John Bolton - Peterson and Poilievre Trigger The Left

00:00:00.000 Hi there, it's John and welcome to the channel. Hope you're having a great day. Sunday, January 5th,

00:00:05.320 5, 10 a.m. with my big blue mug of coffee. And I just finished watching the Jordan Peterson

00:00:11.100 Pierpoliev interview. Didn't have a chance to watch it yesterday. Hour and 41 minutes. And I

00:00:16.780 want to run through what they talked about this and how some of the people on the left have

00:00:22.820 responded to what was said in the interview. So if you haven't seen it, he talks about how

00:00:28.100 students are exhausted, can't afford a home. Canadians are poorer than Americans. Inflation,

00:00:33.280 how it hurts people, how socialist policies. Talking about redistribution goes from working

00:00:38.880 class to the super wealthy. Powering the future with oil and gas. Growing government by the

00:00:44.480 liberals, 40% bigger. The cost of government. He talks about immigration, how we have too

00:00:49.520 much of it. He talks about Trudeau the radical. He touches on Jagmeet Singh as well and does

00:00:54.440 a prediction for 2025. Touches on Mark Carney and Freeland's resignation. He also talks about

00:01:00.500 the trouble that is coming for Canada. There's an economic mess that's coming. He says the

00:01:07.180 liberals got the party. He gets the hangover. He wants to unleash free enterprise, pay down

00:01:12.340 the debt. He wants to see a resources boom here in Canada. He wants to grow Canada out of

00:01:17.800 the mess that's been created. He says that things will not reverse instantaneously and people

00:01:22.900 must remain politically active to put pressure on people to get things done in this country.

00:01:27.960 He talks about people who could be on his team including Andrew Scheer, Leslyn Lewis, Jamil

00:01:32.620 Giovanni, Melissa Lantzman. He talks about our huge Western Caucus out here in Canada when it comes

00:01:39.180 to the energy situation and getting more energy out of the ground here in Canada. He also says he's

00:01:44.900 spoken with Danielle Smith and Scott Moe. Smith, the Alberta Premier, Scott Moe in Saskatchewan,

00:01:50.420 to talk to them about resources and to kind of have their feet on the ground to start running

00:01:55.040 when he becomes the Prime Minister. Talks a little bit about Canada's future.

00:02:00.000 America used to invest a lot more in Canada before Trudeau. People are moving to America. Talks about

00:02:05.700 that. Talks about axing the carbon tax on day one. Talks about home building on day one. The crackdown

00:02:11.860 on crime on day one. And an immigration slowdown on day one as well. He talks about immigration and

00:02:18.480 integration into society. You know, I have a saying, some people come here, they don't integrate,

00:02:23.660 they infiltrate. He addresses people coming here, bringing along their grievances. He talks about

00:02:29.580 Canada first. He also talks about gratitude for Canada's history, something which I've touched on

00:02:34.420 here on my channel. The obsession with race in our society right now, which I think he is absolutely 0.97

00:02:40.120 correct on. And he touches on wokeism. He also talks a little bit about his last sit down since

00:02:46.140 Peterson, how he's changed. He says he's tougher now. He's stronger. He knows how to take a punch.

00:02:51.040 He also talks a little bit about his background. He was born here in Calgary. He was adopted with

00:02:56.000 his brother. He was adopted but was not rich. And he thanks Jordan Peterson at the end for standing

00:03:03.240 up for his convictions and allowing people like us to be able to speak more freely because, well,

00:03:07.920 we know Jordan Peterson's background. So, a very interesting interview. And I don't think there was

00:03:13.720 anything that was too controversial in the interview. But what did we get from the left on

00:03:21.540 this? Now, a lot of credit goes out to different people online. The Pleb, Moose on the Loose,

00:03:28.920 other people who are doing podcasting here in Canada. True North, here's a story that they had up.

00:03:35.000 Liberal MPs, leftist media have meltdown over Jordan Peterson's podcast with Paulia. But for the life of me,

00:03:41.000 I can't see what he talked about here that was so controversial. But I do know that what they

00:03:47.100 focused on were things like abortion and Russia. Now, the reason why they were focusing on abortion,

00:03:54.840 if you watch the podcast, which is produced by The Daily Wire, Peterson works with The Daily Wire,

00:04:01.260 there was an ad that ran for an anti-abortion group in there. So, naturally, they try to focus on that

00:04:08.380 with Paulia. But Paulia has no control over any ads that are on this podcast. It's got nothing to do

00:04:14.480 with them. But that's what the left is focusing on. And people saying that he wants to take away

00:04:19.020 women's rights. I'm putting some things on the screen here. These people are losing their minds. 1.00

00:04:23.060 Jagmeet Singh with a tweet on X about this saying that Paulia is coming for women's rights. And that's

00:04:29.540 not the case at all. They also talk about Russia. Because Justin Trudeau mentioned in a committee

00:04:35.540 that Jordan Peterson was influenced by Russia and was being paid by Russia with absolutely no proof

00:04:42.340 at all. And Peterson says, I'm not getting any money from Russia. The left is obsessed with Russia.

00:04:47.320 They're obsessed with death as well. I mean, if they're not getting you in the womb, they're killing

00:04:51.240 you before your time because of euthanasia. In Canada, it's absolutely sick. They're ghouls.

00:04:57.000 But this is the kind of stuff they focused on. Now, look at it from the standpoint of some of the

00:05:02.600 journalists. I say journalists because these people aren't even serious people anymore. Andrew Coyne.

00:05:09.360 I mean, the guy has absolutely lost it. The guy works for the Globe and fail. He's a writer for a

00:05:14.980 newspaper. Talk about being irrelevant these days. He gets paid by you to work on the CBC with what?

00:05:20.800 What was the name of that woman? The French woman. Chantelle Hebert, who is slowly turning into one of 0.96

00:05:25.360 those BBC spitting images puppets? You know what I mean? These people can see their time slipping

00:05:31.240 away. They're getting older. Their journalism jobs are slipping away and disappearing. They're too old

00:05:37.600 to become relevant when it comes to podcasting. That's for the young. I mean, I'm getting old.

00:05:42.160 I'm irrelevant. I had to talk the other day with somebody. They're asking me if I was going to get

00:05:46.260 back into radio. I said, are you kidding? Nobody wants to hire me. I'm 60 years old this year. In a month,

00:05:51.220 I turned 60. Nobody wants to hire me. They look at my resume and go, this guy's freaking ancient.

00:05:57.160 And that's what's happening to people like Andrew Coyne and Bruce Arthur slipping away into irrelevancy

00:06:02.180 because they work for dying media companies. Coyne's about to lose his job. So is Chantelle Hebert.

00:06:08.760 When the CBC gets defunded, they're going to be the first people shown the door. Andrew Coyne seeing his

00:06:14.040 day as a liberal senator slipping away as his boy, Justin Trudeau, is about to be shown the door.

00:06:20.840 These people aren't serious. You know, you get guys like Dean Blundell. I wouldn't even know who

00:06:25.900 this guy was. It wasn't for the fact he's an absolute liberal lunatic. Look at the stuff that

00:06:31.300 he posts online saying that, you know, Polyev is unhealthy and sick. That's just, this is ad hominem

00:06:38.700 nonsense from the left. So I watched the whole thing. I think it was a fantastic interview. And the

00:06:44.120 other thing that I saw in this interview, I was like, it's very interesting to watch Polyev. I

00:06:50.260 don't think, you know, they're trying to say Polyev is Trump, but in the North. And that's not the case.

00:06:55.560 But what happened during the last election campaign, Donald Trump sat down with Joe Rogan,

00:07:01.800 a worldwide phenomenon, as is Jordan Peterson. I mean, look at the number of people who have watched

00:07:08.340 this on X and YouTube and a number of people online and follow these people. I'm sorry. I haven't got

00:07:13.560 the pictures up in front of me. I'm putting them on the screen right now. We're showing you

00:07:16.240 the number of people that have watched Polyev on, you know, Peterson's podcast compared to Trudeau

00:07:23.620 showing up on This Hour is 22 Minutes. It's laughable. Now, again, let's go back to what happened

00:07:29.160 with Trump. He shows up on Rogan and everybody said, would Kamala Harris have done this? No way.

00:07:35.320 She wouldn't last a minute on Joe Rogan's show, let alone three hours. This was an hour and 41

00:07:40.780 minutes of Peterson talking to Polyev. Do you think Trudeau could have done that? Not a chance.

00:07:46.780 Not a chance he could have done it because he can't stand up for what he, he can't really

00:07:51.560 talk about the things he's done and defend them. And let's just put it that way. In fact,

00:07:57.800 Polyev had a great, a great to quote him this. So let me read it to you. This is what he said in

00:08:02.140 the Peterson podcast. Socialists always try to disown the things they've done because it's

00:08:06.220 manifestly disastrous. And Trudeau could never sit down on Peterson's podcast and talk to him like

00:08:12.100 this. And I think Peterson would give him a chance to make his case. So it was a great interview.

00:08:18.900 The left focused on Russia. The left focused on abortion, which had nothing to do with this

00:08:24.560 interview at all. I ran through pretty much everything they talked about. Great interview.

00:08:28.480 Very smart for Polyev to do this. The more people that get to hear him will understand

00:08:33.100 he wants things to get better in this country. While these lost journalists who are becoming

00:08:38.940 irrelevant are just trying to look for clicks on X and on YouTube. And they're about to lose

00:08:46.420 their jobs. And that's simply the case. So thanks for watching. I do appreciate it.

00:08:50.280 My take on Jordan Peterson and Pierre Polyev. Great interview. If you have a chance,

00:08:55.320 check it out. See you in the next one.
