00:00:00.160 Freedom is something you earn every day, and that strength is something we need to reinforce.
00:00:07.100 Hi, I'm Candace Malcolm, and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.
00:00:10.380 No, Prime Minister Carney, freedom is not something you earn every day.
00:00:13.040 Freedom is something that we are born with, that we are given from God,
00:00:16.300 and not something that our government can take away.
00:00:18.400 So thank you very much for that.
00:00:20.360 All right, folks, we have a great show today.
00:00:22.520 We're going to react to the throne speech a little bit more.
00:00:25.900 We're going to show the highlights and some of the lowlights, because there was quite a bit of cringe in there.
00:00:31.540 So let's jump right into it.
00:00:33.020 First of all, King Charles kicked off the throne speech by delivering, yes, you guessed it, a land acknowledgment.
00:00:39.540 Let's play that clip.
00:00:40.900 I would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the unceded territory of the Algonquin and the Shinabeg people.
00:00:48.940 This land acknowledgment is a recognition of shared history as a nation.
00:00:57.420 While continuing to deepen my own understanding, it is my great hope that in each of your communities,
00:01:05.340 and collectively as a country, a path is found toward truth and reconciliation in both word and deed.
00:01:14.860 Yeah, we've had enough of the wokeness, okay? 1.00
00:01:17.280 We don't want the woke anymore. 1.00
00:01:19.380 King Charles, the whole idea that you would say it's unceded territory, you're acknowledging the claim that Canada is not a legitimate country.
00:01:27.260 So to have the king come and deliver a throne speech and right at the beginning, in the first few words, say that Canada is illegitimate, 0.74
00:01:33.760 it just makes the entire thing ridiculous. 0.97
00:01:36.320 What a spectacle.
00:01:37.000 We want people who will stand up for our country, stand up for our institutions, and not undermine every single aspect about it.
00:01:43.080 I mean, he's the royal family, for goodness sake.
00:01:44.800 This is why I said yesterday that I like the tradition, I like the idea of the monarchy that's serviced very well over the years,
00:01:51.300 but come on with these people. 0.97
00:01:53.600 This is a clown show. 0.98
00:01:55.040 Okay, next.
00:01:55.540 King Charles said the federal government would change firearm licensing and increase restrictions on firearm possessions while claiming to protect the rights of law-abiding gun owners.
00:02:07.400 I've heard this before.
00:02:08.500 This is just absolutely outrageous to have the king come and threaten our lifestyle, threaten our way of life, and try to take away guns.
00:02:17.660 Let's play that clip.
00:02:18.200 To keep communities safe, the government will hire 1,000 more RCMP's personnel.
00:02:24.860 It will change firearms licensing and strengthen enforcement of yellow and red flag laws.
00:02:35.100 Weapons licenses for those convicted of intimate partner violence and those subject to protection orders will be revoked.
00:02:43.940 Through the deployment of scanners, drones, and helicopters, additional personnel, and canine teams,
00:02:53.980 the government will stem the tide of illegal guns and drugs across the border.
00:03:00.160 It will take these steps while protecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners and indigenous people's longstanding hunting traditions.
00:03:10.180 I really don't like hearing the king make partisan slogans on behalf of the liberal government, but give me a break.
00:03:17.220 Canada has a crime problem, and the crime does not come from law-owning individuals. 0.94
00:03:22.160 So cracking down on law-abiding gun owners is ridiculous. 0.97
00:03:26.300 It is patently ridiculous nonsense, and it's just such a spectacle that the king is now involved in this nonsense. 0.98
00:03:33.820 And talk about more liberal sloganeering. 0.97
00:03:36.320 Here's King Charles defending the CBC.
00:03:39.540 The government is resolute in its determination to protect those institutions
00:03:45.620 that highlight and promote that identity around the world,
00:03:50.520 such as CBC Radio-Canada.
00:03:55.460 This is Disruptors.
00:03:57.440 No hype, no hot takes, just clear thinking.
00:04:00.260 Real trade-offs and practical insight with a focus on what matters for Canada.
00:04:04.960 Every episode, we talk to the people shaping what comes next in business, policy, technology, and the real economy.
00:04:13.240 I'm John Stockhouse.
00:04:14.620 Polo Disruptors. 1.00
00:04:15.720 And never miss an episode.
00:04:16.640 Yeah, no, don't want it, don't need it. 0.96
00:04:22.620 Absolutely ridiculous. 0.57
00:04:23.840 Okay, we have Pierre Polyev, leader of the Conservative Party, coming in and correctly saying that the throne speech was just full of slogans and lacked solutions. 0.62
00:04:33.280 So here is Pierre Polyev at a press conference saying that the throne speech had no plan to address the government's morbidly obese spending, anti-energy laws, or justice reform system.
00:04:44.500 Let's play that clip.
00:04:45.180 We did see a lot of the right slogans and political talking points, but no clear plans to get it done.
00:04:53.000 One slogan dealt with controlling government spending, but there were no specific savings to roll back the morbidly obese Liberal government's costs.
00:05:03.680 We saw promises about getting things built, but no mention of oil and gas or pipelines.
00:05:09.620 Pipelines are, of course, the thing we most need to build.
00:05:11.780 Didn't get one mention.
00:05:13.380 Nor did they mention getting rid of the anti-energy laws that have kept our resources in the ground.
00:05:18.040 They mentioned crime, but refused to say that they would repeal the Liberal catch-and-release bail law, C-75, or the house arrest law.
00:05:28.040 Laws that have allowed rampant chaos and crime to overtake our once-tranquil streets.
00:05:35.420 Sorry, I just have to say it.
00:05:36.740 Pierre Polyev and Melissa Lansman have the same hairstyle.
00:05:39.560 It looks kind of funny with them standing side by side.
00:05:41.480 Okay, next.
00:05:42.360 Pierre Polyev said that he agreed with some of the messaging behind the throne speech, of course,
00:05:46.220 because, recall, that Mark Carney stole half of the Conservative platform in his platform.
00:05:51.720 But Polyev said that only the Conservatives have a plan to deliver on that vision,
00:05:55.760 promising to table comprehensive amendments that include specific proposals on energy, crime, and spending.
00:06:01.060 Let's play that clip.
00:06:01.960 There are some messages we want to see is planned.
00:06:04.960 So we're going to put forward what we consider to be a constructive amendment
00:06:08.000 that will add very specific plans.
00:06:10.840 So, for example, the government says they want to get projects built?
00:06:14.100 Great.
00:06:14.860 We've got just the plan to do it.
00:06:16.540 Repeal C-69, the anti-development law.
00:06:18.820 Repeal the energy cap, the offshore shipping ban, the electric vehicle mandate,
00:06:23.680 and unlock the incredible investment that could bring jobs and self-sufficiency to Canada.
00:06:31.560 They say they want to reverse course on crime?
00:06:34.340 Well, we've got the plan for that, too.
00:06:35.660 We will put forward an amendment that says that they should repeal C-75, the catch-and-release bail law.
00:06:42.300 They say they want to get their spending back kind of hilariously under control after decades of overspending.
00:06:51.240 Well, we've got plans for that, too.
00:06:53.460 So our amendment will put real plans in place rather than slogans and talking points.
00:06:58.520 There we go.
00:06:59.260 Next, we had Alberta Premier Danielle Smith on X coming out with this response to the throne speech.
00:07:04.320 She writes,
00:07:05.040 Albertans need to see the federal government reset its relationship with Alberta,
00:07:08.280 starting with a clear commitment to work with Alberta to build an oil pipeline to the northwest B.C. coast,
00:07:13.340 as well as repealing the emissions cap, Bill C-69, the tanker ban, and the net-zero electricity regulations.
00:07:20.020 While it's nice to hear the Prime Minister's commitment to build projects of national significance
00:07:23.440 and position Canada as a conventional energy superpower,
00:07:27.180 there's sadly no mention in the throne speech of any substantive actions or policy repeals
00:07:31.560 to address the priorities that I have outlined to the Prime Minister on behalf of Albertans.
00:07:35.900 I look forward to hearing from the Prime Minister about these specific action items,
00:07:39.700 times of the essence, as Albertans need to see meaningful action within weeks, not months.
00:07:45.220 Absolutely.
00:07:45.700 Okay, next we have bloc leader Yves-Francois Blanchet saying that the speech was just an act of centralization
00:07:53.260 and that Mark Carney sees himself as the CEO of Canada.
00:07:56.380 Let's play that clip.
00:07:57.360 It is the most important initiative by a federal government towards centralization that I have seen or heard of.
00:08:07.200 I do not believe it is ill-intended.
00:08:10.500 I believe that Mr. Carney sees himself culturally as the CEO of Canada
00:08:16.440 and he will make decisions and he will have his decisions being implemented by everybody
00:08:22.520 and he seems to see that Quebec and provinces are merely regional offices.
00:08:29.760 Regional offices.
00:08:30.680 I like that one.
00:08:31.320 I've also heard that Mark Carney is the bankruptcy trustee of Canada
00:08:34.560 and he is here to sell us for scraps.
00:08:37.460 Next, Blanchet said that at the beginning of the campaign, the threat was Donald Trump
00:08:41.660 and during the speech, there was just no mention of Trump that he just disappeared.
00:08:46.420 Let's play that clip.
00:08:47.200 The issue at the beginning of the campaign was the threat from Donald Trump
00:08:52.480 and in the speech, there's no such thing.
00:08:56.800 It just vanished, disappeared.
00:08:59.980 Well, of course it did because it was just a ploy to win the election.
00:09:02.880 I actually agree with the idea to not have references to President Trump in our throne speech.
00:09:07.460 The throne speech is supposed to be about Canada and the governing agenda
00:09:10.140 and there's no reason to talk about the Americans in our own throne speech.
00:09:14.660 Well, President Trump renewed his offer to Canada to become the 51st state.
00:09:20.520 This is what President Trump had to say on Truth Social on Tuesday.
00:09:23.980 He writes, I told Canada, which very much wants to be part of our fabulous Golden Dune system,
00:09:28.860 that it will cost $61 billion if they remain a separate but unequal nation,
00:09:35.420 but will cost $0 if they become our cherished 51st state.
00:09:39.880 They are considering the offer.
00:09:41.840 I promise you they're not considering the offer.
00:09:45.540 Canada is not considering that.
00:09:47.400 But super interesting.
00:09:48.260 I mean, if it's going to cost $61 billion,
00:09:50.640 I mean, that would pretty much get Canada across the line of spending 2% of our GDP on defence,
00:09:55.880 which is what we're supposed to do.
00:09:57.020 But it's a heck of a lot of money to be part of something that may or may not be used ever.
00:10:02.700 So in response, CTV had this to say,
00:10:05.540 Canada is a sovereign nation, according to PMO.
00:10:07.980 PMO responds to Trump's Golden Dune offer in a statement to CTV News.
00:10:12.140 Prime Minister's office wrote,
00:10:13.040 The Prime Minister has been very clear at every opportunity, including in his conversations with President Trump,
00:10:18.380 that Canada is an independent, sovereign nation and will remain one.
00:10:22.960 You're almost starting to think whether Trump and Carney are like coordinating this.
00:10:26.440 Like anytime Carney needs a bump in the polls or like a positive headline,
00:10:30.300 he just gets Trump to tweet something like this and then Carney gets to respond and be Captain Canada.
00:10:35.480 Well, in an interview on our favourite show, CBC, with David Cochran,
00:10:40.060 Cochran asked if he still thinks President Trump wants to break us so that he can own us
00:10:46.240 and just watch Carney's response.
00:10:49.600 The line you said with some frequency during the election was,
00:10:52.440 he wants to break us so he can own us.
00:10:54.840 Do you still believe that's true?
00:10:56.160 I think he's, I think the president, I won't look into his soul,
00:10:59.840 but the president is recognising, as others are, just how strong and free Canada is.
00:11:05.260 And so if you look at the speech from the throne today, as you, as you did,
00:11:09.160 this is about investing in Canada.
00:11:11.820 This is about building Canada, about making one Canadian economy out of 13.
00:11:15.880 It's about nation building projects.
00:11:17.940 All of the, each of those and those together give us much, much more than could ever be taken away by trade action.
00:11:24.060 Yeah. So he's out there saying that Canada is really, really strong
00:11:27.300 and the numbers are pointing a totally different direction.
00:11:30.260 I want to show you this story from the Toronto Sun.
00:11:34.260 Liberals allowing 1 million foreign students were costly to Canadians.
00:11:39.580 So Bank of Canada research shows that the federal Liberals' decision to allow 1 million foreign students
00:11:44.300 into the country had a significant impact in some employment sectors and cost Canadians jobs and wages.
00:11:50.200 The study confirmed a 2022 Employment Department report that foreign labour led to Canadian workers
00:11:55.780 being replaced per Blacklock's reporter.
00:11:58.560 They accounted for a larger share of workers in low-skilled occupations, replacing Canadian-born.
00:12:04.240 Workers who moved out of these jobs said the report.
00:12:07.560 This is unbelievable.
00:12:08.520 The idea that they come to Canada as students, right? 0.96
00:12:11.080 The whole idea of coming as a student means that you're supposed to be in school.
00:12:14.560 So why do they even have a visa to work?
00:12:16.160 Let me tell you.
00:12:16.700 I did an exchange program when I was in university where I went to Australia.
00:12:20.420 And when I was in Australia, my visa did not allow me to work.
00:12:23.000 I could not get a job on campus.
00:12:24.400 I couldn't work at a coffee shop because my visa was for me to go to school and be a student.
00:12:28.820 And that was the whole idea.
00:12:29.960 So the idea that people can come to Canada, pretend to go to school.
00:12:34.420 Some of them don't even go to real schools.
00:12:36.020 And then they can go in and take the low-wage jobs of Canadians. 0.99
00:12:39.340 It's so absurdly ridiculous.
00:12:41.440 And yet this government has no plan to actually change a course on this. 0.78
00:12:45.000 OK, and more from this Bank of Canada report.
00:12:48.060 This is what the Toronto Sun and Black Lives Matter report are based on.
00:12:52.020 So you can see just the growth in our population.
00:12:54.940 Look at this chart.
00:12:55.980 Canada is the highest growth country out of the G7 here.
00:13:00.400 But you can see how almost all of our population growth is due to immigration.
00:13:05.840 Nothing to do with our actual birth rate, which is alarmingly low.
00:13:09.980 Next, the contribution to annual growth.
00:13:11.860 Just look at the non-permanent residents that Canada admitted since COVID under Justin Trudeau.
00:13:17.960 It is so unbelievable that we would allow this many people to just come to our country 1.00
00:13:22.200 without any path to becoming Canadian, without any obligation to respect our laws and our customs.
00:13:28.160 And just, you know, they come and go.
00:13:30.080 They come as students.
00:13:30.920 They actually take jobs.
00:13:32.100 It's really quite something how immigration has had this effect on Canada.
00:13:37.080 Further to Mark Carney's idea that Canada is strong.
00:13:39.660 Hudson Bay, the iconic Canadian company, is the latest and last casualty of the Trudeau government,
00:13:47.100 the liberal government.
00:13:48.080 Hudson Bay is terminating 8,000 employees, firing them, and closing all of its stores.
00:13:53.440 Ezra Levan on X aptly wrote,
00:13:55.260 The Hudson Bay has been around since 1670.
00:13:58.180 It survived the British, American, and French revolutions, Napoleon, two world wars,
00:14:02.040 the Great Depression, the Great Recession, and 9-11.
00:14:03.720 But it could not survive the Trudeau Kearney liberal government.
00:14:08.200 How sad.
00:14:09.240 Very, very sad.
00:14:10.320 And apparently part of the Hudson Bay company is being bought out by a Chinese investor.
00:14:16.760 How perfectly metaphoric of our country.
00:14:20.880 I want to continue on the topic of Rebel News.
00:14:23.840 So Rebel News' reporter, Alexa Levoire, bumped into a cabinet minister, former cabinet minister,
00:14:29.320 Ahmed Hussain, who just absolutely refused to even raise her, answer her questions,
00:14:35.800 address her concerns.
00:14:37.440 And he just slowly says, you're not a journalist.
00:14:39.520 Stop pretending to be one.
00:14:40.900 Okay, folks, the rebel is like the mirror image of the CBC.
00:14:44.260 So just imagine for a second that this was a CBC reporter and this was how Pierre Polyev
00:14:48.480 or one of the conservative MPs or shadow ministers dealt with the CBC.
00:14:53.040 It would be like a national outrage, right?
00:14:54.960 But these liberal cabinet ministers, these liberal MPs, just feel such disdain towards
00:15:00.200 Canadians and non-legacy media reporters.
00:15:03.560 It's really quite something to see.
00:15:05.480 Let's play that clip.
00:15:06.260 Any word, mister, about the Israeli government warning?
00:15:09.480 I don't talk to Rebel News now.
00:15:11.460 You're not a real truth.
00:15:12.260 It's not real news.
00:15:13.100 Leave us alone.
00:15:13.680 It's not real news.
00:15:14.600 I'm sorry.
00:15:15.260 I'm sorry.
00:15:16.420 Do you believe that public servants should be accountable?
00:15:20.400 Leave me alone.
00:15:21.340 Do you believe on the freedom of press?
00:15:24.960 Do you believe on freedom of the press?
00:15:27.160 You're not a real journalist.
00:15:28.440 Stop pretending to be one.
00:15:30.040 I would love to see a conservative say that to someone from the CBC.
00:15:33.860 Just so rude.
00:15:34.720 So much disdain. 0.99
00:15:35.520 Just like, get away from me, you pesky little peasant. 1.00
00:15:38.460 You're not a real journalist. 0.99
00:15:39.760 Go away.
00:15:40.440 Leave us alone.
00:15:41.440 Unbelievably rude.
00:15:42.220 Just bad manners all around.
00:15:43.960 And, you know, you could just say no comment.
00:15:46.180 You could just ignore her.
00:15:47.240 Or you could actually engage and do what politicians are supposed to be with the press, which is be held accountable and answer some questions.
00:15:53.140 Instead, just total arrogance.
00:15:55.500 All right.
00:15:56.020 And we're going to end the show on what I think is a bit of a positive note.
00:15:58.940 I've told you before that I love the Make America Healthy Again movement, the Maha movement.
00:16:03.480 Well, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. or RFKJ, he was sort of the leader of the movement.
00:16:07.440 And then he merged together with President Trump, endorsed him.
00:16:10.420 So it was Maha and MAGA.
00:16:11.800 And here we have, and then he was appointed to the Health and Human Services as the secretary.
00:16:17.220 Well, today he had a big announcement.
00:16:19.260 He announced that today the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule.
00:16:27.840 Bottom line, it's common sense and good science.
00:16:29.880 We are now one step closer to realizing POTUS's promise to make America healthy again.
00:16:34.200 And there he is with NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya.
00:16:37.240 I love that guy.
00:16:37.960 And FDA Commissioner Marty Makari.
00:16:40.540 This is excellent.
00:16:41.440 I'm sorry, but one of the things that just drives me absolutely crazy in Canada is that they still recommend this thing to children, right?
00:16:47.360 Even during COVID, we know that children weren't the ones that were getting very sick and getting very ill from COVID.
00:16:52.680 So the whole idea that they had to have this, it never made any sense.
00:16:56.400 And can I just say that for me as a mom, it made me doubt the entire immunization schedule.
00:17:02.160 The fact that that was in there, it just didn't seem right to me from everything that I read, everything that I understood about the COVID illness itself plus the vaccine.
00:17:10.320 So some common sense, a step in the right direction.
00:17:13.200 I don't really have a lot of hope that Canada will follow suit, but you never know.
00:17:17.520 And I think that this is very good for the world to make it all healthy again.
00:17:21.060 Time for Canada to have a make Canada healthy again.
00:17:23.860 Move it.
00:17:24.160 All right, folks.
