welcome back to another stand on guard i'm your host david craden i see nobody's lining up to
00:00:07.360
listen today but that's okay it's friday i hope you've all had a good week a house of course
00:00:13.780
hasn't been sitting so we haven't had our daily tete a tete with question period i've kind of
00:00:20.200
missed it to tell you the truth but when i come back in a in a moment or two we're going to talk
00:00:26.520
about the new plastics registry yes believe it or not so we are in a very precarious position in this
00:00:37.800
country we need political change but we also need to resolve to resist
00:00:56.520
okay i've got to be quite serious about something here at the beginning we are losing subscribers
00:01:04.080
yes yes we were over 22 000 youtube decided to excise some of our subscribers so please
00:01:12.340
subscribe if you haven't done so already resubscribe if you need to this is just such bs but it happens
00:01:20.360
to the biggest stations and they seem to really go after stations that want to talk about policies
00:01:26.120
and not just personalities because you'll notice every thumbnail i put up is not a picture of trudeau
00:01:33.660
crying or trudeau being oppressed or the usual stuff i try to talk about policy here and how we can
00:01:43.440
counter trudeau's policies not just his personality yes we know he is an unalloyed narcissist we know
00:01:51.060
he calls everybody names his policies are killing canada and we're going to talk today about a new policy
00:01:59.200
that came out this week but please ring the bell like the station now at the offset so we can beat
00:02:06.560
youtube's suppression as much as we're trying to beat justin trudeau's censorship because yeah he's
00:02:14.080
he is trying to censor this station there's no question about it before i forget we've already had
00:02:20.120
orders but the stickers are great we really really like the stickers please get your order in for the
00:02:28.720
stickers at the store the creighton's right store you can read more about that in the
00:02:36.280
description and we've got these great coffee mugs yeah you can see the resolve to resist on both
00:02:41.460
sides i've got one with me here and i haven't got a picture of the magnet but i'll show you yeah
00:02:50.220
this is great for your fridge when you wake up in the morning it reminds you to stand on guard
00:02:58.800
for canadian freedom or put it on your filing cabinet at home or at work
00:03:04.180
i think it's quite handy for that too so those are available in the store and i encourage you to
00:03:11.220
have a look at those so we're going to be talking about this plastics registry you're saying plastics
00:03:18.380
registry yes while the house wasn't sitting this week guess who was really busy behind the scenes and
00:03:24.180
once or twice in front of the cameras but our favorite environment and climate change minister
00:03:30.240
steven gilbo you remember steven gilbo of course who can forget steven gilbo is legendary he's just
00:03:37.860
absolutely legendary i'm a i'm a liberal and a proud socialist mr speaker he's a liberal and a proud
00:03:44.620
socialist apparently that's the same thing these days he used to be quite different and my old friend
00:03:51.200
from the from the old liberal party you hear things from former mps that are that are quite
00:04:03.300
interesting but he is not popular with a lot of former liberal mps uh who who think he really is
00:04:10.520
not just a proud socialist but perhaps a marxist and i think that's that's something we really
00:04:19.020
have to consider with gilbo because look at this old clip here i love this this is pure gilbo from
00:04:26.700
his days as a green peace activist climbing the world tallest building today to tell the world not
00:04:34.020
to be fooled by the liberal government as the talk on climate change starts we want to tell the world
00:04:39.220
that the bush and canadian administration are out to kill the kyoto protocol
00:04:43.220
so there he is in 2001 that's 23 years ago when he said watch out for the liberals because they're not
00:04:53.560
serious about the environment well i'm afraid he couldn't say that today because he's now the minister
00:05:00.340
in this cabinet trudeau handpicked this goof this clown this buffoon who used to be a stunt man for
00:05:09.520
greenpeace by climbing buildings uh like the cn tower and making an ass and fool of himself for
00:05:17.440
environmental extremism he's now in charge the inmates are in charge of the asylum now that's
00:05:24.260
what's happened with people like gilbo in cabinet so he has now decided that we're going to have a
00:05:30.700
plastics registry you all remember the long gun registry well now we're going to have a plastics registry and
00:05:38.160
this is going to make an incumbent upon industries companies including farmers to account for all of the
00:05:47.840
plastics that they produce and use to make sure they have a record of it all and how they have disposed of them
00:05:59.360
now this is going to create an incredible administrative burden for canadian businesses so instead of creating
00:06:06.960
new products instead of having a period of innovation instead of investing in
00:06:16.640
things like resources instead of investing in development they're going to be administratively
00:06:30.640
hamstrung by this plastics registry and here's the kicker we aren't dealing with plastics right now
00:06:42.640
in any way that is adequate i'm going to explain that in a minute but just a few more comments about
00:06:48.160
gilbo it was often said about the great jazz trumpet chet baker that he was either
00:06:57.840
he was either a brilliant trumpeter with a heroin addiction or he was a heroin addict who could play
00:07:05.600
the trumpet extremely well and it was difficult to say which well something similar could be said
00:07:12.960
about steven gilbo he's either an environmental extremist activist who's pretending to be a cabinet
00:07:20.160
minister or he's a cabinet minister who really wants to be an environmental extremist so it's difficult to
00:07:30.640
know what is motivating him more but i would say it's the activism the extremism he wants to change canada
00:07:40.080
beyond recognition he wants to destroy the canadian economy he wants to bring it back to the stone age
00:07:45.840
and it's interesting how the liberals are accusing the conservatives of wanting to bring canada back to
00:07:53.040
the stone age for what reason i'm not sure somehow if you don't sign on the bottom line for the carbon tax
00:08:03.600
you want to bring canada back to the stone age and that is extremely curious because of course people who
00:08:11.520
believe that climate change is entirely madman anthropocentric they are the ones bringing canada
00:08:19.120
back to the stone age because they really really believe we should be living in caves and eschewing all
00:08:25.120
forms of traditional energy all fossil fuels not heating our homes not air conditioning in the summer
00:08:32.560
not driving vehicles cars or trucks or anything like that not flying an aircraft
00:08:38.480
and somehow relying on green energy like solar panels and windmills to produce sufficient energy now
00:08:50.320
anybody with half a brain anyone with two wits to rub together can tell you that the green energy
00:08:58.160
available to us today is not sufficient to in any way
00:09:09.120
power a modern economy i want to say that again it's not sufficient to power a modern economy there's
00:09:16.640
not enough there we still need fossil fuels and if they take it away from us we're going to freeze
00:09:22.960
we're going to starve and we're going to be in financial disaster because we can't work the economy without
00:09:29.360
it this is quite clear so what is this registry going to do well i'm going to get into why it's a farce
00:09:37.920
and why it's an absolute sham because the entire recycling program
00:09:45.120
is a sham and this is hard to take i'm not saying recycling is a bad idea i'm saying the way it's set
00:09:51.760
up in canada and the united states is a sham because it's not doing what it says it's doing but first of
00:09:59.840
all let's look at this plastics registry and see why it's going to be a disaster why we're all gathered
00:10:07.520
here today as we begin our work for inc4 the oceans and land we're committed to protect our choking with
00:10:15.360
plastic we produce buy use and throw away plastic irresponsibly and unsustainably plastic pollution
00:10:25.200
is found in every corner of our planet we are breathing drinking and eating it we know there is
00:10:33.760
another way tackling this global crisis requires a renewed sense of commitment and a stronger partnerships
00:10:41.440
between us all it calls for new ambitious action to stop global plastic produce production and waste
00:10:49.600
from tripling by 2060. let me share three reflections with you first success for me is adopting a global
00:10:58.480
deal that speaks to people's needs and aspirations over the past 30 years i have participated in the
00:11:05.760
adoption of groundbreaking and historic international agreements yes multilateralism can sometimes seem
00:11:13.920
long and tedious but it works when everyone feels represented that's what we did when we adopted the
00:11:22.560
kunming montreal global biodiversity framework and months later the high seas treaty or bbnj and the uae
00:11:31.040
consensus at cop 28 last year this plastic crisis just like climate change and loss of biodiversity
00:11:39.120
affects each community differently and developing nations indigenous peoples and marginal marginalized
00:11:46.640
communities often bear disproportionate impacts
00:11:53.920
well we didn't listen to all of his dissertation it's a bit too much to take
00:11:59.920
so this is going to as i said created an administrative burden on industry companies business farmers
00:12:06.160
everybody is going to now have to keep track of all of their plastics
00:12:10.480
and you say well that's not a bad thing if it leads to recycling but i've got two points to make about
00:12:17.440
this first of all the recycling is not happening and this is a shock to most people because i will say this
00:12:25.600
this as a small c conservative libertarian i don't see any difficulty i have no difficulty and i see no
00:12:33.120
distinct problem with recycling because it's a rational idea reusing material that otherwise would just
00:12:42.720
fill landfills would would fill dumps because obviously we can't continue to put this stuff in dumps
00:12:49.360
forever it's nice to be able to reuse it so it doesn't go in the ocean so it doesn't kill
00:12:55.680
fish and and water life and of course that is the difference between idiots who are obsessed with
00:13:03.280
climate change and real environmentalists who are really concerned about pollution real pollution
00:13:09.920
not carbon which is not a pollution but real pollution that kills fish birds and wildlife as well
00:13:21.760
as human beings real pollution that's a good thing to reduce and eradicate but the nonsense about
00:13:28.880
greenhouse gas emissions the nonsense about climate change being an existential threat
00:13:34.800
that is a faux environmental concern it's phony but that's what gilbo wants you to think about and worry about
00:13:44.960
now the problem here is that we're not recycling our plastics i want to watch you to watch a bit of
00:13:51.200
this video here and this is a shocker for people who are not up on this we are not recycling we are not
00:14:00.240
recycling the plastics at all we think we are and gilbo knows we're not recycling the plastics and i'll
00:14:08.640
have more to say about how bad this situation is after we watch this video when you recycle your
00:14:14.560
plastics it makes you feel good but did you know that many waste collectors actually see recycling goods
00:14:20.880
like commodities and buy or sell them to brokers oftentimes these brokers send the plastic trash to
00:14:26.480
poorer countries overseas where they end up in landfills open dumps or in nature the problem is
00:14:32.560
if you want transparency on what really happened to your plastic trash after you throw it in the
00:14:37.600
recycling bin most likely you're gonna hit a wall today we're looking at the ugly truth behind
00:14:42.400
recycling why recycling is a hoax and a sham in 1950 the entire world as a whole produced two million
00:14:50.960
tons of plastic fast forward 65 years and the world's plastic production jumped 190 times we're
00:14:57.680
talking about 381 million tons made in 2015 even worse cumulatively we made 7.8 billion tons total
00:15:05.920
during those 65 years when it comes to managing plastic waste there are two main ways to deal with
00:15:10.560
it you can either manage it domestically or export it not many americans know this but since the 1990s
00:15:16.480
america's popular choice has been to export it and actually exporting plastic waste is rather
00:15:21.200
routine now problem is when you export it you can't guarantee that the plastic will be treated and
00:15:26.320
recycled for the better good of mankind most likely the truth is it's not really being recycled but just
00:15:31.520
dumped in poor countries it's like you taking your household trash out every few days but dumping it
00:15:36.240
in your neighbor's yard when they're not looking so next time you put something in a recycling bin it'll
00:15:40.800
make you wonder if you're really helping the planet back in 2018 residents and city officials in
00:15:45.760
palo alto california decided to look into where their recycling was going now most of us average
00:15:50.880
americans may think the answer is simple and you can trace it but actually it's anything but it all
00:15:56.560
started in 2019 when news started circulating about plastic dumping in bali indonesia you see bali has
00:16:02.320
been a major tourist attraction in southeast asia for decades and the big reason for that comes down
00:16:06.720
to the pristine nature and waters around the land but nowadays when the sun shines down on the
00:16:11.680
waters surrounding bali not uncommon to see reflections from plastic waste floating in the
00:16:16.160
water in fact plastic waste got so bad that its governor y.n costner announced that a ban on
00:16:21.840
single-use plastic bags straws and styrofoam would start this was in late 2018 not long after a viral
00:16:28.480
video that showed a diver swimming through large swaths of plastic debris off bali's coast some say that
00:16:33.680
bali is in a state of waste emergency when news about this reached the states many residents in california
00:16:40.160
heard about it for example citizens in palo alto got curious about their own city's waste management
00:16:44.800
they wanted to know palo alto was sending its plastic waste to southeast asian countries like bali
00:16:50.560
but honestly even up today there still is no definitive answer the best the city was able to
00:16:55.040
find was that about 40 percent of its recyclable waste stays in north america and gets processed
00:16:59.600
according to strict environmental and labor standards but the sad thing is the other 60 percent
00:17:04.720
gets shipped away mainly to asia even sadder is it's unclear how much of that even gets recycled
00:17:10.560
okay 60 percent of this recyclable waste is not going to recycling centers to be reused replaced
00:17:27.920
it's being sent overseas and it's littering the third world now it's worse i've got worse news for
00:17:35.520
you it's even worse than this there was a fifth estate investigation that barely scratched the veneer
00:17:42.720
of canada's sham commitment to recycling and this is from a column i wrote this morning for the epic
00:17:50.080
times which will be running probably tomorrow but here's a sneak preview of that call now this investigation
00:17:58.640
from the cbc now this is cbc mainstream media this is not some far right this is not far right media
00:18:08.160
agency this is not even new or independent media this is legacy media reporting this now
00:18:14.240
it found it discovered at least 123 shipping containers were sent back to canada in a five-year period
00:18:22.160
after canadian recycling companies were found to be in contravention of numerous violations of
00:18:28.480
international waste export regulations 123 containers many of them going to the philippines shipped back to
00:18:36.880
canada because it was illegal these companies had the full approval of the trudeau government to send
00:18:44.720
illegal unsorted household waste to these third world countries where they hoped it wouldn't be found
00:18:52.800
noted or seen but gilbo won't tell you who these companies are and he was asked probably because he knows they
00:19:01.120
have signed clandestine agreements with the federal government to ensure that they can't be prosecuted or
00:19:08.800
punished for their actions we can't make those names public gible told the fifth estate holy crap
00:19:23.040
so here's gible no no no i can't tell you who those companies are because we've okayed it the environment
00:19:31.200
ministry has okayed this the trudeau government says okay stephen gilbo says that's all right
00:19:36.960
now that's a shocker that is an absolute shocker
00:19:46.800
so as i go on in my columns is a global plastic ban a solution then is that what this is leading up to
00:19:55.760
because the recycling is not working gilbo won't admit that because his registry is still going to rely
00:20:03.440
on recycling companies are supposed to recycle the plastic and report it recycled except it's going
00:20:09.680
the third world it's going overseas only 40 of us being recycled but they're just going to say yeah
00:20:16.000
yeah we we shipped it off for recycling no problem but no a plastic global plastic ban by what are they saying
00:20:26.400
2060 no it's not a solution it's this is more environmental showmanship and as much as i hate
00:20:35.440
to say it i hate to use the cliche it's just virtue signaling and just as green energy supplied by solar
00:20:43.760
panels and windmills cannot be expected by any rational person to power a modern industrial society
00:20:52.240
and just as electric vehicles are dependent upon fossil fuels for recharging so there is no feasible way
00:21:00.240
to eliminate all plastics in 15 years without endangering the health and safety of individuals
00:21:08.960
and the hygienic integrity of a myriad of consumer products including food
00:21:14.560
so we've come a long way from the initial trudeau government policy on plastics
00:21:24.880
you all remember what that was let's have a look
00:21:38.560
we have recently switched to drinking water bottles out of water out of when
00:21:44.400
we have water bottles uh out of a plastic uh sorry away from plastic towards uh paper
00:21:52.800
like drink box water bottles sort of things yeah folks that was a that was trudeau's initial
00:22:01.280
plastics policy it was get rid of those plastic bottles in your cupboard in your fridge and get
00:22:08.400
those little cardboard drink boxes and he was unable to articulate that in a fashion that was even
00:22:16.240
vaguely understandable or comprehensible but that's just intrudeau without a script he's an actor just he's
00:22:24.080
not an actor who was ever incapable of improvisation obviously he needed he needed the script in front of him i'm
00:22:32.800
not even sure he could memorize the lines but he needed that script in front of him and he didn't
00:22:37.920
have it during that news conference from that was from 2019 by the way so that's the old liberal
00:22:44.000
plastics policy the new liberal plastics policy is first of all we're going to we're going to have a
00:22:50.720
registry we're going to make life miserable for everybody who uses plastics even though mind you
00:22:56.640
the single use plastics policy of this trudeau government was ruled unconstitutional by a federal
00:23:02.560
court they want to eliminate single use plastics in grocery stores which of course is insane so you're
00:23:11.440
going to be buying stale vegetables fruit and meat or meat that's gone bad or you're going to be buying
00:23:20.160
meat from foreign countries or vegetables from foreign countries or or fruit from foreign countries
00:23:24.960
that can wrap it in plastic because they're not subject to the same canadian loss
00:23:36.000
but they're going to keep trying they're appealing that decision and they're going
00:23:38.880
they're trying to go through the united nations of course to give us a global policy now the other
00:23:44.960
part of the trudeau plastics policy today is a global ban which i said is not going to happen
00:23:52.000
this is the equivalent of banning the combustion engine banning the gas powered engine by 2035
00:24:04.720
that's not going to happen either because electric vehicles will not cannot fill the void there's
00:24:10.320
nothing else to replace the gas powered car or the gas powered aircraft this is not going to happen
00:24:18.160
it's nothing short of insane virtue signaling and as i say it's environmental showmanship it's an
00:24:25.680
environmental act it's theater that's all it is
00:24:32.080
so no don't expect the liberal plastics policy to actually move forward and thank god this government
00:24:42.240
will not last past october 2025 thanks for watching today folks that's an update on plastics that's
00:24:51.920
what your politicians have been up to this week when they haven't been in question period or at
00:24:58.320
least them steven gilbo have a great weekend but i will be back tomorrow with more information that you
00:25:04.160
need to know thank you for watching this episode of stand on guard and being a part of the creighton's
00:25:10.320
right channel if you've watched this episode to this point you've watched it all and that's really
00:25:15.840
important for a small station like this we always say subscribe hit the bell be a part of the creighton
00:25:24.320
resistance resolve to resist that's what we're doing and if you become a subscriber if you're a supporter of
00:25:31.600
this station or a member through substack through youtube and now you can be a local as well that's
00:25:40.560
so important to us because i couldn't do this without you i made a decision to become an independent
00:25:48.800
journalist about a year ago because i wanted to bring all of my experience in the military in journalism to
00:25:57.520
you i don't promise anything i can't deliver i don't offer clickbait i offer truth the truth is out
00:26:05.760
there and it's my job to bring that truth to life and to you thanks for being a part of the creighton's
00:26:13.600
right resistance and we'll see you again soon so we are in a very precarious position in this country
00:26:18.960
in this country we need a political change but we also need to resolve to resist
