John Bolton - Mark Carney Is Already Ruining Your Life

00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 624 a.m. on Sunday, January 19th with the big blue mug of

00:00:06.240 coffee as usual. I hope you're having a great day today and I certainly am. Now, I have a saying,

00:00:13.720 climate change is about people who live large telling the rest of us how to live small and I

00:00:19.540 believe that is exactly who Mark Carney is, the possible next Prime Minister of Canada. I think

00:00:27.080 this man is a horror show. I am frightened by him becoming the Prime Minister and I think he,

00:00:33.440 along with Chrystia Freeland, are going to try to gaslight you when it comes to the carbon tax in

00:00:37.840 this country. There's already talk that they're both going to say we need to get rid of the personal

00:00:42.280 carbon tax so that you don't see it when you fill up your car with gas. They're just going to shift

00:00:46.960 that burden onto business, which you're smart enough to understand when they do that, the

00:00:51.780 businesses just pass it along to you and you're going to pay it anyway. There's no way the government's

00:00:56.140 going to back off on this and Mark Carney's not going to because that's exactly who he is. I mean,

00:01:01.720 do you really think Carney checks the price of gas when he fills his vehicle on the off time he's not

00:01:06.640 being chauffeured around in a limousine? Of course not. It doesn't matter the price of gas to him,

00:01:10.800 but it certainly matters a lot to you. And what do we know about Mark Carney when it comes to the

00:01:16.200 carbon tax? Well, here he is on record. Now, so far, carbon prices have been applied sparingly.

00:01:21.960 They've been set far too low. So, Mark Carney is all about raising the carbon tax on you. He's going

00:01:27.040 to say he isn't going to do it. And again, he's going to try to shift that over to business, which

00:01:31.600 will affect you anyway. This man has had a huge effect on your life, detrimental effect on your

00:01:37.900 life already. And we're going to go through an article from American Greatness in just a moment.

00:01:42.120 But he's a dangerous zealot when it comes to climate cultism. And he's one of the leaders of the

00:01:47.520 climate cult on a worldwide basis. He could be the next Prime Minister of Canada. So, from American

00:01:53.020 Greatness, link in the description, please give them some clicks. Mark Carney, great title,

00:01:57.860 the wrongest man at the wrongest time ever. Mark Carney's bid for Canadian leadership pits a climate

00:02:04.480 activist banker against a political and economic tide, increasingly rejecting the very ideals he

00:02:10.580 champions. And that's true. Many countries, thankfully, are starting to back off on net zero because

00:02:15.440 it's destroying their economies. Canada is getting very close to doing that. Our economy is in the

00:02:20.600 tanks because of this. Just think of how much better we would be doing in this country if we

00:02:25.500 could harness our natural resources and sell it worldwide. But Trudeau and the liberals and people

00:02:32.040 like Christia Freeland have been stopping Alberta, where I live, from doing that. We could be very,

00:02:37.480 very rich. We're one of the richest oil countries in the world. One of the richest when it comes to all

00:02:42.240 natural resources. So, moving along in the article, the politicization of business and capital

00:02:47.560 markets has many fathers. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink is one of the most prominent and unrelenting

00:02:52.920 advocates for sustainability in investing, often described as such. Klaus Schwab, the now retired

00:02:58.920 chairman and founder of the World Economic Forum, often wears that title. So does the billionaire

00:03:03.420 political gadfly Michael Bloomberg. Michael Bloomberg, by the way, just endorsed Mark Carney. We'll get to

00:03:10.220 him in just a moment because they're very connected. So does R. Edward Freeman, the business professor

00:03:15.400 and originator of stakeholder theory, and so do countless others. Of all those responsible

00:03:21.240 for this abusive business and capital markets, perhaps no man is more singularly responsible,

00:03:27.180 yet nearly totally overlooked by ESG's critics, ESG Environmental and Social Governance, which affects

00:03:32.780 everything. Every big company in this country has an ESG page. Check it out.

00:03:37.660 Then Mark Carney. Carney is a banking and economic giant. He was the governor of the Bank of Canada

00:03:43.920 from 2008 to 2013 and the governor of the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020. It was in this latter

00:03:51.640 capacity that in September 2016, Carney gave one of the most important and influential speeches in the

00:03:58.080 history of central banking. Appearing at an event in Berlin, Carney gave a very carefully and very

00:04:03.220 confrontational worded address in which he addressed climate change and framed its mitigation in fiscal

00:04:09.400 and fiduciary terms. Quote, a wholesale reassessment of prospects as climate-related risks are re-evaluated.

00:04:17.060 Unquote. Carney intoned. Quote again, could destabilized markets spark a pro-cyclical crystallization

00:04:23.360 of losses and lead to a persistent tightening of financial conditions, a climate Minsky moment. Now,

00:04:29.740 the article goes on to describe what a Minsky moment is in great detail, but as it says in this paragraph,

00:04:35.240 or to put it more simply, Carney, the governor of the Bank of England was warning global investors and

00:04:40.320 politicians that they either had to force business in general to become environmentally sustainable

00:04:45.500 immediately or could face commercial and economic Armageddon. You know, there's a saying,

00:04:50.120 the urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule. H.L. Mencken said that.

00:04:56.560 And that's what Mark Carney is. There's another great quote for you. They want to scare the crap out

00:05:00.960 of people to affect their lives and to socially engineer people. And that's what Mark Carney's about.

00:05:06.560 And he's been socially engineering businesses in a big way. And again, affecting the way you live your life.

00:05:13.860 And you may not even know it. And again, he wants to become the prime minister of the country.

00:05:18.080 Up next, it is nigh on impossible to describe just how destructive Carney's speech and subsequent

00:05:24.280 activism were. Not only did he make the case that climate change posed a real and imminent threat

00:05:30.160 to global economic well-being, but he also provided ESG practitioners and advocates with the means to

00:05:36.340 try to legitimize their social and political meddling. In 2020, after leaving the Bank of England,

00:05:43.860 Carney became the United Nations envoy for climate action finance, which means that he ran around the

00:05:49.660 world saying things like, quote, when you look at climate change from a human mortality perspective,

00:05:55.100 it will be the equivalent of a coronavirus crisis every year from the middle of this century and

00:06:00.780 every year, not just a one-off event. Now, he advised in this article, it's just above here,

00:06:06.600 both England and Canada when it came to COVID policy. So,

00:06:09.740 if that really pissed you off, Mark Carney had his hand in that as well. Again, very influential

00:06:14.120 on a worldwide basis. Moving on. Carney went on to become one of the usual suspects in Western

00:06:19.520 political activism, using any and every crisis to advance his ideological projects. So, he's enriching

00:06:27.600 himself, he's making you poorer, and he's affecting all the businesses in the world. And if you look at

00:06:33.780 this, every crisis is climate change now. Look at the wildfires are happening in LA right now. It's

00:06:40.840 mismanagement by government. Carney's a big government guy. He talks about that as well.

00:06:45.220 He wants more government. He thinks government needs more layers so they can have more control over

00:06:50.180 your life. But they want to use every crisis possible to advance. And they're doing that through

00:06:54.600 the climate change cult, right? By scaring you when it comes to climate change. Moving on now.

00:06:59.780 In 2022, Carney, along with his friend Michael Bloomberg, helped create GFANZ, which is GFANS,

00:07:07.940 the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero, an outgrowth of the UN's COP26 meeting on climate change,

00:07:14.820 and one of the most powerful advocacy organizations pressing governments and businesses to abandon

00:07:19.920 fossil fuels. So, not only does he want more carbon taxing on you and to pass it along to businesses,

00:07:25.920 try to take it off your back when you fill up your car, he wants to get rid of the fossil fuel industry.

00:07:31.740 That's why my Premier Daniel Smith is standing up to Trudeau. Carney has been Trudeau's right-hand man

00:07:40.460 for a long time, telling him how to run the country, I think, from behind the scenes. And I think Daniel

00:07:45.720 Smith understands that as well. The next year, Bloomberg appointed Carney's Chairman of the Board of

00:07:50.540 Directors of Bloomberg LP. In 2024, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau formalized Carney's

00:07:56.460 advisory role with his government, naming him a Special Advisor and Chairman of the Task Force on

00:08:02.240 Economic Growth, something of which Canada has had very little for several years. So, we have not had

00:08:07.500 a lot of economic growth, which is true. Try as I might, I cannot think of anyone, save Justin Trudeau

00:08:13.360 himself, whose politics and policies are less compatible with the zeitgeist in the West at the

00:08:19.360 moment than Mark Carney. Throughout Western Europe, people are fed up with leaders who favor open borders,

00:08:25.660 social justice politics, and the economics of decline as dictated by net zero energy policies.

00:08:32.100 Carney practically embodies all of the above. He is, in so many ways, the wrong man in the wrong place

00:08:38.620 at the wrong time. And yet, now, this article is very interesting. One of two things will happen in

00:08:45.260 eight weeks when the Liberal Party chooses its leader. Either Carney's candidacy will fall flat,

00:08:51.560 proving that he is too out of touch even for leftist Canadians, or it will succeed, proving that 0.55

00:08:57.020 leftist Canadians desperately want to corroborate Mencken's supposition that, quote, democracy is the

00:09:03.440 theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard, unquote. Another

00:09:09.580 Mencken quote. I love H.L. Mencken. If it's the former, then perhaps Canada can resuscitate its near

00:09:16.240 depression level economy and become a global energy leader again. If the latter, then, well, maybe 0.92

00:09:22.680 President Trump has the right idea. And if you see at the bottom, the right idea is underlined. That is a link

00:09:28.480 to this story right here where Donald Trump is talking about Canada becoming the 51st state. I think

00:09:34.900 I think we're in a frightening position right now. And I think Mark Carney is a lot more frightening than

00:09:40.460 people realize. And again, he's had a huge effect on your life already. There's no way this guy can become

00:09:46.900 the next Prime Minister of Canada. But I fear that he will. I don't think Christia Freeland or anybody else in

00:09:54.380 this race is going to be successful in fighting against Pierre Polyev simply because they are

00:10:00.880 liberal insiders and they have their hands deep into the mess that Canada is right now. But Mark

00:10:06.640 Carney does as well. You need to understand that. And again, not just Canada, but he's had a huge effect

00:10:13.300 on your life, detrimental effect, all around the world. Thanks for watching. I do appreciate it. If you

00:10:19.300 like the video, please give me a thumbs up. Subscribe to the channel as well. See you on the next one.

00:10:24.380 Bye.
