00:00:00.000 Moving on to the next story. We turn our attention to the CBC, which is quite exciting. We're doing
00:00:04.580 it for the very first time. Certainly won't be the last. And we appreciate what the CBC
00:00:09.600 does. They give us so much content to laugh at, so much content to make fun of, and really
00:00:14.140 just to have a good chuckle about. But I think this next video we might have a little trouble
00:00:18.620 laughing at because it's really just not that funny. And I'll invite you to try and join
00:00:23.720 me in this challenge. I want to see if we can laugh at this comedy sketch. Now, for
00:00:28.140 those of you that don't know, June is of course Pride Month. We all knew that because everywhere
00:00:32.200 you look on social media, it's being forced on us. Every single corporation, every leftist
00:00:36.680 politician, they want to virtue signal their support for the Pride community. But for those
00:00:43.100 of you that don't know, June is also the National Indigenous History Month. Now, if you were to ask
00:00:48.140 me, I think that's a cultural conflict. You can't have the Indigenous population and the 1.00
00:00:52.920 Pride community, whatever we want to call them, sharing the same month. Surely one of them
00:00:57.380 needs their own month. But for the time being, they have to share June. And the CBC is actually
00:01:01.840 doing their best to highlight some Indigenous voices. And they are using TikTok to put forward
00:01:07.780 some CBC comedy. This is some taxpayer-funded comedy, stand-up. I think the idea is that we're
00:01:13.380 supposed to laugh, guys. But I don't know. Let's see. Let's see if we find this clip funny.
00:01:18.100 So this is a clip from a woman named Janelle Niles. She is an Indigenous comedian. And guys,
00:01:25.320 this is what state-sponsored stand-up looks like. Let's see if we can laugh.
00:01:30.000 My name is Janelle Niles, and I'm a First Nations Mi'kmaq
00:01:34.460 woman from Sipikinacadik, Nova Scotia. And my spirit name is First Rays of the Sun Woman.
00:01:44.600 But my parents like to call me, hey, go back to bed. But First Rays of the Sun Woman, that's 0.63
00:01:54.340 a long spirit name, eh? Normally, you'd get like Fish Boy. Or Bear With Me.
00:02:05.160 Okay, just stop. What's with that chuckle in the background? It's not that funny. Is that
00:02:11.740 a state-sponsored laugh as well?
00:02:13.300 But I think the creator named me that. Because every morning, at the crack of dawn, I go outside
00:02:20.620 and I sing my traditional Indigenous morning song.
00:02:25.980 That was it. Did we miss the punchline or something?
00:02:39.120 Anyway, that, folks, is state-sponsored comedy. I don't know where the joke was there. Clearly,
00:02:48.700 I missed it. Let me know if you found it. But I certainly wasn't howling and chuckling like
00:02:55.700 that woman was in the background. 1.00
