00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 458 a.m. Monday, August the 31st. I hope you're
00:00:08.300 having a great start to your Monday. I hope you had a great weekend. Hard to believe it
00:00:13.000 was the final weekend in August. And I was just thinking back this morning. I had a nightmare
00:00:18.680 last night about getting snow in September. That actually happened here in Calgary. I
00:00:22.500 think we called it a snowpocalypse. It was about the second week of September and we
00:00:27.580 got 15, 20 centimeters of snow. I remember the trees being covered in this wet, heavy snow was
00:00:33.180 so depressing, but that's what you get when you live in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains. So we
00:00:38.020 got up this morning and I was wondering about the temperature of the country. You know, you kind of
00:00:45.800 have to, you feel things out a little bit sometimes. You have to think about what people are worried
00:00:51.580 about, the challenges that they have here in Canada. I worry about these things. So often I'll
00:00:57.220 sit down and thinking, I wonder how the people are feeling. I wonder where they're directing
00:01:01.920 their frustrations with Canada right now. There's all kinds of things to be frustrated about.
00:01:07.740 Regulations, holding back natural resources, carbon taxes, unsustainable immigration,
00:01:13.320 high rent, limited housing, high taxes, unaffordable food, high debt, high deficits,
00:01:18.960 on and on and on and on. All of these things to worry about. So I thought I'd go online and I'd
00:01:24.480 see what people are talking about today. So I went on X, which I don't do very often,
00:01:28.720 to get the temperature of the country, okay? And the first thing that popped up on the screen was
00:01:35.240 the most important thing, it seems to everybody in Canada right now. Here is Warren Kinsella,
00:01:42.080 this Lake America bullshit, haven't seen so many Canadians this mad in a long, long time. 0.98
00:01:49.120 we're going to read some of the responses here some canadians have figured this out okay 0.98
00:01:57.960 there's a saying and and i know this quote by heart but i'm going to show you this quote right
00:02:04.980 now it's hl mencken the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed
00:02:10.480 and hence clamorous to be led to safety by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins
00:02:16.520 all of them imaginary. So this, this is everywhere on the internet.
00:02:27.040 Are Canadians this stupid, this naive? Donald Trump is trolling you. Okay. We'll read some 1.00
00:02:35.020 of the responses in just a moment. So there's people saying that Lake Ontario has been renamed
00:02:41.680 to Lake America on Google. And other people are saying, I don't know where you're coming up with
00:02:47.360 that. Because when I go to Google, it says Lake Ontario. So here's what you need to understand.
00:02:52.360 Now, this is a screen capture that I did just 20 or so minutes ago. And you need to read this,
00:02:57.820 but let's just watch what happens here. Okay, watch. It says Lake Ontario. There it is right
00:03:02.580 there. Now, I have a VPN that I run on all of my electronics. So you go up here and you switch
00:03:08.640 from Calgary to the United States and watch. Now we refresh. It's now Lake America. There you go.
00:03:16.080 It is Lake America if you're on an IP address out of the United States of America. So this is
00:03:22.460 actually a thing, folks. But this is what people are worried about. Let's go back over to Warren
00:03:27.880 Kinsella. Let me get back over here. Let's read some of the responses of people here. And of
00:03:34.960 Of course, Doug Ford out there with his big million-dollar Ontario taxpayer side.
00:03:39.660 It probably cost a million bucks, folks.
00:03:41.420 These people are just laughable.
00:03:43.500 This is what's concerning people. 0.85
00:03:45.020 Warren Kinsella, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:03:47.600 But, you know, this works great, though, for the liberals like Warren.
00:03:50.660 Because you know what's happening today?
00:03:52.640 You know, you don't get a trade deal.
00:03:54.260 That's the kind of stuff you should be concerned about.
00:03:56.460 Get your government to get a trade deal.
00:03:58.920 Where's the deal, Mr. Carney?
00:04:00.760 You're the great negotiator.
00:04:02.180 We want to see why it broke down.
00:04:03.800 I believe it's the fault of the Canadians, not the Americans, because I don't trust Mark Carney and the Liberals. 0.99
00:04:08.980 But this is the kind of crap that helps the Liberals. 0.98
00:04:12.920 Scuttle a trade deal, hurt lots of Canadians, worry about Lake Ontario becoming Lake America, 0.99
00:04:19.500 and then you don't have to worry about things like this.
00:04:23.180 There are three by-elections today, and the Liberals want to win them all
00:04:27.040 and get people scared about Lake America and Donald Trump, and it helps them at the polls. 0.99
00:04:33.120 Folks, you have to understand that this is the kind of crap that's going on in this country. 0.99
00:04:36.900 For God's sakes, wake up. 0.99
00:04:38.380 So let's read some of the responses. 1.00
00:04:39.800 Now, some of the people, I don't want to read all the responses because some of them are pretty stupid and ignorant here. 0.99
00:04:45.060 But there are some people who have caught on to this. 0.99
00:04:47.640 Folks, we need to be thinking about bigger things.
00:04:49.960 I listed off a whole bunch of them. 0.98
00:04:51.900 So again, this Lake America bullshit, come on, Warren. 1.00
00:04:55.400 you know you're pretty sensible when it comes to the stupidity of all of these 1.00
00:05:01.460 protests on the street around canada that's that's aimed at jews you're pretty good with that 1.00
00:05:06.820 but you're so stupid stop this you're better than this warren haven't seen so many canadians this 1.00
00:05:13.100 mad in a long time call it lake ontario folks if you want so i i responded to this 44 minutes ago 1.00
00:05:19.820 if only they would get mad about real problems in this country you know like liberals
00:05:24.780 Disgust with integrity. What does it matter? Canada is totally free to rename Lake Michigan
00:05:31.420 to Lake Canada. If that would make Canadians feel better. I responded to this stupid comment.
00:05:36.820 Lake Michigan is entirely in the United States. Look at a map. Americans too in New York and 1.00
00:05:43.320 elsewhere are pissed off at the name change from Lake Ontario to Lake America. Not just Canadians.
00:05:48.500 Infantile petty. Zero common sense. Trump's making a fool out of himself. Not on Apple Maps yet by 1.00
00:05:54.640 the way. No, he's making a fool out of people who are making an issue of this. DuckDuckGo still
00:06:01.780 shows Lake Ontario. Google Maps in the United States shows Lake America. So this is something
00:06:06.120 you see a lot of. And I can't even read a lot of this because it's nonsensical. It's ridiculous.
00:06:12.140 Yet this goes by with no response. Unreal. Trutch Street named this. McDonnell Boulevard named this. 0.81
00:06:17.580 Bishop Grandin Boulevard named this. All of these things renamed. Young Dundas Square is now Sankofa
00:06:23.780 square because of this DEI woke nonsense. Lake Ontario is now Lake America. Nobody says a damn
00:06:30.680 thing about these things. Well, people do, but nobody listens. The left need hate to survive.
00:06:37.040 People on the right know it's a joke, but watching liberals lose their shit is so entertaining. Yes. 1.00
00:06:42.200 Well done, Maximus Arzolius. I mean, come on, folks. You are right, but only if you look at
00:06:49.780 third-party apps or you are in the USA. Okay. So this guy's talking about it still being named.
00:06:55.060 Here it is, Lake America on his map. Okay. This is an ad. I don't need pig shorts.
00:07:00.320 What's to be mad about? Does Donald Trump not have the authority to do so?
00:07:04.220 And have they not all signaled that it always has and always will be Lake Ontario anyway?
00:07:09.740 Why are we on a moral crusade? Thank you. A 1774 map of Lake Ontario credit the U.S. Library of
00:07:15.580 Congress, and it says Lake Ontario. Okay, fine. Reminder that the liberals losing their poop over
00:07:21.940 the name of a lake cheered on the destruction of our culture and history. Yes, that's true.
00:07:29.660 We've changed countless names over the past 10 years from islands to universities to public
00:07:33.920 squares and streets. The hypocrisy has been highlighted. Thank you. Nope, we are mad at
00:07:38.360 being replaced by Indians. I'm not going to read that one. You can read it if you want. 0.66
00:07:41.540 Go ahead. Just a reminder, Canada, America is not the enemy. The Liberal Party of Canada is.
00:07:47.580 Deb T, you've got it absolutely right. That's exactly what I've been saying since last year.
00:07:54.980 You can go back and watch videos going back to January, February last year. Thank you, Deb T.
00:07:59.480 Wait until they realize they've been duped into making world-class fools of themselves with the 1.00
00:08:03.560 moronic elbows up. We may be slow to anger, but one thing we don't like is being lied to and made 1.00
00:08:09.560 into cheaters that backstab our allies. We're not down with that at all. Have you seen the text of
00:08:15.520 the deal? We are entitled to see what Charney did to us. Yes, and this is the trade deal she's
00:08:21.260 talking about. Thank you, Kimberly. Conservative geezers, I live in Canada. Canada, stop erasing
00:08:26.200 our heroes. Leaders, stop acting like children. No countries will take our sovereignty unless we
00:08:31.920 allow it, not the EU, not the UK, and not America. We are partners with America. Everyone on both
00:08:38.740 sides, especially Carney and Ford. Stop being the leaders in the kindergarten classes. Thank you.
00:08:43.720 This guy says you're both just awful. Okay. Really? That's effing weird, but okay. In truth, 0.97
00:08:51.160 it's also heard the normier folks going on about this. How do we get them this lit about too much
00:08:56.400 immigration and the need for mass deportations? Is there a way to do this? Can Trump try to rename
00:09:02.220 us to little India or something. It shows you how indoctrinated they are. So easily trolled by
00:09:10.160 Trump now, LOL. While the outrage continues over a name, Trump secured four to five trillion
00:09:15.040 dollars worth of oil for his country. Canada responded by putting up a billboard. That's the
00:09:20.340 Doug Ford billboard about Lake Ontario, right? So glad that the elbows up crowd are finally
00:09:26.020 responding to the serious stuff. Who cares about inflation, open borders, massive debt,
00:09:30.700 and two provinces wanting to separate. I'm going to end it on that. This is on the thread from
00:09:36.040 Warren Kinsella. You can read more of this, but there's a lot of this. And I'm so proud of the
00:09:40.200 people that have figured this out. And again, Warren Kinsella, wake up for God's sakes. You're
00:09:45.120 smarter than this. There are a lot of problems in this country and renaming a lake, which isn't
00:09:53.040 really renamed anyway, call it Lake Ontario, call it whatever you want. The Indians call superior 1.00
00:09:58.240 the Great Lake Gitchagumi. Go back and listen to Gordon Lightfoot's song, The Wreck of the
00:10:04.080 Edmund Fitzgerald. You can call the lake anything you want. Just don't call us stupid. We're not
00:10:09.800 stupid. We understand what's going on here. Donald Trump is laughing his ass off and he's got his
00:10:16.140 feet up right now in the Oval Office trolling Canadians. Thank you very much for watching. 0.77
