Summary
Justin Trudeau says he needs 10,000 more troops on the border, but where exactly are they coming from? And why are they not coming from the military? Is this a con job by the Prime Minister, or is there a real plan in place?

00:00:00.560
And President Trump said in the executive order that it's about the border and fentanyl.
00:00:13.600
Uh-huh. Can we take these people seriously, folks? Is Trudeau conning President Donald Trump again
00:00:22.640
on the border? We're going to be examining exactly what's been said and not said about
00:00:28.480
border security. When we come back, welcome back to Stand on Guard. I'm your host, David Creighton.
00:00:58.480
Yes, please like the station. Do it now if you can. I really appreciate it because it beats the
00:01:09.600
YouTube algorithm, which is generally working, working against me. And it's just great stuff.
00:01:16.880
It helps small stations like this that are trying to be a little larger.
00:01:22.400
Now, what I'll talk about today, a couple of things. We're going to talk about the fentanyl,
00:01:26.080
or I don't know if we're even supposed to say that word on YouTube. We'll call it the big F.
00:01:32.240
Hopefully we won't be confused with another big F. But this story struck me yesterday.
00:01:38.560
military not being deployed to U.S.-Canada border. We'll send drones. Now, a spokesman for
00:01:50.240
Minister of National Defense, Bill Blair, came out with this statement yesterday.
00:01:55.840
And I thought, well, if they're not coming from the military, where are they coming from?
00:02:01.600
And this is very unnerving. Is Trudeau lying? Is Bill Blair out of step? Did he not get the
00:02:11.120
talking points? Did he not get the memo? Or is Trudeau doing his usual con man job?
00:02:18.000
He talked about 10,000. Yes, remember? 10,000 frontline personnel. Now, I know that didn't
00:02:28.320
necessarily mean soldiers. He didn't want to say soldiers, military troops, Canadian Armed Forces
00:02:34.640
personnel. He wouldn't even want to say Navy or Air Force personnel. He didn't want any suggestion
00:02:43.520
that he was sending military people to the border. That's something Donald Trump does,
00:02:49.200
not Justin Trudeau. So he got away with this description of frontline personnel. And I said
00:02:56.800
immediately, well, what is a frontline? Who are frontline personnel? It sounds like first responders,
00:03:04.560
sounds like they are a CMP or maybe provincial police, although we only have two provinces that
00:03:11.280
have provincial police, could be Canadian border security agents. But the problem is we don't
00:03:20.400
have 10,000 of those people to just send down to the border. We do have 10,000 available military
00:03:30.080
personnel. In fact, if we cleaned out NDHQ for a couple of weeks, we could easily come up with 10,000
00:03:36.960
people sitting at their desks. But it would be difficult, but not impossible to find 10,000
00:03:45.040
people in uniform to send to the border. But apparently that's not the plan. They want drones,
00:03:50.160
which they've already screwed up on the drones. Remember, they bought Chinese drones that were
00:03:59.360
So, you know, they've gone after helicopters, but now we're back to drones. There is a disconnect here
00:04:09.280
someplace. And I'm sorry, nobody's asking the question. And this is the problem when the House
00:04:16.160
of Commons is not in session, when it's prorogued, because we don't have a daily question period. I
00:04:22.080
know question period is useless at times. I know the questions are never really answered, but they are to
00:04:28.000
some degree. You can at least get the government on record about certain issues. So I would imagine
00:04:37.040
official opposition leader Pierre Pauly would be rising in the House today if parliament was in
00:04:43.600
session and saying, who are the 10,000 frontline personnel that the prime minister intends to send
00:04:51.600
to the border? Who are they? You have not been very specific about where they're coming from.
00:04:56.560
You know, and there's a possibility. It might not be 10,000 at all. It could be 1,500 because Trudeau
00:05:06.240
could say, well, there's already 8,500 serving members in the CBSA. All we need to do is tack on
00:05:13.840
1,500 more from someplace, and we've got our 10,000. That's not good enough.
00:05:18.960
As I said, and Trudeau keeps pretending this plan was already in place. Remember this? He keeps saying, oh,
00:05:39.760
and fair governance section of the fall economic statement of the economic update.
00:05:48.720
And as I keep repeating, this is a six-year plan with virtually no money being spent in the first
00:05:54.640
year. So for Trudeau to suggest it was always the plan to have 10,000 boots on the ground. No,
00:06:01.920
it wasn't. It's not in this plan. This plan is inadequate. He was forced to give more. But I'm
00:06:09.360
wondering, is he conning the president at this point? Because he doesn't have 10,000 and he has no
00:06:17.360
intention. If Trudeau does not deliver on what he promised Trump a couple of days ago,
00:06:24.640
we will have a tariff in less than a month of 25%. And this will all be for naught. All of this
00:06:32.720
will be for naught. Now let's listen to Daniel Smith because she has, I was criticized today for
00:06:38.800
not giving enough credit to Daniel Smith for solving the border crisis. Well, I don't think it's been
00:06:43.200
solved necessarily, but Daniel Smith was the one who did most of the legwork, much more than Justin
00:06:49.120
Trudeau ever did, or Melanie Joly. Melanie Joly actually met with Democrats when she was then,
00:06:54.960
and we'll get to that later. But she spent more time meeting with Democratic leadership in Congress,
00:07:03.600
including failed vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine, who ran with Hillary Clinton in 2016,
00:07:10.320
than she did talking to the powers that be, the people who make the decisions in Washington,
00:07:16.720
which are now Republican senators, Republican congressmen, and of course, the president
00:07:23.760
of the United States and his cabinet, which is just coming into focus right now.
00:07:30.000
But let's listen to Daniel Smith because this is very interesting what she says here.
00:07:39.680
Daniel Smith was standing up to Donald Trump essentially necessary to make some progress.
00:07:55.440
I think we're going to, we're going to, we're going to try that one again,
00:07:58.800
having the fentanyls. The premier has stated calm, logical discussion is far more effective than tough
00:08:04.160
guy rhetoric when dealing with a misguided ally. Do you give the federal government any credit for
00:08:09.600
this, you know, 30-day pause? Was standing up to Donald Trump essentially necessary to make some
00:08:15.840
progress? I think that the arrangement that they came to yesterday, having the fentanyls are in a
00:08:22.080
cross-border collaboration, declaring Mexican cartels, terrorist groups, and committing a number,
00:08:29.040
10,000 people who would be dedicated to this issue. I think that that all satisfied the Americans'
00:08:34.400
concern that we were going to take the fentanyl issue seriously. I think that's what led to a
00:08:39.040
30-day reprieve. Now it's going to be a matter of making sure that we show some progress on that
00:08:43.040
in order to make sure that it doesn't come back. Now, that's the point. She mentions the 10,000
00:08:48.800
number. She believes it's real, but where are they coming from? Justin Trudeau will not say,
00:08:55.360
he will not be specific, and nobody is talking about it. And that essentially extending this
00:09:01.920
pause will be predicated on action at the border. And I ask because in one sense, that's what the
00:09:07.840
executive order says. That's what all the communication yesterday said. But in another
00:09:12.160
sense, just hours before the reprieve was announced, the president is going on and on and on about annexing
00:09:17.440
Canada. I think that there's two conversations we're having with the U.S. administration.
00:09:22.960
One conversation is the tariffs related to fentanyl. And the second conversation is all of
00:09:28.320
the irritations that the administration has with the CUSMA agreement. And I don't think we
00:09:34.000
should intermingle those two. I think we've got to address the fentanyl issue to avoid the 25%
00:09:39.760
tariffs. And then the second stage is having an election so we can have a government who can spend
00:09:45.040
four years renegotiating the CUSMA. I think if we try to intermingle those two,
00:09:50.080
then we're not going to satisfy the concerns around fentanyl. So I'd like to stay focused
00:09:53.920
on fentanyl, make some progress in the next 30 days, and then hope we can move on to the next
00:09:58.320
stage when we've got a new elected government at the federal level.
00:10:01.760
Is it us as Canadians, though, who are intermixing them? Or is it the president himself? Because I
00:10:06.240
would note, for example. Now, she alludes to the fact we need
00:10:10.320
an election. That could happen if the Supreme Court agrees with a court challenge
00:10:20.240
that prorogation was essentially illegal, inappropriate, unconstitutional,
00:10:25.840
and should never have happened, because Trudeau did it for all the wrong reasons. Now,
00:10:31.040
that decision is coming February 13th or 14th. We could be heading back into parliament right after that,
00:10:38.160
which, of course, would allow us to have a non-confidence motion against the Trudeau
00:10:44.720
government earlier than if we come back in March, which is ludicrous. We need
00:10:54.080
parliament to resume, and we need to bring this government down.
00:10:58.400
We need to make progress on fentanyl so that we don't end up seeing the 25%
00:11:27.680
tariffs come back. And we need to make progress on the things that are irritating to the Americans,
00:11:33.440
the digital media tax, the banking industry, telecom, supply management. Those keep coming up,
00:11:40.640
but those can only be resolved in the context of a broader renegotiation of the Canada-US-Mexico
00:11:47.760
free trade agreement. And that's not scheduled to be done until 2026. So we need an election. We can't
00:11:53.920
have one prime minister start those discussions, a second prime minister carry it a few yards,
00:11:58.960
and then a final prime minister negotiate it. We'd be much better off solving the issue around
00:12:04.320
fentanyl so that it doesn't come back with the high punitive tariffs, and then getting an election so
00:12:09.760
that we can get someone at the table to do the brass tacks negotiation for the next four years.
00:12:13.760
There will be an election, though, before those negotiations are supposed to start in earnest.
00:12:19.600
I sure hope so. I mean, as we all know, there is the ability for a new prime minister to try to
00:12:26.400
negotiate a new deal with either the bloc or the NDP to stay in until October. We also know our
00:12:31.680
constitution allows for an election that could be held as late as October 2026.
00:12:37.520
There, somebody said it in government. This is Alberta Premier Daniel Smith acknowledging
00:12:44.800
that this government could try to stay in power for another 18 months. Yes, believe it or not,
00:12:52.960
until October 2026. Is it possible? Of course it's possible. This is why we need to bring this
00:13:00.400
government down at the earliest opportunity, because we can't continue to have essentially this
00:13:07.360
lame duck government in control of our destiny. But I'm glad Daniel Smith pointed that out, because
00:13:13.760
Vassie obviously isn't even aware of this. She thinks this is conspiracy theory time that suggests that
00:13:20.800
the liberals could actually sustain themselves for another 18 months. It's not. It's in the constitution.
00:13:28.560
True, there's legislation saying we should have an election every four years, but what do you think
00:13:33.520
would overrule that legislation if the constitution says we can go five years? Then you bet the liberals
00:13:40.320
would try to go five years if they can. This is why we need to bring this government down at the
00:13:44.480
earliest opportunity. And I'm glad Daniel Smith pointed this out.
00:13:48.800
Be very damaging to the country. I just want to make sure everyone knows my view. Let's get a new leader
00:13:54.400
in place in the liberals and let's get to an election right away. If they win, then we know who is at the
00:13:58.960
table for the next four years. If it's somebody else, then let's get that resolved. You spoke over
00:14:03.200
the weekend and released a statement when the initial executive order was signed, basically
00:14:08.000
intimating that your lobbying efforts in the United States had led to a better outcome for oil and gas
00:14:13.760
because energy got a 10 percent tariff instead of the 25 percent tariff. What do you tell your
00:14:18.480
province's farmers or manufacturers? Were you not advocating for them? I was advocating for everyone.
00:14:24.480
I think we were very successful in making the argument about energy resources. And let's remember
00:14:29.760
that the definition of energy resource is very wide. It's oil, gas, electricity, critical minerals,
00:14:36.080
uranium. So every single province benefited from the recognition that the Americans need that.
00:14:43.200
I think we can make similar arguments on food. I think whether it's cattle or whether it's grains,
00:14:47.360
I think that that goes into an American supply chain that adds value added. And it's the exact same
00:14:52.240
argument. I think the same could be made for auto parts. The fact that auto parts go back and forth
00:14:56.880
across the border six or seven times to create a finished car, that's a very strong argument to
00:15:01.200
maintain those supply chains. So it's up to each premier to make those arguments. But I think the
00:15:05.600
fact that we had a breakthrough on energy resources writ large, I think that shows that there is a pathway
00:15:10.640
for us to demonstrate the supportive value that Canada has and why this relationship is so unique
00:15:15.840
and so strong and should stay that way. So I'm going to show how serious we are and do as much as we can
00:15:22.400
to make sure that our own people are made safe. Just one question before I let you go on sort of the
00:15:27.680
longer term prospects for escaping these tariffs. Based on your communication, based on the way the last 24,
00:15:34.400
48 hours unfolded, what do you think the chance of permanently escaping the application of these tariffs is?
00:15:40.800
Well, I think there's two tariffs. I think the fentanyl tariffs, the 2510 tariffs will come back
00:15:47.120
if we do not make serious efforts to reduce the number of deaths that are happening in the US that
00:15:53.040
we're responsible for with fentanyl. So I think we have to make sure that we take that part of it
00:15:57.120
seriously. And then round two is a renegotiation of the Canada-US-Mexico trade agreement, which hopefully
00:16:03.280
a new government will get underway as soon as we get past this initial crisis. But we have to look at
00:16:09.040
them as two different discussions we're having with the US. And it's probably going to be a hard
00:16:13.920
negotiation, but it'll be a lot better to start that negotiation with a government that has a four
00:16:18.720
year mandate. Exactly. And that's why we need to move on to new elections immediately. Now, how serious
00:16:27.280
has this government taken the big F crisis? Well, let's listen to this again, because it's absolutely
00:16:36.880
fascinating. President Trump said in the executive order that it's about the border and fentanyl.
00:16:49.440
We have one of the strongest, more secure borders in the world between Canada and the United States.
00:16:58.640
As I said, less than one percent of fentanyl going into the United States come from Canada,
00:17:03.520
less than one percent of illegal migrants going into the United States come from Canada.
00:17:08.960
They're including sending joint teams over to China to talk about the precursor chemicals
00:17:15.440
that get developed into fentanyl all across North America.
00:17:21.120
See, he's finally acknowledging the precursor chemicals. Fentanyl is being manufactured at fentanyl labs
00:17:29.200
across Canada, especially in the West Coast and BC. And this is where the supply is coming from.
00:17:38.720
So stop pretending it's just it's no big deal. One percent. No problem. This is incredible,
00:17:46.800
willful blindness from this prime minister and this government.
00:17:49.600
The preoccupation the American president has with fentanyl deaths. We share those preoccupations. We've seen
00:17:56.160
far too many communities across our country devastated.
00:18:05.040
Now, as I as I said, Melanie Jolie rolling her eyes, smiling, laughing about the fentanyl crisis,
00:18:11.840
no big deal. Yeah, this is a woman who takes stands on every side of the issue.
00:18:17.360
And when she's down, as I said, and in the US, she's negotiating with people who have no impact
00:18:26.800
on the tariff question. Tim Kaine, Senator Tim Kaine from Virginia, Democratic senator from Virginia,
00:18:34.960
has absolutely no influence on this issue. So why is Melanie Jolie wasting her time talking to these people?
00:18:43.360
She's obviously more comfortable talking to people like Tim Kaine, but it's not doing Canada any good.
00:18:53.280
And this to me is indicative and emblematic of their surrender. Just absolutely.
00:18:59.360
So you have no idea how many people could possibly be involved in the fentanyl trade in Canada?
00:19:04.240
There's a significant group, a significant number of organized crime group. But if you're asking for a
00:19:09.040
specific number, I can't give you a specific number. How many organized crime groups are involved?
00:19:13.920
Over 4000 organized crime groups in Canada. Did you just hear 4000 organized crime groups in Canada?
00:19:31.120
Justin Trudeau keeps downplaying fentanyl. He keeps downplaying organized crime in Canada.
00:19:46.720
4000 individual organized crime groups, all with their own distinct leadership and membership?
00:19:53.520
24. So we know there's been two meetings about this. This can't be a surprise to anybody within the
00:19:58.160
government. The U.S. ambassador shared this photo on X with his caption, talking about securing the
00:20:05.200
border, fighting the scourge of fentanyl, and combat against the infiltration of criminal organizations.
00:20:10.080
To reiterate, would it be fair to say the Government of Canada and the Minister of Public Safety have been
00:20:15.040
aware of the United States concerns about fentanyl and illegal immigration well in advance of November 2024?
00:20:23.040
I would say that there are Canadian concerns about fentanyl and irregular migration and illegal migration.
00:20:32.640
And there are concerns that are shared with the U.S., but they are not U.S. concerns.
00:20:36.160
They are Canadian concerns and they are the preoccupation.
00:20:39.200
All right. This is a CBSA agent who likes to talk about irregular immigration, meaning illegal.
00:20:48.960
And, yeah, we're sharing those concerns, but not too much.
00:20:56.000
Of the CBSA every day. And so the Minister is well-versed in the activities that we take,
00:21:02.880
interested in our seizures, the trends that we're seeing. So these are absolutely Canadian concerns,
00:21:08.480
and they're Canadian concerns that we're working on every day.
00:21:10.960
And they've been Canadian concerns, obviously, for a while. Not sure how well they've been dealt with.
00:21:15.760
My last question on this issue is, prior to President-elect Trump raising concerns about
00:21:20.720
activity at our shared border, did the Department of Homeland Security or any other department
00:21:25.520
approach the CBSA with concerns about the issues of fentanyl and illegal immigration?
00:21:31.440
We talk about it all the time. And just as by way of example, two times a year, I meet with our
00:21:38.080
Border 5 colleagues that, of course, includes the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, and the U.K.
00:21:43.600
And my U.S. counterpart and I consistently put fentanyl on that agenda. Fortunately for our other
00:21:53.600
homologues, use the French term, it hasn't reached their shores to the extent that it has us. So we
00:22:00.400
put it on the agenda. We discuss it. The Americans aren't pushing Canada. We are sharing information all
00:22:05.840
the time, what we're seeing in terms of trends, precursors, transit, what's coming out of Mexico,
00:22:11.520
what's coming out of China. Thank you. I would definitely say they're pushing us now.
00:22:16.960
Now, we'll get back to this in a minute, but this was from November.
00:22:22.640
Donald Trump had just been elected and they took a few days off from talking about
00:22:27.920
disinformation to talk about this drug crisis. So this has been an issue now for months.
00:22:34.960
And suddenly, are we going to have a fentanyl czar? Is it going to be a joint fentanyl border czar?
00:22:41.120
Or what exactly is the role going to be? Once again, Justin Trudeau has not defined it. He's not
00:22:46.640
described it. In fact, we don't even have any suggestions. I asked you folks the other day who
00:22:52.800
you think should be the fentanyl czar. And I thank you for your responses.
00:22:56.960
The auto theft study from the Ontario Provincial Police that oftentimes when they're catching
00:23:03.280
people in the act of stealing cars or as a result of their investigations, that it's often people
00:23:09.200
that they've already been interacting with, people that they've caught previously. In fact,
00:23:13.120
many of these people were out on bail. Are you finding in your fentanyl investigations when
00:23:17.600
you're cracking down on these labs and you're having these great busts that we like to see
00:23:22.240
and catching people, are these people that are known to law enforcement generally,
00:23:25.360
or are they people that have had no interaction with law enforcement before?
00:23:31.680
Yes, it's fair to say that organized crime individuals are not individuals that have
00:23:37.040
been arrested only once. We deal with the same individuals and groups very often.
00:23:43.040
So you would say that in the majority of cases that the people that you're catching in these
00:23:48.160
things are repeat offenders? That's fair to say, yeah. What can we do to get
00:23:55.520
these people behind bars so that they're not out there pushing these drugs that are killing members
00:24:03.680
I would answer, I think there's multiple avenues here. One is how do we stop the precursors or slow
00:24:09.200
the precursors from coming into the country? I do think that we need a strong outreach program to
00:24:14.880
inform the Canadian public of the harm of fentanyl. And the other one is sharing information that
00:24:22.320
that is ongoing with law enforcement? It's killed, I don't want to correct you because I agree with
00:24:26.400
you, but it has killed more people in Canada than died in the Second World War, than Canadians that
00:24:31.600
died in the Second World War, this fentanyl opioid overdose crisis. So I think many Canadians know that
00:24:36.880
this is a deadly epidemic that has killed people in my family, it's killed people in many families
00:24:43.520
across Canada, it's devastating. And I hope that you will get the resources and get the legal backing
00:24:50.800
to be able to continue doing your work and cracking down on these people because we cannot allow this
00:24:55.520
to continue. As we've seen with this study, it's now costing us our international reputation and so I
00:25:00.800
support you in the work you're doing and I only hope that you get all the tools that you need to get
00:25:05.120
that job done. Thank you. So this has been an object of discussion for quite some time, or a subject of
00:25:13.920
discussion for quite some time. Now I go back to this article. Nobody else even bothered to report this
00:25:23.120
yesterday, that Bill Blair, you remember him, the open borders minister? He was the one responsible for
00:25:31.760
a lot of the illegal immigration at the height of Trudeau's lapsed policy of his porous border.
00:25:41.440
Now Bill Blair just said we're not going to send any troops to that southern border. Now Pierre
00:25:45.920
Paulio needs to get in front of a camera today, needs to get in front of a microphone, and he needs
00:25:54.240
to demand answers from Justin Trudeau, from Bill Blair, from Dominique LeBlanc, the public safety
00:26:01.440
minister, my god maybe even Melanie Jolie, who seems to be completely vacant at times. We need answers
00:26:08.400
on this immediately, because if this is a con job, if this is another fraud from the Trudeau government,
00:26:18.080
we are going to get that tariff slapped right back within the next 28 days. Now that's going to happen,
00:26:26.640
because if this is all about just window dressing, which is what Justin Trudeau does best when it comes
00:26:32.880
to immigration policies, we are in big trouble. I can't overemphasize that, and I don't understand
00:26:40.800
why nobody is asking the question. Now Pierre Paulio the other day recommended 2,500
00:26:50.640
military personnel being sent to the border. It looked like Justin Trudeau was upping him on that by
00:26:59.040
saying, I want to send 10,000. But of course, he didn't use the word military, soldiers, troops, anything,
00:27:09.280
because he doesn't want to be identified with that. Now Pierre Paulio needs to clarify this.
00:27:15.840
He needs to demand that Justin Trudeau articulate a more distinct and a more identifiable policy. What is he
00:27:26.480
actually envisioning? Because if this is once more, more of his political games, Donald Trump is highly volatile
00:27:35.120
right now. You saw what he did yesterday, and now he's talking about taking over Gaza?
00:27:41.520
And turning it into the Riviera of the Middle East? I mean,
00:27:47.120
this is a highly volatile president. And if he thinks Justin Trudeau is trying to put one over on him,
00:27:56.400
as Justin Trudeau likes to think he can do, because he doesn't think Donald Trump's very smart,
00:28:02.560
he doesn't think Donald Trump understands things as well as he does.
00:28:08.000
Donald Trump is going to come back and whack Canada with maybe even more than 25% terror.
00:28:15.280
This is potentially catastrophic. I cannot overemphasize that. And when we, I thought we had a deal
00:28:23.920
the other day that was sustainable. I breathed a sigh of relief. And I said, it looks like a new world.
00:28:32.320
Because this tariff is going to be devastating to people like you and I, because it's going to
00:28:39.520
impact the price of food. Have a look at the items, the products that will be affected by the tariff
00:28:46.240
and these counter tariffs that we in Canada are threatening to slap on American produce.
00:28:52.880
It's food that's largely going to be affected. We've all been to the grocery store and seen prices
00:29:02.400
on the rise every week, even though we're being told inflation is lower than ever.
00:29:07.360
We know the effect of inflation. We do not need the inflationary spending. We do not need a tariff
00:29:17.280
relief bill to pour more billions of dollars of phony cash, magic money into the economy.
00:29:26.480
That will be, once again, highly inflationary, and it's just going to push the price of everything up.
00:29:32.720
And if you think you've got more money in the bank, you'll realize very quickly your money has less
00:29:38.400
buying power almost overnight. But that's where Justin Trudeau wants to go with this.
00:29:45.600
And I still submit the only plan he ever had to win the next election,
00:29:52.800
or the only plan the Liberal Party has to win the next election is to create
00:29:58.000
a crisis with the United States and run against Donald Trump and not run against Pierpolio.
00:30:04.960
Insist to Pierpolio, you heard CBC say this the other day, Pierpolio should just shut up,
00:30:11.680
stop being the opposition, get behind Justin Trudeau, and we should have a one-party state,
00:30:16.880
guaranteeing the Liberals win the next election. Now that is absolute insanity, of course.
00:30:26.400
And also contrary to everything this country is supposed to be about. So let's not even consider that.
00:30:37.680
But Pierpolio needs, again, to get answers from this Prime Minister, because this Prime Minister is not
00:30:44.400
giving any answers. And there's the journalists in this country are taking Trudeau at his word.
00:30:52.160
And that's always a mistake. Because Trudeau cannot be trusted to tell the truth,
00:30:57.760
or to do the right thing. And that's something we always, always have to be aware of.
00:31:04.880
I'm going to stay on this. In fact, I've got a request into the conservative defense critic
00:31:11.840
to see if we can get some answers on this. I know James Bazan from years back.
00:31:16.880
And he's often talked to me. I might even try to get him on the show.
00:31:24.080
Because we need answers right now to what this Liberal government is actually envisioning.
00:31:30.240
Whether it's a real borders are, a real fentanyls are, whether it's really 10,000 frontline personnel.
00:31:41.520
Whether they really are serious about getting serious about organized crime.
00:31:46.480
If it all comes down to just, we're going to declare cartels, terrorist organizations, that's not enough.
00:31:55.440
And I think we can all agree, that's not going to be enough. We need much more from this government.
00:32:03.840
Don't want to go too long today. Thank you so much.
00:32:06.640
I should remind you though, I haven't in a while. Have a look at our store. We've got some great material.
00:32:36.640
Thanks for watching today, folks. I'll be back again tomorrow, 10 a.m., with more of all the news you need to know.
00:32:54.560
And let's continue to resolve to resist and fight back.
