00:00:00.000 While a Harper-era cabinet minister has been sounding the alarm about the threat posed by
00:00:10.880 out-of-control immigration in Canada, Stockwell Day held multiple ministerial posts during his
00:00:17.680 years in the Harper government, including that of public safety minister and international trade
00:00:22.940 minister. Here he is warning about the recent chaotic invasion of Spain and the implications
00:00:29.020 of that for Canada. What's happening in Spain with their invasion, they brought upon themselves
00:00:35.000 and the same thing could happen to Canada. People need to get a grip and send the signal out, send
00:00:41.700 it to our elected people. Canada is not wide open. This invasion that is happening in Spain is
00:00:48.520 something that that country brought upon themselves, their leadership, their prime minister,
00:00:53.680 signal to the world that they don't care if they get invaded if there's mass over immigration
00:01:00.480 open immigration that they're never going to send back people who are there illegally
00:01:05.440 when a country sends a signal that they don't care if they get invaded by massive immigration
00:01:12.200 without anybody being checked without anybody being deported if they're criminals when you
00:01:17.160 send that signal your country is on the way to disaster when you send a signal that anybody
00:01:23.080 can come in, even when their values clash with yours, even when they don't support the values
00:01:28.660 that made Canada strong, you send that signal that people are welcome to come swarming in
00:01:34.320 on that basis, then Canada also will be doomed. Day has also recently posted videos about
00:01:40.780 transgenderism and the federal government's refusal to deport a serial rapist from Eritrea.
00:01:47.660 Let's listen.
00:01:48.880 So Prime Minister Carney has specifically approved
00:01:51.720 of keeping a serial, violent, sexual assault rapist in the country.
00:01:58.760 He said, keep him here. Don't send him out.
00:02:01.380 Butler emphasized his point by calling Johans
00:02:03.600 a convicted, violent, sexual offender.
00:02:05.860 Send him back to Eritrea where he came from.
00:02:09.240 He's not a citizen.
00:02:10.220 He doesn't have and shouldn't have protected status.
00:02:13.940 And the Minister of Education of the Liberal government
00:02:16.600 said no we're not going to send him back we don't care if he's raped people we don't care if he tried
00:02:22.320 to burn down a church we don't care if he's not even a citizen our guest today is former cabinet
00:02:27.200 minister and party leader stockwell day welcome sir great to be with you you've been out of
00:02:33.800 politics since 2011 i believe but uh since then you've been particularly just lately i guess you've
00:02:42.240 been more vocal about the state of the country and the world in general.
00:02:46.020 What made you want to go public in the way that you have with the videos,
00:02:49.340 which we've played a couple of them, but, uh, why now?
00:02:54.960 Well, actually, as we say in politics, you, it's like the mafia,
00:02:58.800 you never really get out.
00:03:00.760 And, uh, even though I was no longer, I, I decided not to run again in 2011.
00:03:05.680 I'd stayed involved.
00:03:07.400 Um, of course I run my own business, but I stay involved on campaigns
00:03:12.080 and candidate training and things like that, and I post things regularly.
00:03:19.360 I can say, even starting a podcast just a few months ago at stockwellday.com,
00:03:26.480 there I shamelessly advertised it. You get interesting reactions from one thing to another,
00:03:33.280 but I can tell you this one on immigration really took off. I mean, I know it's a hotspot,
00:03:39.440 but one day we hit 500,000 views, and those aren't just thumbnails, those are actually views,
00:03:46.720 and then we looked at how that was going on to other sites, and it was over a million,
00:03:51.040 and the next day similar. People are very much concerned with the whole aspect of,
00:03:56.400 are we looking at an invasion here? Are we looking at illegal immigration? And a person
00:04:03.360 I talked to yesterday, who's very well known, but not vocal or not in the public eye at all,
00:04:08.240 said, thank you so much for speaking about it, because most of us are afraid to even speak up
00:04:13.760 because we'll be considered hateful or phobic or something like that. So much of the response,
00:04:20.160 about 90% in favor, which is a pretty good number when you're looking at 500,000 views.
00:04:26.880 Yeah, the government has done some internal polling on that. They know what a touchy issue it
00:04:31.920 is and so they've made some moves that seemed to be intended to cut back on the sheer volume of
00:04:40.240 people coming into the country but i mean you can make the case that the damage was done i mean what
00:04:45.860 was it 5 million i don't know what the number was it came in uh over the last 15 years or 10 years
00:04:53.400 rather or so 10 11 years and yeah that's a great observation that's a great observation it really
00:04:58.760 cranked up in 2015 with the change of government. I mean, we had a steady flow of legal immigration
00:05:05.800 under Stephen Harper and manageable, and it really shot up under the years from 2015 onward.
00:05:14.320 And it's not just the mass effect of it, but people are looking at how carefully have people
00:05:22.480 been viewed, how carefully have they been scrutinized. And then when you see another
00:05:27.640 possible, you know, you're quite right. The government is sensitive to this. And when you
00:05:32.440 see the Liberals trying some flying, some trial balloons on the situation in related to Haiti,
00:05:38.400 where 300,000 people might be being moved out, deported out of the U.S. And we see the CBC and
00:05:46.000 other organizations urging the government to take in another wave like this. And it's the lack of
00:05:52.140 scrutiny. It's the questionable values that people are bringing. It's one thing to bring in
00:05:58.980 new people. It's another thing to bring in people who seem to hate our actual country and what we
00:06:04.380 stand for. So those are the things liberals have realized they're on touchy ground here.
00:06:09.820 And I think they did it for political reasons. I think they've done the demographic work.
00:06:14.300 They know that a lot of their supporters, the elbows-up crowd, older Canadians, boomers, and so they need another voting bloc in a hurry, you know.
00:06:27.320 And so I think they've done the math and realized that a lot of younger Canadians, a lot of them have left, but the ones that are staying are not happy with the state of the economy.
00:06:37.920 And so they've sort of shifted their support level to conservatives.
00:06:43.720 And you never used to see that, even when you were a politician.
00:06:46.840 Generally speaking, you didn't think of younger Canadians as gravitating towards conservative views.
00:06:53.080 But here we are seeing more and more of that.
00:06:55.440 So I wonder if this was largely politically motivated on their part, and they really didn't care.
00:07:01.340 They knew it was going to cause chaos.
00:07:03.240 They knew it was going to strain social services like health care.
00:07:06.680 They knew it was going to create a housing crisis, which it has, that would spark societal
00:07:12.420 ills that would lead to more crime, but they didn't care because they just needed the people
00:07:16.920 here eventually to form a voting bloc.
00:07:19.580 What do you think of that theory?
00:07:22.260 Well, that is very clearly the strategy.
00:07:24.500 And what they do is they look at certain areas because when you do the polling across the
00:07:29.740 country, when there's, let's say, coming up to an election, the liberal and conservative
00:07:35.420 of gap closes and the undecided gap can be anywhere from, you know, six to nine, maybe
00:07:41.940 10%.
00:07:42.820 And that is, so that's very critical when it comes to the necessary seat count, which
00:07:48.620 can give you a majority.
00:07:49.720 And so they'll look at certain areas and I don't want to pick on regions of the country,
00:07:54.280 but let's face it, the GTA, when they look on certain areas that they know they can win
00:07:58.960 seats if it's stacked up with new Canadians. And they, in effect, lure the new Canadian vote
00:08:06.420 with all kinds of promises of subsidies of various kinds. So they only have to really
00:08:12.960 concentrate heavily in maybe 10 or 12 areas, and it will get them the necessary votes in those areas
00:08:19.180 to get a majority. And what they count on is that mainstream media will not expose that.
00:08:26.820 The mainstream media really won't go after it, but that clearly is what's driving it.
00:08:32.340 It's purely political.
00:08:34.380 And anytime you're looking at massive immigration, when it's not properly done, that has a real
00:08:43.220 impact on the country, but it's driven purely political, always have been, all the way back
00:08:48.640 to Pierre Trudeau.
00:08:49.640 I'm old enough and I was young enough then to realize what was going on.
00:08:54.320 what they hope for, that just enough to take them over at the finish line when it comes
00:08:58.560 down to a federal vote.
00:09:00.660 Yeah, I mean, they've looked at what's happened in other jurisdictions, in other countries.
00:09:04.240 For instance, we've seen a massive backlash against wide open immigration in Germany,
00:09:09.500 for instance, in France, in the UK, and some of the populist conservative parties out there,
00:09:15.760 parties that didn't even exist 10 years ago in some cases.
00:09:18.500 They are leading in the polls.
00:09:20.700 And so they know that this is a very strong irritant for people and it's changing their country and they don't like it.
00:09:30.540 And so I think you really have, you know, a rock and a hard place here going up against each other.
00:09:37.260 One side wants to push this and they don't they don't care if the people like it.
00:09:41.760 And the other side is saying, we're going to stop you with the vote.
00:09:44.620 And it's just a matter of enough people waking up.
00:09:47.760 I mean, at the end of the day.
00:09:49.100 And it certainly seems that Canada are waking up and becoming more alarmed.
00:09:53.520 So the fact that you should have so much success with that video, I think it speaks to that, you know,
00:09:59.080 the level of alarm that we're starting to see amongst Canadians on the matter of mass immigration.
00:10:05.000 And the fact that their culture is, well, it seems like the culture is under attack.
00:10:10.800 It feels like we're under attack not by our own government, you know,
00:10:14.320 that is wielding mass immigration as a weapon, as a political weapon against the people who are just trying to get by.
00:10:23.080 You know, so they're more and more preoccupied with the problems that we're seeing in our society and starting to piece together.
00:10:30.240 I mean, it may not entirely be fair to blame just the sheer influx of people.
00:10:34.800 But when you bring this many people into a country where you don't have the housing, you don't have the infrastructure,
00:10:41.420 sure, you don't have the healthcare able to cope, what do you end up with?
00:10:46.300 You have massive waiting lists for people and thousands of people dying on healthcare
00:10:51.180 wait lists in this country.
00:10:53.920 I mean, the problems are piling on, as you well know, Stockwell, so I can well appreciate
00:10:59.380 why you felt the need to speak out about this.
00:11:03.880 All those things are accurate, and the other resounding feedback I'm getting, as I say,
00:11:09.660 about 90 percent uh in favor of this concern but people from all walks of life who are telling me
00:11:16.540 in on their workplace or where they go to school uh they're afraid to speak up because there's an
00:11:22.420 almost instant turning on them mainly by mainstream media by mainstream media which
00:11:28.900 let's face it is culturally marxist and uh just dismissing the concern just simply using
00:11:34.580 you know the r word calling them racist calling them phobic a terrible thing in people's jobs
00:11:41.260 they feel are at risk so then you add to that and and you would be familiar with this with how this
00:11:46.000 works in canada and mainstream media which is culturally marxist we all know that uh there are
00:11:52.020 sort of a few you know let's call them the big dogs uh in media the main journalists people's
00:11:58.760 You know, whose faces and names we see constantly out there in mainstream media, they really set the narrative for the rest of the journalists who are afraid also to report on this.
00:12:10.280 And one of the biggest inducements that the federal government uses, not only with its state-funded network being the CBC, but they're constantly hanging out there, the possibility of a Senate appointment.
00:12:25.000 And sometimes people scoff at that and they say, oh no, that wouldn't actually influence somebody's reporting.
00:12:30.060 I know so many of these journalists, actually some of them are friends of mine and people concede that the fact that journalists regularly get appointed to the Senate, I mean, it's like winning the lottery.
00:12:42.040 And when you're a lead journalist on mainstream media, that will take the edge off of your reporting when you should be going after the governing party, whoever it is, whatever party.
00:12:51.840 But you know, it could diminish your chance at getting that beautiful appointment.
00:12:57.240 It has a very real effect.
00:12:59.040 You watch for the next Senate appointments.
00:13:00.880 I'm putting this out there.
00:13:01.880 I've got written a couple of names down who actually the journalists, who I think will
00:13:05.420 be next.
00:13:06.420 Is Bob on that list?
00:13:09.460 Yeah.
00:13:10.460 Yeah.
00:13:11.460 And did you say, are you on that list?
00:13:13.160 No, I mean, is Bob Fyfe on that list?
00:13:15.720 Robert Fyfe.
00:13:16.720 Well, I know Bob well, so I'm not going to expose it right now.
00:13:21.840 say it's interesting you mention that name.
00:13:25.020 No, it's a huge factor.
00:13:26.820 And though, as I said, those so-called lead journalists, they set the narrative
00:13:30.840 tone for all the rest of journalists in mainstream media.
00:13:33.600 So it really takes the edge off of people, Canadians being informed on things like this.
00:13:38.460 We've, we've got five minutes left to chat.
00:13:40.980 Uh, when you were leader of the Canadian Alliance, I mean, you talk about the media,
00:13:43.960 you were attacked mercilessly by the CBC, particularly, uh, obsessed with trying to
00:13:49.920 destroy you politically. I'm reminded of that Doris Day stuff with Rick Mercer. We're going
00:13:55.500 back quite a few years here, but I remember it vividly and how cruel and mean it was. And
00:14:02.040 the fact that they would spend so much time focused on opposition members rather than the
00:14:08.180 government of the day under John Chrétien. And what are we seeing now, Stockwell? I mean,
00:14:12.000 isn't it the same thing? Are we seeing the media focused, you know, having their crosshairs
00:14:17.920 on Pierre Polyev rather than Mark Carney.
00:14:23.480 I mean, how do you maybe,
00:14:26.460 can you speak on that a little bit?
00:14:28.460 Sure.
00:14:28.880 Happening in terms of not only the media attacks on Polyev,
00:14:33.640 but the internal rift that we're seeing
00:14:36.300 in the Conservative Party
00:14:37.540 and how that might play out going forward.
00:14:40.880 Yeah, it's a great observation.
00:14:41.960 And I don't want to whine and cry,
00:14:44.060 but thank you for raising those issues
00:14:45.720 related to me when I was there.
00:14:47.080 By the way, I remember doing a photo shoot and we were getting ready to do some ads and
00:14:53.260 things like that.
00:14:54.260 And there was also a volunteer component of people who were providing the camera work.
00:14:59.080 And two people within one day who do camera work and work in the studios, they were actually
00:15:03.080 full-time for CBC.
00:15:04.580 Obviously, I'm not going to mention their names even years later.
00:15:08.260 They both told me while we were doing this volunteer photo shoot and they were offering
00:15:12.140 their services, not to the party, but to the organization we were working with.
00:15:15.880 They said, Mr. Day, you have no idea how they slash and trash you, as they say, on the cutting
00:15:22.860 room floor.
00:15:23.860 Now, that was in the day when you would still have reels being looked at, and it wasn't
00:15:27.440 quite as sophisticated, but he said, and then he gave me a high praise, he said, we haven't
00:15:33.000 seen that kind of slashing and cutting on somebody since we witnessed what they do to
00:15:38.160 the Pope.
00:15:39.160 Well, I'm not Catholic, but if you're putting me in that high of stratosphere, okay, I'll
00:15:44.560 accept that.
00:15:45.680 But you're quite right, it's deliberate, and when they are culturally intoned and just
00:15:52.720 to speak, even if they're going after the government, whether it was Chrétien or whether
00:15:57.200 it's Carney or Trudeau, yeah, they'll still say something that might be seen as critical,
00:16:02.400 but not with anywhere the near tone of venom that they do with a conservative leader.
00:16:07.320 I'm just saying that's how it is.
00:16:08.660 That's how it was with Stephen Harper.
00:16:11.120 He was a smart guy and a great prime minister, but he had to face that.
00:16:16.240 Remember, he did not win that first election and neither in the next one did we get a majority.
00:16:22.120 But then we saw the same, whether it's against Andrew Scheer, Aaron O'Toole.
00:16:26.360 So what they do, mainstream media just continues to hammer, hammer, hammer negatively.
00:16:31.280 That starts to bring the leader down in the polls.
00:16:33.780 And then internally, your members start to look around and say, wow, he just doesn't
00:16:38.380 seem to be able to break through.
00:16:39.880 should change his style maybe he should talk more more quietly um it is a it is the constant um
00:16:47.640 process i wish canadians would wake up to it it's the same thing every time and so i'm telling my
00:16:53.000 fellow conservatives no stick with pierre he's doing a great job bring in somebody new the exact
00:16:59.640 same process will happen there'll be a little bit of a bump in the polls and then that the the media
00:17:06.520 the venom and the uh emotional attack it'll start to have um it'll start to have that effect again so
00:17:14.040 keep saying the things that need to be said i'm trying to encourage mps look what i'm not even
00:17:18.440 running for office look what happened when i'm speaking on these keep speaking the truth speak
00:17:23.720 it in love but speak the truth and enough of it will start to get through uh and it also helps
00:17:30.680 if the NDP pick up a little bit, but the Liberal Party has become such a far-left party that NDP,
00:17:38.360 the die-hard socialists, feel very at home with the Federal Liberals, and that's really hurting
00:17:44.200 us economically because the economic program of the Federal Liberals is definitely government
00:17:49.560 control of the economy, government control of who's in business, and it has a stagnating effect.
00:17:56.200 Look at just the two days ago, and I put this out on my website there at stockholding.com.
00:18:02.400 Look at the number, a record number of Canadians, consumers declaring bankruptcy.
00:18:07.520 Record number has gone up in the second quarter considerably over the last quarter.
00:18:11.360 But federal media, no, they just back off on stuff like that.
00:18:15.420 They'll show pictures of the prime minister, you know, waltzing into another country or walking through a line where everybody's waving and praising him.
00:18:23.460 So it's a tough battle.
00:18:25.080 It can be won.
00:18:26.200 But you have to stand up.
00:18:27.240 You can't back off on the small-c conservative principles
00:18:30.840 that we know will make our country strong.
00:18:33.460 Right.
00:18:34.320 How do people find you online?
00:18:35.800 Again, is it stockworldday.com?
00:18:37.840 Yeah, stockworldday.com.
00:18:39.080 They go there.
00:18:39.780 And we're just actually revamping the website right now.
00:18:42.140 But the first page will come up, and it will say newscast.
00:18:45.600 Feel free to jump on there and give me feedback for sure.
00:18:48.880 Also, I'm on X also.
00:18:50.960 Thank you so much for coming on the show.
00:18:52.240 Great to chat with you.
00:18:53.660 Thanks for your interest.
00:18:54.500 Thanks for the good job you're doing by now.
00:18:55.800 Thank you.
