00:00:00.000 Welcome back to another episode of Stand on Guard with David Creighton.
00:00:03.280 I am your host, David Creighton, and we've got a good show for you,
00:00:08.360 and we'll be back momentarily.
00:00:11.120 So we are in a very precarious position in this country.
00:00:15.360 We need political change, but we also need to resolve to resist.
00:00:19.800 Yeah, I'm back coming at you.
00:00:31.820 We've got a lot of material to discuss today.
00:00:34.880 It's a busy week, even though the House of Commons isn't sitting.
00:00:39.000 And if you're not aware of this, and I'm sure most of you are,
00:00:42.600 the news cycle in Canada, at least for federal politics,
00:00:46.360 is dictated by question period.
00:00:49.800 Even though it's not really questions, and it's not really answers.
00:00:54.400 And it's really just rank fader at times.
00:00:57.380 That is almost pointless.
00:01:00.660 But nonetheless, it dictates how the news cycle goes.
00:01:04.100 And when the House of Commons is not sitting, and there's no question period,
00:01:07.600 people tend to think, well, there's no news happening.
00:01:09.700 But that's not true.
00:01:11.760 And Justin Trudeau has been up to absolutely no good here in the last week.
00:01:16.600 As usual, he was overseas.
00:01:18.220 So, you know, we're going to be discussing that.
00:01:21.340 That's our first topic today.
00:01:22.640 NATO.
00:01:23.720 Will it implode or will it explode?
00:01:26.780 Now, what do I mean by that?
00:01:29.380 Well, either it's going to implode because there's a strain on the organization now
00:01:36.180 because the United States is giving cluster bombs to Ukraine.
00:01:40.640 And a lot of the member states don't agree with that, including Canada,
00:01:45.100 because Canada has banned cluster bombs.
00:01:46.920 So what else could they do except that we disagree with this?
00:01:51.640 United Kingdom, Germany, not very happy with this either.
00:01:54.600 So there do seem to be some rifts in the organization.
00:01:57.480 And there seems to be some rifts over whether Ukraine should be a member.
00:02:05.100 Now, Ukraine should never be a member of NATO.
00:02:08.240 It has no business being a member of NATO.
00:02:10.800 And this should be clear as crystal to anybody who understands geopolitics.
00:02:18.000 Ukraine is in a very unenviable position in terms of its geography.
00:02:23.600 It is nestled, you know, between inside of Russia, basically.
00:02:30.340 And it used to be a part of the Soviet Union.
00:02:33.420 And throughout the ages, parts of Ukraine have gone back and forth
00:02:38.700 in terms of who dominates that land.
00:02:42.000 Largely, it's been Russia.
00:02:44.000 And Russia began asserting its dominion over that area by taking Crimea back.
00:02:52.180 And there are definitely eastern territories in Ukraine that would support reentry
00:02:59.600 into the Commonwealth of Independent States or Russia.
00:03:04.820 And that would be no doubt.
00:03:07.760 Now, this war did not start on any legal basis.
00:03:13.140 But that doesn't change the fact that the war needs to end
00:03:17.760 because it's killing a lot of people.
00:03:20.500 Let's have a look at some of these articles here.
00:03:24.840 You know, NATO is definitely divided on the cluster bombs
00:03:32.740 and on whether or not Ukraine should be a member.
00:03:35.480 The United States is not pushing membership for Ukraine
00:03:38.800 because it knows it's upping the ante with war with Russia.
00:03:43.900 There are members of the Biden administration who want to do that, apparently.
00:03:47.900 But, you know, you can see the chaos.
00:03:51.720 I'll expand this story here.
00:03:53.880 And there was a lot of criticism from some of the NATO allies
00:04:03.160 that Ukraine takes a lot for granted.
00:04:06.400 And it demands everything.
00:04:10.180 It never even asks.
00:04:11.500 It demands increasing funding.
00:04:15.500 And it's wiping out its own population.
00:04:17.740 This is something, you know, nobody really wants to talk about very much.
00:04:21.240 But the population of Ukraine has been decimated,
00:04:24.420 not only in the last couple of years because of this war,
00:04:28.500 but leading up to it.
00:04:29.820 It's losing population.
00:04:32.160 It used to have a population about the size of Canada,
00:04:36.040 you know, 35 million or so.
00:04:37.540 And now it's drastically been hit.
00:04:42.900 And it's going down to about 20 million people.
00:04:46.180 Now, this war is having a huge effect on the population.
00:04:51.540 A lot of people are leaving the country
00:04:53.160 so they don't have to fight in the war.
00:04:54.500 And a lot of people are dying in the war.
00:04:57.700 The carnage is incredible.
00:05:00.640 And do you think this is an issue for Ukrainians?
00:05:03.640 Of course, do you think most Ukrainians want this war
00:05:05.780 to keep going endlessly?
00:05:08.260 And it will keep going as long as NATO continues
00:05:11.780 to pump money and resources into it.
00:05:14.280 It'll keep going until the last Ukrainian is dead.
00:05:17.340 And then Zelensky will expect you and I
00:05:19.580 to start fighting in his war.
00:05:22.520 The war has to be negotiated to an end.
00:05:28.000 That is quite clear.
00:05:29.600 Because that's the implosion of NATO right now.
00:05:32.600 If people can no longer stomach
00:05:35.300 giving away billions of dollars
00:05:37.440 to a petty tyrant like Zelensky,
00:05:41.680 knowing full well a lot of this money
00:05:44.140 is just being wasted.
00:05:48.140 A lot of it's going in the private hands.
00:05:50.220 A lot of it's going to the oligarchs.
00:05:51.900 And even the arms aren't necessarily going to the front lines.
00:05:56.140 It's being sold in the black market.
00:05:58.860 So this is not money well spent.
00:06:01.820 And despite the fools out there
00:06:04.280 in the American, Republican, and Democratic parties
00:06:07.240 in our own political establishment
00:06:09.240 who seem to think this is money well spent
00:06:11.800 because we're somehow containing Russia
00:06:14.820 from starting another third world war.
00:06:16.440 We are increasing the probability of a third world war
00:06:21.180 as we stay in this position of accelerating aid to Ukraine
00:06:26.600 and insisting it become a member of NATO.
00:06:29.560 Not going to happen.
00:06:31.480 And NATO exploding means we wander into the third world war
00:06:37.920 because we can't stop giving Ukraine arms
00:06:41.860 to continue this fight.
00:06:43.720 We need to negotiate peace
00:06:45.780 because I tell you what,
00:06:48.560 right or wrong,
00:06:49.980 it's a lot more wrong to have a nuclear war
00:06:53.460 over this issue.
00:06:55.220 We've got to stop this fighting.
00:06:56.720 It is just too volatile.
00:06:59.880 So, you know, I can't overemphasize that enough.
00:07:04.160 And it's just common sense.
00:07:08.320 But that's,
00:07:09.140 that is the conundrum right now
00:07:14.380 facing the world and facing NATO.
00:07:16.460 So NATO is either going to implode
00:07:17.980 or it's going to explode.
00:07:19.980 But it's got to do something
00:07:21.720 to avoid a catastrophe.
00:07:25.140 And that's exactly what's going to happen.
00:07:27.600 So probably said enough about that.
00:07:30.600 Want to move on to our next topic here.
00:07:32.960 Trudeau and interest rates.
00:07:34.260 This is a,
00:07:35.080 this is a very interesting
00:07:36.600 interview because of course Trudeau's,
00:07:41.040 Trudeau's overseas
00:07:42.100 hoping he doesn't have to talk about
00:07:44.700 domestic issues.
00:07:47.500 Right?
00:07:48.220 No.
00:07:48.740 He's hoping that the domestic issues
00:07:51.080 are just not,
00:07:51.920 not going to be
00:07:53.620 on anybody's plate.
00:07:58.580 But that's exactly what happens
00:08:00.600 because,
00:08:01.060 you know,
00:08:01.580 reporters are going to ask,
00:08:02.800 what is going on
00:08:04.220 with the interest rates?
00:08:05.660 And let's listen to what Trudeau says.
00:08:08.080 To start defaulting on mortgages
00:08:10.360 and other debts.
00:08:11.820 Look,
00:08:12.380 this is not the news
00:08:13.240 that any Canadian
00:08:14.000 wanted to receive this morning.
00:08:15.880 This is also a challenge
00:08:19.480 that I've had conversations
00:08:21.340 with fellow leaders
00:08:22.760 from here in Europe
00:08:23.840 and around the world
00:08:24.720 on the cost of living.
00:08:26.780 Don't you hate the fact
00:08:28.180 that Trudeau always talks
00:08:29.340 about challenges?
00:08:31.340 You know,
00:08:31.780 because there's a positive connotation
00:08:33.460 to a challenge.
00:08:34.760 You know,
00:08:35.220 it's something you relish taking on.
00:08:36.940 You relish a challenge.
00:08:38.940 But this is not a challenge.
00:08:41.240 This is called
00:08:42.040 economic disaster.
00:08:43.960 And it's not a challenge.
00:08:45.240 It's like calling
00:08:45.780 the Great Depression
00:08:46.620 a challenge for people.
00:08:48.100 It wasn't a challenge.
00:08:49.120 It was catastrophic.
00:08:50.980 It was not anything
00:08:52.340 you'd ever want to go through.
00:08:54.400 Because at the other end
00:08:55.840 was disaster.
00:08:56.900 And to say
00:09:00.080 that interest rates
00:09:00.800 were just a challenge
00:09:01.620 for Canadians
00:09:02.260 is to just minimize it
00:09:04.560 by a man
00:09:06.140 who has no clue
00:09:07.880 what the average Canadian
00:09:09.900 really is going through.
00:09:11.380 A real challenge
00:09:12.180 everywhere around the world
00:09:13.880 with record high inflation,
00:09:16.020 with interest rates
00:09:17.280 continuing to go up.
00:09:19.260 People around the world
00:09:20.460 are facing
00:09:21.280 significant challenges.
00:09:23.080 There he goes again.
00:09:24.240 We've stepped up
00:09:25.120 with targeted support
00:09:26.120 for people
00:09:26.520 who most need it
00:09:27.340 at this moment.
00:09:28.520 So last week
00:09:29.240 we delivered
00:09:29.780 the grocery rebate
00:09:31.460 to 11 million Canadians.
00:09:33.640 Canadians in provinces
00:09:35.280 where the federal
00:09:37.280 pricing backstop applies
00:09:39.220 will be receiving
00:09:39.860 their climate check
00:09:40.840 this week.
00:09:42.100 A climate check.
00:09:43.020 And next week
00:09:43.760 the Canada Child Benefit
00:09:45.360 is going to be increasing
00:09:46.860 with the increases
00:09:48.640 in the cost of living.
00:09:49.940 On top of the housing benefit
00:09:51.520 and other benefits
00:09:52.140 we're delivering,
00:09:53.060 we are very much focused
00:09:54.400 on supporting Canadians
00:09:55.700 even as we create
00:09:57.920 great jobs
00:09:58.600 and grow the economy.
00:09:59.760 We will continue
00:10:00.660 to be there for Canadians
00:10:01.760 through these difficult times
00:10:03.000 as we create
00:10:04.260 a brighter future
00:10:04.820 for everyone.
00:10:06.920 Now, do you buy that
00:10:08.000 for a minute?
00:10:09.120 Do you think
00:10:09.800 Justin Trudeau
00:10:10.360 is creating
00:10:10.700 a brighter future
00:10:11.720 for everybody,
00:10:12.780 all Canadians?
00:10:14.020 And clearly
00:10:14.540 we've come to the point
00:10:16.320 where most people
00:10:16.900 will never be able
00:10:17.700 to afford
00:10:18.180 to buy a house.
00:10:18.940 and the interest rates
00:10:22.520 are going up
00:10:23.180 every week
00:10:23.840 and Justin Trudeau
00:10:25.560 is oblivious to this.
00:10:26.660 He's clueless
00:10:27.300 because he thinks
00:10:28.540 a grocery rebate once,
00:10:30.680 a one-time grocery rebate check
00:10:32.600 is going to make
00:10:33.760 all the difference
00:10:34.660 or this climate check
00:10:39.000 after he takes away
00:10:42.840 all that money
00:10:43.480 in the carbon tax
00:10:44.400 and he gives back
00:10:46.000 some of it
00:10:46.740 to some people
00:10:47.920 but it's not helping anybody
00:10:50.300 and this is
00:10:51.360 this is why
00:10:52.320 this is
00:10:52.800 this is absolute
00:10:54.920 balderdash.
00:10:57.120 You know,
00:10:57.360 this is
00:10:57.640 this is
00:10:58.600 absolute nonsense
00:10:59.960 and
00:11:01.860 thank God
00:11:05.580 we have
00:11:06.120 premiers
00:11:06.580 like Daniel Smith
00:11:08.320 who are standing up
00:11:10.580 to Justin Trudeau
00:11:11.620 and I want you
00:11:13.860 to see this.
00:11:16.260 I'm going to the
00:11:17.360 Council of the Federation
00:11:18.340 this week
00:11:19.000 because I can tell you
00:11:19.940 the thing that has
00:11:20.600 surprised me the most
00:11:21.460 is it doesn't matter
00:11:22.340 what political stripe
00:11:23.380 the premiers have
00:11:24.280 every single one of them
00:11:25.600 is frustrated
00:11:26.160 with federal interference
00:11:27.380 into their business.
00:11:29.100 I would like
00:11:29.600 for the federal government
00:11:30.620 to focus on
00:11:31.380 their areas of jurisdiction
00:11:32.460 and do it well.
00:11:33.620 How about we
00:11:34.200 see them address
00:11:35.500 the issue of
00:11:36.160 out-of-control
00:11:37.080 monetary policy
00:11:38.140 so that we don't have
00:11:38.900 an inflation crisis
00:11:39.740 any longer.
00:11:40.460 How about they
00:11:41.040 meet their commitments
00:11:41.960 internationally
00:11:42.600 on defense spending
00:11:43.460 so that we can
00:11:44.060 continue to be part
00:11:44.940 of a full partner
00:11:47.100 in the NATO alliance.
00:11:48.120 How about they
00:11:48.880 manage our
00:11:49.840 passport offices
00:11:51.320 and our airports
00:11:52.260 and our port system
00:11:53.320 and how about they
00:11:54.440 support indigenous health
00:11:55.680 so that we're dealing
00:11:57.000 with the opioid crisis.
00:11:58.200 They've got lots
00:11:58.960 on their plate
00:11:59.700 in their areas
00:12:00.960 of jurisdiction.
00:12:01.880 They should stop
00:12:02.380 trying to interfere
00:12:03.060 in ours
00:12:03.560 and they should start
00:12:04.460 doing their job
00:12:05.120 is my view
00:12:05.580 and I think all the
00:12:06.220 other premiers feel
00:12:06.880 the same.
00:12:07.420 So I've pushed back
00:12:08.580 I've seen Saskatchewan
00:12:09.560 push back
00:12:10.100 and I think you'll see
00:12:11.000 increasingly
00:12:11.520 the other provinces
00:12:12.240 will push back as well.
00:12:13.160 Well I'll tell you
00:12:13.680 what I noticed
00:12:14.200 when the prime minister
00:12:14.940 did his communicate
00:12:15.820 is he didn't push
00:12:17.540 any of those three issues
00:12:18.880 and which says to me
00:12:20.160 that they are open-minded
00:12:21.260 and they have heard
00:12:22.360 the message loud and clear
00:12:23.320 that an emissions cap
00:12:25.540 that is aggressive
00:12:26.260 is a production cap
00:12:27.360 and it's a violation
00:12:28.080 of the constitution.
00:12:29.320 The same for net zero
00:12:30.540 electricity regs
00:12:31.320 that are too aggressive.
00:12:33.480 Electricity is also
00:12:34.420 in our constitutional
00:12:35.620 jurisdiction.
00:12:36.180 So here's my view.
00:12:38.380 You know
00:12:38.600 and Daniel Smith
00:12:40.220 is fortunately
00:12:40.720 standing up
00:12:41.460 against Trudeau's
00:12:43.160 radical extremist
00:12:44.880 climate change agenda
00:12:46.300 and she's saying
00:12:47.800 we're not going to do this
00:12:48.680 by 2035.
00:12:49.400 This is absolutely ridiculous.
00:12:51.120 But even to say
00:12:52.320 that it's going to happen
00:12:52.920 by 2050
00:12:53.440 is obscenely optimistic
00:12:55.860 and completely unnecessary
00:12:58.480 because we are not going
00:13:00.600 to be a world
00:13:01.920 or a country
00:13:02.760 run on green energy
00:13:04.340 by that time either.
00:13:06.480 Daniel Smith
00:13:07.080 is clearly buying
00:13:08.340 some time here
00:13:09.180 but it's vital
00:13:10.760 that we get over this
00:13:12.980 because God only knows
00:13:14.580 how the mindset
00:13:16.160 is going to be
00:13:16.840 in 2035.
00:13:19.360 People are going to realize
00:13:20.760 by that point
00:13:21.360 there is no climate change
00:13:22.920 catastrophe crisis
00:13:24.640 that's going to cause
00:13:26.460 the end of the world.
00:13:28.380 So 2050
00:13:29.040 won't be viable either.
00:13:31.300 And I think this is where
00:13:32.480 she's going with this.
00:13:34.340 I think she's saying
00:13:35.340 look if we can buy
00:13:36.360 some time now
00:13:38.000 another 12 years
00:13:39.140 we're not going to be
00:13:42.560 looking at 2050 either
00:13:44.080 because by that time
00:13:45.680 by 2035
00:13:46.620 people are going to realize
00:13:48.860 that it's not even
00:13:50.480 essential that we do so.
00:13:52.660 That it's not viable
00:13:54.060 not possible
00:13:55.360 and not something
00:13:58.000 the candidate needs to do.
00:14:00.120 So I think it's wise.
00:14:01.580 She knows right now
00:14:02.620 if you just say
00:14:03.420 it's never going to happen
00:14:04.440 they're going to just call her
00:14:05.420 a climate change denier
00:14:06.660 and there's nothing worse
00:14:08.600 you can be called today
00:14:09.640 except perhaps a racist
00:14:11.860 or something like that.
00:14:13.840 And that is
00:14:14.580 that is the one thing
00:14:16.900 she doesn't want
00:14:17.580 to get caught up on
00:14:18.560 is being called
00:14:20.080 a climate change.
00:14:20.660 So I think that's what
00:14:21.460 she's doing here
00:14:22.500 and it's probably
00:14:23.000 a very wise strategy.
00:14:24.100 is that if we are able
00:14:27.640 to demonstrate
00:14:28.380 in good faith
00:14:29.320 that we are working
00:14:30.080 towards those targets
00:14:30.880 in a meaningful way
00:14:31.660 I think the courts
00:14:32.300 will side with us.
00:14:33.020 I hope it doesn't go
00:14:33.620 to the courts
00:14:34.140 but if it does
00:14:35.620 then I think we're
00:14:36.320 going to win that one.
00:14:37.260 I do always try to find
00:14:38.260 areas of common ground
00:14:39.200 and I must tell you
00:14:40.100 that the other Trudeau
00:14:41.680 Pierre Trudeau
00:14:42.420 he just wanted to steal
00:14:44.140 our wealth
00:14:44.480 he didn't want to
00:14:45.100 extinguish it
00:14:45.740 and so that's the reason
00:14:47.320 why I can understand
00:14:48.180 why people lack trust.
00:14:49.820 The way that this
00:14:50.480 current Prime Minister
00:14:51.220 has acted towards
00:14:52.040 our province
00:14:52.560 over the last number
00:14:53.320 of years
00:14:53.620 has not been constructed
00:14:54.640 and so I wanted
00:14:56.000 to demonstrate
00:14:56.780 by meeting him partway
00:14:58.120 saying we'll align
00:14:59.200 with a 2050 target
00:15:00.580 but he's got to
00:15:01.380 meet us partway as well
00:15:02.320 and do it in a way
00:15:02.940 that's reasonable
00:15:03.880 and that works
00:15:04.760 for our economy
00:15:05.320 and that's why
00:15:05.860 we've formed
00:15:06.480 a working group.
00:15:07.520 As I've said
00:15:08.140 we're going to work
00:15:09.000 in good faith
00:15:09.540 to try to get there
00:15:10.240 and if we don't
00:15:11.180 then we're just
00:15:12.220 not going to do anything
00:15:13.120 that is going to
00:15:13.900 damage our economy
00:15:14.760 or give any indication
00:15:16.360 that our oil
00:15:16.900 and natural gas sector
00:15:17.860 is going to be phased out.
00:15:18.900 We're working on
00:15:19.340 reducing emissions
00:15:20.020 not reducing jobs
00:15:21.280 in the energy sector
00:15:21.980 so I think this would lay out.
00:15:23.320 We will assert
00:15:23.960 that we are going
00:15:25.240 to meet our targets
00:15:26.880 under our emissions reduction
00:15:28.180 and energy development plan
00:15:29.660 and they can take us
00:15:30.940 to court if they want
00:15:31.700 but I think
00:15:32.300 that what will happen
00:15:33.020 is we will demonstrate
00:15:33.760 to the court
00:15:34.340 that what we're doing
00:15:34.900 is reasonable
00:15:35.460 it's in alignment
00:15:36.040 with federal policy
00:15:36.900 it's in our areas
00:15:37.700 of constitutional jurisdiction
00:15:38.980 and I don't think
00:15:39.600 they'll have a light
00:15:39.980 to stand on.
00:15:40.500 So clearly
00:15:43.380 you know
00:15:44.600 this is
00:15:45.000 this is very smart
00:15:48.800 policy here
00:15:49.600 and
00:15:50.800 there's a bit
00:15:51.980 of a game going on
00:15:52.980 but when you're dealing
00:15:53.920 with Justin Trudeau
00:15:54.880 and the liberals
00:15:55.460 you sometimes have
00:15:56.960 to play their game
00:15:57.720 and I think
00:15:58.460 that's what she's doing
00:15:59.160 here
00:15:59.460 knowing full well
00:16:00.720 that the climate crisis
00:16:02.800 is going to blow over
00:16:04.160 it really is
00:16:05.820 people
00:16:06.220 and
00:16:06.920 I don't even believe
00:16:08.180 the average Canadian
00:16:09.300 is really that obsessed
00:16:11.560 with the climate change
00:16:13.740 crisis
00:16:14.800 do they go to bed
00:16:16.500 at night
00:16:16.780 worrying about
00:16:17.460 global warming
00:16:18.360 no
00:16:18.720 or the fact
00:16:20.440 that there's more
00:16:21.320 forest fires
00:16:22.060 and it's supposedly
00:16:22.820 as a result
00:16:23.680 of climate change
00:16:24.660 no they don't
00:16:25.380 they're concerned
00:16:26.600 about forest fires
00:16:27.520 but people
00:16:29.100 are no longer
00:16:29.780 convinced
00:16:30.440 that every ill
00:16:31.940 every environmental
00:16:33.820 ill
00:16:34.360 is directly
00:16:35.900 a result
00:16:38.540 of climate change
00:16:40.600 it's just not
00:16:41.200 going over anymore
00:16:42.320 so I think
00:16:43.720 that's
00:16:44.140 you know
00:16:44.960 I think
00:16:45.780 that's
00:16:46.060 extremely important
00:16:47.600 to
00:16:48.180 recognize that
00:16:50.600 and
00:16:51.880 you know
00:16:53.460 that is
00:16:54.080 that is the reality
00:16:55.500 we face here
00:16:56.360 and I want to deal
00:16:57.260 with a couple
00:16:58.400 of other
00:16:58.960 other issues
00:17:02.120 here before
00:17:02.620 we leave you today
00:17:03.520 and this is
00:17:05.520 very
00:17:05.900 very
00:17:06.360 concerning
00:17:07.900 disconcerting
00:17:09.840 and very
00:17:10.380 concerning
00:17:11.000 is that
00:17:12.100 the
00:17:12.460 Manitoba
00:17:14.320 court
00:17:14.740 ruled
00:17:15.940 that
00:17:18.060 it was
00:17:21.780 somehow
00:17:22.980 okay
00:17:24.280 to lock
00:17:25.780 down churches
00:17:26.480 during the
00:17:27.300 pandemic
00:17:27.980 that was reasonable
00:17:28.860 let me tell you
00:17:30.440 that's not reasonable
00:17:31.340 and I
00:17:32.480 anybody
00:17:33.120 with half a
00:17:33.920 brain
00:17:34.280 can tell you
00:17:34.900 why
00:17:35.300 it wasn't
00:17:35.880 reasonable
00:17:36.300 because
00:17:36.800 we
00:17:37.460 we still
00:17:38.320 had the
00:17:38.720 liquor stores
00:17:39.360 open
00:17:39.720 we had
00:17:40.320 the pot
00:17:40.820 stores
00:17:41.160 open
00:17:41.520 we had
00:17:41.940 strip clubs
00:17:42.620 open
00:17:42.960 and
00:17:44.260 it's like
00:17:46.660 nobody
00:17:47.020 is going to be
00:17:48.740 in a position
00:17:49.720 to pass on
00:17:50.960 the pandemic
00:17:52.160 in those
00:17:53.600 circumstances
00:17:54.220 that they
00:17:55.480 couldn't have
00:17:55.860 tried another
00:17:56.460 solution for the
00:17:57.280 churches in this
00:17:57.880 country
00:17:58.160 well clearly
00:17:59.200 Justin Trudeau
00:18:00.060 wasn't interested
00:18:00.500 in doing it
00:18:00.840 because the
00:18:01.100 churches are
00:18:01.500 not important
00:18:02.080 to him
00:18:02.520 faith
00:18:04.840 is not
00:18:06.080 an issue
00:18:06.580 for Justin
00:18:07.140 Trudeau
00:18:07.620 unless he's
00:18:08.580 grandstanding
00:18:09.320 and having
00:18:10.420 an audience
00:18:11.020 with the
00:18:11.420 Pope
00:18:11.680 he's not
00:18:12.540 interested
00:18:12.900 in faith
00:18:13.500 he really
00:18:14.780 isn't
00:18:15.180 so that
00:18:15.640 was
00:18:16.020 you know
00:18:17.080 a
00:18:17.300 a complete
00:18:19.080 disaster
00:18:22.860 this decision
00:18:23.560 here
00:18:23.880 but
00:18:24.680 we're going
00:18:26.060 to see
00:18:26.240 what happens
00:18:26.780 we're going
00:18:28.000 to see
00:18:28.220 what happens
00:18:28.680 with this
00:18:29.120 and I
00:18:30.040 want to
00:18:30.300 get to
00:18:30.980 our last
00:18:31.580 last issue
00:18:33.380 of the day
00:18:33.760 here
00:18:34.040 and this
00:18:35.020 continues
00:18:35.540 to resonate
00:18:36.220 with people
00:18:36.900 and
00:18:38.560 it's
00:18:40.340 about
00:18:40.920 a school
00:18:42.100 in Saskatchewan
00:18:43.480 and Swift
00:18:44.240 Current
00:18:44.540 that decided
00:18:46.460 and some
00:18:47.340 of the kids
00:18:47.660 decided
00:18:48.140 to have
00:18:48.720 a petition
00:18:49.760 saying that
00:18:50.640 they're proud
00:18:51.160 to be
00:18:51.460 straight
00:18:51.780 now
00:18:53.780 why is it
00:18:54.600 not okay
00:18:55.220 to say
00:18:55.640 that
00:18:55.800 and apparently
00:18:56.200 the RCMP
00:18:57.000 you know
00:18:58.260 the RCMP
00:19:01.040 literally
00:19:01.580 came to
00:19:02.180 the school
00:19:02.660 and grilled
00:19:04.120 the students
00:19:04.920 gave them
00:19:05.380 the third
00:19:05.720 degree
00:19:06.160 and threatened
00:19:07.320 them with
00:19:07.940 potentially
00:19:09.740 violating
00:19:10.420 hate crimes
00:19:11.840 legislation
00:19:13.060 by doing
00:19:13.620 this
00:19:13.900 now this
00:19:14.340 is all
00:19:14.880 nonsense
00:19:15.580 this is
00:19:16.660 all nonsense
00:19:17.420 and this
00:19:17.940 has got to
00:19:18.380 stop
00:19:18.640 because this
00:19:19.200 week
00:19:19.520 you know
00:19:20.260 I want to
00:19:20.680 highlight the
00:19:21.220 fact that
00:19:21.680 both
00:19:22.120 conservative
00:19:23.660 leader
00:19:24.040 Pierre Polyev
00:19:24.860 and Alberta
00:19:25.660 Premier Daniel
00:19:26.280 Smith
00:19:26.540 were photographed
00:19:27.160 with some
00:19:27.800 guy
00:19:28.140 wearing a
00:19:29.420 t-shirt
00:19:29.800 that said
00:19:30.240 straight pride
00:19:30.940 now I
00:19:33.060 don't walk
00:19:33.460 around with
00:19:33.960 t-shirts
00:19:34.340 advertising
00:19:35.020 all kinds
00:19:35.520 of things
00:19:35.920 but I
00:19:37.240 think you
00:19:37.460 have a
00:19:37.600 right to
00:19:37.880 do that
00:19:38.340 and I
00:19:39.660 don't know
00:19:39.960 why it's
00:19:40.720 inadmissible
00:19:41.560 somehow
00:19:43.060 politically
00:19:43.680 incorrect
00:19:44.380 and somehow
00:19:45.540 morally wrong
00:19:46.660 to say you
00:19:47.640 have just as
00:19:48.040 much pride
00:19:48.860 to be
00:19:49.700 straight
00:19:50.120 why is
00:19:51.260 why are we
00:19:51.880 trumping up
00:19:52.780 the
00:19:54.380 LGBTQ
00:19:54.960 pride
00:19:56.100 but not
00:19:57.540 allowing
00:19:58.000 other people
00:19:59.060 the vast
00:20:00.220 majority of
00:20:00.840 the population
00:20:01.360 say they're
00:20:01.760 proud too
00:20:02.280 because the
00:20:03.600 whole thing
00:20:03.880 is ridiculous
00:20:04.500 because
00:20:05.840 the whole
00:20:07.660 gay pride
00:20:08.420 month or
00:20:09.380 season
00:20:09.920 is a
00:20:12.000 complete
00:20:12.320 assault
00:20:12.900 on everybody
00:20:13.940 it's
00:20:14.340 it's an
00:20:14.980 ideology
00:20:15.780 being forced
00:20:17.140 upon us
00:20:17.980 and the
00:20:18.520 politicians
00:20:19.080 of all
00:20:20.020 parties
00:20:20.600 in this
00:20:21.380 country
00:20:21.660 with the
00:20:21.900 exception
00:20:22.240 of the
00:20:23.100 People's
00:20:23.420 Party
00:20:23.580 Canada
00:20:23.940 which has
00:20:24.300 no
00:20:24.540 representation
00:20:25.080 in the
00:20:25.560 House of
00:20:25.840 Commons
00:20:26.160 is the
00:20:27.220 only party
00:20:27.820 to say
00:20:28.200 this is
00:20:28.620 nonsense
00:20:29.580 we should
00:20:31.740 treat all
00:20:32.480 Canadians
00:20:33.020 as equal
00:20:34.040 under the
00:20:34.580 law
00:20:34.980 we stop
00:20:36.380 segmenting
00:20:37.260 the
00:20:37.400 population
00:20:37.840 stop
00:20:40.100 dividing
00:20:40.980 us
00:20:41.480 stop
00:20:42.500 using
00:20:42.880 identity
00:20:43.500 politics
00:20:44.160 to play
00:20:44.660 one group
00:20:45.220 against the
00:20:45.760 other
00:20:46.000 so the
00:20:46.740 liberals
00:20:47.020 come out
00:20:47.420 ahead
00:20:47.780 we can
00:20:50.120 all be
00:20:50.540 proud to
00:20:51.120 be
00:20:51.240 Canadian
00:20:51.580 let's
00:20:51.840 leave it
00:20:52.100 at that
00:20:52.800 stop
00:20:53.680 flying
00:20:54.280 divisive
00:20:54.800 flags
00:20:55.420 that are
00:20:57.160 just
00:20:57.620 really
00:20:59.160 showing
00:20:59.840 hatred
00:21:00.280 for people
00:21:01.040 who disagree
00:21:02.100 with you
00:21:02.560 and this
00:21:04.200 really
00:21:05.120 you know
00:21:05.940 should have
00:21:06.720 this should
00:21:07.680 have been
00:21:08.160 where this
00:21:10.240 this story
00:21:10.900 went
00:21:11.140 and
00:21:11.640 I'm
00:21:13.540 very
00:21:13.940 disappointed
00:21:14.500 and
00:21:14.700 Paul
00:21:15.020 and
00:21:15.560 Daniel
00:21:16.440 Smith
00:21:16.740 didn't
00:21:17.340 have
00:21:17.600 the
00:21:17.780 guts
00:21:18.020 to
00:21:18.180 say
00:21:18.340 look
00:21:18.620 there's
00:21:19.560 nothing
00:21:19.720 wrong
00:21:19.940 with
00:21:20.080 this
00:21:20.240 individual
00:21:20.700 being
00:21:21.500 proud
00:21:21.820 to be
00:21:22.080 straight
00:21:22.360 and
00:21:22.520 I
00:21:22.980 don't
00:21:23.120 have
00:21:23.240 a
00:21:23.340 problem
00:21:23.620 with
00:21:23.820 that
00:21:24.040 because
00:21:24.820 I
00:21:24.980 think
00:21:25.120 all
00:21:25.300 Canadians
00:21:25.680 are
00:21:25.840 equal
00:21:26.040 under
00:21:26.220 the
00:21:26.380 law
00:21:26.620 and
00:21:27.100 I
00:21:27.220 think
00:21:27.360 that
00:21:27.620 should
00:21:27.820 be
00:21:27.940 the
00:21:28.120 issue
00:21:28.440 and
00:21:29.260 stop
00:21:29.600 running
00:21:30.280 stop
00:21:31.360 running
00:21:31.740 and
00:21:31.900 hiding
00:21:32.240 because
00:21:33.460 you know
00:21:34.080 that's
00:21:34.340 exactly
00:21:34.820 what
00:21:35.320 they are
00:21:35.760 doing
00:21:36.060 here
00:21:36.440 now
00:21:40.320 we're
00:21:40.440 getting
00:21:40.580 to the
00:21:40.880 end
00:21:41.040 of
00:21:41.140 the
00:21:41.240 broadcast
00:21:41.620 and
00:21:43.100 I
00:21:43.220 want
00:21:43.380 to
00:21:43.480 say
00:21:43.660 support
00:21:44.080 independent
00:21:44.660 journalism
00:21:45.180 this
00:21:46.960 station
00:21:47.380 has
00:21:47.580 now
00:21:47.780 been
00:21:47.940 monetized
00:21:48.760 I'm
00:21:49.720 going
00:21:49.800 to
00:21:49.840 be
00:21:49.940 doing
00:21:50.120 more
00:21:50.520 not
00:21:50.760 less
00:21:51.340 coverage
00:21:52.560 and
00:21:54.240 even
00:21:54.500 though
00:21:54.820 you
00:21:55.120 know
00:21:55.200 we're
00:21:55.400 in
00:21:55.500 the
00:21:55.600 midst
00:21:55.880 of
00:21:58.380 the
00:21:58.520 summer
00:21:58.780 there's
00:21:59.900 always
00:22:00.320 something
00:22:00.960 exciting
00:22:01.720 happening
00:22:02.660 and
00:22:04.040 we need
00:22:04.420 to
00:22:04.580 continue
00:22:04.920 to
00:22:05.100 report
00:22:05.440 that
00:22:05.720 so
00:22:06.980 I
00:22:07.120 know
00:22:07.280 it's
00:22:07.480 a
00:22:07.620 pain
00:22:08.500 but
00:22:08.780 please
00:22:09.300 ring
00:22:10.020 that
00:22:10.220 bell
00:22:10.520 subscribe
00:22:11.520 to
00:22:11.840 the
00:22:11.980 station
00:22:12.340 it
00:22:12.800 means
00:22:13.060 a
00:22:13.240 lot
00:22:13.460 to
00:22:13.640 a
00:22:13.780 small
00:22:14.060 station
00:22:14.460 like
00:22:14.740 this
00:22:15.120 it
00:22:16.800 means
00:22:17.020 a
00:22:17.200 lot
00:22:17.440 because
00:22:18.400 we
00:22:18.640 need
00:22:18.820 to
00:22:18.940 build
00:22:19.140 those
00:22:19.340 numbers
00:22:19.720 and
00:22:20.760 we
00:22:20.880 need
00:22:21.200 to
00:22:21.740 indicate
00:22:22.160 that
00:22:22.520 you
00:22:22.800 think
00:22:23.020 this
00:22:23.200 is
00:22:23.320 important
00:22:23.740 you
00:22:24.940 think
00:22:25.280 this
00:22:26.140 is
00:22:26.380 information
00:22:27.340 you
00:22:27.560 need
00:22:27.740 to
00:22:27.860 know
00:22:28.100 we
00:22:29.780 deal
00:22:30.040 with
00:22:30.180 a
00:22:30.300 lot
00:22:30.480 of
00:22:30.600 different
00:22:30.820 issues
00:22:31.100 I'm
00:22:31.400 always
00:22:31.900 going
00:22:32.200 to
00:22:32.400 be
00:22:32.800 frank
00:22:33.560 and
00:22:34.560 as
00:22:34.740 courageous
00:22:35.120 as
00:22:35.400 I
00:22:35.540 can
00:22:35.780 be
00:22:35.940 in
00:22:36.060 addressing
00:22:36.400 these
00:22:36.700 issues
00:22:37.060 because
00:22:37.700 politicians
00:22:40.340 in this
00:22:41.240 day and
00:22:41.580 age
00:22:41.820 are
00:22:42.000 largely
00:22:42.540 craven
00:22:43.620 cowards
00:22:45.340 I know
00:22:46.620 it's a bit
00:22:46.940 of
00:22:47.040 but they
00:22:49.320 are
00:22:49.600 they are
00:22:51.100 afraid
00:22:51.660 to say
00:22:52.620 anything
00:22:53.440 that is
00:22:54.120 going to
00:22:54.520 offend
00:22:54.960 anybody
00:22:56.020 except
00:22:56.920 those
00:22:57.640 who don't
00:22:58.700 complain
00:22:59.180 and it's
00:23:00.280 people like
00:23:00.860 you
00:23:01.160 who don't
00:23:02.260 complain
00:23:02.700 enough
00:23:03.580 they
00:23:04.800 can
00:23:05.000 tread
00:23:05.400 on
00:23:06.300 your
00:23:06.460 rights
00:23:06.880 they
00:23:08.120 can
00:23:08.260 tell
00:23:08.500 you
00:23:08.660 that
00:23:08.780 your
00:23:08.980 opinions
00:23:09.380 don't
00:23:09.660 matter
00:23:09.980 and
00:23:11.620 you
00:23:11.720 probably
00:23:12.080 take
00:23:12.440 it
00:23:12.860 but
00:23:15.860 it's
00:23:16.060 time
00:23:16.360 to
00:23:16.540 fight
00:23:16.780 back
00:23:17.120 it's
00:23:17.300 time
00:23:17.660 to
00:23:18.180 resolve
00:23:19.100 to
00:23:19.540 resist
00:23:20.120 and
00:23:20.960 that's
00:23:21.440 what
00:23:21.920 we
00:23:22.060 need
00:23:22.240 to
00:23:22.360 do
00:23:22.500 in
00:23:22.620 this
00:23:22.760 country
00:23:23.040 and
00:23:23.220 that's
00:23:23.380 what
00:23:23.460 we're
00:23:23.580 going
00:23:23.660 to
00:23:23.760 continue

00:23:24.900 so
