00:00:00.000 For those who think that the midterms are going to have a dramatic impact on this president's
00:00:07.360 policies, I believe they are sorely mistaken. I don't watch much Canadian media, but for a while
00:00:14.140 I did, and I loved all the pundits who came on and started talking about and explaining
00:00:19.520 American politics and explaining Donald Trump, kind of sit back and say, they're clueless.
00:00:25.920 They don't understand American politics. And they certainly do not understand. They do not
00:00:32.780 understand Donald Trump. You know, one thing I've noticed about politics is that reality always
00:00:39.140 wins. Eventually you can run ads, you can make speeches, you can come up with slogans, you can
00:00:45.140 spend months telling people that Canada is going to pivot away from America, but eventually you
00:00:50.520 run into reality. And reality is that nearly every major sector of the Canadian economy
00:00:56.640 depends on access to the United States. Reality is that Canadian investors do care what Washington
00:01:03.560 thinks. Reality is that trade between the two matters. Tariffs matter. And that's why moments
00:01:09.860 like this are so revealing. Because when the campaigning is over and the cameras aren't
00:01:14.640 supposed to catch everything, all that bravado and the whole elbows up thing disappears.
00:01:20.520 And so here you've got folks who are doing everything they can to get the Canadian public to rally against America.
00:01:33.820 It just doesn't make any sense.
00:01:36.060 But do you understand where that frustration is coming from?
00:01:38.300 Absolutely no.
00:01:39.020 In Canada because, you know, a lot of Canadians are saying, well, we didn't do anything wrong and suddenly Donald Trump, you know, put tariffs on us.
00:01:45.880 We put tariffs on everybody in the world.
00:01:47.840 There are two countries that have retaliated against America.
00:01:52.960 Okay.
00:01:53.840 China and Canada.
00:01:55.100 You said it.
00:01:56.040 I didn't.
00:01:56.960 There is a growing call from very respected people in this country that Canada will have
00:02:03.100 to retaliate.
00:02:04.420 In the New York Times last week, Krista Freeland did a very, really good article on the necessity
00:02:10.080 to be prepared to retaliate against the Americans.
00:02:13.920 Scotty Greenwald, who was the former head of the Canada American Business Council,
00:02:19.520 wrote an article saying, I love America, but from Canada's perspective,
00:02:24.980 you've got to be prepared to now hit back at the Americans.
00:02:29.200 Doug Ford has been saying this for quite some time.
00:02:33.020 You're seeing that from David Eby in British Columbia.
00:02:36.360 So you're starting to see a consensus of putting pressure on Carney.
00:02:41.000 if nothing gets resolved by that deadline, that it may be that Canada is going to start,
00:02:47.880 or at least they're trying to give the prime minister the backbone to be able to retaliate.
00:02:52.660 So here's the real story. The Trump administration isn't trying to go after Canadians individually.
00:02:59.020 They're going after a globalist, China-aligned, liberal machine that is running Canada into the ground.
00:03:05.380 The problem is when Washington swings at Mark Carney, regular Canadians are going to get hit too, unfortunately.
00:03:13.400 Workers, farmers, energy industry, manufacturing, everybody's getting hit because Mark Carney wants to play globalist leader on the world stage while Canada's economy gets dragged into the middle of a fight we never had to be in and can't possibly win.
00:03:30.600 And we need to be very wary about pivoting to China at the expense of the U.S.
00:03:37.700 Geography matters, and we are neighbours and we share a continent, and that's not going away.
00:03:42.900 And so we have to find some way of coexisting with these so-called great powers,
00:03:47.220 but coexisting from a position of being strong enough to ensure that we have sufficient autonomy
00:03:52.600 in our decisions, being able to protect our national interests,
00:03:59.360 not crossing red lines that we impose that these are interests we're not going to sacrifice.
00:04:04.460 You know, with China and Russia in particular, we've seen them drawn even closer together.
00:04:10.620 China is underpinning Russian war crimes in Ukraine through many dual-use technologies,
00:04:17.300 even some signal-use technologies, such as providing a great amount of their nitrocellulose
00:04:22.260 for propellant for explosives.
00:04:25.200 And so we need to be wary that that relationship continues to strengthen,
00:04:30.000 including in the Arctic, which was traditionally a wedge issue between the two.
00:04:36.960 There's no amount of trade with China that can create equilibrium
00:04:43.500 of cutting ties with the United States of America.
00:04:47.100 So Mark Carney, Prime Minister Carney, and the Liberals have to get over this.
00:04:51.420 I'm repeating it because it's worth repeating.
00:04:53.340 we need to cut ties with China and we need to cut ties completely because ultimately the answer to
00:05:00.120 your question is China's always leveraging our dependency on their supply chain and they're
00:05:08.420 always leveraging that to intimidate Canada to take certain decisions. They said well you know
00:05:13.640 we can take America down we're going to cut off supplies to I don't know what else he said but
00:05:20.040 he said energy which most of the energy doesn't come from ontario anyway it comes from alberta
00:05:23.900 so the game he's playing is well let's threaten to cut off alberta energy so as to punish the
00:05:29.160 americans for all the all the obstacles they're placing on you know ontario products uh that's
00:05:35.440 very funny because it feeds into the alberta independence question uh it shows just how much
00:05:40.240 importance alberta has uh plays in the economy of this country yep uh but but really i mean the the
00:05:49.860 That rant that Ford gave following this tariff announcement was embarrassing.
00:05:56.320 And now the United States is basically telling Canada, this is your last warning.
00:06:00.620 Pick a side, because you can't keep backstabbing America while expecting to still have a strong relationship with it.
00:06:07.020 Does America need Canada?
00:06:10.100 Well, I would say that yes, absolutely.
00:06:12.600 United States needs Canada.
00:06:13.660 And the main reason is that without Canada, Canada's infiltration by the CCP is not something the United States wants on its border.
00:06:23.260 So absolutely, Canada is essential for the United States in defense of the continent.
00:06:28.100 Without it, the CCP comes in, increases the threat level, and becomes an existential threat.
00:06:36.000 They're not an existential threat now.
00:06:38.440 I believe that that's a growing threat.
00:06:40.500 I think that beyond kinetic, in a hybrid war sense, absolutely, they're a threat.
00:06:45.980 However, should Canada take further steps with the CCP, we don't know where that could go.
00:06:54.420 From Chinese boots on the ground to munitions to that military-type support,
00:07:01.060 that's a bigger concern, I think, for the United States than the hybrid warfare pieces at this moment.
00:07:06.500 It's been building for the last 30 years.
00:07:08.400 You know, the United States has recognized that the CCP is infiltrating Canada, and that threat level has increased substantially.
00:07:15.600 It's only been recently that the U.S. administration has taken steps to identify it and call Canada out and say, you need to fix what's going on in your country because we're worried about you.
00:07:25.920 And that's where the concern is.
00:07:27.640 And now you're worried that it's accelerating, basically.
00:07:30.220 That's what you're saying, right?
00:07:31.340 Yes, absolutely.
00:07:33.360 Absolutely.
00:07:33.920 It's definitely accelerating.
00:07:36.340 The brakes have been taken off.
00:07:38.400 The constraints that were once there are no longer limiting.
00:07:43.280 So the CCP has a free run in Canada.
00:07:47.100 And the people like me that have been speaking out about it, we've lost our voice.
00:07:51.920 A lot of journalists and media, they've been marginalized.
00:07:56.280 They've been forced to leave mainstream media.
00:07:58.200 So the population doesn't get the full view of what's going on and the extent of the infiltration.
00:08:08.400 Thank you.
