Juno News - This will end badly for Toronto

00:00:00.000 well this happened yesterday we have breaking news now cp24 is making the call

00:00:14.320 and cp24 declares an olivia chow win olivia chow will be the new mayor of toronto these

00:00:24.520 are live pictures inside chow headquarters there the ultra progressive socialist candidate

00:00:29.620 for mayor olivia chow swept to power last night as the new mayor of canada's largest city say what

00:00:35.940 you will about chow and we certainly will on the show chow's victory caps off a remarkable political

00:00:41.340 comeback after she finished a distant third place in 2014 for the same job and lost in 2015 to become 0.99

00:00:47.880 a member of parliament in a downtown toronto riding after declaring chow the victor of last

00:00:53.060 night's mayoral by-election the canadian legacy media immediately proceeded to do what they usually do

00:00:58.320 when a progressive candidate wins fawn over them and start talking about race and i just want to

00:01:03.800 add something you know olivia chow just made history she's the first woman of color she's the first

00:01:09.000 woman to be elected mayor of toronto she speaks with an accent you know so many torontonians see

00:01:15.360 themselves represented in olivia chow that's really important to pick up on chris and i'll come to you

00:01:20.060 for this she's also the first racialized mayor in toronto's history the media since this race began 0.99

00:01:26.060 have painted olivia chow as a change candidate the reality couldn't be further from that statement

00:01:32.100 chow is not a change candidate in fact chow unlike all the other candidates in the race represents the

00:01:39.220 urban status quo high taxes drug decriminalization safe supply and soft on crime those are the pillars

00:01:47.760 of olivia chow's campaign and the pillars of what the city of toronto and every other major city it

00:01:54.420 appears in canada have been embracing for the past five or six years now

00:01:58.960 you know someone should really bring up the rather uncomfortable fact that during the election olivia

00:02:06.000 chow was seen meeting with the toronto fuching business association a group that global news

00:02:12.080 alleged last year was operating overseas communist chinese police stations in markham ontario well not to

00:02:19.620 worry we're going to bring that up on this show and much more drop a like on the video help us out by

00:02:23.940 subscribing to the true north youtube channel and the comment question for the episode is this what

00:02:29.040 is going to happen to toronto over the next four years let me know in the comments and let's get

00:02:34.640 into it on the very first morning after olivia chow swept to power as mayor of toronto a shooting

00:02:40.780 outside of a daycare center at 7 30 in the morning in the heart of downtown toronto took place is there

00:02:47.260 anything more symbolic than that a shooting outside of a daycare center to welcome the new soft on crime

00:02:53.800 mayor olivia chow when i say soft on crime i mean that the word crime is not mentioned anywhere in

00:03:02.200 olivia chow's very thin platform you know what is mentioned in olivia chow's platform however

00:03:07.060 improving 9-1-1 wait times not by of course expanding the number of police to guarantee that police can show

00:03:14.820 up in an emergency no of course not that would be far too logical her plan to solve 9-1-1 wait times

00:03:21.560 is to increase the number of community social workers that can respond to emergency calls the

00:03:27.300 new mayor of toronto thankfully recognizes that something needs to be done about the ttc about the

00:03:32.280 transit system in canada's largest city solving crime on the ttc however just didn't seem to make

00:03:38.360 it into olivia chow's platform the fact that cold-blooded murders like that of vanessa kirpieska 0.97

00:03:44.620 31 year old woman killed with an ice pick on a subway in broad daylight that might be an issue for

00:03:50.540 you but not for olivia chow how about the fatal stabbing of 16 year old gabriel magalays on a friday

00:03:57.340 night waiting for a bus outside of a subway station again that might be a problem for you but not for

00:04:02.700 olivia chow this is to say nothing at all over the far too often murder of ttc service workers simply

00:04:10.620 because they happen to be working in the ttc the problem for olivia chow seems to be that the ttc

00:04:16.700 subway system isn't running fast enough and that buses are just too full sure that of course should

00:04:22.300 be the goal for most transit systems subways should run on time especially when it costs over three

00:04:27.580 dollars to get in there but when torontonians have to fear for their life while taking the streetcar and

00:04:33.900 subway i think there are probably some larger problems at hand if you have visited toronto over the

00:04:39.660 past three years or you happen to be one of the unfortunate people who live in downtown you will

00:04:44.540 have likely noticed that toronto's once beloved and once great parks have been completely taken over

00:04:51.580 by tent encampments inside of these tent cities which don't just happen to be inside toronto but are

00:04:57.500 now a staple of vancouver crime runs rampant and drug use is not just prevalent but it looks as though

00:05:05.020 it's encouraged thanks in large part to the city of toronto embracing safe injection safe supply and

00:05:12.380 drug decriminalization which is now almost a certainty thanks to olivia chow becoming mayor city of toronto

00:05:19.500 public health facilities along with any city of toronto shelter are handing out free drug starter

00:05:25.900 kits these include a bag full of needles crack pipes crystal meth kits everything you would want to

00:05:32.220 become hooked on drugs the city of toronto is giving for free not to mention of course the fact

00:05:37.980 that the city of toronto is handing out hydromorphone a more potent heroin alternative

00:05:43.500 to addicts as a way to wean them off of drugs as i've also mentioned on this show before the city of

00:05:49.900 toronto public health department has submitted a proposal to the federal government seeking an exemption

00:05:55.820 to decriminalize the possession of all hard drugs of any amount for any age that's right anyone

00:06:03.340 including a child could walk around the city of toronto with fentanyl or crack or heroin and the

00:06:09.500 police would be able to do nothing about it this is supposed to as people like olivia chow and the 1.00

00:06:14.620 federal government always remind us save lives but everyone should stop their concern why are we getting

00:06:22.700 so worked up over olivia chow becoming mayor despite the fact that feces from homeless people will cover

00:06:29.020 our streets along with needles and crack pipes all you'll have to do is just dodge the feces and crack 0.90

00:06:35.180 pipes on your way to the library on sunday that's right one of olivia chow's key policies when running 0.99

00:06:41.660 for mayor was to open up toronto's public libraries on sundays a fantastic proposal which will most certainly

00:06:49.100 change the city's fortunes also olivia chow is without a doubt the undisputed champion of bike

00:06:55.420 lanes these bike lanes will become a permanent fixture on our streets especially during the winter months

00:07:01.740 when for six months of the year not a single person is using those bike lanes but again we shouldn't be

00:07:07.580 so concerned because one of olivia chow's key platform policies is to champion the arts in toronto

00:07:13.980 olivia chow has a plan to make toronto more of an arts and culture destination in fact in olivia chow's

00:07:21.740 arts and culture policy she even makes a plan to cut taxes for arts and culture hubs while increasing

00:07:29.740 taxes for everyone else don't worry about needles crack pipes and tent cities in toronto parks because

00:07:37.660 for a quarter of the year olivia chow is going to increase the number of patios outside of toronto 0.97

00:07:43.180 restaurants just like opening up libraries on sundays she's really grabbing the issues of the

00:07:48.300 day by the horns isn't she olivia chow also plans to build 25 000 rent controlled homes on city land 1.00

00:07:57.020 that's her words i'm not exactly sure where she's going to find the space to do that but of course

00:08:02.860 something that nobody is mentioning is that olivia chow is beloved by city developers she is without a 0.88

00:08:09.420 doubt the developer candidate because she has plans to build more than any other candidate following a 0.98

00:08:14.700 pattern in canadian politics the developer's choice always seems to win isn't that interesting this

00:08:20.460 brings us now to olivia chow the new mayor of toronto's alleged close connections with the fuching

00:08:27.020 business association of toronto you see in early may olivia chow is allegedly seen meeting with the

00:08:34.460 fuching business association in toronto trying to get their support for her mayoral candidacy in a

00:08:41.020 global news report from last year the canada toronto fuching business association was accused of

00:08:47.420 operating one of those overseas communist chinese police stations according to a national post article

00:08:54.140 chow also met with the group called the council of newcomer organizations this same organization is a

00:09:00.460 pro-china group that has denied the uyghur genocide and opposed hong kong's pro-freedom protests

00:09:06.620 interestingly a spokeswoman for the chow campaign confirmed that chow was not even invited to this

00:09:12.700 council of newcomers organization meeting and that that council had not endorsed chow for mayor but that

00:09:18.780 she showed up on her own and brought greetings to say that these connections in these meetings that

00:09:24.540 olivia chow held before the election would not be newsworthy is of course ridiculous because everyone

00:09:30.380 in canada deserves to be able to have these conversations and weigh these facts however

00:09:34.220 uncomfortable they might be but if it's true that olivia chow the most soft on crime candidate in the 1.00

00:09:39.580 election a person who wants to not increase more police officers but instead hire crisis support

00:09:46.300 workers to handle 911 calls was in fact dealing with an organization running chinese police stations

00:09:53.180 the irony just has to be raised and has to be laughed at doesn't it a soft on crime mayor meeting with

00:09:59.100 a group that is running chinese police stations in canada all right everyone that's going to do it for

00:10:03.900 us today on the show thank you so much for tuning in my name is harrison faulkner and this is ratio
