00:00:00.240 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is Tuesday, November 26th, just before 5 o'clock,
00:00:05.520 enjoying a cup of coffee this morning down in my basement. A couple of articles came to my
00:00:10.180 attention this morning. One on the National Post website, the other on the True North website,
00:00:15.180 and they are related. Now, the one on the National Post website will be the big story today. It will
00:00:19.660 lead the news today in Canada. And here it is. Trump says he'll impose 25% tariff on all products
00:00:26.340 from Canada, Mexico, until borders are secured. Now, if you follow the U.S. election at all,
00:00:31.880 you know that the border was a huge part of Donald Trump's election plans, and he won based on the
00:00:38.140 economy and the southern border, securing the border, particularly to the south. Now, if you read any of
00:00:43.840 the comments on this story, almost a thousand of them now, many of them will say people like myself
00:00:50.320 should feel like an idiot for supporting Donald Trump because this is the type of thing Trump's
00:00:54.440 going to do that will hurt Canada. To which I replied, I don't think this is going to hurt Canada
00:00:59.700 at all. Now, let me explain. I think this issue will be addressed by the Canadian government before
00:01:04.520 Donald Trump reaches Inauguration Day. They're going to have to pay attention to this, or it's
00:01:09.620 going to hurt in a big way. The other way, the reason why I think this is a good thing is because
00:01:14.080 the border will be secured, because borders go both ways. And we've got a problem with too many people
00:01:19.480 coming to this country illegally or seeking asylum, which brings me to the second story,
00:01:24.540 written by Isaac Lamoureux of True North. Let me read a couple of paragraphs of this article.
00:01:30.840 Asylum seekers to Canada have reached a record high and will cost Canadian taxpayers billions of 1.00
00:01:35.180 dollars each year to house and accommodate them. Deputy Chair of the Refugee Protection Division,
00:01:40.580 Rula Atreides, said it currently takes 14 months for a case to be processed with the division.
00:01:45.640 However, she said that the division was funded for 60,000 cases this year, but intake has risen
00:01:51.840 to over 200,000 claims, resulting in a wait time of 44 months. Quote, they're allowed to get a job.
00:02:00.040 They're allowed to get health care. They're allowed to stay in our country. Out of the 200,000 new 0.95
00:02:05.380 referrals, 70% are just within this year. So all the changes Mark Miller has made, Mark Miller is the
00:02:11.760 immigration minister, have actually made and led to this crisis, said Kana. An average refugee costs
00:02:18.460 taxpayers $82,000 per refugee per year. So how much is this costing on an annual basis for just these
00:02:27.280 200,000 people? Well, do the math. $82,000 times 200,000 is $16 billion that Canadian taxpayers are
00:02:36.620 shelling out for asylum seekers. And I put the quotes around it because a lot of these people
00:02:41.640 are not asylum seekers. They're coming here because Canada is giving them $82,000 in housing,
00:02:48.520 healthcare, and probably giving them money to stay here as well. The average Canadian makes $71,000 a
00:02:54.700 year in their salary. So we're giving more to refugees by $11,000 than Canadians are making every
00:03:00.040 year. This is insane. And you know, Pierre Polyev, and I mentioned this yesterday, Pierre Polyev needs to
00:03:04.840 focus on the carbon tax, but how it is personally affecting each person when they pay for their gas.
00:03:10.260 He keeps saying they're tripling the carbon tax. No, here's how much it is actually costing you.
00:03:14.120 That hits home. Pierre Polyev needs to talk about this. Now, immigration is a little more on the radar
00:03:19.480 because of him. Trudeau, just a few weeks ago, said that immigration is a problem and there are bad
00:03:24.840 actors involved in this. He's the bad actor. He's responsible for this and his immigration minister,
00:03:29.200 Mark Miller. But Polyev has forced the government to act on a couple of issues, one of them being car
00:03:34.040 theft. Trudeau wasn't thinking about that. And the other one is housing. There's no place to live in this
00:03:39.160 country anymore. Trudeau said 18 months ago that it wasn't a federal responsibility. Housing. It is now
00:03:45.200 because Polyev made it an issue. And one of the reasons we haven't got any housing here and prices for
00:03:51.880 rent and homes has gone through the roof is because of this issue. 200,000 asylum seekers. A lot of these 1.00
00:03:57.820 people are not seeking asylum. They're seeking $82,000 a year. There are organizations within
00:04:04.560 Canada that look for people like this. Come here. You live in a crappy country. You haven't got any
00:04:09.120 rights over there. You're trying to scrape by. Canada, they'll put you up in a house, give you
00:04:12.740 health care to the tune of $82,000 a year. These people live in high in the hog while Canadian taxpayers
00:04:17.720 are paying for it. This needs to stop. And 14,000 people who are considered asylum seekers on this list,
00:04:25.580 according to this article, are students. But their visas have run out. And they have to leave.
00:04:32.320 Claim asylum. Canada will pay for you. Stay here. 44 months. That's almost four years. 1.00
00:04:40.500 Right? This is not a big enough issue. Now Donald Trump, day one, is going to deport people out of
00:04:47.600 the United States. They are there illegally. And we have a lot of illegal people. Apparently 1.2 million
00:04:52.000 people came across our borders who didn't belong here last year and the year before. 1.2 million
00:04:57.740 people in a country of only 40 million. The words deportation will never cross the lips of Pierre
00:05:05.160 Paglia. But he should make a point of saying, listen, if you're in this country and you're seeking
00:05:09.280 asylum and you're not coming from a country where your life's in danger or it's a war zone,
00:05:13.060 you need to leave. And these students who are getting to stay here, paid for by Canadian 0.99
00:05:20.420 taxpayers, you need to leave now. When I become Prime Minister, you're going to leave. And we're
00:05:27.680 going to fast track you right out of the country. The reason why Paulie isn't making more of an
00:05:33.760 issue of this is because he's afraid of being called a racist. Donald Trump wasn't afraid of being
00:05:38.900 called a racist. And he won a massive landslide in his election. This is huge. That's ridiculous.
00:05:46.960 People are coming here because we're easy. 82 grand a year. No big deal. It is. This needs to stop.
00:05:55.760 Thanks for watching.
