00:00:14.820 Hi, it's John, and welcome to the channel 501 AM, Wednesday, September the 30th.
00:00:20.600 I hope you're having a great day today.
00:00:22.620 I tip the big blue mug of coffee to you today.
00:00:25.280 Thank you so much for being part of this channel.
00:00:27.300 and you're going to thank me after you watch this video today. You're going to really enjoy this.
00:00:31.720 I have got a treat for you today. I've got to keep the intro short because I want to keep this video
00:00:36.400 down below 10 minutes. You can consume everything here in less than 10 minutes and what you're
00:00:41.400 going to hear from today, you're going to absolutely love because I'm going to see very
00:00:45.440 little. Okay. I, I'd like to use the words of other people and audio from other people to make
00:00:51.380 points. And one man is going to make some amazing points today that you are going to love. A man
00:00:56.500 who sees Canada through a different lens with clarity, unlike a lot of people that actually
00:01:01.220 live here. Now, if you don't follow this man, I would suggest that you do. I'll put a link in
00:01:06.380 the description to his YouTube channel, Victor Davis Hanson. Read Victor Davis Hanson. Listen
00:01:12.860 to this man because he is brilliant. Now, he did a podcast yesterday where he talked about Canada.
00:01:18.980 He talked about Kearney, Kearney in the EU, the Communist Chinese in Canada, Alberta's place in
00:01:25.440 Canada. What if Alberta leaves the 51st state? He talks about all this stuff. And of course,
00:01:30.300 the invasion of the United States into Canada. He goes into all of this and you're going to love
00:01:35.960 what you're going to see here. So I'm going to end it right here. Link in the description to
00:01:40.160 the video. Watch the whole thing because I've edited it down here to less than eight minutes,
00:01:45.300 but there's a lot more to this. So enjoy Victor Davis Hanson here on the channel.
00:01:49.120 So, Victor, let's start off with Prime Minister Mark Carney.
00:01:54.660 He confirms—this is a New York Post article I'm looking at—he's prepared for a U.S. invasion.
00:02:01.480 He confirmed in an interview this week that his government had prepared for the possibility of the U.S. launching an invasion of Canada amid ongoing trade tensions.
00:02:11.200 quote, I think you have a responsibility in these roles to look at extreme tail risk, Carney told
00:02:18.140 the New York Times. That's just risk management. That's not a bad case, but it would be irresponsible
00:02:25.000 not to. I don't know. Do you hear cuckoo birds in the background? Yeah, I don't think he's serious
00:02:32.600 because if he did believe that, it would be like you were in Britain in 1939 and you're Winston
00:02:39.580 Churchill, and two of your children are living in Germany, and all of your finances are tied up in
00:02:47.180 German bonds, and you warn the British, they're going to end trade any day, and your kids still
00:02:52.620 live there in Germany. He has two children living in the United States. 91% of his investments are
00:02:58.140 in the United States. The problem he doesn't understand is that he's going to do irreparable
00:03:04.860 damage to Canada, and he's not going to suffer from it. He's a globalist. Before he was prime
00:03:11.500 minister, as we said, he was a citizen of three different nations. When Canada becomes a third
00:03:17.440 world economically, and it will if his vision is reified, he won't be there. He will go back to
00:03:25.380 his Euro friends, or he's a global citizen. He can go anywhere. He's just a member of the elite.
00:03:32.600 So what is he basically saying? He's saying that 2% of Canadian trade is affected by
00:03:43.320 these new tariffs that we imposed. Carney has a $400 billion trade with the United States,
00:03:51.640 and he's jeopardizing that over 2% of it that has a tariff. And in the process,
00:03:59.320 he's doing two other things. He's risking this relationship by deliberately walking out of
00:04:05.640 negotiations and then getting his ministers not to be transparent and tell us what happened
00:04:12.200 and why he walked out. We have permanent residents in the United States who are Canadian,
00:04:18.840 who fly back for Christmas or Thanksgiving and renew their six-month free stay in the United
00:04:25.640 States without any audit and they're free to work and that no other country can do that. 0.91
00:04:31.180 So you're going to jeopardize that for new visa and trade relations with this communist 0.67
00:04:38.200 government that is a direct descendant of the worst mass murderer in history, Mao Zedong. 0.72
00:04:44.300 If Canada was a state right now, its GDP would be below Mississippi, it would be 51%.
00:04:51.960 Its per capita income is $30,000-plus less than ours.
00:04:58.000 Its per-family per capita income is even lower.
00:05:02.780 But then he wants to become this associate member, and guess what about the EU?
00:05:06.640 There's one thing they do not like.
00:05:09.100 They do not like fossil fuels, and they especially don't like tar sand fossil fuels.
00:05:16.460 And they don't want anybody to import food to disrupt, it's an admirable system to preserve
00:05:25.220 the family farm and traditional French rural side culture or Italian or Greek, you name
00:05:31.120 it.
00:05:32.120 Okay, but that's what Canada exports, fuel and food.
00:05:37.180 If he gets this green net zero dream realized, and he's almost there, and he antagonizes
00:05:45.140 the United States as he is, the economy is going to go flat. Of all the major industrial
00:05:53.020 nations, everyone, last year they had the lowest rate of economic growth per family
00:06:00.140 median income. Canada did. Why are we getting angry at Canada with the elbows up? And why
00:06:06.940 are they so insecure and boasting about what they're going to do to us and discussing their
00:06:12.360 military. And I've been listening to some of these broadcasts. They're just insane.
00:06:19.960 And I think it's because they are moving away from America economically, politically, socially.
00:06:28.160 They have open borders. Forty-five percent of the Canadians were not born, as I said,
00:06:33.220 in Canada or their parents weren't born in Canada. They've got over two or three million
00:06:37.400 foreigners on visas. In addition, 5.1% of everybody who dies every year, so almost 17,000 to 18,000
00:06:49.500 people are assisted suicide. Their fertility rate is about 1.25. They're shrinking. And these crazy
00:06:57.340 globalists like Carney are importing millions of people in the Centennial Initiative. As I said, 0.88
00:07:05.180 they want to get $100 million, and they can only do that through immigrants. So they are extinguishing 1.00
00:07:10.180 the indigenous people, their culture, their economy, their traditions. And it's a failing 0.85
00:07:16.720 society. It reminds me so much of 15th century Constantinople. It's very sad because we all 0.96
00:07:23.640 like Canadians, but they are committing collective slow-motion suicide. They're so arrogant, 1.00
00:07:29.600 That whole troll about the 51st state and we're going to make, there is zero, there may be on the left, but there is zero support for making any of Canada a state in the United States. 0.89
00:07:44.040 Why in the world would we want another political Washington or Oregon or Massachusetts?
00:07:52.880 Because that's what you would get in spades.
00:07:55.060 You would get that entire socialist network.
00:07:57.980 And you'd get senators, representatives, local government.
00:08:02.360 We wouldn't want that.
00:08:04.220 But we feel bad that they have it.
00:08:07.660 Even if you brought in only Alberta, it would probably collapse Canada because bringing in Alberta would reflect that we were basically cut off and we're not dealing with Canada anymore.
00:08:22.420 and they would lose their only source of energy and natural resources that are considerable.
00:08:28.900 But I don't even think we want Alberta because I think, why do we want any of that? We just want
00:08:36.580 to be friends with the Canadians. And they have the best tariff policy of any nation in the world,
00:08:42.820 and they have the best visa situation of any in the world. And they had a bunch of globalists in
00:08:50.740 the cabinet and some of their provincial heads and Mark Carney that decided that they were going
00:09:00.020 to gin up a nationalist wave, and out of that, this liberal extreme agenda was going to remain
00:09:08.980 in power after most people were sick of it from Trudeau's disastrous tenure. And now they have it,
00:09:15.060 and we can't help them because they're doing this to themselves. They fell for it.
00:09:20.020 Boy, if they continue this and the United States says, okay, we're done with you, I would imagine that about a million Canadians would leave.
00:09:29.560 Wasn't that incredible? And there's a lot more to it, so watch the full video. Link in the description.
00:09:35.680 By the way, if you didn't see this last night, a lot of people very concerned in Alberta about the 650,000 plus mail-in ballots.
00:09:43.900 We did a live stream last night. Thanks to Corey Morgan and Jason Levine for being part of that.
00:09:48.620 And of course, Tanya Clemens for being on as well.
00:09:51.740 If you've got any concerns about the mail-in ballots,
00:09:53.740 we addressed it on the live stream last night.
00:09:55.920 I'll put a card at the end
00:09:56.920 so you can watch the whole thing.
00:09:58.940 Thank you very much for watching.
