Summary
Justin Trudeau is a narcissist. He likes to travel around the world, burn up the planet, and spend a lot of money on his trips. And he does it by eating lots and lots of cake. Is it a gluttonous addiction, or is it a narcissism?

Hi, welcome back to Stand on Guard. I am your host, David Creighton. Thanks for joining me
00:00:07.320
at this odd hour. It's Friday afternoon, but we've got a few things I think we should discuss
00:00:13.560
before the weekend. So we are in a very precarious position in this country. We need political
00:00:22.000
change, but we also need to resolve to resist. Yes, please like the station. You've come through
00:00:42.000
in a big way in the last couple of days. We've got the subscription up just about hitting 26,000
00:00:48.080
on our way to 30. I want to get the 50,000 by the end of the summer. I hope we can get
00:00:54.600
there. With your help, we can. Thanks so much for your support. And of course, we had no
00:01:01.740
question period today. We had no question period yesterday. The MPs are all gone. They've gone
00:01:07.640
home for the summer for three months. I look at my calendar. They're not going to be back
00:01:14.760
until about mid to late September. And so that will put us about a year and a bit before
00:01:24.340
the next election, if we have another election. I wanted to talk again about this food bill.
00:01:32.960
I asked the question in the description, is it true to a glutton for food or a glutton for
00:01:38.920
punishment? I mean, every time this guy leaves the country, there's a horrendous embarrassment
00:01:45.580
just waiting to happen. The first trip to India, he goes around in traditional Indian garb,
00:01:54.000
preening for the cameras with a poor family in tow, looking very uncomfortable. He tries some local
00:02:02.220
dances. And it just opens his mouth at the wrong time. The second trip to India is even worse.
00:02:12.280
The Indian prime minister Modi goes out of his way to ignore him. He's embarrassment, thinks he's a
00:02:18.080
clown. And then, of course, his airplane gets stuck on the runway because it's being investigated for
00:02:27.060
potentially carrying cocaine. Now, somehow he squeezed through that. Obviously, if there was
00:02:35.040
cocaine on board the aircraft, I guess the Indian government decided they didn't want that
00:02:40.740
embarrassment. They didn't need that to overhang the G-20 summit, which Trudeau was in town to attend.
00:02:49.420
So I think they probably just let it pass. Lucky for Trudeau, if he was carrying cocaine on the plane.
00:02:59.580
Of course, we'll never know the whole story, but we can guess, can't we? Yes, we can guess. But Trudeau
00:03:05.500
seems to have an affinity for air travel. And of course, this is the guy who's always telling us we
00:03:11.200
can't even drive our cars because it's creating greenhouse gas emissions, which is creating climate
00:03:17.380
change. And this is an existential threat to Canada and the world. And as I've said a dozen or more
00:03:24.060
times on this broadcast, even if Canada stopped driving cars and heating homes and air conditioning
00:03:31.180
homes during the summer, we would not make a dent in the global greenhouse gas emissions in the so-called
00:03:39.600
global footprint, carbon footprint, because Canada produces less than 1.5 percent of these greenhouse
00:03:46.860
emissions. So it's not a factor. We are not a factor. Even if you believe that all of this so-called
00:03:56.660
climate change is completely anthropocentric, man-made, then Canada shutting down entirely isn't going to
00:04:05.900
affect the equation at all. But here's Trudeau jet-setting around the world all of the time, burning up
00:04:14.140
the carbon that he likes to call pollution, having a wonderful time, vacationing, and
00:04:23.840
always spending the time at the most expensive hotels, the most expensive resorts.
00:04:30.520
And of course, he expects us to subsist on nothing. Canadians are living on food bank, charity.
00:04:43.520
There's a preponderance now of soup kitchens, which we haven't seen since the Great Depression.
00:04:49.960
And all of this is happening under Trudeau's watch. And of course, the big story, I think, of the week.
00:04:56.580
It was picked up by the Toronto Sun, which did an editorial on it. I wrote a story about this for
00:05:08.700
the post-millennial. Polly of Slams Trudeau was spending over $220,000 on food alone during a six-day
00:05:15.020
trip to Asia. It was actually $223,000. $223,000. And it was things like brisket. But the thing that
00:05:24.760
really got my goat and that attracted my attention was the fact that there was cheesecake, Trudeau's
00:05:34.260
cheesecake. And it brought to mind the arrogance and the impudence and the dismissal that was
00:05:43.000
attributed to Marie Antoinette during the end of the Enchant Regime in France, just prior to the French
00:05:51.500
Revolution. I don't know if Marie Antoinette was actually as narcissistic as Justin Trudeau.
00:05:59.840
That's a tall order to fulfill. But certainly, the attitude attributed to the monarchy in France
00:06:08.060
at that time was one of, let them eat cake. Whether she said it or not is unimportant. The French people
00:06:13.860
believed she did say it. And this attitude of egoism, extreme egotism, and extreme narcissism
00:06:23.860
is exhibited by Justin Trudeau. And this story is emblematic of a prime minister who simply doesn't
00:06:32.940
care. He doesn't care. He really thinks this is acceptable. And of course, he didn't say,
00:06:41.960
oh, I really apologize to taxpayers for burning up $223,000 in plain food. Instead, he tried to
00:06:54.660
project the issue onto Pierre Paulio and saying, oh, it's a cheap political trick. And of course,
00:07:01.880
Paulio came back and saying, there's nothing cheap about this. Let's watch the exchange in question
00:07:07.180
period from Tuesday. Rich coming from him as he raises taxes on single moms for the crime of driving
00:07:16.540
to the grocery store while he treats himself to a jet setting experience where the food on the plane
00:07:25.820
out of a six-day trip was $220,000. Beef brisket, parsley potatoes with truffle oil, beef tenderloin with
00:07:34.680
port wine sauce, braised lamb shanks, and even cheese case cake with pistachio brittle. Mr. Speaker with
00:07:42.680
Canadians lined up at the food bank. What's on the menu for this prime minister this summer?
00:07:55.360
Not the image cake. That's exactly what it was about.
00:08:04.360
Mr. Speaker, the conservatives continue to use cheap attacks and slogans when they stand
00:08:10.360
The right honourable prime minister from the top, please.
00:08:14.360
Speaker, the right honourable prime minister from the top, please.
00:08:19.360
Speaker, the conservative leader continues to use cheap attacks and slogans while he tries
00:08:30.360
tries to hide from the fact that he is standing with the wealthiest Canadians and against the idea
00:08:35.360
of them paying a little more so that Canadians, young Canadians can buy a home, so that seniors
00:08:41.360
can get their teeth fixed, so that young families can find a place in childcare.
00:08:46.360
These are the investments we're making that they are standing against, Mr. Speaker.
00:08:51.360
We will continue to deliver for Canadians who need them while he chooses to protect the interests
00:09:08.360
But you get this cheap political tricks and to suggest for a minute that this is no big
00:09:23.360
His dental plan that seniors can't use, his free lunch program and his affordable housing
00:09:38.360
And he thinks this is going to solve the poverty problem.
00:09:41.360
One in four Canadians, 25% of Canadians are now living in poverty.
00:09:53.360
Now, so you're telling me a free lunch for kids in school, a dental plan for people who can't
00:10:03.360
And affordable housing that has yet to even come to fruition is going to somehow staunch
00:10:13.360
It's going to ameliorate the poverty pocket that is Canada.
00:10:26.360
Mr. Speaker, there's nothing cheap about the $220,000 that he spent on one trip for food
00:10:36.360
The honorable leader of the opposition asked this question.
00:10:40.360
We'll ask all members to please keep their voices down.
00:10:44.360
The honorable leader of the opposition from the top.
00:10:47.360
There's nothing cheap, Mr. Speaker, about the prime minister spending $220,000 for food alone
00:11:02.360
Toronto has 256 homeless encampments where one in 10 people in that city are now eating
00:11:11.360
The good news is life was not like this before this prime minister, and it won't be like this
00:11:17.360
Can we not have a carbon tax election now to choose a government that will axe the tax, build
00:11:31.360
And that was actually Polyev's final statement in question period for this spring session,
00:11:41.360
And, of course, they were told soon after that that the question period would not be resuming
00:12:02.360
What disturbs me is what wasn't said in question period this week.
00:12:06.360
Not a single question from the official opposition about the spy scandal.
00:12:11.360
And I'm not going to stop asking questions about this spy scandal because I think it's incredible
00:12:22.360
that the Bloc Québécois advised the government to just let the Hogue inquiry into foreign interference
00:12:36.360
The Bloc Québécois, a separatist party that has no business providing advice to the federal government
00:13:01.360
The Independent Republic of Quebec might not exist right now, but that's what the Bloc is
00:13:09.360
So they should not be dispensing advice as to what we should be doing about foreign interference
00:13:17.360
I hate to put it that bluntly, but that's exactly what they are.
00:13:25.360
Well, obviously, they don't want anything to come out about these spies.
00:13:32.360
They certainly don't want us to know their names.
00:13:35.360
And they want the story to die during the summer.
00:13:40.360
Because everybody kept their mouth shut about it.
00:13:43.360
Everybody kept their mouth, including the official opposition conservatives, who agreed that
00:13:49.360
the Hogue inquiry should be entrusted with this report.
00:13:55.360
And they should decide, Justice Hogue should decide what to do about these names.
00:14:06.360
And it worries me that the conservatives dropped this issue this week in question period.
00:14:15.360
Do the conservatives also want this report to die and this clamor for the names to cease?
00:14:26.360
Because there are a number of good MPs in the conservative party who are fighting hard on this file.
00:14:33.360
Michael Cooper comes to mind, who I've interviewed several times on this station and wanted to again this week.
00:14:43.360
But there are a lot of conservative MPs who are fighting hard on this foreign influence and interference file.
00:14:50.360
So I don't know why the conservative party wanted this issue buried this week.
00:14:57.360
But I'm concerned that there's an assumption that this issue is going to die over the summer months.
00:15:04.360
Because, unfortunately, in Canada, we are far too geared to question period generating the news.
00:15:12.360
We rely far too much on question period to dictate what the news stories of the day are.
00:15:19.360
And when there's no question period, journalists are forced to find the news by themselves and not to sit watching question period.
00:15:28.360
And believe me, most of them, because I've been doing a lot of question period, obviously, from my office.
00:15:36.360
And I haven't been downtown Ottawa doing it from the House.
00:15:41.360
But for many years, I sat in the press gallery as a member of the Parliamentary Press Gallery covering it from there.
00:15:49.360
Nobody even goes up to the press gallery anymore to watch question period.
00:15:54.360
They sit in the basement where the media room is, and they watch it on television.
00:16:00.360
They don't even go up to watch it in person anymore.
00:16:06.360
But I'm not hearing or seeing a great deal of demand from the mainstream media that these names of these spies, yes, they're spies, be named.
00:16:22.360
Almost like it's just too embarrassing to cover.
00:16:27.360
And that is exactly what Justin Trudeau is doing with this story.
00:16:31.360
And it is abominable that he's getting away with it.
00:16:39.360
So we need to continue to demand answers throughout the summer months.
00:16:46.360
I will be continuing to interview MPs like Michael Cooper and other people who want answers.
00:16:53.360
If he hasn't been gagged by the conservative party communications team, which isn't a habit of doing that to MPs.
00:17:02.360
I had three MPs shut down on me in the last three weeks.
00:17:09.360
Don't talk to any conservative, small C conservative media.
00:17:16.360
I can tell you who they are, but there's really no point.
00:17:22.360
And these are usually MPs who are quite talkative to the media, but they were told not to talk to me.
00:17:30.360
I know that because the communication ceased once the conservative party communications people intervened and talked to me and said, we'll look at this for you.
00:17:47.360
And unfortunately, when the conservatives smell power, when they think they're close to power, they have a habit of hiding their members of parliament and of gagging their members of parliament.
00:18:01.360
We don't want to do that this time around because Canadians see right through it and the media sees right through it, including independent and new media that generally give them a break.
00:18:17.360
I'm not carrying water for conservatives if they are refusing to talk to the media.
00:18:26.360
I'm not carrying water for any political party.
00:18:32.360
I report the news as I see it, objectively, fairly, coherently, and comprehensively.
00:18:41.360
And I thank you, the viewers, for your loyalty for doing that.
00:18:49.360
My primary question is, will Justin Trudeau survive the summer?
00:18:57.360
Now, his father decided to step down in 1984 on February 29th.
00:19:14.360
He took a walk in the blizzard and decided he was going to step down as prime minister.
00:19:21.360
After all those years, almost 16 years as prime minister.
00:19:26.360
Will Justin Trudeau take the summer months to think about his future?
00:19:42.360
He's delusional to think the Liberal Party deserves to win.
00:19:47.360
But, you know, I was watching a segment of Redacted the other day.
00:19:53.360
And the segment was focused on how we are so close to a nuclear war.
00:20:07.360
To the extent that I think we don't really believe it's going to happen.
00:20:22.360
How nuclear war is a feasible option because of what NATO is demanding.
00:20:29.360
And you start a war with Russia, it's no small matter.
00:20:36.360
It will very quickly evolve into a nuclear confrontation and a nuclear war.
00:20:43.360
And that's going to happen if NATO does not get out of its delusion.
00:20:48.360
And that's exactly what the guest was talking about with Clayton Morris.
00:20:53.360
There is a delusion amongst world leaders right now.
00:21:03.360
The Democrats might force him out because he can't win the next election.
00:21:09.360
Justin Trudeau thinks he can win another election.
00:21:13.360
Steven Gilbo thinks he can sit there and tell you not to drive your gas powered vehicle.
00:21:23.360
And not to use the air conditioner in the summer.
00:21:27.360
Not this guy who flies to China every September to hobnob with his communist comrades.
00:21:32.360
Not Justin Trudeau who flies around the world on his private jet.
00:21:43.360
And the liberal government is delusional to think all they have to do is say eight out of ten Canadians receive more back from the carbon rebate than they do from being subject to the carbon tax.
00:22:01.360
The parliamentary budget officer has said it's a lie.
00:22:11.360
Natural resources minister Jonathan Wilkinson repeats it every time he stands up.
00:22:17.360
Steven Gilbo repeats it every time he stands up.
00:22:26.360
It's from a script that is completely unbalanced and untrue.
00:22:33.360
But it's because this is a delusional government.
00:22:37.360
You might recall the Bible talks about, and this is not a religious broadcast, but I can't resist saying this.
00:22:44.360
The Bible talks in 2 Thessalonians about the end times being a period of where God sends strong delusion because people did not believe the truth.
00:22:55.360
And that's exactly what we are participating in and what we're experiencing right now.
00:23:00.360
Strong delusion from politicians around the world.
00:23:04.360
Politicians who think Canadians are going to just suck it up.
00:23:09.360
We're just going to keep taking this authoritarian government.
00:23:12.360
We're going to keep taking this climate change mantra.
00:23:21.360
We're going to accept a government that takes two thirds of our capital gains.
00:23:26.360
And Trudeau keeps saying, oh, it's only going to affect the very wealthy or the wealthiest Canadians.
00:23:48.360
You're being taxed on income you already paid tax on.
00:23:52.360
So stop saying it's only hurting or affecting the super rich.
00:24:09.360
This liberal government's taking my money away.
00:24:15.360
But I tell you, I can't afford to live on $60,000 a year like Chrystia Freeland thinks everybody's living on.
00:24:26.360
I will continue to broadcast six to seven days a week throughout the summer.
00:24:32.360
I'll continue to work for you and report the news that you need to know.
00:24:36.360
I want to thank you for being a solid supporter of Stand on Guard and the Creighton's Right Network.
00:24:57.360
And I wanted to spend some time with you, my supporters, my subscribers, the people who make this station what it is.
00:25:07.360
And I'll be back again tomorrow with more news and hopefully some good news.
