00:00:00.000 Welcome everyone to TrueNorth's newest show, Ratio. My name is Harrison Faulkner. I don't
00:00:12.320 know how much longer we're going to be able to hold on to that title as newest show at TrueNorth
00:00:16.460 because at the rate at which we're growing here, we may or may not have new shows every single
00:00:20.180 week. So if you like what we're doing at TrueNorth, give us a like, share the video, and if you're
00:00:24.060 feeling generous, consider donating to us using the links in the video description. On the show
00:00:28.120 this week, we are going to be making fun of our private jet-setting climate evangelist Prime
00:00:31.960 Minister Justin Trudeau. We're going to be making fun of Jagmeet Singh because, well, he just makes
00:00:36.520 it kind of pretty easy for us. We're going to be watching this insane video from a Canadian recruiter,
00:00:42.400 and to wrap it all up, we're going to be handing out some hardware to our Transportation Minister
00:00:46.040 Omar Al-Gabra. Let's get into it. Now, last weekend, Trudeau flew down to California for the Summit of
00:00:51.680 the Americas, and while he was there, he and his buddy Governor Gavin Newsom signed some sort of
00:00:57.720 Canada-California Climate Pact Agreement. Now, to launch this agreement, to announce this
00:01:02.840 agreement, Justin Trudeau and Gavin Newsom appeared in what may be one of the most cringe videos of
00:01:08.740 all time. Watch this.
00:01:10.380 Hey, everyone. Bonjour tout le monde. I'm in California today with Governor Newsom. We're signing
00:01:15.660 an agreement to make sure we continue the deep partnership we've had on fighting climate change,
00:01:21.080 on protecting our environment, in creating good green jobs, and moving forward in ways that really
00:01:25.860 matter to people. C'est un grand plaisir de pouvoir travailler si proche avec la Californie
00:01:30.180 sur les enjeux qui sont importants pour les Canadiens.
00:01:32.840 Governor Newsom, talk about this partnership.
00:01:34.840 Oh, désolé, je ne parle en français.
00:01:36.580 But you don't have to speak the same language to understand that we're all in this together.
00:01:40.620 Divorce is not an option.
00:01:41.800 What?
00:01:42.580 And so we're here on the issue that extends, I think, a global consciousness, and that's
00:01:47.440 the issue of climate change. And you're in a state where we're experiencing the extremes.
00:01:52.540 And so we're on the leading and cutting edge of not only dealing with the realities of
00:01:55.600 it, but also the opportunities. And that's why it's so wonderful to have you down here,
00:01:59.140 Prime Minister, to focus on those partnerships and the opportunity of dance together.
00:02:04.040 We only build a better world if we're doing it together. And gathering like-minded partners
00:02:08.000 like California and Governor Newsom is the way that we make this better future a reality
00:02:13.460 for everyone.
00:02:14.520 Oh, my God. Talk about cringe. I mean, this is just absolutely brutal. We could have played
00:02:18.820 the whole two minute plus video for you, but you would have all turned off the video. And
00:02:22.760 so we spared you. We spared you from having to watch that absolute cringe fest. Now, the
00:02:26.580 reason we show these videos to you is not to make you want to pull your eyeballs out,
00:02:31.080 but that would be an understandable response. The reason we do this is to pull up the responses,
00:02:35.480 the replies, because when Trudeau puts something out like this, people just never miss with
00:02:40.380 their perfect responses. And let's just go through a couple of them. We've got the best
00:02:44.480 one I think of them all, which is, this has got to be one of the most beta male videos
00:02:49.260 I've ever had the misfortune of laying eyes on. It really is. I mean, these two guys are
00:02:54.480 complete betas. That's just the perfect way to summarize what's going on here.
00:02:59.680 Here's another good one. California is a great example of how to fight climate change by making
00:03:03.880 everyone homeless. A great point, actually, because at this rate, Vancouver and Toronto are
00:03:08.820 doing the same thing. Maybe that's Trudeau's new climate change strategy as well, just making
00:03:12.600 us all homeless and poor. And lastly, here's a quote tweet that doesn't miss at all. This is
00:03:16.940 what toxic femininity looks like completely. Could you find me two more feminine guys than
00:03:21.840 Justin Trudeau and Gavin Newsom? I dare you. That's, that's my challenge to you in the comments. Let me
00:03:26.100 know who is more feminine than Gavin Newsom and Justin Trudeau. Now, conveniently for our prime
00:03:31.280 minister on his way home on the week in which he faced major internal caucus division over his
00:03:37.380 ridiculously punitive vaccine travel mandate. Probably one of the most destructive and ridiculous
00:03:44.580 domestic policies ever enacted by a Canadian federal government. But that's, that's beside the
00:03:48.620 point. On the same week that he's facing divisions in his caucus over that policy, and on the same week
00:03:53.840 that he's trying to quietly slip through internet censorship legislation, egregious censorship legislation
00:03:59.460 in Bill C-11, Trudeau just so happens to catch COVID. Isn't it funny? Isn't it funny that Justin Trudeau
00:04:06.160 happens to catch COVID for what? Is it the third time now? Every single time before he has to face
00:04:12.180 scrutiny, before he has to face public backlash, he finds a way to quietly slip away to his cottage
00:04:18.320 to avoid having to face the public. Funny, isn't it? So Justin Trudeau broke the news that he had
00:04:24.580 contracted COVID over his trip to the United States via Twitter. Thank goodness he did. I was deeply
00:04:29.800 concerned about the health of our prime minister. You know, I was thinking after three times, surely this one
00:04:34.800 must be dangerous. Surely he must be in trouble with this, with this round of COVID. But no, thankfully,
00:04:39.940 he told us that he was feeling safe. In the tweet, he wrote, I've tested positive for COVID-19. I'll be
00:04:45.500 following public health guidelines and isolating. I feel okay. Thank goodness. But that's because I got
00:04:50.660 my shots. So if you haven't, get vaccinated. And if you can, get boosted. Let's protect our healthcare
00:04:56.140 system, each other and ourselves. He's not feeling fine because he's had COVID three times, because he has a
00:05:02.340 statistically zero, basically a 0% chance of dying, or that he's in a low risk age group. No, no, he's
00:05:10.280 feeling fine because he's got boosted. He got vaccinated and he wants you to get vaccinated too.
00:05:14.920 Of course he does. Now, keep in mind, all of this was before Justin Trudeau suspended the vaccine
00:05:19.620 mandate. So Justin Trudeau, infected with COVID, can enter and leave Canada whenever he pleases. But you,
00:05:25.560 the hardworking taxpayer, are trapped inside of your own country. Now, maybe, and I'm just saying maybe,
00:05:30.960 because I don't want to be labeled as a conspiracy theorist, maybe Justin Trudeau coincidentally got
00:05:36.820 COVID to justify dropping one of the most egregious authoritarian policies probably ever enacted by a
00:05:44.780 Canadian government. So in Trudeau's world, just for him, you can get on a plane infected with COVID
00:05:50.040 and put others at risk. Remember this clip, Justin? Remember what you said during the campaign last year?
00:05:54.860 You know what? If you don't want to get vaccinated, that's your choice. But don't think you can get on
00:06:01.480 a plane or a train besides vaccinated people and put them at risk. Now, I would sure hope you didn't
00:06:08.040 put any of your staff at risk while on that plane back to Canada, but I would likely imagine that's
00:06:12.620 not the case. Just try and keep up with what you're saying to Canadians. Now, it's only June 16th,
00:06:17.020 which means there's another two weeks left of Pride Month, which really means we have another two weeks
00:06:21.360 of having to endure politicians on the left pandering to the gay community. Now, to this day, I still
00:06:26.880 don't know what they're pandering for, what exactly Canada needs Pride Month for, but nonetheless,
00:06:32.820 every single politician on the left is wearing pins, making videos, making TikToks, trying to show
00:06:39.460 how much of an ally they are to the gay community. And Jagmeet Singh gave us probably the worst video
00:06:45.580 of the week, the most ridiculous video of the week, in which he's asking people to give him gay songs
00:06:51.180 for his playlist. Let's watch this clip. All right, so I got a dilemma. I need to update my playlist for
00:06:56.720 Pride. Why? Why? Why? If you have any recommendations for any queer Canadian artists, send them my way.
00:07:04.140 Hashtag Pride and text me at 613-801-8210. Thank you so much. So there it is, guys. Jagmeet Singh wants you
00:07:12.400 to send him some queer music, some queer artists for him to listen to, because he's really so hard at work.
00:07:18.000 The man working for the working class, Jagmeet Singh. He's got his hands full, but he's got enough time
00:07:23.500 to ask for some queer music. Think about how many funny things you can do with this, too. How many
00:07:28.520 funny songs you can send to Jagmeet Singh at 613-801-8210. This is maybe not an endorsement to
00:07:36.160 spam the number, but send him a text. Send him a text. He's giving you the number. Let's do something
00:07:40.320 about this. But there were some great responses to this, of course, because when you put something out
00:07:45.300 that's that ridiculous, you just have to know that what you're going to get back is going to be
00:07:50.000 great. Here's a good one. Hard at work, Jagmeet Singh. Hard at work solving the world's problems.
00:07:54.340 I mean, really, I think Jagmeet Singh's vision for Canada is to solve the world's problems one queer
00:07:59.480 song at a time. That's a fair thing to do. It's pretty NDP these days. Just living up to the party
00:08:04.720 standard, I think. And kind of the perfect quote tweet, really. Just summarizing exactly how we feel
00:08:10.540 when we're all watching something like this, which is the average home now costs $816,720.
00:08:16.240 So Jagmeet Singh, supposedly, like I said, the man working for the working class, the working class
00:08:21.160 leader, the man who's supposed to be there for Canada's youth to help us get homes, he's asking
00:08:25.420 us to send him some gay music when the average home price across the country is over $800,000.
00:08:30.980 Now, when I was looking on TikTok for videos to talk about this week on the show, I stumbled upon a
00:08:35.880 video that I think may be one of the craziest videos I've ever seen. In it, a woman who I think
00:08:41.140 has had a few too many glasses of white wine breaks out her phone and starts ranting her frustrations
00:08:46.500 and her plans to take down and destroy the lives of people who supported the trucker convoy in
00:08:52.180 Ottawa. Basically, this woman is a recruiter, an HR person, and she talks about her strategy to track
00:08:58.100 every single person who posted about their support of the trucker convoy on social media and get you
00:09:04.120 fired for cause from your job. Just watch this crazy, crazy video.
00:09:09.380 ...rights and freedom that would tell you that, but since you seem to forget that and you're all
00:09:13.360 loud and proud with your big thoughts and your big ideas and you want to whatever and set up hot
00:09:19.660 tubs in Ottawa, I'm a recruiter. It's a small, small, small industry. Smaller than you'd think.
00:09:27.060 Same with HR. So if you're looking for a job or maybe trying to keep a job...
00:09:33.380 First of all, look at those eyes. That is a crazy person. That is a total nutter.
00:09:39.840 Maybe trying to keep a job. Maybe. Just maybe. Think about what you're putting on social media.
00:09:52.640 Again, freedom fighters. I know you're not really big with stats and, you know, facts aren't your thing,
00:09:59.300 you know. But what I can tell you, what is a fact, is that recruiters talk. And recruiters,
00:10:07.220 like the majority of Canada, don't agree with you. Do you know what that means?
00:10:12.180 Do you have any guesses? Any guesses what that means? What that means is that if you need a job,
00:10:17.280 you might not get one. If you want to keep a job, you might not get to do that.
00:10:21.640 So, again, I'm new to this TikTok app. Can someone tell me? I'm guessing that she's got some sort of
00:10:28.900 filter over her eyes. Well, I'm actually, I'm hoping she does because this is just absolutely
00:10:34.580 freaky.
00:10:35.140 You know what else HR is good at? Documentation. You know what that means? You want to be in
00:10:42.760 law? We document it. We give you a couple tries. Then what do we do? We terminate you. With cause.
00:10:49.700 If we're so lucky. If not, we give you the minimum allowed by law. Either way, best of luck to you.
00:10:58.900 Recruiters are watching. HR is watching. Everywhere. And we hate you. We hate you so much.
00:11:05.120 Oh, we hate you. How nice. And you think we can't do anything. But we can. We have the power.
00:11:11.880 So, not only is this woman quite literally drunk, she's also drunk on her own power,
00:11:16.100 or so she thought. Because she didn't warn us, she didn't tell us, to be careful what you put
00:11:19.940 on social media. And she also said that HR and recruiters will document what you're doing,
00:11:25.800 and document what you're posting, and they will fire you for cause if they want to. They will ruin
00:11:30.280 your life if they want to. Well, it turns out that this woman wasn't very careful about
00:11:35.000 what she posted on social media. It got documented, it got recorded, and it got immediately put up on
00:11:39.860 Twitter. And it went viral, of course. And even better, her former employers distanced themselves
00:11:45.640 from her on Twitter. And the regulatory board that oversees recruiters in Ontario, the Ontario
00:11:51.060 Human Rights Professional Association, immediately also distanced themselves from this woman.
00:11:55.460 So, this is what her former employer wrote on Twitter.
00:11:59.180 We are aware of the video from a former Canadian contractor about her personal views and approach
00:12:03.180 to HR, which we do not support. She has not provided services for our family-owned company
00:12:08.060 since 2019. We do not condone this behavior as it does not represent our company values.
00:12:12.740 Now, I certainly hope it wouldn't represent your company values. And I can't for the life of me
00:12:17.040 understand why she wouldn't be a part of your company now. She appears to be a perfectly
00:12:21.520 reasonable, totally normal HR person, right? And the Human Rights Professional Association
00:12:26.640 wrote on Twitter,
00:12:28.120 HRPA is aware of this video post by one of its regulated members and does not condone or endorse
00:12:33.520 in any way the statements made about HR practice therein. Further, HRPA is reviewing this matter
00:12:39.620 to determine if there has been a breach of its rules of professional conduct. Well, I'm really
00:12:43.500 sorry for this woman who appears may have just ruined her professional life because she posted
00:12:48.820 something on social media. What goes around comes around, lady. Maybe next time you should be
00:12:53.060 more careful about what you post on social media. Now, to wrap up the show for the week,
00:12:58.100 I said at the beginning we had some hardware to hand out. Of course, each week we will be giving out
00:13:03.500 the Ratio of the Week award, highlighting one tweet, one person on social media who completely missed
00:13:09.880 the mark and got absolutely destroyed for it on social media. And really, what better person to
00:13:14.880 receive the award this week than Transportation Minister Omar Al-Ghabra, the man that Ryan Whitney,
00:13:21.400 one of the new Canadian heroes, calls a goon, a total clown. It's like the Ministry of Travel or some
00:13:27.340 guy, this goon. I looked at this guy, he's an absolute clown. Omar Al-Ghabra last week, or what was
00:13:33.300 it five days ago, six days ago from this point, wrote on Twitter that wait times are coming down at
00:13:39.900 Pearson Airport. Wait times at Pearson Airport are coming down. Well, because of that, Omar was given
00:13:46.080 the ratio of 536 comments to a grand total of 82 likes. 536 comments to 82 likes, that's a pretty
00:13:53.460 hefty ratio for Mr. Al-Ghabra because, frankly, everybody knows and everyone who's been paying
00:14:00.620 attention to the news knows that Pearson Airport is a total disaster. Let's get into some of the comments
00:14:05.940 here because he gets absolutely lit up for this post, and frankly, rightly so, because you have
00:14:11.580 to be really reaching to try and make the case five days ago that wait times at Pearson Airport
00:14:17.300 were coming down. Obviously, wait times at Pearson are a complete disaster, a total embarrassment for
00:14:22.720 our country. One of the great comments on Omar Al-Ghabra's tweet here is from this account,
00:14:28.920 I am a simple accountant, but if I made a graph like this to be shared externally, I'd be fired.
00:14:32.960 Can I get a job at your ministry? And the truth is, if bureaucrats weren't so difficult to fire,
00:14:38.180 maybe this person could get a job at the Ministry of Transportation because if the Ministry of
00:14:41.760 Transportation was in the private sector, they'd have to sack the entire ministry and rehire a whole
00:14:46.820 new set of staff because of their sheer incompetence. And then this comment is actually the truth,
00:14:51.160 which is, so they get off planes faster just to wait the same duration in the terminal. And that's
00:14:56.160 the truth. This graph is talking about wait times on airplanes before you get into the airport.
00:15:01.240 The actual problem is the fact that there aren't any staff at the airport to process people coming
00:15:06.360 into the airport. And lastly, someone does the job that we all need them to do, which is to fact check
00:15:11.520 Mr. Al-Ghabra. This person writes, we need to alert the fact checkers about Omar's post and tags at
00:15:17.200 Reuters facts, which is perfect because this clearly is a load of baloney. It's a load of BS. Now we know
00:15:23.920 it's been a tough week for Omar Al-Ghabra. He's really been fielding a lot of heat for his complete failure
00:15:29.920 on the transportation file. So because of that, we want to make sure that it's not horrible for him.
00:15:34.940 We can give him some consolation prize. And that is for you, sir, the Ratio of the Week award.
00:15:40.940 Well done to you, Mr. Al-Ghabra. All right, that's going to do it for us this week on the show.
00:15:45.140 Thank you so much for watching. My name is Harrison Faulkner and you are watching Ratio.
00:15:48.920 I'll see you next time.
00:15:57.840 Thank you.
00:16:06.160 Thank you.
00:16:07.940 Thank you.
