00:00:00.000So we reported this over at Juno News, that the Conservatives demand that Mark Kearney reveal his Brookfield stock options.
00:00:07.840And so one of the things that we learned is that he got a multimillion dollar stock option deal.
00:00:12.740So, Desmond, even if he puts his money into a blind trust, he knows that he has a lot of money in Brookfield.
00:00:20.600And there was a report that just came out as we were coming on air that shows that while he was chair of Brookfield, the company's assets increased by like 20 percent or something like that.
00:00:30.760Whereas in Canada, they actually decreased.
00:00:34.800Obviously, they moved their headquarters out of Canada, even though it's a Canadian company.
00:00:38.020It's now majority of its assets are in the U.S. and American companies, which goes to show like even a Canadian asset management company doesn't want to invest in Canada because of these liberal policies.
00:00:47.500But I think that this is a bigger issue. I know it's a bit complicated and maybe it's not, you know, really easy for Canadians to understand. But the more you kind of look into his finances and the way it's structured and this wine trust and his refusal on him saying, what possible conflicts could I have? And now coming out, admitting that he could have conflicts and that he's going to allow the ethics commissioner to create a screen.
00:01:10.160this was reported in the national post you can see there carney admits to potential conflicts
00:01:13.760of interest with brookfield after saying like 24 hours earlier like what possible conflict
00:01:18.960um could i have in fading outrage i you know i think that that it is shown that there is a
00:01:24.160problem here that even the media can't ignore what do you think i i think the fact that you
00:01:28.880have legacy media commenting on it is a very big signal that obviously there is something too big
00:01:34.880to ignore and you know conflicts of interest they arise all the time with various politicians that's
00:01:40.480it's not like this is anything new the amount of money that he has it's not like that is anything
00:01:45.360new you know it doesn't really at the end of the day it's annoying to me because obviously
00:01:50.320you're being touted as an outsider who is i've been around the world i know what to do i know
00:01:55.520what canadians want i'm like you haven't even lived here in 10 years up until january when you
00:01:59.760a lot of property um but okay um like i just think overall you know he's so unbelievably
00:02:05.440unrelatable and it's bizarre the shielding that's happening and the fact that finally you have some
00:02:11.600people saying that something here isn't right and we're going to start calling you out on it
00:02:16.240to have him react in such a way is just bizarre to me um and also you know more than that it's
00:02:22.960been shocking to see the left eat itself alive right now and the amount of people who have been
00:02:29.040coming after Rosemary Barton for her follow-up question. Oh, she was so disrespectful. How is
00:02:34.960she so disrespectful for saying what she said? That sounds like good journalism, actually. Thank
00:02:41.300goodness. Maybe we can get back to more of that because that's how it should be. You're supposed
00:02:44.680to press and get answers rather than shield people.
