The Candice Malcolm Show - Here’s the thing about Mark Carney

00:00:00.000 I have been talking with Mark Carney for years now about getting him to join

00:00:09.000 federal politics. I think he would be an outstanding addition at a time when

00:00:13.800 Canadians need good people to step up in politics.

00:00:18.000 Have you decided to run yet?

00:00:20.000 A wild hypothetical. Let's say the candidate wasn't part of the government.

00:00:25.000 Let's say the candidate did have a lot of economic experience.

00:00:29.000 Let's say the candidate did deal with crises.

00:00:32.000 Let's say the candidate had a plan to deal with the challenges in the here and now.

00:00:37.000 You sneaky. You're running as an outsider.

00:00:40.000 I am an outsider.

00:00:41.000 I'm back home in Edmonton to declare my candidacy for leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister of Canada.

00:00:52.000 Mark Carney, if he won, would become the first Liberal leader who has never won an actual election anywhere, ever.

00:01:00.000 A big part of understanding Mark Carney's momentum among Liberals starts with understanding how people even know him to begin with.

00:01:08.000 As the Governor of the Bank of Canada, named by Stephen Harper's Conservative government during the worst economic catastrophe of a generation.

00:01:16.000 But today, former Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper called into question some of those credentials.

00:01:22.000 Blasting Carney, who he tapped to run the Bank of Canada back in 2008, for overstating his role in steering Canada through the global financial crisis.

00:01:31.000 In a letter, Harper accused Carney of taking credit for things he had little or nothing to do with back then, asserting that the hard calls were made by former finance minister, the late Jim Flaherty.

00:01:43.000 At no point did Mark Carney work with Paul Martin to balance the budget.

00:01:49.000 At least not according to his own resume.

00:01:51.000 I mean, if he wants to call in and say, oh no, I had this secret thing that I've never talked about before while I was working for Goldman Sachs in Hong Kong, I did something.

00:02:00.000 From no job to one of England's top jobs, Mark Carney, Canada's top banker, is jumping ship.

00:02:06.000 Though Carney said for months it wasn't a job he wanted, today he announced he is taking over as head of the Bank of England.

00:02:13.000 After repeatedly saying he didn't want the job, Mark Carney says the decision to move across the pond next summer was the result of soul searching.

00:02:21.000 He gets a hero's welcome in Canada for his role with Stephen Harper and Jim Flaherty during the 2008-2009 financial crash.

00:02:30.000 He doesn't have the same stellar reputation with everyone in Britain, does he?

00:02:35.000 If you're looking at reasons why the British economy is stagnated, why people's income per capita is now lower than Mississippi, which is the poorest state in America.

00:02:47.000 I think a lot of the fingers can be pointed at the Bank of England.

00:02:50.000 Huge amounts of printing money, too much inflation, diverting resources away from the productive economy.

00:02:57.000 But also, Mark Carney had a role in pushing the disastrous net zero agenda, which has been very, very damaging.

00:03:06.000 Perhaps with an eye on the future, Carney became vocal on the need for the financial sector to do more to tackle climate change.

00:03:14.000 I would say we're in a climate crisis, just like a financial crisis, where action needs to be taken.

00:03:21.000 And that will become his focus when he takes up a new post as the United Nations Special Envoy on climate action and finance.

00:03:30.000 I think government has an important role in setting the direction for the economy.

00:03:35.000 Mark Carney is back from Europe.

00:03:37.000 Speaking as a European.

00:03:38.000 To continue what Justin Trudeau started.

00:03:40.000 A steady increase in the price of carbon.

00:03:42.000 Carbon prices have been applied sparingly.

00:03:44.000 They've been set far too low.

00:03:46.000 He even called Trudeau's carbon tax a model for others.

00:03:50.000 So no matter what he calls it.

00:03:52.000 Effectively a shadow carbon price.

00:03:54.000 Or a price on pollution.

00:03:55.000 You're going to keep paying.

00:03:57.000 Some form of carbon tax.

00:03:59.000 Just as I predicted, today, Mark Carney announced that he will pause Trudeau's carbon tax until after the election.

00:04:08.000 And then bring in a much bigger tax that has no rebate.

00:04:13.000 I led global reforms to fix the fault lines that caused the financial crisis.

00:04:17.000 Worked to heal the malignant culture at the heart of financial capitalism.

00:04:21.000 And began to address both the fundamental challenges of the fourth industrial revolution and the existential risks from climate change.

00:04:28.000 I felt the collapse in public trust in elites, globalization and technology.

00:04:34.000 You know, people will charge me as being elitist or, you know, globalist.

00:04:39.000 Well, that's exactly, you know, happens to be exactly what we need.

00:04:43.000 Do you have any issues with this kind of Renaissance warming?

00:04:45.000 They can learn the world.

00:04:46.000 How do we change the world's security?

00:04:47.000 How do we save our own security inека?

00:04:49.000 Does it coming to 언

00:05:08.000 Thank you.

00:05:38.000 Thank you.

00:06:08.000 Thank you.

00:06:38.000 Thank you.

00:07:08.000 And the only way to put out that fire is by capping our natural resource development and further taxing and regulating Canadian workers.

00:07:16.880 Mark Carney is a radical ideologue dressed up as a respectable banker.

00:07:21.720 But the mask is starting to slip.

00:07:24.440 So despite the legacy media's best efforts to prop up their golden boy and refrain from asking him any tough questions whatsoever, the more that we learn about Mark Carney, the more that we realize that something is not quite right.

00:07:37.980 So today on the show, we're going to walk you through the many examples of Mark Carney misleading Canadians, spinning half-truths, getting caught saying different things and contradicting themselves in different part of the country and saying things that are flat out not true.

00:07:53.020 Now, none of this will stop him from becoming prime minister on Sunday evening, but maybe we can convince enough Canadians to look past the legacy media image of Mark Carney and look at this man with a necessarily skeptical and critical eye.

00:08:09.180 And so I want to take this opportunity to promote a live show that we are going to be doing on Sunday evening Sunday evening is a night that Carney will be appointed as prime minister.

00:08:18.960 I predict that he will win the leadership race for the Liberals.

00:08:22.800 We're going to have a live show.

00:08:24.080 So join me and Kian Bexty.

00:08:26.340 We're going to have lots and lots of special guests throughout the evening.

00:08:29.380 Watch out for that live stream.

00:08:31.240 We'll be on X YouTube, Facebook, and of course on Juno.com, JunoNews.com.

00:08:37.360 And we will have that live show for you today.

00:08:40.000 We're going to get to the news of the day as well, folks.

00:08:42.240 We always do.

00:08:43.000 And to walk through it with me today, I'm pleased to be joined for the entire show by podcaster Sean Newman.

00:08:50.200 Sean Newman is host of the Sean Newman podcast, where they discuss issues related to faith, family, and the broader Canadian political landscape.

00:08:57.380 Sean, welcome to the show.

00:08:59.240 Yeah, thanks for having me back.

00:09:01.100 So, you know, one thing that's happened in the news yesterday that I really want to point to is that President Trump has finally understood what is happening up in Canada.

00:09:11.080 He finally saw through the game that Justin Trudeau is playing.

00:09:15.420 He hit the nail on the head.

00:09:17.120 And this is what he posted onto Truth Social.

00:09:20.340 This is, I wish that he had noticed this three months ago, but here he writes on Truth Social.

00:09:25.340 He says, Justin Trudeau of Canada calling me to ask what could be done about the tariffs.

00:09:30.000 I told him that many people have died from fentanyl that came through the borders of Canada and Mexico.

00:09:34.440 Nothing has convinced me that it has stopped.

00:09:36.660 He said that it's gotten better, but I said that's not good enough.

00:09:39.160 It ended in a somewhat friendly manner.

00:09:41.660 He was unable to tell me when the Canadian election is taking place, which made me curious.

00:09:47.160 Like, what's going on here?

00:09:48.960 I then realized he is trying to use the issue to stay in power.

00:09:53.220 Good luck, Justin.

00:09:55.400 Well, it's interesting, Sean, because I don't think that Trudeau has any hope of staying in power now.

00:10:00.700 It's a little too late for that.

00:10:01.580 But certainly the liberals are using this entire issue to drum up support for their party, to scare Canadians, to divide them, scare them, make them feel like we're at some kind of an existential crisis here, and that the only thing that can save us is a strong anti-American party, and that is the liberals.

00:10:19.160 So I'm glad that Trump noticed it.

00:10:21.160 I'm glad Trump called it out.

00:10:22.300 One of the things that I appreciate about Donald Trump is what you see is what you get.

00:10:25.580 So it's like as soon as this thing occurred to him, he puts it out online and lets everyone know what he's thinking, and I think he's completely right about this.

00:10:33.260 What do you think?

00:10:35.100 Yeah, well, I mean, we've got Elaine Duck sitting intending to resign, and I agree with you.

00:10:42.240 I think he's done.

00:10:43.700 But the liberal party certainly isn't, and they're trying to use this crisis, whatever you want to, what term we want to put on it, certainly to find a way to get Canadians behind a new leader, which certainly looks like it's going to be Mark Carney.

00:11:01.580 And they got their bad guy in Donald Trump, right?

00:11:05.920 Like, it's interesting to watch Canadians with Donald Trump.

00:11:10.440 You know, it's almost like he's our president.

00:11:13.100 It's a weird thing, right?

00:11:14.840 The divide is very real.

00:11:16.560 You either really enjoy Donald Trump or you despise him.

00:11:20.340 And they're playing off the people that truly despise Donald Trump and pushing him into, you know, I think he's been pretty clear with the government, fix this problem, and there'll be no issue.

00:11:34.720 And, you know, has there been some work done on that?

00:11:37.420 I would say more by the premiers than anything.

00:11:40.320 And he isn't happy.

00:11:41.960 I don't know.

00:11:42.760 I can't sit and act like I sit in these conversations.

00:11:45.280 But when you watch what the Liberal Party is doing and how they're rallying around it and how they're positioning everything to be against Donald Trump in the next election, we've seen it in the polls, which is, I don't know, a bit shocking to me.

00:11:57.580 Like, I would prefer not to have the Liberals there.

00:12:00.480 I think there's a lot of Canadians that would share that sentiment.

00:12:03.140 That seems to be the way that the wind is blowing currently.

00:12:07.420 It's funny that you say that in some ways Trump speaks for us because I think the majority of Canadians don't like Trump.

00:12:12.920 They have a negative opinion of him.

00:12:14.060 Even I've seen polls that show a 50-50 split among Conservative Party voters.

00:12:18.780 Half of them love the guy.

00:12:19.940 Half of them hate him.

00:12:20.500 I don't think you can really be neutral about Trump.

00:12:22.240 I think people have strong feelings one way or another.

00:12:26.120 And I will say I don't agree with his economic policy.

00:12:28.380 I don't like tariffs.

00:12:29.200 I don't think they're a good idea.

00:12:30.140 Look, if the purpose of the tariffs is to get Canada to clean up its act and start spending more of our GDP on defense spending, crack down on drug cartels and illegal immigration,

00:12:39.500 and get rid of a lot of the subsidies and sort of domestic protectionism that's been plagued Canada.

00:12:47.100 And Conservatives and people like me have been criticizing this for like a decade or more that Canada doesn't operate on a free market.

00:12:54.000 If the point is to get Canada to do that, then I think it's good policy.

00:12:58.640 But if the point is to just eliminate other taxes and live off of this world where tariffs are the new form of government, the way that government raises money, I'm not in agreement with him on that.

00:13:09.980 But I will just say that I like his optimism.

00:13:12.880 I like the pace at which he moves.

00:13:15.040 And his willingness to just address issues head on, say what he thinks.

00:13:20.720 And, you know, to me, I think that this is all deal making and this is all art of the deal.

00:13:25.620 Like, I don't think Trump is an ideologue.

00:13:27.080 I don't think that he has strong views on like which policies are the best.

00:13:31.340 But he just really likes making deals.

00:13:33.240 And I think this is kind of the way that he's making a deal.

00:13:36.040 What do you think?

00:13:37.840 Well, whether you think is right or wrong, you know, on how he's going about it, the art of the deal.

00:13:43.680 You know, this is exactly what he's working on.

00:13:46.480 And the one that he points to over and over again is peace with Russia and Ukraine.

00:13:52.400 And we saw it like, I mean, we all watched, I think.

00:13:55.600 And if you haven't, you really should go take the 49 minutes to watch him and Zelensky in the Oval Office go back and forth.

00:14:01.520 And he's since basically broke off talks because he doesn't think Zelensky is interested in peace.

00:14:07.680 And Trump has said that now for how many months?

00:14:10.960 Like, go back to his race up to him becoming president is that he wants peace.

00:14:17.600 And peace means he has to deal with Putin.

00:14:19.340 And everybody has their thoughts on Putin as well.

00:14:21.860 And so there's a lot going on here that is more than just Canada.

00:14:27.140 You know, certainly the tariffs are hurting us.

00:14:31.240 But, like, you know, like, when you look at everything he's trying to do, I see a guy that's trying to get the world away from where it has been.

00:14:41.460 And that is a lot easier said than done.

00:14:44.320 You know, here in Canada, we have a whole bunch of things going on that me and you have talked about on my show and your show and on the live stream when you hopped on that we all stare at.

00:14:54.200 And we're like, this is we're just we're in bizarro land here in Canada.

00:14:58.040 And I think Trump is starting or maybe he's always known, but certainly he's starting to play his chips or his cards.

00:15:05.020 Like, he's beginning to understand how much of a failed state Canada has become under a liberal government, under Justin Trudeau specifically.

00:15:15.460 And he's definitely rattling the cages.

00:15:17.580 And the one thing that I find very interesting about it is how much it's dominating the conversation of Canada, which, you know, you always I'm sure you are similar to me that you want more people engaged in politics.

00:15:29.920 And when it's quiet and there's nothing going on, everyone just goes about their day and cheers for Team Canada beating the U.S. and Four Nations Cup.

00:15:37.280 When there's things like booing the national anthem and tariffs coming in, tariffs not coming in, clean your act up, you're, you know, pointing to the Liberal Party doing this to try and stay in power.

00:15:49.300 More and more people are talking about it.

00:15:51.260 And that is fascinating to me because I think a lot of us in the independent realm have been trying to wake more and more Canadians up to get them in the conversation.

00:16:00.380 Because as I've learned in my brief time in covering politics is it's not a spectator sport.

00:16:06.660 Like, it truly isn't.

00:16:07.740 You have to be involved.

00:16:09.140 You have to start to pay attention to these things.

00:16:11.340 Otherwise, the powers that be will continue to rule over us in any way they see fit, which really just pains me sitting on this side, because I think there's a real opportunity for Canadians to grab back not only their small communities, but their provincial governments and their country as a whole.

00:16:32.080 And, you know, I guess in short or in long, there's just a lot going on here.

00:16:39.740 Well, you're right that Trump is so busy and we're, you know, we're so introspective and we're so obsessed over little things that he said about Canada.

00:16:46.640 But then you take a step back and you look at what he's doing domestically, all of his different priorities.

00:16:51.760 I mean, he had his joint session, joint speech to the joint session on Tuesday evening and just hearing him go through his agenda.

00:16:58.440 You realize, like, how small and insignificant the Canada issue is to the Americans and how kind of all-consuming it is for us here.

00:17:06.820 Well, to go back to this idea that it is the art of the deal and in the art of the deal, he says, throw out your most outrageous claim at the beginning so that the other side gets kind of thrown off and then you're more likely to get closer to your side in the negotiation.

00:17:21.040 I think that that is what this whole thing is.

00:17:22.860 And interestingly, the Bloc-Quebec law leader is coming out and saying this and basically saying the same thing that Trump is saying.

00:17:30.760 So here is Yves-Francois Blanchet.

00:17:33.160 He says this in English, but then I'm going to play the French clip because in French, he goes on a little bit more.

00:17:38.240 So he says that he thinks that Trump isn't being serious, that it's kind of a fantasy that Canada will join the United States,

00:17:43.020 but that Trudeau is cynically using this to mobilize the Liberal Party, using this as a political issue, and basically we shouldn't let Trudeau get away with this.

00:17:53.040 So let's play this clip.

00:17:54.100 I don't think President Trump is really intending to try and annex Canada.

00:18:00.760 It's just a kind of a fantasy, but I don't think he really believes that.

00:18:05.740 In any case, it won't happen.

00:18:06.960 But when Mr. Trudeau used that to mobilize Canadians, well, actually, I thought it was somewhat extraordinary that he was really trying to mobilize liberals.

00:18:18.860 So that's exactly right. And we did get some good news yesterday, Wednesday, March 5th.

00:18:25.360 The President, President Trump's press secretary announced that there will be a 30-day reprieve from tariffs for automakers under the free trade deal.

00:18:35.840 So spokeswoman Carolyn Levitt made that announcement that there will be an exemption for General Motors, Ford and Salantis.

00:18:42.720 So some good news. But again, until we address the underlying issues, I think that Trump has raised with regards to the border and fentanyl and those operations,

00:18:53.480 Canada's weaknesses that we haven't addressed under the Trudeau government, I think that probably they will still be coming.

00:19:01.020 I want to show what the premiers are up to as well, because I'm not a big fan of Doug Ford, Ontario premier, as you know,

00:19:07.040 because I was on your live stream on election night and you heard my criticisms of him there and the audience knows as well.

00:19:11.680 But I think that when he goes on President Trump's favorite news channel, Fox News, and appears in an interview with Brett Baier,

00:19:20.100 he is doing the job that the Canadian prime minister should be doing, right?

00:19:22.740 We see Justin Trudeau going out onto MSNBC and CNN, these left-wing outlets, that you know that no one in the Trump administration is watching that.

00:19:31.200 Whereas when you go on Fox News and you talk directly to the people, I think this is much more effective.

00:19:35.480 So here is Doug Ford making the case for a greater union between Canada and the United States, he calls it AMCAM,

00:19:42.120 and saying that China is the problem, not Canada. Let's play that clip.

00:19:46.760 I do not understand why he wants to attack his closest friend and his ally. He should be focusing on China.

00:19:54.260 He should be focusing on China with the autos that are coming in that don't comply with the USMCA.

00:20:03.400 We are your closest allies and friends. We're your largest customer in the world.

00:20:08.680 And we want to build the AMCAM fortress. That's the best thing to do.

00:20:13.860 As he's focusing on his friends, China is just going, moving up every single day. 0.98

00:20:18.700 So I think that's the most effective message for Canada at this point. What do you think?

00:20:25.040 Well, I was going to, if I can hop back to the Quebec leader first, one of the things, you know, like, are the deal or not, right?

00:20:34.680 Throwing things out that he's not going to follow through or not.

00:20:37.280 One of the things that I don't think politicians get is by throwing out those things.

00:20:45.440 I started a conversation here in Alberta that you'd asked me about the first time we talked, you know,

00:20:51.280 like, is Alberta really interested in independence and et cetera?

00:20:55.880 And at the time I was like, you know, like, there's a small contingent, you know, kind of thing.

00:21:03.060 What Trump has done and what I don't think most Canadian politicians get, and if they do, they certainly don't acknowledge it,

00:21:10.860 is that the conversation has begun and it's begun in a large way.

00:21:15.460 We saw Jeffrey Rath talk about leading a delegation down to Washington

00:21:20.880 to discuss a deal about Alberta becoming the 51st state.

00:21:25.180 Because the first thing that happened in the conversation about Canada becoming the 51st state,

00:21:30.980 I can speak for Albertans out here, they went, why the heck would we do that?

00:21:35.040 We want to have a voice.

00:21:36.080 We don't want to be lumped in with everyone.

00:21:38.580 We want a voice.

00:21:39.240 And so you learn real fast out here that the 51st state idea, yeah, might, like, overall,

00:21:45.840 why would Trump want to add in a left-leaning voting demographic?

00:21:51.540 That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

00:21:53.760 That's going to go more into, let's call it, woke world than the way he's pulling.

00:21:59.840 So that gets solved in the first conversation we had.

00:22:03.600 The next conversation that starts is what would it actually look like if Alberta became independent,

00:22:10.060 became the 51st state? 0.85

00:22:11.240 And what you find, and I've found since our last chat, is I'm like, holy crap,

00:22:16.300 there's a lot more Albertans that are interested in this idea than I had previously thought.

00:22:21.860 It kind of surprised me a bit.

00:22:24.020 But, I mean, you know, it shouldn't shock us.

00:22:25.960 Quebec's had its own referendums on separation.

00:22:30.740 And so the sentiment is there.

00:22:32.660 It's always underneath kind of the prevailing narrative.

00:22:37.400 And what this conversation has sparked is little cracks in it to where Jeffrey Rath's, you know, clip is going viral all over the place

00:22:47.420 to the point where he's leading, going to lead a delegation down to Washington.

00:22:51.520 And I'm told, like, everybody wants on the plane to go.

00:22:54.840 And I'm like, that's interesting because if he comes back, just play the scenario.

00:22:58.800 Maybe he goes down and talks to nobody, okay, and then he goes nowhere.

00:23:01.340 On the flip side, what if they get to talk to somebody and they go, listen, we'll give you, you know,

00:23:07.020 like, just from the economics of it, we'll give you the American dollar, just for simple.

00:23:14.940 We'll transfer your bank accounts and they'll be all American dollars immediately overnight.

00:23:18.480 I have no idea if that's possible.

00:23:20.500 But, like, there isn't a person sitting here that isn't going, well, that's like 30% more money in my pocket as I sit right now.

00:23:27.380 Just from an economic standpoint.

00:23:29.360 And I'm finding more and more, the longer this conversation goes on, the more this conversation is starting to heat up.

00:23:37.520 And, you know, if we get in a true all-out trade war with the United States, I can say from the Western side,

00:23:44.580 what's happening is this conversation is picking up steam.

00:23:48.540 It's everywhere I go now, it's the conversation of topic.

00:23:51.740 And, you know, the politicians can say, oh, we're going to do this and we've got to explore different markets.

00:23:56.000 Well, we've been saying this for how long?

00:23:57.840 They talk about Energy East and one breath, they're like, oh, maybe we should do that.

00:24:01.280 And the next, Quebec goes, no, we're never doing that.

00:24:03.580 It's like, well, this has been the problem with Canada for a very long time.

00:24:06.680 Daniel Smith says we've got to open all the ports.

00:24:08.600 If they're going to shut us off, we've got to go.

00:24:10.420 We should have been doing that anyways.

00:24:13.060 And so I think there's a growing conversation happening here, at least in Alberta.

00:24:18.380 It is an offshoot that, you know, a couple of weeks ago when I was on the show, you know, at the time I was like, yeah, there's a little bit of talk, but that isn't that big.

00:24:26.980 It's growing.

00:24:27.940 And the longer this goes on, it's only going to grow more.

00:24:30.540 If Jeff Rath actually takes a group of people down there and they actually get to sit and talk to somebody within the administration that can sit and be like, well, we could maybe do this and this and this.

00:24:40.920 Sure, there's going to be legal ramifications that Canada's not going to want any part of that.

00:24:45.480 But from an Alberta citizen standpoint, I think people are interested in hearing what the deal is and does that transform a deal that Canada has to offer Alberta or other provinces?

00:24:55.920 I think that's a big part of this conversation that politicians are missing.

00:25:01.000 It's super interesting you say that.

00:25:02.420 Yeah.

00:25:02.620 So Rachel Parker had this interview that just completely went viral and all of a sudden big American accounts like Charlie Kirk were promoting this idea.

00:25:10.160 Now, I don't know that a citizen who's a lawyer can actually negotiate on behalf of a province because I have Danielle Smith who came out pretty strong yesterday.

00:25:20.160 I would say this is the strongest language that I've heard from her saying that basically that Alberta is willing at this point to take measures to go against these tariffs.

00:25:31.160 So I want to play first this clip of Danielle Smith yesterday saying that Alberta's trump card, no pun intended, is our oil.

00:25:39.340 So let's play that clip.

00:25:41.340 I also want to point out that Canada has a secret weapon in this trade conflict with the United States, a trump card, so to speak.

00:25:49.900 And it is located directly under our feet.

00:25:52.600 And it is called Alberta Energy.

00:25:54.320 Whether the U.S. president wishes to admit it or not, the United States not only needs our oil and gas today, they are also going to need it more and more with each passing year once they notice their declining domestic reserves and production are wholly insufficient.

00:26:09.440 And then further, I'll just play the second clip of Danielle Smith.

00:26:14.440 This clip was going viral online yesterday.

00:26:16.440 The American account Libs of TikTok shared it, but this is Smith, Premier Smith, sounding pretty firm, saying that she has directed her cabinet to ensure that basically Americans are no longer able to pay for procurement.

00:26:29.440 They are not able to be involved in, no American alcohol will be able to be purchased, no video lottery terminals as well.

00:26:38.440 So let's play that clip.

00:26:39.440 I've directed my cabinet to alter our procurement practices to ensure the government of Alberta, along with our agencies, school boards, crown corporations, and all Alberta municipalities, purchase all needed goods and services from Alberta companies, from Canadian companies, and from countries with which Canada has been

00:26:59.420 Canada has a free trade agreement that is being honoured. Second, no further purchases of U.S. alcohol or new VLTs will be permitted through the AGLC until further notice.

00:27:12.420 So what do you think of the Premier's new tone that she's taking?

00:27:17.420 Well, I want to first say about the citizen, do they have any capability to go down to the U.S.?

00:27:22.420 I want to remind us in this conversation, we're about to have a prime minister who wasn't elected.

00:27:27.420 So we're going to one way point out that a citizen can't go down and represent the views of some Albertans, but we're going to have an unelected prime minister negotiating with the president of the United States.

00:27:40.420 That makes zero sense.

00:27:42.420 I agree. I'll just go back at that because when people were criticizing Kevin O'Leary for being an unelected person going down, he just said, look, I'm a free citizen. I can do whatever I want. But I think that's different than going down to try to negotiate some kind of a annexation.

00:27:56.420 Like, yes, you know, there's a there's a percentage of people in Alberta who are interested in this, who want to find out more.

00:28:05.420 But I don't think that that gives this delegation any power to start saying, like, this is how it could go and give us the U.S. dollar, et cetera.

00:28:12.420 I 100 percent agree. Right. Like, I agree. But our country is weird. And I don't know how better to say it, Candace. Daniel Smith, we just showed. And I told you this last time, like she became the premier of a province and was never elected to do so. Right.

00:28:30.280 She wanted a leadership race after canning was pulled out and she became the acting chief of a province. We're about to have the same thing happen as a country. And I feel the sentiment that is growing more and more and more is that the voices of the public are being heard less and less and less.

00:28:51.700 And so they're starting to take things into their own hands. So while I agree, a delegation going down has no real power to enact anything. OK, they're still free to go have the conversation and they're still free to bring back the information.

00:29:08.120 And that information is going to do lots of things that I cannot predict, honestly. And, you know, like, yeah, Daniel Smith is talking tough now.

00:29:18.500 She's she's you know, we're we're we're beginning to enter a trade war when you're pulling off things. And what's Donald Trump going to do with that? Well, I don't see him backing down.

00:29:28.040 The thing I just saw is that he's going to revoke. I forget the numbers at 240,000 or 270,000 Ukraine refugees visas into the United States.

00:29:37.600 Like this isn't a man that I see. Taking that lightly. And so does this escalate? It looks like it's going to. And what does that mean for Canadians?

00:29:49.360 Interesting days ahead. I can use probably a few other ones.

00:29:52.380 Just that, you know, like the the the delegation, it's like, no, I agree.

00:29:56.980 Like they don't have any they're not elected to do that. But I might point out the the most outspoken province in the country had an unelected official be put in.

00:30:07.520 And now she is elected and she's won her seat. And I have nothing ill to say there.

00:30:11.760 But we're about to have a prime minister who isn't elected, who's just tied to the weft and globalist as humanly possible.

00:30:17.640 And I think everybody's looking at that going, is there a way this guy gets in?

00:30:21.200 If there is, it's probably on the citizens now to start having more and more conversations to force some of these politicians hands, because we can't just act like Carney getting in isn't a big deal.

00:30:33.440 That is a big deal. We should have had an election, but we haven't.

00:30:37.760 And now, you know, like when Trump goes, when's your election? And nobody knows.

00:30:41.140 I laugh at that because we don't. We actually have no idea.

00:30:43.800 And there's a lot of different dates thrown out on when that could be.

00:30:48.980 But we don't know. We have no clue.

00:30:51.580 Everybody's waiting for Carney to get in because we assume that's going to happen.

00:30:54.620 Then we're waiting for prorogation and then we're waiting for his throne speech, I assume.

00:30:59.540 And you can correct me if I'm wrong here. And then we assume there's going to be a vote of non-confidence.

00:31:03.300 We assume. But we actually don't know that all these things are going to transpire and that things before then aren't going to change.

00:31:09.280 And there's there's just a growing sentiment of what are we doing here?

00:31:14.120 What are our politicians doing for us? And we need to we get that we need to figure this out.

00:31:20.780 And I guess there's a lot of there isn't that much faith left in the politicians to figure it out.

00:31:25.640 Well, you're right about so many things. And I feel like the situation is so it's so it's such a hostile situation.

00:31:33.700 Like we don't know what's going to happen. And it's hard to predict because Canadians are like like we're dealing with this crisis of cost of living.

00:31:41.720 Right. Young people are being completely blocked out of the housing market.

00:31:44.920 Everything is so much more expensive as a result of Trudeau's policies, I can name a few.

00:31:50.660 The printing of money and overspending during covid and beyond mass immigration.

00:31:55.780 That's just made everything so much more expensive because there's so many people trying to get houses and there's a limited housing supply.

00:32:02.500 And then also, of course, the carbon tax. It just puts extra tax on everything throughout the supply chain.

00:32:07.320 So all those things together compounding.

00:32:09.500 And he's going to call it a shadow tax. He's just like you can't up except he's literally saying it to all Canadians.

00:32:17.040 And you're like. What is going on when it's some common sense in there?

00:32:22.740 And I think for a lot of us, we just assume Pierre was going to get in basically in April.

00:32:27.460 That's that's what we assumed a few months ago. And so much change since then.

00:32:33.320 My hope is that things are going to change real fast.

00:32:36.280 Well, how much I put, you know, I'm not staking my life on that.

00:32:41.620 I mean, things could change, right?

00:32:43.600 Like if Carney, all those things happen and then he looks at the polls, there was an Ipsos poll that came out last week that had him two points ahead for the first time in four years, a liberal up ahead.

00:32:53.620 You think maybe they'll trigger an election. This is as good as it's going to get.

00:32:56.780 Carney's in his honeymoon period. The media refuses to give a critical eye on him and his background, his policies and his many contradictions.

00:33:03.620 Maybe he'll go for it. But then, Sean, there was another poll that came up this week that shows the conservatives are actually way ahead.

00:33:09.680 And maybe that's a reflection of Carney of Canadians finally kind of look at this guy and saying, well, wait a minute.

00:33:16.100 He didn't do very well in debates. He doesn't speak French very well.

00:33:20.000 And like we're going to go through it later in the show here.

00:33:22.620 But there is example after example after example of him contradicting himself.

00:33:27.160 Now, I want to get to these election rumors that are swirling around.

00:33:30.580 So Brian Lilly, who is a senior political correspondent for the Toronto Sun, he's in the know.

00:33:36.120 He knows everybody. And he wrote this on X.

00:33:39.080 He says a couple of things I'm hearing.

00:33:40.820 Carney and his new smaller cabinet could be sworn in as soon as March 11th or 12th.

00:33:45.920 Lots of speculation of a quick election call.

00:33:48.000 I previously said March 16th, voting day, April 22nd.

00:33:51.680 But some think a week or two later, some spooked over bad press for Carney over the past week or so.

00:33:57.320 An internal debate is still going on or over going early or later is raging.

00:34:04.420 And then we have Marty up north who was on the program earlier this week.

00:34:07.820 He writes this on X.

00:34:08.780 He shares a text message that he got from somebody that says,

00:34:13.820 Hey, Marty, just talking with my brother, who's a 30-year employee and captain with Air Canada,

00:34:18.600 looks like we are likely getting a federal election mid-May.

00:34:21.900 He says charters have been booked and a call-up for crew to fly Air Canada-wide from early April to mid-May.

00:34:27.520 He says the only time this happens is for federal elections.

00:34:31.380 So, I mean, nothing's probably decided yet and there's no way to know.

00:34:35.840 But it seems like we might be heading towards an election right away, which at least would give some legitimacy.

00:34:42.540 Now, I don't want to put too much fear out there.

00:34:46.380 But the one thing I am worried about for Albertans and for the unity of our country is if Mark Carney wins.

00:34:51.360 If he manages to pull the wool over everyone's eyes, legacy media does what the legacy media does,

00:34:55.560 which is completely whitewash and make him look good in every light and spend all their time criticizing the conservatives.

00:35:02.660 And if the Liberals manage to win with the record of the past nine years and with Trump offering Alberta possibly something different,

00:35:11.040 I don't know.

00:35:11.640 I think at that point it might be a different conversation and more and more Albertans may be willing to hear from that.

00:35:17.800 What do you think?

00:35:18.200 Well, first, on the flights being booked, on Brian Lilly's post, I once had Tom Korski on from Black Rocks.

00:35:31.040 And I think Tom Korski is as connected as anyone.

00:35:34.580 And he said, you know, he told me six months ago, you know, when you look at what's happening, this only happens before a federal election.

00:35:41.900 So anytime I hear that statement, I'm like, OK, well, I've been hearing that over the past eight months and every time it comes to pass and it never happens.

00:35:52.020 So forgive me to your audience for being skeptical of anything at this point.

00:35:57.480 I don't trust any of it until I hear there's an election being called.

00:36:01.700 So until that happens, I don't care.

00:36:04.760 I'm waiting to see if an election's called.

00:36:08.620 In the off chance that Eastern Canada votes in Mark Carney, I will tell your listeners, the separation, independence, whatever we're going to call it, movement in Alberta will go supersonic.

00:36:22.140 Like, you cannot tell me what we have lived through in the last 10 years under this liberal government.

00:36:29.320 If they're elected again, you want unity in this country?

00:36:32.600 That is not going to bring it.

00:36:33.940 That's going to do the complete opposite.

00:36:36.380 If I can change my mind in a two week period of talking to you, I'm like, I don't hear that much of it.

00:36:41.760 Now where I go, hear more of it.

00:36:43.360 And then it builds to where Carney is possibly the prime minister of Canada for a four year stint.

00:36:50.220 Yeah, no, like I, it pains me to say because I love Canada.

00:36:56.120 But that conversation is going to go supersonic.

00:36:59.440 It's going to go through the roof because Albertans are already frustrated.

00:37:02.540 And I think they see some hope in the horizon, but that horizon was illusion and it just keeps getting pushed down the road and pushed down the road and pushed down the road.

00:37:13.640 And until there's an election and we see what Eastern Canada is going to do.

00:37:17.860 I don't know if there can be any talk of unifying Canada at this point.

00:37:21.220 Like, you got to get out. 0.99

00:37:23.720 Fancy sucks. 0.97

00:37:24.520 Okay, he's out. 0.99

00:37:26.000 Now we're going to have Mark Carney who talks about being a globalist and a WEF and everything.

00:37:30.700 And that is a possibility.

00:37:31.740 We're even having this conversation where it's a possibility.

00:37:34.260 It's just, I don't know.

00:37:36.500 It's the most frustrating thing on this side.

00:37:38.440 I hope the polls don't show the sentiment of Eastern Canada.

00:37:42.820 I know a lot of people out there.

00:37:43.880 There's a lot of wonderful people.

00:37:45.620 It's just when you look at how the voting is going to go, we all know it here.

00:37:49.160 We have to wait and see what that side of the country is going to do.

00:37:53.300 And that's going to dictate where this goes.

00:37:55.640 And so when you see the polls start to shift, you're like, there's no way.

00:37:58.580 Like, this can't happen.

00:38:00.560 And yet, I thought the same thing, honestly, in 2021.

00:38:04.640 And then it happened.

00:38:05.840 And so here we are in 2025.

00:38:07.940 Everyone's like, well, these signs say there's going to be an election.

00:38:10.580 I say BS until it actually happens.

00:38:13.720 I do not trust any of that.

00:38:16.820 And I feel like I'm becoming more and more frustrated longer than this conversation goes around.

00:38:22.920 Like, I can't believe, I watch your, if that video of what you showed at the start of this show,

00:38:27.220 if every Canadian's seen it, I'm like, would you, how would he ever get voted in?

00:38:32.520 It's the most laughable thing in the world.

00:38:35.140 And yet, somehow, and partly to do to what you're talking about with media and how they frame it,

00:38:43.580 this is a large chunk of that discussion.

00:38:46.220 I mean, it's just, it's very frustrating on this side.

00:38:49.060 Well, it's interesting that you say that because the media has made efforts to paint Mark Carney in a certain way, right?

00:38:56.260 They paint him as this, like, stable hand who's always been there for the crisis.

00:39:00.620 He's a respectable person.

00:39:02.120 He's incredibly impressive.

00:39:03.660 Like, look at how nice he is.

00:39:04.940 But that's not showing the full side.

00:39:06.860 And I want to spend a bit of time now, Sean, to show Canadians the other side, 1.00

00:39:10.760 the side that they might not see on the CBC.

00:39:13.300 So I'm going to start with Tuesday evening in Calgary.

00:39:17.240 Mark Carney was doing a fundraiser trying to make money off of wealthy bankers in Calgary.

00:39:21.840 I want to meet the future prime minister.

00:39:24.060 And this is just indicative of his attitude because he will not let anybody from the independent press into the room.

00:39:32.520 You had the Weekly Standard trying to get in the front door.

00:39:35.800 I think we have some footage of that.

00:39:37.500 And even though they had registered, even though they have a respectable journalist there,

00:39:41.300 someone who has interviewed many, many politicians, just saying,

00:39:45.340 no, sorry, you can't come in.

00:39:48.080 You're too much of a risk.

00:39:49.460 We can't allow you anywhere near Mark Carney.

00:39:52.700 The same thing has happened over and over again.

00:39:54.760 Let me just point out, True North's Noah Jarvis drove out to Oakville, Ontario, which is a suburb of Toronto.

00:40:01.080 Very polite, well-mannered young man.

00:40:03.680 Noah Jarvis, not allowed in, rejected from the event.

00:40:07.680 Again, he had mild-mannered questions that he wanted to ask the future prime minister.

00:40:12.020 But because he doesn't work for government-funded media, they just wouldn't even let him in the door.

00:40:17.100 Same thing happened to Isaac Lamoureux of True North up in Edmonton for Mark Carney's campaign launch.

00:40:23.060 Exact same thing.

00:40:23.820 Wouldn't let him in the door.

00:40:24.960 Well, this time around in Calgary on Tuesday, we sent Juno News' Kian Bextie.

00:40:29.660 Because Kian doesn't take no for an answer. 1.00

00:40:31.320 And Kian finds a way to get in the face of a politician or as close as they could get. 0.91

00:40:36.180 Because, of course, there are RCMP thugs surrounding this place.

00:40:39.700 No disrespect to the RCMP.

00:40:41.680 I shouldn't say thugs.

00:40:42.760 RCMP officers who have been paid by Carney and his thugs to keep the press away from Carney.

00:40:48.880 No skeptical questions allowed.

00:40:50.860 So play this clip.

00:40:51.540 This is an exclusive.

00:40:53.400 Kian Bextie confronting Mark Carney, trying his very best to get a question in.

00:40:57.860 And you'll see how it goes.

00:40:58.880 Let's play that clip.

00:40:59.480 Mr. Carney, why did you lie about moving Brookfield's headquarters to New York?

00:41:07.720 How can Canadians trust you to stand up for this country when you lied about such simple things?

00:41:12.500 Why are you using police resources to help yourself get elected, Mark?

00:41:18.780 Mark, why did you lie?

00:41:20.100 So that's as close as they're going to let an independent journalist get to the future king of Canada, the future prime minister.

00:41:29.720 And I think that's a problem.

00:41:30.880 I think when you are that scared of asking, I mean, Kian Bextie's questions were perfectly reasonable.

00:41:37.440 Like, why did you lie about Brookfield, right?

00:41:40.300 These are questions that Canadians deserve to know the answer to.

00:41:42.920 And as you can see, they just have absolutely no interest.

00:41:45.980 And let me just point out, Sean, that True North is a qualified Canadian journalism outlet.

00:41:52.320 What does that mean?

00:41:52.960 It means that they applied for a status through the Trudeau government to register them as real journalists.

00:41:59.320 This was a big fight over the last few years because Trudeau came up with these designations.

00:42:03.480 They're not fair.

00:42:04.040 They shouldn't exist.

00:42:04.960 The government shouldn't be in the business of determining who's a real journalist and who isn't.

00:42:08.580 But regardless of what should be, True North went through the process and they were approved.

00:42:14.060 Even with the cards stacked against us, we got approved.

00:42:18.040 True North is approved.

00:42:19.260 So we are a journalist in the eyes of the Canadian government in the Trudeau administration, the Trudeau government.

00:42:25.000 And even with that qualification, they still won't let us in.

00:42:29.520 It's outrageous.

00:42:30.420 What do you think?

00:42:32.340 I just say look at history, right?

00:42:35.060 What other countries did that and fund governments, fund media and silence people? 0.70

00:42:41.780 And I mean, this is why my frustration is at an all-time high.

00:42:47.180 I just, to me, do you want a leader who addresses the questions?

00:42:51.320 This is why I got all the time in the world for Daniel Smith, because she'll take some heaters at her head, you know, to use a baseball reference. 1.00

00:42:57.780 And, you know, you can love or hate her answer, but she's going to try and answer to the best of her ability.

00:43:04.440 Now, there's a whole conversation on the side of Daniel Smith that people love and hate, okay?

00:43:10.200 But at least she's willing to answer questions and bring the audience in and have the media come. 1.00

00:43:15.180 When you look at the leadership federally, this has become the trend.

00:43:21.520 I don't know why this shocks anyone.

00:43:22.840 It doesn't shock me.

00:43:23.760 It's more of the same, if not worse.

00:43:26.220 And I go, if you're in Eastern Canada, this shouldn't even be a question of this guy getting in.

00:43:32.480 This guy should not get in.

00:43:34.320 But he is going to get in because of a loophole in how our countries ran, you know?

00:43:40.140 Like, as soon as your leader of the country resigns, it should trigger an election.

00:43:45.180 Side note, you know?

00:43:46.860 Like, that's just, that should happen.

00:43:48.820 But regardless, I'm just an angry Albertan, I guess.

00:43:53.200 When you look at what he's doing, if you vote this guy in, this is going to be the way it is.

00:44:00.920 And it's only going to get worse.

00:44:02.880 It ain't going to get better.

00:44:04.900 It isn't just doing this for show and then he gets in and all of a sudden he becomes,

00:44:08.640 Oh, June North, come on in.

00:44:10.740 Juneau News, come on in.

00:44:12.340 We want to have you.

00:44:13.380 Oh, Sean Newman's in the audience.

00:44:14.940 What question do you have?

00:44:16.640 Oh, that isn't the way this is going to go.

00:44:18.740 It's only going to get worse.

00:44:20.840 When he jokes about, and I know he's not even joking.

00:44:23.600 I like just, I can't believe he said it out loud.

00:44:26.680 He's talking about the carbon tax and becoming a shadow carbon tax.

00:44:30.680 So we can't criticize it and know what it's doing.

00:44:34.560 Right?

00:44:34.800 Like, it's just, everyone can see.

00:44:38.300 I don't even have the words anymore of how frustrated I am that we're sitting here in a 2025.

00:44:43.240 We don't know when an election is coming.

00:44:45.680 The fact that it was an American.

00:44:48.220 I mean, Brian Lilly pointed it out.

00:44:49.960 But I argued with an American over it because I didn't think it was possible to push an election to 2026.

00:44:56.240 I'm like, that's impossible.

00:44:57.060 No, it has to be this.

00:44:58.280 You know, like, I read a bunch on it.

00:45:00.000 And then, you know, the more you dig on it, you're like, that is crazy.

00:45:03.660 That will never happen.

00:45:06.180 But I go, like, I don't know.

00:45:07.780 Unless we demand something, there's a lot of things that can happen and are beginning to happen that honestly just unnerved me.

00:45:16.600 You know, like, I'm sitting where I'm sitting right now with my family and my life.

00:45:22.160 I'm surrounded by great human beings.

00:45:24.620 But our country as a whole, you know, to keep it united, to try and keep it as Canada, you know, you can't have four more years of Kearney.

00:45:33.260 That is an insane, I can't put as many exclamation points behind that word, idea.

00:45:40.000 It's an insane idea.

00:45:42.700 Oh, I completely agree.

00:45:44.280 I think that we're turning some dangerous territories.

00:45:46.920 And, I mean, the list is growing, Sean, of the examples of Kearney just flat out contradicting himself.

00:45:52.800 I don't want to belabor this too much.

00:45:54.240 We've covered it on the show.

00:45:55.800 So, early February, Mark Kearney is out in Kelowna, British Columbia, speaking to supporters.

00:46:01.420 And he says that they are going to do everything they can to accelerate major critical infrastructure projects like pipelines, even use the emergency powers if necessary.

00:46:10.820 And then just like two days later, he's on French CBC saying that he would never do that.

00:46:14.100 He would never force a pipeline on Quebec.

00:46:15.840 Never, never, never.

00:46:17.220 Total contradiction.

00:46:18.640 Media is okay with that.

00:46:19.620 Next, he said that he was offered a cabinet position in the Harper government, that Harper tried to recruit him as finance minister.

00:46:27.180 Well, Harper's former director of communications, Dmitry Soudis, basically just said that didn't happen.

00:46:32.540 Okay?

00:46:32.700 So, you know, yet another example of Mark Kearney exaggerating.

00:46:37.420 Then he says that he claimed that he was the one that came and helped Paul Martin, Prime Minister, Liberal Prime Minister, balance the budget, the budget that was balanced all the way back in 1995.

00:46:47.740 Well, it turns out he didn't even live in Canada at that point.

00:46:50.100 He lived in Hong Kong working for Goldman Sachs.

00:46:52.280 He didn't come back and he didn't start working for the Canadian Civil Service until the very, very, very end of Paul Martin's time in office.

00:47:02.080 Next slide, he says that he had resigned from all of his positions, all of his board positions.

00:47:07.840 He says, I have resigned from all of my board positions, full stop.

00:47:12.080 This was on January 16th, 2025.

00:47:14.600 I think we have a little clip of that.

00:47:15.720 Let's play that.

00:47:16.260 I have resigned all my positions, I've resigned all my positions, full stop, all in for Canada.

00:47:29.720 Full stop, all in for Canada.

00:47:31.780 Whoops, a few days later, the National Post is reporting that it's not actually the case, that they spoke with numerous organizations that Kearney had been affiliated with,

00:47:40.980 and that he remains involved in at least five of these different organizations.

00:47:46.940 Juno News follows up and points out that, for instance, Mark Kearney's name and face was still active on a group called the Global Carbon Marketing Utilities page.

00:47:57.720 Mark Kearney was still listed as a co-chair of that organization up until the weekend.

00:48:02.720 I think after we put our story up, they tried to take that down and wipe it.

00:48:06.280 But again, examples of him not doing what he says, you know, just the tip of the iceberg.

00:48:13.820 He also said, of course, sort of the most famous example at this point of him just not being honest with Canadians.

00:48:19.480 He said that he had nothing to do with Brookfield Asset Management's decision to leave Canada and relocate to the United States.

00:48:25.600 And yet we found out that he actually wrote a letter urging shareholders to vote in favor of it.

00:48:32.240 And the only reason he wasn't there was just a technicality because a technical vote happened a few days after he had resigned.

00:48:38.160 But basically, the decision was already made.

00:48:41.080 I mean, again, like there's just nonstop.

00:48:43.140 He was out there claiming that Canada supplies almost all of the semiconductors to the United States, saying that we do.

00:48:48.520 The vast majority, it turns out, were like a very, very small percentage of it.

00:48:52.380 He said that he helped save Canada during the financial crisis in 2008.

00:48:56.480 And Stephen Harper, the prime minister, came out quite strongly and basically accused him of taking credit for the late Jim Flaherty and the role that Jim Flaherty paid.

00:49:07.360 He's the one that made the tough choices, the tough calls.

00:49:10.020 Mark Carney was lurking in the background.

00:49:11.420 But to say that Mark Carney was the one that saved Canada is absolutely insulting to the conservatives who did the hard work, who made the tough decisions, who had to face an electorate that wasn't necessarily happy about this.

00:49:23.480 So Carney just has this crazy habit of taking credit for all kinds of things that it turns out he didn't actually do.

00:49:32.260 And the biggest concern to me, Sean, is that this is all happening.

00:49:35.960 I just came up with nine examples in the past few months.

00:49:39.520 And yet this is not the news that Canadians are getting.

00:49:41.860 Canadians aren't seeing this information.

00:49:43.720 They're not learning these facts because the legacy media is doing a complete disservice by trying to paint Mark Carney as a knight in shining armor swooping in to save Canada from yet another crisis.

00:49:57.120 Yeah.

00:49:58.400 I don't know what to add to it, honestly.

00:50:01.420 Like, you see a guy who's willing to do whatever he can to gain power, and that person scares me.

00:50:08.160 I'm not a fan of most politicians, not because I say politicians, not because of a single person, just because of what getting into those offices does to people.

00:50:19.260 There's a, you know, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts.

00:50:23.720 Absolutely, I think, is the saying.

00:50:25.640 And anyone willing to lie that much to get in, and it does not faze him, and he will not take questions from alternative media to registered media.

00:50:39.880 Like, this has been, like, we're having the same conversation we've been having now for at least four years, if not five, and I'm just new to it.

00:50:49.080 So maybe it's been 20, for all I know.

00:50:51.320 You know, when I sit and talk to Chris Sims about some of these things, this isn't new.

00:50:55.300 So, although to some it might be shocking, this is just more the game plan they've been doing.

00:51:03.160 You know, like, from my new eyes to politics, and Candice, you've been staring at this a lot longer than I have.

00:51:10.640 Is it a new idea to say one thing in English and a different thing in French?

00:51:16.060 I think the answer is no.

00:51:17.160 Is it a new idea to travel to Western Canada and go, pipelines are great, we can't wait, and then go back to Quebec and say, we'll never build one.

00:51:25.520 No, it isn't.

00:51:26.900 What's different is we finally have media, like, just blossoming all over this country.

00:51:33.760 It's starting to point it out.

00:51:35.580 And then with, you know, once again, people can love and hate Elon Musk, but him taking over Twitter, and now Facebook changing directions as well.

00:51:44.600 Well, this messaging isn't staying siloed.

00:51:48.460 It's starting to spread across so that you can see the contradictions all over the place.

00:51:54.160 And so he's a scary human being, right?

00:51:55.900 I mean, like, I can't imagine having a full-blown guy connected to the globalist agenda that has been in play in front of us, and just in front of me for my short time of staring at it.

00:52:07.980 It's unnerving.

00:52:09.200 I keep reiterating that.

00:52:10.820 So none of it, it just makes me laugh, because if I'm sitting anywhere listening to this, and you're like, I haven't heard those nine things.

00:52:17.320 It's like, well, just go do, like, 10-minute dive into Mark Carney and realize what he's saying to people right now, and that should unnerve everybody.

00:52:25.740 And my hope, you know, the mainstream media in the States positioned it that there was no way Donald Trump was going to win the election.

00:52:34.720 They positioned it that way, and then he won.

00:52:38.740 And I haven't quite figured this out about Canada yet, and maybe you have an opinion on this, is we're staring at this, and they're positioning it the same way other countries have done on a leader that they obviously want.

00:52:51.480 And my only question, I guess, to you is, does that represent what the eastern population of the world of Canada actually thinks?

00:53:03.460 Or is it kind of like the States, where they're telling a story, getting everybody worked up, and the voter turnout on election day, whenever that happens, will tell and paint a different story?

00:53:13.340 What do you think, Candace?

00:53:14.340 I have a feeling that you're right.

00:53:16.260 I think that there is some interest in Mark Carney and that the polls are starting to pick that up because he's new and because he's painted as this person who comes into crises and fixes things, right?

00:53:27.220 And I think that on a surface level, Canadians, especially older Canadians who still are plugged in, unfortunately, to CBC and Legacy Media, they have that impression.

00:53:35.640 But when you look beyond that and you see the issues facing Canadians, like just this issue of immigration in the GTA, like I don't talk to anybody from any community, right?

00:53:46.720 Even immigrant communities, even people who came themselves, first-generation Canadians, they don't like what they see.

00:53:53.500 They don't like what has happened under the Trudeau Liberals.

00:53:56.620 And I think that that is something that remains incredibly strong.

00:54:00.420 Now, Sean, we're going to continue this conversation over at JunoNews.com.

00:54:04.560 We're going to cut off the show on X, on YouTube, and on Facebook.

00:54:08.900 And for everyone who wants to come on and hear the rest of the show, we're going to talk about some spicy issues, including the latest with the transgender issue, which seems to be totally different in the United States than it is in Canada.

00:54:19.880 It's like Canada is still stuck in this woke dystopia while the Americans have finally moved back towards common sense.

00:54:26.580 So we're going to continue that all over at JunoNews.com.

00:54:29.840 I hope you will join us.

00:54:34.560 I hope you will join us.
