Rebel co-host Lise Murrow joins host Sheila Gunn-Reed to discuss all things Canada and the Trump administration, including the new tariffs on steel and aluminum, and the impact on the Canadian dairy industry.
00:00:00.000Hopefully you're having a good time with this podcast, but I guarantee a better time would be
00:00:05.100coming to Alaska with me, Drea Humphrey, and my other Rebel colleagues. You've got to find out
00:00:12.340more at our special website, rebelnewscruise.com, but it's taking place June 18th to June 25th,
00:00:21.140a vacation trip of a lifetime. Again, that's rebelnewscruise.com. I'll see you there.
00:00:30.000Oh, hey, good morning, good afternoon, everybody, depending on which part of this fractured,
00:00:40.880frigid country that you're in. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed. You're watching the Daily Rebel Roundup. I am
00:00:47.720largely your host, and today I'm joined by the regular Wednesday co-host from beautiful Regina,
00:00:55.560Saskatchewan, my real-life best friend, Lise Murrow. How's it going, Lise?
00:01:00.500Hello, my darling Sheila Gunn-Reed, and welcome, Rebel fam. Nobody is more delighted to be your
00:01:06.580regular hump day co-pilot on this wild adventure that we're on at Rebel News, more than me,
00:01:14.040but, Amanda, we've got a great lineup today. Oh, this country never stops delivering on the
00:01:20.340juicy, newsy goodness, do they, Sheila? Yeah, I think other journalists wake up and they're like,
00:01:26.680oh, I wonder what I'm going to talk about today, and I'm like, how do I get to all this
00:01:30.100big, fat mess of a country that I have to deal with today? Like, can we invent an extra three
00:01:36.500hours in a day and perhaps an extra day called Wednesday-very? Like, I don't, I don't, I need
00:01:44.880another extra day in the middle of the week to talk about all this stuff because it's just non-stop
00:01:49.240nonsense from the federal government and Mark Carney and Doug Ford and then Trump. Yes. It's a lot.
00:02:00.440We got, yeah, keep going, sorry, go on, keep going. No, no, no, I was just going to tell everybody and
00:02:06.220after we get into the swing of things, I'm going to expect you to be able to say these things.
00:02:10.760Um, if people want to get involved in the show and you are still one of those prickly pears still
00:02:18.200watching us over on the censorship platform of YouTube, I understand you and I appreciate you.
00:02:23.280When they tell me I'm, I don't belong somewhere, that's how you get more Sheila. I'm like the Kool-Aid
00:02:28.640man. I'll kick down the wall and just waltz on in and make myself seen and heard. And so I understand
00:02:35.040if there are still you conservatives over there sticking it out on YouTube, but, uh, I should tell
00:02:40.460you, we are completely demonetized on YouTube. Uh, so if you want to support the work that we do,
00:02:45.100but also support a platform that cares about your right to express yourself, take your view and
00:02:51.520eyeballs and perk them over on rumble because on rumble, you are not going to get censored,
00:02:57.840but you're also going to get the uncensored version of rebel news. And as an added bonus,
00:03:04.260you can support the work that we do out of the goodness of your heart, because we will never take
00:03:09.480a penny from Justin Trudeau. Unlike our peers, I think is the right word to use in the mainstream
00:03:15.540media who are constantly being bailed out by their sugar daddy, Justin Trudeau, we could never hold
00:03:21.120him to account if we did. Even if we were not biased in favor of the liberals, the perception
00:03:27.800would be there that we were politically contaminated by having a paymaster in Ottawa named Justin Trudeau
00:03:35.420buying sycophantic coverage. And boy, if you look at the mainstream media these days,
00:03:39.700it sure feels like that's exactly what's happening. So on rumble, you can leave something called a rumble
00:03:45.440rant. That's your pay chat. If it's over the $5 us cutoff, we're obligating ourselves to read it
00:03:50.420and address it on air, but don't let that be the bar for entry. I understand Justin Trudeau is picking
00:03:57.040your pocket harder than ever before. So if we have time and the show is longer than ever these days,
00:04:04.020if we have time, we'll read your chats that fall below the $5 us cutoff again, no obligation though,
00:04:11.060only if we have time. And you know what, even sometimes we read the free chats because they're
00:04:14.400clever and witty too. So there's that. Uh, let's get into tariff mania. Uh, it rolls on. We are in the
00:04:23.720throes of tariff mania right now. The white house says 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum would stack
00:04:33.140on top of other 25% tariffs. I do believe this is what they call compounding tariff.
00:04:41.300Canada. If you think that the team Canada approach of the, of the hard line that we're going to teach
00:04:47.060the, those big bad Americans a lesson, uh, you think that approach worked. This is your proof that it
00:04:54.660absolutely did not. The Americans are laying waste to our industries for the missteps of the people
00:05:02.900who signed on to that terrible and aggressive, uh, an antagonistic approach to, to, uh, Donald Trump's
00:05:10.640administration. And, uh, and yeah, if you want to do, if you want to do something for your home province
00:05:16.700and the industries and the workers in that province, you should encourage your elected officials to take
00:05:22.800a much nicer approach to that administration. And speaking of sycophantic coverage of the liberals
00:05:31.700being bought and paid for by those journalistic subsidies, I would just said of the corner of my
00:05:36.580little eyeball here was reading, uh, this, the, the website copy from CTV. And it says this,
00:05:43.960despite months of diplomacy, excuse me, from all levels of Canada's government, it remains unclear what
00:05:51.920Trump wants from America's Northern border. What? What? Again, once again, what? How many lies are in
00:06:02.900that one little bitty sentence? Despite months of diplomacy from all levels of Canada's government?
00:06:09.400No, not months of diplomacy. Uh, Justin Trudeau didn't even talk to the white house before he
00:06:17.040announced retaliatory tariffs. And then it remains unclear what Trump wants from America's Northern
00:06:23.360border. I'm pretty sure he said exactly what he wants. And one of them was a fentanyl czar,
00:06:28.220which was only appointed late yesterday. And we'll get to him in a little bit.
00:06:32.740Oh, I can't wait. I can't wait to talk about Canada's fentanyl czar. Oh, it's going to be,
00:06:38.900this is going to be a wild ride, Canada. You, we talked yesterday about how Brenda,
00:06:43.740the lucky former commissioner of the RCMP would have been a disaster, but I'm like,
00:06:47.800sit down and buckle up Canada. Trudeau did us even better. I mean, worse than,
00:06:54.920than Brenda. He did us dirty. He did us dirty.
00:06:57.960Oh, did he ever. Yeah. Uh, you know, it's funny to see the, uh, Trudeau government getting slapped
00:07:04.720with compounding tariffs, much like how they slap you with compounding, uh, late fees and interest.
00:07:11.780If you owe these people a penny to the CRA, uh, enjoy your, uh, mob levels of, uh, compounding
00:07:20.560interest from Donald Trump. Compounding carbon tax, carbon tax, carbon tax on the trucks that bring
00:07:29.020it carbon tax on the producers, carbon tax. They're getting a taste of their own medicine. I bet that
00:07:34.580it will be bitter. It will be. Now again, CBC again, here's your bailouts at work. Trudeau,
00:07:43.800they have it written as though Trudeau was trying to explain tariffs to JD Vance,
00:07:50.820who basically used his brain to crawl his way out of generational poverty and the cycle of opioids.
00:08:00.240The empty bucket of Justin Trudeau's head thought he would explain what tariffs are to JD Vance. And
00:08:08.760then CBC is like, yeah, great headline guys. Let's run with it. Uh, Justin Trudeau brought up the impact
00:08:13.760of tariffs in us vice president's home state. Uh, the two leaders met on the sidelines of an
00:08:20.940international summit in Paris Tuesday. By the way, did you see some of the images of JD Vance bringing
00:08:26.220his kids to that summit? Like it is making it perfectly acceptable to have small children in the
00:08:33.080White House again, between JD Vance and Elon Musk with their little ones running all over the White
00:08:38.920House. It is the cutest. And Donald Trump having strong grandpa vibes. Yes. Just totally tolerant of all
00:08:46.820of these little humans just, just being there, just their little presence is being there. I love that in
00:08:51.060the press conference yesterday with Elon and Donald Trump in the Oval Office, little X was there like,
00:08:57.000and you can hear him, you can hear him in the audio, kind of like just being a three-year-old.
00:09:02.420It's just, it's just wonderful to see. It's just wonderful. Oh, look at these guys.
00:09:06.920So these are the little Vance kids and they are clearly exhausted like normal little kids are.
00:09:12.340And they've got their little pea coats on because they are the vice president's kids,
00:09:15.800but you'll notice those are jammies. Those are jammie pants. Everybody was in their jammies on the
00:09:21.400international flight. That's right. Yeah. Like it's so nice to see this young, energetic vice
00:09:28.560president who doesn't dislike children, which I feel like Kamala Harris had a visceral dislike of
00:09:35.060children, just packing a little one on his hip off to Paris. I like it. I like seeing it.
00:09:40.740Me too. Me too. But yeah, this is what Trudeau told.
00:09:48.620This is what he told reporters. He said to J.D. Vance thinking that he could make a light bulb go
00:09:54.400off in J.D. Vance's brain. It was just a quick greeting exchange. Trudeau said, I highlighted that
00:10:01.6602.2 billion worth of steel and aluminum exports from Canada go directly into the Ohio economy.
00:10:08.540Often to go into manufacturing there. He nodded and noted it, but it was no longer exchanged than
00:10:18.320that. J.D. Yeah, I mean that I believe. J.D. Vance would have been like, okay, bud. Okay,
00:10:26.780bud. We're going to replace that in a hot second. Thanks for pointing out. You know, here's the thing.
00:10:34.060In J.D. Vance's head, he's literally logging how much steel and aluminum America has to replace
00:10:40.680from Canada, like right in that moment. Like Trudeau just gave him the amount that America
00:10:47.100has to make up for. So way to go. Five-star negotiator, Trudeau. Five stars.
00:10:53.760And you know, like it's Trudeau. So he was probably like, hello, Mr. Sorry, Vice President,
00:10:59.260Vice President Vance with the crib notes on his hand. Did you know that 2.2 billion dollars
00:11:06.880worth of Canadian steel, aluminum, goes to, oh, Ohio. Ohio.
00:11:21.520That's about it. I mean, the guy doesn't have a, the guy doesn't have a shred of, uh, a shred of
00:11:31.720dignity left. And, uh, and I mean that, that he, that he literally admits to J.D. Vance just
00:11:37.840nodding and sort of blowing him off as the icing on the cake. He nodded and that was that he was
00:11:43.720where I'm like, okay, champ. Good job. Yeah. Get it in your system. Good pitch. Yeah. Oh Lord. Yeah.
00:11:52.400Oh, I wish I was there. Cause it was probably like just that needy nerdy loser kid who is rightfully
00:12:00.060shunned by everybody, not through any fault. Like, you know, there are kids out there who are just
00:12:05.700through no faults of their own, but like he did this to himself and they're like, God, here comes
00:12:10.180Justin again. Cause it seems like all of his like interactions at the international level are just
00:12:16.580him getting denied handshakes by other leaders being rebuffed by the international community.
00:12:24.600I actually read a report that said that he, that everybody is literally just disgusted with him and
00:12:31.220wondering why he's there. Like everybody just works to avoid him at these events. Like, you know,
00:12:38.040whispering, whispering right beside him, he resigned. Like, why is he here? Like he said, he was done.
00:12:44.940What, what, what is the point of him being here right now? And that's a valid argument. If you've
00:12:50.000resigned your position as prime minister of Canada, you should not be traveling still to international
00:12:56.080events representing Canada, because you've already told us that you're done. You're already taught.
00:13:02.500What gives you the right to negotiate on our behalf or to further advance the causes of your government
00:13:08.680that is for all intents and purposes on the way out. Yeah. You know, he reminds me of, you know,
00:13:15.240on everybody's got the one person or two people on their Facebook page that you haven't really spoken
00:13:20.880to since high school and perhaps beyond, but you sort of just lurk at them to see what, where their life
00:13:26.900has become, uh, with, uh, sort of like rubbernecking the way you would look at a car crash. And then
00:13:33.480that person finds their way into an MLM and then won't shut up about their MLM. And then you sort of
00:13:40.560like ignore every time they get on their Facebook, they sort of ignore, you ignore them. They spam you
00:13:46.300with their junk and you ignore them. That's Justin Trudeau in real life with these leaders where he's
00:13:54.160just like spamming them with his bad business ideas that everybody knows they're not reflected in
00:14:02.240reality, but they're like, fine, fine. Sure. Justin, sure. I'll come to your epic, your party.
00:14:10.700You know, good for him. Good for him for trying. Good for him for trying. What, what does drive me
00:14:17.700crazy though, is the insane amount of carbon that this guy burns through, uh, flying all over the
00:14:23.960world. Like he's done what a hundred international trips in this last year. It's gotta be a hundred
00:14:28.920international trips in this last year. Well, his party tells us not to road trip with our families
00:14:33.960in the summer Canada. Oh, here it is. 18,000 liters from our friends at Western Standard, 18,000 liters
00:14:40.380of jet fuel on his European farewell tour. And he cautions us against climate change. The cost to
00:14:48.460operate his plane is around $17,000 an hour. And that, then we tack on the luxury food items to that.
00:14:57.560And, and the booze and the luxury accommodations and the luxury ground transport while he's there.
00:15:04.020These, this is another, this is just adding up to be another, you know, quarter million dollar week.
00:15:10.380In Justin Trudeau's life, but I mean, I would be, I would be shocked if it's that low. You think
00:15:16.580like half mil, half mil week? Yeah. I think we're like around 350,000. I think by the time we're done
00:15:24.000Paris ain't cheap. Well, we're deciding whether to buy no name cheese or regular cheese Canada
00:15:30.980in smaller blocks. This is what this guy is spending our tax dollars on. We should be outraged.
00:15:36.700We should, we are outraged. We are. We are. In the meantime, people are like, look at how patriotic
00:15:43.020I am. I didn't buy American orange juice.
00:15:50.420Slow clap. I'm going to, I'm going to buy whatever is, whatever fits within my budget. Thanks so much.
00:15:57.680Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Whatever's on sale. Thank you. Exactly. And now, and especially since the liberals
00:16:04.020and the NDP won't shut up about, uh, Galen Weston and Loblaw, uh, of all people that I feel sympathetic
00:16:12.440for it's Loblaw, like super store these days. Um, just because Jagmeet Singh, uh, hates him because
00:16:22.320his brother's a lobbyist for Metro. That's a, that's a real good reason to go after a competitor.
00:16:28.520Isn't it Jagmeet? Like it just, it just reeks of nepotism. It just reeks of nepotism. He doesn't
00:16:34.300have anything against superstore. As a matter of fact, superstore and, you know, no frills and
00:16:39.180their, their, uh, subsidiary companies are some of the most affordable places to buy groceries in
00:16:46.940Canada. And yet, uh, and yet Jagmeet Singh would, would scream that you should get your tofu
00:16:51.540and your avocados at the most expensive place. Well, this is, this is, this is a rich story coming
00:16:57.240from a guy that doesn't have to worry about pinching pennies because of the economy that he
00:17:00.740created. Yeah. Uh, it just, I want to, I know we're sort of off on a tangent, but I want to put a pin
00:17:07.320on that because, uh, the, uh, NDP won't shut up about grocery profits and look, don't bother reminding
00:17:14.440me that Loblaw, the Weston family colluded to keep the price of bread artificially down. Yes.
00:17:21.080Disgusting making, uh, bread more expensive for poor people, uh, a pantry staple for poor people,
00:17:27.360more expensive. Uh, but getting beyond that, Loblaw group of companies did experience at least some
00:17:37.600success over the last little bit as groceries were going up and up and up, but here's where they
00:17:43.580experienced their growth. It was on the store brands on the yellow label on the no name brand
00:17:51.940because they were offering a cheaper alternative to the higher value items. And people were turning
00:17:58.660to the grocery store brand to make ends meet because they were able to offer something cheaper.
00:18:06.100Um, so while the NDP are like, they're making record profits, they're making record profits
00:18:12.780because people are turning to them in droves because of the like low margins that they're able
00:18:19.020to sell these, uh, items for in their yellow, their yellow label brand. Yeah, that's exactly right.
00:18:25.840When, when there is a budget crunch on a family level, typically you'll see that first you'll see
00:18:31.840going from, you know, your, your high end brands to your medium price brands, to your low price brands
00:18:40.500before people will start cutting down on volume. But this is what we'll see. This is what we'll see
00:18:45.860next. And I think that this is reflected in, in, uh, current statistics in Canada is people have
00:18:51.300already gone over the last two years from their, their name brand grocery items to the yellow brand
00:18:58.240grocery items. And now they are cutting back on volume and parents are going hungry, uh, because
00:19:03.260they, uh, they, they, they need to keep feeding their kids. This is just the way of, this is just
00:19:09.280the way of economics. I wonder how come Mark Carney isn't chiming in about this. If he's such a gifted
00:19:14.980economist, how come he's not chiming in about this? Can I tell you, I just, uh, by the way, if you
00:19:20.760viewers at home, if you are a subscriber to rebel news plus today's show is a doozy. I just filmed it
00:19:26.640with Chris Sims of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. And she is doing the Lord's work of reading
00:19:33.580Mark Carney's manifesto. It's called values. And it's like that thick and she's going through it.
00:19:40.800And we were talking about how Mark Carney has not just been the author and biggest pusher of carbon
00:19:47.720taxes, both here and around the world. He works to D bank, uh, energy projects that do not
00:19:56.600fall within sustainable development goals. He imposes DEI on companies through the financial
00:20:04.040sector, um, through G fans. That's the Glasgow financial Alliance on net zero or something like
00:20:10.160that. And then through his, uh, company or his asset management firm, he's been investigated
00:20:16.440by, uh, the U S I believe it's a house. Jim Jordan interrogated him, um, for, uh, I shoot,
00:20:27.000I forget what it is, but it's basically collusion. And, uh, so he is collusion colluding as an asset
00:20:35.380manager with banks and other companies to drive up the costs of affordable energy for Americans,
00:20:41.840which is illegal in the United States because they protect the free market. But Mark Carney wants
00:20:47.700to bring in carbon tariffs. You see, if he cannot bend other countries to his will through G fans and
00:20:55.920the United nations and the W E F what he's been up to is pushing for the idea of carbon tariffing
00:21:03.100goods from countries that don't have a carbon tax on the way in the door. And you know what that's
00:21:08.580going to do to Canadians is going to make certain foods completely unaffordable for them. We've
00:21:14.360already heard that people in the high North are experiencing rates of scurvy. We haven't seen since,
00:21:20.420oh, I don't know the pirate years and, uh, scurvy. And so now, uh, he plans to make oranges coming into
00:21:31.000the country, more expensive avocados coming into the country, more expensive pineapples, like citrus
00:21:36.600fruits and things that we import are going to Mark Carney's plan is to make those things more
00:21:41.700expensive because they come from places without carbon taxes. So we'll carbon tariff them on the
00:21:47.580way in the door and Mark Carney can afford a $10 avocado, but, uh, the poor person who wants to treat
00:21:55.140themselves to an avocado a month, uh, they'll be making different choices. And that's Mark Carney for
00:22:01.300you. Yep. Back to peanut butter for you, poor folks back to peanut butter. Okay. Now that I've
00:22:08.600gone on about that. Um, yes. So anyways, that's, uh, the gun show tonight, uh, seven mountain nine
00:22:13.480Eastern. If you're not yet a subscriber and it's in your budget, it's, uh, eight bucks a month at
00:22:20.340rebel news plus.com. It's only $2 a week. It is so worth it. You guys, it is such an, I mean,
00:22:26.740it is such a wealth of information, rebel news, a rebel news plus subscription is just the best
00:22:31.840eight bucks money can buy instead of giving your dollars. Okay. To Disney, to Disney or to any,
00:22:37.640any other of the major, major sort of subscription brands. I got to say, it's the best eight bucks

00:22:57.620get to know the actual in-depth stories. Like what we talk about here is sort of superficial because we
00:23:03.200have so much to talk about, but on, on the back end of your rebel plus subscription, you get to hear
00:23:07.920a lot more in-depth information. So yeah, you get, you get, uh, my weekly show Ezra's nightly fully

00:23:26.080is back behind there too. So, uh, anyways, eight bucks a month. Yeah. And, uh, thank you for
00:23:33.460channeling your inner Christa Freeland and advising people to cancel their Disney plus. Um, yes. You
00:23:41.080mean you're welcome. You're welcome. Uh, we've got a video from premier Legault saying there's not much
00:23:49.300risk of us tariffs harming Quebec's aluminum or aluminum, depending on what part of the British
00:23:55.080empire you're from, um, suggesting the province could find a balance by selling to Europe and Asia,
00:24:01.100or, you know what, you could just get more money from Alberta. There's that too.
00:24:05.640There's that too. It's really interesting that Quebec can sell their aluminum and steel products
00:24:11.080to Asia and to Europe, but Western Canadians can't sell their oil and natural gas to Asia
00:24:17.460or Europe. How interesting. Ain't that something? Let's hear this clip.
00:24:23.740Explain to me why you are so confident that the Quebec aluminum industry can ship from the United
00:24:29.360States as a customer and ship to Europe. Why are you so confident that I can have it?
00:24:33.440Okay. First, when you look at the world, uh, you look at the needs and the production, they are equal. So you may decide not to ship as much to United States. Somebody will ship, but there's a balance. There's no over capacity, maybe except for a part of China, but China, they don't deliver. They don't export.
00:24:57.480Uh, uh, uh, uh, how do you say that? Premier, primer, aluminum, no, non-transform. All right. They don't do that anymore. So there's not much risk for the aluminum business in Quebec because there's no over capacity. So if United States decide to buy aluminum from Asia or from Europe,
00:25:27.480then we'll send, uh, we'll sell to, uh, Europe and Asia. So there's a balance. So it's not much risk. I think the risk is for Mr. Trump because in United States,
00:25:41.480they use every year, they use every year 5 million tons of aluminum and they only produce seven or 800,000, which is 14% of their needs. We supply 60, we Quebec supply 60% of their needs. So, uh, they are in a bad position for sure. Uh, uh, so that's why I say it doesn't make sense for him.
00:26:09.640Nobody believes that nobody believes that he can produce more aluminum. And I was with the big companies today. Nobody believes that he can, uh, make more aluminum in United States. So he's not in the good position for aluminum. So I guess in talking about aluminum, uh, yesterday or today, uh, uh, uh, he's trying to accomplish something else.
00:26:36.380He would like to have more manufacturing jobs in the United States, but, but for sure it won't be in the aluminum business.
00:26:45.380This podcast is brought to you by Rebel News. That's right. So if you want to support us, why not do it in a win-win fashion by shopping for yourself?

00:27:09.180So what I heard there was that our federal government is greenlighting, uh, resource delivery out of Eastern Canada to international markets over the Atlantic, uh, while, while also killing our ability as Western Canadians to get our product through Eastern Canada. That's what I'm hearing them do.
00:27:30.900Yeah. Well, America, you don't, you, you want to play hardball. Fine. We'll just take all of the aluminum that we typically ship to you and we'll ship it somewhere else.
00:27:40.640Meh. This is what I'm hearing. If they could, if they can be nice. Yeah. If they can green light the sale of aluminum from Quebec to go to Asia and Europe, they can green light this, the, uh, the delivery of Western Canadian oil and gas just as easy. Why aren't they not doing that? Like right now.
00:27:58.700Right. I mean, we listened to Justin Trudeau say there's no business case for LNG for, I don't know how long until the potential buyers of our LNG have gone now hat in hand to president Trump who struck deals with, uh, them to buy our LNG. Uh, we can't get our resources off shore in Western Canada.
00:28:20.200And it is, it is, it is a disgrace someplace that is as mineral and oil and gas rich as Canada. We can't, at least in Western Canada, we can't get anything to export markets. Uh, we could be like Singapore. We could be like Dubai. Um, but could we, could we, we would be one of the richest, could we be one of the richest nations on earth?
00:28:47.920We'd be one of the richest nations nations on earth. If it weren't for the, uh, federal government kneecapping us at every opportunity. Um, Hey guys, just, just real quick. Uh, the countries that produce the most amount of aluminum are China, India, Russia, Canada at number four. But why is Canadian aluminum being shipped to Asia when China, okay, China is the number one producer of aluminum. Why would they do that? Why would they import?
00:29:15.260Why would they import Canadian aluminum when China has so much?
00:29:21.120Right. Makes sense. Uh, I, United Arab Emirates.
00:29:24.140I think Legault is overconfident there.
00:29:26.700Yes. Yeah. I think so too. I think so too. Uh, the United States is all the way down the list at number 12. So Canada is at number four. The United States is at number 12, but make no mistake. Uh, Trump and J.D. Vance and Elon are listening.
00:29:41.100They are listening to all of the Canadian preachers saying, well, if you don't, we'll just send our business elsewhere. Uh, what they'll, what they'll do is ramp up their own production of aluminum because it's not like they don't have it. Uh, but now they're going to find themselves in, uh, in a deficit for aluminum. They're just going to develop it themselves and close any opportunity for Quebec to ever do business with America. Again, like, I just don't know who is advising these people. I just don't know who is advising these people.
00:30:06.700I think the same people who, uh, were behind the nonsense with Canada post and their strike during the Christmas season. And now small businesses are like, you know who we can't count on in trust when we need them? Canada post. And, uh, so I think the same union-y types are currently advising the premiers. Like, just.
00:30:29.480That makes sense. That makes so much sense when you say it like that. Yes.
00:30:34.500It's the same business plan really show these people and you know, what's going to happen. They're just going to take their business elsewhere. No small business. I know is going to trust Canada post when you need them. Um, and we're just showing the Americans, you know, when you need us, uh, we're not going to be here. We're just going to, we're just going to be somewhere else at that time. So, uh, yeah, I, I just can't, I can't believe how.
00:30:58.920How hard Canada is mishandling this, this trade war. And these two, I just can't, I, I simply can't believe it. They should have taken a Daniel Smith approach, diplomacy and hustle. And we would be, we would be ahead by a hundred at this point, but we did not. It's really, she, she did a post on X today showing all of the premiers lined up in a row.
00:31:20.920So it only took six weeks to get all of the premiers down to Washington to do our own lobby, but she showed a picture of herself at the podium and watching the other, other premiers, like, like her picture is excellent.
00:31:33.380She's at the podium, but Oh, okay. So it's the picture. It's the, she looks like the prime minister right there.
00:31:38.120Can we zoom in on some of the other premiers? Because there is some state.
00:31:48.220Yes. It, it must be terrible to get, to get shown up by Alberta's premier. And yet that's exactly,
00:31:54.740that's exactly what you're going to do.
