00:00:00.080 Freedom is something you earn every day, and that strength is something we need to reinforce.
00:00:07.040 Hi, I'm Candace Malcolm, and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.
00:00:10.320 No, Prime Minister Carney, freedom is not something you earn every day.
00:00:12.980 Freedom is something that we are born with, that we are given from God,
00:00:16.240 and not something that our government can take away.
00:00:18.340 So thank you very much for that.
00:00:20.300 All right, folks, we have a great show today.
00:00:22.460 We're going to react to the throne speech a little bit more.
00:00:25.840 We're going to show the highlights and some of the lowlights, because there was quite a bit of cringe in there.
00:00:31.480 So let's jump right into it.
00:00:32.960 First of all, King Charles kicked off the throne speech by delivering, yes, you guessed it, a land acknowledgement.
00:00:39.480 Let's play that clip.
00:00:40.840 I would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the unceded territory of the Algonquin and the Shinabeg people.
00:00:48.880 This land acknowledgement is a recognition of shared history as a nation.
00:00:57.340 While continuing to deepen my own understanding, it is my great hope that in each of your communities,
00:01:04.920 and collectively as a country, a path is found toward truth and reconciliation in both word and deed.
00:01:14.580 Yeah, we've had enough of the wokeness, okay? 1.00
00:01:17.300 We don't want the woke anymore. 1.00
00:01:19.320 King Charles, the whole idea that you would say it's unceded territory,
00:01:23.240 you're acknowledging the claim that Canada is not a legitimate country.
00:01:27.100 So to have the king come and deliver a throne speech, and right at the beginning, 0.92
00:01:30.680 in the first few words, say that Canada is illegitimate, it just makes the entire thing ridiculous. 0.96
00:01:36.260 What a spectacle.
00:01:36.920 We want people who will stand up for our country, stand up for our institutions,
00:01:40.460 and not undermine every single aspect about it.
00:01:43.020 I mean, he's the royal family, for goodness sake.
00:01:44.780 This is why I said yesterday that I like the tradition,
00:01:47.680 I like the idea of the monarchy that's serviced very well over the years,
00:01:51.200 but come on with these people. 0.99
00:01:53.520 This is a clown show. 0.94
00:01:54.800 Okay, next, King Charles said the federal government would change firearm licensing 0.66
00:01:59.560 and increase restrictions on firearm possessions while claiming to protect the rights of law-abiding gun owners.
00:02:07.320 I've heard this before.
00:02:08.120 This is just absolutely outrageous to have the king come and threaten our lifestyle,
00:02:15.340 threaten our way of life, and try to take away guns.
00:02:17.620 Let's play that clip.
00:02:18.360 To keep communities safe, the government will hire a thousand more RCMP's personnel.
00:02:24.780 It will change firearms licensing and strengthen enforcement of yellow and red flag laws.
00:02:35.160 Weapons licenses for those convicted of intimate partner violence and those subject to protection orders will be revoked.
00:02:43.880 Through the deployment of scanners, drones, and helicopters, additional personnel, and canine teams,
00:02:53.920 the government will stem the tide of illegal guns and drugs across the border.
00:03:00.100 It will take these steps while protecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners
00:03:05.960 and indigenous people's long-standing hunting traditions.
00:03:10.120 I really don't like hearing the king make partisan slogans on behalf of the liberal government,
00:03:16.200 but give me a break.
00:03:17.160 Canada has a crime problem, and the crime does not come from law-owning individuals. 0.96
00:03:22.100 So cracking down on law-abiding gun owners is ridiculous. 0.97
00:03:26.240 It is patently ridiculous nonsense, and it's just such a spectacle that the king is now involved in this nonsense. 0.95
00:03:33.400 And talking about more liberal sloganeering, here is King Charles defending the CBC. 0.93
00:03:39.500 The government is resolute in its determination to protect those institutions
00:03:45.560 that highlight and promote that identity around the world, such as CBC Radio-Canada. 0.92
00:03:54.600 Yeah, no, don't want it, don't need it, absolutely ridiculous.
00:03:59.600 Okay, we have Pierre Polyev, leader of the Conservative Party, coming in and correctly saying 0.72
00:04:04.380 that the throne speech was just full of slogans and lacked solutions.
00:04:09.440 So here is Pierre Polyev at a press conference saying that the throne speech had no plan
00:04:15.000 to address the government's morbidly obese spending anti-energy laws or justice reform system.
00:04:20.280 Let's play that clip.
00:04:20.820 We did see a lot of the right slogans and political talking points, but no clear plans to get it done.
00:04:29.720 One slogan dealt with controlling government spending, but there were no specific savings
00:04:33.960 to roll back the morbidly obese liberal government's costs.
00:04:39.460 We saw promises about getting things built, but no mention of oil and gas or pipelines.
00:04:45.420 Pipelines are, of course, the thing we most need to build.
00:04:47.420 Didn't get one mention, nor did they mention getting rid of the anti-energy laws that have
00:04:52.260 kept our resources in the ground.
00:04:54.160 They mentioned crime, but refused to say that they would repeal the liberal catch-and-release
00:05:00.360 bail law, C-75, or the house arrest law.
00:05:03.800 Laws that have allowed rampant chaos and crime to overtake our once-tranquil streets.
00:05:10.500 Sorry, I just have to say it.
00:05:12.540 Pierre Polyev and Melissa Lantzman have the same hairstyle.
00:05:15.380 It looks kind of funny with them standing side by side.
00:05:17.640 Okay, next.
00:05:18.100 Pierre Polyev said that he agreed with some of the messaging behind the throne speech,
00:05:21.640 of course, because recall that Mark Carney stole half of the conservative platform in his platform.
00:05:27.420 But Polyev said that only the conservatives have a plan to deliver on that vision, promising
00:05:31.860 to table comprehensive amendments that include specific proposals on energy, crime and spending.
00:05:36.820 Let's play that clip.
00:05:37.380 There are some messages we want to see as planned.
00:05:40.760 So we're going to put forward what we consider to be a constructive amendment that will add
00:05:45.180 very specific plans.
00:05:46.720 So, for example, the government says they want to get projects built.
00:05:49.880 Great.
00:05:50.620 We've got just the plan to do it.
00:05:52.320 Repeal C-69, the anti-development law.
00:05:54.600 Repeal the energy cap, the offshore shipping ban, the electric vehicle mandate.
00:06:00.580 And unlock the incredible investment that could bring jobs and self-sufficiency to Canada.
00:06:07.380 They say they want to reverse course on crime.
00:06:10.120 Well, we've got the plan for that, too.
00:06:11.600 We will put forward an amendment that says that they should repeal C-75, the catch and
00:06:16.260 release bail law.
00:06:17.720 They say they want to get their spending back kind of hilariously under control after decades
00:06:26.000 of overspending.
00:06:27.040 Well, we've got plans for that, too.
00:06:29.240 So our amendment will put real plans in place rather than slogans and talking points.
00:06:34.120 There we go.
00:06:35.060 Next, we had Alberta Premier Danielle Smith on X coming out with this response to the
00:06:39.360 throne speech.
00:06:40.280 She writes,
00:06:40.840 Albertans need to see the federal government reset its relationship with Alberta, starting
00:06:44.240 with a clear commitment to work with Alberta to build an oil pipeline to the northwest B.C.
00:06:48.780 coast, as well as repealing the emissions cap Bill C-69, the tanker ban and the net zero
00:06:54.340 electricity regulations.
00:06:55.800 Well, it's nice to hear the prime minister's commitment to build projects of national significance
00:06:59.240 and position Canada as a conventional energy superpower.
00:07:03.020 There's sadly no mention in the throne speech of any substantive actions or policy repeals
00:07:07.340 to address the priorities that I have outlined to the prime minister on behalf of Albertans.
00:07:11.700 I look forward to hearing from the prime minister about these specific action items, times of
00:07:15.900 the essence, as Albertans need to see meaningful action within weeks, not months.
00:07:20.960 Absolutely.
00:07:21.480 OK, next, we have bloc leader Yves-Francois Blanchet saying that the speech was just an
00:07:27.600 act of centralization and that Mark Carney sees himself as the CEO of Canada.
00:07:32.160 Let's play that clip.
00:07:33.140 It is the most important initiative by a federal government towards centralization that I have
00:07:41.340 seen or heard of.
00:07:43.680 I do not believe it is ill intended.
00:07:46.040 I believe that Mr. Carney sees himself culturally as the CEO of Canada and he will make decisions
00:07:54.180 and he will have his decisions being implemented by everybody.
00:07:58.960 And he seems to see that Quebec and provinces are merely regional offices.
00:08:05.520 Regional offices.
00:08:06.460 I like that one.
00:08:07.100 I've also heard that Mark Carney is the bankruptcy trustee of Canada and he is here to sell us
00:08:11.620 for scraps.
00:08:12.780 Next, Blanchet said that at the beginning of the campaign, the threat was Donald Trump.
00:08:17.840 And during the speech, there was just no mention of Trump that he just disappeared.
00:08:22.040 Let's play that clip.
00:08:22.980 The issue at the beginning of the campaign was the threat from Donald Trump.
00:08:28.940 And in the speech, there's no such thing.
00:08:32.560 It just vanished, disappeared.
00:08:35.760 Well, of course it did, because it was just a ploy to win the election.
00:08:38.660 I actually agree with the idea to not have references to President Trump in our throne
00:08:42.800 speech.
00:08:43.220 The throne speech is supposed to be about Canada and the governing agenda, and there's no reason
00:08:46.980 to talk about the Americans in our own throne speech.
00:08:50.420 Well, President Trump renewed his offer to Canada to become the 51st state.
00:08:56.300 This is what President Trump had to say on Truth Social on Tuesday.
00:08:59.760 He writes, I told Canada, which very much wants to be part of our fabulous Golden Dune system,
00:09:04.640 that it will cost $61 billion if they remain a separate but unequal nation, but will cost
00:09:12.140 $0 if they become our cherished 51st state.
00:09:15.660 They are considering the offer.
00:09:17.680 I promise you they're not considering the offer.
00:09:21.320 Canada is not considering that.
00:09:23.180 But super interesting.
00:09:24.040 I mean, if it's going to cost $61 billion, I mean, that would pretty much get Canada
00:09:28.280 across the line of spending 2% of our GDP on defence, which is what we're supposed to
00:09:32.640 do.
00:09:32.800 But it's a heck of a lot of money to be part of something that may or may not be used
00:09:37.680 ever.
00:09:38.480 So in response, CTV had this to say, Canada is a sovereign nation, according to PMO.
00:09:43.760 PMO responds to Trump's Golden Dune offer in a statement to CTV News.
00:09:47.940 Prime Minister's office wrote, the prime minister has been very clear at every opportunity,
00:09:51.280 including in his conversations with President Trump, that Canada is an independent, sovereign
00:09:55.780 nation and will remain one.
00:09:58.740 You're almost starting to think whether Trump and Carney are like coordinating this.
00:10:02.220 Like anytime Carney needs a bump in the polls or like a positive headline, he just gets
00:10:06.680 Trump to tweet something like this and then Carney gets to respond and be Captain Canada.
00:10:11.100 Well, in an interview on our favourite show, CBC, with David Cochran, Cochran asked if he
00:10:17.720 still thinks President Trump wants to break us so that he can own us and just watch Carney's
00:10:24.180 response.
00:10:25.380 The line you said with some frequency during the election was he wants to break us so he
00:10:29.740 can own us.
00:10:30.620 Do you still believe that's true?
00:10:31.920 I think he's I think the president, I won't look into his soul, but the president is recognising
00:10:37.440 as others are just how strong and free Canada is.
00:10:41.040 And so if you look at the speech from the throne today, as you as you did, this is about
00:10:46.260 investing in Canada.
00:10:47.600 This is about building Canada, about making one Canadian economy out of 13.
00:10:51.660 It's about nation building projects.
00:10:53.720 All of the each of those and those together give us much, much more than could ever be
00:10:58.280 taken away by trade action.
00:10:59.840 Yeah.
00:11:00.120 So he's out there saying that Canada is really, really strong and the numbers are pointing
00:11:04.680 a totally different direction.
00:11:06.700 I want to show you this story from the Toronto Sun, Liberals allowing 1 million foreign students
00:11:12.900 were costly to Canadians.
00:11:15.360 So Bank of Canada research shows that the federal Liberals' decision to allow 1 million foreign
00:11:19.700 students into the country had a significant impact in some employment sectors and cost Canadians
00:11:25.000 jobs and wages.
00:11:25.980 The study confirmed a 2022 Employment Department report that foreign labour led to Canadian workers
00:11:31.560 being replaced per Blacklock's reporter.
00:11:34.320 They accounted for a larger share of workers in low skilled occupations, replacing Canadian
00:11:39.360 born workers who moved out of these jobs said the report.
00:11:43.340 This is unbelievable.
00:11:44.280 The idea that they come to Canada as students, right? 0.96
00:11:46.840 The whole idea of coming as a student means that you're supposed to be in school.
00:11:50.200 So why do they even have a visa to work?
00:11:51.940 Let me tell you.
00:11:52.480 I did an exchange program when I was in university where I went to Australia.
00:11:56.200 And when I was in Australia, my visa did not allow me to work.
00:11:58.780 I could not get a job on campus.
00:12:00.320 I couldn't work at a coffee shop because my visa was for me to go to school and be a
00:12:04.200 student.
00:12:04.460 And that was the whole idea.
00:12:05.740 So the idea that Canadian, that people can come to Canada, pretend to go to school, some
00:12:10.320 of them don't even go to real schools, and then they can go in and take the low wage jobs
00:12:14.220 of Canadians. 0.98
00:12:15.120 It's so absurdly ridiculous. 0.91
00:12:17.220 And yet this government has no plan to actually change a course on this. 0.87
00:12:21.240 Okay.
00:12:21.380 And more from this Bank of Canada report.
00:12:23.820 This is what the Toronto Sun and Blacklock's report are based on.
00:12:27.540 So you can see just the growth in our population.
00:12:30.760 Look at this chart.
00:12:31.760 Canada is the highest growth country out of the G7 here.
00:12:36.180 But you can see how almost all of our population growth is due to immigration.
00:12:41.620 Nothing to do with our actual birth rate, which is alarmingly low.
00:12:45.760 Next, the contribution to annual growth.
00:12:47.740 I mean, just look at this.
00:12:48.960 Look at the non-permanent residents that Canada admitted since COVID under Justin Trudeau.
00:12:53.660 It is so unbelievable that we would allow this many people to just come to our country 1.00
00:12:57.960 without any path to becoming Canadian, without any obligation to respect our laws and our
00:13:02.980 customs, and just, you know, they come and go.
00:13:05.840 They come as students.
00:13:06.700 They actually take jobs.
00:13:07.860 It's really quite something how immigration has had this effect on Canada.
00:13:12.840 Further to Mark Carney's idea that Canada is strong, Hudson Bay, the iconic Canadian
00:13:17.780 company, is the latest and last casualty of the Trudeau government, the Liberal government,
00:13:23.660 Hudson Bay is terminating 8,000 employees, firing them, and closing all of its stores.
00:13:29.220 Ezra Levan on X aptly wrote,
00:13:31.040 The Hudson Bay has been around since 1670.
00:13:34.000 It survived the British, American, and French revolutions, Napoleon, two world wars, the
00:13:37.920 Great Depression, the Great Recession, and 9-11.
00:13:39.720 But it could not survive the Trudeau-Carney Liberal government.
00:13:43.940 How sad.
00:13:45.000 Very, very sad.
00:13:45.940 And apparently, part of the Hudson Bay company is being bought out by a Chinese investor.
00:13:52.580 How perfectly metaphoric of our country.
00:13:56.660 I want to continue on the topic of Rebel News.
00:13:59.620 So Rebel News' reporter, Alexa Levoire, bumped into a cabinet minister, former cabinet minister,
00:14:05.460 Ahmed Hussein, who just absolutely refused to even raise her, answer her questions, address
00:14:12.180 her concerns, and he just finally says, you're not a journalist, stop pretending to be one.
00:14:16.660 Okay, folks, the rebel is like the mirror image of the CBC.
00:14:20.060 So just imagine for a second that this was a CBC reporter and this was how Pierre Polyev
00:14:24.240 or one of the conservative MPs or shadow ministers dealt with the CBC.
00:14:28.840 It would be like a national outrage, right?
00:14:30.900 But these Liberal cabinet ministers, these Liberal MPs, just feel such disdain towards Canadians
00:14:36.480 and non-legacy media reporters, it's really quite something to see.
00:14:41.240 Let's play that clip.
00:14:42.040 Any word, mister, about the Israeli government warning?
00:14:45.260 I don't talk to you about you.
00:14:46.920 You're not a real journalist.
00:14:48.040 It's not real news.
00:14:48.900 Leave us alone.
00:14:49.460 It's not real news.
00:14:50.360 I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:14:52.200 Do you believe that the public servant should be accountable?
00:14:56.180 Leave me alone.
00:14:57.120 Do you believe on the freedom of press?
00:15:01.540 Do you believe on freedom of the press?
00:15:02.940 You're not a real journalist.
00:15:04.240 Stop pretending to be one.
00:15:05.820 I would love to see a conservative say that to someone from the CBC.
00:15:09.640 Just so rude.
00:15:10.500 So much disdain. 0.99
00:15:11.280 Just like, get away from me, you pesky little peasant. 1.00
00:15:14.260 You're not a real journalist. 0.99
00:15:15.560 Go away.
00:15:16.220 Leave us alone.
00:15:17.240 Unbelievably rude.
00:15:18.020 Just bad manners all around.
00:15:19.760 And, you know, you could just say no comment.
00:15:21.940 You could just ignore her.
00:15:23.020 Or you could actually engage and do what politicians are supposed to be with the press, which is
00:15:27.080 be held accountable and answer some questions.
00:15:28.920 Instead, just total arrogance.
00:15:31.600 All right, and we're going to end the show on what I think is a bit of a positive note.
00:15:34.640 I've told you before that I love the Make America Healthy Again movement, the Maha movement.
00:15:39.260 Well, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., or RFKJ, he was sort of the leader of the movement.
00:15:43.400 And then he merged together with President Trump, endorsed him.
00:15:46.200 So it was Maha and MAGA.
00:15:47.580 And here we have, and then he was appointed to the Health and Human Services as the secretary.
00:15:53.060 Well, today he had a big announcement.
00:15:55.040 He announced that today the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women
00:15:59.540 has been removed from the CDC-recommended immunization schedule.
00:16:03.800 Bottom line, it's common sense and good science.
00:16:05.660 We are now one step closer to realizing POTUS's promise to make America healthy again.
00:16:09.960 And there he is with NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya.
00:16:12.880 I love that guy.
00:16:13.760 And FDA Commissioner Marty Makari.
00:16:16.380 This is excellent.
00:16:17.420 I'm sorry.
00:16:17.960 But one of the things that just drives me absolutely crazy in Canada is that they still
00:16:21.420 recommend this thing to children, right?
00:16:23.140 Even during COVID, we know that children weren't the ones that were getting very sick and getting
00:16:27.040 very ill from COVID.
00:16:28.460 So the whole idea that they had to have this, it never made any sense.
00:16:32.180 And can I just say that for me as a mom, it made me doubt the entire immunization schedule.
00:16:37.600 The fact that that was in there, it just didn't seem right to me from everything that I read,
00:16:41.520 everything that I understood about the COVID illness itself, plus the vaccine.
00:16:46.260 So some common sense, a step in the right direction.
00:16:48.940 I don't really have a lot of hope that Canada will follow suit, but you never know.
00:16:53.300 And I think that this is very good for the world.
00:16:55.960 Let's make it all healthy again.
00:16:56.860 Time for Canada to have a make Canada healthy again.
00:16:59.640 Move it.
