00:00:00.000 We are seeing continued failures to launch, and we want to be proven wrong.
00:00:04.220 We want these next 10 years to start differently than the last 10 years.
00:00:07.860 But if you're following along with what the liberals are actually putting forth, we have
00:00:13.240 a Build Canada Homes debacle where the government has concocted and was found to have concoct
00:00:19.320 this Potemkin Village housing stunt.
00:00:22.560 A Potemkin Village in politics and economics is a construction, literal or figurative,
00:00:27.920 which is where the purpose is to provide an external facade to a situation to make people
00:00:32.640 believe that it is better than it actually is this this dates back to gregory potemkin a field
00:00:38.400 marshal and former lover of an empress who to impress her while she was traveling the crimea
00:00:44.080 would build these fake villages like up river and then she'd pass and then they'd disassemble them 0.97
00:00:49.040 and then they'd go build them further down all to show off and so a wonderful romantic gesture but
00:00:54.800 But when it comes to a historic and ongoing and generational housing crisis and an arguable Ponzi that has abandoned our working class and young Canadians, that is not acceptable.
00:01:05.040 To be staging these external facades, these fakes, these fugazis, journalist Brian Pasifume of the Toronto Sun went to the site of this liberal housing announcement and it had been all torn down.
00:01:19.720 They practically salted the earth.
00:01:23.260 And expanding off that, Carney was just in Mexico.
00:01:26.960 They are touting that we have some major trade agreement with the Mexicans when we only – both countries sort of account for 2% of each other's imports and exports.
00:01:36.960 And they were using fake bags of wheat.
00:01:39.640 We don't make these Canada bags of wheat that they presented.
00:01:43.660 uh it's like they these bags look like that money sign that that bank robbers would steal in old
00:01:49.460 timey movies and so you know when your housing plan looks like historic lies and your
00:01:55.300 infrastructure projects are already in the works and they're taking credit for that and we're
00:02:01.440 getting stunts on our trade relationships there's there's there's reason to be deeply concerned here
00:02:07.480 and another reason to be deeply concerned as we all know on sunday it was sunday news dumped
00:02:13.400 that the Kearney government on behalf of Canada,
00:02:16.700 I don't remember voting for this.
00:02:18.040 I'm not sure if you do as well.
00:02:20.280 They are recognizing Palestine as a state
00:02:22.920 and all but endorsing that sort of strange bedfellows union
00:02:29.200 between the Western far left and Middle Eastern hardliners.
00:02:32.420 I think we can all be open and compassionate about the situation there.
00:02:38.520 But to recognize the Palestinian state
00:02:41.840 and ask Carney what then he would believe the capital of the state to be, and he would run in
00:02:46.080 the other direction, risks further rewarding the worst of behaviors inside Canada, emboldening
00:02:51.600 an authority in Palestine that hasn't held elections since 2008.
