00:00:00.040 Let's admit it, the left and right in this country are so divided right now, there is no way we're going to agree on anything.
00:00:08.780 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel, Monday, March the 2nd, 427 a.m.
00:00:13.440 I hope you're having a great start to your Monday morning and I hope you had an awesome weekend.
00:00:18.120 I did. I've got my big blue mug of coffee with me.
00:00:20.860 I tip it to you today as we're starting to see some better weather in Calgary this week, which is really nice.
00:00:26.440 It's spring not too far away now. I hope you're having good weather where you live as well.
00:00:30.960 So, I woke up this morning thinking, which can be a dangerous thing, folks.
00:00:38.340 But I was thinking back to a story I did a couple of days ago and it was this one here.
00:00:42.960 We've all heard about the attack, the United States, Israel on Iran over the weekend.
00:00:47.200 It has been at the top of the news, the top of the minds of people.
00:00:50.140 And when I saw this story the other day, and when you saw it as well, you probably thought similar things and maybe some other things as well.
00:00:56.660 But I thought, this is the end of a totalitarian regime.
00:01:01.240 This is freedom for Iranians who really want their freedom.
00:01:04.640 This is the end of the number one sponsor of terrorism in the world.
00:01:08.620 And since I did that video the other day, Khomeini was killed, the Ayatollah, so he's dead, responsible for killing tens of thousands of Iranian civilians and subjugation of women as well, which is a terrible thing.
00:01:22.900 So, I thought it was a good thing when I first saw this story.
00:01:26.100 But then, as I said in the other video, the next thing I thought was, how are people in Canada going to root for Iran over the United States because of Donald Trump?
00:01:36.340 And since this has happened, Democrats are calling for Trump's impeachment, and people here in Canada are insulting conservatives who agree with this attack, who want to see the freedom of Iranians, and the Trump derangement syndrome grows here in Canada.
00:01:52.460 And I thought to myself this morning, how many other things do I disagree with liberals about?
00:02:01.080 So, I started writing down a list today.
00:02:03.720 And folks, this list will show you why we have such a political divide in this country.
00:02:10.020 And I don't know that this is a complete list.
00:02:11.920 There's probably other things as well.
00:02:13.360 I'm sure in the comments, people will throw in some other things.
00:02:15.800 But it's a pretty exhaustive list.
00:02:18.620 And I hope you'll excuse me, but I'm not going to look for a graphic for all these things because it would take me all day.
00:02:24.240 All right?
00:02:25.280 But these are things that the Liberal Party stands for.
00:02:29.120 And I think by extension, so do liberal voters.
00:02:33.080 So, let me run through this list quickly so it doesn't take all day.
00:02:36.940 And if you feel like adding to the list, feel free.
00:02:40.000 But to start off, let's look at a quote because you know I like quotes.
00:02:45.640 And this has some bearing on what I'm talking about today, but we can always learn from quotes.
00:02:51.280 And here's the quote today.
00:02:53.440 To anger a conservative, tell him a lie.
00:02:55.660 To anger a liberal, tell him the truth.
00:02:57.980 Who said that is unknown, but we're going to drop some truth right here.
00:03:02.260 So, again, this is a list of what the Liberal Party stands for.
00:03:06.520 And I think by extension, Liberal voters, because after all, Liberal voters, you are voting in favor of these things.
00:03:13.120 So, let's go through my list.
00:03:14.160 And pardon me, I have to read it.
00:03:16.000 It's impossible to memorize because it is quite long.
00:03:19.820 And, again, it's not a complete list.
00:03:21.200 There are other things, I'm sure.
00:03:22.360 So, let's go through this.
00:03:23.240 This is what I came up with this morning.
00:03:25.540 High taxes, high industrial carbon taxes, net zero.
00:03:29.880 No pipelines.
00:03:31.220 By extension, anti-oil, anti-gas, anti-prosperity.
00:03:35.660 Tanker bans, pipeline bans, high regulation, limited housing, the housing affordability crisis, high rent, high immigration targets that strain housing and health care, inaccessible and inefficient health care, asylum claimants that get better health care coverage than Canadians. 0.63
00:03:53.940 Too many temporary foreign workers, no property rights, and limiting speech rights, including Bill C-63, the Online Harms Act, Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Regulation, Bill C-9, Combating Hate Act, Bill C-2, Surveillance Without Judicial Oversight, and Bill C-18, the Online News Act. 1.00
00:04:14.220 High food costs, the high cost of living, diversity, equity, and inclusion, which I call division, exclusion, and indoctrination.
00:04:23.460 Youth gender experimentation, gender identity policies, big government, high deficits, higher debt, gun grabs, and gun buyback programs. 0.79
00:04:33.540 High inflation, catch and release bail reforms, opposition to mandatory minimum sentences, soft on crime, federal overreach, and centralized power in Ottawa.
00:04:44.780 Censorship, woke ideology, federal funding of mainstream media, and increased funding of the CBC.
00:04:52.540 Electric vehicle mandates, clean electricity regulations, tariff troubles.
00:04:57.340 No issues with China relations controversies, China over USA policies, and Chinese election interference.
00:05:05.620 Residential school grave lies, band-aid solutions that don't solve the root problem.
00:05:11.460 For instance, school lunch programs and food subsidies.
00:05:15.320 Increasing food lines, globalism, public sector growth, liberal scandals, including SNC-Lavalin, the We Charity, AgaCon,
00:05:24.040 and Emergencies Act implementation, among others, and lots of talk with no results.
00:05:30.480 I would say, if you're watching this, you're likely a conservative or maybe a libertarian, but you disagree with all of these things.
00:05:40.380 Is it any wonder that we have independence movements growing in this country, increasing frustration on the right, and mistrust in the liberal government?
00:05:48.900 My question to you is, we have two candidates.
00:05:53.380 Is there any way to bring these two sides together when there's so much disagreement in this country?
00:05:59.760 Right now, Iranians around the world are yelling the name Trump.
00:06:05.080 Meanwhile, the left disagrees with ending a totalitarian regime, and that's what got me thinking this way.
00:06:12.880 Let's end with another quote.
00:06:15.480 This one from Ronald Reagan. 0.98
00:06:18.480 It isn't that liberals are ignorant. 0.99
00:06:21.140 It's just that they know so much that isn't so. 0.97
00:06:25.720 Let me know if you've got any more to add to the list.
00:06:28.340 I'm sure there's a lot more.
