00:00:00.000 The spectacle of COP26 continues, but how can anybody take these climate hypocrites seriously?
00:00:06.520 I'm Candice Malcolm, and this is The Candice Malcolm Show.
00:00:13.540 Hi everyone, thank you so much for tuning into the podcast. It is great to have you with us today.
00:00:18.320 So the spectacle over in Scotland continues with COP26, where we see blowhard politicians
00:00:25.000 gathering from all over the world congratulating themselves for caring so much about the planet,
00:00:30.120 pontificating about all the various schemes and ideas they have to tax the economy,
00:00:35.880 to tax the citizens of the world. Justin Trudeau's latest idea is that he wants a global carbon tax.
00:00:41.500 So he wants to impose a carbon tax on poverty-stricken individuals in the world's poorest countries.
00:00:47.520 He wants people in developing countries and poor countries to take their hard-earned money
00:00:51.880 and give it over to corrupt government officials, in many cases very corrupt communist government
00:00:57.040 officials. And what, that's somehow going to change the planet? That's going to change the fate of the
00:01:01.560 planet? That's going to change the future weather of the planet? I mean, the whole thing is just
00:01:05.880 absolutely ridiculous. It is so absurd. And yet here we have the situation where not only are we paying 0.96
00:01:12.040 for all of these entitled, arrogant politicians to go and have basically a two-week party where they all
00:01:18.620 feel so good about themselves, where they are able to virtue signal, where they are able to feel
00:01:22.960 so powerful and so important that they're going to change the fate of the planet. They're going to
00:01:27.580 save the planet, these people. And meanwhile, they're all flying in, you know, in the day and
00:01:32.680 age where you can go to a meeting on Zoom. Many people still work from home. Many people still
00:01:37.780 telecommute. You can get onto your computer, go to a conference on Zoom. Justin Trudeau was able to do
00:01:42.760 that throughout the entire pandemic. And yet somehow now he has to jump on a plane in order to save the
00:01:48.780 planet because the thing that's going to save the planet is a bunch of world leaders and business
00:01:54.120 executives flying on airplanes. So we saw the story that there are 30,000 officials at this conference
00:02:00.060 in Scotland, 30,000. And that's just the officials, right? There are also journalists from all the
00:02:06.160 countries from all over the world going to attend this thing. So we're talking about thousands and
00:02:10.980 thousands of airplanes. We saw that report that there were 400 private jets carrying business leaders
00:02:16.380 and politicians to this thing. So, so all of these people who are sitting around pushing
00:02:21.180 doomsday scenarios about how the world's going to end, how it's all over. And it's all because of
00:02:25.580 carbon. It's all because of things like airplanes and the amount of carbon that's released in the
00:02:30.620 atmosphere. And the only way to save it, folks, the only way to stop this doom scenario of our planet
00:02:36.520 is for these entitled politicians to jump on their planes, to jump on their private jets and fly to
00:02:43.320 Scotland. And somehow that's going to make everything okay. That's going to make it all better. And how
00:02:48.120 are we supposed to take these people seriously? Like, like if you actually believe the rhetoric
00:02:52.520 that these politicians put out, and it's not just liberals like Justin Trudeau, we saw a conservative
00:02:57.320 UK leader Boris Johnson say the same nonsense, that it's a doomsday scenario. We saw the UN Secretary General
00:03:04.200 saying that humans are, are digging their own graves. Well, well, if you actually believe that the world
00:03:08.520 has what, like five years left, and then it's going to be a fiery apocalypse. If you actually believe
00:03:14.440 that kind of rhetoric, do you know what the last thing you would do? The last thing you would do if
00:03:18.760 you actually believe that is jump on a private jet and fly to Scotland. If you were actually concerned
00:03:23.160 about the amount of carbon going into the atmosphere, if you were so paranoid and you believe
00:03:27.240 that we had such little time to act, the last thing you would do is organize a conference where you
00:03:32.200 asked tens of thousands of people, probably 50,000 people, maybe 40,000 people to come to Scotland,
00:03:38.440 uh, to sit around and go to meetings and do things that you could easily do in this day and age on
00:03:43.640 your computer. So, so, so just the whole basis of this thing is a total scam. It's total nonsense.
00:03:48.920 And to hear politicians come up with these schemes, again, it's all just designed to make themselves
00:03:53.080 feel better, designed to impress the small portion of the population that really cares about this issue.
00:03:58.680 And the whole thing's nonsense. You should not listen to these politicians. You should not give them
00:04:03.320 the satisfaction of thinking that they're doing anything good. So the whole thing just shouldn't be taken
00:04:08.200 seriously. Uh, these, these politicians deserve us to mock them, to make fun of them, uh, to point
00:04:14.440 out their hypocrisy and how absurd it is. Uh, but no, these are not the moral leaders of the planet. 0.97
00:04:19.000 These are not the people who are going to change the fate of the planet. If, if their doomsday scenarios,
00:04:24.200 uh, turn out to be true. And by the way, they're not, they're very exaggerated. And we're going to get
00:04:27.800 into this later in the show. Uh, there's a long history of, of humans doing this, of humans believing,
00:04:33.400 that we're destroying the planet, that we only have a short period to act. Uh, in the, in the,
00:04:37.240 in the course of the last 50 years, there's been so many different types of doomsday scenarios. Uh,
00:04:41.880 be it famine, uh, be it global cooling, heading into an ice age, now global warming. Uh, humans always
00:04:46.920 come up with these sort of doomsday scenarios. There's always a segment of the population, um, that
00:04:51.160 really believes that some, something that we're doing is, is going to just end civilization, that we're all
00:04:56.280 going to die because of it and that we have to change course. And then, and then the beautiful thing is
00:05:00.760 that when there are actual problems with regards to, uh, you know, pollution or the, the threat of
00:05:05.880 starvation, the, the booming population, uh, human innovation sort of kicks in and we get these
00:05:11.240 amazing developments in, in terms of scientific breakthroughs, um, you know, entrepreneurial
00:05:16.520 opportunities, people like, like I talked about this the other day with my colleague, uh, Anthony
00:05:21.320 Furey, that I have a lot more faith in someone like Elon Musk to solve a very complex problem. Um,
00:05:27.320 than I do in someone like Justin Trudeau, who, you know, he's an empty suit. He just says whatever
00:05:31.960 he needs to say. And, and he doesn't actually know how to effectuate his promises. So he,
00:05:36.200 so he wants to be the climate guy. He wants to be the leader of this. And yet, when you look at
00:05:39.880 Canada's own record on emissions under his watch, uh, we, we, we fail. We don't meet any of his
00:05:45.400 self-imposed targets, despite his heavy handed government policies. So, so Justin Trudeau is a very
00:05:50.360 ineffectual, uh, person in this space. Someone like Elon Musk to the contrary is someone who is very
00:05:55.560 effective. So I have more faith in the sort of entrepreneurial, uh, private sector type people,
00:06:00.840 um, than I do in any of these government officials. But first, if you enjoy the Candace Malcolm show,

00:06:47.480 if you enjoy the Candace Malcolm show, please, please consider leaving us a five-star review. And don't
00:06:51.960 forget to subscribe to the Candace Malcolm show. All right. The insanity, the insanity of COP26
00:06:58.920 continues. There's a story over in black ops, absolutely insane. I don't know how anyone
00:07:03.240 takes these people seriously. Canadian government sends 276 delegates, 276 delegates plus 17 press aids
00:07:12.600 to COP26. So for some reason, Canada needs to send 293 people, 293 people to go to this conference.
00:07:21.160 Why on earth would it take 293 Canadians? And let me just tell you, I'm sure they didn't all fly 1.00
00:07:28.440 together. I'm sure it wasn't just one chartered airplane with 293 Canadians on board. Plus,
00:07:34.600 obviously the flight attendants and the pilots. I'm sure there wasn't just one plane. My guess is that
00:07:39.640 there was at least half a dozen or a dozen planes carrying these delegates that went across the
00:07:45.640 Atlantic over to Scotland to save the planet from global warming. It is just such an absolute joke.
00:07:51.240 So the, according to black locks, the department of the environment yesterday would not detail the
00:07:56.360 cost of sending Canada's 276 member delegation to the climate change conference. And really that
00:08:02.360 should say 293 because 276 delegates plus 17 press aides. So it takes 17, uh, press secretaries and PR
00:08:13.240 flags, uh, plus 276 delegates to attend a conference so that they can all virtue signal and show off their
00:08:21.560 climate credentials. What a joke. What an absolute joke. So, so basically we had the environment minister,
00:08:27.240 deputy environment minister, assistant deputy minister, the climate change ambassador, the
00:08:32.520 climate change director, and 25 advisors and negotiators within the department of the environment.
00:08:39.640 Plus they sent a whole bunch of provincial environment people. So, so you had, you had officials
00:08:45.320 from the provincial governments, officials from the federal government, plus the prime minister himself,
00:08:50.760 the prime minister's official photographer, the prime minister's official videographer,
00:08:54.920 the prime minister's speech writer, and 17 press secretaries and communication directors, plus
00:09:01.560 four CBC reporters, the entire green party caucus, and a bunch of basically anybody. If you were in
00:09:08.040 Ottawa, you wanted to go to this conference. They basically just had a bus there saying any,
00:09:12.600 any, anyone who wants to come to Glasgow, anyone who wants to come to Scotland to be part of this
00:09:17.400 climate change thing, jump on board. We're going guys, we're going the whole, the whole,
00:09:21.880 the whole city of Ottawa is in Scotland right now. It is just so silly. So silly. This is this huge 0.98
00:09:28.120 number. Of course, this is, shouldn't be surprising. Canada sent the most delegates to COP26 out of all
00:09:33.480 the G7 nations. What way to go? What leadership? We, we in Canada, we know how to waste money better
00:09:39.160 than anyone else. We know how to virtue signal and be total hypocrites by flying people to a climate 0.97
00:09:44.760 change conference. Canada, we're number one. We're number one guys. So, so Canada had their 276 delegates 0.93
00:09:51.000 plus 17 press secretaries. So that should say 293. Meanwhile, in the UK, they sent the second
00:09:57.000 highest number of delegates, 227. They didn't have to fly, I assume. Well, some of them probably did,
00:10:01.640 but others could just probably take a train. Uh, and they only managed to muster up 227 people. Wow.
00:10:08.440 We put them to shame. All right. The UK was followed by Japan who sent 225. France sent 195. 0.98
00:10:15.000 The US came in fifth with 133. Meanwhile, Germany only sent a mere, a measly 120 delegates and Italy,
00:10:23.240 66. Wow. Well, Canada, we sure showed them we care the most about climate change.
00:10:28.120 Uh, there, there was this story as well. Catherine McKenna is there. She's showing off on our Twitter,
00:10:33.160 showing everyone how, how important she is. She's still boozing and schmoozing with the, uh, officials 1.00
00:10:38.040 over at COP26. Uh, so according to Black Locks, again, former environment minister, Catherine McKenna
00:10:44.440 attended as a VIP. Guys, she's very important. That's why she's there because she's a very important
00:10:49.960 person. The department did not reply when asked if she traveled at taxpayer's expense. So the question
00:10:56.280 is, did, did taxpayers pay for Catherine McKenna? I'm going to guess that we did. I'm going to guess
00:11:01.480 that we did. So McKenna is not on the official delegate list, but she's at the conference and
00:11:05.640 heading meetings, multiple tweets from Catherine McKenna at COP26, uh, were shown. Here's a couple.
00:11:10.920 She says, great event to recognize Mike Bloomberg's new initiative to accelerate coal phase out in 35
00:11:16.520 countries. Canada and Stephen Gilboa, who's the environment minister were recognized as key partners
00:11:21.800 with $1 billion in support to developing countries. So, oh yeah. So this is also a key part of the global,
00:11:28.440 uh, climate change conference is we just splash money all over the place. It's like,
00:11:32.680 Justin Trudeau is this big spender. There he is a billion for you, a billion for you,
00:11:36.760 just throwing out all of the taxpayers money. Like it means nothing. Like it grows on trees.
00:11:41.640 So Catherine McKenna, I don't know if these tweets are sending, are being sent out late at night,
00:11:47.000 but she says this, there's nothing like girlfriends, exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation
00:11:52.520 point. So she's having a good time over there. Um, and none are better than these people who are all
00:11:57.880 her buddies, an amazing example of women leading on climate. Another one saying, loving today's mask, 1.00
00:12:05.320 feminist climate justice, women leading on climate change. Way to go, Catherine McKenna,
00:12:10.600 you are saving the world. But again, nobody really knows why Catherine McKenna is there. Nobody really
00:12:15.560 knows what she does for a living. Now, even in a recent interview with global news, she doesn't
00:12:20.040 indicate exactly what her role is other than she is just there to unveil a new climate initiative.
00:12:26.040 So she's just kind of like a cheerleader, kind of just like, you know, there for moral support,
00:12:31.160 uh, there to just, you know, shine, shine her star, show off her celebrity, uh, in this space and just 1.00
00:12:37.000 there to be part of it all. And, uh, to, to, to, to really, uh, save the planet, um, because,
00:12:42.680 because of carbon. So in this political report, it says McKenna is not part of the Canadian
00:12:47.480 delegation, but if that's the case, why wouldn't the government just acknowledge that? Because they
00:12:52.120 were asked directly by black locks, they wouldn't acknowledge it. Uh, but apparently in this Politico
00:12:56.280 report, they did. So kind of poorly handled there by the government, but really what more do you
00:13:00.600 expect? They're just so distracted by the opportunity to save the planet and to fight back on carbon. So
00:13:06.360 we could forgive them for that. So Catherine McKenna's record as a minister in the Trudeau
00:13:10.760 government was mixed. Of course, she was praised and adored by the liberal media. They loved her 0.65
00:13:15.800 and the Trudeau sort of liberal circle. She was lauded as, as a star, uh, as far, as far as again,
00:13:21.720 her actual, uh, record while taxpayers paid $42,000 for her climate change farewell tour,
00:13:28.920 she jet set 22,000 kilometers, uh, doing various events. According to black locks, again, McKenna's
00:13:35.080 plane guzzled tens of thousands of liters of aviation fuel, and she was telling Canadians to change their 0.85
00:13:39.880 habits to combat climate change. Again, nothing convinces the public that they've got to stop their
00:13:45.240 reliance on fossil fuels, quite like politicians flying all over the place in their private jets,
00:13:51.320 guzzling up their own fossil fuels, and then telling us that we have to stop. Nothing, nothing
00:13:56.280 quite so effective as that. Uh, here's another one. Catherine McKenna racked up over $100,000 in taxi 0.99
00:14:02.200 fares while she was environment minister. So despite having her own driver, ministers in the government, 0.92
00:14:07.800 ministers in Ottawa, they all have their own drivers, their own cars, uh, that pick them up and
00:14:11.720 take them all over the place. Regardless, records show that the ministry of the environment spent
00:14:16.440 over $143,000 on taxis. And most of that was accrued with McKenna as the minister. Next,
00:14:24.520 Catherine McKenna's ministry claims that they have no record of her mileage. So this one comes from a
00:14:30.280 Rebel News investigative exclusive about McKenna's vehicle use, which found that she was using a Subaru
00:14:37.240 Crosstrek for the first two years as the environment minister before switching out the SUV for a
00:14:42.440 taxpayer funded Prius. Uh, during that time, she was crafting a carbon tax on SUVs. Meanwhile,
00:14:48.440 she was driving around in her own SUV. Next, this one comes to you from TNC.News from True North.
00:14:54.520 Catherine McKenna promises to do a better job following a scathing auditor general report. This
00:14:59.160 was when she was the infrastructure minister, and she promised more accountability after the auditor
00:15:04.600 general found her department continuously failed to meet its own goals. Speaking to the House of
00:15:09.240 Commons transport committee, McKenna said that the department needs to do a better job. And finally,
00:15:15.240 who could forget this? When I think of Catherine McKenna's time in office, I think of the climate
00:15:20.120 alarmism that she promoted. I think of her complaining a lot to the media saying that she was treated
00:15:25.080 unfairly online. Of course, the media picked right up on that and made her seem like some kind of a victim 1.00
00:15:31.560 and treated her like she had somehow been wrong. Meanwhile, you know, the internet is a pretty nasty
00:15:36.600 place for women and particularly for conservative women. I never see those sympathetic stories, though,
00:15:43.240 about conservative women. It only somehow happens when it's liberal politicians or left-wing 1.00
00:15:46.840 politicians who are being targeted. But this viral video sort of says it all. This is what we think of
00:15:52.200 when we think of Catherine McKenna. Here she is at a bar in Newfoundland telling us what she really
00:15:58.040 thinks and her real strategy when it comes to politics. But you know, I actually gave them some
00:16:04.360 real advice. I said that if you actually say it louder, we've learned in the House of Commons,
00:16:08.600 if you repeat it, if you say it louder, if that is your talking point, people will totally believe
00:16:13.320 it. So just go in. All right. So we have Catherine McKenna out there for some reason. We have no idea why.
00:16:18.440 We have almost 300 Canadian delegates plus another what a couple dozen Canadian journalists that flew over
00:16:24.520 there. What is it all for? What have we actually accomplished at COP26 so far? Well, we had Justin
00:16:30.760 Trudeau double down on an oil and gas emissions cap. Justin Trudeau, as I mentioned, called for a global
00:16:37.000 carbon tax because really what we want is money coming out of the hands of hardworking business
00:16:42.360 people and entrepreneurs around the world, particularly in developing countries, and go into the hands of
00:16:47.960 often corrupt, often communist, often horrific human rights abusing governments. That's going to
00:16:54.840 that's going to solve climate change. Okay, Justin Trudeau. Justin Trudeau's first real gaffe has come
00:17:00.200 out here. He is telling people at the conference that his carbon tax has the support of the vast
00:17:07.400 majority of Canadians, the vast majority, he says. And why does he say that it has the vast majority
00:17:13.240 support? Well, because he's the prime minister, because he's won the elections. Therefore, it means
00:17:18.040 that the vast majority of Canadians must agree with carbon tax. Here's that clip. And yes, it was
00:17:24.760 challenged by our political opponents. We had to fight all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, but we
00:17:31.720 had the had the right ruling that allows us to keep it in place. We won that battle. And we also,
00:17:39.000 more importantly, for politicians worried about bringing in a price on pollution, saw two elections
00:17:45.800 give a very clear consensus by the vast majority of Canadians that carbon pricing and putting a price
00:17:52.840 on pollution is the right path forward. We won both of those elections. And that signal as well is
00:17:59.080 something that people around the world should know. Let me just do a bit of math for the prime minister.
00:18:04.120 Let me just remind the prime minister of the math in the situation. So liberal leader, Justin Trudeau,
00:18:09.160 in the last two elections received the lowest share of the vote in Canadian history. He is the least
00:18:15.640 popular Canadian government ever elected in Canada. In this recent election, 2021, Trudeau got a mere 32%
00:18:23.640 of the vote, 32% of vote, which means that 67.8% of Canadians who voted in this election did not vote for him.
00:18:32.840 So for some context or comparison, back in 2006, Stephen Harper was elected and he won one of the
00:18:39.240 slimmest majorities in Canadian history. But even at that point, he received 36% of the vote. He received
00:18:45.000 36% of the vote. Recall back in 2006, a lot of people were saying that Harper was illegitimate,
00:18:49.720 that he hadn't actually won the election because he only got 36% of the vote. Meanwhile, here we have
00:18:54.600 Justin Trudeau with 32% of the vote. And yet claims that he has a clear consensus from the
00:18:59.800 vast majority of Canadians. So Justin Trudeau only got 32%. Remember the voter turnout was quite low in
00:19:05.560 the last election. It was only 62%. So really, Justin Trudeau got 32% of the 62%, something like 19%.
00:19:13.480 19% of adult Canadians who are eligible to vote voted for Justin Trudeau. And somehow that means
00:19:20.120 that he has a clear consensus from the vast majority of Canadians. I don't think that the
00:19:25.720 prime minister knows how math works. I'll just leave it at that. Now, as is the case with all of these
00:19:30.760 climate change conferences, every time we have one, there is just so much hypocrisy. So let's go through
00:19:35.400 some of the climate hypocrisy over at COP26. Glasgow locals attendees have been complaining about
00:19:41.800 delegates leaving their cars idling. So this one came from True North. Locals in Glasgow, Scotland,
00:19:47.400 are slamming COP26 delegates for leaving their cars idling around conference locations. So
00:19:53.400 according to Yahoo news, locals have noted that there's just a lot of engines running. So these
00:19:58.200 world leaders are just so busy and important. They have to have their drivers sitting in their cars.
00:20:02.760 The cars have to be idling just in case the important, busy, important politician needs to run 0.66
00:20:07.560 to his car and get to the next meeting. So here, here we have the people saving the world.
00:20:11.800 Just sitting around running their engines, letting their engines idle. We've seen that at many other
00:20:17.160 climate conferences. This one's sort of new though. So they have a cruise ship at COP26.
00:20:22.360 It was supposed to be an environmentally friendly cruise ship carrying thousands of COP26 attendees.
00:20:27.720 So the idea was that they just didn't have enough space in all of the hotels. So they got this cruise
00:20:31.560 ship. It was supposed to be a green environmentally friendly cruise ship. Well, it turns out that's not
00:20:36.360 the case. It turns out it is a gas guzzling fuel, guzzling cruise ship. So according to the Independent,
00:20:43.400 the ship is equipped with shore power systems, which allow the boat to charge up on electricity when docked.
00:20:49.480 Despite the feature, a majority of UK ports do not have onshore power stations for medium to large vessels.
00:20:55.960 And so this one is running on gas. So as I mentioned before, there were 400 private jets that flew in.
00:21:02.200 There's approximately 30,000 global leaders, global officials that have come to Scotland from all over
00:21:07.160 the world on their on their private planes, on their planes. An analysis by the Sunday Mail in the UK
00:21:13.000 estimated that the event will produce over 13,000 tons of CO2 pollution. And according to the outlet,
00:21:19.720 the daily record, that amount of emissions, that 13,000 tons of CO2 pollution is the amount of CO2 that
00:21:27.320 1,600 Scots put out in a single year. But again, nothing says that I care about the environment, that I
00:21:34.040 want to save the fate of humanity, that I want to save the planet. Nothing says that I care more than flying
00:21:40.440 your private plane to Scotland to go to a meeting, to impose heavy handed restrictions, to impose carbon taxes,
00:21:47.560 to spend taxpayer money on silly initiatives that will never actually change the climate or change
00:21:53.800 the weather of the planet. But again, this is how the liberal mind works. This is what they believe
00:21:58.920 they have to do in order to save the planet. Don't let them believe that. Don't let them get away with
00:22:03.080 this. This is just pure total hypocrisy, and nobody should take these people seriously. I'm Candace 0.84
00:22:08.840 Malcolm, and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.
