00:00:01.000 There's a lot going on right now.
00:00:04.000 I understand these past years haven't just been hard.
00:00:07.000 They've been exhausting.
00:00:09.000 The economy, climate change, and what's going on south of the border
00:00:13.000 leave all of us feeling nervous about the future.
00:00:16.000 Right now, Canadians have lost faith in our party,
00:00:19.000 and we have to earn back their trust.
00:00:22.000 We need to rebuild our party so that we can keep building our country.
00:00:27.000 Oh, no, I haven't become an apologist for the Liberal Party,
00:00:32.000 or certainly not Karina Gould, but you wouldn't believe anybody
00:00:36.000 would have the gall to put an ad out like that yesterday.
00:00:39.000 Karina Gould just became the third, well, actually the fifth,
00:00:43.000 the third candidate in the Liberal leadership race that anybody knows.
00:00:46.000 But will there be an actual Liberal leadership race,
00:00:51.000 or is this all a facade for Justin Trudeau to come back?
00:00:55.000 When we come back, more about what I'm talking about.
00:01:11.000 We need a political change.
00:01:14.000 But we also need to resolve to resist.
00:01:18.000 Yes, please subscribe, please like the broadcast, and we really appreciate it,
00:01:31.000 because that's what a small station like this needs.
00:01:34.000 Sorry, I'm a little out of...
00:01:38.000 Hope you were able to watch the broadcast last night,
00:01:41.000 a live broadcast with my friends.
00:01:44.000 Fantastic evening.
00:01:48.000 Unfortunately, you can't see it on YouTube, but look at that.
00:01:53.000 And you can see it there.
00:01:55.000 And very interesting evening.
00:01:57.000 But Karina Gould, now the third real candidate that people actually know her name,
00:02:04.000 always for the wrong reasons.
00:02:06.000 But here she is saying, yes, we need to earn your trust back.
00:02:11.000 She has been part of the problem for nine years.
00:02:14.000 Karina Gould is a disaster.
00:02:16.000 She's the one who invited the former Waffen-SS member,
00:02:19.000 Yaroslav Hunka, to come to the House of Commons and listen to Ola Zelinsky's speech.
00:02:25.000 She's the one that stood proudly with Hunka before the event with the speaker.
00:02:32.000 You remember those pictures?
00:02:34.000 Oh, that's Karina Gould.
00:02:37.000 And after this fiasco, she said, let's forget it all and excise it from the House of Commons.
00:02:42.000 Hansard, pretend it never happened.
00:02:44.000 They needed unanimous consent to do that.
00:02:46.000 They didn't get it.
00:02:48.000 Thank God.
00:02:49.000 That's so Orwellian.
00:02:50.000 And the Conservative Party actually said that at the time.
00:02:53.000 Smacks too much of George Orwell in 1984.
00:02:56.000 But Karina Gould is irrelevant.
00:02:59.000 Nobody's going to vote for her.
00:03:01.000 So it's really between Christy Freeland and Mark Carney.
00:03:05.000 But why are both of them like non-candidates?
00:03:09.000 Mark Carney's day one introduction into the race, we reported on that the last time.
00:03:14.000 It was a disaster.
00:03:16.000 He arrives in a stretch limo, has a Cree woman say a prayer in Cree.
00:03:25.000 It reminded me actually of the other Randy who pretended to be Cree. 0.62
00:03:29.000 This woman is genuine.
00:03:31.000 That's not taking any of that away from her.
00:03:33.000 But she didn't even know Mark Carney.
00:03:35.000 She announced that day that she had Googled Mark Carney and discovered he was just a great guy.
00:03:40.000 Is this a joke is what I'm saying?
00:03:42.000 Is this a big joke?
00:03:44.000 Mark Carney, he can't speak.
00:03:46.000 He's a horrible public speaker.
00:03:48.000 He's not the least bit, shall we say, embracing.
00:03:56.000 And even less so is Christy Freeland.
00:04:00.000 She is dismissive.
00:04:01.000 She's autocratic. 0.96
00:04:02.000 She's supercilious.
00:04:03.000 She's authoritarian.
00:04:04.000 She acts like a school marm who knows better than everybody in the room. 0.97
00:04:11.000 Doesn't exactly present those warm and fuzzies.
00:04:17.000 I hate that old character, but that is exactly what we're looking at with these two candidates.
00:04:27.000 And Karina Gould, of course, really a joke to even be in the contest. 1.00
00:04:31.000 But she's there, I guess, just so they can say there's some kind of a race.
00:04:36.000 But what's really happening here?
00:04:39.000 Once again, you came to the right place.
00:04:43.000 Here's the story of the day.
00:04:47.000 Globe and Mail reported this.
00:04:49.000 I had James Manson of the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedoms on the show this week.
00:04:57.000 Yeah, that's the one where you could barely hear me.
00:04:59.000 But we did repost it up the volume.
00:05:03.000 Something funny was going on there.
00:05:05.000 Judge agrees to expedite legal challenge of Trudeau's move to prorogue Parliament.
00:05:09.000 Big, big news.
00:05:13.000 What does this mean?
00:05:15.000 It means the Supreme Court could overrule the prorogation of Parliament
00:05:21.000 and bring back Parliament as early as, say, February 14th or 15th.
00:05:27.000 What does that day, February 14th, trigger in your mind?
00:05:32.000 Well, yes, I know it's Valentine's Day.
00:05:35.000 What else?
00:05:37.000 Well, it's the third anniversary of the invocation of the Emergencies Act.
00:05:42.000 Justin Trudeau, and of course, in his twisted poetic sense,
00:05:48.000 invoked the Emergencies Act on Valentine's Day.
00:05:50.000 It was not an act of love.
00:05:52.000 It was an act of vicious hatred against protesters he disagreed with.
00:05:57.000 It was an act of complete enmity against his political opponents.
00:06:02.000 And it was a very, I can't say embodiment.
00:06:07.000 It was the reification of his detestation of democracy.
00:06:13.000 That's what that was all about.
00:06:14.000 Now, here's what the court said here.
00:06:16.000 Yes, I'll have to put my glasses on.
00:06:18.000 People hate it when they squint.
00:06:19.000 This is the Justice Center for Constitutional Freedom's application.
00:06:23.000 The applicants maintain that their application is cruelly urgent
00:06:26.000 and requires the court's immediate attention to determine whether the parliament can immediately resume sitting
00:06:31.000 to protect Canada's interests in the face of threatened actions by the United States.
00:06:37.000 Those threatened actions are stated to be president-elect Trump's stated intention to impose a 25% tariff on all goods entering the United States from Canada on his first day in office as president.
00:06:50.000 The court agreed with that.
00:06:52.000 Is it possible Justin Trudeau is losing support even in the judiciary?
00:06:58.000 But is it possible Justin Trudeau anticipated this happening?
00:07:01.000 Think about this for a second.
00:07:03.000 Is it possible that Justin Trudeau anticipated precisely the court deciding this, that they would have to go back to parliament?
00:07:14.000 And what if the NDP decides, hey, now's our chance?
00:07:19.000 Now's our chance to bring this government down because the liberals are weakened.
00:07:24.000 They don't have a new leader.
00:07:26.000 They'll have to go with Justin Trudeau.
00:07:28.000 Do you think that's the plan, though, from the beginning?
00:07:30.000 Why do you think Justin Trudeau has been wandering around looking like a candidate?
00:07:36.000 Going to events, you know, glad-handing, having a great time, looking like he's just too happy.
00:07:45.000 I wonder if this was the plan from the beginning.
00:07:48.000 Now, what did I tell you before five weeks ago?
00:07:53.000 We've already seen this happen.
00:07:56.000 And guess whose political career it happened to?
00:08:01.000 Yeah.
00:08:02.000 Justin Trudeau's apparent father, Pierre Trudeau.
00:08:07.000 Now, Justin Trudeau would vaguely remember this.
00:08:12.000 But this was 1979, and I've explained this before.
00:08:17.000 The Liberal Party is out of power after 16 years.
00:08:31.000 The Liberal Party has been in power since 1963 under Lester Pearson.
00:08:36.000 It goes through five years minority governments under Pearson.
00:08:40.000 Pierre Trudeau becomes the leader of the party in 1968, gets a majority.
00:08:46.000 Pierre Trudeau is in power from 1968 to 79.
00:08:49.000 He's defeated on May 22nd of that year by Joe Clark, the progressive conservative, who I really have no time for today.
00:08:56.000 But that's beside the point.
00:08:59.000 He ended all of those years, 16 years of Trudeau and Pearson rule, Liberal Party rule.
00:09:07.000 Justin Trudeau, Pierre Trudeau does not like being the leader of the official opposition.
00:09:12.000 It's obvious he hates the job and he decides in November to resign.
00:09:19.000 Now, let's have a look at this because people always say, yeah, I remember when Trudeau resigned.
00:09:25.000 If you're around in 1984, he decided to resign, took that walk in the snow in Ottawa here.
00:09:34.000 It was a February evening, February 29th, actually, because it was leap year.
00:09:42.000 And that only comes once in four years.
00:09:44.000 So people joked, you can only celebrate Trudeau's demise every four years.
00:09:49.000 So that is what happened in 1984.
00:09:53.000 But what happened in 1979, Trudeau resigned for the first time.
00:09:57.000 And the party begged him to come back because there was a snap election in 1980, in February, February 28th, I believe it was.
00:10:07.000 There was a snap election.
00:10:09.000 The Liberal Party did not have a new leader.
00:10:12.000 In fact, they barely begun to have a leadership convention or planning for a leadership convention.
00:10:19.000 They were caught off guards.
00:10:20.000 So they said to Pierre Trudeau, please come back, leave the party.
00:10:24.000 And let's watch this, because this is precisely what's happening right now with Justin Trudeau.
00:10:31.000 ...nearly 12 years as leader of the Liberal Party, I'm stepping down...
00:10:35.000 ...that after spending nearly 12 years as leader of the Liberal Party, I'm stepping down from the leadership
00:10:41.000 and asking the national executive of the party to call a convention for next March to choose a new leader.
00:10:48.000 There's no easy way or ideal time to leave.
00:10:52.000 Trudeau said today he's going to stay on in politics and that he'll try again to become Canada's Prime Minister.
00:10:59.000 I have accepted the strong appeal of the National Liberal Caucus and the National Liberal Executive,
00:11:06.000 and I will lead our party in the current election campaign.
00:11:09.000 If they love me so much that they want me forever, the answer is, I'm sorry they can't have me.
00:11:15.000 But if they want me and our party for a few years, well, we're here.
00:11:20.000 Trudeau's decision left most of the Liberals here and in the National Executive gasping in relief.
00:11:26.000 That's the way it was with Pierre Trudeau.
00:11:33.000 The Liberal Party begged him to come back because there was a snap surprise election and they were unprepared.
00:11:39.000 This could happen if the court decides prorogation never happened and the House of Commons is back in session on February 14th or 15th.
00:11:50.000 Good chance the NDP could vote with the Conservatives on a non-confidence motion because there'll never be a better chance for the NDP at that point.
00:12:00.000 That would be their opportunity to try to salvage what they can from the disaster they've made under Jagmeet Singh.
00:12:07.000 And as I said, Jagmeet Singh would get his pension.
00:12:11.000 That's not going to be a barrier because that's been the barrier up till now.
00:12:16.000 Jagmeet Singh refuses to have a non-confidence vote, refuses to bring the government down because he's waiting to get his pension date, which is in March.
00:12:24.000 Bring the government down in mid-February.
00:12:26.000 There won't be an election until at least March 15th.
00:12:29.000 Minimum is four weeks.
00:12:32.000 So Jagmeet Singh is safe.
00:12:34.000 He can get his pension.
00:12:36.000 And that's what comes down to in politics.
00:12:38.000 It's that greedy.
00:12:39.000 It's that venal. 1.00
00:12:41.000 It's that disgusting. 0.93
00:12:43.000 That's what politics in Canada has come to.
00:12:45.000 Now, Justin Trudeau could well say, just like his father said, well, if you want me back, I'll come back.
00:12:53.000 Maybe not for good.
00:12:55.000 Maybe not forever.
00:12:57.000 But I'll come back just to leave the party in next election because you need me.
00:13:01.000 And besides.
00:13:03.000 Who else have they got?
00:13:07.000 We'll have a look at the polls in a minute here.
00:13:11.000 They're not doing any better under Mark Carney or Christy Freeland than they were under Justin Trudeau.
00:13:17.000 And as I said, Justin Trudeau is going to use the fight with Donald Trump as a reason for Canadians to rally around the Liberal Party, which he says represents Canada, which he says represents all parties.
00:13:33.000 Now, if you're not with Justin Trudeau, if you're not with Team Trudeau, you're treasonous.
00:13:39.000 You're against the country. 0.68
00:13:41.000 You're being selfish. 0.82
00:13:43.000 You're being selfish.
00:13:44.000 Doug Ford thinks so.
00:13:46.000 Doug Ford is in Trudeau's pocket.
00:13:48.000 The only premier who's saying no is Daniel Smith.
00:13:51.000 And she's right.
00:13:52.000 Because the federal government has no right to tell Alberta where it can sell its gas.
00:13:58.000 Daniel Smith in standing up for Alberta sovereignty in this area is standing up for Canada because that's what Canada is based on.
00:14:09.000 Provincial autonomy over natural resources.
00:14:12.000 That's about Canada as well as provincial rights.
00:14:16.000 People need to remember that.
00:14:19.000 Justin Trudeau has no right to infringe upon provincial autonomy just because he wants to be the guy who's fighting Donald Trump.
00:14:27.000 But Justin Trudeau will use the trade war.
00:14:30.000 He'll use the fight against Donald Trump to say that he's Mr. Canada or he's the Sun King.
00:14:36.000 La tate c'est moi.
00:14:39.000 That is Justin Trudeau's strategy all along.
00:14:41.000 He'll continue to do it.
00:14:43.000 Let's listen to this little piece from Nick Nanos.
00:14:46.000 Joining me now to dig deeper into these numbers is founder and chief data scientist at Nanos Research, Nick Nanos.
00:14:53.000 Nick, thanks for being on the boat.
00:14:54.000 Right now, they're way behind.
00:14:56.000 They're 27 points back at the Conservatives.
00:14:58.000 Just think, the Liberals were worried when they were 10 points back, 15 points back, 20 points back.
00:15:04.000 27, mucho big.
00:15:06.000 That's a mucho big advantage.
00:15:07.000 Yeah, but like they say, the most dangerous lead in hockey is a three-goal lead, right?
00:15:11.000 And it seems insurmountable.
00:15:12.000 And then, who knows?
00:15:13.000 I'm kidding.
00:15:14.000 I'm really kidding about that one.
00:15:15.000 But you had some polling recently specifically on Chrystia Freeland, though, and how people felt about her after her resignation from Cabinet.
00:15:23.000 Could the impression of Ms. Freeland improve even more now?
00:15:26.000 I think so.
00:15:27.000 And I think a lot of this will have to do with her launch and what she decides to focus on.
00:15:30.000 The big question is, as the former Deputy Prime Minister, as the former Minister of Finance, as a former kind of ranking Liberal that supported Justin Trudeau, how far will she go to distance herself from her former political?
00:15:45.000 Those numbers are terrible, by the way.
00:15:48.000 If you look at those numbers.
00:15:51.000 She hasn't gained an inch of traction.
00:15:53.000 And she's just as unpopular as ever.
00:15:55.000 An ally and colleague.
00:15:57.000 And I think that's going to be the big question because she's been at the table, been an advocate, and has fought hard beside Justin Trudeau over the last number of years.
00:16:07.000 And, you know, right now, his brand is weak.
00:16:10.000 And that's one of the things that's dragging down the Liberal brand writ large.
00:16:14.000 So, I think, how far will she distance herself from everything that she's done, basically, since 2015?
00:16:21.000 Well, we already got a bit of an indication this week, right, where we had reporting that she has already said she would likely walk away or very much scrap the consumer carbon tax.
00:16:31.000 How much do you think that will be a factor, not only with the field of candidates and where they will sort of sit on that, but going into an election?
00:16:38.000 Is that going to be the ballot box question against Pierre Polyev as he wants it, especially when you consider where the leadership is going?
00:16:45.000 Well, I think this is an exercise in damage control for the Liberals.
00:16:48.000 Like, you know, the carbon tax has been unpopular.
00:16:50.000 Canadians are worried about the rising cost of living.
00:16:52.000 And for some people, and in some cases, this is a contributor because it contributes to food, you know, being shipped around. 0.99
00:16:59.000 But, you know, the thing is, is that for average Canadians, why don't we just say, they're not stupid. 0.60
00:17:05.000 You know, they hear politicians reverse themselves and they know that it's just part of a survival strategy.
00:17:10.000 So, you know, for the Liberals, they might, you know, the contenders might reverse themselves on the carbon tax.
00:17:15.000 But, you know, for her, she actually has to explain how she can go from being 100% behind the carbon tax and being at the table and being the advocate for the carbon tax to reversing herself.
00:17:28.000 And, you know, the same applies to Mark Kearney because we have to be fair.
00:17:30.000 He's been supportive of the carbon tax.
00:17:32.000 Yeah.
00:17:33.000 He's been a leader on kind of environmental issues.
00:17:35.000 And, you know, he's also kind of backpedaling on stuff like that.
00:17:39.000 Yeah.
00:17:40.000 And imagine the polling that you've either started or tried to start on potential contenders and where they were fair really differs based on day-to-day because somebody drops out seemingly every day and somebody else puts their name in there.
00:17:51.000 But are we really going to see the emergence here of a two-horse race?
00:17:54.000 And we know that Karina Gould, the Liberal House leader, is going to announce this weekend.
00:17:59.000 But do you think this really is Kearney versus Freeland?
00:18:01.000 I think so, based on, you know, the speculation right now.
00:18:04.000 And you know what?
00:18:05.000 A two-person race is probably good for the Liberals because it'll focus. 0.99
00:18:10.000 And, of course, Nick Nanos can't see the forest for the trees.
00:18:15.000 Two-person race.
00:18:17.000 This two-person race is a setup.
00:18:20.000 Conceivably.
00:18:21.000 I'm not going to put money on this.
00:18:23.000 But anything is possible right now in politics.
00:18:26.000 And everything Justin Trudeau is doing indicates he's not finished with politics.
00:18:31.000 He's actively out there campaigning.
00:18:33.000 He's presenting himself as the embodiment of Canada.
00:18:36.000 And if you're against Justin Trudeau, you're with Donald Trump.
00:18:39.000 He says it all the time.
00:18:41.000 Daniel Smith and Pierre Poly are with Donald Trump because they're not supporting me.
00:18:46.000 Nick is missing this entirely.
00:18:48.000 But in terms of the leadership race that's actually happening, he's right about that.
00:18:52.000 There's only two people who manage.
00:18:54.000 You know, if you remember, Michael, some of those massive leadership contests
00:18:58.000 where they have like 20, 12, 15 people on the stage,
00:19:03.000 that it doesn't allow for the same type of clarity.
00:19:07.000 And, you know, Canadians like a horse race. 1.00
00:19:09.000 And I think for the two frontrunners, Freeland and Kearney, it'll be good for both of them
00:19:14.000 to have a main contender to put pressure on each other so that we can see who will get the advantage.
00:19:23.000 Do you think in the end this will come down to what Canadians will look at this as, what they want as the Liberal leader?
00:19:30.000 But then going forward as a prime minister is who is best placed to take on Donald Trump because of where we are in this environment right now?
00:19:37.000 I think the two things that Canadians are going to look at is how far will the winner of the Liberal leadership race distance themselves from the previous government?
00:19:46.000 Is it really a break from the past?
00:19:49.000 And then the second question, which also applies to Pierre Poiliev, who might be best to help Canada navigate a Trump administration and to deal with Donald Trump?
00:19:59.000 Yes.
00:20:01.000 Yes.
00:20:02.000 Now, Mark Kearney and Christia Freeland, a two-way race.
00:20:07.000 Does it matter if either of them win or lose?
00:20:11.000 Or is the answer someplace else?
00:20:14.000 Let's have a look at what Christia Freeland presented.
00:20:17.000 Now, we've seen Mark Kearney's introduction to the race.
00:20:20.000 It was a bit of a joke.
00:20:22.000 Even the Toronto Star said, wow, what a letdown.
00:20:26.000 Here's this guy, the golden boy of liberal politics.
00:20:31.000 That's exactly how they described John Turner in 1984, by the way.
00:20:35.000 He was the golden boy who's going to come back and save the Liberal Party because Pierre Trudeau was so unpopular in 1984.
00:20:42.000 That's the year, you know, somebody gave him the finger in British Columbia when he was sitting on a train and he lowered the shade, but he put his finger out the window.
00:20:50.000 That was the year, and Pierre Trudeau was hugely unpopular.
00:20:54.000 So he resigned.
00:20:55.000 Yeah.
00:20:56.000 And of course, Paul Martin was the other golden boy.
00:21:00.000 He was going to save things after Jean Chrétien had spent 10 years in office.
00:21:06.000 Didn't work in that case either.
00:21:09.000 So will it work with Christia Freeland?
00:21:11.000 I don't think she's ever going to have a chance to see.
00:21:14.000 And on a little secret, Donald Trump doesn't like me very much.
00:21:18.000 Canada, we don't like their representative very much.
00:21:22.000 I'm a tough negotiator.
00:21:23.000 During the first Trump administration, I fought hard to protect Canadian jobs, the Canadian economy, and our way of life.
00:21:31.000 And we won.
00:21:32.000 I left Trudeau's cabinet because I know what we need to do to win that fight again.
00:21:37.000 See, now it's Trudeau's cabinet, like that thing over there, that horrible device, that mechanism that I don't know how I could ever have been involved with it.
00:21:49.000 It's like saying she stopped using drugs.
00:21:52.000 I left Trudeau's cabinet, and she was an integral part of that cabinet as deputy prime minister and finance minister.
00:22:02.000 For nine and a half years, she was an integral part of the Trudeau government.
00:22:08.000 And now suddenly, I don't know what I ever had to do with that party.
00:22:13.000 That really is horrible.
00:22:15.000 Donald Trump and his billionaire buddies think they can push us around.
00:22:21.000 Trump thinks we're for sale.
00:22:23.000 But he can take what isn't his.
00:22:25.000 We're not going to let us.
00:22:27.000 We're a proud country.
00:22:29.000 The true north.
00:22:30.000 Strong and free.
00:22:32.000 A country of smart, caring, and hardworking people.
00:22:36.000 A country that gets big things done.
00:22:39.000 A country worth fighting for.
00:22:42.000 I've got to stop there and make this obvious comment.
00:22:47.000 So now we're all about Terry Fox.
00:22:50.000 We're all about hockey games.
00:22:52.000 We're all about helping each other.
00:22:54.000 What about all of this gender-affirming care?
00:22:57.000 What about medical assistance in dying?
00:23:00.000 What about woke politics?
00:23:03.000 What about spending tens of billions of millions of dollars on LGBTQ causes?
00:23:09.000 What about telling parents they have no right to raise their children?
00:23:12.000 That's the Canada that Christia Freeland was trying to build. 1.00
00:23:18.000 That's the Canada the Liberal Party stands for.
00:23:22.000 Not some Canada that actually Pierre Pauliev has been talking about.
00:23:27.000 Where people can actually make some money at their jobs and protect their kids and their families.
00:23:32.000 Pauliev will bow down to Trump and sell us out.
00:23:37.000 This moment matters for all of us.
00:23:44.000 I'm running to be leader of the Liberal Party and our next Prime Minister.
00:23:49.000 I'm in this to fight for you.
00:23:51.000 To fight for Canadians.
00:23:53.000 To fight for Canada.
00:23:55.000 Join me.
00:23:56.000 Join the fight.
00:23:58.000 All right, Christy has had a nice makeover. 1.00
00:24:02.000 She's had about a month now or more of relaxation away from the hurly-burly of cabinet.
00:24:10.000 She looks a lot better.
00:24:12.000 She looks much more relaxed.
00:24:15.000 Maybe she's even had some Botox. 0.90
00:24:17.000 I don't know.
00:24:18.000 But she looks much better.
00:24:19.000 Really, really looking as well as Christy Freeland ever does.
00:24:23.000 And she's even talking like she understands you.
00:24:26.000 She's even talking like she cares about ordinary Canadians.
00:24:29.000 Of course, she doesn't.
00:24:31.000 She never has.
00:24:32.000 This is the woman, of course, who has been vociferous in her support of very questionable regiments in Ukraine.
00:24:41.000 I can't get into details on that right now.
00:24:45.000 But can you take her seriously for a minute that she really thinks she's going to be the next Liberal leader?
00:24:51.000 And of course, what does she do? 0.97
00:24:53.000 Even though she was saying, I don't know how I could ever have been a part of that Trudeau cabinet.
00:24:59.000 I left Trudeau's cabinet.
00:25:02.000 I was part of that government, but I don't know what was wrong with it.
00:25:05.000 What was I thinking?
00:25:07.000 So Christy Freeland now says it's all about Donald Trump.
00:25:11.000 Oh, it's all about fighting Donald Trump.
00:25:14.000 And if you're not fighting Donald Trump with me.
00:25:17.000 Then you're not on the right side.
00:25:19.000 You can't fight it with Pierre Paul.
00:25:21.000 No, Pierre Paul doesn't understand.
00:25:23.000 Pierre Paul is on the wrong side.
00:25:25.000 He's in Donald Trump's pocket, even though Pierre Paul has been saying nothing like that.
00:25:30.000 He's been saying Canada is not going to be the 51st state.
00:25:34.000 And of course, Donald Trump isn't serious about that.
00:25:38.000 He's been saying we need to sit down with Donald Trump from a Canada first perspective, not from a team Trudeau perspective, which, of course, is what Christy Freeland is leading to.
00:25:49.000 But what does this all mean?
00:25:51.000 What does this all mean?
00:25:54.000 All she's really doing, despite the fact she's pretending to distance herself from Justin Trudeau's cabinet, from Justin Trudeau's government, she's repeating the same talking points that Justin Trudeau has been repeating all week. 0.99
00:26:09.000 Which is, thank you, Doug Ford, for coming on side and being in my pocket, as you always are when I do stupid things. 0.99
00:26:18.000 Thank you, Doug Ford, for supporting me. 0.99
00:26:22.000 And Daniel Smith, you're a traitor to Canada because you are defending your province and you're defending, actually, the Canadian Constitution. 0.96
00:26:32.000 That makes you a potential traitor to Canada. 0.95
00:26:38.000 Oh, and dear Polly, you're you're not on my side either.
00:26:42.000 So that means you are against Canada and you're on Donald Trump's side.
00:26:46.000 Christy Freeland is repeating the talking points that Justin Trudeau is repeating.
00:26:51.000 Could that indicate that this is all a big game?
00:26:57.000 This liberal leadership campaign with Mark Carney pretending he really wants to be the leader of a party that's headed for a political extinction.
00:27:06.000 That Christy Freeland pretending she's a new woman.
00:27:12.000 She represents change.
00:27:16.000 It's all a huge facade.
00:27:19.000 And listen to how the liberal cabinet ministers, the remnant of the liberal cabinet ministers, continue to frame this battle with Donald Trump.
00:27:31.000 Saying things are not even authorized to say this.
00:27:35.000 Here's the inimitable Melanie Joly.
00:27:38.000 Now, I saw a thing yesterday on YouTube, some YouTube wag suggesting that she had a drug problem.
00:27:45.000 I mean, we don't need to go there because nobody knows that.
00:27:50.000 You know, that's really not necessary.
00:27:54.000 We need to just listen to what she says and judge whether or not she's an effective or competent minister.
00:28:01.000 And stop speculating about her private life and making and inventing vulgar headlines.
00:28:08.000 Because that just hurts all of us.
00:28:10.000 Trump is going ahead with tariffs.
00:28:13.000 He's starting a trade war.
00:28:15.000 And of course we will retaliate.
00:28:17.000 And you know what will happen for all those watching us right now?
00:28:20.000 Oh, everything, Melanie.
00:28:23.000 Trade war.
00:28:24.000 That's what you wanted from day one.
00:28:26.000 That's what what's what Justin Trudeau has wanted from day one.
00:28:28.000 And I've said that repeatedly.
00:28:30.000 This whole leadership facade is all about sending out people like Melanie Joly and Dominique LeBlanc to say we're going to have a trade war with the United States, which, of course, we cannot win.
00:28:43.000 But Melanie Joly, we're going to have a trade war against Donald Trump.
00:28:47.000 Now, this will be a Trump tariff tax on Americans because this will have an impact on jobs in many, many states.
00:28:56.000 Thirty five states have Canada as the main export market.
00:29:00.000 And at the same time, we know that we can do a lot to make sure that ultimately at the grocery store, at the pump, when it comes to heating costs, we can try to think to make sure that things are not as costly.
00:29:16.000 But if we have twenty five percent tariffs against us, of course, we will retaliate.
00:29:21.000 And of course, that will translate into attacks on Americans.
00:29:25.000 Can you describe in any greater detail exactly how Canada would retaliate?
00:29:29.000 Listen, we still want to make sure that we get to listen.
00:29:34.000 No, I don't, is the answer, because she has no authority to make statements about natural resources that she doesn't control without any tariffs. 0.98
00:29:44.000 We think we can get there. We have the USMCA, which was, according to President Trump himself, the best deal ever signed by by the American administration.
00:29:56.000 We believe it was a win win. We believe that we're able to create jobs together.
00:30:00.000 And we know that we have to continue to fight inflation.
00:30:04.000 At the same time, we will continue to make sure that we fight back if there is a threat and everything is on the table.
00:30:13.000 Well, we know that when we impose tariffs, these are revenues that go to the...
00:30:20.000 This is really embarrassing to watch, actually.
00:30:23.000 This is your foreign affairs minister explaining what a tariff is.
00:30:28.000 Does this remind you of Kamala Harris?
00:30:32.000 Is Melanie Jolie sort of like Canada's Kamala Harris?
00:30:36.000 Maybe ethnically not quite the same, but intellectually, they seem to be separated at birth.
00:30:43.000 We also know that, meanwhile, things become more costly across the country because of the fact that Americans are imposing tariffs on us.
00:30:57.000 Oh, I see, Melanie. Tariffs mean things become more costly.
00:31:02.000 Oh, I get it.
00:31:04.000 But do you understand any of the dynamics behind how you can't cut off oil and gas to the United States without cutting off oil and gas to Ontario and Quebec?
00:31:15.000 Have you even looked into that?
00:31:16.000 And so based on that, we want to make sure that ultimately, indeed, we use the revenues to support Canadians.
00:31:25.000 But at the same time, Tana, we're still working on the first phase of our response, which is to prevent tariffs.
00:31:36.000 We know that we can make sure ultimately also, while we're putting everything on the table in terms of retaliation, that we can work with different provinces across the country, including those that have specific industries that Americans rely on.
00:31:55.000 And so that's why I think we can have really positive and constructive relationships and conversations with provinces and with premiers.
00:32:03.000 And of course, the prime minister is very open to that because we know that the impacts on Canadians would be really, really, really difficult.
00:32:13.000 And why I'm saying that is we know that there would be lots of job loss across the country.
00:32:20.000 And we know that this would also have an impact on cost of living for Canadians.
00:32:27.000 I won't go into the details of what that figure is like, but definitely.
00:32:33.000 Why won't you go into details because you don't have a head for details or because you don't have them?
00:32:39.000 Clearly, this is somebody is out of her depth.
00:32:43.000 I say that all the time.
00:32:44.000 We discuss Melanie, but she could at least have the decency to tell us what her trade war is going to entail. 0.97
00:32:51.000 And she can't tell you that we have numbers that are highlighting how much this could be devastating.
00:32:59.000 This would be basically starting a trade war.
00:33:01.000 The Americans would be starting a trade war against us, and this would be the biggest trade war between Canada and US in decades.
00:33:11.000 We've gone through a very difficult moment during COVID where we had to save many businesses and save a lot of livelihoods across the country.
00:33:24.000 And so we have the experience of how we can address severe economic damage.
00:33:30.000 At the same time, I think that there is.
00:33:34.000 Did the Liberals save businesses during COVID?
00:33:38.000 No, the lockdowns actually crushed businesses across Canada.
00:33:42.000 Some of them never reopened.
00:33:44.000 You didn't save anything.
00:33:46.000 The hope that if we use our levers well, that we can make sure that Americans backtrack.
00:33:53.000 And that's why I've been saying everything is on the table and we have to be able to show how much this will have an impact also on the other side of the border, which is job losses also in key states.
00:34:14.000 Yeah, blackout.
00:34:16.000 Melanie looks like she's about to go on a blackout in that interview. 0.70
00:34:19.000 It's quite, quite interesting.
00:34:21.000 I'm not inferring anything there, but it's very, very strange demeanor in that interview.
00:34:27.000 It's like she's reading from a script and she's almost sleepwalking, son of ballistic in her posture and the way she's speaking.
00:34:38.000 I find it quite unnerving actually to watch.
00:34:40.000 But how many times did she say trade war, trade war, trade war?
00:34:47.000 Because that's Justin Trudeau's talking point right now.
00:34:50.000 Now, the only one who's got any sense about this is Alberta Premier Daniel Smith.
00:34:58.000 And once again, she is outlining exactly what Donald Trump needs to know.
00:35:05.000 Did you know the United States has a $53 billion trade surplus with Canada when you cut out oil and gas?
00:35:19.000 When oil and gas is not included.
00:35:23.000 Look at that.
00:35:25.000 And the point that Daniel Smith continues to make.
00:35:30.000 The point that she continues to make.
00:35:36.000 Is that we cannot cut off oil and gas to the United States without cutting it off to Ontario and Quebec.
00:35:43.000 It comes from the same pipeline.
00:35:46.000 It comes from the same pipeline.
00:35:48.000 The United States needs Canadian oil because its refineries are geared towards the kind of oil we produce in Canada.
00:35:58.000 In other words, there's not enough American oil for the type of refineries they have in the United States, if that simplifies it.
00:36:10.000 So the United States needs Canadian oil to refine.
00:36:15.000 So it's nonsense for Donald Trump to say, we don't need your oil.
00:36:19.000 He's obviously not thinking about the larger picture or doesn't know the larger picture.
00:36:24.000 But interestingly enough, Justin Trudeau is doing exactly like Pop did when he waged war, the technical war against Alberta and Premier Peter Lougheed over ownership of oil and gas, especially oil.
00:36:40.000 At that time, Peter Lougheed won.
00:36:43.000 Alberta won, proving federal government does not have jurisdiction over natural resources or over provincial oil rights.
00:36:52.000 Now, that is the point that has to be made.
00:36:57.000 Justin Trudeau probably understands that, but he's ignoring it.
00:37:01.000 And Melanie Jolie, I don't know if she understands that, but she continues to say everything's on the table.
00:37:07.000 Keep repeating that line.
00:37:09.000 Everything's on the table.
00:37:10.000 Everything's on the table.
00:37:11.000 We're going to have a trade war.
00:37:13.000 You have no right to sell or not sell Alberta's oil.
00:37:17.000 And that's what it comes down to.
00:37:20.000 One last point here.
00:37:23.000 Interesting.
00:37:24.000 Canadian banks have said no to Mark Carney.
00:37:28.000 They were drawing from his net zero banking alliance.
00:37:33.000 Everything is indicating that nobody takes Mark Carney seriously.
00:37:40.000 Mark Carney is a spent commodity already.
00:37:45.000 And he's not even liberal leader yet.
00:37:48.000 But I'm telling you, I don't think he's going to ever be the next liberal leader.
00:37:55.000 Now, here we are.
00:37:56.000 It's Sunday, January 19th.
00:37:59.000 What's tomorrow?
00:38:00.000 It's inauguration day in the United States.
00:38:03.000 We're going to be watching very carefully to see what happens with Donald Trump's executive orders,
00:38:11.000 which will follow immediately after he's sworn in as president.
00:38:18.000 We will see what the response is from the Trudeau government.
00:38:21.000 And we will see.
00:38:24.000 What follows that.
00:38:26.000 And by the way, I wanted to mention.
00:38:30.000 Don't we've got these in the shop right now.
00:38:36.000 These are fantastic.
00:38:39.000 And I want to flag these right now.
00:38:45.000 And we will.
00:38:46.000 I just want to show you one more slide here.
00:38:51.000 We haven't done that.
00:39:06.000 I'm sorry.
00:39:07.000 Thank you so much for watching today, folks.
00:39:21.000 I wanted to bring that to your attention.
00:39:23.000 And here's a little bit of comedy to end the show.
00:39:28.000 Because this is what we're dealing with, with the Trudeau government and the Doug Ford government.
00:39:32.000 The cible that we're going to take is that we all agreed unanimously.
00:39:39.000 Any comments in English on that one?
00:39:41.000 I'm good.
00:39:42.000 Come on, get busy and sell this fish. 1.00
00:39:44.000 Fresh fish!
00:39:45.000 Fresh fish!
00:39:46.000 Fresh fish!
00:39:47.000 I'm good.
00:39:48.000 Thank you.
00:39:49.000 Fresh fish!
00:39:53.000 We'll be back again tomorrow with all the news you need to know.
00:39:56.000 Continue to resolve to resist.
00:39:58.000 Thanks for watching today.
00:40:00.000 Exciting times ahead.
00:40:01.000 We'll be there every day to let you know what's happening.
