The Federal Liberals are doing their level best to connect the Conservatives to so-called white supremacists, despite not having any evidence that any such connection exists. The two groups added to the list are Blood and Honour and Combat 18, both groups emanate from the UK, which has a long history of white supremacist groups.
00:00:00.000The Federal Liberals are doing their level best to connect the Conservatives to so-called white supremacists,
00:00:15.000despite not having any evidence that any such connection exists.
00:00:19.000They just released their updated terror watchlist.
00:00:22.000Of the 51 groups named, the vast majority are Islamic extremist groups.
00:00:27.000The other two are white supremacist groups that don't seem to have an actual presence in Canada.
00:00:32.000The Iranian Republican Guard was not on that list.
00:00:36.000But every time they open their mouth, they mention white supremacism is a major issue and a grave threat to Canada.
00:00:43.000The Liberals trying to make it one does not make it so.
00:00:46.000The two groups added to the list are Blood and Honour and Combat 18.
00:00:51.000Both groups emanate out of the UK, which has had a long history of white supremacist groups,
00:00:56.000dating back to the National Front and, to a certain degree, affiliated soccer hooligans.
00:01:02.000The other groups added were Iranian-connected extremist groups.
00:01:06.000But the headlines, and there were many, were all about the Government of Canada adding two white supremacist groups to that list.
00:01:14.000None of this is to suggest there isn't an element of white supremacy in Canada. There is.
00:01:20.000But it's very small and consists mainly of keyboard warriors in their mom's basement.
00:01:26.000Do they show up on the radar of CSIS? Of course they do.
00:01:30.000CSIS monitors all manner of extremist groups, but make no mistake, the bulk of CSIS investigators are more concerned with Islamist extremist groups,
00:01:38.000foreign espionage, and attempts to infiltrate or corrupt our government.
00:01:42.000So why the spin, and the push by the Liberals?
00:01:46.000Well, with an election coming up in just a few months, I can only guess it is the old Liberal trope of always trying to paint Conservatives as white racists.
00:01:54.000And the Liberals are the only party which can be fair to all groups.
00:01:58.000It's been that way for virtually every election I can remember.
00:02:02.000Sometimes it's just louder than others, but it's always there.
00:02:06.000Remember the elections in the 90s and how they and their media lapdogs attacked Preston Manning and his Reform Party.
00:02:13.000We had ten years of conservative government under Stephen Harper.
00:02:18.000And despite all the howling of racism and that they'd legislate against abortion, they did nothing of the sort.
00:02:25.000At some point, Canadians have to stop listening to the howls of outrage over manufactured issues and start asking questions about real issues.
00:02:36.000The Liberals have accomplished very little in their term of the last four years.
00:02:41.000They legalized marijuana and fumbled the rollout badly.
00:02:45.000They still haven't fixed the Phoenix computerized pay system for their federal civil service,
00:02:50.000and they've raised taxes on the middle class.
00:02:53.000And they managed to hobble the energy industry, the economic lifeblood of this country.
