00:00:00.320 Michaela Peterson, the daughter of Jordan Peterson, issued an update about her father's
00:00:04.780 health on social media. As you may or may not know, the beloved, legendary professor,
00:00:10.240 he hasn't been in such great health recently. So I'm going to show you what she had to say,
00:00:14.180 and I'm going to warn you, this might make you really upset. Just letting you know,
00:00:18.020 let's take a look at it. Hey guys, brief update on my dad, because I know a lot of you have
00:00:23.180 reached out and asked and have been waiting for one, as have we obviously. I don't have a lot
00:00:29.200 to say because everything's been slow. He's still very unwell, but he's not in the hospital. I'm
00:00:35.400 seeing him every day for hours, which is really nice. So the good news is that Dr. Peterson is
00:00:40.720 out of the hospital. That's really good to hear. However, it's the next part that may or may not
00:00:45.760 make you really sad. We're working with great specialists and giving him more time to recover.
00:00:50.620 I'm hopeful he will recover with time. When I posted the last video, I didn't know if he would
00:00:54.980 recover at all. It was really scary and I'm hopeful now, but it's still early on and he's
00:01:00.640 still quite unwell. And we're still really not sure what's going on, whether it's an immune system
00:01:05.200 issue, neurological, both. So I wanted to give an update that was like, things are really bad,
00:01:11.800 but they're not as bad as they were a month ago or two months ago. Needless to say, this is really
00:01:15.660 sad. The scary part, I just checked and Jordan Peterson, Dr. Jordan Peterson is only 63 years old.
00:01:22.060 And that's not really that old these days. The fact that they don't know what's wrong with them
00:01:26.740 is really concerning. And that's the part that I'm worried about. Further, this means that Jordan
00:01:30.860 Peterson won't be able to weigh in on political matters or any matters anytime soon. And I know
00:01:36.100 there's a lot of people, hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people that really admire Jordan
00:01:41.000 Pearson and want to hear what he has to say about politics. So there's a lot of people that are going
00:01:45.340 to be very disappointed to hear this. So that's the update. I wish things would just go back to
00:01:49.760 normal, but they're not there yet. Thank you so much for your prayers. We need them. I'll let
00:01:55.800 you guys know as soon as I can, if anything changes, hopefully he's on the road to recovery.
00:01:59.700 As for me, I haven't really been online or at least posting because the situation is stressful
00:02:05.140 and sad, and I don't really want to get on a camera and pretend everything's okay.
00:02:09.880 So I basically been offline really since last February with the pregnancy. Then Audrey,
00:02:16.820 my seven month old now getting incredibly sick and dad getting sick. Audrey, on the other hand,
00:02:23.440 is doing really well. Praise God for that. We still aren't sure what happened. Like she almost died
00:02:30.300 from a heart issue, even though her heart is normal. She was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary
00:02:35.000 hypertension. And that seems to be, seems to have been a one-off freak incident that hasn't repeated.
00:02:43.080 So like I said, praise God for that. Jury's still out. If there's a long-term problem that they just
00:02:49.400 can't find, I'll probably be paranoid about it until she's 20. Wow. It really looks like
00:02:54.360 Michaela Peterson is having a rough year. She had a baby that got sick. And on top of that,
00:02:59.800 her father is sick. Now you can say whatever you want about this woman, go ahead. But you can't
00:03:05.920 deny the fact that she's a strong woman for having gone through all of this on top of being a public
00:03:11.100 figure and having numerous other responsibilities. I feel really bad for her and she's in my prayers.
00:03:16.880 I hope you guys are doing well. And I can't thank you enough for the outpour of prayers and messages
00:03:21.500 after the last video. They have been so helpful to me. I don't even have words for how helpful
00:03:27.500 they've been. I know they've helped my mom too. That's really made a difference this year getting
00:03:32.820 through a whole bunch of health, crazy health things. So thank you guys. Like I said, I can't
00:03:39.440 describe how helpful people reaching out has been. Even if I haven't responded, there've been
00:03:43.880 thousands and thousands of messages and it it's been really nice. So I will talk to you guys soon.
00:03:51.220 I also have an announcement too, that I will put out in a few days that I'm excited about nothing to
00:03:58.320 do with dad, but something I've been wanting to do for a very long time that I'm going to launch.
00:04:04.540 It's not a product. It's more exciting than a product. So I'll talk to you about that very soon.
00:04:11.660 Bye for now.
00:04:12.260 So needless to say, this news about Peterson is really hard to hear. Very sad. We're losing a lot
00:04:18.040 of great commentators. If you remember earlier this year, Don Cherry, the legendary hockey commentator,
00:04:23.600 he announced his retirement from podcasting. So now it's Don Cherry and Jordan Peterson this year.
00:04:29.180 On top of that, last year we had Rex Murphy who passed away, the legendary national post columnist.
00:04:36.580 So we're losing commentators faster than we're getting them. And that's sad because I hate to
00:04:41.760 say it, but there's a lack of talent in the conservative commentary movement in Canada.
00:04:46.760 There really is. Nowadays, we're stuck with Mr. Sunshine Baby, or as I like to call him,
00:04:51.900 Mr. Cry Baby, Mr. Click Baby. We also have guys like the Pleb, also known as Nick Bellinger,
00:04:58.260 that are so busy chasing women in Thailand, they sometimes forget to make videos. So maybe we could
00:05:04.000 all just take a moment to give a quick prayer for Jordan Peterson and his family and hope that he
00:05:09.560 recovers and one day returns to political commentary. The good news, and I always try to be a bit positive,
00:05:16.620 is that Pierre Paulyeve is still around and contributing to politics. Heaven forbid the left
00:05:22.100 gets their hands on him or he gets sick because if he goes, that's the end. We might as well have
00:05:28.180 Donald Trump take us over at that point. And I'm not the biggest fan of Donald Trump right now,
00:05:33.380 but if Paulyeve goes, I don't know what else to say. So to end off this video, I'm going to show
00:05:37.600 you a quick clip, an interview between Jordan Peterson and Pierre Paulyeve. And this happened
00:05:42.620 before the federal election this year. I also want to remind you of being heavily censored on YouTube.
00:05:47.980 So if you see this part, let me know in the comment section, give me a quick like and make sure
00:05:52.260 you're still subscribed. Thanks. How do you feel about the probability that if the conservatives
00:05:57.540 in Canada take power, that they'll be enticed into this global utopian delusion that seems to
00:06:04.040 have enveloped so many, so many leaders, kind of regardless of their political stripe? What do you
00:06:09.520 think, if anything, can inoculate you or has inoculated you against that? I know better.
00:06:16.340 Well, elaborate. What do you mean? Well, I'm not going to do that. And it will be hard because
00:06:22.100 the temptation will be, this is the mistake that conservative parties around the world have made
00:06:26.640 countless times. They think, well, anybody who's got a conservative mindset is already voting for
00:06:32.600 me so I can go off and chase the ideas of my political opponents. And then everyone will love me
00:06:39.500 because I'll have the conservatives due to the fact that I have the name conservative.
00:06:43.180 And then I'll have all these other people because I've embraced their contrary direction.
00:06:50.240 And in the short term, it works because you're, you're, you're managed to have all of these people
00:06:55.680 under and all of the different political ideologies captured in one tent. But the problem happens when
00:07:03.920 the policies are a disaster and then people wake up and go, oh my God, my taxes are now up. My inflation
00:07:10.620 is out of control. The deficit is spiraling. There's crime on the streets. So it would,
00:07:16.780 does the temptation exist to try and take on these, the political policies of the socialists
00:07:26.800 in the short term? Sure. But it's one that I will fiercely resist because I know that by the fourth
00:07:32.920 year of my mandate, people would be enraged because their lives would be even worse. So it will be
00:07:40.100 tough though. Like it's going to be a trade-off. This has really transpired in large part over the
00:07:45.680 nine to 10 year period that Trudeau has been governing. And so when you are trying to put
00:07:52.180 your finger on what went so, so wrong, so calamitously wrong, what, what do you think the
00:07:59.160 major contributors were? I mean, there's a lot of hydras whose heads we're encountering at the
00:08:04.740 moment. And I imagine it's relatively difficult to trace a causal pathway, but what did we do wrong
00:08:11.440 as a country? Well, I mean, we, we, it's, it's, it doesn't, what I'm about to say is not a shock to
00:08:19.640 anyone. We, we have a prime minister who is dedicated to a extremely radical ideology. It is
00:08:27.300 just a rehashed socialism that has been discredited again and again and again throughout the ages. And
00:08:35.160 his, um, basically authoritarian socialism is, has guided him throughout his entire prime
00:08:43.040 ministership. He believes in a state that controls every aspect of your life, your money, your speech,
00:08:48.960 your thought, um, controls the economic, uh, all of the industries of the country. Um, and every time
00:08:58.080 that has been tried, it is a complete disaster. So it's, there's no mystery involved in it is the same
00:09:03.900 old disastrous outcome that results from the same old disastrous policies. Right. That, that have
00:09:09.440 demonstrated themselves as disastrous continuously throughout the 20th century.
