00:00:00.000 It was a bit rich hearing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau blame the opposition
00:00:12.120 Conservatives for creating a backlash against his open border policies.
00:00:16.680 But the fear-mongering and the misinformation that is being deliberately and knowingly put
00:00:28.340 out by the Conservative Party right now is very dangerous to something that has been
00:00:35.540 an extraordinary advantage and benefit for Canada for generations.
00:00:40.800 During a round of year-end interviews, that unpalatable love-in between Liberals in politics
00:00:46.200 and Liberals in the media, Justin Trudeau lashed out at Andrew Scheer and the Conservative Party
00:00:52.100 for their opposition of his reckless immigration policies.
00:00:56.200 He accused the Conservatives of spreading falsehoods about immigration and fear-mongering about
00:01:00.960 the UN Global Compact on migration.
00:01:03.700 You remember that global scheme that seeks to censor media outlets and make migration a 0.83
00:01:08.700 universal human right?
00:01:10.860 While Trudeau's comments, which went unchallenged by the adoring mainstream media, they're striking.
00:01:17.580 Striking in their lack of self-awareness.
00:01:19.200 Now, Canada is poised to sign on to something called the UN Global Compact on Security.
00:01:25.700 That's an agreement to help deal with the migrant crisis around the world.
00:01:29.580 But here are the facts.
00:01:30.580 It is a non-binding agreement.
00:01:32.600 It has no legal authority.
00:01:34.960 Nonetheless, Andrew Scheer and US President Donald Trump, among others, have all refused
00:01:40.460 to sign it.
00:01:41.460 The reality is that the Conservatives are not responsible for the anti-immigration backlash
00:01:46.700 that's surging in Canada.
00:01:48.580 That one falls squarely on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
00:01:52.080 In my 2016 best-selling book, Losing True North, Justin Trudeau's Assault on Canadian
00:01:57.400 Citizenship, I laid out the irresponsible immigration policies unveiled by the Trudeau government.
00:02:03.420 These include bringing in 50,000 Syrian refugees on an artificial timeline, hastily fast-tracking
00:02:10.200 people from a war zone and a hotbed for Islamist terrorism and anti-Western social views, while
00:02:15.800 also skipping essential screening, vetting and integration programs.
00:02:21.180 Weakening the requirements to become a Canadian citizenship, including reducing the residency
00:02:25.640 requirement down to just three years part-time.
00:02:29.180 Eliminating language requirements for newcomers over the age of 55.
00:02:33.180 Boosting the number of permanent residency visas given to foreign seniors, allowing foreign
00:02:38.840 seniors full access to healthcare and social systems without ever paying into our system.
00:02:44.680 Scrapping the asylum-seeker triage system that fast-tracked the deportation of fake refugees
00:02:50.440 who are coming from safe countries.
00:02:53.060 Eliminating sections of the citizenship guide that told immigrants to follow Canadian laws,
00:02:57.960 and that barbaric cultural practices like honour killings and female genital mutilation are not
00:03:03.600 tolerated in Canada.
00:03:05.740 And finally, boosting the overall number of annual immigrants coming to Canada without a plan 1.00
00:03:10.960 to resettle or integrate such a large number of newcomers into Canadian society.
00:03:15.720 Look, at the time, I predicted that this combination of boosting overall immigration, weakening Canadian 0.94
00:03:21.840 citizenship rules, and no longer asking immigrants to learn our language, respect our traditions, 0.85
00:03:27.240 or adopt our values.
00:03:28.720 Well, I predicted that all this was a recipe for a disaster.
00:03:31.720 I wrote that public support for immigration would plummet, and that Canada would lose the
00:03:35.820 positive consensus on immigration that we once enjoyed.
00:03:39.480 Well, over the past two years, the Trudeau government has pushed even more reckless and
00:03:43.840 radical immigration policies, including inviting the world's refugees to come to Canada on social
00:03:49.400 media, refusing to secure our borders, eliminating health standards for immigrants, and championing 0.98
00:03:56.060 the UN Global Compact.
00:03:58.220 All the while, Trudeau told New York Magazine that Canada has no core identity and no mainstream.
00:04:04.620 And if anyone dared to criticize Justin Trudeau for all this, well, he and his henchmen would
00:04:09.460 unleash a coordinated attack.
00:04:11.960 I know, because I've been at the centre of them.
00:04:14.920 A top liberal figure once demanded that I be fired from the Toronto Sun for reporting the
00:04:20.020 truth about a Syrian refugee who beat his wife.
00:04:24.400 Another Trudeau cabinet minister called my opinion fake news because she disagreed with
00:04:29.480 my analysis.
00:04:31.480 Look, Trudeau is too vain to see it, and the media, too often, are just too biased to report
00:04:37.000 the truth.
00:04:38.400 But Canadians see it.
00:04:40.220 Justin Trudeau is tearing our country apart.
00:04:43.040 His disastrous policies and his arrogant disregard for our future has led our country to a breaking
00:04:48.600 point.
00:04:49.760 Just look at any recent public opinion poll.
00:04:52.620 They all show that more and more Canadians want our borders closed and immigration heavily 1.00
00:04:57.700 restricted.
00:04:59.400 This is a backlash that I predicted in my book back in 2016.
00:05:04.220 And Justin Trudeau has no one to blame but himself.
00:05:07.360 McKeet.
00:05:09.360 Uh-huh.
00:05:10.500 It's the省城...
