00:00:30.000
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. You have tuned into a special edition of the Rebel News
00:00:41.240
Livestream on this, a Wednesday, January the 15th, 2025. It's special because normally we're just
00:00:48.820
here Monday and Friday, and that's the only reason it's special for today, Hump Day. Folks,
00:00:56.100
I'm David Menzies, and my co-host, before I tell you who my co-host is, let me tell you a little bit
00:01:03.660
about her. Do you know that today is National Hat Day? My co-host does not celebrate National Hat Day.
00:01:12.720
I, on the other hand, celebrate National Hat Day 365 days a year. Why? Well, it's because I don't
00:01:22.560
want to scare female CBC reporters. More on that later. She is the she-devil with a sword. She is
00:01:30.060
the Khaleesi of Northern Alberta. She is the sensational Sheila Gunn-Reed. How you doing, Sheila?
00:01:38.140
David, I'm doing great. I have nothing else to say other than if there was a reason for us to have a
00:01:43.940
special live stream, it is that it is National Hat Day, so you and the hat can have your big day.
00:01:49.660
I never thought of that. It was a surprise for me, and by the way, Sheila,
00:01:53.760
I'm shocked. I, you know, even before I knew today was National Hat Day, and you've got the text
00:01:58.760
messages to prove it, I reached out to you to get your head size, and by the way, folks, it's seven
00:02:05.160
and one-eighths, in case you ever want to have it in your heart to give Sheila Gunn-Reed a headwear
00:02:12.200
gift, so I've got a very special hat coming Sheila's way. Oh, God, I'm scared. I'm frightened.
00:02:19.360
Next time we meet, but what I alluded to was not some made-up shtick. The most off question I get
00:02:27.080
asked, I think, is what's the deal with the hat? Some love it, some hate it, but I'll tell you what
00:02:34.980
the deal is. During the height of the pandemic, so we're going back to 2020, 2021, I believe it was
00:02:43.280
2020, the Yahoo Nation, self-described, was protesting every Saturday in front of Queen's Park.
00:02:51.780
This was really Ford Nation, but the Premier, well, he denounced his own base by calling them a bunch
00:02:58.540
of you. He's still doing that. Yes, still doing it. He's never given up on that. And there is an island,
00:03:05.740
a traffic island, at the south end of Queen's Park Crescent, and that's where the media typically show
00:03:12.340
up, and we were filming there, and there was a CBC reporter, and I looked at her, and she looked at me,
00:03:19.360
and hand to God, folks, she started running backwards. I've never seen a woman in high heels
00:03:25.400
run backwards so much. And she's getting to the edge of the island, and there's cars coming around
00:03:31.120
Queen's Park Crescent, like it's the Indy 500. So me, trying to be chivalrous, I ran over to her,
00:03:37.720
and I, you know, grabbed her hand. I go, whoa, watch out, you're going to fall off the traffic island.
00:03:42.440
And she stopped, and I said, what's happening? Because I was absolutely mystified, Sheila.
00:03:48.420
And she said, your hair, it was blowing in the wind. It scared me. You see, this was when all the
00:03:56.720
barber shops were closed down. Now, full disclosure, I'm not Brad Pitt, but I don't think I'm quite the
00:04:05.300
Frankenstein monster just yet. Not yet. So I was so, you know, I don't know, astonished by that comment.
00:04:13.540
I went to a department store and bought a hat. What do you think about that on National Hat Day,
00:04:22.700
I'm ashamed that you have admitted to being bullied by the CBC and having your feelings hurt by the CBC.
00:04:30.420
Yeah, I remember those times. You had a bit of a Rex Murphy new fro going on. Ginger new fro.
00:04:37.720
So I just got accustomed to it, and I wasn't so much bullied. I would call it something that the
00:04:44.300
left and the CBC always campaign against, body shaming. But I guess they don't practice what
00:04:51.800
they preach. Funny the left would do something like that, Sheila.
00:04:56.100
Do you know, I am going through these potential candidates for the Liberal Party of Canada
00:05:02.320
leadership, and it is nothing but not practicing what they preach. Jamie Batiste, you are next.
00:05:09.160
Then it's Karina Gould. But we should tell everybody what we're doing here today on this
00:05:12.760
very special live stream. The reason we're doing this is because there's just so much news
00:05:16.580
coming out about, you know, the Liberal Party leadership and with Trump tariffs, that it's difficult
00:05:24.240
for us to get to them in reports. So we thought we would just sit down and talk about them
00:05:30.160
with you, completely unscripted, and react together. So that's what we're doing here.
00:05:34.840
If you're watching us on YouTube, thanks for sticking it out over there. 1.7 million of you
00:05:40.660
continue to do that. But I should let you know that YouTube remains, despite a change in the
00:05:46.360
United States administration, a censorship platform. So we are completely demonetized over
00:05:53.180
there, and they will censor your comments that are a little bit too truthy about a multitude of
00:05:58.740
things. So if you want to support a company that cares about your ability to speak your mind and
00:06:04.700
allows you to support us out of the goodness of your heart, unlike what Justin Trudeau makes you do
00:06:08.920
with the mainstream media, just reaching into your pocket so you can give those grayish blobs of
00:06:15.340
homogenous opinions over at the CBC some more money, go on over to Rumble. Rumble has a special
00:06:24.880
ability for you to support us by leaving us a paid chat called a Rumble rant. If it's over the $5 US
00:06:32.380
cutoff, we are obligating ourselves to read it on air. But again, I see this every week,
00:06:37.820
every live stream, basically. Don't let that be the bar for entry, because we frequently make time to
00:06:42.860
read the chats that fall underneath that $5 US cutoff. I should tell you and David that I cannot go late
00:06:49.560
today because I'm running up to meetings. And I have to film my weekly gun show today because it's
00:06:55.580
Wednesday and gun show comes out seven, Eastern nine mountains. So I have to get that done so that
00:07:02.220
our friends can edit it and make me look smarter and more articulate than I actually am.
00:07:07.460
And you got to get prepped for Davos too, Sheila, right?
00:07:10.440
Well, we didn't want to tell anybody, David, but you just told everybody. You know, the World Economic
00:07:19.300
Forum is coming up as David just blabbed to the world. So anyways, we're not sure how we're going
00:07:26.760
to be covering that, but it is live streamed. And you know, it's a it's a strange time. I remember
00:07:35.080
being at the United Nations Climate Change Conference, right after Trump was elected,
00:07:40.820
and it was like a funeral for those people. So I imagine the World Economic Forum is going to be a
00:07:46.540
little bit the same. But you know, their people like Mark Carney and Christopher Freeland, although
00:07:52.420
she hasn't made an official announcement, are potentially running to lead, well, the Liberal
00:07:58.420
Party of Canada and thus become the very, very, very short lived Prime Minister of Canada until we get
00:08:04.080
the opportunity to send these people packing. So there's a lot of things talk that we can talk
00:08:08.900
about. And Sheila, speaking of the Liberal Party of Canada leadership contest, I got to ask you
00:08:14.720
something in passing just to make sure I don't need my hearing examined again. Did you say Jamie
00:08:22.580
Batiste? Yeah, yeah. I mean, they're just this guy. He's the guy who said that skinny Indigenous
00:08:32.560
girls are probably on math. He also said that with all the squeals and grunting, men's tennis
00:08:42.980
resembles gay pornography. Now, I've never I don't watch male tennis or tennis at all, for that matter,
00:08:51.380
or pornography. So I'll take Jamie's word for it. But I mean, exactly. Exactly. Jamie. But anyways,
00:09:00.200
he wants to run to lead the Liberals, and he's really leaning into his Mi'kmaq indigeneity. So
00:09:07.620
we'll see how that goes. But I mean, I tried to scrum him back in 2019 in Atlantic Canada,
00:09:14.820
and he pretty much ran away from me. And if memory serves me, this is also the guy that goes to the
00:09:20.200
gym and his workout togs. Communist shirt. Yeah. Consists of the hammer and sickle logo. I mean,
00:09:27.840
why not wear a swastika, given the number of deaths under communism? How does this guy raise,
00:09:34.740
what is it, $300,000, Sheila, for the cost of entry? $350,000. I guess that remains to be seen.
00:09:42.060
He could just be an also-ran. We'll see. But anyways, we've got to, more importantly, or I guess
00:09:51.660
more significantly, Mark Carney is set to announce his official intentions tomorrow in Edmonton. I
00:10:00.120
wonder which of the Randys is resigning to allow him to run in Edmonton Centre. But as the Liberals
00:10:06.980
tend to do, they don't like to talk to Canadians. You know, Justin Trudeau, he cancelled all of his
00:10:11.720
Christmas end-of-the-year interviews with the media, and they were all boo-hooing because their guy,
00:10:18.620
their sugar daddy wasn't talking to them. And then he went and did a series of interviews
00:10:22.260
in the United States, I don't know, campaigning for the Kamala Harris voters vote. But Mark Carney
00:10:30.100
is doing the same. He went on Jon Stewart and talked about how we can be friends with benefits
00:10:38.540
with the United States. These people just use phrases that gross me out. Anyway.
00:10:42.500
What are they making up there of the overtures and sort of trolling to Canada about being a part of
00:10:50.640
the United States? Well, I mean, the bottom line is it's not going to happen.
00:10:58.860
The overture, I mean... Because you don't want to be with...
00:11:04.280
We're proud. We find you very attractive. But we're not moving in with you. It's not you. It's us.
00:11:17.820
We have... We do things a little differently in Canada. We believe in providing...
00:11:23.280
I just want to tell you, before you go any further, I'm up for it. We're up for it. Whatever you do
00:11:26.940
differently. We want to experiment too. What do you guys want?
00:11:30.200
We can be... I'm grossed out. You want, like... We can be friends.
00:11:35.360
There can be a few benefits, Jon. Friends with benefits, but not...
00:11:39.400
We're not going to commit all the way. Benefits of trade. Benefits of, you know, defense.
00:11:45.660
Right. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, no. We'll be cool about it.
00:11:49.480
We won't levy tariffs on all your goods as retribution for you not going out with us.
00:11:56.080
We respect your boundaries. Sheila, speaking of gay porn, were you picking up a homoerotic vibe
00:12:04.740
in that discussion we just saw? Let's pretend... Just pretend for a second that that wasn't
00:12:11.000
completely scripted. That was completely scripted. It wasn't spontaneous. And it was just weird. Like,
00:12:18.240
it's just gross. Again, we've got two people pretending to do comedy while answering seriously.
00:12:26.080
To Trump's incessant trolling. They still don't realize that they are the butt of the joke.
00:12:32.840
It's exhausting at this point. Like I explained last week, it's really not about taking us over,
00:12:41.740
about taking us over economically or militaristically. It's about the fact that Canada is so weak and broken
00:12:50.020
and demoralized and our military is so decrepit and woke. Our economy's in the crapper that if it were
00:12:58.840
not for the benevolence of our single largest trading partner to the south of us, we could be taken over,
00:13:06.820
not just by the United States, but by anybody. That's the truth in the joke that nobody else seems
00:13:12.980
to be addressing. But you know what, Sheila, from a strategic point of view, and I'll apply this to
00:13:20.580
Carney just as I'll apply it to the Prime Minister. Why are you going on The Stewart Show? Why are you
00:13:29.580
going on MSNBC, LSD? Why are you going on CNN? The numbers aren't there. There's not an audience.
00:13:39.800
And also, as you can tell by the cheering, you're preaching to the converted. You do what Doug Ford
00:13:46.960
did. And I call him as I see him. So even though Ford is a cosmic disappointment to me as far as being
00:13:53.640
a conservative, when he went on US airwaves, it was Fox News. Why? The numbers. A. B. You are speaking
00:14:03.100
to Trump Nation when you go to Fox News. Why don't these dummies like Trudeau and Carney realize
00:14:09.740
that? Because they're not campaigning against Pierre Polyev. They're campaigning against Trump.
00:14:20.000
And so if you're campaigning against Trump, where do you go? Yeah. You go and talk to the anti-Trump
00:14:25.340
lunatics, the ones that are still in the cult, that still watch the likes of MSNBC, CNN, which is the
00:14:33.720
noise at the doctor's office, or Jon Stewart. Mark Carney wasn't done, though. He said that he's an
00:14:49.160
He couldn't be more inside unless you were inside of Trudeau's clothes with him. Anyways.
00:14:56.720
It's really difficult for a candidate to come in who is saddled with the policies that are
00:15:07.560
Look at you trying to preserve the relationship all of a sudden.
00:15:12.260
Let's say the candidate wasn't part of the government. Let's say the candidate did have
00:15:18.540
a lot of economic experience. Let's say the candidate did deal with crises. Let's say
00:15:23.480
the candidate had a plan to deal with the challenges in the here and now.
00:15:32.420
Wow. That's... So you're going to be coming in there to say, I have not been in the government.
00:15:39.940
You know, Sheila, when he says he's an outsider, when he poses as an agent for change, we know
00:15:49.640
the precise opposite is true. He's the ultimate insider. He'd be the same guy that would invoke
00:15:54.400
the Emergencies Act against the trucker convoy. He'd be gung-ho in freezing bank accounts, vaccine
00:16:02.740
mandates, you name it. You know, it's kind of like maybe you're too young, Sheila, but I remember
00:16:09.560
an ad campaign back in the 70s was for ABC detergent, which was a bit of a bargain brand
00:16:16.220
compared to, say, Tide. And the tagline was this, because they would wash the clothes in
00:16:22.500
the National Leader detergent and ABC detergent, and they'd bring the clothes out. And the tagline
00:16:29.100
was, can you tell the difference? I can't tell the difference, meaning they were equally
00:16:34.100
clean. Well, that's the same with Carney and Trudeau. I can't tell a difference here.
00:16:39.400
The guy could not be more of an insider. I'm sure he sees the inside of the prime minister's
00:16:45.500
office sometimes more than he sees his own house. Let's go back. Let's just go back. He
00:16:51.100
was Justin Trudeau's advisor on COVID. I'm not sure where he has a background in medicine, but he was
00:17:00.600
the advisor to the prime minister's office on COVID. And then he was more recently acting as the de facto
00:17:07.800
finance minister as the economic advisor to the leader of the Liberal Party, which was his way of
00:17:16.500
getting around ethics rules, right? Because he wasn't technically working for the government. He
00:17:21.840
was working for the Liberal Party, which means that his equity firms were still able to lobby the
00:17:28.900
government for preferential treatment and access to Canadian pensions. So to say that he's an outsider
00:17:38.580
is crazy. The only thing that he is outside of is accountability because of these little loopholes
00:17:45.640
that they keep pulling. He's the unelected finance minister who is technically advising the leader of
00:17:51.600
the Liberal Party and not the prime minister who happens to be the exact same person. He also shares all
00:17:58.180
of Justin Trudeau's goals with regard to climate change. He said that Greta Thunberg, he was part of her
00:18:06.700
movement. Then he's completely on board with this net zero nonsense. He's also completely on board with
00:18:17.820
the Liberals treatment of the Freedom Convoy. He advised the government or sorry, he published an op ed,
00:18:24.080
which was like a wink, wink, bat signal to the government to do exactly what they ended up doing.
00:18:29.500
And that was to treat the Freedom Convoy as seditionists and freeze their funds. He wrote
00:18:37.580
an op ed saying we need to basically be hunter killers of the financial supply chain for the Freedom
00:18:44.240
Convoy, which is ultimately what Freeland went on to do. So to say that he is an outsider would be
00:18:51.020
something only someone as dumb and ill-informed as Jon Stewart would believe.
00:18:56.260
And Sheila, I want to quickly remind you of something. You began your rant by saying you
00:19:02.120
don't recall Mark Carney getting a medical degree. Sheila, don't you know when you're a member of
00:19:08.800
the left, you don't need a medical degree, not when it comes to...
00:19:13.080
Yes, that's right. I mean, I discovered that in November outside the Sky Dome in Toronto
00:19:18.480
when we were doing the Taylor Swift Streeters. And Taylor Swift the day before had sent out
00:19:25.440
a tweet along with Toronto's now dearly departed, well, not so dearly departed chief medical health
00:19:33.940
officer, Cruella Davila, urging Torontonians to get their COVID-19 shots and up-to-date boosters.
00:19:42.020
And of course, the zombies going into the concert all said, oh yeah, yeah, we'll listen, we'll listen.
00:19:46.140
And I went, wow, look at that. Taylor Swift, in addition to being a singer and can play the guitar,
00:19:52.340
she's also a virologist all of a sudden. So yeah, when you're on the left, you don't need the
00:20:01.220
Oh, but they're the first people to say, but you're not a journalist. I'm like, oh, you know,
00:20:05.660
I have the same journalism degree that Peter Mansbridge has. So how's that?
00:20:13.540
Let's go into this next tweet from Patrick Wheeler. Weiler. I know you're saying the same
00:20:20.200
thing I am. Who? And I'm a, I'm a political watcher. And this is the first time I ever heard
00:20:28.920
of this back picture. Seriously, dead serious. I'm glued to committee. I'm glued to the House
00:20:35.180
of Commons. So I was going in the background, I'm clipping it. I know all these people backwards
00:20:39.560
and forwards. And then I was like, what, what, who? Anyways, this, he is the Liberal Member
00:20:45.560
of Parliament for West Vancouver, in case you care. And he is endorsing Mark Carney, who has
00:20:55.060
not even officially announced yet. Are you ready for the coronation? He says, in the hundreds
00:21:03.940
of conversations I've had with constituents in West Vancouver, Sunshine Coast, Sea to Sky
00:21:08.340
country, one name stands out, Mark Carney. He has the leadership and experience that Canada
00:21:16.760
needs right now. And apparently he's globally respected, understands the challenging geopolitical
00:21:22.820
landscape and has the economic insight to steer us through the difficulties ahead. I think
00:21:27.220
his economic insight actually steered us into the difficulties we're now living through, thanks
00:21:33.820
to being in the ear of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
00:21:39.240
Well, you know, a bit of a premature, if you will, endorsement, because as you said, Sheila,
00:21:46.080
he hasn't officially announced, and nor has Fraulein Freeland. But on that note, I'd love
00:21:54.360
to throw, because I think super producer Olivia has dredged it up, today's front page of the
00:22:00.800
Toronto Sun. You got to check it out, Sheila. There you go. It's the contenders. They're all
00:22:06.900
in boxing gloves and gym attire. Sheila, you know what? You must take back the nasty comments
00:22:13.880
you made on Monday about Freeland. Look at that bod. She is fit and trim. She's in full fighting
00:22:21.760
form. I mean, come on. You were very cruel to her on Monday, describing her physique and her choice of
00:22:29.800
clothes. I will take nothing back. In fact, I will be meaner than ever before. Yeah, this is kind of
00:22:36.960
silly and nonsensical. I see Jamie Batiste looking extra happy. I think he's the only one I know of the
00:22:42.820
bunch that actually goes to the gym. And you know how we know he goes to the gym? Because he wears
00:22:46.640
socialist t-shirts at the gym and then posts about it. Well, you know what? I just want to see who did
00:22:51.380
take this photo. Oh, Sheila, now I take it back. This is not a real photograph. It's a photo
00:22:59.540
illustration. That means, as old timers used to say, trick photography. They've put Freeland's body
00:23:08.160
and others on real fighters, or sorry, their heads on real fighters' bodies. So I take it back, Sheila.
00:23:17.080
We've done that to you in the past. You know, with your famous, the menzoid shirt.
00:23:24.300
Before we change lanes from the anticipated coronation of Mark Carney, who is set to make
00:23:32.660
an announcement at an undisclosed location tomorrow in Edmonton, somewhere within the riding
00:23:40.000
of Edmonton Center, is my best guess, because that's Randy Boasno's riding, and he's going to
00:23:46.060
lose. He's going to lose. So you may as well just sacrifice yourself on the bonfire of liberalism and
00:23:52.600
step aside so Mark Carney can do his best to win. But I don't even think Mark Carney can win that riding
00:23:58.720
at this point. We'll change lanes to tariffs. But Sheila, you know what? We should point out,
00:24:03.260
Ezra had a brilliant monologue the other day about this. Let's say on March 9th, it is indeed Mark
00:24:09.080
Carney, who is now the new liberal leader. And let's just say we go to the end of October.
00:24:17.240
They rag the puck that much for the next federal election. He is basically the Prime Minister of
00:24:24.860
Canada without a seat, you know, and without being elected. And incredibly, our Constitution allows
00:24:32.540
that to be a matter of fact. It's not just an outlandish speculation. It happened in Alberta
00:24:40.540
not all that long ago with Jim Prentice. He was elected the leader of the PCs, but he did not yet
00:24:46.780
have a seat. And so our premier of the province did not like he wasn't in the legislature. So it
00:24:56.380
happens. And that's just a quirk of our Westminster parliamentary democracy system. We've got a chat
00:25:03.060
and then we've got a rumble ad read and then we'll change lanes to tariffs because apparently trying
00:25:09.420
your best to avoid tariffs is anti-Canadian and being like Doug Ford, being average serial and
00:25:19.000
inviting them. That's pro-Canada. And it's funny to see who Doug Ford is cozying up to. He should
00:25:24.920
have been cozying up to Daniel Smith. Instead, he's cozying up to Dominic LeBlanc, big liberal suck up.
00:25:30.640
But anyways, Billy Howard gives us five bucks and says, if Trump wants to troll Justin,
00:25:35.200
he should discuss international affairs in a meeting with the chairman of the International
00:25:39.740
Democracy Union. Do you know who that is? I do. Sorry, who is it, Sheila? Who is the chairman of
00:25:47.580
the International Democracy Union? I don't know. It's Stephen Harper. Oh, so if yeah, if Trump wanted
00:25:57.800
to severely troll Justin Trudeau, wouldn't it be great if he had a high level meeting with Stephen
00:26:03.100
Harper, who's actually weighed in on this stuff and who is bright enough to be able to articulate
00:26:07.420
what it means to be Canadian besides saying, er, uh, it means we're not Americans, like Justin Trudeau
00:26:13.780
did. Um, let's, uh, read this, um, ad from our friends at rumble and then we will change lanes
00:26:22.880
to tariffs. So this, uh, sponsorship is from rumble and it's one that's incredibly important to the
00:26:28.040
survival of their company, but also ours as well, because without rumble, we don't have an
00:26:33.000
uncensored means by which we can talk to you. When rumble first started in 2013, they built the
00:26:39.040
platform for the small creator. They didn't censor or have biases. They were fair and treated all
00:26:43.780
creators equally. No one thought platforms would censor political conversation or censor opinions
00:26:48.200
on COVID, but they did. Facebook admitted they felt pressure from the Biden and Harris administration.
00:26:53.680
Rumble, however, did not. They held the line. In Justin Trudeau's Canada, it's illegal to say,
00:26:58.920
hold the line. You'll end up in court on the longest mischief trial ever. Ask Tamara Leach,
00:27:06.660
uh, the Democrats and the establishment attacked daily for giving rumble a voice to talk to you.
00:27:16.000
Uh, they're attacked in corporate media. They are attacked by governments like France. They're
00:27:19.820
attacked from brand advertisers who refuse to work with them. Corporate America is fighting to remove
00:27:24.300
speech. Rumble, however, is fighting to keep it. Rumble, though, won't survive with brand advertisers
00:27:29.460
just like us. They don't get much of it. Watching our show right now, the way you are on rumble is the
00:27:34.780
most they can ask from you. I'll ask you one more thing. Share the rumble link with your friends. But
00:27:39.980

00:28:16.660
So, all right, let's switch over. By the way, Sheila, to parlay what you said about holding
00:28:23.620
the line, doesn't the band Toto have a song called Hold the Line? Is that song now banned
00:28:29.860
by Ottawa Bylaw? Yeah, you know, these people are crazy. Hold the line. I see like liberals saying,
00:28:38.920
we've got to hold the line when we're dealing with Donald Trump. And it's like, excuse me?
00:28:42.560
That's an illegal phrase. That's hate speech, jerks. You know, the honking. If you honk horns
00:28:49.240
for Palestine, great. The police will come give you an escort through town. You honk the horn for
00:28:56.040
freedom, though, and you're slapped with a multi-million dollar lawsuit from the busybodies
00:29:00.640
in Ottawa. Oh, but Sheila, we know from Yarra Sachs, Canada's number one self-hating Jew, that
00:29:06.680
honk honk is an acronym, her words, folks, for Heil Hitler. You're not advocating for Nazism on the
00:29:15.660
streets, are you? Yarra Sachs is going to lose her seat in the most epic and beautiful way.
00:29:22.100
Couldn't happen to a nicer lady. She so deserves it. Okay, let's go to a post from Truth Social
00:29:28.580
from Donald Trump. Can we bring that post up? Donald Trump announces the external revenue
00:29:38.620
service to collect tariffs, duties and revenues from foreign sources. I'm sorry about your luck,
00:29:44.520
David, but this is coming to you. For far too long, we have relied on taxing our great people
00:29:48.880
using the internal revenue service. Through soft and pathetically weak trade agreements,
00:29:53.600
the American economy has delivered growth and prosperity to the world while taxing ourselves.
00:29:57.540
It's time to change that. I am today announcing that I will create the external revenue service
00:30:04.480
to collect our tariffs, duties and all revenue that will come from foreign sources. We will begin
00:30:10.140
charging those that make money off us with trade and they will start paying finally their fair share.
00:30:16.080
January 20th, 2025 will be the birth date of the external revenue service. Make America great again.
00:30:23.900
Well, Sheila, even if those tariffs against Canada come into effect, and I'm still on the fence about that,
00:30:32.980
whether it's true or a negotiating tactic, and we're going to find out, I guess, on Monday afternoon next
00:30:38.660
week. But from an American perspective, from a Donald Trump perspective, I get it. When you are having
00:30:48.960
your lunch eaten, NATO is a perfect example. So many countries, ours included, are deadbeats. And I know
00:30:58.440
Justin Trudeau said, yeah, we'll get our funding for NATO up to the prescribed amount by, I think it was
00:31:05.000
2032. We just have to keep electing him. No, no, it doesn't work that way, Justin. So from an American
00:31:14.800
first perspective, I get this. Sure. Yeah. Donald Trump isn't the prime minister of Canada. He's not
00:31:23.560
supposed to act in our best interest. He's supposed to act in the best interest of Americans. And so if
00:31:29.420
that, this time, he finds himself being in an adversarial position with Canada,
00:31:36.380
I can't fault him for that. Like, I don't like it. But that's what he was elected to do. What would
00:31:44.440
have been great is if we had ever elected a prime minister in the last nine years, who felt the same
00:31:50.420
way about Canada, but we just never did. He was ready to do everything for the rest of the world
00:31:56.940
at the expense of Canadians. Now, but here's the big question, Sheila,
00:32:02.540
when it comes to, is he genuine with these 25% tariffs? Let's look at the auto sector in Canada,
00:32:11.120
especially in Ontario. I think we're talking 60 to 70% of the vehicles produced here are destined for
00:32:18.540
U.S. export. Now, if you were to slap that tariff on them, first of all, the cost for Americans,
00:32:25.540
that vehicle would be uncompetitive with a 25% uptick on the sticker. But also logistically,
00:32:35.840
if you had Ford saying, oh, okay, then, well, we better build them domestically, that cannot happen
00:32:43.620
overnight. You know, I mean, I picked Ford because we did that corrective video about the Oakville
00:32:50.680
plant, which is being retooled right now to make the very profitable and very desirable Ford F-250
00:33:01.560
Super Duty pickup trucks. And the Ford USA spokesman told me, Sheila, because, you know, the tariff thing
00:33:08.760
was just 48 hours old at that time. He said, Dave, it doesn't matter about the tariff because
00:33:14.900
there's two other plants in the U.S. that build those pickup trucks. They're running around the
00:33:21.160
clock. They are at capacity. You can't add capacity. So what I'm saying is that if Ford was to build
00:33:28.480
a new, a third F-250 plant, well, you can't do that overnight, Sheila.
00:33:34.520
Yeah, I think maybe it's the auto parts sector that might be hit by this. I really don't know.
00:33:42.300
But if you look at Dominic LeBlanc, he doesn't know what to do either. Dominic LeBlanc, who is,
00:33:48.280
I think, acting a bit like, I guess, the everything minister right now. I think he might, I think,
00:33:55.520
and it's a problem that we don't even know, but I think he might be the deputy prime minister right
00:33:59.340
now. I don't know. He's the finance minister replacing Chrystia Freeland, who dropped that atomic
00:34:04.120
bomb on Justin Trudeau when she quit, resigned. He tried to fire her and she's like, you can't fire
00:34:11.220
me. I resign. Anyway, Dominic LeBlanc, Justin Trudeau's babysitter, figuratively and literally,
00:34:21.980
says that all options are on the table, including cutting off Alberta's oil and gas to the United
00:34:27.820
States, which we sell at a reduced rate to them because we're shoehorned into a monopoly,
00:34:31.740
thanks to the Liberals not allowing us to build export pipelines. But Dominic LeBlanc is a ruddy
00:34:37.980
faced moron because it's not his oil and gas to stop selling to the United States. This is
00:34:44.220
completely undermining the efforts of Premier Daniel Smith to at least pull one sector of
00:34:50.160
the Canadian economy out of the fire. So, Sheila,
00:34:53.820
the national immunity crisis if energy exports were on the table. So, is your government in any
00:35:02.400
way considering the restriction of oil from Alberta to the United States?
00:35:08.900
So, what we've said is that the only responsible thing for the national government is to acknowledge
00:35:14.300
that all options are on the table. But at what point do you deploy what option, at what level?
00:35:22.460
Obviously, we want to see what the American action is next week, if it comes next week. So,
00:35:28.940
I've been hanging around politics long enough to know that hypothetical questions are like big
00:35:33.660
bear traps that you can fall into. That feels like one. But I'm, I think as the, I'm too big to land
00:35:43.300
bear trap. Doug and I would. So, I think we need, I think we need to be ready to deploy
00:35:51.380
all of the measures necessary to defend the Canadian economy. But we're not going to publicly
00:35:56.020
speculate what is or what isn't an option. Let's see what the Americans do next week. And let's work
00:36:02.420
with premiers and business leaders to find the best response for Canada.
00:36:05.540
Yeah. So, what an unfortunate surname, Sheila, LeBlanc, because it sounds like he's shooting
00:36:14.180
a lot of LeBlanc right now. And as we discussed on Monday, the sad reality is, if we get into a trade
00:36:25.380
war with the US, if we go tariff for tariff, this country at less than one-tenth the size of the US
00:36:32.820
is going to lose and we're going to lose badly. So, you know, hopefully, you know, I just wonder,
00:36:39.940
and I'd love to just see the left lose their marbles about this. Team Trump knows that this is a lame
00:36:48.020
duck federal government. They read the polls just like everybody else does, Sheila. Why not have
00:36:54.500
Pierre Poliaf come down to Mar-a-Lago and have an adult discussion? I mean, but first of all,
00:37:00.820
can you imagine, you know, the left in Canada going out of their mind by what they would call
00:37:09.220
something that's inappropriate? But let's not kid the kidders here. He's going to be, by all
00:37:14.260
likelihood, by all indicators, the next prime minister. That's who I would want to talk to if
00:37:20.580
I'm President Trump. What say you, Sheila? I mentioned this earlier, but do you see
00:37:28.740
what Doug Ford is doing here? Like he always does, cozying up with the liberals, my friend Justin,
00:37:33.620
my friend Christian, now it's his friend Dominic LeBlanc. And I noticed yesterday he was bad-mouthing
00:37:41.940
Premier Daniel Smith. Doug Ford, if you had a couple of brain cells to rub together,
00:37:47.940
you should have been down there with her. She could have been the relationship broker that
00:37:54.900
sort of built at least an open line of communication between Doug Ford and the Trump administration.
00:38:01.860
Trump very clearly likes Premier Daniel Smith. The Western governors all like her. She's making
00:38:06.740
inroads with regard to energy. And she started that like the second Trump was elected. Doug Ford did not
00:38:14.420
do that. He doesn't have any foresight on this issue. And he's cozying up to the people that Trump
00:38:20.100
doesn't like. A lot of times it just comes like Trump's foreign policy sometimes comes down to,
00:38:25.780
do I like you or do I not? And right now, Trump does not like the Trudeau liberals. So why is Doug Ford
00:38:35.300
affiliating himself with the Trudeau liberals instead of doing everything he can to distance
00:38:39.780
himself from the dumpster fire that Trump doesn't like and they don't like him?
00:38:45.140
You know, Sheila, that is an excellent question. And I defer to the only answer that makes sense from
00:38:51.860
some of the insiders I've spoken to, which is to say, and it's disgraceful if you ask me, but the Doug
00:38:59.860
Ford people with the Ontario Progressive Conservatives do not like, very much do not like,
00:39:07.460
the Pierre Polyev federal conservative people. So there's warring factions. And I would say,
00:39:16.020
if I could get them all in a room, come on, guys, we're all supposed to be conservatives here. Well,
00:39:21.220
I know that's a stretch goal, as Kathleen Wynne would say with Doug Ford. But seriously, let's
00:39:28.340
determine who the real enemy is and get rid of all this internal bickering.
00:39:32.660
I don't understand why Doug Ford wouldn't want to do a little bit of learning from the federal
00:39:42.260
conservatives who have, in a very short matter of time, two short years, turned the party around
00:39:49.380
from a party that lost a very winnable election to the party that is going to absolutely smash the
00:39:56.740
liberals into dust. Why wouldn't Doug Ford say, man, we can stand to learn a little something from
00:40:03.300
those people there. But he's not. He's not. I don't know why he's cozying up to losers.
00:40:08.740
And you know what, Sheila, it doesn't have to be conjecture for him. If anyone is aware
00:40:14.580
of a quick political turnaround, it is, drumroll please, Doug Ford. We go back to January 2018,
00:40:22.900
when Patrick Brown was forced out amidst scandal and the knowledge that this is not going to be the
00:40:30.500
guy to win as a majority government in Ontario, because first he threw the social conservatives
00:40:36.980
under the bus. Then he threw the fiscal conservatives under the bus. And basically that's everybody.
00:40:44.020
So in January, he was dismissed. Keep in mind, the election is June, less than six months away.
00:40:51.860
By March, the Ontario PCs had their new leader, Doug Ford, and he went on to win a super majority and
00:40:59.860
then another super majority. So what I'm saying, Sheila, is that you shouldn't need to sell this to
00:41:06.260
Doug Ford of all people. Doug Ford was happy to pick up those social conservatives and then throw
00:41:13.220
them to the wolves also. Yeah, that's true. You know, you just, if there are, there are a couple
00:41:20.180
of things you cannot trust in this country. It's anything that comes out of Justin Trudeau's mouth
00:41:25.220
and Doug Ford's PCs. Um, God only knows what you're going to get out of them. Let's, uh,
00:41:30.980
Doug Ford's what did you say? PCs, progressive conservatives. Oh, okay. I thought you said another
00:41:37.780
kind of naughty word. And anyway, I leave those sort of things up to you. Um, you're the one that
00:41:45.060
brought up gay porn earlier, Sheila, not me. No, I didn't. Jamie Batiste did. And I was just simply
00:41:52.300
reiterating what Jamie Batiste was talking about. Um, we've got, um, some stuff that we need to talk to
00:41:57.840
talk about. Let's get through what's left of the tariffs nonsense. And then I think, uh, maybe we
00:42:03.800
should talk about the hostage deal. That doesn't seem like much of a deal at all. Okay. Um, the,
00:42:10.360
uh, former prime minister of Canada, Stephen Harper, who we talked about a little bit earlier,
00:42:16.180
uh, he's pushing back on Trump's comments about making Canada the 51st state, but, uh, I haven't
00:42:22.240
even seen this, but if I had to guess, he's doing it in a less than confrontational way, um, with our
00:42:29.560
American friends, probably strongly reiterating what it means to be a Canadian, as opposed to
00:42:34.600
how, uh, much better we are because we're not Americans. Um, according to president Trump,
00:42:41.900
about $200 billion a year protecting Canada went on saying he doesn't need, the U S doesn't need
00:42:47.420
Canada's lumber cars or dairy, and maybe even Canada should be a 51st state. Um, a lot of,
00:42:52.760
a lot, a lot out there just in a, just in a couple of weeks, you know, what's, what's your
00:42:57.280
reaction to all of it? Well, um, I, I must admit some degree of surprise. Um, uh, you know,
00:43:06.580
we've always, uh, I've, I was, you know, ran a effect our conservative party is a very, you
00:43:13.040
know, pro American pro Western party. I was probably the most pro American prime minister
00:43:19.300
of the history of our country. Um, I view our relationship with the United States as one
00:43:24.900
of Canada's great assets. You are closest neighbor, our, uh, vital security partner and, um, you
00:43:33.820
know, not just our friend and shared comrade in, in the pro propagation of the values of
00:43:40.960
the free and democratic world everywhere. And, and I've always viewed this as a tremendous
00:43:45.780
partnership. Um, uh, I understand that, you know, Donald Trump may want some changes in trade
00:43:53.700
arrangements, but I'm, I must admit to being shocked by some of the things he said. They're,
00:43:59.580
they're just not so, um, you know, first of all, we, we don't actually sell dairy into the United
00:44:05.720
States or sell almost none. So that, that, that's not true. Um, Canada, it is true that Canada
00:44:13.420
presently has a modest trade surplus with the United States. The reason Gabe, we do is because
00:44:19.340
you buy so much of our oil and gas. In fact, you buy it at a discount to world markets. It's
00:44:25.720
actually Canada that subsidizes the United States in this regard. And, um, you know, so maybe,
00:44:33.400
maybe, uh, my response is maybe Canadians, if Mr. Trump feels this way, should be looking at selling
00:44:38.360
their oil and gas to other people. Um, we, uh, we certainly want, have always wanted to do some of
00:44:44.340
that. Maybe now's the time to do it. And when we talk about subsidizing Canadian defense,
00:44:49.760
I don't know what he's talking about. We have a shared defense of North America. The United States
00:44:54.120
does that because it's in the vital interest of the United States. You want Canada to be a neutral
00:44:59.460
country. Um, you know, I, I, I, I kind of don't understand. I just don't understand that. Um,
00:45:06.620
I don't understand that. Are you, there's many things he's saying, even when you talk about
00:45:10.280
migrants, first of all, there's no major migrant flow from Canada to the United States. There's,
00:45:15.020
you've obviously got an enormous problem on the Southern border. I, by the way,
00:45:18.340
I'm completely sympathetic with Donald Trump's position on this. I thought the
00:45:21.300
policy of open borders of the Biden administration was, was, was disgraceful. I mean, I think it was
00:45:28.300
a violation of president. I know Joe Biden personally, I like him, but it was a violation of
00:45:33.340
his fundamental duties to the country. Um, and of course, president Trump wants to change that.
00:45:38.600
There is no migrant flow happening from Canada to the United States at any significant numbers.
00:45:44.960
And I'm going to tell you right now, drugs, guns, crime, most of those things flow North,
00:45:49.260
not South. A lot more flows into Canada from the United States than flows out of it. So.
00:45:55.440
Well, Shelley, he makes some excellent points, boy, I'm getting so nostalgic to see an adult in the
00:46:00.520
room, to see someone with gravitas, to see someone who comprehends all the issues and comes from
00:46:08.300
this, uh, debate with, uh, an informed perspective, because it's not what we get
00:46:14.040
from the liberals. And I don't want to be partisan about that, but it's just true, isn't it?
00:46:19.520
Yeah. I mean, again, it would be wonderful if we could sell our oil to other markets as well as
00:46:27.020
the United States, but it takes time to build pipelines. And Justin Trudeau would not allow us
00:46:33.260
to build export pipelines. That's just the way it is. Um, and not only would not allow us to build the
00:46:38.720
ones that were proposed, but also sabotaged any future pipeline proposals, um, through an,
00:46:46.020
an onerous regulatory process that is the prohibition in and of itself. And, you know,
00:46:52.680
it is true that the net flow of migrants flows North, not South. However, we have become a bit of an
00:46:59.360
exporter of terrorism and you know, how many American lives should be jeopardized by the fact
00:47:05.140
that, um, dangerous people are coming into Canada and using Canada as a launch pad to potentially
00:47:12.680
commit terrorism acts in, for example, upstate New York. I, again, I'm, I'm like Stephen Harper.
00:47:19.140
I'm sympathetic to Trump's positions and I can understand why Trump is adversarial with us
00:47:26.140
when you're dealing with Justin Trudeau, who neither understands the issues, um, that the
00:47:31.640
Americans are facing, but doesn't really seem to understand the issues that Canadians are facing
00:47:35.240
either. And, you know, on that, uh, issue of border security, as Stephen Harper said, yeah,
00:47:40.280
the lion's share of the problem by far is the Southern border. It's a sieve thanks to the Biden
00:47:45.880
Harris administration these past four years, but Trump's not even in the white house, Sheila.
00:47:51.860
And what have we seen? We've seen the province of Alberta and Ontario beef up border security on
00:47:58.960
their own. We've even had the feds announce, you know, they're investing in new drones, sniffer dogs,
00:48:04.920
and so on and so forth. And that's without him even being in office. So, uh, he does get results.
00:48:12.100
And by the way, I want to just say, I'm glad Stephen Harper cleared up, uh, the milk issue because
00:48:17.680
dairy always came up are, you know, we don't need your dairy. And I, it was always news to me,
00:48:22.640
Sheila, especially since we have the odious supply management system in Canada, which by the way,
00:48:29.500
was brought in by Justin's alleged father, Pierre Elliott Trudeau. Um, I never thought we were an
00:48:36.180
exporter of dairy, uh, to the U S and, uh, you know, I guess Stephen Harper, um, you know, clarified that,
00:48:44.100
you know, when I did, when I filled in for Ezra on his first monologue on Friday, I did seven humorous
00:48:50.180
reasons. Hopefully they were humorous why Americans want nothing to do with Canada. And, and one was
00:48:55.420
milk because unlike the U S we sell milk in plastic bags here. Um, we don't sell milk in plastic bags
00:49:05.120
here, only there, but there's more parts of this country than just there. Well, I'm talking about
00:49:10.440
the center of the universe when it comes to Canada and, um, what Americans call whole milk,
00:49:15.560
we call homo milk. I mean, imagine that Sheila homo milk in plastic bags. I guess we're getting
00:49:23.260
close to gay porn again, but you know, yeah, I mean, it is a fundamental misunderstanding of
00:49:31.840
the food supply chain in this country. If you think we're exporting milk to the United States,
00:49:37.760
excuse me, we're a country that would rather spill milk on the ground, making it more expensive for
00:49:42.980
poor people in Canada than export it to the United States. And folks, that's not a joke.
00:49:50.180
There are farmers that they're obliged to dump perfectly good milk, uh, because they're going
00:49:57.360
to exceed quota. And, uh, we had an example of that last year, didn't we? I think it was in the
00:50:03.180
Niagara Falls area, a dairy farmer went on social media. Uh, he's gone really quiet. I think the,
00:50:08.560
the dairy people, uh, really wrapped his knuckles, but he showed the video of, you know,
00:50:16.100
gallons and gallons or liters and liters, if you prefer a milk, just going down the drain. When
00:50:23.120
we have food bank use at a record high in this country, that's despicable.
00:50:29.180
Yeah. I mean, I think they call the Canadians colloquially in Bellingham, Washington, the
00:50:36.040
red plague, because we descend on the Costco there and buy up all the milk and the cheese,
00:50:41.720
thus irritating the locals because Bellingham is sort of right across the border. They call
00:50:46.220
us the red plague. They really do. Um, and that's because we will travel across the border to buy
00:50:50.780
affordable milk and cheese because the quota artificially inflates the price of milk here. So
00:50:55.980
no, we're not exporting it. Um, Sheila, on that point, does that not speak volumes of the screw job
00:51:02.380
we have in Canada, where, when people from BC go to Washington, the red plague, as you called them
00:51:09.700
and buy up the milk and cheese, because right off the bat, you're taking a 30% haircut with the dollar
00:51:17.780
differential. And even with that, it is still way cheaper to get your dairy products, um,
00:51:25.380
in us dollars than it is to buy the domestic, uh, products. It's, it's a fake market. It's,
00:51:31.760
it's a, it's a monopolistic system here where the prices are artificially fixed.
00:51:37.200
Uh, before we move on from this, just, uh, one more thing on this and then we'll get into,
00:51:44.240
uh, the hostage situation because I cannot go late. Um, so we'll talk about this one video,
00:51:52.280
uh, do an ad read and then we'll get into the hostage, uh, deal deal. I'm not sure if it's a deal,
00:51:59.160
um, that is struck to release, uh, some remaining Israeli hostages. Um, it is, uh, a video of Prime
00:52:09.900
Minister Trudeau and Doug Ford talking about preparing for Trump's tariffs and the so-called
00:52:16.480
Canadian unified response in retaliation. Go ahead. This afternoon, we're going to dig into the
00:52:25.160
response to possible tariffs. Uh, we, uh, will have already been and will continue to be united
00:52:31.300
in standing up for all Canadians, standing up for the national interest. Uh, and a big part of that
00:52:36.320
is actually defending and promoting the most successful economic relationship the world has
00:52:41.380
ever seen, um, in the face of shifting geopolitical pressures and realities. Uh, we are the best friend,
00:52:48.580
uh, to Canada and we can do lots of things together and we need to make sure that doing those things
00:52:54.660
together is as easy and as beneficial on both sides of the border as it possibly can be.
00:52:59.520
We also, uh, need to learn more about, uh, about where the government's retaliatory tariffs. I'm a,
00:53:06.920
I'm a strong believer in retaliatory tariffs. You, you can't, uh, let someone hit you over the head
00:53:11.700
with a sledgehammer without hitting him back twice as, twice as hard, in my opinion. We're also eager to,
00:53:17.640
uh, learn more about other considerations that we can hit back, uh, beyond, beyond the tariffs.
00:53:23.480
And lastly, we need to hear from the federal government about how quickly and effectively,
00:53:28.480
uh, the support comes to workers and businesses, uh, through, through, uh, the tariffs that,
00:53:36.200
that we receive. Uh, it's absolutely critical. We get it out to the people as quickly as possible.
00:53:43.340
You know, I've been in business for years, like a lot of people.
00:53:45.840
I think that's good. So that's, uh, Ford's, uh, solution is, uh, fight with the Americans
00:53:53.640
unnecessarily and just get handouts to preserve Ontario jobs. Uh, that's their solution here.
00:54:02.780
You know, Doug Ford talks about getting hit over the head with a hammer. His comments lead me to
00:54:07.720
believe that he's been hit over the head with a hammer multiple times. Like I just, this is the
00:54:11.460
best you can do is just sit there and say, Oh, we're going to hit you back with tariffs traces twice
00:54:17.060
as hard. Why don't you guys bring the temperature down a little bit instead of just being like this
00:54:23.880
with the Americans sit down and find, find a way to meet in the middle. Yeah. I totally agree with
00:54:29.640
you, Sheila. Uh, but maybe for Doug Ford, uh, I recall the tagline for jaws for, remember this time
00:54:36.880
it's personal. And, uh, I know this is a way out there theory, but his, uh, bread and butter
00:54:43.280
business is deco labels. And, uh, maybe he's worried about what the tariffs will do, uh, to that
00:54:50.700
little, uh, chestnut in the, uh, Ford family fortune. Just speculating here, of course.
00:54:57.160
You think they're buying a lot of stickers in Detroit? I'm not sure.
00:55:01.820
Oh yeah. For, oh yeah. Maybe that is a domestic,
00:55:06.620
uh, kind of, um, lion's share, uh, Sheila, especially stickers that say, Oh, I don't
00:55:13.320
know, going out of business. Yeah. No kidding. Yeah. Yeah. Fire sale.
00:55:21.700
Uh, we've got a message from five G free. I want to talk about the things that are,
00:55:26.400
that people are afraid to talk about who's in control of America's nukes. It's not Biden.
00:55:32.060
Yeah. That is frightening. Isn't it? Meanwhile, we have Russian ships off the coast of Florida and
00:55:36.320
full blown wars in Ukraine and Israel. The world is at its most unstable point since world war II
00:55:40.880
with nuclear weapons. The stakes are 10 times higher, just 10 times. I feel like it's more.
00:55:45.900
Um, how do people like you and I stay safe? Every prepper needs to have radio guard ACE,
00:55:51.260
the only FDA approved drug to treat radioactive fallout. Only the feds had it until now. That's
00:55:55.920
by rumble partnered with five G free, the only company in the world that has a supply of radio
00:56:00.080
guard ACE and the ability to prescribe it prophylactically. Get their radiation emergency
00:56:05.740
kit with radio guard ACE, potassium iodide, Zofran and a Geiger counter. There's simply no other tool
00:56:11.060
in your arsenal to protect against a radioactive threat. So go to five G free.com code studio to
00:56:17.300
save 15% and get your radiation kit now. Okay. Let's go into this hostage deal. Uh, David,
00:56:24.180
I'll let you take the lead here. Well, we're talking about, first of all, Sheila, my heart
00:56:29.000
breaks for these hostages. Let's keep in mind, it's been over 460 days since these hostages have
00:56:36.140
been held in tunnels. Um, catacombs really, if you ask me, we don't know the condition of their
00:56:42.980
health. We don't know how much torture, how much raping has occurred. We, uh, how many, uh,
00:56:49.800
elements have gone untreated. Um, I, it's horrific when you even think about it, but equally so Sheila,
00:56:58.880
if there's any kind of deal where you're having mass murderers, not just, you know, shoplifters,
00:57:07.840
but we're talking about mass murderers, terrorists, um, released from Israeli prisons. Um, this is
00:57:15.360
throwing, uh, gasoline on the fire, but you know, at the end of the day, you have to wonder,
00:57:20.320
you know, that 400 number, like I said, it's about 460 plus days for the hostages. I'm having a
00:57:27.560
flashback to 1981 when the U S hostages in Tehran, Iran, uh, were finally released 444 days after being
00:57:39.820
detained. And what was happening in January of that? Oh yeah, that's right. Ronald Reagan, uh,
00:57:46.040
was taking, uh, power. So I guess as you know, of course, everybody wants these people who are being
00:57:54.940
tortured and victimized beyond comprehension to be released, but let's keep an eye on who is going
00:58:03.900
to be let out of Israeli prison, Sheila. Right. So it sounds like the deal is only for 33 of 98
00:58:13.080
remaining hostages and 10 of those 33 are dead bodies. So they are only bringing home at 23 alive.
00:58:22.760
I mean, it's just a small, I mean, if you are one of those families, this is absolutely a victory for
00:58:28.240
you. Um, and I don't begrudge them that, and I don't begrudge those bodies coming home. It is,
00:58:34.320
it, that is essential to the families of the dead hostages, but this leaves a lot of, of, uh,
00:58:42.920
civilians still there. Um, and this features a six week ceasefire. Now my problem with the six week
00:58:51.480
ceasefire is that it allows, uh, Hamas to recoup and, uh, resupply itself. And here's another problem
00:59:01.840
with, um, the offset of this. So, uh, there will be terrorists released from Israeli prisons in
00:59:11.420
exchange for these 23 remaining alive hostages. And that is, and that, sorry, just before I go on,
00:59:20.560
13 years ago, Hamas chief, the architect of the terror attack on October 7th, uh, Yaya Sinwar was
00:59:28.960
released by Israel in one of these swap deals. These guys leave prison, come home heroes, and then
00:59:37.080
continue to do what they're doing with an extra zeal. And that's my problem is that we are just
00:59:44.020
going to see more of this. Two points I want to make, uh, Sheila, whenever we hear from the pro Hamas
00:59:50.380
types about the disproportionate use of force by the IDF, uh, because, um, we had, you know,
00:59:59.320
almost 1200 people die on October 7th, uh, 2023. Uh, whereas, uh, far more have died in Gaza with the
01:00:10.780
response. And I always go to this, Sheila, uh, you're the ones who are fine with a disproportionate
01:00:18.200
value on human life. I speak of Galad Shalat, the Israeli soldier who was captured, finally released,
01:00:25.320
and it was Galad Shalat. The trade was for 1027 Palestinian hardcore criminals. So if that's the
01:00:36.300
Sinwar, including Sinwar, Sinwar was released in that deal. That's the math I'm working on. It's
01:00:41.860
not one-to-one, it's one-two every 1027. So I guess if, uh, the Israelis killed, um, 1028, well,
01:00:52.060
yeah, then maybe you can make an argument for disproportionality. But the big picture that is
01:00:58.240
Sheila, it all comes down to Iran. Iran is the one funding Hamas, the Houthis, Hezbollah. They have
01:01:07.420
poured billions of dollars into a fool's errand. They are all losing this, all of them. And Iran
01:01:14.840
itself, I'm going to make a prediction here. I think in the next four years, there is a serious
01:01:21.340
chance of finally Iran, you know, the moolahs there, uh, being displaced. I think this is a regime
01:01:29.920
teetering on the brink right now. Uh, and with Trump coming in with the sanctions going back on,
01:01:37.080
they know that they're scared shitless and all they, and it's not going to be a big deal to get
01:01:43.180
them removed. It's more of a nudge than an armed conflict. And remember, like I said,
01:01:49.540
Iran is the ringleader behind all these terror groups. Why don't we go for the head of the snake?
01:01:57.420
Well, and I think we're going to find out more details about this, uh, prisoner swap,
01:02:03.040
although I won't call it a prisoner swap. Some of them are rightful prisoners and the rest are hostages,
01:02:07.360
um, about who's involved in the swap. I think the devil is really in the details. Um, and that'll
01:02:14.440
come out in the next hours and days. David, I hate to say it, but it is, uh, 1201 Alberta time,
01:02:21.940
which makes me one minute late for my next, uh, interview. So I've got to wrap, uh, David close
01:02:29.760
this up. Well, thank you so much, Sheila. And thank you for that precious one extra minute of your time.
01:02:35.140
Okay. Well, folks, a tip of the hat to all of you on national hat day, Sheila and I will be back here
01:02:41.240
on Friday to do it all over again. Until then, as always stay safe and stay sane.
01:02:49.040
Uh, we need to be able to deal with most, both, uh, when, when, and if they occur, I think both sides
01:02:55.260
of the border have to work diligently to make sure that they do not occur. Our southbound flow that we've
01:03:01.600
cut to historic lows in December is a significant gain. Um, they need to make sure that any, um,
01:03:09.460
any migration that may occur in an unplanned way to Canada.
