Juno News - Carney Caught LYING again!？

00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Candace Malcolm, and this is The Candace Malcolm Show. Thank you so much for tuning in.

00:00:11.740 We've got a great show for you today. We're going to talk about Donald Trump, whether or not we're

00:00:15.680 going to get tariffs on March 4th, as promised. We're going to talk about the latest polls and

00:00:20.180 whether you can believe them, whether you can trust them, and how the polls are contradicting

00:00:23.760 one another. We're going to talk about the need for independent media in this country. I think

00:00:28.240 that the liberal leadership debates, those questions, the way they were framed, everything

00:00:32.560 about them showed us why you cannot trust the media and why you need independent media in this

00:00:38.040 country. But first I want to talk about the front runner of the liberal race, Mark Carney, because

00:00:44.000 it appears that he has been caught in yet another lie. So last week on the show, we pointed out the

00:00:50.140 very obvious. This is something that liberal candidates have done for decades, for decades.

00:00:55.620 say one thing in one language to one side of the country, and then contradict themselves when

00:01:00.420 they're in Quebec speaking in French. So we had Mark Carney out in British Columbia telling

00:01:05.500 supporters that he would do anything in his power to get pipelines built, to get the economy going.

00:01:10.800 He said that he would even use emergency powers to get pipelines built. And then two or three

00:01:16.700 days later, he's on the French CBC. He's asked about this, asked whether he would force Quebec

00:01:21.200 to have a pipeline, and he said never. He repeated it four times, folks. Never, never, never. He

00:01:26.780 completely contradicted himself, and he lied. We pointed that out here on the Candace Malcolm

00:01:31.080 Show. Well, it looks like he has been caught in yet another lie, and we are going to walk you

00:01:36.000 through all of it. But first, I'd like to introduce our guest today. I'm very pleased to be joined

00:01:40.740 by Ezra Levant. Ezra is founder of Rebel News, host of the Ezra Levant Show. He's authored

00:01:46.460 several books, including the best-selling Ethical Oil, as well as The Libranos. And I'm very excited

00:01:52.180 to announce with Ezra that he has released a new book called The Deal of the Century,

00:01:57.340 The America First Plan for Canada's Oil Sands. We're going to talk about that book a little

00:02:01.980 later in the show. But first, Ezra, thank you so much for joining the program.

00:02:05.860 My pleasure. And congratulations on Juno News.

00:02:09.020 Thank you so much. Thank you, Ezra. Okay, let's talk about Mark Carney, because

00:02:13.040 this sort of came out after the debate. And I saw that the conservatives were making a big deal

00:02:18.400 about it. And at first, I didn't quite understand it. And as soon as I did, I realized that this is

00:02:22.460 a big deal. This is this is, I think, very harmful to Mark Carney and his brand. So allow me to walk

00:02:27.920 us through it. Mark Carney, after the liberal debate on Tuesday night, he was asked by a reporter

00:02:34.640 to clarify his role in Brookfield management. So we're going to show this clip of Mark Carney says

00:02:40.220 want to correct a few factual things he says i was chair of brookfield asset management i ceased to

00:02:45.820 be the chair on the 15th of january when i announced my leadership and then he said the

00:02:50.300 formal decision of the board happened after i ceased so brookfield asset management a big

00:02:55.260 canadian company moved their headquarters from toronto to new york city carney claims that he

00:03:01.580 had nothing to do with it so here's that clarification on tuesday night so two things uh

00:03:07.260 I'll just correct a few factual things.

00:03:09.760 One, I was chair of Brookfield Asset Management.

00:03:13.160 I ceased to be chair on the 15th, I think, of January when I announced for leadership.

00:03:21.620 The decision, the formal decision of the board, happened after I ceased to be on the board.

00:03:28.280 I do not have a connection with Brookfield Asset Management.

00:03:32.320 I no longer have a role, obviously, as I resigned in the middle of January.

00:03:35.260 So he's using a bit of weasel words there. He looked a little bit uncomfortable. He was scrambling a little bit, Ezra. And then all of a sudden, the conservatives produced a letter that was signed by Mark Carney and dated December 1st, 2024, almost a full week after Trump's economic threats and several weeks before he resigned.

00:03:56.980 So Michael Barrett produced this letter, a conservative MP, and you can see here he says,

00:04:03.100 Breaking Carney lied. Carney was chair of Brookfield's board when they unanimously voted

00:04:08.240 to move headquarters from Canada to New York, Trump's hometown. Mark Carney can't be trusted.

00:04:14.600 And then he produced the letter itself, the letter in question. And you can see the highlighted bits

00:04:19.680 here. This is Mark Carney has signed this letter. He said, we believe that there is more we can do

00:04:25.460 broaden our shareholder base and gain access to the deepest pools of capital the most common

00:04:29.940 feedback that we hear from investors encourages us to position brookfield asset management for

00:04:36.020 inclusion in some of the most widely followed global large cap stop indices including in the

00:04:40.580 united states he goes on the board based on among other things recommends unanimously basically to

00:04:47.540 to go ahead and to move the company to New York. We have a timeline here, October 31st, Brookfield

00:04:55.460 announced that it was moving. November 5th, we know Donald Trump was elected. November 25th was

00:05:01.400 the first time that Trump made his 25% tariff threat. December 1st was when that letter was

00:05:07.340 written by Carney to his shareholders, saying unanimously the board agrees and confirms that

00:05:14.660 we should move to New York. The shareholder vote took place on December 20th. But Ezra,

00:05:20.860 it wasn't finalized until January 27th, we're told because of the Canada Post strike. So it was

00:05:27.040 delayed. Carney technically resigned on January 16th. And then January 27th was when it was

00:05:33.240 finalized. And so I guess that's how he gets out of it. But this all coming out and him, you know,

00:05:39.920 that display that he had on Tuesday where he was fumbling with his words, not quite able to even

00:05:46.300 explain clearly why. I think he's guilty. I think that he has lied. And it is incredibly damaging,

00:05:52.500 not just the lie, Ezra, but the actual act of moving a Canadian company to Trump's New York

00:05:58.240 City while we're told that Carney is the only one that can deal with Donald Trump and stand up to

00:06:03.620 him. What do you make of all this? Well, the reason Donald Trump applies tariffs is precisely

00:06:09.040 to get companies to move to the states if they want to do business in the states. Think about it.

00:06:13.860 He's saying to the auto sector, I'll put tariffs on you because I want to move the factories

00:06:19.440 back to Michigan. So that is Trump's whole strategy. I mean, he likes the money from

00:06:25.680 tariffs, but he prefers to have the companies reshoring in America. And that is exactly what

00:06:32.380 Mark Carney did. And what's so incredible is he did it right during the time when Trump was

00:06:38.800 talking about this. I don't want to take anything away from the conservative MP who released this

00:06:45.700 letter, but it was not a secret letter. Brookfield has to publish letters like this frequently if

00:06:51.780 there's any material changes to the company in their management discussions. Like this is filed

00:06:57.720 with the sec constantly um they're a big public company that has to disclose things like this

00:07:04.220 and so moving their headquarters to new york was something they were it was in the media was in

00:07:10.080 disclosures months ago what's sort of funny here i don't know funny is the word uh what's curious

00:07:16.680 is that mark carney is not used to being grilled in a precise and meticulous way he's used to sort

00:07:24.820 of sliding or eliding through things. And so I heard when you played the clip from after the

00:07:30.740 debate the other night, he said, well, the formal decision didn't come after I was gone.

00:07:37.120 Yeah, that's probably a technical truth. That's sort of like Bill Clinton arguing about what the

00:07:42.220 meaning of the word is, is, or whatever, trickery. But it is crystal clear that Mark Carney headed up

00:07:51.600 the move process four months. I don't doubt that the final X marks the spot on the New York lease

00:07:59.060 happened after he was gone, but he was the chairman who oversaw that. Now, you say this is

00:08:05.320 critical and very important, and I would agree in two reasons. First of all, he handed over

00:08:12.660 a major Canadian company to America. That shows that he puts money ahead of his patriotism,

00:08:19.320 And by the way, he hasn't answered a lot of questions.

00:08:22.100 Where did he live over the last few years?

00:08:25.200 Why does he have not one but three passports?

00:08:28.680 I know why he got the British passport,

00:08:30.740 because after being the head of the Bank of Canada,

00:08:32.760 he became the head of the Bank of England.

00:08:34.720 But why does he still have it?

00:08:36.540 Where is his main residence?

00:08:38.140 How many days in 2024 did he actually live in Canada?

00:08:43.420 Why is his wife still working in New York City? 1.00

00:08:46.200 Why isn't, like, I'm not picking on her.

00:08:47.900 I'm just very curious.

00:08:50.320 It feels like when Michael Ignatieff said,

00:08:53.340 well, I'll only come back to Canada if I can rule over you. 0.93

00:08:57.540 But it also shows one more thing.

00:08:59.920 He's not used to scrutiny.

00:09:03.360 He's used to the World Economic Forum.

00:09:05.200 That's where I last bumped into him on the streets of the WEF at Davos.

00:09:09.260 And he's used to scripted questions from friends in a low-stress environment,

00:09:14.320 and he's not really ready for the accountability of a democratic process and this coronation that

00:09:21.620 the liberals are running it's not a true primary it's not a true leadership contest it's an agree

00:09:26.460 a thon i mean they were actually helping each other they were finishing each other's sentences

00:09:31.220 in these debates and uh mark carney has made the bet sort of like joe biden did in both 2020 and

00:09:41.560 the first half of 2024, that if he just does not allow himself to be grilled by independent

00:09:47.580 journalists, if he just keeps a really low-key, under-control management of himself, he will

00:09:56.460 escape any scrutiny. And you're suggesting he won't, because you're saying this is a very

00:10:03.680 serious moment. I agree it's a serious moment, but the saying, if a tree falls in the forest

00:10:09.440 and the other ones around here doesn't make any sound. So if this lie, if this handing over of a

00:10:15.900 Canadian company to America and the subsequent lies and covers up by Mark Carney, if it's not

00:10:22.200 covered by the mainstream media, or if they cover it, if they explain it away and make their

00:10:27.660 headlines, conservatives pounce, which a lot of, then maybe he'll sneak through like Joe Biden won

00:10:34.640 in 2020 with no scrutiny. He basically campaigned from his basement. I am worried that the regime

00:10:41.800 media has the same kind of exuberance they had once Kamala Harris took over in 2024, and they're

00:10:48.480 going to do anything they can to pull their boy across the finish line. The question is, is

00:10:53.820 independent media in Canada strong enough to get the truth out? Because the regime media, and I

00:10:59.420 don't just mean the CBC. Every other private sector journalist that gets about a third of

00:11:04.660 their salary covered by Trudeau's newspaper bailout, this is life or death for them too.

00:11:11.860 Every journalist in Canada has a moral hazard. They're in a conflict of interest. Trudeau pays

00:11:17.780 at least a third of their salary. In the CBC, it's 100% of their salary. That is why you are

00:11:22.860 going to see the greatest whitewash of Mark Carney in Canadian history. And I think it's happening.

00:11:29.420 Well, absolutely. I want to pick up on a few things, because one of the things you mentioned was the fact that Mark Carney has three passports. We dove into this on a recent show, and he became governor of the Bank of Canada. I'm trying to remember, I think it was 2014. But reports say that he didn't get his British citizenship until 2019, Ezra. So it's not like it was a requirement for the job, right? He moved to the UK, he qualified for it somehow, and then he got it, which tells me that he did it by choice. He is also a citizen of Ireland.

00:11:57.900 And in the past, both with Andrew Scheer, who was the conservative leader in the 2019 election,

00:12:02.700 it was learned that he was born with American citizenship because his mom was an American.

00:12:06.540 And also Tom Mulcair, who is a French citizen.

00:12:09.340 And both those two individuals promised to renounce their second citizenship if they became prime minister.

00:12:16.600 Andrew Scheer put the paperwork in to get the wheels in motion.

00:12:20.000 Thomas Mulcair said that he would renounce his French citizen if he became prime minister.

00:12:23.860 for best I can tell Mark Carney hasn't spoken on the record at all he hasn't made any pledge

00:12:28.900 and we're lined up to have him become prime minister in what less than 10 days Ezra when

00:12:33.860 he will be selected by the liberal leadership base he won't then go into a general election

00:12:39.080 he will become prime minister that day which to me it's it's concerning that he hasn't even been

00:12:44.160 on record which again goes to underline your point about the need for the independent media

00:12:48.860 I want to show you this clip Ezra because I want to get your reaction to it so the CBC

00:12:53.460 is already out there spinning and trying to cover for Mark Carney. First of all, I'll give them

00:12:59.900 some credit for even covering this. I was surprised to see Ian Hannemansing out there saying, did Mark

00:13:05.560 Carney lie? Even just using that sentence, I think was a bit of an improvement. But then they went to

00:13:10.380 the CBC's David Cochran, who's bending himself into a pretzel here defending Mark Carney. I don't think

00:13:16.240 this is a very good explanation. I don't even think that the CBC viewers will buy it. But let's

00:13:20.640 Let's play that clip, and I'll get you to react to it.

00:13:23.300 The official re-registration of the corporate headquarters from Toronto to the United States

00:13:27.300 happened in October of last year, before Donald Trump was re-elected,

00:13:31.160 before Chrystia Freeland had resigned, before any of the big seismic political events had happened.

00:13:35.360 Now, the reason for this, it's not necessarily corporate flight from Canada,

00:13:39.360 and a reflection of the Canadian economy, is that Brookfield Assets Management,

00:13:42.980 as part of its growth strategy, it's a subsidiary of the larger Brookfield Corporation,

00:13:47.100 which is a major company here in Canada.

00:13:48.700 it needs to be headquartered in New York to get access to shareholders in the United States,

00:13:54.660 or it needs to be headquartered in the United States, and they get access to stock indexes,

00:13:58.420 and ultimately it wants to be on the Standard & Poor's 500. You have to be registered in the

00:14:03.100 U.S. to do that, whether Donald Trump is president, whether Kamala Harris or Joe Biden had won the

00:14:07.940 last election. It sounds like he's reading a Liberal Party press release there just explaining

00:14:13.180 the corporate speak and why they have to be. Well, if that's the case, then why would any

00:14:17.080 company be headquartered in Canada. They would all want to have access to those American markets.

00:14:21.520 To me, that was a terrible explanation. Pathetic that a CBC journalist was doing it. But we've 0.94

00:14:26.180 come to expect that. But the explanation in and of itself, I don't think it will convince the CBC

00:14:29.400 audience that this is okay. Well, I don't even know what the CBC audience is anymore. I mean,

00:14:35.100 I'll forever remember David Cochran as the guy who, with the cameras rolling, took a gift from

00:14:41.920 Justin Trudeau of a free poutine, and he started to eat it. And Trudeau said,

00:14:48.940 I'm basically, I'm bribing you. And David Cochran went through with it. I mean, he was taking,

00:14:55.140 it's an amazing video clip from an early election campaign. It was just in the moment,

00:15:01.980 David Cochran knows who his boss is. It's Justin Trudeau. There are an enormous number of Canadian

00:15:10.280 companies listed on the US stock exchange that raise enormous amounts of investment on the US

00:15:15.600 stock exchanges, New York, New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, etc, who have their headquarters in

00:15:21.400 Canada. In fact, the biggest Canadian companies have huge investments from US institutional

00:15:27.720 investors like pension funds, like the oil sands companies, for example, Synovus, I'm just picking

00:15:32.660 a company out of the blue. I think it's actually majority owned by American shareholders. It is

00:15:37.540 based in Calgary. So David Cochran is either corrupt, like maybe he's taking another poutine 0.70

00:15:43.800 gift, or he's stupid, or maybe it's neither of those things. Maybe he's quite clever, 1.00

00:15:48.760 and he realizes that he needs to get Mark Carney across the finish line to protect the CBC from

00:15:54.300 Pierre Polyev. What I am worried about is this simulation of criticism, this simulation of

00:16:03.240 journalistic critique might fool some people that he's been vetted we don't know the most basic

00:16:08.400 things about mark carney we don't know what he owns what he earned what what who he lobbied for

00:16:17.360 who were his different clients when i bumped into the world economic forum a year ago he said he was

00:16:23.180 working for the united nations i asked him i said who are you here on behalf of and he said the un

00:16:30.560 okay well what were his duties there has he resigned from those duties what was what lobbying

00:16:37.760 did he do we we have not had a vetting we have not had a background check we have not had even

00:16:45.100 basic biographical information about this guy where's his primary residence i mean we don't

00:16:52.580 know anything about him other than what his official cv says and even that is being scrubbed

00:16:58.200 he's even denying that he was on the board of the World Economic Forum. And the reason that's

00:17:02.160 important is because I want to know who his bosses are. And if he had bosses for 10 years at the UN

00:17:08.020 and for 10 years at the World Economic Forum, just because he has, quote, severed ties doesn't mean

00:17:13.660 those are not relevant facts for us to know. We know less about Mark Carney than we've known about

00:17:20.360 any Canadian prime minister. He's going to be prime minister in less than two weeks.

00:17:25.860 we know less about him than any other Canadian prime minister in history. We barely know that

00:17:32.420 he's Canadian. And other than the fact that he was born here, I don't even know if that's

00:17:37.020 really who he is. We know nothing about him. And I think that suits the regime media just fine.

00:17:43.660 Well, it's so interesting, Ezra, because a few days before they disqualified Ruby Dalla,

00:17:49.080 you had a liberal former chief of staff to a cabinet minister, Steve O'Brien,

00:17:54.360 say on a panel that she hopes that the Liberal Party will find a legitimate reason to disqualify

00:18:00.720 Ruby Dalla, because if Ruby Dalla is allowed to compete on the stage during the debates, 1.00

00:18:05.180 it will turn it into a circus. Look, I think that Ruby Dalla is a bit of an outsider. She has 0.97

00:18:10.140 contrarian opinions, especially for the Liberal establishment. To your point, the entire debate

00:18:14.860 was nothing but everyone agreeing with each other. I had David Knight-Lag on the show last night,

00:18:20.880 and he just kept calling it like a faculty club meeting. And that's kind of what it was like. It

00:18:24.160 It was like they were just throwing out big sky ideas, weren't taking any accountability.

00:18:28.180 I mean, the focus of the debate was Trump, Trump, Trump.

00:18:32.080 They didn't mention anything about crime during those debates.

00:18:34.940 They didn't talk about bail reform.

00:18:36.280 They didn't talk about immigration.

00:18:37.720 They didn't talk about fentanyl.

00:18:38.900 The main issues that are causing Donald Trump to make these tariff threats were not addressed

00:18:44.340 in the debate.

00:18:45.800 They didn't talk about the foreign gangs that are running drug cartels and drug operations

00:18:51.000 in our small towns across Canada.

00:18:52.820 They didn't mention anything about the Chinese election interference.

00:18:57.120 Ezra, to me, I mean, the moderator was a former CBC national anchor, Hannah Thibodeau.

00:19:02.800 And it seemed like they just didn't want to talk about anything controversial, to your point, that this whole thing is supposed to be a coronation.

00:19:09.860 They know that in order for their bread to be buttered, in order to keep getting money from the government, they need a liberal government.

00:19:17.460 And that's why they're not holding anyone accountable.

00:19:19.560 They're not raising the important issues that Canadians demand to know about.

00:19:22.820 not even mentioning the biographical information you said so Ezra I want to say we have a petition

00:19:28.960 that we are launching we want independent media to be part of the upcoming election we demand

00:19:35.300 equal access and we want our voices to be heard we want to get as many Canadians to sign this

00:19:40.740 petition so we can present it to the various parties present it to anyone necessary look

00:19:45.820 there was just a petition to revoke Elon Musk's citizenship I just checked it right before the

00:19:51.240 show Ezra, there's over 300,000 signatures on that of people who want to revoke Elon Musk's

00:19:57.380 citizenship, which is absurd. We can talk about that too. But I want to get that many or more

00:20:02.420 to sign this petition. Head on over to my website, CandiceMalcolm.com, sign the petition and tell the

00:20:08.380 powers that be that we want independent media, not just for me, but I want Ezra to be there too. I

00:20:13.720 want a rebel journalist. I want Kian Bexty there. I want the independent voices. Heck, I don't even

00:20:18.160 mind if they open it up to left-wing independent voices as well sure let like rachel gilmore and 1.00

00:20:22.960 paul wells and other people in there as well but it's so important that we hear more perspectives

00:20:27.600 than just what the cbc wants to present so please help us out go sign that petition ezra like i i

00:20:35.920 mean what can we do at this point to stop the coronation of mark harney well nothing because

00:20:41.040 it's an internal process in the liberal party we don't getting back to ruby dolla we don't even know

00:20:46.720 who was on the secretive panel that kicked her out. We don't know what the rationale was.

00:20:51.720 When I talked to Ruby last Saturday, she raised the issue of the World Economic Forum and the

00:20:57.560 fact that both Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney were on the board. I was sort of surprised that

00:21:02.840 the Ruby dollar raised that issue. You can imagine how that would have been like a skunk at a picnic 0.97

00:21:07.700 had she asked those questions in the debate. And, you know, I saw reports that Mark Carney had very

00:21:15.320 high-level meetings in China recently. Of course, those were not plumbed. In the first French 1.00

00:21:22.480 language debate, they talked a little bit about Hamas. They shut up and didn't mention it again

00:21:27.180 in the second debate. They didn't talk about foreign affairs other than their hatred of Donald

00:21:31.400 Trump. I think they kept out Ruby Dalla because she would have been a dissident and a disruptor. 0.79

00:21:39.400 And from the reports I've seen, she was actually doing well in terms of signing

00:21:45.060 people up and getting donations. Perhaps she was attracting Sikh voters. I don't know. I think that

00:21:52.020 the liberals are undemocratic, and we know that. And they're going to install and select our new

00:21:59.500 prime minister. That is terrifying. It's undemocratic. And I'm afraid, I don't think

00:22:06.720 they're going to get away with it. I think the conservatives are still going to win the next

00:22:10.360 election, but there will be an interim period where you have a leader of the Liberal Party who

00:22:15.600 is installed as Prime Minister without a single election vote being cast for him. Indeed, the

00:22:22.500 Liberal Party rules, as I think you know, Candace, allows people as young as 14 years old to vote and

00:22:28.440 allows foreign nationals who are not yet citizens. They have to be permanent residents. So you can 0.97

00:22:33.080 have 14-year-old children who aren't even Canadian citizens installing a prime minister

00:22:40.240 that the rest of us don't know anything about and haven't been asked for. And of course he's

00:22:45.460 going to do a deal with Jagmeet Singh. Jagmeet Singh is the most compliant and submissive

00:22:51.860 politician I've ever seen in my life. Of course he'll be bribed. And I believe that we're going

00:22:57.600 to have Mark Carney as prime minister until at least October, and they might declare some

00:23:01.860 emergency he's talked about declaring an emergency over trump not so much of an emergency that he

00:23:07.880 didn't hand over his own massive companies in new york city but i i think that we are seeing the

00:23:13.200 again the irony is all these canadian trump derangement syndrome folks talk about trump

00:23:18.380 being an undemocratic dictator trump just won an election including the popular vote and including

00:23:23.740 all battleground states he's acting with his his constitutional purview you cannot say any of those

00:23:29.300 things about how the Liberal Party is conducting itself, from dissolving Parliament to installing

00:23:34.780 an unknown person as Prime Minister, to delaying the vote, to allowing foreigners and children

00:23:41.660 voting. Who is actually the tyrannical and authoritarian and undemocratic government

00:23:47.920 of the two of us? Well, I think that answers itself. And, you know, Trump did it with all

00:23:53.420 of the institutions and powers that be working against him, whereas Trudeau and the Liberals

00:23:57.940 have all of the powers and all of the institutions working for them. Now, it's interesting, Ezra,

00:24:01.600 that you said that you still think that the Conservatives are going to win. I have to jump

00:24:05.100 to this latest Ipsos poll that came out yesterday. Liberals take the lead for the first time since

00:24:10.120 2021. After nearly four years of dominance in the polls, Conservative dominance polls,

00:24:15.240 the Liberal Party has taken a two-point lead, overturning a 26-point deficit in just six weeks.

00:24:22.000 I've never seen anything like this in my entire life of watching politics. So here we have it

00:24:26.460 from Ipsos, a very credible pollster showing the liberals up at 38% and the conservatives down at

00:24:33.280 36. It seems to me, Ezra, that Donald Trump gets a good chuckle out of jeering with Prime Minister

00:24:40.780 Trudeau. He likes calling him Governor Trudeau. He likes the 51st state comment. But every time

00:24:46.140 he makes that comment, the liberals go up in the polls. It makes Canadians crazy. It turns us into,

00:24:51.200 you know, our anti-American impulse comes up. Look, I just want to show this chart from 338 Canada

00:24:57.200 showing the change. Just look at what has happened in 2025, the right-hand side of your screen.

00:25:04.920 The blue dots are all of the Conservatives' leads in different polls, and the Liberals,

00:25:09.920 a very clear trend. Conservatives trending down, Liberals trending up. Whether or not the Liberals

00:25:16.180 are actually ahead. We had another poll from Abacus Data, another very fair, very reputable

00:25:21.520 pollster coming out today, which showed what it's always showed, which is the conservatives do

00:25:28.140 maintain that hefty lead, 41% for the conservatives. The liberals are definitely inching up with 29,

00:25:34.420 but it's still nowhere close. These contradictions, Ezra, they have a lot of us scratching our heads

00:25:39.500 like, is this manufactured? Is the media just trying to pump up these numbers to make it seem

00:25:44.620 like Mark Carty has a chance? Or is there a legitimate shift that's happened in this country?

00:25:50.200 First of all, Justin Trudeau had become the most hated politician in Canada.

00:25:53.960 In fact, in some polls, in many polls, you know, they say, do you like him or like him a lot?

00:25:59.200 Do you dislike him or dislike him a lot? People didn't just dislike Trudeau, they hated him.

00:26:05.480 And I saw some polls that put his likability on by certain demographic groups as though it was 16%.

00:26:11.800 If you were a single young man in the prairies, like 11% supported Trudeau.

00:26:18.840 The man was hated.

00:26:20.080 My point for saying this is if you remove that odious, hateable guy and run a fence post,

00:26:27.060 of course the liberals are going to do better just because they're not running the most hated man in Canada.

00:26:31.780 So removing Trudeau gets rid of a lot of the toxicity.

00:26:36.100 Mark Carney looks good.

00:26:37.260 He looks like a bit of a funeral parlor director, I think, but he looks prime ministerial.

00:26:41.800 He talks well enough. People can visualize him as PM. He's not twitchy and weird like Christia Freeland. And he's having a bit of a honeymoon. The media is certainly egging that on. And so it's to be expected that this gap will narrow.

00:27:01.560 And as you correctly point out, they're wrapping themselves in the Captain Canada flag again, which is funny because a couple years ago they were sending riot horses out against anyone with a Canadian flag who was singing O Canada.

00:27:13.480 I admire David Colletto, the pollster.

00:27:16.160 I used to know him personally.

00:27:18.360 And I know that his company tilts liberal.

00:27:21.500 So if they say something positive about the conservatives, it's not in their nature to do so because if anything, they're going to be a little bit liberal.

00:27:28.180 I trust his methodology.

00:27:30.800 And my own instinct is the gap has narrowed, but it has not closed.

00:27:35.360 But you can see, I mean, Anita Anand has decided to un-retire and to run again.

00:27:42.120 I think some liberals who were desolate and dejected with the Trudeau campaign are now thinking, well, maybe they have a chance.

00:27:51.820 And of course they have a chance.

00:27:53.380 And of course there's, you know, conservative Canadians should not be complacent.

00:27:58.240 but i do think that canada has had it with the liberals i just really think the pendulum is i

00:28:03.020 mean they didn't talk about the things that canadians are concerned about and if they did

00:28:08.600 it was sort of like oj simpson saying i'm going to find the real killers when you've got christia

00:28:13.660 freeland saying i'm going to find out who caused this deficit and who caused housing prices to be

00:28:19.960 so high and when i find her i'm going to give her a piece of my mind yes sister it was you 0.70

00:28:24.920 And I'm not sure how easy it's going to be for the liberals to shuck off nine and a half years of atrocious government. People can't afford homes, inflation, the plunging Canadian dollar. That's why we can't travel to the States and everything is so expensive. You've got millions of migrants who should not be here economically, culturally. The country is in a mess. 1.00

00:28:47.220 And I don't think that Mark Carney is quite the star he set out to be.

00:28:53.400 I don't think he's a great retail politician.

00:28:56.460 Mark my words, he will agree to only a single debate in each language.

00:29:00.600 He does not want to debate against Pierre Paulyev.

00:29:03.020 We've seen the two of them tangle before when Carney appeared in Parliamentary Committee and Paulyev grilled him.

00:29:08.920 Mark Carney is good at being a VVIP.

00:29:12.100 He's good at working in those CEO circles and getting lobbying deals done and getting grants from the Canadian government.

00:29:18.440 And we haven't found the full depth of how he enriched himself and his different companies and clients from the Canadian government because the regime media is not inquisitive.

00:29:30.300 So we have a lot of journalism to do that falls to independent journalists because you're certainly not going to see it from regime journalists.

00:29:38.320 Absolutely.

00:29:38.920 Well, if you look into some of the sort of issues that were touched on during the poll, I want to go back to this David Pledo poll, because when asked what the top issue facing Canadians, the cost of living, the rising cost of living is still far and away the number one concern.

00:29:57.000 The second one has now become Donald Trump and his administration, followed by health care, housing affordability, the economy and immigration.

00:30:04.460 I will note that immigration is now a top six issue, more important than so many of the other

00:30:10.700 issues that the Liberals promote, including climate change and the environment. So immigration really 0.61

00:30:14.580 has become something that Canadians want change on, Ezra. And then when it goes to people were

00:30:21.620 asked what the best party to handle these situations, you could see in the blue,

00:30:26.720 Conservatives, cost of living, majority of Canadians or the plurality of Canadians still

00:30:30.360 say that the Conservatives are best handled to, best situated to handle that. And then the economy,

00:30:35.760 I mean, look at this, 45% say the Conservatives, only 23% say the Libs. The only issue that the

00:30:41.560 Liberals are really leading on is dealing with President Trump and climate change, which is no

00:30:46.840 longer very important to Canadians. So Ezra, this is why I think the scandal on multiple levels

00:30:53.200 hurts Mark Carney, because first of all, Liberals and Canadians trust, they say they trust the

00:30:59.060 liberals most to handle and to deal with and negotiate with President Trump. Well, I think

00:31:04.340 that this undermines it, knowing that their leader and the next prime minister chose in his private

00:31:10.160 life to move his company and recommend that. And then he kind of lied about it. That raises big

00:31:15.640 concerns. I think it undermines their entire credibility on this issue. And then to the

00:31:19.620 second point, which is that we don't know very much about Mark Carney. We don't know very much

00:31:23.840 about his record, but we do know that he's willing to lie about it or willing to twist the truth and

00:31:28.160 weasel words and use technicalities to confuse the issue, which to me, any good journalist,

00:31:34.160 any journalist worth their salt in this country would start digging into that, would start

00:31:38.160 looking into it, would say, you know, what else is here that Mr. Carney is not telling us about?

00:31:44.560 Yeah. You know what? I'm just looking at the David Coletto poll right now.

00:31:47.800 What's interesting is how the Jagmeet Singh numbers have collapsed. They were just last month

00:31:55.000 at 19 and 18%. Now they're down to 14%. And there was a dynamic that happened way back in 2015,

00:32:04.540 for those who remember, where in the final weeks of the campaign, there was an anybody but

00:32:09.740 conservatives movement where people in different districts said, well, what's the best chance

00:32:14.940 of blocking Stephen Harper from being reelected? Is it the liberals in this district or is it the

00:32:19.560 NDP. And in the last two weeks, things really consolidated behind Trudeau. And that may happen.

00:32:26.620 Jagmeet Singh is so weak and so pointless and so ineffective that when the chips are down,

00:32:34.340 I think maybe liberals are going to rally around their new guy, Mark Carney. At least that's what, 0.83

00:32:39.220 that's another story in the poll. So yes, the gap is narrowing. The conservative vote is still

00:32:44.460 strong. 41%, I'm going from the Coleto poll here, that's still a majority government. It's that you

00:32:51.680 see a little bit of consolidation on the left-hand side. I wonder how it will go in Quebec. Mark

00:32:57.800 Carney's French is better than mine, but it's not particularly strong. We haven't yet seen the

00:33:04.940 federal conservatives engage fully. I see some ads, they're running some ads, but we have, I think

00:33:10.160 they're still figuring out their best way to handle things. I was at the rally in Ottawa where

00:33:15.440 they have a real Canada first approach. They're trying to avoid being tagged as Trumpists.

00:33:20.920 You'll notice that Pierre Polyev has not spoken to Trump. He hasn't not gone down to Mar-a-Lago

00:33:27.140 to meet with Trump, but that's diplomatically appropriate. You wouldn't have the leader of

00:33:30.860 the opposition necessarily doing that, although Nigel Farage in the UK has. I think that's Pierre

00:33:35.880 Polly of making a decision not to be lumped in with Trump because you know the liberals would

00:33:42.220 love that. I mean, that's how they're running things right now. There was a hysteria in the

00:33:47.800 liberal debate. I mean, there's Chrystia Freeland calling Trump a predator and saying she wants an 1.00

00:33:52.780 alternative to NATO where she teams up with the nuclear powers of the UK and France or something.

00:33:58.380 And another one of the candidates was talking about working with Mexico to surround America

00:34:05.280 And then Frank Bayless, who's best known for getting a massive Canadian government contract as an ex-MP, he said he wants to actually undo border security between our own countries. 0.96

00:34:17.260 These people are crazy. 0.93

00:34:19.640 But yeah, they're absolutely tapping into that dark side of being Canadians, which is anti-Americanism. 1.00

00:34:25.840 And I look at some of the major regime newspapers, and they've gone nuts also.

00:34:31.160 You have the Globe and Mail demanding that Wayne Gretzky apologize for being friends with Trump.

00:34:37.700 You have General Andrew Coyne of the Globe and Mail.

00:34:40.580 Just I've never seen anyone with Trump derangement like him before.

00:34:43.640 There is a madness amongst the official people of this country about Trump and what's so obviously a joke.

00:34:51.340 Hey, Candace, did you see the video where Marco Rubio explained where the whole 51st state thing came from?

00:34:57.800 Did you see that?

00:34:58.440 I did, yeah.

00:34:59.460 Yeah. And you know what? Peter Doocy of Fox News had made the same explanation. And when it came

00:35:04.020 out, I was so surprised, Ezra. I mean, you can walk us through it, but that the media didn't

00:35:09.200 pick up on this, that it was Trudeau had given it all away and given his adversary, you know,

00:35:13.980 the best line of attack against Canada. It was unbelievable. Yeah. I mean, Trump said,

00:35:19.500 why should we continue to have a $200 billion trade surplus with you? Well, if Trudeau had

00:35:24.760 ever in his life read a briefing note, he would have said, because Mr. President, you're buying

00:35:30.460 that much oil from us. If you didn't buy it from us, you'd buy it from OPEC or even Russia,

00:35:35.240 and you're going to have a trade surplus in oil until American domestic production grows. So

00:35:40.660 that's why. But Trudeau doesn't know that. He's too stupid. He doesn't read his briefing notes.

00:35:46.420 So instead of giving an answer to Trump, he said, well, if we didn't have this trade imbalance,

00:35:51.760 that would mark the end of canada and like it was trudeau who expressed that existential threat

00:35:59.400 it was trudeau who said that would end us as a state and marco rubio says to which trump

00:36:05.160 necessarily said we should become the 51st state it was trudeau that's my point candace it was 0.99

00:36:11.180 justin's stupid trudeau who when pressed about the trade surplus didn't know anything so he said 0.99

00:36:18.380 well, this would mark the end of our independent country. He's the guy who showed his breaking 1.00

00:36:25.100 point to Trump. He gave Trump the weapon to be used against him. And Trump is using it, obviously,

00:36:30.980 as a joke. Very early on, Trump said, of course, he's not going to invade. But these liberals are

00:36:38.000 LARPing. You know what? If only we had a military, if only we had a national identity

00:36:46.140 after 10 years of Trudeau denuding it.

00:36:49.500 You can't take down statues of John A. MacDonald.

00:36:52.300 You can't strip them off the $10 bill.

00:36:54.320 You can't rewrite the lyrics of the anthem.

00:36:57.560 You can't take the photos of Canadian history

00:36:59.740 out of our passport.

00:37:01.160 You can't say we have no core identity.

00:37:03.500 You can't accuse us all of being racist, 0.96

00:37:05.660 sexist, transphobic genociders. 0.91

00:37:08.880 You can't say that the genocide is continuing 1.00

00:37:11.580 and it's understandable that the churches are burning.

00:37:15.220 You can't say that for 10 years and then suddenly say, I'm Captain Canada defending our country.

00:37:21.620 That's why there was, speaking of polls, there was a full poll two weeks ago that showed over 40% of young men want to join America because the alternative is Trudeau's crappy socialist post-national state.

00:37:35.180 And you're a young man who wants a prosperous future.

00:37:38.720 Donald Trump is offering you dollar for dollar American bucks instead of Canadian bucks and the military.

00:37:44.000 it's a little more inspiring than what Trudeau has been talking down our country for 10 years.

00:37:49.440 And suddenly Trudeau and Carney have discovered patriotism. I don't buy it.

00:37:53.560 Well, it's amazing that they're getting away with it and that the media is amplifying it and that

00:37:56.960 Canadians are going along with it, or at least a subset, at least that maybe that core swing voter

00:38:01.420 in suburban Toronto. Those seem to be the ones that could potentially be going over to the

00:38:07.080 liberals. Ezra, and I completely agree with your sentiment there. It's so hypocritical.

00:38:10.960 I want to get to the news, though, about President Trump. He's sowing some confusion over what will happen with these tariffs. So on, when was this? The 26th. So yesterday, Donald Trump, President Trump was speaking to reporters at a cabinet meeting, and he said that the 25% tariffs will be imposed on Canada, Mexico on April 2nd. 0.89

00:38:34.500 So previously we had heard it was going to be March.

00:38:36.440 Well, originally it was supposed to be February, then it was going to be March.

00:38:39.340 Now it's being bumped to April.

00:38:41.300 So let's play that clip.

00:38:43.300 April 2nd.

00:38:44.100 I was going to do it on April 1st, but I'm a little bit superstitious.

00:38:46.740 I made it April 2nd.

00:38:48.440 The tariffs go on.

00:38:50.280 Not all of them, but a lot of them.

00:38:51.920 And I think you're going to see something that's going to be amazing.

00:38:55.820 But then Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick

00:38:58.820 also suggested that the original March 4th deadline

00:39:02.060 for fentanyl and border-related tariffs still holds, but the pause could be in the sort

00:39:07.520 of broader economic tariffs that Trump has suggested, and that there's still time for

00:39:12.660 Canada to satisfy Trump's efforts.

00:39:15.580 Let's play that clip.

00:39:16.580 Fentanyl-related is a pause if they can prove to the president they've done an excellent

00:39:22.640 job.

00:39:23.960 That's what they first do in 30 days, but then the overall is April 2nd.

00:39:28.560 So the big transaction is April 2nd, but the fentanyl related things, they're working hard

00:39:33.700 on the border.

00:39:34.700 At the end of that 30 days, they have to prove to the president that they've satisfied him

00:39:39.700 to that regard.

00:39:40.700 If they have, it'll give them a pause or he won't.

00:39:44.580 So you had a little bit of confusion there, Ezra, and I want to tie this in to your new

00:39:51.800 book, your forthcoming book, which I'm very excited to read because you have sort of been

00:39:55.640 a prolific writer when it comes to Trump and Trudeau.

00:39:58.440 your 2017 book, Trumping Trudeau, How Donald Trump Will Change Canada, even if Justin Trudeau

00:40:03.820 doesn't know it yet. It was a fantastic read, a lot of insight. And I think you've proven to be

00:40:08.880 correct in many of the expressions that you made in that book. Your new book coming out,

00:40:12.340 I don't know if it's out already or if it's coming out, but it's called The Deal of the

00:40:15.520 Century, The America First Plan for Canada's Oil Sands. And I saw that you had an op-ed in

00:40:22.200 The Wall Street Journal on the same topic, How Trump's Tariffs Helped Trudeau and Canada's

00:40:27.580 liberals, which sort of goes to some of the themes that we've been talking about today.

00:40:30.940 So why don't you tell us a little bit about the book, when it's available, where folks can get it,

00:40:36.220 and then you can comment on the latest tariff negotiation, whether or not they're going to

00:40:40.440 happen. Thanks. The book's for sale right now on Amazon. It's called Deal of the Century. And I

00:40:46.340 don't know if you remember, but about a dozen years ago, I wrote a book called Ethical Oil,

00:40:50.380 The Case for Canada's Oil Sense. And that book, it might sound funny coming from me because I'm

00:40:55.460 right wing, but I wrote that book with left-wing arguments. I was trying to convince environmentalists

00:41:02.120 and peaceniks that ethical oil was better than conflict oil based on environmental responsibility,

00:41:08.200 peace, the treatment of workers, and civil rights. I argued that the oil sands were the fair trade

00:41:13.540 coffee of the world's oil industry. So that was a left-wing argument, and it actually sort of worked.

00:41:18.760 But what's an argument that might convince Donald Trump to lay off Canada a bit, especially our

00:41:24.700 number one export, which is the oil sands oil. Well, you're not going to probably win with those

00:41:29.560 liberal arguments. So what's the America first? That's Trump's ideology. That's his philosophy.

00:41:35.960 What would an America first approach be to the oil sands? Well, you wouldn't push it away. You

00:41:40.760 wouldn't tariff it because unlike a factory, which can move into America, you can't move the oil

00:41:47.940 sands into America. So one of the reasons Trump likes tariffs is he says, if you want to sell

00:41:53.560 into America, you better build your company and your factory in America. Well, you can't move the

00:41:57.860 oil sands. So it's not going to work. The tariff is just going to be paid by U.S. refineries.

00:42:03.880 So it'll be straight passed on to American consumers. So it doesn't really make sense

00:42:08.440 economically. And China has already always been snooping around the oil sands a bit. It bought

00:42:15.320 Nexen a decade ago. It would love to get that strategic asset. And I think Trump just likes to

00:42:23.360 yank Trudeau's chain. Trouble is, he's shooting at Trudeau, he's hitting the rest of us.

00:42:28.200 So I say, all right, the America first approach, think like a businessman, think like a real estate

00:42:34.840 tycoon, think of a dealmaker. Look at Trump talking about Greenland and Panama and even Gaza.

00:42:41.080 He's thinking like a real estate man, isn't he? So I propose in this book, I call it the deal of

00:42:46.280 the century, there's 170 billion barrels of oil in the oil sands. Even if the oil sands were to

00:42:54.140 double production, like double it, as Danielle Smith says she wants to do, that would be enough 0.72

00:43:00.020 oil to totally replace all foreign imports into the United States for 50 years. And what's the

00:43:09.940 price on that? 50 years, 170 billion barrels, 75 bucks a barrel. That's a $13 trillion deal.

00:43:21.060 And all of a sudden, America doesn't have to have military bases near the Persian Gulf. The U.S.

00:43:26.700 spends about $50 billion every year just securing the Persian Gulf sea lanes. Why are you doing

00:43:31.860 that? Why not just buy oil from Canada? The companies in the oil sands are either American

00:43:37.620 companies like imperial oil or they're owned by american shareholders why not get all your oil

00:43:43.760 from canada 13 trillion dollar deal and by the way what would trump demand in return for 13 trillion

00:43:49.560 dollars worth of oil he'd say you gotta strengthen your military now you can't make excuses for not

00:43:54.740 having the money we just like i think that the trumpy deal is to pull canada close not to push

00:44:00.920 it away and i have one more idea in the book and it's sort of a funny secret but i'll tell you

00:44:06.680 Candace, I think if Trump wants to zing Trudeau, if he wants to get back at Trudeau, because Trudeau

00:44:12.200 is always beaking off about Trump, how would you do that in a way that doesn't hurt Canada?

00:44:18.260 Well, what did Donald Trump just do to the international criminal court that threatened

00:44:23.180 to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu and do all sorts of other crazy things? He put sanctions on members

00:44:30.100 of that rogue court. What would happen? Hear me out. If Donald Trump would say, hey, Justin Trudeau,

00:44:36.520 i've been reading a lot of your deep thoughts and you say that you have presided over a government

00:44:41.560 that is in the current present tense committing a genocide over your first nations you have

00:44:50.360 confessed it you have said there's a genocide ongoing canada and you are presiding over it

00:44:57.360 we are putting you on a sanctions list you're not allowed to come to the united states anymore

00:45:01.940 we're going to freeze your assets down here and uh and you're telling me that wouldn't bother

00:45:08.540 trudeau endlessly he loves trudeau loves going down to new york it's sort of what happens in

00:45:13.380 new york stays in new york he's down there all the time he goes on there and talk shows he parties

00:45:18.960 because most people don't know who he is down there trump should get even with trudeau by

00:45:23.920 banning him from america and seizing his bank accounts down there don't take it out on the

00:45:29.020 rest of us with tariffs. So I had that sort of fun, controversial part of the book, too.

00:45:34.220 Anyhow, the book's doing well. You saw that op-ed in the Wall Street Journal. I was sort of

00:45:38.900 surprised to be in such a prestigious publication. Well, congratulations.

00:45:43.080 Thanks. I'm going to try my best to get this book into the hands of the America First crew. Let me

00:45:48.240 say one quick thing. You mentioned Howard Lutnick. He's Trump's Commerce Secretary. Do you know a

00:45:53.200 little bit about Howard Lutnick? I think he's the most interesting guy, maybe other than Elon Musk,

00:45:57.700 in the whole cabinet. Do you know his story? Do you know who he is at home?

00:46:01.020 Vaguely, but you can tell the audience.

00:46:03.840 The CEO of a huge investment firm called Cantor Fitzgerald. And they became famous in a terrible

00:46:12.840 way. They had the top floors of the World Trade Center. And so on 9-11, when the Jets came in

00:46:19.220 and hit underneath Cantor Fitzgerald, every single person up there died. Now, Howard Lutnick was late

00:46:26.760 for work that day because he was taking his child to kindergarten for the first day. But his brother

00:46:31.940 was in the top of the tower. His brother died that day, as did hundreds of his staff. It was the most

00:46:38.380 devastating thing. And he built back up and he raised $180 million for the families of the

00:46:46.260 deceased. But he was a huge victim of terrorism, including the loss of his own brother. And he's

00:46:53.900 had other tragedies in his life that are almost as shocking as that. And he's come back. He's a

00:46:58.880 huge optimist. He's a huge entrepreneurial capitalist. He's got a larger than life

00:47:04.700 personality, sort of like Trump. The two of them get along like peas in a pod. And Lutnick,

00:47:11.620 I think he's got Trump's enthusiasm, but he's maybe 5% less effusive. So it was Lutnick who

00:47:19.280 said to the Senate in January, on these tariffs of Canada, we're just trying to get them to do

00:47:26.100 action on the border part. It's not actually to punish them. So I think, listen to Lutnick,

00:47:31.560 and you'll probably see where Trump is going. I don't think Howard Lutnick wants these tariffs.

00:47:37.540 He just wants Canada to strengthen the border, and he's using the tariffs as sort of a tool.

00:47:42.300 Now, the Canadian side wants the fight. That's my argument in my book, is that Trudeau and

00:47:47.700 Carney actually want this battle with America so they can play hero. By the way, Lutnik is

00:47:53.060 brilliant on companies getting tax loopholes overseas. I won't go into that now, but I think

00:48:00.460 he's really... Elon Musk and Howard Lutnik, I think, are the two most interesting men in this

00:48:05.020 cabinet. Well, I shouldn't say that. There's Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as well. It's sort of an

00:48:08.480 amazing dream team. Anyhow, so Lutnik would make me believe that these tariffs on Canada are just

00:48:15.360 to get us to fix our border. So if Lutnik and Trump can be convinced that the border is fixed,

00:48:21.100 the tariffs won't come. Well, we've seen that so far, because all it took was Trudeau

00:48:25.300 announcing some measures, taking Daniel Smith's idea and appointing a fentanyl czar. And just like

00:48:30.780 that, they agreed to it. You raised so many interesting points, and I really urge the

00:48:36.640 audience to go pick up a copy of your book, Ezra. But just one thing, finally, when he was dealing

00:48:41.360 with the Colombians. Remember, they had two airplanes full of Colombian illegals that they 0.98

00:48:46.040 were trying to send home. The Colombian government said, no, we're not allowing these planes to land.

00:48:50.060 And what did Trump do? Apparently, from like the third hole of a golf course, he got on his phone

00:48:54.740 and basically said, you know, not only will you face all these tariffs that will be devastating

00:49:00.320 your economy, but the regime, the president himself and his cabinet, all of their family

00:49:05.820 members will no longer be able to be in the United States, will revoke all of their visas.

00:49:09.680 And to the point you made earlier in the show, Ezra, we don't know where Mark Carney lives.

00:49:14.680 Apparently his wife lives in New York City. He's about to be the next Prime Minister.

00:49:18.680 So maybe Trump could apply that not just to Trudeau, but to the entire Liberal cabinet,

00:49:22.680 because I think a lot of those people spend a lot of time in the US.

00:49:25.680 They love going to the US. They love spending time there.

00:49:27.680 And yet, you know, on the debate stage at the Liberal debate, they told Canadians not to go to Florida,

00:49:32.680 not to go visit relatives in the US or shop at American stores,

00:49:36.680 even though basically our entire country is filled with nothing but American stores and products.

00:49:41.400 So a lot of a lot of hypocrisy and contradictions. I'll leave the last word to you, Ezra.

00:49:47.960 You know, I'm I think we're lucky that Donald Trump is very, very busy.

00:49:53.400 If he's not trying to solve the war in Russia, Ukraine, he's trying to solve Middle East peace

00:49:57.800 with Abraham Accords part two. He's dealing with China. He's dealing with the fires in LA. He's

00:50:03.240 getting his candidates through the Senate confirmation. He's a tiny bit busy, this

00:50:08.600 doge thing, managing Elon Musk. So we're lucky in that Donald Trump doesn't have that much time to

00:50:15.960 follow our navel gazing, to follow our Trump derangement syndrome, because I think he would

00:50:22.040 be appalled by how a country that calls itself America's best ally conducts itself. And I'm not

00:50:28.820 even talking about our lack of participation in NATO, our lack of a border security, the foreign

00:50:35.980 policy of bringing in unvetted Gazans. That's crazy. So we are lucky that Donald Trump doesn't

00:50:42.900 know how badly behaved our establishment is. I can hardly wait for Pierre Paulyev to win

00:50:49.100 just to stop the madness. And Candace, I do think he's going to win. Thanks for plugging my book.

00:50:54.640 I think the target of the book is the Americans.

00:50:58.280 I want to convince them it is not in their interest to tariff Canada.

00:51:03.120 But boy, Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney are sure working hard to get those tariffs on us.

00:51:08.500 I think you're right.

00:51:09.280 I think it really benefits the liberals.

00:51:10.860 The more Trump says 51st state, the better they do.

00:51:13.360 And they're going to keep hitting that point and trying to drum up that trade war.

00:51:17.560 Well, Ezra, it's always a pleasure to have you on the show.

00:51:19.400 Thank you so much for joining us.

00:51:20.360 Everybody, please go check out Ezra's book, Deal of the Century.

00:51:23.640 and we'll have to have you on again soon.

00:51:26.220 Thank you, Ezra.

00:51:27.060 Thank you.

00:51:28.720 All right, folks, it's all the time we have for today.

00:51:31.020 Thank you so much for tuning in.

00:51:32.620 We will be back again tomorrow with all the news.

00:51:34.340 I'm Candice Malcolm.

00:51:35.120 This is the Candice Malcolm Show.

00:51:36.260 Thank you and God bless.
