00:00:00.000 Welcome everyone to Ratioed. My name is Harrison Faulkner and tomorrow is Dominion Day,
00:00:11.440 Canada Day. A day in which we're all supposed to hold our heads in shame,
00:00:15.100 repent for our sins, wear orange, and lower Canadian flags.
00:00:18.620 Lying dog-faced pony soldier. You said you were, but now you gotta be honest. I'm gonna be honest
00:00:23.420 with you. Now that's what we would do if the radicals that hate our country and want to see
00:00:27.020 as fail had their way. Now I for one am not prepared to give them a single inch of victory
00:00:31.860 tomorrow and for that matter any day. Now I am quite looking forward to spending the day tomorrow
00:00:36.340 with friends, catching up around a barbecue, and just taking in what a great country this is despite
00:00:41.320 what our prime minister and despite what our leaders want to convince us. Now on the show
00:00:45.440 today we will be reacting to some of the very worst hashtag cancel Canada Day TikToks. Yes those are a
00:00:51.440 thing and they are really quite bad. Next we will be looking at what the Ottawa police have in store
00:00:56.220 for all of you racists and misogynists out there looking to celebrate Canada Day in our nation's
00:01:01.380 capital. And finally we will be handing out the Eurasio of the Week award to a CBC journalist
00:01:05.640 who just couldn't help herself but dip her hands into the U.S. culture cookie jar. Let's get into it.
00:01:11.840 Now unless you were living under a rock last year, Canada bashing radical activists wanted to
00:01:17.000 convince all of us that because of discoveries of unmarked graves, so-called discoveries, we'll get
00:01:23.020 into that later, because of those discoveries we had to cancel Canada Day. We were unable to celebrate
00:01:28.040 this great country and we must all repent for the sins of generations past, sins that none of us
00:01:34.200 committed. Now that is what the left wanted of last year and I think they got the message from most of
00:01:40.560 us that we weren't interested in playing that game. Now if you go on social media you will find a lot of
00:01:44.660 quick little hashtag messages, people trying to push the message to cancel Canada Day for us to all feel
00:01:50.540 bad about this wonderful country. You'll see a lot of hashtag cancel Canada Day, you'll see a lot of
00:01:55.020 hashtag no pride in genocide, and one of my favorites, the one that cracks me up every time I see it,
00:02:01.340 is hashtag cancel KKK Canada Day. Now that one really gets me because as we all know we have a real
00:02:08.000 problem in this country of those pesky KKK members roaming our Canadian streets. Now this time of year
00:02:13.560 Canadians have become accustomed to bad takes from radicals and low IQ activists. Now that's become
00:02:21.760 sort of the standard operating procedure for most Canadians. We just have to endure these horrible
00:02:26.460 takes and Canada bashing moments just for a few days and then we all move on and we come back to
00:02:31.400 our senses that we're living in frankly the best country in the world. Okay so we start with this
00:02:35.420 TikTok here from an account called Tia Mishik.
00:02:38.660 Hey, come celebrate Canada Day with us. Seems reasonable. Oh, a little ray of sunshine there.
00:02:58.500 So they're really trying to play with their emotions there, right? They're using that sad emotional music
00:03:03.560 and overlaying photos of the residential school system and showing that woman crying. Now, of course,
00:03:08.640 at the very end they ask, what is there to celebrate? And I for one can think of thousands
00:03:14.100 of reasons to celebrate this country. But what you're going to see today, tomorrow, and for several
00:03:18.080 weeks in the future are people constantly looking for reasons to hate this country. Constantly neglecting
00:03:24.500 what this country does for the rest of the world and for its own citizens. The fact that thousands of
00:03:29.720 people would give an arm and a leg to come to this country to raise their family in this country.
00:03:34.380 And the fact that our country has shed blood for the world's freedoms. All right, so this
00:03:39.840 next TikTok comes from a user named Cannibal Chad. Hey everybody, Canada Day is coming. You know what
00:03:48.280 that means. Oh, look at that shirt. He's got a nice little satanic Church of Satan shirt going on.
00:03:55.260 Some nice satanic symbolism. Very nice. Wow, how deep. How powerful. Now, if I were an activist and I
00:04:13.920 were looking for spokesmen for my cause, I mean, this is the kind of person that I would want
00:04:18.520 representing my movement. I mean, what more could you ask for? You've got the nose ring,
00:04:23.000 you've got the long hair, you've got the satanic sweater. That's always a good sign.
00:04:28.340 And you've got the good username of Cannibal Chad official. When I'm thinking of important moments
00:04:34.360 in civil rights history, in activism, social justice, I can think of Martin Luther King's speech.
00:04:41.900 And I can also think of Cannibal Chad's important TikTok video to tell us that every child matters
00:04:47.820 and to rip off his satanic shirt, to reveal underneath it, what's really underneath that
00:04:52.940 sweater of his is the every child matters orange shirt. Perfect activism, guys. Awesome stuff.
00:04:58.300 All right, let's get into our third cancel Canada Day TikTok video reaction. This one comes from
00:05:03.520 Bodine, two young men. That's the name of this account.
00:05:07.160 10,028 in brackets and counting unmarked graves found at residential schools across the country
00:05:21.940 and you're still going to celebrate Canada Day? Well, first off, yes, I am going to still celebrate
00:05:26.340 Canada Day. Thank you for asking. And secondly, 10,000 unmarked graves discovered and counting?
00:05:32.720 No, no, that's not accurate, Mr. Bodine, two young men. Now, those numbers last summer were
00:05:38.960 announced after ground penetrating radar surveyed the grounds of former residential schools. Ground
00:05:45.040 penetrating radar results look like this. When you get ground penetrating radar, you don't get
00:05:49.640 anything confirmed. You simply get disturbances in the soil, which could be anything. And many
00:05:54.880 communities actually said that these were community burial sites, former graveyards marked with wooden
00:06:00.500 crosses that have over time degraded. Now, when you go out and say 10,000 unmarked graves were found
00:06:06.860 in Canada, that's a lie. You can't just say that and then use that as a reason to then cancel Canada
00:06:12.740 Day, to bash this country. Come with the facts. We don't need that seasonal allyship anyways.
00:06:21.220 July 1st, we're orange. I love this with the radicals. They don't ever see the irony in what
00:06:26.380 they're pushing forward. He says, we don't need your seasonal allyship. So on July 1st,
00:06:31.620 we're orange. Wouldn't that be seasonal allyship in a way? Why don't, if you don't want seasonal
00:06:36.520 allyship, why don't you just say we're orange every day? Let's get into this next one. This
00:06:39.720 comes from an account called Shinanova. Now, this woman has over 4 million followers on TikTok. That's
00:06:44.920 quite a sizable number. And let's see what she has to say. The number have gone from 250 to over 10,000.
00:06:50.540 No, they haven't. That's not a reality. And also, why don't they just say the words? Go on,
00:06:56.800 say it. Don't just mime it. Is it a weird trend on TikTok that they kind of mime the words instead
00:07:03.060 of saying them? Say something, goddammit. You're on television. You're live to the whole world.
00:07:09.280 And she goes, you're still talking about that?
00:07:10.820 Yes. Wear orange. Cancel Canada Day. How brave. So you've got that emotional music in the
00:07:23.140 background and you have her miming those words, really tugging at the heartstrings to tell us
00:07:27.240 to cancel Canada Day. Well, sorry, Shinanova. That's not going to happen this year. All right.
00:07:31.160 And the last one, here we go. Last year, Canada Day was canceled after the discovery of 215 unmarked
00:07:38.440 graves at an old residential school site in BC. This year, Canada Day celebrations seem to be
00:07:46.020 proceeding as normal. Oh no, we're celebrating our country's founding. People seem to believe
00:07:51.840 that residential schools are a thing of the far distance past. Yet my mother here, who isn't even
00:07:58.680 50, is a survivor herself. Second generation. My parents went and I went. Hence the reason we're
00:08:06.860 wearing orange. To celebrate Canada Day is to celebrate genocide. All right. So it started off
00:08:13.480 fine. It started off with someone telling their story about residential schools and their mother
00:08:18.780 who went to residential schools. But then at the end, he says, to celebrate Canada Day is to celebrate
00:08:24.060 genocide. And you know what? When you say that, you lose all of my respect. Canada is not genocidal.
00:08:30.560 To say that is inaccurate. To say that is Canada bashing. When I think of celebrating Canada Day,
00:08:35.480 one of the things that comes to my mind are the men that fought and died to defeat those
00:08:40.160 committing acts of genocide. To defeat the Nazis in Germany. That's what I think when I think of
00:08:45.500 celebrating Canada Day. To tell me that celebrating Canada Day is to celebrate genocide is utterly
00:08:49.800 ridiculous. All right. So moving on to the next story. The Ottawa citizen this week wrote an article
00:08:54.280 quoting the Ottawa police chief, Steve Bell, who many of you will be familiar with from the Ottawa
00:08:59.480 protest in February. He is now telling all of you who are planning to come to Ottawa to celebrate
00:09:04.900 Canada Day to come to our national capital and show your national pride that the Ottawa police
00:09:09.860 will not tolerate racist, homophobic, misogynistic signs or speech at public Canada Day events.
00:09:16.720 So that's right. The Ottawa police are not going to be tolerating homophobic or misogynistic or racist
00:09:23.160 signs or speech. Now, not only that, the Ottawa police make it clear that not only are they not going to
00:09:29.700 tolerate signs and speech that is considered by them to be racist, misogynistic or homophobic,
00:09:35.620 they're not even going to allow you to put forward racist, misogynistic or homophobic gestures,
00:09:42.300 whatever that means. Now, of course, the Ottawa citizen doesn't define what those could mean,
00:09:46.920 what those gestures could mean. It really just means what they assume to be racist, misogynistic
00:09:51.880 or homophobic. So that's right, guys. The Ottawa police are going to be policing your gestures
00:09:57.500 and what you're saying in the streets on Canada Day. How Canadian, how free speech of the Ottawa
00:10:03.900 police. Where are the armed men who come in to take the protesters away? Where are they? This kind of
00:10:08.620 behavior is never tolerating in Barakwa. You shout like that, they put you in jail right away. No trial,
00:10:16.220 no nothing. I hope none of you, however, were expecting the Ottawa police to do any better given the
00:10:20.900 track record they've set for themselves this year. So what even is a misogynistic gesture? What is that,
00:10:25.700 like man spreading? So maybe if you're on like Wellington Street, you're sitting on a bench and
00:10:29.400 you're taking up a bit too much space, you're going to get thrown in the sin bin for a little
00:10:32.360 man spreading? Come on now. Someone wrote, does a Canada flag count? I mean, which is perfect because
00:10:37.680 as we all remember from February, if you're flying the Canada flag, you must be a racist. If you're
00:10:44.460 flying the Canada flag, you must be some horrible redneck patriot, right? That's what
00:10:50.860 they want. That's what they want you to believe. They want to demonize the Canadian flag. And we've
00:10:55.120 heard that time and time again. Now this one really cracked me up. Someone writes, just be naked and
00:10:59.620 carry a Ukraine flag. That should be fine. So yes, the Ottawa police will crack down on your
00:11:04.180 misogynistic gestures on Canada today, but they have no problem letting naked men walk around
00:11:09.220 downtown streets in front of children. No problem at all with that. And even better, if you throw a
00:11:12.840 Ukrainian flag on, you'll be even better. You'll be even more safe. Just, you better not be waving a
00:11:18.540 Canadian flag. You better not drive a truck either. Then you'll really get in trouble.
00:11:22.520 Now Ezra Levant of Rebel News quote tweeted the article and wrote, being a racist or homophobic
00:11:27.360 or misogynistic is not nice, but it is not a crime. Exactly. It's not criminal. So what are the
00:11:33.220 police doing policing that? He goes on to write, this out of control police chief wipes his jackboots
00:11:38.400 on our charter of rights. The rank and file cops see it and know that their brutality isn't just okay,
00:11:43.560 it is expected of them. Now we've all seen the footage from Ottawa. We all know what the Ottawa
00:11:47.740 police are capable of doing, but this is going to be very interesting to see just how far the
00:11:52.300 Ottawa police are willing to take this policing of your misogynistic gestures. Now something tells
00:11:57.020 me if you were waving a hammer and sickle flag and telling everyone that Canada is genocidal,
00:12:01.440 the police are going to let you be just fine. You just better not be waving a Canadian flag in a
00:12:05.500 truck. Just bow down to our prime minister, be a good little citizen, and keep your mouth shut.
00:12:10.600 As long as you do that, then the police will let you be. Seems totally fine, doesn't it?
00:12:14.620 All right, everyone. So as always, we wrap up the show with the ratio of the week. The show is called
00:12:20.240 ratioed and still I see some of you in the comments saying you don't understand the name. You don't
00:12:25.080 understand ratioed. Ratioed is basically just when a tweet that gets put out on social media
00:12:29.700 gets way more comments than likes. So when it gets way more comments than likes, that's a bad like to
00:12:35.420 comment ratio, obviously. And that's the one and only telltale sign that you have utterly failed on
00:12:40.460 Twitter. Now, this week, we give the award to Toronto Star journalist and CBC television
00:12:46.480 commentator Althea Raj. Now, if you know anything about Althea Raj, you wouldn't need me to tell
00:12:51.160 you that you write for the Toronto Star and the CBC. That becomes quite clear whenever she speaks.
00:12:55.580 Now, last week, the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and handed back states the
00:12:59.420 ability to legislate abortion themselves. Now, of course, leftists in Canada and journalists in our
00:13:04.560 country all wanted to jump on the bandwagon and voice their displeasure with the United States
00:13:08.380 and their frustration over the U.S. Supreme Court, even though it literally means nothing
00:13:12.260 for any of us in Canada. Althea Raj, the CBC and Toronto Star journalist, was very disappointed that
00:13:18.240 Pierre Pauly of Norman Babber at the time didn't comment on the Roe v. Wade decision. Now, why would
00:13:23.620 Pierre Pauly have comment on the U.S. Supreme Court's decision? No matter what he says, he will offend
00:13:29.300 people he is trying to win over for their support. And it's not even a Canadian issue. Canadians have no
00:13:34.620 business engaging in the United States Supreme Court decisions if you're running to represent
00:13:38.860 Canadians. So, Althea Raj wrote on Twitter, still no tweet or retweet from at Pierre Pauly of our
00:13:44.120 Roman Babber. Two self-described pro-choice MPs, many of their supporters, though, appear to hold
00:13:49.980 pro-life views. Oh, how dare they? How dare they hold pro-life views on yesterday's monumental Roe v. Wade
00:13:56.620 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court. So, because of that horrible take, Althea Raj was handed a ratio
00:14:01.940 on Twitter. It's a slim ratio, but nonetheless, a ratio is a ratio. A proof is a proof, and when you
00:14:07.780 have a good proof is because it's proof. And we will find it on the show. Althea Raj was given almost
00:14:12.380 2,000 comments, 1,944 comments, to a grand total of 1,714 likes. So, it's a slim ratio, but she was
00:14:22.020 handed a ratio nonetheless. So, some of the comments are pretty great. This one was obviously the best.
00:14:26.740 Just here to notify you that you are currently getting ratioed. I just love this meme. It's
00:14:31.860 perfect for this show. Let's make this the award for getting ratioed and getting the Ratio of the
00:14:36.880 Week award. If you get the Ratio of the Week award, you're getting this meme slapped on you.
00:14:40.480 Next, we have this comment here. Canadian politicians have no business commenting on the decisions of
00:14:44.980 independent democratic institutions of foreign countries. Exactly. Exactly. It's none of our business.
00:14:51.720 Even more so when they have absolutely nothing to do with Canada. And to wrap it up, this one is
00:14:57.460 perfect. Right on time with the petty takes. The 51st state, according to Althea. Get those likes
00:15:02.720 and retweets. Well, she tried, but she couldn't defeat the Ratio this week, and she is taking home
00:15:07.540 the award on behalf of all of the horrible takes on the Roe v. Wade decision. That's going to wrap it
00:15:11.640 up for us this week. Have a great Dominion Day. Celebrate this country. The greatest country on
00:15:17.780 earth. The best country on earth. Never let anyone tell you you can't celebrate this country,
00:15:22.420 especially the radical leftists. Now, there's nothing that will upset our Prime Minister more
00:15:26.220 than seeing proud Canadians waving our flag, smiling ear to ear, having a great day. Take
00:15:31.180 care, everyone. Have a great Canada Day, and have a great week. My name is Harrison Faulkner,
00:15:35.480 and this is Ratio.
