Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 550 AM. Hope you're having a great day today.
00:00:05.360
It is Saturday, May the 31st. I hope you're having a great start to your weekend. I do
00:00:09.480
have my big blue mug of coffee, which is way back there today. And the reason it's there
00:00:14.780
is because I got a new toy. I don't want to spill the coffee into my new toy. And I want
00:00:19.060
to explain that to you in just a moment. But I have a serious topic today. It's awful.
00:00:24.780
It's terrible. It's the liberals and Mark Carney, of course. It's something you're aware
00:00:30.160
of because you're clued in with what's been going on in Canada over the last 24 hours or
00:00:35.400
so. But it's a different way of looking at things. I'm going to look at this a little bit differently
00:00:39.380
today. So stay tuned for that. It's not only Mark Carney and the liberals, it's the people
00:00:43.060
who support them and justify what they're doing. So the reason the coffee's back there
00:00:49.440
is because I bought a new computer. And just to explain to you, you know I get up early
00:00:54.600
in the morning if you ever watch me. And it took me forever to edit videos because I had
00:00:59.560
an old PC. It was infuriating. It would take me five minutes to get my name on a video.
00:01:05.020
It was just awful. So my wife convinced me to buy a new computer and I bought a Mac.
00:01:13.620
I've used a Mac, but it's been years. And it's a learning curve here. And so this is going
00:01:18.460
to be a short video. And it's going to look different because my video editing program,
00:01:22.780
which is supposed to work in the Mac, which is in the Mac, isn't working properly.
00:01:26.600
So I'm using a different video program today. Just want to let you know. So what's going on
00:01:30.560
right now? Well, any of you who've been here since say January know that when Justin Trudeau
00:01:36.380
was still prime minister, he had resigned but was still prime minister, I said that the liberals
00:01:42.040
were going to use Donald Trump's tariffs to their benefit. And they were going to do nothing
00:01:47.080
to get rid of them because it will drive up their poll numbers. And lo and behold, that's
00:01:51.540
exactly what happened. Carney was elected leader, became prime minister, was elected prime minister,
00:01:57.540
and other than talking to Donald Trump once, those tariffs still exist. But what's even
00:02:03.760
more insidious than using those tariffs to get power, which is awful, is the fact it's become
00:02:10.840
the justification for everything now that the liberals are in. I mean, Tim Hodgson, who's the
00:02:18.100
energy minister, was asked about Bill C-69. Are you going to get rid of Bill C-69? And reading off a
00:02:26.200
piece of paper, he was told exactly what to say and to use the tariffs against the conservatives and to
00:02:32.880
use it as an excuse to not end Bill C-69. Here it is. Will they repeal Bill C-69? Yes or no?
00:02:41.340
The prime minister has been clear. Yes, we will support new pipelines if there is consensus in Canada for
00:02:49.160
them. With American tariffs threatening our economy and threatening our sovereignty, we must protect our
00:02:57.140
energy security. There is no question energy is Canada's power. It will help us build the strongest
00:03:03.640
economy in the G-7, guide the world in the right direction, and help us be strong at the negotiating
00:03:10.480
table. We will win this trade war. We will make Canada an energy superpower.
00:03:17.360
Hodgson got the memo. He's reading off a piece of paper in the House of Commons. It probably says at the
00:03:22.540
top, Tim, anytime you get into trouble with the conservatives, use the trade war with
00:03:27.120
Donald Trump as an excuse, and that's what he's doing. So he's not committing to getting rid of
00:03:31.780
Bill C-69, which is the anti-pipelines bill, because of that. So this is the excuse they're
00:03:38.020
using now. He stood in Calgary a week ago saying Canada's going to become an energy superpower.
00:03:43.300
Right. So what's happened over the last 24 hours? Well, you probably know this. You've seen this.
00:03:49.280
Here's the headline. Carney government tables $486 billion spending plan with few
00:03:56.540
details. What has Carney been saying about spending and investing for months? Well, here he is just
00:04:05.060
quick. And the essence of this is to spend less and invest more. That means reining in government
00:04:13.920
spending so that Canada can invest more as a country. The $486 billion in Mark Carney's mind,
00:04:22.540
economic genius. And the Liberal Party is not spending. This is investing because we have to
00:04:30.980
fight Donald Trump and the tariffs and become the strongest economy in the G7. It's the excuse for
00:04:36.400
everything. Meanwhile, the tariffs aren't going anywhere. They need the tariffs to justify everything.
00:04:44.060
It's going to get worse. Just hold on. But before it gets even worse, it gets worse because the tariffs
00:04:52.180
aren't getting better. They're getting worse. We are going to be imposing a 25% increase. We're going
00:05:02.760
to bring it from 25% to 50% the tariffs on steel into the United States of America.
00:05:09.820
So Donald Trump's tariffs aren't getting better. They're getting worse, which gives the liberals
00:05:14.640
even more justification to do anything they want. Just like Tim Hodgson reading off the memo gives you
00:05:20.300
an excuse for anything. $486 billion, half a trillion dollars in not spending. That's what
00:05:28.940
they've got people believing. This isn't spending. This is investing. Now the only person that's
00:05:34.240
watching out for you and the only party that's watching out for you, Pierre Polyev and the
00:05:39.140
Conservatives. They should have won this election. They didn't win this election. They could have saved
00:05:44.280
the country if they won the election. But Polyev walked out and he said this about this crazy
00:05:50.000
spending by Mark Carney, master economist and the Liberal Party.
00:05:54.340
People cannot afford a more and even more expensive Liberal government. And that is why I'm announcing
00:06:01.160
today that Conservatives will vote against this half trillion dollars of inflationary, irresponsible,
00:06:15.420
Polyev and the Conservatives are right not to support this. This is insane. This is insane.
00:06:22.400
But what do you read online? You read online tweets like this. Pierre Polyev says Conservatives will
00:06:28.240
vote against tax deductions. Pierre Polyev confirms that he will not support the Liberal spending plan.
00:06:34.460
Waiting for that middle-class tax cut to put more money in your pocket. Pierre Polyev says,
00:06:39.920
no, it was never about Canadians. It was all about him. The Liberals are stealing $486 billion out of
00:06:48.580
these people's pockets and giving them crumbs back and they are okay with it because they have been so
00:06:55.220
damn brainwashed. Meanwhile, the Liberals are doing nothing to get rid of the tariffs because it's an excuse
00:07:01.040
for everything. That's about as bad or as worst as it can get.
