Juno News - Trump vindicated at Davos ｜ Trudeau gets wrecked by reporter

00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Candice Malcolm, and this is The Candice Malcolm Show. Thank you so much for tuning in.

00:00:08.680 We have a great episode for you today. We're going to be continuing our coverage of what is

00:00:12.500 happening in Davos, Switzerland with the WEF conference. Usually it's a bunch of leftist

00:00:17.320 global elites lecturing us, virtue signaling, talking about how important it is to move away

00:00:22.120 from natural gas, hyperventilating over climate alarmism, and making up imaginary scenarios about

00:00:27.560 how we're going to totally reinvent our economy. Of course, it's different this time because

00:00:30.700 President Trump is there. President Trump is inserting a much needed dose of reality and

00:00:36.200 realism into the conversation. There's a lot of hand wringing over it, but it is completely

00:00:39.960 necessary. And let me just say, from somebody who is very skeptical, from the perspective of

00:00:44.340 somebody who's very skeptical of WEF and these conferences and these global elites making plans

00:00:49.100 and schemes about the future, it feels a bit too much like global governance. It feels a bit too

00:00:53.200 much like the so-called conspiracy of the new world order. Well, it is quite satisfying to

00:00:57.540 see Trump go in there and tell them all the truth and tell them all how much they're failing

00:01:02.400 and how terrible their policies have been for regular people. So we're going to cover Trump's

00:01:06.140 speech, including his remarks towards Mark Carney, more satisfying moments, which is when we see

00:01:11.200 people like Justin Trudeau, former prime minister, actually get grilled by actual reporters,

00:01:15.920 something that barely ever happened during his 10 years in office as prime minister because he

00:01:20.540 controlled the press. Well, seeing free journalists in Davos actually getting to ask him questions,

00:01:25.100 we're going to cover that. We're going to cover his deputy, Chrystia Freeland, who almost broke down

00:01:28.200 in tears over just a couple of tough questions from our friends over at The Rebel. I think Premier

00:01:34.480 Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario, sorry, is having some buyer's remorse for endorsing the Liberals.

00:01:40.260 We'll talk a little bit about his reaction to the EV scandal that's unfolding. And finally,

00:01:45.200 there's going to be a new land acknowledgement. I think we can all get behind. So we've got a great

00:01:49.420 episode. You're going to want to tune in to the very end to hear that. Okay, so President Trump

00:01:53.680 storms Davos. He's there in person, not just zooming in, but actually speaking the truth, telling

00:01:58.240 the globalists what they desperately need to hear. I don't know if they're going to be receptive to the

00:02:01.560 message, but they should be. And that is that basically Europe's policies have bankrupted the

00:02:07.320 continent. Europe's almost unrecognizable thanks to mass open, unvetted migrations changing the 0.99

00:02:13.240 culture of Europe, and also this sort of obsession with climate alarmism, destroying their own

00:02:18.620 economies. You know, if they really believed in global warming, and they were really afraid of

00:02:23.360 the impact of fossil fuels on our environment, then they would have embraced nuclear, they would

00:02:27.820 have, but they didn't, right? They didn't, they closed down nuclear plants, they closed down gas

00:02:30.920 plants, they tried to use green energy, that didn't really work in places like Germany. And so they were

00:02:35.680 stuck importing natural gas from Russia, fueling the war that they were also fighting against. It was

00:02:40.420 totally, total hypocrisy, total nonsense. They deserve to be called out for this. So I'm going

00:02:45.880 to play you a little montage of President Trump's speech at NATO. It talks about how Europe's not

00:02:51.020 heading in the right direction, talks about Greenland, and sort of the elephant in the room

00:02:54.700 that everybody is nervous and handling about. Well, Trump, will he, won't he actually use military force

00:02:59.180 to take and acquire Greenland? Well, he does rule that out. I think this is all part of the art of the

00:03:03.920 deal, by the way. You go in, these leaders need to read the art of the deal, right? Trump is a pretty

00:03:08.560 straightforward, pretty simple man. He has laid out his playbook, like 30 years ago, and he uses it over

00:03:14.380 and over again. You go into the room, you make the most outrageous demand possible, you confuse

00:03:19.160 everyone, you double down on it. And then, you know, by the time you kind of like, walk it back a little

00:03:24.300 bit, sound more reasonable, you have the people halfway towards your negotiation, and you get what you

00:03:28.780 want, which is, I think, exactly what Trump does. He plays everybody over and over again, and it's pretty

00:03:33.220 predictable what he's going to do, because he's done it so many times. And yet, they always fall

00:03:37.140 for it. They always fall for it. So anyway, here is Trump scolding Europe, as they deserve to,

00:03:42.960 and talking about Greenland and making it clear that it's not about the precious minerals. It's

00:03:48.420 not an economic expansion that he wants Greenland. It's for national security. It's because of China 0.94

00:03:54.180 and Russia and their activities in the Arctic. So here, let's play this clip of President Trump at Davos.

00:03:59.460 This enormous, unsecured island is actually part of North America, on the northern frontier of the

00:04:06.620 western hemisphere. That's our territory. It is therefore a core national security interest of the

00:04:13.700 United States of America. And in fact, it's been our policy for hundreds of years to prevent outside 1.00

00:04:19.580 threats from entering our hemisphere. And we've done it very successfully. We've never been stronger

00:04:25.560 than we are now. It's the United States alone that can protect this giant mass of land, this giant

00:04:31.920 piece of ice, develop it and improve it and make it so that it's good for Europe and safe for Europe

00:04:38.520 and good for us. And that's the reason I'm seeking immediate negotiations to once again discuss the

00:04:44.640 acquisition of Greenland by the United States. We probably won't get anything unless I decide to use

00:04:50.440 excessive strength and force where we would be, frankly, unstoppable. But I won't do that.

00:05:00.120 Okay? Now everyone's saying, oh, good. That's probably the biggest statement I made because people thought I would use force.

00:05:07.560 I don't have to use force. I don't want to use force. I won't use force. But the problem with NATO is that

00:05:12.440 we'll be there for them 100 percent. But I'm not sure that they'd be there for us if we gave them the call.

00:05:23.480 Gentlemen, we are being attacked. We're under attack by such and such a nation. I know them all very well.

00:05:30.620 I'm not sure that they'd be there. I know we'd be there for them. I don't know that they'd be there for us.

00:05:35.540 And honestly, if you can't enjoy President Trump for his sense of humor and his delivery and his

00:05:39.540 style, I can't fix that for you. I think you either find Trump to be charming and amusing,

00:05:44.580 which I happen to find him, or you just loathe him and hate him, which is unfortunately, I think

00:05:48.900 the majority of Canadians just hate him so much. They're so deranged that they can't actually listen

00:05:53.700 to what he's saying when he makes good points. Well, it wasn't just Europe that he was scolding and

00:05:58.220 pointing out. He also pointed his ire at Mark Carney, Prime Minister Mark Carney, talking about Canada,

00:06:03.780 talking about a lot of the freebies that we get. Of course, we free ride off of the United States

00:06:07.780 from a military and security perspective. Of course we do. We do it from an economic perspective

00:06:11.820 as well. And you know what Trump notices when Cardi gets up there and cozies up with China, 0.76

00:06:17.500 when he makes deals with China, when he talks about how we can't trust Americans anymore and we have to

00:06:21.700 stand our own, sort of bashing the Americans just for fun, for sports, like what liberal Canadians

00:06:28.160 do, have always done. Trump notices it, and this is what he had to say about Canada.

00:06:34.740 Going to be defending Canada. Canada gets a lot of freebies from us, by the way,

00:06:40.180 they should be grateful also, but they're not. I watched your Prime Minister yesterday,

00:06:44.740 he wasn't so grateful. They should be grateful to us. Canada. Canada lives because of the United States.

00:06:52.340 Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements. Fact check, true. Yes, Canada lives because

00:06:59.220 of the United States. Canada's current military spending is $62 billion after a $9.3 billion boost

00:07:05.140 to meet the 2% GDP target, but is still $50 billion short of the new 3.5% target. And so,

00:07:13.700 you know what, we saw a lot of the Laurentian elites, the usual suspects, hand-wringing and

00:07:18.740 hyperventilating on social media. People like writers in the Globe and Mail and the CBC worried

00:07:24.340 about, will Trump actually have military intervention into Greenland? What would happen?

00:07:29.060 The Globe and Mail had a article, like mapping out, a hypothetical mapping out of an Arctic strategy

00:07:35.140 for Canada's military to defend Greenland. Just total fever dreams here. The fact that, what,

00:07:40.500 we're going to engage in war against the Americans over Greenland and that we would have any chance. 0.59

00:07:45.060 That is so absurd, so ridiculous. They love to bash Trump. They love to use him sort of as a punching

00:07:51.540 bag to insult all Americans and all conservatives for that matter. But it turns out that Trump was

00:07:58.980 actually kind of vindicated and we saw this from NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. He had several

00:08:06.020 clips that were circulating on social media and he is actually, says that he's in strong agreement

00:08:10.820 with President Trump. He says that Trump is right to be worried about Greenland, that we all should

00:08:15.620 be worried about the threat to Greenland. Let's play this clip. So, statements for me will not add

00:08:20.740 anything here. And when it comes to the Arctic, I think President Trump is right. Other leaders in

00:08:24.820 NATO are right. We need to defend the Arctic. We know that these sea lanes are opening up. We know

00:08:30.020 that China and Russia are increasingly active in the Arctic. There are eight countries bordering on

00:08:35.780 the Arctic. Seven are a member of NATO. That's Finland and Sweden and Norway and Denmark, Iceland,

00:08:41.940 Canada and the US. And there's only one country bordering on the Arctic outside NATO and that's Russia.

00:08:47.380 And I would argue there is a ninth country, which is China, which is increasingly active in the

00:08:52.820 Arctic region. So, President Trump and other leaders are right. We have to do more there. We

00:08:56.820 have to protect the Arctic against Russian and Chinese influences. That's exactly what NATO

00:09:02.340 ambassadors decided to do in September. We are working on that, making sure that collectively

00:09:07.140 will we defend the Arctic region. And that's exactly right. So, Trump got what he wanted,

00:09:12.020 which is for there to be more attention paid to the threats from Russia and China in Greenland.

00:09:16.980 That's the whole point of this. He wants the NATO countries to increase their military spending

00:09:21.940 so that they can meet the need and meet the demand that is happening in the world

00:09:25.540 around us. Trump put out a true social sort of talking about this. He said, based upon

00:09:29.860 a very productive meeting that I've had with Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte,

00:09:33.620 we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and in fact,

00:09:37.140 the entire Arctic region. The solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United

00:09:41.860 States of America and all NATO nations. Based upon the understanding, I will not be imposing the

00:09:46.820 tariffs that we scheduled to go into effect on Feb 1. Additional discussions are being held

00:09:52.100 concerning the Golden Dome as it pertains to Greenland. Further information will be made

00:09:56.740 available as discussions progress. So basically, he's just saying, you know, this is what we wanted.

00:10:01.940 We got what we wanted. We're not going to do the tariffs. We want to work together. We want everybody

00:10:05.540 to increase their NATO spending. We don't want to be responsible for being the global policeman and

00:10:10.660 global security guard forever. And everybody needs to up their own responsibility. So Europeans are now 1.00

00:10:16.340 fully committed to NATO, according to Rutte, noting that spending targets have been met. So all 32

00:10:22.260 NATO members projected to meet the 2% target in 2026, which is a huge increase to what it was prior

00:10:27.700 to Trump making this issue front and center for himself. But he's saying that now 2% is insufficient.

00:10:33.620 New NATO target for defense spending is 5%, 1.5% for infrastructure, 3.5% for military. So like I

00:10:40.660 said, Canada still needs to up their military spending by approximately $50 billion to meet

00:10:46.100 this. I have another clip of Mark Rutte thanking Trump. This is him in conversation with Trump and

00:10:51.940 actually thanking him for bringing this issue to the forefront. Let's play the clip.

00:10:55.700 I want to thank you again for what you did since coming in, in January, Trump 47,

00:11:02.340 basically getting the Europeans and Canada to really step up. And that led to the enormous

00:11:06.420 success we had in The Hague with the 5%, which is crucial to defend ourselves and to also equalize 0.94

00:11:12.660 with what the US is paying. This was a problem already there since Eisenhower. I always tell

00:11:17.300 the Europeans, you are completely committed to NATO, but there is also that one irritant,

00:11:21.460 and it is this factor that the Europeans were not paying the same as the US was paying. And we solved

00:11:26.500 it, and this is crucial also because we need the money to protect ourselves. There's one thing I heard

00:11:30.900 you say yesterday and today, you are not absolutely sure that the Europeans would come to the rescue of

00:11:36.180 the US if you will be attacked. Let me tell you, they will. And they did in Afghanistan, 0.99

00:11:41.540 as you know, for every American who paid the ultimate, for every two Americans who paid the

00:11:47.700 ultimate price price, there was one soldier from another NATO country who did not come back to his

00:11:53.220 family, from the Netherlands, from Denmark, particularly for other countries. So you can be assured,

00:11:58.420 absolutely, if ever the US would be under attack, your allies will be with you. Absolutely, there's an

00:12:04.260 absolute guarantee. I really want to tell you this because this is important. It pains me

00:12:08.100 if you think it is not. And under your leadership, this alliance is stronger than ever.

00:12:12.820 Thank you very much. It's a great compliment.

00:12:15.540 All right. So aside from the main stage, there are other important things happening in Davos and in

00:12:20.820 Switzerland at the WEF this year. One of them is the leaders of our country that were never properly

00:12:26.900 held accountable, the people that got away with absolute murder in our country, and now they're

00:12:31.220 walking free and they've personally enriched themselves or living great happy lives. Well,

00:12:35.300 they need to be held accountable. And we saw some small dose of accountability on the streets here.

00:12:40.580 So I want to play this incredible clip. This is Callum Smiles, who is a British reporter and

00:12:46.020 journalist, formerly worked with Rebel, now with an outlet called Vox Populi. And he confronts Justin

00:12:51.700 Trudeau. And let me just say, we're all Callum in this clip, hearing these questions asked to our

00:12:56.500 former prime minister, watching him smirk about it, right? These are things that the Canadian legacy

00:13:00.100 media would never ask him. I'm talking about vaccine injuries, vaccine mandates, the forced

00:13:04.980 lockdowns during the COVID era. Looking back in retrospect, totally insane. You know, we were

00:13:10.820 one of the few Ellis and View voices at the time, at the time of it all, saying this is totally wrong

00:13:14.580 and totally insane and totally an affront on civil liberties. Now, in retrospect, I think a lot more

00:13:19.140 people have come around to that perspective. So here is Callum grilling our former prime minister.

00:13:24.260 And no, Trudeau doesn't take accountability. Yes, it is infuriating to watch him smirk like this.

00:13:29.780 But I will just say, it is good that he has asked these questions, that he's finally hearing

00:13:34.340 from somebody who is not on his payroll when it comes to journalism. So good for Callum Smiles. Let's

00:13:39.940 play that clip.

00:13:41.140 Why are you pushing disinformation the way you have?

00:13:52.100 What is disinformation? What, that people have died?

00:13:55.140 Why are you pushing people in Canada to vaccinate the COVID vaccine?

00:13:58.660 But that's not misinformation. My old cameraman's,

00:14:01.380 my old cameraman's mother actually, you pushed him into jail. 1.00

00:14:04.660 My old cameraman's mother actually died after complications from the COVID vaccine.

00:14:09.780 So is that misinformation? Oh, now you're laughing.

00:14:14.580 So Justin Trudeau doesn't know how to handle a real question from a real reporter. We showed you

00:14:18.740 on the show yesterday, Ezra Levant from The Rebel also confronted Justin Trudeau. Justin Trudeau,

00:14:24.260 you know, he knows Ezra. He knows who he is. And so he can go back to his regular, like,

00:14:28.340 you know, oh, Ezra, you're my old friend, whatever. This is all over now. And also doing

00:14:34.180 what he does. You push misinformation. You're liars. You guys are responsible for the erosion

00:14:38.580 of trust in institutions in Canada and all that nonsense. But when it comes to a foreign journalist,

00:14:42.980 like we saw here, Trudeau doesn't really know how to handle it. He doesn't really have a response.

00:14:46.420 He tries to do the old, oh, you're pushing disinformation. That's just not going to hold anymore.

00:14:51.220 He actually didn't have anything. And he pretended to see a friend on the street

00:14:54.900 and started like laughing it up with this guy. Even though if you watch the full interaction,

00:14:59.620 you can see that he doesn't actually know him. He doesn't like it's a total stranger,

00:15:02.660 but Trudeau is just always acting, always playing a game. Totally. Honestly, Justin Trudeau deserves

00:15:08.500 for that to happen to him every single day of his life. I wish that it would. I wish that more

00:15:13.380 people would confront him over his atrocious record. But it was quite satisfying to just see that one.

00:15:18.820 Something else that happened, again, our friend Ezra Levant over in Davos doing

00:15:23.140 Yeoman's work over there, and he confronted Chrystia Freeland. This one was very satisfying,

00:15:28.180 asking her in person about her job with the Ukrainian government. She was a sitting MP,

00:15:34.980 and then all of a sudden it was announced by the leader of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky,

00:15:39.780 that she's going to be his advisor. It's like, wait a minute, why could a sitting MP be an advisor to

00:15:44.020 a foreign government? It makes no sense. But Chrystia Freeland has always described herself as a Ukrainian

00:15:47.940 nationalist. Sure, she was born in Canada, but I think she sees herself as a Ukrainian.

00:15:52.260 And that is always her support. So here is Ezra grilling her. It's actually remarkable to see how

00:15:57.860 quickly she falls apart. She unravels. It almost sounds like she's breaking down tears. It's almost

00:16:01.700 hard to watch. I texted this to Ezra. It really seems like she was just really upset and almost in

00:16:08.100 tears over having a little bit of accountability, having a real journalist ask a real question.

00:16:13.060 Let's play this clip. Why didn't you disclose your job offer from Ukraine to the conflict

00:16:19.220 of ethics commissioner within seven days as required? Hi, nice to see you. I disclosed it

00:16:27.460 to the ethics commissioner immediately. Are you sure about that? Because you didn't tell the

00:16:31.780 prime minister for two days. I told the prime minister as soon as I spoke to him,

00:16:36.260 as soon as I could speak to him. Why did you keep it secret from the public though,

00:16:40.180 until the president of Ukraine tweeted it out? It wasn't finalized. Are you sure it wasn't because

00:16:46.500 you guys were shipping two and a half billion dollars out and it would be odd to have you on

00:16:50.260 both sides of the deal? That was a decision of the prime minister. And let me just say,

00:16:57.780 I think Canada should be proud to support Ukraine. And I don't think that's the question. You were on

00:17:06.180 both sides of the deal is the question. I wasn't on both sides of the deal. I actually wasn't at that

00:17:10.260 meeting with the prime minister. But in any event, let me be very clear. Ukraine is fighting for

00:17:18.420 Canada's security and for Canada's democracy. No one's disagreeing with that. So pathetic excuse for

00:17:26.180 a leader, Chrystia Freeland, so cringe. Just everything about her is just, you know, good riddance. Glad 0.92

00:17:31.540 she's gone. Well, it wasn't just Ezra asking questions. His video videographer, Lincoln Jay,

00:17:36.020 also jumped in asking her about her record of freezing bank accounts during the trucker convoy.

00:17:40.580 As you know, we reported on the show that that decision to use the Emergency Act was found by a

00:17:45.140 federal court in 2024 to be unreasonable and counter to the constitution of Canada. That was upheld last

00:17:51.140 week by a federal appeals court. So two federal courts have now ruled that what they did during the

00:17:56.340 freedom convoy, what they did to truckers, what they did to locking up bank accounts,

00:18:00.180 was counter to our constitution. Chrystia Freeland being asked about that here by Rebel News' Lincoln

00:18:05.780 Jay. And I think you should be ashamed of yourself. For what? For doing Putin's work.

00:18:10.820 You froze Canadians' bank accounts. She just goes back to the same stale. Like,

00:18:16.260 oh, if you're asking me tough questions, you must be a Russian stude. You must be working for Putin. 0.75

00:18:20.820 Shame on you. Like, what are you even talking about, lady? Okay, like no one's buying your BS anymore. 1.00

00:18:25.460 Uh, good riddance to her and good for the rebel for holding her accountable and at least asking

00:18:30.740 her those tough questions. Okay, I want to move on. I think Ontario Premier Doug Ford's having a little

00:18:35.460 bit of buyer's remorse for endorsing the Liberals and cozying up with Liberal leader Mark Carney.

00:18:40.580 I'm talking about this announcement that was made last week that Canada and China were going to be

00:18:44.900 striking a new friendship, striking a new trade deal. And that include Canada importing some 50,000

00:18:49.780 electric vehicles, which of course goes counter to so much of our own industrial policy. So I'm going to go over

00:18:54.180 that a little bit right now. So we'll take you back to December 2023, when the federal government's

00:18:58.740 zero emission vehicle mandate called to ban the sale of new gas and diesel vehicles by 2023.

00:19:04.740 This is just so unbelievable. The fact that this is still on the books is outrageous, but they are

00:19:08.740 looking for a national target of 100% zero emission vehicle sales. All the gas guzzling cars off the road,

00:19:15.620 according to the liberal utopians running our government. In June 2025, Conservative MPs tried to

00:19:22.420 overturned the ban, and they lost a vote in the House 194 to 141, with only opposition support for

00:19:30.500 the bill. Conservative MP Melissa Lansman said at the time, nobody is denying people the choice to drive

00:19:35.220 an electric vehicle. There's nothing wrong with that. What's wrong is the government mandating that

00:19:39.460 everybody drive an electric car. Obviously, it doesn't really work in Canada in our cold weather.

00:19:43.540 The electric charge just doesn't work as it should. So in early 2025, EVs made up only 9.7% of new car

00:19:50.980 sales as Canadian interest in buying them fell from 51% in 2022 down to 36% due to the cost and the

00:19:59.620 cold weather performance and range concerns. Since 2019, according to Epoch Times, Canada has sold or

00:20:05.620 leased 546,000 EVs, according to the Department of Transportation nationwide. The cost for charging

00:20:13.540 infrastructure, if we wanted to eliminate gas stations, which we would have to do by 2035,

00:20:20.100 if we wanted to meet this ridiculous goal, it would cost us some $30 billion to build the national

00:20:25.540 infrastructure for charging stations. That just doesn't make any sense, folks. This is like

00:20:30.660 utopian thinking. This is exactly what President Trump and his Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnant,

00:20:36.500 came in and saying globalization failed. This whole idea of net zero is just totally insane, right? Canada

00:20:42.580 is sitting on one of the largest proven reserves of oil and gas in the world, and rather than focusing on

00:20:47.860 that, using it as our superpower and our super strength, we're trying to ban it and trying to

00:20:52.020 create some new energy that's bankrupting us or at least costing us lots and lots of money.

00:20:56.180 According to PBO, projections expect that 33,900 more standard charging ports will be needed by 2030,

00:21:03.780 just to keep up with the demand. This is all just not good for our economy. This is not what we should be

00:21:10.260 focusing on. So bring you up to speed to January 2026, enter China. Canada has now signed that trade

00:21:16.180 deal, allowing up to 49,000 Chinese EVs into the country. Well, Ontario is not happy about it,

00:21:23.140 right? We're building our own. We've spent all of this money creating the infrastructure to build our

00:21:28.100 own electric vehicles and to try to have those reach the Canadian market. And all of a sudden,

00:21:32.100 we're just going to get flooded with Chinese electric vehicles. I think Doug Ford is finally

00:21:36.500 starting to see the light. So here he was yesterday on Wednesday saying that there is a risk

00:21:42.260 that Carney is creating in this deal. It's a risk for Ontario and our manufacturing bases. Play that clip.

00:21:49.540 Last week, Prime Minister Carney announced a deal with China that will allow thousands of cheap

00:21:56.100 made-in-China electric vehicles into Canada's market. I've been clear about my concerns with this deal

00:22:03.300 by opening up our country to a flood of cheap made-in-China vehicles. The federal government

00:22:10.340 is asking Canadian autoworkers to compete on unfair ground. We've seen what happens when cheap Chinese 1.00

00:22:18.340 vehicles enter Western markets. Factories have closed. Workers have lost their jobs. That's the risk

00:22:26.180 this deal is creating right here in Ontario. In exchange for opening Canada up to this flood of

00:22:35.060 cheap Chinese vehicles, the federal government got nothing, absolutely nothing in return for Canadian

00:22:42.340 autoworkers. So, well, Doug Ford, that's kind of what you get for climbing into bed with the Liberals for

00:22:48.660 endorsing Mark Carney and stabbing Pierre Polyev in the back during the last election, chickens coming home to

00:22:55.060 roost and all of that. Justin Trudeau and Doug Ford collaborated to provide $57 billion in electric

00:23:01.460 vehicle manufacturing subsidies to automakers, including Volkswagen, Solantis, Hondas, and General

00:23:07.220 Motors, according to The Hub. According to economist Jack Mintz, $35 billion in handouts to Volkswagen,

00:23:13.380 Solantis, and Norfolk amount to $4 million for every hypothetical job created. And then, of course,

00:23:19.620 Norfolk has since declared bankruptcy in Sweden and Solantis has moved its production

00:23:23.940 out of Canada in the US. Hmm, maybe this isn't a very good industrial policy. Maybe it's not the

00:23:28.500 best idea to subsidize, to this extent, a sort of unproven and untested and, frankly, unwanted piece

00:23:35.380 of technology, while at the same time keeping our oil on the ground and refusing to build pipelines.

00:23:40.420 Everything wrong with the Canadian economy. Again, it all traces back to the ideology of these leftist,

00:23:47.300 elite, globalists, people like Mark Carney and Net Zero. This is just totally, totally the wrong

00:23:53.220 direction. And I think that we would all be wise to listen to what the Trump administration is saying.

00:23:58.420 And again, stop shooting ourselves in the foot when it comes to our economy, when it comes to our

00:24:03.140 future. Okay, and finally, I want to end the show on a bit of a lighter note. This is something we can

00:24:07.300 all get behind. You know, we all hear these ridiculous land acknowledgements all the time,

00:24:11.620 whether you're, you know, hearing them on the news and politicians like to say them at the start of

00:24:16.260 every speech. Any sort of left of center politician loves to start by sort of making this land

00:24:21.300 acknowledgement. I was just out in Vancouver over Christmas holiday. I couldn't believe how often

00:24:24.660 I heard them. Even at like Science World, they were doing presentations and they'd start by basically

00:24:28.980 saying that Canada is an illegitimate country and that it's stolen and that land actually belongs to

00:24:32.740 somebody else. Total nonsense. You should totally reject these when you hear them. I don't like them

00:24:37.540 at all. But here in Toronto, we had a taxpayer basically mocking the city government and saying,

00:24:44.020 before I start with my presentation here, I want to acknowledge the taxpayers of this city.

00:24:49.780 We should all stop and remember that our governments are funded by taxpayers, funded by hardworking

00:24:55.140 citizens, by people like you and I who pay our taxes, give away some 50% of the money that we earn

00:25:00.740 to fund governments. So rather than focusing on bashing Canada and saying it's illegitimate at the

00:25:06.020 start of like every government meeting, why don't we start and just take a minute to thank the taxpayers

00:25:10.820 for funding the salaries of all the people who work in government. Let's play this clip.

00:25:14.500 I'd like to start my deputation in a good way by acknowledging the people who fund this municipal

00:25:19.700 enterprise, the Toronto taxpayer. Let's reflect and remember that every word spoken in this chamber,

00:25:24.820 every light bulb and every salary paid, including those of city councillors, is funded almost entirely

00:25:30.340 by the hard work and earnings of taxpayers and property owners. Nearly all of the city's $18.9 billion

00:25:37.060 budget comes directly from them. We acknowledge that while taxpayers and property owners have endured

00:25:42.980 an almost 20% increase in the last three years, only a small and insulated group decides how much of

00:25:48.580 their income is expropriated to sustain a burgeoning municipal bureaucracy that continues to grow

00:25:54.420 regardless of outcomes and results. We pay respect to those taxpayers because without them, this institution

00:26:01.380 could not indulge in ideological excesses like renaming streets and public squares, painting roads

00:26:07.140 with inferior and environmentally damaging red paint, nor fund harm reduction programs that result in a steady

00:26:13.140 stream of drug paraphernalia littering our streets, sidewalks, parks and playgrounds.

00:26:17.540 In this spirit of acknowledgement and with an eye to the future, we recognize the Toronto taxpayer

00:26:23.700 and revere their tolerance for being taxed. I've heard enough. I want that guy to be mayor.

00:26:28.900 I don't know who he is, but I agree with every word he said there. That guy should be mayor of

00:26:32.500 Toronto. Enough with the leftists, enough with people like Olivia Chow. We should remember where

00:26:38.020 the money comes from. All right, folks, this is all the time we have for today. Thank you so much for

00:26:40.660 tuning in. We'll be back in soon. I'm Candace Malcolm. This is the Candace Malcolm Show. Thank you and God bless.

00:26:47.540 Thank you.
