00:00:00.000 The Canada doesn't live because of the United States Canada thrives because we are Canadian
00:00:15.300 we have all the cards in both of them the same thing with Canada Canada is working very hard
00:00:22.320 to make a deal with us we have all the cards just like I told Zalinski ladies and gentlemen
00:00:29.160 And things are getting very serious and very messy between the United States and Canada right now.
00:00:35.740 And boy, do I have a bombshell to share with you today.
00:00:38.780 The declarations coming from President Donald Trump and the ones coming from Mark Carney are getting more and more intense.
00:00:46.040 Let me tell you something. What we're witnessing right now could have enormous consequences for both countries.
00:00:51.960 because we have two leaders, two completely different personalities and different ideas
00:00:58.140 about how this relationship is supposed to work. And the big question is, who actually needs who
00:01:04.580 more? And I think Mark Carney is about to find out the hard way that there's a big difference
00:01:09.800 between playing political games and playing with Donald Trump. You see, this man, he thinks he's a
00:01:16.140 genius, right? He thinks he's got everything figured out, that he's going to drag this thing
00:01:20.600 out, blaming Trump for everything until Trump is no longer in office. That way he can continue
00:01:26.240 benefiting politically, right? He keeps giving Canadians this cute little speech about how
00:01:31.620 strong we are playing on Canadian patriotism, and I'm calling it what it is, fake patriotism,
00:01:38.620 because I question just how much this man actually believes in the country he claims to be defending.
00:01:43.820 We've seen questions raised about his investments, his financial connections to the United States,
00:01:48.980 and the very global economy that he now tells Canadians we need to move away from. But there's
00:01:54.300 just one problem. Reality doesn't give a damn about Mark Carney's political ambitions or his
00:01:59.800 deceit. And neither does Donald Trump. But I want you to think about this for a second.
00:02:04.620 We have a prime minister who spent months, the better part of a year, telling Canadians that
00:02:09.860 we don't need the United States. We're going to build this great economy. We're going to diversify.
00:02:14.820 we're gonna show the americans who's boss right but here's the thing there's reality and the
00:02:20.340 reality is we need a deal we're bleeding jobs like there's no tomorrow canada's economy is
00:02:25.460 struggling more people are turning to food banks than ever before provides a troubling snapshot of
00:02:31.140 the ongoing affordability crisis showing mounting pressure on household finance is now turning into
00:02:37.460 a full-blown crisis for so many people right across the country civil single folks and families from
00:02:43.540 coast to coast showing that monthly food bank visits have now topped 2.35 million in 2026
00:02:51.700 that's up almost nine percent over last year's record-setting number and more than 117 percent
00:02:58.980 according to food banks canada since 2019 a staggering increase in demand that has pushed
00:03:05.140 some food banks to the brink sounding the alarm that in some cases people have been forced to be
00:03:10.340 turned away due to lack of food or resources. The number is clearly showing many people are
00:03:15.040 struggling to afford the basic necessities and that has more people than ever turning to food
00:03:20.760 banks. Even more troubling, one in five food bank clients have jobs yet still don't have enough
00:03:26.320 leftover to cover food to feed their family compared to one in ten in the same situation
00:03:31.420 in 2019. One third of food bank users are children. That's more than 775,000 kids needing food bank
00:03:40.260 services every month. And if you look at some of the calls to action here, Food Banks Canada
00:03:45.100 is demanding more help from all levels of government to reform income supports,
00:03:49.340 take action to make life more affordable and invest more specifically in the north where
00:03:54.420 it states people in northern and remote communities can spend upwards of 40% of
00:03:59.680 household income on food compared to roughly 11% nationally. Things are getting pretty bad
00:04:06.740 up here, north of the border. And while Mark Carney has been busy playing Captain Canada,
00:04:12.240 Donald Trump has been reminding everybody of a very uncomfortable reality. The United States
00:04:18.160 hauls all the cars. I mean, when you look at the economic relationship between Canada and
00:04:23.260 the United States, you can certainly understand why he would say that. It's simple math. That's
00:04:28.660 not something Canadians have to like. That's not something that you necessarily have to agree with.
00:04:33.340 but the numbers don't care about your feelings.
00:04:36.400 A full one-third of our members, small business owners,
00:04:40.760 report that they've had major negative impacts from the Canada-U.S. trade war,
00:04:45.240 and that's largely driven by the broader economic uncertainty
00:04:48.700 that the trade war has brought.
00:04:50.840 Thousands and thousands of small firms that have been directly broadsided
00:04:54.780 by the trade war with the United States in different directions.
00:04:59.600 The median cost for our members so far has the minute
00:05:03.340 Median monthly cost for small business owners
00:05:06.020 has been about $80,000.
00:05:08.580 So that's quite significant an impact
00:05:10.620 that that has on a small company.
00:05:13.740 We'd find that nearly one in five of our members
00:05:17.060 who export and about 10% of our members who import
00:05:21.580 have been affected by the Canada-US trade war.
00:05:24.700 They are reporting that they would potentially not last
00:05:28.580 more than three months if the trade war lasts that long.
00:05:32.960 This is where Mark Carney made one of the biggest miscalculations of his entire political career.
00:05:37.600 Because this guy, Mark Carney, he has a God complex.
00:05:41.320 Honestly, I believe that.
00:05:42.640 He thinks he knows everything.
00:05:44.000 He thinks he can control everything.
00:05:45.760 He can predict things that other people can't.
00:05:48.100 I guess that's the globalist banker complex.
00:05:51.800 He has everything behind that fake smile, like the globalist that he is.
00:05:55.120 He's accustomed to walking into a room and having everybody else do exactly what he wants.
00:06:00.460 And then comes along Donald Trump, completely different animal, who doesn't play by the rules,
00:06:06.340 who's not afraid to tell you exactly what he thinks to your face, and who doesn't particularly
00:06:11.120 like Mark Carney. And that's where Carney messed up. He thought he could turn Donald Trump into his
00:06:17.420 biggest political asset, keep the confrontation going forever, keep Canadians angry at Trump,
00:06:23.200 and keep presenting himself as the man standing between Canada and the big bad United States.
00:06:28.400 Why does it feel like today Mark Carney is going to war, trade war, the tone?
00:06:35.720 Because we're attacked.
00:06:38.120 Like, you're at war when you get attacked.
00:06:40.440 We got attacked.
00:06:41.420 The U.S. put 50 percent.
00:06:43.060 We waited until the United States decided to actually implement the so-called 338 tariffs.
00:06:49.200 That's fine.
00:06:50.800 We've got the reserves.
00:06:52.060 We've got the resilience.
00:06:53.140 We've got the plan.
00:06:54.260 We've got the focus.
00:06:55.260 We will respond.
00:06:56.080 We're going to focus on what we can control.
00:06:57.600 We're going to build.
00:06:58.400 your expectation for your meeting with the canadian prime minister tomorrow
00:07:01.920 i don't know he's coming to see me i'm not sure what he wants to see me about but i guess he
00:07:05.680 wants to make a deal everybody does they all want to make a deal because we have something that they
00:07:10.800 all want we have something that they all want china wants to make a deal very badly you see 0.89
00:07:16.160 what's happening to china china is being decimated and i don't want that to happen but they have to
00:07:21.600 make a fair deal we were losing hundreds of billions of dollars a year we're losing five
00:07:26.240 think of it on our trade policies with biden we're losing five billion dollars a day at the
00:07:32.560 end of the day his plan to use donald trump as a political prop that he can always point to
00:07:38.800 to cover his failures is running out of time people are starting to realize that old carney
00:07:43.520 has his speeches and life is getting a lot worse in canada so i don't think he's going to be able
00:07:49.440 to sustain this for much longer as always thanks for watching if you enjoyed this video remember
