00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 141 in the afternoon, Wednesday, March the 4th.
00:00:08.520 I don't normally do three videos in a day, but I wanted to direct you to a video I think
00:00:13.520 you should watch.
00:00:14.780 Now, pardon me, my voice.
00:00:16.000 I'm losing my voice a little bit right now.
00:00:19.180 I think you should watch this video.
00:00:20.780 I'll put a link in the description.
00:00:22.060 I'm not going to use any audio from this, maybe a bit of video just for cover shots,
00:00:27.280 but I want you to go watch the guys on trigonometry.
00:00:30.060 This is their work.
00:00:31.020 They deserve credit and any monetary value that it has.
00:00:35.100 It's really, really good.
00:00:36.580 So they're talking with Pierre Polyev.
00:00:39.440 It's about an hour interview, and they touch on so many things in one hour, and Polyev
00:00:43.580 is very good in it, and it touches on a lot of the topics that will interest you.
00:00:48.860 Right off the top, for instance, in the interview, they talk about things like net zero, censorship
00:00:54.280 policies, home building, high taxes, immigration, as Polyev describes it.
00:00:59.460 Bring in more people, drive down wages, drive up housing prices.
00:01:02.780 And then he says that all of this concentrates wealth and power in fewer and fewer hands,
00:01:07.740 and it's understandable that working class people are upset about it.
00:01:12.620 So good answer there.
00:01:13.420 Talks about COVID crackdowns.
00:01:15.680 I mean, obviously, Constantine and Francis from Trigonometry couldn't believe what they
00:01:20.500 were watching, what happened particularly when it came to the Freedom Convoy.
00:01:25.880 And Polyev defends them, saying all they wanted was to be heard.
00:01:29.380 Great answer.
00:01:30.080 Talked about Carney in his Davos speech, and working with China, and Polyev says, we need
00:01:38.340 to work with them and talk to them.
00:01:40.000 Can't ignore them, but we don't want a new world order with China.
00:01:43.440 He's asked about Trump, and whether it cost him the election.
00:01:46.560 He says, I was focusing on domestic issues, and obviously that did have an effect.
00:01:52.460 And he's asked about 51st State.
00:01:54.120 Big grin on his face.
00:01:54.940 Never going to happen.
00:01:55.900 You can't control Donald Trump.
00:01:57.700 They all laughed about that.
00:01:59.280 It's great.
00:01:59.780 It really is.
00:02:01.620 Talks about a brain drain.
00:02:03.000 How Canada is dwindling.
00:02:04.260 How 10 years ago that wasn't happening.
00:02:06.860 We were one time more economically free than the United States.
00:02:10.480 We can be once again.
00:02:12.920 Talks about housing.
00:02:14.920 Twice as much goes to guys in suits to build a home than guys who swing hammers and lay concrete.
00:02:20.040 And the people who build the homes, you may have heard it before, can't afford the homes
00:02:23.920 here.
00:02:24.340 And it's disgraceful.
00:02:25.860 That's what Polyev says, basically.
00:02:28.360 Talked about U.S. policy right now when it came to things like Venezuela.
00:02:32.040 And Iran is brought up quite a bit.
00:02:34.140 Polyev fully in agreement with Iran.
00:02:36.160 That's a great discussion.
00:02:37.400 I'm not going to talk more about it.
00:02:38.960 Listen to what he has to say about Iran.
00:02:41.060 Very, very sensible thoughts on Iran.
00:02:46.460 You should see it.
00:02:47.440 Talks about schooling.
00:02:48.500 Constantine brings up the fact that kids are taught in school to hate their own country.
00:02:57.460 Polyev kind of pushes back on that a little bit.
00:02:59.360 He says here in Canada, young people are more conservative.
00:03:02.260 And he brings up the election last year where parents and grandparents voted liberal.
00:03:07.260 But when they had elections in schools, they voted conservative.
00:03:10.800 They won the conservative vote.
00:03:12.720 Talks about indigenous people.
00:03:14.320 Francis from Trigonometry, very interested in this.
00:03:17.140 Polyev goes on to say that indigenous people live on land where there's a lot of natural resources.
00:03:21.720 The liberals won't let them get it out of the ground.
00:03:24.420 The media hides the fact that a lot of indigenous people want resource development.
00:03:29.360 So that was interesting.
00:03:30.560 AI is brought up quite a bit.
00:03:32.520 Talks about that.
00:03:34.700 Asked about AI and how it's going to replace work for people.
00:03:41.200 He says if AI replaces tasks that we do, what meaning will people have in their lives?
00:03:46.260 That is really interesting what he's got to say about that.
00:03:49.460 He comes off very well read, by the way.
00:03:51.260 I'd just like to point that out.
00:03:53.420 And he's asked about how we wrestle power back from bureaucrats.
00:03:58.020 And he says activate everybody else.
00:03:59.980 Provide hope because life can be better.
00:04:02.900 Give power back to the people.
00:04:04.240 He says that the antidote to anger is hope because he's asked about how angry people are
00:04:11.040 in places like England.
00:04:12.380 They have riots in the streets now.
00:04:14.060 He says provide people with hope and that gets rid of the anger.
00:04:17.460 He's asked about the famous Apple video.
00:04:21.220 Constantine and Francis loved it.
00:04:23.000 He was stunned that it became as popular as it was.
00:04:26.760 He didn't think it was anything when it was happening.
00:04:29.720 He says, I was just chewing on an apple in an orchard.
00:04:32.120 Next thing you know, everybody's asking me about it.
00:04:34.520 But it's quite funny to hear that.
00:04:36.940 And then he's asked about the biggest thing that isn't being talked about.
00:04:40.360 And he talks about inflation.
00:04:43.300 Now, there are some other questions, but it's kind of behind a paywall.
00:04:46.960 But they did give us some tidbits of what they're asked about.
00:04:49.240 And one of them is Alberta independence.
00:04:52.080 So I don't know what he said about that.
00:04:53.660 I'm hoping somebody will post that online so I can hear his answer.
00:04:56.920 But I think it's well worth your time to watch this video and to hear what Paulyev has to say.
00:05:02.720 Listen, I'm all about Alberta independence.
00:05:05.220 I am.
00:05:05.900 But if an election were held today or before a vote on independence, I will vote conservative.
00:05:14.400 I have to live in this country until Alberta gains its independence.
00:05:18.280 Watch the interview.
00:05:19.560 Link in the description.
00:05:20.740 I hope this wasn't a waste of time, but I wanted to bring this to your attention.
