Learn English with Maxime Blanchard. The Prime Minister speaks to the truckers and their supporters in the streets of Ottawa, Canada on the day of the protest against the government's anti-Canadian immigration policies.
00:00:00.000Maxime, bonjour. Good, how are you? Do you have a minute for True North?
00:00:03.280Okay. I mean, let's start. Why do you think there are so many people here on this convoy and here in Ottawa today?
00:00:09.380Because they're fed up. They want to regain their freedoms. That's why.
00:00:13.880And, you know, we are not alone. And I believe that more people will come tomorrow, will come Monday.
00:00:20.520And a lot of people are looking at us at home.
00:00:24.160And what the message for them is, we are there. You must have the courage of your conviction.
00:00:30.640The end is coming. And I want to thank the truckers for that.
00:00:34.700The courageous truckers that decided enough is enough.
00:00:38.180There's no logic. There's no common sense. There's no science under these draconian measures.
00:00:44.300And that must end. And they are giving hope.
00:00:47.600The truckers are giving hope to thousands of Canadians that the end is coming.
00:00:53.280You've said that the Liberals, the NDP, the Conservatives, they're all the same.
00:00:57.840So what motivation is there for anyone in Parliament to listen if they've already been bringing us into the things that people are here protesting?
00:01:05.180Yeah, I believe that, you know, they don't want to be here and meet us and have a discussion with us about that.
00:01:11.920Because there's no logic. There's no science besides what they're doing.
00:01:17.400So my message for them is, you know, listen to your people.
00:01:22.000Don't play that game of division and segregation.
00:01:25.420If you are a real leader, you must unite everybody, every Canadian.
00:01:29.440And we all want that. We want to unite everybody under the freedom umbrella.
00:01:33.200So I hope that this rally, I don't want to call it a protest.
00:01:38.900Look, it's a rally. People have fun here.
00:01:41.760This rally, I hope that will be the most important rally that we had the last two years.
00:01:53.520As you know, I did a lot of rallies all across the country.
00:01:56.600But this one is special because we know that we have a momentum right now.
00:02:01.840And I believe that momentum will be the event that will bring some common sense to our establishment politicians.
00:02:11.980If not, the PPC will always be there to tell them that they must respect their people.
