00:00:00.000 Let's talk about some of the bigger picture issues that I've heard a lot of concerns about
00:00:04.120 from conservative members and conservative supporters, and I'd say people that are
00:00:08.480 potentially available to you as a leadership candidate seeking support in the next few
00:00:13.100 months. And one big one, which admittedly I have talked about for years, and I think it's only in
00:00:17.480 the last couple of months that it's gained a lot more traction, I think, outside of a small group
00:00:22.420 of people that have been working on it, is some of the global influences we see in a lot of
00:00:28.360 Justin Trudeau's policy. And I want to be clear, I'm not talking about conspiratorial thinking here,
00:00:32.640 I'm not talking about global cabals, but you do have, for example, the World Economic Forum,
00:00:37.100 a group that Justin Trudeau and many people in his cabinet have actually promoted and actively
00:00:41.960 participated in. We've got the Great Reset, Stakeholder Capitalism, all of these things,
00:00:47.160 and you've spoken out, I think, about some of these even on the floor of the House of Commons.
00:00:51.240 I've had people that have said that you yourself are connected to the World Economic Forum, and I
00:00:56.940 wanted to give you an opportunity to address this head on, because I'm sure you've seen it as well.
00:01:01.620 Is there a connection there? Have you ever spoken at a World Economic Forum event?
00:01:06.800 No, I have not. No, I've never been to Davos. I've never been part of the organization. And I don't
00:01:16.140 agree with its publicly stated policy objectives. My policies are different. I obviously support
00:01:25.240 small government, more freedom, and individual independence. So I just have a fundamental
00:01:33.440 disagreement with the organization's policy outlook. And that is something that you can look at my track
00:01:40.500 record. I've said that on the floor of the House of Commons. I said it in parliamentary committees. I've
00:01:46.440 said it in comments that I've made online for years. So anybody who wants to know my position on that
00:01:53.420 subject can simply check it out and look up what I've actually said, because I've been deadly consistent
00:02:00.300 on that issue.
