00:00:00.320 Prime Minister, did you get a chance to arrange a call with President Trump?
00:00:08.240 We will need to ensure that Canada can succeed in a drastically different world.
00:00:15.040 The old relationship we had with the United States based on deepening integration of our economies
00:00:20.160 and tight security and military cooperation is over.
00:00:25.200 The 2025 federal election is underway, and according to public opinion polls,
00:00:30.160 the number one issue on many voters' minds is U.S. President Donald Trump,
00:00:35.440 what his tariff threats will mean for the Canadian economy and the future of our country,
00:00:40.000 and which leader can best deal with this curveball.
00:00:44.080 Well, let's be clear, this is the number one issue on the minds of left-wing Canadians,
00:00:49.520 and specifically the baby boomer generation and those aged 60 years and older.
00:00:55.200 Take a look at this chart, courtesy of Kirk Lubomov on X.
00:00:59.680 It tells it all.
00:01:01.200 For Canadians over 60 years old, 50% of them say that Trump is the top issue in this election.
00:01:08.880 All of the other age demographics all say that the cost of living is still their top election issue.
00:01:16.000 But on the issue of who can best deal with President Trump,
00:01:19.760 Canadians who think that that is the top election issue,
00:01:22.640 also say that they think that Mark Carney is the man best suited for the job.
00:01:28.400 Now, I want to speak directly to those Canadians.
00:01:31.280 Mark Carney is only pretending to be tough on Trump.
00:01:34.640 He's only pretending to put Canada first.
00:01:37.360 This is a classic bait and switch.
00:01:40.240 And now, we have evidence that this is the case.
00:01:43.200 Take a look at this article, dated Wednesday, March 26th,
00:01:47.120 written by Ian Bremmer and published by G0 Media.
00:01:52.400 The headline says,
00:01:53.680 The end of the transatlantic relationship as we know it.
00:01:57.360 Now allow me to read from this article.
00:01:59.440 It says,
00:02:00.160 Donald Trump's second term is having considerably more impact on the global stage than his first.
00:02:05.920 It goes on, it says later in the article,
00:02:08.080 America's largest trading partners, Mexico and Canada,
00:02:11.840 are facing more significant trade pressures from the Trump administration.
00:02:16.080 But the imbalance of power is such that they have no credible strategy to push back.
00:02:21.360 Everyone understands they'll have to accept Trump's terms eventually.
00:02:26.000 The only question is whether capitulation comes before or after a costly fight.
00:02:32.080 Well, isn't that interesting?
00:02:33.200 He basically says that Canada will lose no matter what.
00:02:35.920 And we have no credible strategy to push back.
00:02:40.240 Now allow me to continue.
00:02:42.400 He talks a little bit about Mexico and then he goes back to Canada.
00:02:44.800 So he says,
00:02:45.520 By contrast, Canadian leaders have a political incentive to put up a bigger fight
00:02:50.720 because Trump's threats towards Canada's economy and sovereignty
00:02:54.880 have sharply inflamed nationalist sentiment north of the border in the run-up to the April 28th elections.
00:03:02.480 Now here is the key part right here.
00:03:03.840 It says,
00:03:04.560 However, I expect Ottawa will quietly fold after the vote
00:03:11.280 to ensure that ongoing relations with the U.S. remain functional.
00:03:16.560 Canada will quietly fold, he says.
00:03:19.120 So Ian Bremmer says that Canadian leaders are faking it,
00:03:22.880 that they're only pretending to put up a fight against President Trump,
00:03:26.240 and that they will quietly fold to the Americans after the election campaign.
00:03:31.520 Okay, so what does this all have to do with liberal leader Mark Carney?
00:03:35.920 Well, everything.
00:03:37.040 The author Ian Bremmer runs the Eurasia Group.
00:03:40.400 He's the president and the founder of that organization.
00:03:44.480 Now, if that sounds familiar, it's because that's where Mark Carney's wife, Diane Fox Carney,
00:03:50.240 well, that's where she works. 1.00
00:03:51.840 Ian is her boss.
00:03:54.000 Who else works at the Eurasia Group with Ian?
00:03:56.640 None other than Gerald Butts, the hard left environmentalist,
00:04:01.120 Justin Trudeau's best friend, policy architect, and principal secretary.
00:04:06.320 Trudeau threw Butts under the bus to take the blame for the SNC-Lavalin scandal,
00:04:11.520 where they pressured Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould to cut a sweetheart deal with a large liberal donor.
00:04:18.960 Well, once Butts was pushed out of government,
00:04:21.360 he hopped over to join Bremmer as the vice chairman of the Eurasia Group.
00:04:26.240 Liberal insider Warren Kinsella spilled the beans on social media
00:04:29.680 that Gerald Butts was now back in politics and working for Mark Carney.
00:04:34.720 Here is what Warren Kinsella wrote back on January 12th.
00:04:38.800 He said,
00:04:39.360 Mark Carney is the team Trudeau candidate.
00:04:42.000 His campaign is being run by Gerald Butts, Katie Telford et al.,
00:04:46.320 the ones who had to resign due to scandal or who had been implicated in multiple scandals,
00:04:51.520 the ones who reduced the liberal party down to 16%, Carney equals Trudeau.
00:04:57.520 Well, the Globe and Mail also recently confirmed this claim
00:05:00.800 and reported that Gerald Butts is indeed advising Mark Carney on the campaign trail.
00:05:06.720 This is the way that they describe Gerald Butts.
00:05:09.280 They write,
00:05:10.080 Eurasia Group vice chair Gerald Butts, Mr. Trudeau's principal secretary from 2015 to 2019,
00:05:16.640 who has been offering advice to Mr. Carney.
00:05:19.840 What a nice way of putting it.
00:05:21.600 And the connections with the Eurasia Group don't end there.
00:05:24.960 Former CBC journalist turned liberal party candidate Evan Solomon.
00:05:29.680 Isn't it cute how that works, the revolving door between the CBC and the liberal party?
00:05:34.240 Well, Evan Solomon is also part of this story.
00:05:37.520 Solomon, as it turns out, got fired as a journalist several years ago over ethical issues
00:05:44.080 surrounding high-priced fine art deals that he was facilitating through his journalism.
00:05:50.880 It turned out that one of the wealthy buyers that Solomon was coordinating art sales with,
00:05:55.840 while also pretending to interview them through his journalism, was none other than Mark Carney.
00:06:01.120 Check out this headline in the UK Guardian.
00:06:03.280 It says,
00:06:04.080 Canadian journalist sacked in scandal involving art sale to Mark Carney.
00:06:09.360 Bank of England governor was interviewed on CBC, the national broadcaster, by Evan Solomon,
00:06:15.280 who brokered deals and took secret commissions, says reports.
00:06:19.680 Well, the disgraced former journalist picked up a cushy job with, you guessed it, the Eurasia Group.
00:06:26.880 According to his bio, he is a member of the Eurasia Group's management committee,
00:06:32.000 and he's also the publisher of GZERO Media, the very publication that we're talking about,
00:06:39.360 where Ian Bremmer admitted the plan for Canada to fold to President Trump right after the election.
00:06:46.480 Now, to be fair, Ian Bremmer is an American political scientist and businessman focused
00:06:52.400 on global political risk. He's not a Canadian, and he's not really a liberal insider because he's
00:06:57.760 not part of the Canadian Liberal Party, but he is surrounded by the creme de la creme of liberal
00:07:04.080 insiders in Canada, including the prime minister's wife, the prime minister's principal advisor,
00:07:09.520 and one of Mark Carney's star liberal candidates.
00:07:12.720 Ian Bremmer is also paid to be in the know. That's his job. His job is to predict what will happen
00:07:19.520 politically and then to advise his clients on their risk profile. So he is basing these comments
00:07:26.320 off of a deep knowledge and understanding of what the liberal campaign is presumably thinking
00:07:32.880 and saying behind closed doors. Now, he wrote this to a US audience, probably not thinking very much
00:07:38.400 about the impact it would have on Canada, but I think it's a game changer. They said the quiet part
00:07:44.880 out loud. Mark Carney is only pretending to put up a fight with Donald Trump. He's only pretending to put
00:07:52.720 Canada first. The entire elbows up campaign is just a show. It's a bait and switch. And as soon as the election
00:08:00.160 is over, his plan is to fold to President Trump's demands. Please share this video so that more Canadians
00:08:08.720 will see the truth. Thank you so much. I'm Candace Malcolm for Juno News. Thank you and God bless.
