00:00:00.460 Hello, everybody, and welcome back to another episode, not a live stream this time. It's
00:00:05.840 an episode because something happened, not major, that happened to me, but it got me
00:00:11.440 thinking and I wanted to do just a short form video on it because it's not enough really
00:00:16.560 to fill up a live stream and God knows we have enough content when we do live streams
00:00:21.260 to last forever. But I was going to get a coffee at McDonald's. Yes, I know, Goyslop
00:00:29.640 and all that stuff. But I had noticed, which was it and it was very odd to me because I don't
00:00:35.240 usually see this. But I had noticed that there was a gentleman there who, you know, a white man
00:00:41.800 who was standing there and I wasn't sure if he was asking for money because he didn't he didn't
00:00:46.860 have that very aggressive kind of panhandling, you know, attitude about him. But he was just
00:00:51.960 standing there and holding a cup and he, you know, didn't look, he didn't really look homeless,
00:00:57.400 Right. So whatever, take that as you will. But because I was stuck in the drive through for a while, I was chatting with him and, you know, just kind of got a little bit of his story.
00:01:06.160 And, you know, he's kind of in the same boat as a lot of people, I think, right now who did have employment and has been replaced by, you know, third world slave labor, basically.
00:01:17.080 So he's now in a position where he doesn't have a home. And he said to me, you know, I'm not homeless.
00:01:23.280 I'm just, you know, unhoused is the liberal term for it, I guess, that he used. But it got me
00:01:30.700 thinking and I gave him I don't usually carry cash. And I know that's probably something I
00:01:35.020 should change. Because once they bring in all this digital ID and stuff, we're, you know,
00:01:38.660 going to be tied to, you know, digital currency. Are we even going to be able to get cash? That's
00:01:44.000 the other question. But I had given him, you know, the $10 that I had in my wallet, because,
00:01:50.120 You know, I just, I don't know, I just felt like we should be helping our people more. And I got this basically from my Australian friend, Joe, who him and his wife always pay it forward to, you know, white Australians and stuff like that.
00:02:07.400 because let's be real, you know, the white people are really the most oppressed people
00:02:11.260 in these Western countries. In reality, they don't get the handouts, they don't get the benefits,
00:02:19.200 they don't get the privilege, you know, and all that kind of stuff. So it got me thinking about
00:02:24.240 the fact that all the money that we spend, because if you haven't heard, you know, we're giving more
00:02:30.440 money in Canada to the Ukraine and in in addition to that we are you know spending less and less on 0.99
00:02:40.480 our Canadian people at home we're using money to fund you know other countries to fund stupid 0.98
00:02:47.340 retarded you know things that have nothing to do with Canada and then you know you have the prime 0.99
00:02:51.900 minister grifting for money to fix up you know the prime minister's residence right from private 0.91
00:02:57.600 citizens who most of us, all said and done, all taxes, you know, in, we pay probably about 50%
00:03:05.400 of our income towards various different taxes and fees and stuff like that. So I wanted to do a
00:03:10.640 little bit more of a deep dive as to how much money does the Canadian government actually get
00:03:15.900 from taxpayers or people who pay tax, and that's including all taxes. And what is their budget
00:03:22.760 every year? How much do they spend and the breakdown of that money? Because I'm a firm
00:03:27.640 believer that there's I mean, yes, we're already in debt, we have tons of debt, tons of deficits,
00:03:32.540 so it's going to take forever to climb out of that. But with the amount of money that they're
00:03:38.160 receiving in tax revenue, there is no reason why we should be in a deficit, because the majority
00:03:44.420 of the or not the majority, but a large portion of the spending is being spent on sending money
00:03:50.760 to other countries, which is not something that we need to do, right? And less and less is being
00:03:56.080 spent on domestic home issues, right? So this is what we're talking about today. We're going to
00:04:03.260 cut through the noise with some hard numbers. Canada, of course, faces a growing homelessness
00:04:08.180 crisis. And I know a lot of it is, or at least it used to be drug related. But I find now that it's
00:04:13.440 it's less and less drug and addiction related as to more on an inability to afford living in this 0.97
00:04:23.380 fucking country so while we have this growing crisis billions are billions billions of dollars 0.98
00:04:31.620 flow overseas and into systems that support non-citizens non-canadians from my perspective 1.00
00:04:39.760 The question is simple. What if we redirected those resources home? So we're going to examine some of the data on homelessness, international aid, refugee and asylum costs, recent examples of misplaced priorities, like fundraising for the Prime Minister's residents, and realistic savings from enforcing our borders and immigration laws.
00:05:03.380 the reason why, you know, and there's somebody in Australia, Ospil, who's, I guess he's a
00:05:09.620 nationalist influence or whatever. But he talked about this in Australia with Indians. And it's
00:05:14.740 the same thing here. The reason why we have so many Indians coming into our country, as opposed 1.00
00:05:20.320 to other, you know, people from other countries, is that our government signed deals with these,
00:05:26.660 with India, basically. India's support of countries like Canada, Australia, and that is
00:05:34.960 determined on how we can help them. So it's not like a mutual, like our relationship with the US,
00:05:41.740 right? We have a, well, we used to have a mutual relationship because we had the same interests,
00:05:45.760 the same goals. We were, you know, the same people for the most part.
00:05:49.980 India doesn't have any allies. They ally with who is giving them, much like Indians in general.
00:05:55.440 They will align with whoever's giving them the most financial benefit.
00:05:59.760 So the reason why they do this is because India's economy, which I've talked about many times, is heavily dependent on remittances, which is basically Indian people or Indian citizens working in other countries, Western countries, and sending the majority of the money they make back to India.
00:06:18.020 So that causes two problems. It causes that they've taken a job from a Canadian, but also that they're not putting that money back into the economy. They're actually sending it to India.
00:06:28.380 The evidence shows that meaningful cuts to foreign spending and non-essential commitments could free up the funds needed to make a real dent in homelessness for actual Canadians.
00:06:40.500 So let's start with the scale of homelessness among Canadians.
00:06:44.700 The facts on the ground are this. In 2025, point in time counts across dozens of communities. Over 65,000 people were experiencing homelessness on a single night. And of course, broader annual estimates put the number of Canadians touched by homelessness much higher. It's often cited around 200,000 or more, which include the hidden homeless, is what they call it.
00:07:09.400 chronic homelessness the long-term repeated cases that are hardest and most expensive to address
00:07:17.300 this affects tens of thousands the parliamentary budget office estimated that having chronic
00:07:23.480 homelessness would require an additional 3.5 billion per year in sustained funding for
00:07:29.660 supportive housing and services i would argue that you know as somebody who you know used to work
00:07:36.420 and used to work in nonprofit organizations, that this could be done for less. You know,
00:07:43.720 you could encourage these people. I mean, obviously, the economy needs to be stimulated
00:07:48.300 to create jobs, but it's a start, right? So let's say we need to do $3.5 billion per year
00:07:53.960 in sustained funding. Fine. That's what we're going to go with right now. Meanwhile, the broader
00:07:59.800 societal cost of homelessness, emergency shelters, healthcare, policing, lost productivity,
00:08:06.040 which again, Canada doesn't produce anything. So I don't know how much of an impact that has.
00:08:10.340 This runs into the billions annually. A housing first approach have proven cost effective in
00:08:16.940 studies, often saving money long term compared to managing people on the streets. This is also a
00:08:22.660 common issue in a lot of Western countries because of bureaucracy, right? They need to keep all these
00:08:28.000 people employed, you know, women that, you know, go to Jewish daycare, as we call it. So they need 0.99
00:08:32.520 all these social workers, all these advocates on the street, all these, you know, crisis
00:08:37.680 counsellors, all these different people.
00:08:39.580 So it's in the benefit of all these people to keep people homeless, because then they
00:08:43.780 wouldn't have a job if people weren't homeless.
00:08:46.080 So it's the case with all governments.
00:08:48.480 They will never solve the direct problem because of the fallout of job loss and all the bureaucracy
00:08:55.440 that would fall if we just, you know, decided to address the actual problem instead of just
00:09:00.940 throwing money at everything.
00:09:02.520 And the bottom line, basically, is we know what works, right? The funding gap is real, but it's not insurmountable if we reprioritize where the money's going.
00:09:12.040 So let's talk about the international aid that Canada just loves to send, all of our money that we never had any choice in or any vote in as to where it's going.
00:09:24.160 billions have been sent abroad and the majority is obviously to the ukraine who in for all intents
00:09:30.680 and purposes is fighting an unwinnable war and if you ask any expert that is uh you know not has
00:09:36.760 knowledge has you know in-depth knowledge of geopolitical issues they'll tell you the same
00:09:42.860 thing there's just no way the ukraine is going to win this war against russia it's just an
00:09:47.600 impossibility so the best bet would be for the allies to tell them to concede the piece of land
00:09:53.760 that Russia wants. And then everybody can stop sending the money. Because is money going to
00:10:00.400 create more people? All of the men that are dying in the Ukraine for this war, is this money going
00:10:04.880 to help and create more soldiers? No, it's not. So where is it going? It's money laundering. It's
00:10:09.180 going to Zelensky to buy new mansions and new cars and all this stuff. So it's just a waste of
00:10:15.480 money. And at the end of the day, this war has gone on long enough. It's in the interest of
00:10:19.780 everybody involved to just end it. Why do we have to keep sending money to them? But we do.
00:10:25.080 In the fiscal year 2024 to 2025, the federal government dispersed approximately,
00:10:29.780 I hope you're sitting down, $12.5 billion in international assistance. This includes official
00:10:36.520 development assistance, humanitarian aid, contributions to multilateral organizations,
00:10:42.360 NGOs, and support for global initiatives, like the money they sent to, you know, I don't know 0.99
00:10:47.480 where it was, but to tell them post signs that not to shit on the street. I think that was Haiti. 0.98
00:10:51.900 I don't know. They sent money for that kind of stuff. Why? Broader figures that fold in related
00:10:58.660 costs push the total closer to $13.4 billion. From a nationalist viewpoint, this raises a
00:11:06.640 fundamental question. While Canadian citizens sleep in tents, encampments, or shelters, if they can get
00:11:14.160 of bed. Why are we spending this scale of money on foreign countries and causes? Why? And that
00:11:21.040 takes us to misplaced priorities. Fundraising for Sussex Drive while sending billions to the
00:11:27.760 Ukraine. A stark example of this, and this has driven me crazy since I heard it, a stark example
00:11:36.060 of this disconnect came when Prime Minister Mark Kearney's circle reportedly sought private
00:11:42.500 donations to upgrade or maintain the Prime Minister's official residence at Sussex Drive.
00:11:48.260 At the same time, Canada continued pouring billions into the Ukraine. So it wasn't just
00:11:53.460 like corporate donations. They were looking for everyday Canadians to dig into their pockets,
00:11:59.400 which are practically empty, to donate money to fix up the Prime Minister's residence. And they
00:12:06.060 claim this is a heritage thing. Well, then maybe you should reprioritize the money you're sending
00:12:10.180 to other countries and use that to fix it up. I would rather use the money tax dollars to fix up
00:12:16.280 the Prime Minister's residence in Canada than I would to send to the Ukraine.
00:12:22.680 Canada has committed over $25 billion overall to Ukraine since the conflict escalated,
00:12:30.040 including billions in direct financial and military support. Again, have you seen the
00:12:34.880 state of our own military? Such as nearly $3 billion in loans and aid packages in recent
00:12:41.740 fiscal periods alone, with ongoing commitments for defense, reconstruction, and humanitarian needs.
00:12:49.980 Think about that contrast. Asking Canadians or donors to chip in for upgrades to the Prime
00:12:57.880 Minister's residence while taxpayer dollars flow by the billions to foreign conflicts and aids,
00:13:04.880 this isn't about isolated incidents it symbolizes a broader pattern where elite priorities and
00:13:15.360 international gestures or virtue signaling take precedence over urgent domestic needs like housing
00:13:21.740 for our own people and what is the cost of supporting non-citizens and potential savings
00:13:28.600 from the enforcement of these non-citizens a major overlapping category is spending
00:13:33.520 the spending that's tied to asylum seekers refugees and other non-citizens that access 1.00
00:13:39.880 benefits and services i'm sure you've all seen the story going around and you know fat fuck 0.98
00:13:45.260 doug ford finally had to speak on it because it's been going around he wouldn't have said 0.96
00:13:48.960 something otherwise of somebody who's been in the country illegally since 2003 working under the
00:13:54.400 table not contributing any tax dollars whatsoever lost their cash under the table job last year or
00:14:01.260 whatever, and ended up in a shelter, and then applied for welfare. And rightfully so was denied
00:14:07.980 welfare initially, because he has no status in Canada. But a tribunal overturned that and said
00:14:13.060 that the Ontario government, the Ontario people must pay him welfare, despite never contributing 0.92
00:14:19.540 a single fucking dime to any kind of tax system in this country. So that's one example, right? But 0.95
00:14:29.140 it's it's so bad i mean there's been over 1.7 billion in just recent tracking including hotel
00:14:36.340 accommodations and shelter relief spent on asylum seekers support the interim federal health program 0.88
00:14:42.500 alone which is basically health care free health care for these non-citizens these invaders and 1.00
00:14:49.000 that also includes not just your basic health care it includes dental care includes like therapy 1.00
00:14:53.580 all kinds of stuff that we don't know we don't get under our provincial health care programs
00:14:57.940 that program alone costs hundreds of millions processing an asylum claim averages around
00:15:04.980 sixteen thousand five hundred per person
00:15:07.300 a first-class plane ticket costs way less than that
00:15:13.160 this is unsustainable and unfair to canadian citizens who pay the taxes and wait in line
00:15:21.520 for the services many non-citizens particularly failed asylum claimants
00:15:25.900 whose temporary protections have ended or individuals not contributing in a net positive
00:15:31.960 way continue to access social supports housing assistance and health care all at our expense
00:15:39.320 all at the taxpayer expense. Now remigrating or remigration is the word that has been thrown
00:15:46.940 around a lot and that basically means the orderly repatriation or deportation of individuals without
00:15:52.760 legal status to remain or those whose claims have been rejected. Now this offers a clear fiscal
00:15:59.920 relief. Enforcing existing immigration laws, expediting removals for failed claimants and
00:16:05.340 ending benefits for those ineligible would reduce ongoing accommodation, health care,
00:16:11.000 legal processing and welfare related costs and would likely get them on their way out quicker.
00:16:16.680 A conservative estimates from the processing and support data suggest hundreds of millions
00:16:23.600 in annual savings could be realized through stricter enforcement and faster resolutions.
00:16:31.020 Now, the wasteful spending and the bigger picture. Canada's federal expenses in 2024 to 2025
00:16:39.600 totaled around $547 billion, with revenues of about $511 billion. So public debt charges alone
00:16:48.900 hit $53 billion. So when you run a company, and I know, you know, people say, well, the government's
00:16:55.740 not a company, you cannot run a deficit for this long. So if you are bringing in $511 billion in
00:17:03.300 revenue, you can't spend more than that. And considering a lot of the money that the government
00:17:09.260 is spending is for unnecessary things that are not beneficial to the Canadian people or the
00:17:15.520 Canadian taxpayer, this can easily be solved. We should be spending less than we are taking in,
00:17:22.620 and that would also help us pay down the debt without incurring more debt.
00:17:27.900 Beyond foreign aid and immigration-related support, layers of bureaucracy, overlapping
00:17:32.200 programs and inefficiencies exist across government. My approach, or I guess you could
00:17:38.960 say a nationalist approach, doesn't mean slashing everything. It means ruthlessly auditing for waste
00:17:46.900 and redirecting every possible dollar to core priorities, secure borders, affordable housing
00:17:53.280 for citizens, and support for the most vulnerable Canadians. And I'm talking Canadians, not paper
00:18:00.460 Canadians. Even modest reductions in international aid, combined with immigration enforcement
00:18:06.280 savings, could cover a substantial portion of the $3.5 billion the PBO says is needed annually
00:18:13.780 to have chronic homelessness, like to reduce it by half. And if you add targeted capital
00:18:22.140 investments in housing stock, the math definitely becomes achievable. Although, you know, I keep
00:18:27.980 seeing things about Canadian companies leaving Canada and I don't blame them because you know
00:18:32.220 the solution to everything in Canada is more taxes and you can only push companies so far
00:18:38.960 before they decide that they're going to go to the US where they'll get tons of tax benefits for
00:18:43.180 opening a company down there and pay way less you know income tax on or federal and state tax
00:18:49.880 so why wouldn't you and they would be open to a larger market. So you hear the term the great
00:18:57.540 reset thrown around. And I'm not a proponent of the great reset as the way that WEF frames it or
00:19:05.180 defines it. But we need a Canada first reset. Canadians are generous people. This is very much
00:19:12.500 to our own detriment. Unfortunately, we've helped abroad for decades. But the generosity should
00:19:18.800 always begin at home. When our own citizens are homeless in record numbers, while billions leave
00:19:24.960 the country, support non-citizens, or fund foreign residences and causes, there is something
00:19:31.200 fundamentally out of balance here. Reducing international aid to essential humanitarian
00:19:36.440 levels, and I would argue we shouldn't be doing it at all, enforcing immigration laws strictly 0.97
00:19:41.940 and re-migrating those without a legal right to remain would generate meaningful savings.
00:19:48.400 And these savings, paired with smarter domestic allocation, could fund housing prevention
00:19:53.940 programs and rent-assisted needed to make significant measurable differences in homelessness
00:19:59.140 for Canadian citizens. And again, with the remigration, it's a domino effect, right? Now,
00:20:04.780 a bunch of jobs are freed up. People can maybe, you know, get a job that maybe we could use some
00:20:10.280 of that money that we would be funding immigrants' health care or, you know, non's health care with 0.95
00:20:15.080 to subsidize the astronomical cost of rent. But all this stuff would all come down in price 0.73
00:20:21.300 eventually with the you know remigration of the millions of people that shouldn't be here
00:20:25.980 this isn't about isolationism it's about sovereignty and priorities a strong nation
00:20:33.020 takes care of its own people first and we've seen this prior to the mass invasions of all of the
00:20:40.160 western countries but you know prior to that the a lot of the nordic countries um the northern
00:20:46.760 Europe countries were all about this they were all about being making a strong nation for their
00:20:52.160 people if you look at how they took care of the seniors in in places like Sweden and you know
00:20:58.020 the Netherlands and stuff like that they genuinely did care but of course now they're faced with the
00:21:03.000 same issues that we are which is a mass invasion of you know economic leeches basically the data
00:21:09.240 supports that we do have the resources we just need really the political will to redirect them
00:21:14.160 Thanks for listening, guys. If you agree that Canadian citizens deserve first claim on our national resources, demand accountability from your representatives. Our national resources, we are such a resource-heavy nation that we could be very similar to the UAE where people don't pay any tax.
00:21:34.180 they actually get dividends paid out to them because of the amount of resources. But all they
00:21:38.540 do is they, you know, spend our money, you know, recklessly, they give it to other countries,
00:21:42.960 and they take and take and take more from the working Canadian middle class, mostly citizen.
00:21:48.700 So we really could, this problem could be solved. And you know, don't let them fool you into
00:21:54.160 thinking it has to be solved with more bureaucracy, more, you know, money thrown at it. No,
00:21:59.420 We just need to spend less on things that are not Canada first and inject that money into our own people and our own sovereign nation.
