Summary

In this episode of Stand On Guard, I discuss a new contract that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has signed with the Liberal Party of Canada, and the implications for the future of the party and the country. I also discuss Alex Jones and his new book, "The Devil Next Door" and the potential for the Liberals to use it in their campaign in 2020.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hi, welcome back to another episode of Stand on Guard. I am your host, David Creighton. Welcome to Saturday, April the 6th. We're making it through this month, but when I come back, I'm going to address a number of issues, including something about a contract that Justin Trudeau signed.
00:00:19.800 So, we are in a very precarious position in this country. We need political change, but we also need to resolve to resist.
00:00:30.420 Yes, as my dear cat Sasha always used to like to demonstrate, please ring the bell, like this program, support us if you can, subscribe, maybe you have to resubscribe.
00:00:53.760 Rob, I hate to keep mentioning that, but it's happening all the time to stations like this. People are being unsubscribed because YouTube doesn't think they're real, thinks they're bots, or just doesn't want stations like this to thrive, I suppose.
00:01:08.320 Maybe that's got something to do with it. But a number of issues to talk about today, and I'm very excited about this show.
00:01:14.640 I wrote a Substack article yesterday, which I'll be talking about momentarily.
00:01:19.660 But I wanted to lead off the show with this great clip from Conservative Party of Canada leader, Pierre Paulio.
00:01:30.120 And this is quite good. So, I want you to watch this.
00:01:35.760 Trudeau's not a liberal. It might surprise you to hear me say that. He's not a liberal.
00:01:41.400 So, liberals used to believe in liberty, and conservatives believed in conserving it.
00:01:48.340 That was the common sense consensus we had in Canada.
00:01:50.900 Justin Trudeau does not believe in liberty. He believes in government control.
00:01:54.160 He wants to control your money. He wants to control your kids.
00:01:58.260 He wants to control the economy, control your speech, control your bank account.
00:02:04.060 He wants to control everything. That is illiberal.
00:02:08.340 It's the opposite of liberalism.
00:02:11.260 I don't want to run your life. I want to run your government.
00:02:15.720 And a government that does a few things well, rather than a lot of things poorly.
00:02:18.920 A government that minds its own business and lets people live their lives.
00:02:22.800 That is the traditional common sense consensus that liberals and conservatives believed in for a century and a half until Trudeau.
00:02:30.180 Yeah. So, that was the consensus.
00:02:37.980 Now, I want you to have a look at this.
00:02:39.360 This speech, this snippet of a speech, has developed a life of its own.
00:02:47.300 Well, because Glenda M put this up on X.
00:02:54.720 And guess who reposted it and commented with a comment?
00:02:59.000 Alex Jones.
00:03:01.580 Yeah, he can be a little controversial, but you know, he's 90% of the time he's right.
00:03:05.620 He was dead wrong, yeah, about Sandy Hook.
00:03:07.460 And he knows that he does not want his entire career to be judged on the basis of that one story.
00:03:15.620 He's been right about so many things.
00:03:18.580 And he has sent Glenda's post into the stratosphere by reposting.
00:03:23.900 Because Alex has huge following.
00:03:26.100 Yeah, huge following up there.
00:03:28.260 So, you know, I think that's great.
00:03:29.800 Glenda watches my show.
00:03:33.100 She's an avid viewer and she's a fan of this show.
00:03:35.920 So, Glenda, good job, good work.
00:03:40.020 Now, you know, there's been some folks, yeah, and political commentators, as they call themselves,
00:03:47.760 who have suggested that the liberals might use this against Pierre Polyev in the next election.
00:03:54.520 Because Alex Jones is, yes, he's controversial.
00:03:57.920 And people on the woke left just think he's like the Antichrist.
00:04:01.180 They can't stand him.
00:04:02.340 Well, maybe Antichrist is the wrong word because the woke left people don't believe in Jesus Christ and they don't support anything Jesus said.
00:04:09.580 So maybe that's the wrong word.
00:04:10.940 He is anathema to the woke left, Alex Jones.
00:04:13.960 So you think the Liberal Party might use this in their advertising against Polyev?
00:04:18.520 Well, of course they will, duh.
00:04:21.280 They'll use anything against Pierre Polyev that they think might stick even for a day.
00:04:27.160 So, yeah, they'll use this against.
00:04:28.480 But it's, it's, be fruitless.
00:04:30.700 It's a fruitless effort.
00:04:32.240 It really, really means nothing.
00:04:34.520 It really means nothing.
00:04:35.720 So, we're going to keep putting material like this from Pierre Polyev on the screen.
00:04:41.980 Because when he talks about a mind-your-own-business conservative government, I'm saying thumbs up to that.
00:04:48.680 Yeah, thumbs up to that.
00:04:50.080 I'm saying hooray.
00:04:51.500 I'm saying I support that because I want the government out of my life.
00:04:56.500 Stop taxing me to death.
00:04:58.360 Stop regulating me to death.
00:05:00.440 Stop telling me how children should be raised.
00:05:03.700 Stop telling me that it's easier to get medical assistance in dying than it is to get a cancer operation.
00:05:11.180 Stop telling me that Canada can't do.
00:05:16.600 Or that we're all about climate change and carbon taxes and pride seasons.
00:05:23.140 I want to hear more of that from Polyev.
00:05:26.040 But you know what I'm really interested in here?
00:05:28.500 Oh, you, Kyle Kemper.
00:05:31.660 You know who Kyle Kemper is?
00:05:33.300 He's Justin Trudeau's half-brother.
00:05:35.440 Yeah, he looks sort of like, you can imagine Trudeau looking at how he lived in the 1960s.
00:05:41.740 But Kyle is not a fan of his half-brother.
00:05:47.060 He's not a fan at all.
00:05:49.000 In fact, I'm going to show you a clip here.
00:05:50.340 He's going to be appearing on Tucker Carlson.
00:05:52.420 And he's going to talk about a contract that Justin Trudeau signed.
00:05:55.920 Now, this might just be clickbait.
00:05:57.920 This might mean nothing.
00:05:58.860 But what kind of a contract did he sign?
00:06:02.320 Contract with the devil?
00:06:03.940 Sometimes it looks that way.
00:06:05.620 Is it a contract with the World Economic Forum?
00:06:08.140 Is that why Klaus Schwab praises Justin Trudeau so effusively all the time?
00:06:13.600 Is that why Klaus Schwab says he has inserted himself?
00:06:20.800 I think it's the word he uses.
00:06:22.160 Inserted himself.
00:06:24.080 Impregnated cabinets around the world.
00:06:27.320 Including Justin Trudeau.
00:06:28.460 Is that what he meant?
00:06:29.580 But let's listen to Kyle here.
00:06:31.700 And as soon as we know what he's talking about, let you know.
00:06:33.920 But this could be significant.
00:06:35.180 I'm going to make this video for you.
00:06:37.640 Just here with my family in Florida.
00:06:39.860 We're in Sarasota.
00:06:42.280 You're trying to liberate Canada.
00:06:44.620 I'm trying to liberate America.
00:06:47.440 With Bobby, the remedy, Kenny.
00:06:49.920 Char-char.
00:06:51.080 Say hi.
00:06:53.640 Oh, yeah.
00:06:55.300 Oh, yeah.
00:06:57.980 Anyways, Tucker, I would love to chat with you.
00:07:00.180 Much love.
00:07:01.500 Much respect.
00:07:02.260 As you may or may not be aware, my brother is Justin.
00:07:06.760 And he signed a contract that totally sucks.
00:07:11.440 He signed up for the first half of it.
00:07:13.140 The last half, I don't think he knew was going to happen.
00:07:16.240 But he signed a contract.
00:07:18.380 So when you're a company man, you've got to play ball, right?
00:07:21.840 Anyways, I hope you're doing absolutely amazing.
00:07:24.560 And thank you for all that you do and all that you are.
00:07:27.880 And I look forward to connecting.
00:07:29.320 See you, buddy.
00:07:29.860 Bye.
00:07:30.080 Pew.
00:07:32.260 Okay, so what's the second half?
00:07:36.400 Is that eternity in hell?
00:07:37.660 Or is that economic catastrophe for Canada in the end of life as we know it at this country?
00:07:45.140 I don't know.
00:07:46.000 But I think we're going to find out that this is fascinating.
00:07:48.440 And we like to stay abreast of these things.
00:07:52.200 Now, moving right along, we've got so much to get into right now.
00:07:59.340 It's quite fascinating.
00:08:01.620 And I wanted to say as well that we had a very tragic passing this week.
00:08:14.600 And it's difficult to talk about people dying.
00:08:21.940 I've recently had some real losses in my life.
00:08:30.360 I've shared that with you.
00:08:31.340 And, you know, you all were so supportive.
00:08:34.640 And, you know, my dear, dear cat died.
00:08:39.200 But I want you to watch this.
00:08:41.340 This accords is Joe Flary.
00:08:47.400 Count Floyd here.
00:08:58.920 Saturday night, kids.
00:09:00.780 Time for another monster chiller horror theater.
00:09:03.540 I bet you're good and scared, huh?
00:09:11.140 Well, you should be because tonight we have a real terrifying film for you.
00:09:15.160 A scary movie.
00:09:17.780 You know, I've been getting a lot of mail from you nice boys and girls out there saying the show, it stinks.
00:09:25.240 Well, I'll tell you something.
00:09:27.160 I agree with you.
00:09:27.780 Sometimes it does.
00:09:28.620 But we don't get the right films.
00:09:30.180 But tonight, we have a goodie for you.
00:09:32.420 We have Whispers of the Wolf.
00:09:39.880 That's going to scare you, believe me.
00:09:42.320 Whispers of the Wolf.
00:09:43.880 Oh, it takes place in some place in Europe somewhere.
00:09:47.340 Count Floyd hasn't seen the movie.
00:09:48.980 So I'll be watching it along with you.
00:09:50.640 So stay tuned now.
00:09:52.120 You're going to be scared right out of your pants.
00:09:55.860 Or dresses or whatever you wear.
00:09:59.600 Let's take a look at the film.
00:10:02.420 Well, that's Joe Flaherty from SCTV, Second City Television.
00:10:08.200 And you know what scares me out of my pants?
00:10:09.960 It's Justin Trudeau.
00:10:11.440 That's why, if you look at the thumbnail for this episode, we've got Justin Trudeau in vampire garb, made up like a vampire, because he's sucking the life out of this country.
00:10:21.720 But he's like a vampire.
00:10:24.180 But of course, Joe Flaherty, masterful comedian.
00:10:27.500 I grew up watching Second City Television.
00:10:30.640 They were all great.
00:10:31.660 And I think this is the first member of that cast, at least one of the original members of SCTV.
00:10:38.040 This is the first passing we've had since John Candy, almost 30 years ago.
00:10:43.620 I remember the day John Candy passed away when he was making a film in Mexico.
00:10:48.840 I remember I was in the Air Force at the time.
00:10:51.440 And we were having sort of a celebration of some kind.
00:10:57.260 It was a party in the base recreation center.
00:11:02.140 And I remember the winged men officer coming up to me and saying, oh, we lost John Candy today.
00:11:10.160 And I said, yeah, he was such a talent.
00:11:13.280 But Joe Flaherty, about 30 years later, we lost him, too.
00:11:16.480 And, you know, still Rick Moranis.
00:11:18.980 And there's still others, other members, Martin Short, other members of the cast who are still with us.
00:11:25.120 And they were really great comedians.
00:11:28.300 And we missed Joe very much.
00:11:30.760 He was apparently, and I make no pretense of knowing the man or having even met Joe Flaherty.
00:11:37.220 But I have read so many good things about him in the last week or the last couple of days since his passing.
00:11:43.220 And he has been lauded and eulogized as a really kind man, giving man, caring man.
00:11:49.840 That's always nice to hear.
00:11:50.840 Because you always hear strange things about comedians over the years, don't you?
00:11:55.200 Like Peter Sellers, for instance.
00:11:56.940 Very, very isolating, selfish man at times.
00:12:00.760 Jerry Lewis could be very, very bizarre at times.
00:12:05.020 And these were people, of course, who epitomized the role and the profession of being a comic, of being a comedian.
00:12:15.660 And they're often not very funny in their private lives.
00:12:18.880 But Joe apparently was a really nice guy.
00:12:21.860 So I just wanted to take that time, spend that few minutes remembering Joe Flaherty.
00:12:27.040 All of you who grew up with SCTV, there's just so many moments that are classic moments of Canadiana that transcend Canada, of course.
00:12:37.960 You remember the, it's a Canadian fact, which was poking fun at StatsCan, coming up with some of these ridiculous statements that were authorized by the government of Canada.
00:12:48.920 That's, it's a Canadian fact.
00:12:52.140 Brought to you by FaxCan.
00:12:54.380 I used to love that.
00:12:55.840 But fond memories.
00:12:58.720 And I still, you know, will put that show on.
00:13:00.660 And it's as fresh as ever.
00:13:03.440 You're missed, Joe.
00:13:04.120 Thanks.
00:13:04.460 Thank you so much for your work.
00:13:05.760 And I wanted to move on to what else have I been doing lately.
00:13:12.120 And, of course, the House wasn't sitting for the last two weeks.
00:13:14.980 We're back again Monday with Question Period Live.
00:13:18.020 And apparently we've got some movement from the Justice Foundation on the online harms bill.
00:13:24.180 There's an event on Tuesday I will be covering.
00:13:26.000 And I hope we're pushing back on this.
00:13:29.000 I'm not seeing enough action, enough concern outside of my usual suspects, the people who, like me, are on broadcasts like this or who are writing for publications like the Post Millennial or Rebel or True North, the new media or independent media.
00:13:45.340 It seems to be the only ones really, really concerned about this.
00:13:47.600 I've seen some good articles, mind you, from legacy media columnists who usually are unconcerned about Justin Trudeau taking their free speech away.
00:13:55.820 But they do seem to be concerned about this.
00:13:58.020 I'm not seeing enough concern from the official opposition, the conservatives.
00:14:01.900 I keep saying that.
00:14:03.400 Yes, I know Paulieff has talked about C-11 and C-18 a little bit.
00:14:09.240 He's talked about repealing at least C-11.
00:14:11.780 But he's got to fight the online harms bill because it's going to mean people like you and I are going to be gagged, especially people like I.
00:14:21.180 If you're doing an Internet broadcast, I will be subject to a whole raft of anti-speech, hate speech, laws and regulations that could put me out of business, kick me off of the air.
00:14:37.660 Everyone who loves free speech should be concerned about this bill.
00:14:40.460 So I encourage you to do that.
00:14:43.140 I wanted to touch on another matter.
00:14:44.880 I don't often talk about my Substack life.
00:14:48.040 Substack is a wonderful place to find those articles and columns that might not get published elsewhere, whether it's legacy media or whether it's new media.
00:15:02.460 I'm not saying everything on there is white hot or controversial, but it's some very good writing.
00:15:11.420 I mean, Seymour Hersh now, the guy who exposed the bombing of the Russian pipeline, Nord Stream 2, as being an American operation.
00:15:24.880 Seymour, who I've interviewed twice, and I want to get back on my show again soon, is writing exclusively for Substack now.
00:15:35.780 And I encourage you to check out his writing.
00:15:37.840 But what I talked about in my last Substack, it was, is America committing suicide?
00:15:46.800 And I think this is a very valid question to ask, because how is it possibly committing suicide?
00:15:56.020 Well, through open borders and through this war in Ukraine.
00:16:04.700 I mean, Ukraine is gobbling up billions of dollars.
00:16:08.800 Joe Biden is so concerned.
00:16:10.840 He's so concerned about the integrity of Ukraine's borders, the sanctity of Ukraine's borders, that he's prepared to go to the brink of nuclear war.
00:16:24.140 We have not seen brinkmanship like this in 50 years.
00:16:28.660 Further, Eisenhower never went this far in the early years of the Cold War.
00:16:32.760 Not by a country mile did he ever come close to the kind of brinkmanship that's going on right now.
00:16:41.840 And that term brinkmanship was coined by Eisenhower's Secretary of State, John Foster Dulles, even though there was very little real moments of brinkmanship.
00:16:53.100 The Soviet Union was contained during these years, but nobody seriously thought about going to war with it, at least in the political spectrum.
00:17:00.860 And there were crackpots in the American military who thought a nuclear war was winnable.
00:17:07.240 Yeah, we would lose our tens of millions, but we would inflict hundreds of millions of losses on the Russians.
00:17:15.960 And that made the war winnable.
00:17:18.080 Utter rubbish, of course.
00:17:19.680 Balderdash.
00:17:20.440 Absolute crap.
00:17:21.800 This is, a nuclear war is not winnable.
00:17:23.940 We have to remember that today.
00:17:25.680 But Ukraine is not having an election.
00:17:28.360 And I've got a little clip to show you in that in a minute.
00:17:30.480 But it is, it's very interesting how that just doesn't seem to matter.
00:17:40.460 You know, it just, it just doesn't seem to matter to the powers that be.
00:17:47.280 And I want to show you a few clips here that form the basis of my, of my story.
00:17:55.000 The determination of every country represented here at NATO remains rock solid.
00:18:04.720 We will do everything that we can, allies will do everything that they can, to ensure that
00:18:11.880 Ukraine has what it needs to continue to deal with Russia's ongoing aggression against Ukraine,
00:18:17.700 an aggression that gets worse with every passing day.
00:18:23.060 Ukraine will become a member of NATO.
00:18:25.980 Our purpose at the summit is to help build a bridge to that membership and to create a
00:18:34.340 clear pathway for, for Ukraine moving forward.
00:18:38.580 So, of course, we believe that Ukraine deserves to be a member of NATO and that this should
00:18:43.720 happen sooner, rather sooner, sooner rather than later.
00:18:46.920 So, you want the nuclear war to happen sooner rather than later.
00:18:52.600 As I write in my Substack article, NATO used to have a very clear and comprehensible and achievable
00:19:02.140 objective.
00:19:02.680 That was to contain Soviet communism with an alliance system that effectively blocked any Soviet expansionism
00:19:12.860 into Western Europe specifically.
00:19:16.320 That's what NATO was all about.
00:19:18.800 Now, it's celebrating 75 years now, but it's, it has long since ceased to be relevant and it
00:19:26.220 should be stood down in a million.
00:19:29.040 There is a military term that should be applied to NATO.
00:19:32.360 It needs to be disbanded because it no longer has a, an achievable objective except to harass
00:19:40.640 Russia and to keep expanding until it's bound to start a war.
00:19:46.660 You get more and more members into this group.
00:19:49.460 The chance of a war erupting because one member encroaches upon Russia's sovereignty or Russia
00:19:55.500 encroaches upon a NATO country's sovereignty becomes greater and greater.
00:20:01.040 The likelihood becomes greater.
00:20:03.360 It's a club of fools right now.
00:20:06.560 And it should never have expanded after the end of the Cold War and the dissolution of the
00:20:12.540 Soviet Union.
00:20:13.840 Then Secretary of State James Baker verbally promised Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not
00:20:21.640 expand.
00:20:22.760 It was going to stay put.
00:20:24.060 It would not go eastward to Russia's doorstep.
00:20:26.700 But in response to that, Russia disbanded the Warsaw Pact, which was the Soviet Union's
00:20:31.680 reaction to NATO formed in 1956, seven years after NATO.
00:20:36.400 So they disbanded the Warsaw Pact thinking, oh, the Cold War is over.
00:20:41.560 The United States and NATO are going to start playing with us as a regular country, start
00:20:47.620 dealing with us, not as an enemy, but as a friend that needs assistance in becoming more
00:20:53.380 democratic, but that didn't happen.
00:20:55.620 NATO kept expanding in spurts.
00:20:58.620 Three countries here, six countries here.
00:21:00.940 Now they want Ukraine to join.
00:21:04.380 That would mean if Ukraine becomes a member of NATO and the war with Russia is still ongoing,
00:21:10.280 we are at war automatically with Russia.
00:21:13.000 Canada, as a member of NATO, will be at war with Russia.
00:21:15.500 Russia, and how long do you think it will be before the nukes start?
00:21:19.680 Russia's already said they're not putting up with this anymore in terms of encroachments
00:21:24.060 upon the war in Ukraine by NATO powers.
00:21:28.820 If Britain or France sends boots on the ground, God help them, but God help all of us because
00:21:34.640 they're members of NATO.
00:21:35.600 So we're in a huge pile of crap here because we cannot contain what's going to happen.
00:21:46.360 This is how the First World War began because of alliance systems that immediately began to
00:21:54.060 operate, almost robotic-like.
00:21:57.820 As soon as one nation became at war, the allied nation became at war with that country.
00:22:03.200 And then it was like a domino effect.
00:22:07.040 And nobody had the good sense to say, hold it!
00:22:11.440 We are getting into a catastrophe.
00:22:15.040 We are getting into a war that could destroy everything around us.
00:22:20.160 That could destroy the civilization we have been born into and that we live into today.
00:22:26.400 Let's just stop.
00:22:27.620 Let's take a breath and let's not go to war.
00:22:30.600 Now, that's exactly what happened in the First World War.
00:22:34.700 The civilization that the leaders of that era represented, were a part of, had sustained
00:22:42.300 and nurtured throughout their lives, disappeared, evaporated in four years of the most horrific
00:22:48.120 conflict that had ever occurred up to that point.
00:22:51.000 The carnage on the Western Front, in the trenches, destroyed every monarchy except, every European
00:22:58.080 monarchy except that in Great Britain.
00:23:01.960 It brought down the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
00:23:06.300 It destroyed Germany.
00:23:08.520 It wrecked Great Britain financially.
00:23:11.020 It was never the same after the First World War.
00:23:16.120 And of course, it brought Bolshevism to Russia.
00:23:20.500 It brought the Russian Revolution in a communist state that inflicted tens of millions of deaths
00:23:28.820 on that country in a civil war alone that erupted after the Bolshevik seizure of power.
00:23:35.820 10 million Russians died in that civil war.
00:23:38.040 Isn't it time to say enough?
00:23:40.860 Let's let Russia develop as a normal country.
00:23:44.620 They have been through enough in the last 100 years or so.
00:23:48.280 110 years.
00:23:49.260 I think it's time to go beyond saber-rattling and trying to get a war going, especially
00:23:56.260 if it's going to be a nuclear one, and we are all going to lose it.
00:23:59.940 I want to make that very clear.
00:24:01.560 So what is wrong with Ukraine here?
00:24:06.220 What is wrong with Ukraine?
00:24:08.980 There's a whole rap for this.
00:24:10.060 What is wrong with Ukraine?
00:24:40.060 What is corruption?
00:24:47.540 That post depicts the mansions that the corrupt politicians and oligarchs are buying with the
00:24:58.400 money we have sent to the black hole of Kiev.
00:25:02.340 It's not going all to armaments.
00:25:05.380 And they're selling some of the armaments anyway once they get them to make a profit off those.
00:25:10.060 It is going into the pockets of corrupt politicians, including Zelensky, Volomar Deer, Zelensky,
00:25:18.420 the president of Ukraine.
00:25:19.640 They're all putting this money into yachts, mansions, and Swiss bank accounts.
00:25:24.960 Now that is a fact.
00:25:25.920 And we are using Ukraine in a proxy war with Russia, and we're having hundreds of thousands
00:25:34.820 of young Ukrainian men and women die as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
00:25:41.960 Well, we continue to sell arms.
00:25:44.240 Well, the military-industrial complex continues to sell arms to the government, who then gives
00:25:50.340 them to Ukraine.
00:25:52.100 Canada has been no different.
00:25:54.100 We have basically starved our own military of resources.
00:25:58.280 We have no leopard tanks left.
00:26:01.320 We have lost them all to Ukraine.
00:26:03.760 They have been destroyed on the battlefield.
00:26:05.760 Now, we might have some in surplus.
00:26:08.880 I'm not 100% certain of that.
00:26:10.500 My sources tell me we might have lost them all.
00:26:14.000 We certainly, every tank we gave to Ukraine has been destroyed by Russian anti-tank fire or Russian
00:26:27.740 tanks.
00:26:28.420 They're gone.
00:26:30.400 And we continue to pour billions into a war that is inevitably going to be lost by Ukraine.
00:26:36.140 In fact, it has been lost.
00:26:37.860 It's what they're doing now in the final stages of the consolidation of victory for Russia.
00:26:43.880 Now, I'm not going to get into whether the invasion was illegal or not.
00:26:49.020 This goes back much further than the Russian invasion of Ukraine a couple of years back.
00:26:55.480 This goes back to 2014.
00:26:57.740 And there's, we don't understand all of the elements that are going on in that country
00:27:04.920 that have gone on in that country for centuries.
00:27:08.780 But we don't need to start a nuclear war over this issue.
00:27:14.740 And that's, I'm afraid that's where it's going.
00:27:17.860 Now, Zelensky, like I said, has canceled the election.
00:27:20.740 And this is ironic.
00:27:22.460 Russia just had an election.
00:27:23.680 And of course, oh, it was corrupt.
00:27:26.120 And there was no one else on the ballot.
00:27:28.080 Actually, yeah, there were other people on the ballot, including the Communist Party, which is still running candidates.
00:27:34.300 So, yes, they did have an election.
00:27:37.240 And yes, there was massive participation.
00:27:39.860 No, there weren't army soldiers positioned at ballot boxes to intimidate and threaten people to vote for Vladimir Putin.
00:27:49.980 That was nothing but bad propaganda from Ukraine.
00:27:54.360 And ironically, after all of the fuss about this election in Russia, Ukraine is canceling theirs.
00:28:02.740 Listen to this.
00:28:03.320 The reason is that under the Ukrainian constitution, they're in martial law right now.
00:28:08.080 And they have been since 2022.
00:28:10.020 And you can't hold elections during martial law under it.
00:28:13.980 So that's the official reason.
00:28:16.040 And to change that, they would need to lift martial law, which then would essentially be saying that the country is no longer in conflict.
00:28:23.760 Now, that is the reason that's been given.
00:28:26.020 We'd heard from Zelensky back in August of last year saying that he was open to holding an election, but he quickly changed his mind.
00:28:33.960 And there is a lot of reasons behind that, because a lot has changed since he made that statement.
00:28:39.040 Now, the Committee of Voters in Ukraine say that this is about political calculation.
00:28:43.480 This is a body that wants to defend the rights of people to be able to go to elections like they should have been held by now in Ukraine.
00:28:50.460 And it has said what this is about is the fact that since August, Zelensky's approval ratings have tumbled.
00:28:57.440 They've gone from the dizzying heights of 90 percent all the way down to around 60 percent, even more so, Nikki.
00:29:04.120 There are polls showing that if the former commander of the Ukrainian army, this is General Zeluzny, who was sacked recently,
00:29:11.240 if he stood against Zelensky right now, he would beat him hands down.
00:29:15.880 So a political decision possibly relating to the fact that the approval rating for Zelensky just isn't there right now.
00:29:23.400 That is interesting, isn't it? I mean, the West has always called Ukraine a beacon of freedom and democracy.
00:29:28.340 Do any of Kiev's sponsors mind the fact that Zelensky has essentially cancelled the elections and turned into an unelected dictator, really?
00:29:36.540 It seems not if you speak or listen to what the leaders have to say.
00:29:40.500 Now, Zelensky had gone to them with an idea, and that was we can hold elections if you're prepared to pay for those elections.
00:29:47.240 And the West didn't want to. And it's not difficult to understand why.
00:29:52.320 It's estimated the election would have cost some 200 million dollars.
00:29:56.340 And as we know, funds from the West aren't easy to get for Ukraine at the moment.
00:30:00.900 And when Zelensky was asked, well, why doesn't Ukraine pay for its own elections?
00:30:04.800 He said, and I'm quoting here, I won't take money from weapons and give it to elections.
00:30:11.280 And that says a lot. But let's hear what some of the reaction has been, not just from Zelensky, but from the West itself.
00:30:19.540 We all realize that now it is wartime when there are many.
00:30:22.560 Yeah. So he might lose.
00:30:29.800 So Zelensky doesn't want an election.
00:30:32.520 And this war is supposedly about to make the world safe for democracy.
00:30:37.160 It's all about freedom in Ukraine.
00:30:40.360 Sorry, I heard that first one about making the world safe for democracy before.
00:30:45.100 I think it was applied to the First World War.
00:30:47.660 And it didn't actually work out that way.
00:30:50.360 The world was not safe for democracy after the armistice of November 8th, 1918.
00:30:56.380 It actually resulted in the rise of communism and fascism and Nazism and Japanese militarism in the Far East.
00:31:08.200 So I don't think that war made the world safe for democracy.
00:31:11.660 And this one isn't doing that either.
00:31:13.800 It's not even making Ukraine safe for democracy.
00:31:17.160 So that's the hypocrisy going on here from this Zelensky clown.
00:31:21.160 And that's what he is.
00:31:21.860 He's a clown in combat fatigues or active warrior, if you will, and who just never seems to know anything except putting his hand out and asking for money.
00:31:36.000 That's what he does best.
00:31:37.640 But he's an actor like our own Justin Trudeau.
00:31:39.920 He's playing a role.
00:31:41.380 He's playing president of Ukraine.
00:31:43.380 And that's all that's going on here.
00:31:44.800 So don't hold your breath waiting for democracy to come back to Ukraine.
00:31:54.180 It's not going to happen.
00:31:56.360 And the United States held two elections during the Second World War.
00:32:00.660 That's true.
00:32:01.640 In 1940, the United States was not yet in the Second World War, but there was still a massive war on.
00:32:07.600 They had another election in 1944 when the war was still very much a going concern.
00:32:15.980 It was post-D-Day, the end of Nazi Germany was in sight, but nobody could predict what was going to happen in the Pacific Theater, where Japan was fighting on.
00:32:27.780 And this was before the atomic bomb had even been tested.
00:32:30.880 So Franklin Roosevelt, President Franklin Roosevelt, could have easily said, hey, we're not going to have an election because the times are just too shaky right now.
00:32:39.820 And besides, maybe I won't win.
00:32:44.040 That didn't happen, thank God, because Roosevelt did set an example from having an election during a war because you need to do that.
00:32:51.840 If you're fighting for democracy, you have to be one.
00:32:54.560 And Ukraine is not a democracy.
00:32:56.460 It's a despotic regime run by a clown with very, very sticky fingers.
00:33:02.420 Anyway, we've got lots to do next week.
00:33:07.420 We're back at the House of Commons for question period.
00:33:10.300 I'll be covering the Justice Foundation work and whatever else comes up in the daily workings of our house, because these guys have been away for two weeks.
00:33:20.020 We've got a number of issues that are still on the stove.
00:33:25.060 We've got the Arrive Can scam that still requires a lot of answers.
00:33:30.260 We have Chinese election interference, which the committee was operating last week.
00:33:36.420 We heard some crazy material coming out of that.
00:33:39.940 We've got the online harms bill, which the conservatives need to attack more reciferously.
00:33:45.420 And we still have the fallout from the carbon tax, which, of course, is hurting every Canadian, you and I included.
00:33:52.720 We'll be back again probably tomorrow, at the very least on Monday.
