Juno News - Vancouver’s insane new “decolonized” street name + new census questions on sexual orientation

00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Candice Malcolm and this is The Candice Malcolm Show. We have a great episode for you

00:00:05.880 folks, but before we get into the content of the show, I have some programming notes for you about

00:00:09.840 what is going on here at Juno News. Thanks to basically the huge support from our audience,

00:00:14.900 we are growing incredibly fast and we want to keep up with the demand for our content and for

00:00:19.420 our podcast. We're introducing new talent and new shows here on the network. Starting tomorrow,

00:00:24.520 we will have a new show called The Crime Report with Ron Chisner. You may recognize that name.

00:00:29.400 He was a conservative candidate in Oakville in the last election, a former police officer. He is

00:00:34.840 also a radio host, a really interesting person. He is going to be doing a weekly show talking about

00:00:40.700 the out of control crime in the GTA and all over the country. So really looking forward to that.

00:00:46.560 We also have Disrupted with Melanie Bennett. Melanie is an investigative journalist with

00:00:50.600 True North. She does deep dives into the culture wars in Canada. She exposes the absolutely out of 0.89

00:00:56.540 control woke ideology that is taking over our schools. Even in supposedly conservative Ontario,

00:01:01.660 we have a progressive conservative government. And yet under that government, we have seen just

00:01:06.040 an absolute out of control woke ideology take over our schools. And we're going to continue with

00:01:11.420 the Monday show with Chris Sims. Chris Sims is the Alberta director of the Canadian Taxpayers

00:01:16.040 Federation. She's been filling in for me on Mondays. And we're going to continue that throughout

00:01:20.680 the summer, let me spend more time focusing on growing the business. And of course, spending time

00:01:25.480 with my children for young children, like to spend as much time with them, especially in the summer

00:01:29.300 months. So Chris is going to be filling in for me on Mondays. And Candace Malcolm show will be

00:01:33.880 Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday for the rest of the summer folks. And I'm really excited. We have a new

00:01:39.200 interview that is about to drop later today with our own Kian Bexty. He sat down with Alberta Premier,

00:01:45.600 Danielle Smith, for a one-on-one interview. It's going to be incredible. So you're going to want to

00:01:52.100 check out JunoNews.com later today for that exclusive. We have a little preview of that. So let's play

00:01:58.040 that clip. So I think that that one year period, instead of a normal amount of immigration and

00:02:04.200 newcomers arriving, which would be about 1% of the population, so maybe around 400,000 people a year,

00:02:10.520 at 1.8 million. And you've seen the result of it. The reason why housing prices have spiked,

00:02:17.340 why food affordability has spiked, why affordability on every front has spiked,

00:02:22.000 is just because if you have too many people chasing too few jobs, too few homes, and too little

00:02:30.200 employment, you're just going to end up causing problems. So the federal government blew it.

00:02:35.460 And it's such a tragedy.

00:02:37.420 Wow, that is going to be a great interview. Definitely check that out at JunoNews.com. That

00:02:41.280 is for premium subscribers. Okay, let's get to today's show. I'm really pleased to be joined by

00:02:45.980 one of my favorite content creators online, a Canadian, former Canadian lawyer turned political

00:02:50.620 commentator. He hosts huge live streams over on Rumble. I'm talking about David Frye, who goes by

00:02:56.620 Viva Frye online. Viva, welcome to Juno News, Candace Belkin Show. Great to have you on.

00:03:01.220 Thank you for having me.

00:03:02.240 You have escaped. You're in the free state of Florida. You've escaped Canada, but you still

00:03:10.400 follow what's happening up here. And I want to ask you, you know, I actually saw this story

00:03:15.700 on the Daily Wire. Matt Walsh covered it. And it's not even surprising at this point,

00:03:20.920 because this stuff happens all the time. But it is just one of those outrageous examples. So this was

00:03:25.640 the story out of Vancouver earlier this month, Vancouver's Trutch Street to be renamed as something

00:03:33.280 totally unpronounceable. Okay, so that the way that they pronounce it is Musqueam View. So there's

00:03:38.100 a Musqueam tribe and the name is now called Musqueam View. But rather than just writing that word,

00:03:43.600 Musqueam View, which is sort of pronounceable, they decide to use this ridiculous phonetic alphabet

00:03:49.500 that they use. It's not phonetic at all, that has new symbols that is just totally confusing. Okay,

00:03:54.920 so here is what that looks like. There is a report from Global News covering this. So here is a segment

00:04:03.840 from reporter Paul Johnson explaining that they just couldn't call it Trutch Street anymore because

00:04:08.960 the person that's named after Joseph Trutch was apparently just super racist. Let's play that clip.

00:04:13.780 The street formerly known as Trutch had been named after BC's first lieutenant governor,

00:04:19.360 whose views and policies about First Nations people are now recognized as racist and wrong.

00:04:25.840 I'm sorry, I don't mean to laugh. They're now recognized as racist and wrong.

00:04:31.120 Are you going to show? We'll see what it's spelled like. I saw this and I also thought it was a joke. I

00:04:36.440 thought it was the Babylon Bee that A, it's unpronounceable. B, it's unspellable.

00:04:43.220 C, it's impractical. D, it's utterly trivial. And it's the virtue signaling politics that have,

00:04:50.280 you know, invaded not just Canada, but the States as well. It's idiotic, like just superficial 1.00

00:04:58.020 paying tribute to the people that you've been devastating for the last however many hundreds 1.00

00:05:02.120 of years to the extent that they believe that. And this is how you pay homage to your abuse of the

00:05:06.780 natives in Canada. Name a street after them, unspellable. That's only going to cause people to 1.00

00:05:11.900 get angry every time they go by that street. It's, uh, it's par for the course, but it's almost as

00:05:16.740 vapid as the land recognitions that they make these people do. Like they're, you know, being held

00:05:21.680 hostage land recognitions before you give a speech somewhere to acknowledge that you're on unseated

00:05:29.380 land that you, by your own rationale, stole from the people who you are now paying tribute to and

00:05:33.860 thanking them for the stolen land. It's, it's insanity.

00:05:35.980 Right. And if they actually truly believed any of this Viva, why won't they give it back? Right?

00:05:40.760 Like it's one thing for lefty academics at the university of British Columbia to say, look,

00:05:44.920 we don't agree that this land belongs to Canada. We think it should be part of some other tribe, 0.85

00:05:49.900 whatever. Okay. They're academics. They can say that if they want. It's quite another thing when

00:05:53.440 you have King Charles or Mark Carney, and they both did that earlier this year, they both frequently do

00:05:58.640 it in Canada, um, saying that it's unseated land because if they truly believed that it was unseated,

00:06:03.380 they actually have the power and the ability to give back. But of course they won't because it's

00:06:07.400 all just cosplaying, right? It's, it's all just make believe, making them feel better,

00:06:11.940 virtue signaling, the height of it. I mean, this is unbelievable to me. So the Vancouver city council

00:06:16.060 voted unanimously to change the street name and remove the word trutch, getting rid of this

00:06:22.220 colonial leader that they, we all agree has racist views. I'm sorry, like point to anybody in,

00:06:27.540 in 1900 that had views that we don't consider racist today, right? Like the society had different views

00:06:32.560 back then. I'm sure what the native leaders were saying about the white Canadians was also quite

00:06:36.360 racist, but we don't dwell on that. We only look at it the other way around. And so we've decided

00:06:40.280 that the racist, we can't have that name anymore. I mean, like, when does this madness end? Right.

00:06:45.020 And if there isn't like a single voice of reason on the Vancouver city council, like,

00:06:49.320 like you're, you're saying like, if, if, if the council is unanimously voting to change,

00:06:54.320 like how are they representing the views of Canadians? Because Canadians don't unanimously

00:06:57.580 support this kind of stuff, even in their own news report. I'll play this bit. A second segment

00:07:03.060 from the global news report, uh, talking about how the residents don't really like this, right?

00:07:07.380 They don't like having a virtue signaling street name that nobody can pronounce. And this is kind

00:07:13.160 of amusing this clip. Uh, but also apparently some of the other tribes in Vancouver also don't like

00:07:18.380 the name change because they weren't consulted. They only went to one tribe apparently. And so the

00:07:22.780 other tribes are not happy. Let's play that clip. About half the kids residents we spoke with told us

00:07:27.420 they support the change. Others though said they were frustrated at the prospect of updating IDs

00:07:33.340 and documents in an alphabet they don't know. And the neighboring Squamish nation weighed in

00:07:38.880 saying they weren't properly consulted. Weren't properly consulted, Eva. So, I mean,

00:07:43.780 this is kind of this, the funny idea, right? Like, even if you buy into this idea that Canada is

00:07:48.000 somehow illegitimate and that the land actually belongs to the tribes who were here before the

00:07:52.540 European settlers came, like which, which tribe, right? Because the tribes were warring tribes, 0.93

00:07:57.420 they were nomadic. Uh, something like over a hundred percent of British Columbia is claimed

00:08:01.500 by various tribes. A lot of them overlap. I think there are six different tribes that claim

00:08:06.060 Vancouver to be part of their traditional territory, right? And so like, which tribe are we naming them

00:08:11.260 after? At what point in history are we going back to? Because you're never going to satisfy everybody

00:08:15.340 if you play this game. Well, you know, and you mentioned I'm, I'm, I'm a former Canadian litigator,

00:08:19.580 but I'm still Canadian, a former litigator. There's a concept in law, like, you can't apply criminal law

00:08:25.180 ex post facto. And so I have a theory like you're applying morality to the extent it's even modern

00:08:30.940 morality in an ex post facto way that you cannot simply do. And any more than in a hundred years

00:08:36.220 from now, they're going to be renaming these streets and damning everybody who had anything

00:08:40.540 to do with renaming them because you can't apply current standards, current moral norms to life 200

00:08:46.780 years ago, period. It's unfair to do it. It's dishonest to do it. And so in law, you know,

00:08:52.540 you can't try someone in the past for a new crime today, even if we accept that it's law today,

00:08:57.340 we're doing that basically ideologically now to historical figures. But the, the most hilarious

00:09:01.980 thing is, you know, there's always the joke that DEI leads to D I E and we're going to get to the

00:09:08.220 point where like, someone's going to have a fire on Musquise Scott view street, and they're not going

00:09:11.820 to know how to get there. And then it's going to turn into like, well, where are you? It's that street,

00:09:15.580 the native street. And then it's going to turn into like even more modern day racism and discrimination

00:09:19.900 because people are going to say, geez, Louise, for me to cater to the historical wrongs that Canada

00:09:24.380 might've carried out against the indigenous. Now we've got to have these absolute unworkable

00:09:28.860 modern day solutions. Imagine you have a number of streets like this and they become unnavigable,

00:09:34.620 almost as stupid as in the name of equality. We're going to name each street, the same name. 0.98

00:09:38.380 And then the policemen don't know which house to go to when it's burning down. So it's absolutely

00:09:43.100 idiotic, stupid, juvenile policy that's, that might very well have real world consequences 1.00

00:09:49.500 on a, you know, emergency basis. But from a perspective of even quelling racial divide, 1.00

00:09:56.060 quelling historical wrongs, you're just going to make modern day society angry and resentful

00:10:00.780 at natives to the extent that they even asked for this. I have a feeling not to be mean,

00:10:04.620 it was a bunch of liberal women. I'm going to be totally rude about this liberal women who are 1.00

00:10:10.380 saying, fly the menstrual equity flag in Victoria. And this is how we thank them for the years of,

00:10:15.820 of, of historical abuse. Right. Well, I mean, I'm sure,

00:10:18.860 I'm sure that's right. And even, this is interesting. So Vancouver Sun had a story,

00:10:22.860 uh, saying Vancouver's Trutch Street is now unpronounceable word, uh, and not everyone's happy.

00:10:27.660 And so they interview, uh, local resident, Gail Langton, who said that she and her neighbors are in

00:10:32.700 full agreement of getting rid of the Trutch name, given its terrible history. Um, and they support the name 1.00

00:10:37.660 that they belonged, that they believed was coming, which was Musqueam view, but they wanted it spelt

00:10:42.220 using the Latin alphabet. And the people with the affected addresses were surprised last week when

00:10:48.300 this name ceremony happened and they, and they pulled off this, the, the sign that's just total

00:10:53.340 nonsense. And that, of course, that puts people at risk. Uh, likewise, uh, Jamie Sarkonok had a, uh,

00:11:00.140 column in the national post saying that literally this puts people's lives at risk, making the point

00:11:04.780 that you just made their Viva emergency services have already expressed their concerns with the

00:11:09.020 new name, getting in the way of saving lives largely because 911 colors might not be able to

00:11:13.340 pronounce it. Right. And, and, and, and people who live in this area, this is Kitsilano. So I grew up

00:11:17.420 nearby, actually like one block over from Trutch is Blenheim. That's the street I grew up on,

00:11:21.740 but I grew up on the other side of 16th. So up in Kerrisdale and Trutch doesn't go through. So I,

00:11:26.780 close by where, where this was affected and, you know, this is a liberal population, right? This is a very

00:11:31.820 kind of, they're, they're, they're, they're politically correct and woke. And they probably

00:11:36.540 really like in earnest want to be able to pronounce this word. They'll probably be practicing it

00:11:41.260 just in case. Uh, but yes, in an emergency, if something's happening and you need the police to

00:11:45.580 get there, you'll probably just end up saying Trutch street, just come to Trutch street because that's

00:11:49.580 what everybody has called it in Vancouver for what, like a hundred years. And yet now suddenly,

00:11:54.220 uh, we're supposed to stage it. And just in case you thought this madness was limited to liberal

00:11:58.220 Vancouver. It is not, it happened in Edmonton as well. And this actually shocked me. I was talking

00:12:02.540 to a colleague who lives in Edmonton. He told me the area that he lived in. And I, I just punched

00:12:06.460 it into Google maps because I was trying to remember exactly what part of the city it was.

00:12:10.700 And it used to be called all over. And now it has a name that's totally unpronounceable as well.

00:12:15.260 This has taken over Edmonton and they changed all the names of their words, Viva,

00:12:19.900 to, it used to just be very simple ward one, ward two, ward three. And then they just decided to

00:12:25.260 put all kinds of names again, totally unpronounceable, total nonsense to English speakers.

00:12:31.180 And what we're supposed to like, this is supposed to pay homage to indigenous. If anything, it will

00:12:36.060 either lead to your point, people kind of resenting this and saying like, what, why do we have to do

00:12:40.540 this? Making them angry at the people who are part of these tribes or kind of making it like a butt of

00:12:46.380 a joke, right? Like people mock it because it's so absurd and ridiculous. And I agree that it's, it's 0.99

00:12:51.100 sort of like woke virtue signaling white liberals trying to do something that they think is virtuous.

00:12:57.500 And it just ends up angering absolutely everybody.

00:13:01.500 They do the most meaningless gesture because they don't want to make any actual meaningful

00:13:06.460 sacrifice. Ask them to give up their homes and give them to the indigenous on their own theory, 1.00

00:13:11.500 whose land they stole. Sorry, whatever historical wrongs have been committed in the past,

00:13:16.220 you cannot write them in the present, certainly not by renaming a street or thanking people for

00:13:21.820 the land you stole from them. You have to live with history as it was written and you can't rewrite

00:13:26.140 it today. But hey, at least they'll feel good. I voted for that one and they'll have a nice glass of

00:13:31.580 Zinfandel or whatever the hell they drink while they look at this sign they can't pronounce. And

00:13:35.740 luckily, I guess, you know, checks from the government might not get to people who need them. But if it's

00:13:40.300 Kitsilano, you know, maybe there will be fewer people who are dependent on the government for

00:13:43.500 that. But it's it's it's idiocy. It's par for the course, I say, for Canada. But then, you know, 1.00

00:13:49.180 you look what's happening in New York and you got people who are equally idiotically progressive 0.97

00:13:54.460 getting the Democrat candidacy for the mayor, where you want to defund the police entirely while people 0.97

00:14:00.460 are literally being set on fire in metros. And then you want to increase 800 percent funding for

00:14:05.580 anti-Semitic, you know, think tanks. What the hell's going on? It's virtue signaling at its highest,

00:14:12.700 but also it's there's a little bit of corruption in there as well. But no, this is this is just

00:14:17.900 idiotic. I actually thought it was the Babylon Bee and they put the sign up there because people are 0.99

00:14:22.620 going to know what to do with those signs from an alphabet that is not either of the two official

00:14:26.300 languages of Canada. Well, and then we the ones in Edmonton, we're going to put them up on the screen.

00:14:31.020 But this isn't even the Latin alphabet at all. They've created a totally different alphabet.

00:14:35.020 This is like this is peak virtue signaling, Viva. This is Ward 3 became I'll give it a try here.

00:14:39.980 It's Tascawiniwak. OK. And this name Tascawiniwak is the Cree term referring to LGBTQ2S plus community.

00:14:50.140 It's rough English translation is in between people. Right. So they named a ward after

00:14:56.700 LGBT people in First Nations community. Apparently they had a word for it. I don't think I've seen any

00:15:02.940 any virtue signaling quite that strong before. Well, that's actually almost like abuse of the

00:15:09.020 minorities where you say like, oh, I'm doing this for them, but I'm using them as tools to promote my

00:15:14.540 radical gender ideology. And you can't criticize it because I'm doing it in whatever, whatever

00:15:19.500 indigenous language it's in. This is exactly the mentality of exploiting minorities and exploiting 1.00

00:15:25.660 your pet projects to promote your own agenda. It's disgusting. The worst, I mean, I'm sure you saw 0.94

00:15:30.860 it, Candice, was when they were doing the Nova Scotia update on the missing kids and you got this police

00:15:36.060 officer who looks like she's being held at gunpoint doing a land recognition in, you know, before talking

00:15:41.820 about the missing children and spending almost as much time of this press conference talking about

00:15:45.420 land recognition as the missing children. So real life consequences. But it, you know, at least they

00:15:50.540 feel virtuous while they're screwing everything up and burning the house down. Well, just speaking of

00:15:54.620 these land acknowledgements, I mean, I mentioned that we saw King Charles do it and we saw, we see

00:16:02.300 Mark Carney and his wife do it all the time. We reported this story at Juneau News when we recently

00:16:06.620 spoke to John Carpe at the Justice Center about a elected, so a parent elected on one of these local

00:16:13.980 school councils in Ancaster. She was actually removed and suspended, not because she refused

00:16:20.620 to do a land acknowledgement, but she wanted the council to take note that she didn't like them,

00:16:26.460 that there wasn't unanimous that everybody agreed to these. She just, in a very respectful way,

00:16:31.260 said she wanted to pause and just say that she didn't agree with having to do these land acknowledgements

00:16:36.460 and she literally got removed from council over that. And so the Justice Center is representing her 0.98

00:16:41.660 because in what world can you remove somebody for making a polite policy disagreement? But again,

00:16:47.740 like Canada has just taken these things so far. And I just wanted to point out one more thing,

00:16:52.380 Viva, because when it came to these, this new language that supposedly was used by the Indigenous

00:16:59.420 in Canada before the Europeans got here, right? Like I think famously, the Indigenous didn't have 1.00

00:17:03.900 written languages, right? They're oral languages. And we know we've heard so much about the fact that

00:17:07.580 their traditions are oral traditions, their history is oral traditions. And so all of a sudden,

00:17:11.340 for me, I mean, as Vancouver native, I didn't see any of this kind of stuff pop up until the 2010 Olympics.

00:17:16.940 And then all of a sudden it was like they wanted to rebrand Vancouver to put it more in touch with

00:17:20.780 like its native Indigenous roots. I think it was kind of like a branding thing to make Vancouver seem

00:17:26.380 kind of unique and different at the time. And then all of a sudden you started seeing these signs

00:17:30.140 everywhere, right? And so I looked into the history of this written language. It's called the North American

00:17:35.260 phonetic alphabet. And supposedly it was, there was some shorthand that was written by a bishop in

00:17:42.700 the 1880s. But really this language was codified in the 1990s, in the 1990s. It was, it was developed

00:17:50.060 by linguistic, linguist Andrew or Sir Randy Bouchard with a local speaker, Louis Miranda. And they adopted the

00:17:58.940 formal written system. This is for a Squamish nation in 1990, the Musqueam nation that that sign was

00:18:04.460 written. It says this, in 1997, our community formally adopted the North American phonetic

00:18:09.660 alphabet, a script evolved over the last century, formalized by European and American anthropologists

00:18:15.580 and linguists. So this is a totally made up language. It was invented basically by academics

00:18:20.460 in the nineties. Okay. So like, why do we have to accept this? It's, it's, it's, it's just like,

00:18:25.820 it's an academic exercise. It's so ridiculous. Well, it's again, it's, it's, it's the, the no 0.98

00:18:31.820 better virtuous government elites who are now saying what's best for the people that they're

00:18:38.220 purporting to help after hundreds of years of, of exploiting them and, and, and destroying their

00:18:42.940 culture and their land and whatever, because you have to agree to that if, if that's their premise.

00:18:46.860 But yeah, now that they're doing it to preserve their own culture, because apparently they haven't

00:18:50.060 been good enough at preserving their own culture. It is, it's, it's progressivism for the sake of

00:18:54.940 progressivism, but at some point, and we've seen it now, and we're at that point, progressivism

00:18:59.500 becomes regressivism. When you start treating people like, like political tools and pawns to your

00:19:05.900 own virtue game of chess, which is what I say, Canadian liberals, but to some extent, also the

00:19:10.700 Conservative Party doesn't have entirely clean hands on this, but it's, it's a, it's, it makes Canada

00:19:16.140 a laughingstock in the States, but California and New York seem to be taking their cues from, from

00:19:22.220 Canada in terms of, you know, modern day progressivism. Well, they're giving us a run for our money,

00:19:27.740 I guess, but I still think Canada far and away goes, I will say just a little point of, I guess,

00:19:34.540 this is good news. Juno News reported back on June 11th that there was a study compiled by the

00:19:39.660 Associates for Canadian Studies and Metropolis Institute, and it found that 52% of Canadians

00:19:46.220 don't believe this theory, that Canada is on stolen land. They kind of reject the idea that we're,

00:19:51.420 European settlers, and that Canada is an illegitimate country. I guess it's good news, 52%, 1.00

00:19:55.660 so a majority rejected, but, but then on the flip side, 27%, a full 27, so one in, almost one in

00:20:02.540 three Canadians do believe that we live on stolen land, and then 21% declined and so they don't know

00:20:08.620 enough about it. But that's kind of a worrying statistic to me. I would, I would guess that like

00:20:13.180 10, 15 years ago, the number of Canadians who would have believed that would have been like

00:20:17.180 a small group of people in the faculty club, like 5% of the population max, right? The fact that 27%

00:20:23.580 of Canadians, and it's, it's a larger group for the younger generation, Gen Z, believe this,

00:20:29.180 believe this idea that Canada's not a legitimate country, Canada's uniquely evil, and that we live

00:20:34.460 on stolen land. I mean, what do you, what do you do with that portion of the population?

00:20:38.380 Well, I mean, I'd also love to see how that correlates with immigration policies, because

00:20:43.180 now I think one in four Canadians is born outside of Canada. And if you are someone who wants to come 1.00

00:20:49.340 to the country and appropriate its, I, I don't know how that actually tacks with immigration.

00:20:54.940 I would imagine that people who come to the country and say this, this land is now ours,

00:20:59.580 because it was never yours in the first place, would probably be more inclined to think, yeah,

00:21:03.340 Canada's stolen land. And so therefore I can come in here and claim it as my own and tell the Europeans 0.97

00:21:08.380 to go home as we've seen some of the Calistanis doing up in British Columbia. But it's also the 1.00

00:21:14.780 result of years of indoctrination. And I don't think that that would be wildly different than in

00:21:19.900 the States, or at least in big blue cities at big blue universities. The native local population have

00:21:26.380 been brainwashed into thinking that they are inherently evil. And in order to make up for that evil,

00:21:30.460 you've got to destroy the system that allowed for Canada and America to blossom into what it's blossomed

00:21:35.580 into. So it's not shocking. It's actually shocking that it's only 52% who think this is total hogwash.

00:21:41.260 I guess it hasn't gotten bad enough yet, but when they start taking away people's houses and property

00:21:45.340 in order to re-apportion it for reparations for native and indigenous populations, then maybe that

00:21:50.300 number will increase somewhat. Now, I know you're seeing that tongue in cheek, but I mean, that,

00:21:54.700 the way that our country is going, the way our society is going, it's not too long. I mean, we saw

00:21:59.180 just absolutely like atrocious comments from people online, for instance, after the October 7th terrorist

00:22:04.700 attacks in Israel saying that like, you know, resistance isn't violence or whatever violence

00:22:10.220 that you're allowed to inflict violence, that they're not civilians because they're settlers.

00:22:14.220 And at the same time, you sit online and you'll see them throw that word around calling Canadians,

00:22:19.500 white Canadians, European Canadians, settlers. It's like, yeah, this is going in a pretty scary

00:22:25.100 direction. I want to change subjects a little here, Vivian, and talk to you about, you know,

00:22:31.180 June used to be pride month. Now it's pride season. So I guess it's going to last the entire 0.99

00:22:34.860 summer. I feel like things have kind of calmed down stateside, like the, the whole like hyper

00:22:40.460 progressive pride stuff kind of tapered, like, like that's, that's over now. And a lot of corporations

00:22:45.660 are kind of backing away from it in Canada. It's still like full throttle. Right. And so even the

00:22:50.140 progressive conservatives in Ontario were out at the pride flags, pride parade. I was told they don't

00:22:55.260 go to the Toronto pride parade because it's just too crude. So they go to the North York one, 1.00

00:22:59.100 which is a little more family friendly, but they still showed up with these inclusive

00:23:04.300 pride progress flags. Right. So it's not just the gay pride parade anymore.

00:23:07.900 We have to also include the black and the brown chevron here is supposed to be to include people

00:23:13.900 of color in pride. And then the, um, the, the trans flag is also wrapped into that as well. I don't 0.90

00:23:21.660 know. I just cringe when I see conservative politicians catering to this stuff. I like, I get it. Look,

00:23:27.100 I like do what you do, you right. Everybody be yourself, do whatever you want. Um, but the idea

00:23:33.260 that we have to like put someone's sexual orientation above all else. I mean, we also had

00:23:38.300 this Canadian flag, the official social media handles for the government of Canada put out this

00:23:44.700 post where they change the Canadian flag into a rainbow flag. Right. And it's like, wait, I thought

00:23:49.820 that Canada was a diverse, I thought, I thought Canada believed in like diversity and diversities are

00:23:54.460 strength. So why is it that the Canadian flag doesn't include gay pride and that you have to 0.99

00:23:59.420 actually make it a gay pride flag? Like I just, to me, these people have just lost the plot and

00:24:04.220 they're just so obsessed with virtue signaling and so obsessed with pushing their woke priorities

00:24:08.860 onto Canadians. I'm just, I'm just so sick of it. Uh, what's, what's your take on this? 1.00

00:24:12.620 Mike, there's no such thing as a progressive conservative. It's like a jumbo shrimp,

00:24:16.940 a flat mountain, a pregnant virgin. There's only been one pregnant virgin and there won't be another 1.00

00:24:21.660 one because that excuse can only be used once, but, uh, no, it's a paradox in terms. It's a

00:24:26.700 contradiction in terms. And if we've seen anything, it's that the so-called conservatives out of Ontario,

00:24:31.820 progressive conservatives are, they're, they're, they're not even liberals going the speed limit

00:24:36.540 anymore. They're just liberals in disguise. And it's the social pressure, the contagion of, of, of Canada,

00:24:42.300 where it's like uncool to be genuinely conservative. Conservative means you, you know,

00:24:46.940 you conserve certain principles. You have something of an anchor of foundation,

00:24:50.860 progressivism and liberalism is anything goes and you go with the wind and, and that's how it goes.

00:24:54.940 You can't be a progressive conservative because it basically means I go with the wind and have

00:24:58.380 no fixed anchors, but I claim to be conserving something. Uh, it's a desecration of the flag,

00:25:04.620 period. And I don't care who does it. I never even like it when people splice together two different

00:25:08.620 nations flags to show allegiance or support. It's a desecration of the flag. And the idea that the

00:25:14.380 only thing you do this for, they did it for the Ukraine flag. They've done it now, uh,

00:25:18.460 in other conflicts in the world as well, but to transpose the Canadian flag into some trans flag,

00:25:24.540 a, I believe it. And, uh, call me whatever name you want. It's fundamentally child grooming. And it's

00:25:30.540 a bunch of perverts who are doing this and pushing this. Nobody cares what your sexual orientation is. 0.99

00:25:36.060 Adults will say you do you. And there's a lot of bisexual, there's a lot of heterosexual adults who

00:25:41.100 are into some funky stuff that nobody gives a sweet bugger all about. You keep it to yourself 0.96

00:25:45.580 and you don't rub it in my face. Nobody's got any problems with it. This is on the one hand,

00:25:50.220 grooming of children, political grooming for the next generation, and it's become an industry.

00:25:55.660 And so what we, you know, once something is grassroots, yeah, you know, gay rights. Okay,

00:25:59.020 fine. Now you get gay rights and then it gets corporatized. Then it gets governmentalized.

00:26:03.100 Then it gets corrupted. And then it becomes an industry where you have to promote it. And if you don't

00:26:07.180 promote it, you lose, you lose political support, you lose political capital, um, and you lose

00:26:14.940 potentially the graph, the grasp on power. Uh, but no, it's utter insanity. It's degeneracy and

00:26:22.540 debauchery because I'm not a religious person, but I do know that pride is a sin. And for good reason,

00:26:27.580 whether you like the Bible or not, it's time-tested and true, uh, you know, self-help book for humankind.

00:26:33.980 And we haven't changed that much in 5,000 years. It was a sin because nobody cares about what you do

00:26:39.180 behind closed doors. Nobody cares about your superficial, trivial elements of your identity,

00:26:43.900 but it's just become normalized perversion. And it's a way of controlling the next generation.

00:26:48.700 I couldn't, I couldn't agree more. I mean, to me, like, I'll give you an example. Um, my husband and I

00:26:53.740 went to go look at the local private school, considering maybe putting our kids into private

00:26:58.300 school. I wouldn't put them in public school at this point. And literally they had a pride flag 0.87

00:27:02.460 hanging from the school. And to me, it's like, what, in what world is a sexual flag

00:27:08.460 appropriate at an elementary school? These are little kids. These are my son is six, right?

00:27:13.580 Little kids. Like in what world is that appropriate? Other than exactly what you said, grooming, grooming

00:27:18.540 these kids to say, like, it's okay to be gay. You're gay. Being gay is great. Promoting it basically 1.00

00:27:24.380 for that generation. And again, I, I, I find it like cringey and embarrassing, right? Like we talked

00:27:30.620 about this earlier in the month that air Canada put out this video of the first all gay flight.

00:27:35.580 And I'm watching this video and I'm thinking like, what do these people have in common other than just 0.98

00:27:40.460 the fact that they're that like who they like to have sex with basically. And it's like, that's not

00:27:45.260 my business, right? I don't care. I'm getting on an airplane with my family. I want to get there on time.

00:27:50.460 I want everyone to be safe. That is all I care about. I do not care about what happens in your bedroom

00:27:56.300 with you and your partner. Like that's just totally irrelevant to me. And it's embarrassing.

00:28:00.620 I don't want to talk to my children about it. I want to tell them about this.

00:28:03.420 Like, I don't, I'm not going to ask questions about your sex life. Please don't ask me. Like,

00:28:07.740 how about we just carry on in society, be united by the things that unite us, like our shared values

00:28:13.100 and stop obsessing over people's sexuality. I want to tie this to a new report that the census

00:28:19.820 in Canada will now be asking questions about sexual orientation. This came out on Wednesday,

00:28:25.020 June 25th. So the 2026 long form census will for the first time ever ask Canadians over the age of 15

00:28:31.180 about their sexual orientation, building on a decision to include questions about sex at birth,

00:28:36.780 um, what and gender in the 2021 survey, uh, sex at birth. So I guess that just means that your sex,

00:28:42.380 you can change it if you want. Uh, okay. Anyway, the question on the census asks,

00:28:48.620 what is the person's sexual orientation? And it gives, uh, examples to describe yourself. You could

00:28:54.140 describe yourself as heterosexual, lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, or you can specify something

00:29:01.660 different. So this is Canada now for the 2026 census. Candace, the last time I was, it was a summer

00:29:07.420 ago, maybe at last summer, a little bit earlier, I went back to Canada for the summer and, um, I,

00:29:12.460 there was a, it's an all girls school flying a trans flag out their window. And I'm like,

00:29:17.580 they don't understand how stupid this is. They're flying the trans flag, you know, 1.00

00:29:21.900 the one with the triangle, the whole, all the colors of the rainbow over an all girls school.

00:29:26.460 And they don't understand the irony in this. Uh, the second thing that you were mentioning there.

00:29:31.580 Well, just, just for that point, uh, one of the private schools in Toronto,

00:29:35.900 the all girls school, they put out a gender report, uh, talking about girls in middle school.

00:29:40.220 And part of it, they were bragging about the number of girls at their school that identify

00:29:44.620 as LGB, whatever. And trends had, it was like only like, it was something like 92% of our students

00:29:50.780 identify as women. It's like, well, why are those other 8% at your school if it's an all girls school?

00:29:55.660 Like it was, it was, it's just, it's another contradiction in terms, but can you imagine

00:30:00.140 the disgusting perversion of adults having these discussions with kids, with kids who are not their own?

00:30:04.860 It is, it is perversion of the highest order. And that, that, that Air Canada flight, that was all

00:30:11.180 the first, all 2SLGBTQIA plus what, first of all, so you're basically telling me you discriminated

00:30:17.500 against the heterosexual guy or girl. Like that's seems unlawful to me. And B, someone says that

00:30:23.900 there are 2S or the L or the G, the B, how do you, is there a test? Do they have to like, is there a

00:30:29.100 casting couch to get onto this airplane? All of these questions and how you evidence them

00:30:33.100 are absolute disgusting degenerate, let's say degeneracy among consenting adults. It's fine.

00:30:38.620 It has no place in the workforce. And then you bring kids into this and somebody who's,

00:30:44.300 it's not controversial. Maybe it is. I don't know. Any adult who has these discussions with

00:30:48.140 children who are not their own gets off on it. And it is a form of, of, of disgusting degeneracy

00:30:53.900 perversion that an adult gets a kick out of having sexual and sexualized discussions with chill, with 0.84

00:30:59.500 minors. And, you know, there is a word for that, prepubescent minors. There's a specific word for 0.93

00:31:04.140 that. That's what it is. And anybody pretending it's otherwise is a lying to themselves. Although

00:31:08.300 there's some, probably some, you know, group that's going along with it just because it's the virtuous

00:31:11.660 thing to do. And this is tolerant society now to talk to children about sex and sexual orientation

00:31:16.620 and not reproduction. So I've gotten increasingly frustrated with the increasing extremism of these,

00:31:24.460 these, these very active groups. I think they represent a very vocal minority, but my goodness,

00:31:29.500 when you start seeing trans flags being flown over private all girl, uh, elementary schools,

00:31:36.140 Houston, we've got a problem. Unbelievable. You know, uh, I wish you'd move back to Canada

00:31:41.580 because we need more sensible people, uh, like you, our country. I feel, I feel like sometimes when I'm

00:31:45.740 talking about this issue, I feel like everybody, like, like everybody else just accepts it and kind

00:31:49.820 of moves on and chugs their shoulders. Like other moms I talk to the school, they're just kind of like,

00:31:53.580 oh, it's not that bad at our school or whatever. It's like, not that bad. I mean, it shouldn't exist

00:31:58.060 at all. Like we shouldn't be talking about sex at all to children. How is that even controversial?

00:32:02.060 Like zero, none. It's not even, it's not sex for the purposes of understanding how reproduction works. 0.91

00:32:08.220 It's about sex and sexual preferences for pure, uh, hedonistic pleasures. It makes no sense. And the

00:32:14.860 problem is I've had these, I say that Canada sort of pushed me out. There's not, I, well, unfortunately,

00:32:19.980 I discovered even in my own milieu, there's too many people who think I'm the radical in this.

00:32:24.140 And I was having a discussion with someone like, yeah, what's wrong with giving kids puberty blockers

00:32:27.500 and hormone replacement therapy? I was like, you're cool with it until it's your kid. And everybody's

00:32:31.660 cool with it. So long as it's someone else's kid and they can, and some people are cool with it.

00:32:34.540 If it's their kid, I think that's sort of gender dysphoria by proxy, but everyone's cool with it

00:32:39.020 because it shows their virtue signaling tolerance of perversion until it's their kid. And they're like,

00:32:45.180 yeah, maybe I don't really want to give my kid something that's going to mess up his or her body for the rest of

00:32:49.500 their lives. But it's a, the problem is Canada's in a, in a effing insane asylum silo. It's controlled

00:32:56.140 by the, I mean, it's affected by the control of the media and that you don't have as many,

00:33:00.700 I don't even say dissenting voices. You don't have as many voices of reason that get the same airtime

00:33:06.060 as you have in America. And you know, it's CBC, CTV, global news, and everybody views your network and

00:33:13.740 rebel news as, as, as radicals. And so it's just, I've never fully appreciated how incorrigibly and

00:33:21.100 irreparably indoctrinated Canada is as a nation. And I think it might be the most propagandized

00:33:26.060 nation, maybe even more so than North Korea, because at least there, they know that they're 0.99

00:33:29.340 being propagandized. Canadians don't even seem to realize it. No, they think they're well-educated

00:33:33.660 and they're up on their high horse thinking that they're superior to others. At least they're not

00:33:37.740 American. Not, not, not the people watching Juno news, of course, but the, the people who 0.53

00:33:41.900 get their news, uh, from CBC, I know too many of them. Okay. I've got one more topic for you, but

00:33:45.820 we're going to cut off the YouTube and the X live stream. We're going to do that over at Juno news.

00:33:49.340 We're going to be talking about the new public health official in Canada. So you remember Theresa

00:33:54.380 Tam from COVID years, uh, she's out. We have a new person, uh, not in that role, but we're going to talk

00:33:59.980 about this on the other side. So head on over to junonews.com, subscribe, become a premium

00:34:04.140 subscriber, help us replace the CBC and watch the end of the interview there. Okay.
