00:00:00.000Hi, I'm Candace Malcolm and this is the Candace Malcolm Show news update.
00:00:05.080Today is Thursday, March 6, 2026, and these are your top stories of the day.
00:00:10.120One can never categorically rule out participation. We will stand by our allies.
00:00:16.080But the idea that we can have a permanent rupture with our closest neighbor and biggest customer in favor of a strategic partnership for a new world order with China is not on.
00:00:27.000confidential do not distribute that is almost a 30 drop that's crazy and so we're going to get to
00:00:38.080that incredible scoop by northern perspective they obtained internal documents from the cbc
00:00:43.580showing the cbc is just in total free fall it is a dumpster fire over there and the cbc is panicking
00:00:49.460you're going to want to stick around to the end of the episode to hear about that we're also going
00:00:52.380to go through pierre polyev's incredible interview over at trigonometry i think this is one of his
00:00:56.920best performances I have ever seen. But first, we're going to get into the evolution of Mark
00:01:03.900Carney's position on Iran. We covered this yesterday. And since yesterday's show, there
00:01:07.720has been yet another flip-flop, flip-flop. Now, Mark Carney is musing that Canada might join
00:01:13.300the operation. This episode is brought to you by Silver Gold Bull, but more on them in just a few
00:01:19.680minutes. Okay, folks. So I'll just start by showing you this little video that we made here
00:01:25.300on the Candace Walker Show, showing the evolution of Mark Carney. I know it's hard to keep up,
00:01:29.880but he went from supporting the attacks to calling for diplomacy instead, to calling for a ceasefire,
00:01:35.020to saying that the attack violates international law, to now saying that Canada might just join
00:01:40.480in. We might just join in on the attack. So let's play this video for you.
00:01:48.820Canada supports the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon
00:01:54.520and to prevent its regime from further threatening international peace and security.
00:02:00.200Canada believes in a diplomatic and peaceful solution.
00:02:06.200And as soon as possible, we would like parties to get to the table.
00:02:10.820And the Prime Minister and the government decided from the beginning of this
00:02:19.320But we're also calling for a diplomatic end to it.
00:02:23.720We very much would prefer to see peace at a ceasefire.
00:02:28.240The United States and Israel have acted without engaging the United Nations
00:02:31.680or consulting allies, including Canada.
00:02:34.700We implore all parties, including the United States and Israel,
00:02:37.940to respect the rules of international engagement.
00:02:41.260One can never categorically rule out participation.
00:02:45.460We will stand by our allies, but it makes sense.
00:02:47.940There's a distinction between the offensive actions that were taken and are being taken by the United States and Israel, that were taken by them without consultation with Canada, with other allies, and we're not party to those actions.
00:04:44.480but it makes sense. There's a distinction between the offensive actions that were taken
00:04:51.720and are being taken by the United States and Israel, that were taken by them without
00:04:56.600consultation with Canada, with other allies, and we're not party to those actions. But we will
00:05:03.200always defend Canadians. We will always stand by and defend our allies when called upon.
00:05:10.140And so rightfully, that left a lot of room for reporters who were there saying,
00:05:14.480wait, what? What are you talking about? I thought that you opposed this. I thought that you had
00:05:17.880turned and that you were opposed it. So here you see, I'll show you the first clip of a back and
00:05:22.160forth with a journalist where the journalist is saying, why didn't you call for de-escalation
00:05:26.580from the very beginning? Because that's what you were saying yesterday. Why not say that on Saturday
00:05:30.520and sort of grilling him on that? Let's show you that clip. You're calling for de-escalation of
00:05:34.820hostilities in Iran. Your comments at the Institute last night acknowledged there was
00:05:39.900predictability that this conflict would be widening besides the initial strike.
00:05:45.480So if that was your logic from the outset, why in your first statement did
00:05:51.000you not call for any kind of de-escalation? Because it was the very,
00:05:55.500look, it was the very beginning. We made a statement, Australia made a statement
00:06:00.120within hours of the beginning of the hostilities and the objectives of the
00:06:06.420hostilities, as we understood it, could not have been achieved in that in that period.
00:06:11.620And then likewise, another reporter following up saying, Mr. Carney, you can't have it both ways.
00:06:16.340You can't say that the that you support the attack and you support the assault, but that also it
00:06:22.020violates international law. Like that is an obvious inherent contradiction that even the left wing
00:06:26.820media and legacy media that are there are pushing him on and calling him out. And again, just look
00:06:32.020at the total weakness uh really really just like being petty and defending himself and not really
00:06:37.140able to clearly articulate what his position is this is not a good look for the prime minister
00:06:41.300on the world stage i'll show you that clip the prime minister how can you have it both ways how
00:06:44.820can you say you initially you i i you understand your first statement you said was made in hours
00:06:50.500but you also said there was some predictability you knew this was going to widen so how can you
00:06:54.100have it both ways and in hindsight should you have called for de-escalation in that first statement
00:06:58.260No, in hindsight, to that point, in my judgment.
00:07:05.260Secondly, in terms of war, there are likelihoods, there are possibilities.
00:07:14.800You have to plan for the worse, but there are no certainties in conflict.
00:07:20.280And so now that the conflict has moved on, now that the conflict is involving a much wider group,
00:07:27.940but even if, I don't want to say even if, but moving into the Gulf, moving into civilian
00:07:34.720infrastructure, we're saying a few things. One, it is not solely the decision of the principal
00:07:41.600belligerence to move to the de-escalation. Inflation, a stagnant economy, low growth,
00:07:49.480a trade war, and the declining Canadian dollar all put your savings and your retirement at risk.
