00:00:01.000 Welcome back to another episode of Stand on Guard.
00:00:04.580 I'm your host, David Creighton.
00:00:06.340 You're watching the Creighton's Right channel.
00:00:09.040 And thanks for joining us again today on this weekend.
00:00:12.600 Guess what's coming up on Monday.
00:00:14.840 It's an important vote on the carbon tax.
00:00:17.720 And I'll be back in a few moments to try to explain what's actually going on here.
00:00:25.540 So we are in a very precarious position in this country.
00:00:30.000 We need political change.
00:00:32.120 But we also need to resolve to resist.
00:00:45.460 Before I go any further, please like this station, like this program, ring the bell, subscribe.
00:00:52.280 But most of all, if you can like things right now, we can beat that YouTube algorithm.
00:00:59.100 Which you're always trying to beat.
00:01:02.260 Because it keeps you constrained sometimes.
00:01:05.020 By the way, I want to thank everybody.
00:01:07.180 We have hit the 10,000 subscriber mark last night.
00:01:12.640 And it's certainly something to celebrate.
00:01:15.600 Thank you so much for your support in every way.
00:01:19.140 And we started off not knowing whether we could make this station viable.
00:01:23.740 But I always knew we could, I think.
00:01:26.000 And I just want to thank so many people who have come forward and who are always there to complement the station and what we're doing.
00:01:35.120 And we're going to continue to do that.
00:01:36.940 We've got a lot of material to go through today.
00:01:38.840 I think this is important because, as you know, there's going to be a vote on extending or actually axing the carbon tax.
00:01:48.780 You know, Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, initiated what he called a pause.
00:01:54.240 A three-year pause, but only on home heating oil, which largely affects the Maritimes, Atlantic Canada, 95%.
00:02:05.200 And it was really put in place to appease all of those liberal MPs from that part of the country who are afraid of losing their seats because their constituents are saying,
00:02:15.660 we can't survive anymore with the carbon tax, eating so much of our paychecks away.
00:02:21.880 So let's watch what Conservative leader Pierre Paliyev is doing here.
00:02:29.600 And I think this is very significant.
00:02:31.120 The Prime Minister paused the pain of the carbon tax for only some people.
00:02:39.100 The Liberal Rural Affairs Minister said, well, other people should have elected Liberal MPs if they wanted to be able to afford heating their home or feeding their kids.
00:02:47.900 The Atlantic Caucus was vocal with what they've heard from their constituents.
00:02:52.340 And perhaps they need to elect more Liberals on the prairies so that we can have that conversation as well.
00:02:57.120 The Prime Minister has not denounced that viewpoint.
00:02:59.120 In fact, he's doubling down on punishing people elsewhere.
00:03:03.620 But Liberal MPs in Sudbury, Thunder Bay, North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie, they have starving constituents who are worried about the heat going out as well.
00:03:12.740 Will they have a free vote on my motion to keep the heat on and take the tax off for everyone this Monday?
00:03:21.000 Okay, so there will be a vote on Monday.
00:03:25.120 It's not clear at all whether it's going to be free for the Liberals.
00:03:30.860 It's going to be, we know that the Conservatives and the NDP are going to be supporting the axe, the tax on this.
00:03:41.020 Which we were very surprised the NDP moved on this.
00:03:43.980 No idea what the block position is.
00:03:46.820 They're usually very pro-carbon tax because they honestly seem to believe it's having some impact on global gas emissions.
00:03:56.800 Although we know it really isn't.
00:03:59.300 People are still consuming the same amount of gasoline, still heating their homes because they have to.
00:04:04.880 It just costs more.
00:04:05.980 So it won't be a non-confidence vote.
00:04:10.460 It won't be a confidence motion or confidence vote.
00:04:14.640 Meaning it cannot turn out to be a non-confidence vote against the government.
00:04:22.040 So even though they lose the vote, if they lose the vote, if enough members side with the Conservatives,
00:04:29.240 it will not mean the end or the dissolution of this Parliament and this Liberal government.
00:04:35.980 Because it's not a confidence measure.
00:04:39.420 That doesn't mean it's not going to be one hell of an embarrassment for Justin Trudeau as things continue.
00:04:46.960 And as the NDP begins to become disentangled from this unholy alliance with the Liberals,
00:04:54.720 as they begin to look themselves in the mirror and say,
00:04:58.240 how can we continue to prop up this corrupt authoritarian regime if we expect to survive the next election?
00:05:05.980 So lots going on here.
00:05:07.320 Let's watch a little more of this.
00:05:08.480 Justin Trudeau now says that he will pause the Liberal carbon tax for some people in some places.
00:05:15.840 But people like you in Thunder Bay don't get the break this winter.
00:05:19.720 Instead, he'll quadruple the tax on your fuel and food.
00:05:23.540 I'm Pierre Polyev, Common Sense Conservative Leader, asking you to call your local Liberal MP
00:05:28.240 and ask them to vote for my motion this Monday to take the tax off so you can keep the heat on.
00:05:34.660 Brought to you by Pierre Polyev and the Common Sense Conservatives.
00:05:38.500 So let's see how that's doing.
00:05:40.520 Look at the polling results here.
00:05:43.360 This is in Thunder Bay.
00:05:44.900 It's the Liberal writing.
00:05:46.300 Conservatives are way ahead.
00:05:48.140 And that's no surprise because people are getting cold and the carbon tax is keeping them cold.
00:05:57.300 And there's no real solution except to axe attacks.
00:06:01.340 Putting a pause on things isn't going to help anybody in the long run.
00:06:05.800 The Right Honourable Prime Minister.
00:06:07.560 Mr. Speaker, as a government, we're phasing out the use of coal because it's dirty and bad for the environment.
00:06:13.700 We're now moving on phasing out home heating oil because it's dirtier, more expensive,
00:06:20.380 and is disproportionately relied upon by lower-income Canadians who don't have other choices.
00:06:26.600 Over half a million Ontarians, Mr. Speaker, heat their homes with home heating oil.
00:06:33.160 This program and this approach will not just give them a break,
00:06:36.740 but in working with the Government of Ontario,
00:06:39.020 will deliver heat pumps for Canadians right across the country.
00:06:43.140 I invite Saskatchewan to work with us as well.
00:06:45.960 We need to get Canadians off home heating oil. 0.99
00:06:48.320 That's what we're going to do.
00:06:50.960 All right.
00:06:53.440 So this apparently has something to do with weaning people off home heating oil.
00:07:02.080 You reduce the cost and people are going to be using less of it.
00:07:06.080 Of course, this is all nonsense.
00:07:08.700 And Trudeau is suggesting that it's not just about Atlantic Canada.
00:07:12.140 It's about all Canadians.
00:07:13.160 Now, technically, yes, home heating oil users in British Columbia or Manitoba,
00:07:20.600 yes, they can get the pause as well.
00:07:25.240 But it's really aimed at those liberal writings in Atlantic Canada.
00:07:30.140 And anybody with a bit of common sense or political sense can see how cynical a political ploy this is.
00:07:37.280 This is Justin Trudeau at his worst.
00:07:40.820 And of course, but it's all unraveling because he's trying to suggest he's just doing this so people in Atlantic Canada and across Canada can use less home heating oil.
00:07:50.880 Somehow there's a correlation there.
00:07:53.300 It's not clear to anybody who's thinking objectively what that correlation might be.
00:07:59.480 And it's clearly he's desperate.
00:08:02.500 He sees this whole thing unraveling.
00:08:04.560 He's created a domino effect here.
00:08:06.200 Once he puts a pause on home heating oil, people are saying, why don't you put a pause at least on natural gas and propane?
00:08:14.280 What's going on in the rest of the country where we use these resources much more frequently and readily than we do oil?
00:08:23.400 And he doesn't really have an answer for that.
00:08:25.320 So he's dancing.
00:08:26.960 And then, of course, people say, well, we're not going to give you the revenue from your carbon tax.
00:08:33.860 Or we want to axe the tax entirely because it's not making any sense.
00:08:39.320 If it's good to put it on pause for three years, why isn't it better to just cancel it?
00:08:45.280 Because obviously, if you're that concerned about greenhouse gas emissions and you think this is going to reduce Canada's carbon footprint because we're headed for some catastrophic climate change disaster in the next five to ten years,
00:09:00.420 obviously you don't believe that because you put a three-year pause on this.
00:09:03.980 So you really don't believe your own propaganda.
00:09:06.380 So it goes on.
00:09:07.200 But here's Trudeau originally announcing this three-year pause.
00:09:13.040 Today, we are announcing a three-year pause on the federal pollution price on heating oil.
00:09:21.220 Piloting in the Atlantic, we're working with provinces to install a free heat pump for people who are making at or below median household income.
00:09:33.440 All right.
00:09:37.540 What does that mean, free heat pump?
00:09:39.660 Of course, nothing is free.
00:09:42.460 Somebody's going to be paying for it.
00:09:44.000 It's the taxpayers pay for it regardless.
00:09:47.100 But OK, so the people who are going to get their free heat pump, they have to be living below the median income, which is basically the poverty line.
00:09:55.360 And people who are making less than the median income, which is about $30,000 a year per household, not individual per household, probably aren't homeowners and probably won't be looking for a heat pump because they don't have a home to use it in.
00:10:10.320 And they won't be using it in their rented apartment.
00:10:14.120 And the heat pumps are a bit of a cruel joke.
00:10:16.480 In fact, they're a massive cruel joke because they don't work in temperatures below but minus 15 degrees Celsius, zero degrees Fahrenheit.
00:10:25.540 They don't work.
00:10:28.300 And most of Canada has to endure temperatures well below the minus 15 degrees Celsius mark throughout much of the winter, certainly January and February.
00:10:40.940 Anyone who lives in Canada has lived anywhere except Vancouver knows that.
00:10:45.860 And it's quite obvious.
00:10:48.580 So what's going on with these heat pumps?
00:10:50.480 This is all part of this game.
00:10:52.080 Oh, you know, we're doing this so people will switch to heat pumps and then they'll freeze.
00:10:58.380 And they'll freeze either way.
00:10:59.840 That's really the strategy here.
00:11:01.060 Whether or not you shut off the power, tell people they can't use fossil fuels, or you tell them to use heat pumps, which, by the way, require electricity to operate so they're not carbon neutral.
00:11:13.100 Well, the object here for the liberal government is that people just freeze in the name of climate change fighting, in the name of fighting the good fight, in the name of ideology.
00:11:24.760 That's what this is all about.
00:11:26.080 So a lot of people are upset about this, and including Premier Scott Moe in Saskatchewan.
00:11:34.620 Now, Scott Moe is saying, hey, hey, hey, you guys aren't going to exempt people in Saskatchewan who use natural gas and propane.
00:11:45.080 No way.
00:11:47.180 And he's advertising that these heat pumps don't work, that there's no way this is going to work.
00:11:53.880 And it's just, as I said, it's a domino effect.
00:11:59.680 Once Trudeau admitted the thing is a whole political sham, it's a farce.
00:12:04.740 He really doesn't think that there is any catastrophe coming because of climate change, because he's allowed a three-year pause for purely political reasons.
00:12:15.420 People start to say, hey, what about me?
00:12:17.240 What about us?
00:12:17.840 What about my province?
00:12:18.760 What about this source of fuel?
00:12:20.940 Why isn't that affected?
00:12:22.480 So Premier Scott Moe is saying he's not going to be giving back the revenue for carbon tax to the federal government.
00:12:31.380 He's not going to be collecting it.
00:12:32.460 So that's a significant thing.
00:12:35.380 And what is the Premier of Alberta, Danielle Smith, saying?
00:12:39.920 We're going to have a federal government asserting that they have to have this power so everybody is treated equally.
00:12:45.940 And then they don't treat everyone equally.
00:12:47.520 It seems to me that that's something we should go back to the court and ask them whether or not they want to reconsider whether this is an appropriate use of the federal powers.
00:12:55.860 I would rather this have a political solution.
00:12:57.780 I would rather the federal government accept that if this is a painful tax going into winter for Atlantic Canadians, it's a painful tax going into the winter for everyone.
00:13:06.940 And just make sure that he does the right thing and takes the tax off for all types of home heating in every province.
00:13:12.020 So Alberta is upset, rightfully so, because they're being told they can't use any, they can't basically use fossil fuels and they don't have hydroelectricity because they don't have the same sources of water as Quebec and Ontario.
00:13:32.380 So that's not an option.
00:13:34.640 So Alberta is upset about this. 0.74
00:13:36.940 And of course they are.
00:13:39.120 It's more of the domino effect.
00:13:41.480 And here's more of that.
00:13:42.820 More domino effect.
00:13:44.340 Just push a little further westward in Canada to BC.
00:13:48.520 If in fact we are going to be the next pilot site.
00:13:51.580 The opposition BC United, skeptical about the federal government's turn here and the promise to give away free heat pumps, saying it's relief now the British Columbians need.
00:14:02.840 I have met with trades people, with seniors, with others that are really struggling right now just to get food on their table.
00:14:10.820 And they need relief today.
00:14:13.140 They don't need, you know, a $20,000 free heat pump.
00:14:16.220 Even Ontario, that requested the meeting about the pension plan, called on the federal government to remove the carbon tax on natural gas.
00:14:25.320 I'll just say this, you know, we're talking about national unity and the Canada pension plan.
00:14:30.620 This carbon tax is now becoming an issue of national unity.
00:14:33.880 Will there be any further exemptions to the carbon tax on home heating?
00:14:38.180 No.
00:14:38.400 So we have Ontario, largest province in Canada, also pushing back, saying it's time to just end this thing.
00:14:50.840 And it's not equitable.
00:14:52.460 Why is Trudeau favoring some people in Canada over others?
00:14:56.180 Why is he favoring some fossil fuels over other fossil fuels?
00:15:00.900 What's going on?
00:15:01.940 This is a sham.
00:15:02.640 And, of course, we get the response from the deputy prime minister there, Chrystia Freeland, who says, no, no, no, we're going to stick to it.
00:15:11.340 No more carve-outs, as Trudeau said.
00:15:13.440 But we're going to stick to this plan, even though the whole thing is imploding and the dominoes continue to fall.
00:15:20.580 And this is becoming a political disaster for the Trudeau government.
00:15:25.800 And I don't think Trudeau saw this coming because he's not a strategic thinker.
00:15:30.000 I don't think anybody, including Freeland, who's a little brighter than Trudeau, saw this coming.
00:15:36.760 And it's become an outright disaster.
00:15:40.000 So what's happening next?
00:15:43.140 Watch this.
00:15:44.860 The joint statement on the federal carbon tax.
00:15:48.260 We've got five premiers all saying that the carbon tax must end entirely.
00:15:56.380 Forget about your three-way pause.
00:15:58.260 Hmm.
00:16:00.040 Throw your three-year pause.
00:16:01.520 Forget about just putting it on hold for a while, like some liberal MPs from Atlanta, Canada have suggested.
00:16:07.520 It's not working.
00:16:09.640 It is not working.
00:16:10.520 I don't think it's going to answer the question as to whether or not his MPs would have a free vote, which begs the question whether his NDP MPs will get a free vote.
00:16:20.140 This Saskatchewan NDP has just voted to endorse my motion to give equal tax-free heat for all Canadians.
00:16:29.800 That is the position of the NDP in B.C., Manitoba, and Alberta as well.
00:16:34.780 Now the question is whether the NDP will vote against its cash-strapped constituents and in favor of the prime minister.
00:16:41.680 So can the PM tell us, is this vote part of the coalition agreement, or does the NDP have the freedom to vote for their constituents?
00:16:51.080 Well, as we'll hear in a minute, clearly there was no backroom deal going on here between the liberals and the NDP, like there usually is.
00:17:03.580 Because the NDP announced, and we'll hear in a minute, that they will be supporting the conservative motion.
00:17:10.320 Now, it's not clear at this time whether this is going to be a whipped or a free vote from any of the parties, but it's also clear that the liberal NDP alliance has completely collapsed over this issue.
00:17:26.360 And it's probably the sign of things to come, as the NDP realizes it cannot continue to survive as an independent party when it's so tied to the Trudeau government and its failures.
00:17:40.320 It's catastrophic failures, one after another.
00:17:44.060 So here's the NDP House Leader, Peter Julian, explaining what the NDP position is.
00:17:50.980 This is clearly not a confidence motion, but it is clearly an indication to the government that what they need to do is put in supports that help people right across the country.
00:18:01.320 The reality is we have people who are struggling to make ends meet, to heat their homes over the course of the winter.
00:18:07.320 And the panic action of last week really needs to be adjusted so that there is supports that go to people right across the country.
00:18:17.280 Aha. So we have Peter Julian essentially saying that they're going to break ranks with the liberals on this.
00:18:29.220 Now, this is very interesting because this doesn't happen very often.
00:18:32.340 Now, there's a lot of people out there saying that this is going to mean the defeat of the liberal government.
00:18:41.280 You know, you see it all the time. It's over. It's over. It's over for Justin Trudeau.
00:18:47.760 He could well survive this vote. Even if he loses the vote, it's not going to be a confidence measure, confidence vote, as I've said.
00:18:55.960 So it's not over in any event, what happens here.
00:19:01.600 It is highly indicative, though, of the fragile future of this liberal NDP coalition, this fragile coalition, this unofficial alliance between these two parties.
00:19:13.920 It's not exactly a coalition government, but it acts as one.
00:19:18.880 And so it gives Jagmat Singh the opportunity to pretend he's really not in a coalition government with the liberals.
00:19:25.860 He's really not propping them up at every turn.
00:19:29.120 He's really still an opposition leader who just happens to be in this sort of de facto alliance with the liberals and Justin Trudeau.
00:19:36.740 So this is going to have to end very, very soon.
00:19:39.860 This is not working for the NDP anymore.
00:19:42.040 So let's have a look at the seat countdown here.
00:19:46.040 Breakup.
00:19:47.740 Liberals have 158 seats.
00:19:49.480 The conservatives, 117.
00:19:51.080 The block, 32.
00:19:51.960 The NDP, 25.
00:19:53.540 OK, and the green, the independent and vacant, really irrelevant to the process here.
00:20:00.140 The liberals.
00:20:02.560 Let's stay on this for a second.
00:20:04.780 The liberals stay in power with 158 seats with the NDPs, 25.
00:20:10.220 That makes a majority in the House of Commons.
00:20:13.700 Now, the conservatives, 117 seats with the NDPs, 25, will not make a majority.
00:20:21.020 They need significant block support to make this work for them, to make this vote work against the government.
00:20:31.140 And if it does, it won't mean the end of the government.
00:20:36.900 But it's going to be hugely embarrassing for Justin Trudeau.
00:20:40.460 He's lost the vote in the House of Commons.
00:20:43.540 Now, how is the bloc going to vote on this?
00:20:45.260 As I said, they love carbon taxes.
00:20:48.000 They're environmental extremists.
00:20:49.820 But they also hate the fact that Quebec really wasn't included in this three-year pause.
00:20:57.200 They see themselves as being hard done by, as they always do, because they believe in an independent Quebec.
00:21:04.260 These are a bunch of blockhead separatists who just want to withdraw, get out of Canada.
00:21:09.060 And any time they feel Quebec is spurned by the federal government, they raise holy hell about it.
00:21:15.020 And watch what they might do on Monday.
00:21:17.180 They might say, hey, we're going to vote with the Conservatives because Justin Trudeau didn't include Quebec in his deal.
00:21:24.640 And Justin Trudeau has to include Quebec every time he makes a deal.
00:21:30.040 So that could very well be what happens here on Monday.
00:21:35.880 So these are exciting political times.
00:21:38.240 There's no question about that.
00:21:39.540 This is going to be an exciting political day, no matter what the numbers are.
00:21:43.580 But I will tell you right now, don't expect there to be a new government next week or election to be called next week or any time soon,
00:21:55.660 because the Liberals will weather this storm in the short term.
00:22:00.860 But they might not necessarily weather it for much longer as the NDP becomes disentangled from its coalition,
00:22:10.540 its informal coalition with the Liberals.
00:22:13.580 And this is all bad news for Justin Trudeau, because what he is losing is a grip not only on his cabinet,
00:22:22.100 which you could see there are very few cabinet ministers in the House last week and the week before that.
00:22:29.860 Very few cabinet ministers.
00:22:31.960 In fact, every time a question was leveled at a cabinet minister, about 90 percent of the time,
00:22:39.600 a parliamentary secretary got to their feet, his or her feet, and answered the question because the cabinet minister wasn't there.
00:22:48.160 Now, that's a good sign that Trudeau's popularity within the cabinet is softening,
00:22:55.160 and his control over the cabinet is weakening.
00:22:59.560 And I think as well, he's losing tremendous caucus support, not just in Atlanta, Canada,
00:23:05.120 but from these Liberal MPs who say, hey, this carbon tax is a hard sell.
00:23:09.820 It's not working.
00:23:11.060 It's not, we can't go into this next election waving the flag of carbon change, sorry, carbon tax,
00:23:18.960 because it's not effective.
00:23:21.680 It's not winnable.
00:23:23.360 It's not saleable.
00:23:24.920 And people are saying, forget it.
00:23:26.900 I'm tired of paying all this extra money.
00:23:28.760 And I don't want this tax to quadruple the 61 cents a liter on every liter of gas at the pump.
00:23:36.320 They don't want that.
00:23:38.400 And that's the future for Justin Trudeau.
00:23:41.480 He is going to be on the defensive for however long he remains in power before the next election.
00:23:48.780 And I submit he might lose a grip on his own party, on his own caucus, because he is losing their confidence.
00:23:59.540 So even if the House is unable to show their lack of confidence in Justin Trudeau,
00:24:05.360 I think his own caucus inevitably will do that because they have lost confidence in Justin Trudeau.
00:24:11.920 So he might be brought down.
00:24:13.320 That still means we've got to replace this liberal government because it is committed to policies,
00:24:20.060 Justin Trudeau being there or not, that are anathema to freedom and good government and economic prosperity in Canada.
00:24:29.700 And this Trudeau government or this liberal government without Trudeau has got to go and it's got to be replaced.
00:24:37.540 But I think we're seeing the beginning of the end with this carbon tax vote on Monday.
00:24:42.000 These are exciting times.
00:24:44.580 These are great times to be a political observer.
00:24:47.620 But they might just give you a hint of optimism after so many things to feel depressed, overwhelmed about because of the catastrophically bad policies of Justin Trudeau
00:25:02.740 and of how he has not led this country in the right direction for a long time. 0.99
00:25:07.660 And it's not just that he's not worth the cost, as the conservatives like to say, very inane talking point, stupid election slogan. 1.00
00:25:16.580 It's because he's destroying Canada. 1.00
00:25:20.580 He's destroying the country as you know it in many, many ways.
00:25:25.600 So I encourage you to watch on Monday.
00:25:28.240 We'll be back Monday to discuss the results of this vote.
00:25:32.740 And once again, I encourage you, please, if you haven't done so already and I asked you the big thing, like this station, like this broadcast, subscribe.
00:25:41.560 And please ring that bell, do whatever you can to make this program and this station a success, because I want to keep bringing you the news.
00:25:55.100 I want to keep bringing you the news that you're not here again, mainstream media with an analysis I don't think you always get in this context.
00:26:02.180 And I'm happy and I'm very proud to be able to do that.
00:26:05.900 So thank you so much for the support you've given so far.
00:26:09.420 We're going to keep on pushing for change in Canada.
00:26:13.600 And remember to resolve to resist.
00:26:17.260 Become a part of the Stand on Guard team.
00:26:21.120 Subscribe today.
00:26:23.100 Please support this station and what we're doing, because I know it's an important work.
00:26:30.160 And thank God we can still do this.
00:26:33.840 And we have to beat Trudeau's censorship.
00:26:36.640 That's one of the primary reasons I'm fighting on this station is to stop the censorship that Justin Trudeau is promulgating in this country.
00:26:45.640 He's done it with two bills and there's a third one on the way that's even more onerous and more dangerous than the last two.
00:26:53.020 And that's going to be the Online Safety Act, which will fail to define this information, but yet make this information an offense to be punished.
00:27:03.720 And it's going to wreak havoc against independent journalism and new media.
00:27:12.020 And for that matter, legacy media as well.
00:27:15.240 And they're not even aware of how bad this legislation is and how imminent it is.
00:27:22.260 So thanks for watching today.
00:27:24.400 I will be back again on Monday to discuss the results of the acts, the tax vote in the House of Commons, and to tell you what it means for you.
00:27:34.000 Thanks so much.
00:27:35.960 I'm David Creighton.
