian economy are years, if not decades away. The fault of the Liberal Party, including

00:08:54.300 Mark Carney, ladies and gentlemen, from completion when Canadians need help now with the cost of

00:08:59.820 living. The Liberals are all talk and no results, Cabina said during question period. Here is the

00:09:05.740 well-known politician saying basically the same thing. Our mission as conservatives to fight for

00:09:10.980 you and to fight for Canada, to save you money, save you money. That is our single biggest

00:09:17.460 immediate priority. How do we save you money? Because the problems, we got to start focusing

00:09:22.340 on the practical lives of real people. You know, it's all great to have summits and speeches and

00:09:28.140 traveling around the world, but what about right here at home in people's real lives? Where are

00:09:33.480 the results that they can enjoy? That is what is missing right now. You know, Paulie have talks

00:09:38.680 about you. How are we helping you? He wants to help you, but what does he get called when he

00:09:44.240 talks out against what the Liberal government is doing to you? Remember, they're not doing things

00:09:48.860 for you. They're doing things to you. Back to this article, okay? They, the Liberals, are all

00:09:55.220 talking. No results. Cabina said during question period, this Liberal government announces with

00:10:00.220 urgency but delivers at a crawl. When will they adopt our Conservative Action Plan so Canadians

00:10:05.500 can afford to live again. And here's the kicker. This is how it works, folks. They create a threat,

00:10:11.520 Donald Trump and the United States. They say that there's a rupture in what's going on between our

00:10:16.220 countries. They kill a trade deal with the United States. They pivot to the EU, which is destroying

00:10:21.020 our economy. And when people criticize them, what do they say? Finance Minister Francois-Philippe

00:10:27.420 Champagne accused Cabina of talking the Canadian economy down, consistent with the Liberals'

00:10:33.360 elbows up nonsense that any criticism of their policies, even citing the latest economic data

00:10:40.020 from the OECD, where Canada is a founding member, is unpatriotic. Now they've got a label for you

00:10:46.760 and they call you worse. Maple Mega, or a traitor to the country for not standing up with Canada

00:10:52.960 with your elbows up like the idiots who continue to support Mark Carney and the Liberal government. 1.00

00:10:57.660 Ladies and gentlemen, this was telegraphed almost a year ago. 1.00

00:11:03.380 You could see this coming, and I could see what's coming, folks.

00:11:06.500 I could see what's coming, even worse.

00:11:09.260 If we don't get a trade deal with the United States, even worse.

00:11:12.340 January 1st is looming.

00:11:14.720 I'm still waiting for the automotive industry to walk across the border and go south.

00:11:18.820 I'm waiting for that.

00:11:21.240 And who are they going to blame for that?

00:11:23.000 Pierre Polyev?

00:11:24.040 People like myself who have been calling this nonsense out? 0.99

00:11:26.540 We've been calling out this ridiculous government, this ridiculous prime minister who are harming 1.00

00:11:31.640 Canadians and doing nothing to help you. Let me know what you think in the comments. Thank you 0.99

00:11:36.240 very much for watching. Sorry for the rant. If you liked this video, give it a thumbs up,

00:11:40.880 subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'll see you in the next one.

00:11:45.220 Have a good Sunday.
