John Bolton - It's the Liberal EXCUSE to do EVERYTHING - and the sheep buy it

00:00:00.000 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 0.99

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,

00:06:12.200 out-of-control Liberal spending.

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 0.99

00:06:55.220 damn brainwashed. Meanwhile, the Liberals are doing nothing to get rid of the tariffs because it's an excuse 0.90

00:07:01.040 for everything. That's about as bad or as worst as it can get.

00:07:08.040 Thanks for watching.

00:07:09.700 I do appreciate it. If you liked the video, please give me a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel.
