00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. It is 4.57 a.m. It is Thursday, April the 17th with the
00:00:06.000 big blue mug of coffee. Hope you're having a great day today. And I've got a little bit of
00:00:10.460 a different take on the French language debate from last night. You may have a bit of a hangover
00:00:15.940 from watching it. I did not watch it. I followed along on X. I followed along on a threat on the
00:00:22.600 National Post website. And I'm glad I didn't watch it. Now, I generally don't like watching
00:00:26.940 French language debates because you don't get the nuance of what the person is trying
00:00:31.660 to say because somebody else is speaking for them. I don't like that at all. But I did follow
00:00:37.280 along and I knew I made the right decision when I heard about this happening in the debate.
00:00:43.540 And I thought, are we a freaking ridiculous country or what?
00:00:47.500 Now, 70% of Canadians say that they're buying fewer American products. It's a big number.
00:00:55.460 You leaders, could you please name me one Made in USA product that you no longer buy?
00:01:01.300 I buy my own strawberries.
00:01:05.800 So you don't buy strawberries anymore?
00:01:07.800 I buy Quebec strawberries and I do my own shopping, by the way.
00:01:11.300 What products have you not bought, Mr. Carney?
00:01:13.800 No more wine, no more alcohol, no more American alcohol.
00:01:17.800 I do my own shopping, and I cook at home. Lots of products. Fruits, there's a lot of Canadian apples.
00:01:28.140 So you're making an effort?
00:01:29.140 Yes, I'm making an effort with apples, other fruit, strawberries. Strawberries. Everyone is eating a lot of strawberries these days.
00:01:39.140 I bring it up because I do my own grocery shopping, which Carney does not.
00:01:49.480 This is a delicious conversation.
00:01:55.480 It's beef in my case. I buy Canadian beef. It's the best beef in the world.
00:02:01.480 But I never buy American strawberries, either.
00:02:04.820 So, pardon me if I go on a bit of a rant here.
00:02:10.820 I don't know whether to get mad or just laugh out loud.
00:02:13.820 Are we a serious country?
00:02:16.320 Yeah, I know they talked about a lot of other things, but it means nothing.
00:02:20.820 This is what Canada is now, ladies and gentlemen. This is what we've become.
00:02:25.980 70% of Canadians are buying less American products. Why?
00:02:30.420 Don't be stupid. Buy what you can afford, because you can't afford anything.
00:02:34.020 Because the guy at the far left there, Mark Carney and the Liberals, have screwed you over for the last 10 years.
00:02:39.680 This is where we are in our country now?
00:02:42.660 These people are running to be the leader of our country, and we get a stupid question like this?
00:02:48.460 At least Paulyev was laughing, as he said he was buying beef, which I can't afford anymore, because of the Liberals.
00:02:55.500 We went out yesterday to buy some frozen patties, so I'd like to throw one on the queue every once in a while, because I want a burger.
00:03:02.300 Four for 20 bucks? I can't afford beef anymore?
00:03:08.720 This is where we are?
00:03:10.120 You've got to be f***ing kidding me!
00:03:12.720 You know, Elizabeth May was pissed off yesterday, because the Green Party got turfed from this, because they didn't have enough people running and enough ridings. 1.00
00:03:23.200 Why was Blanchet on stage last night?
00:03:25.700 He represents a party that wants to break up the country that only runs in Quebec.
00:03:29.680 Why was he on stage?
00:03:31.140 And for that matter, why is Jagmeet Singh even on stage?
00:03:34.280 The only thing he's getting out of this year's election campaign, and his career, is his f***ing pension.
00:03:42.380 He's screwed Canada over as well.
00:03:44.680 They need to have a debate.
00:03:46.180 Eliminate all people who can't win the election. 1.00
00:03:49.360 So we have Paulyev and Carney going head-to-head.
00:03:51.720 We'd be better served by that than talking about what groceries people are buying.
00:03:58.100 Are we...
00:03:58.940 This is ridiculous, folks.
00:04:01.840 God, I'm glad I didn't watch this.
00:04:04.280 Yeah, I've seen some other clips.
00:04:06.680 Nobody made any headway in this at all.
00:04:09.860 The guy you went in supporting in this won the debate.
00:04:13.940 You see that all over.
00:04:14.960 Carney won.
00:04:15.680 Paulyev won.
00:04:16.460 Singh won.
00:04:17.040 It's just a joke.
00:04:18.920 We're a joke.
00:04:20.060 This country is a f***ing joke.
00:04:23.300 The reason you can't afford things, folks, is because of the Liberal Party.
00:04:26.440 Not because of Donald Trump.
00:04:28.140 You got it?
00:04:30.080 Do you get it?
00:04:34.280 Jesus Christ.
00:04:40.700 Thank you very much for watching.
