00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Candice Malcolm, and this is The Candice Malcolm Show. I hope everyone is having a great
00:00:07.080 day so far. I want to say a special thanks to Chris Sims for guest hosting. Yesterday was a
00:00:12.240 great episode. If you haven't seen it already, I urge you to go over and check it out. Chris
00:00:16.840 talks about the rising cost of living in Canada, the inflation crisis and how it impacts everyday
00:00:22.940 families across Canada. We don't spend enough time zeroing in on that topic. So even though
00:00:28.480 Mark Carney might be out there today negotiating trade deals and sounding more like a responsible
00:00:33.880 grown-up leader, the reality is that he still champions the policies that have destroyed our
00:00:40.080 economy, that have put inflation at a pace that is just totally unmatched. Our country is falling
00:00:45.280 apart in so many ways, and he doesn't really seem to have a serious plan to address so many of these
00:00:51.180 issues. We're going to get to a lot of that today, but today's the last day of the G7, thankfully. So
00:00:56.860 all of the glowing press on the world elites making big decisions in our own backyard will come to an
00:01:04.400 end. I want to go through a little bit of that coverage, but I want to start with some of our own
00:01:09.420 exclusive reporting from Juno News. So my colleague and co-founder, Kian Bexty, was over at some of the
00:01:16.900 G7 protests yesterday. And let me just tell you, folks, this is just despicable. This is the kind of
00:01:23.980 sickening display that makes me feel like Canada is not just on the decline, but frankly, that we've
00:01:29.480 lost our country, that Canada's lost the plot, and that Canada doesn't really mean anything anymore.
00:01:34.520 And so I'm talking about these Kalistani protests against Modi. So the prime minister of India was
00:01:40.940 invited to join these G7 meetings. G7 is the group of seven, the biggest seven economies in the world.
00:01:46.840 India is not one of those countries, but India is such an important player in the world that
00:01:51.040 that Mark Carney invited him to come for a good reason. But there are a bunch of yahoos out in 1.00
00:01:58.240 Western Canada, well, I guess all over the country, that really don't like Modi. They don't like the
00:02:04.740 fact that he was invited. They want to basically import their own ridiculous ethnic politics into 0.88
00:02:10.480 Canada. They have successfully done so. And so I just want to play this clip of Kian. He's at one of
00:02:16.260 these protests. Just note the violent imagery, right? The signs with Modi in the crosshairs,
00:02:23.460 with a bullseye on his forehead, right? Like a direct call for the assassination of the Indian 1.00
00:02:28.700 prime minister. The violent chants yelling, kill Modi, right? Like this isn't part of a normal
00:02:34.460 democratic discourse, right? These are fringe lunatics who have imported their wild terroristic
00:02:42.180 policies into Canada. And we just sort of treat them with kid gloves. We mainstream it. It's no
00:02:47.640 big deal. We shrug it off. We ignore it. We shouldn't ignore this, folks. This is a big deal.
00:02:52.220 It is a serious problem in Canada. These people shouldn't be in our country. They're not loyal
00:02:56.740 to Canada. They don't care about Canada. In fact, all they care about is their dream ethnostate in 0.97
00:03:02.620 India. Well, I have a news for you. India is not interested anymore. This is like a uniquely 1.00
00:03:06.600 Canadian issue now. These people came to Canada because they fled India in the 80s and they brought
00:03:13.460 all their tensions with them. And India has moved on and these people have not. And it is just an 0.91
00:03:18.040 absolute embarrassing display. Anyway, here is Kian Bextie reporting from the G7.
00:03:27.140 Kian Bextie here in Calgary outside of a protest for the G7 as India's prime minister Modi is about to
00:03:33.620 arrive in this city to begin talks with G7 leaders. They're not part of the G7 India themselves, but they
00:03:40.300 were invited. And here, Calistani extremists in this city, likely many of them local, are staging a 0.83
00:03:47.780 protest with this sign here. They're actually all the way down the road, down this main drag in downtown
00:03:54.440 Calgary with a target over the face of democratically elected prime minister of India. And these extremist
00:04:03.480 protesters behind me, you can hear them chanting, repeating, kill Modi, kill Modi, kill Modi. And
00:04:10.220 the viewers and spectators of the protest say politics like that somehow justifies it, saying
00:04:16.660 they're killing, kill Modi politics. I don't know what that means, but the one speaker is saying kill
00:04:20.200 Modi over and over and over again. And what's even more shocking is that police officers are here.
00:04:25.100 They actually left when I started filming. The Calgary police is aware of these signs. The Canadian
00:04:31.140 government is aware of these threats, and they are not doing anything to prevent these kinds of
00:04:36.780 threats during the G7. And frankly, all the time while these Calistani extremists continue to do what 1.00
00:04:41.420 they do constantly. And so, I mean, you can see very clearly the violent imagery against Indian Prime 1.00
00:04:47.900 Minister Naranita Modi, right? And so True North continues to report. We reached out to the Calgary
00:04:54.300 police services and we got a statement saying that it does not appear to be criminal. It doesn't appear to
00:04:59.800 be criminal. Folks, ask yourself this question. Remember the Freedom Convoy? Remember when the
00:05:03.200 truckers went to Ottawa? Could you imagine just for a second that they had images like that of
00:05:08.320 Justin Trudeau? They had pictures of Justin Trudeau with a bullet in his forehead, or they were hanging
00:05:13.300 up pictures and chanting, kill Trudeau? Just imagine for a second. Do you think that the police
00:05:18.500 services in Canada, that Ottawa police would say that it was not criminal? Of course not, right? That
00:05:22.860 would be considered political violence and threats of political violence. We know exactly how that would be
00:05:27.020 handled. And yet when it comes to these deranged lunatics who, yes, India considers these people
00:05:32.160 to be terrorists, right? They have a violent history. Even the biggest and dead, most deadly
00:05:37.500 terrorist attack impacting Canada ever was the Air India flight that was blown up and it was headed to
00:05:43.560 Canada, right? Hundreds of Canadians were killed in that crash. And that was Calistani terrorists who took 1.00
00:05:50.480 credit for it and who were found to be responsible. So the idea that these people aren't really violent,
00:05:55.420 they don't really mean anything, it's wrong, right? They're importing terrorism and terrorist politics
00:05:59.980 into our society. And we turn a blind eye. This is one of the major problems in Canada. It wasn't just
00:06:06.180 that one protest that Kian Bextie was reporting from. We also saw a large convoy of Calistani activists.
00:06:11.940 It could be seen making their way towards Calgary's municipal plaza there, again, with their flags.
00:06:19.100 The government of India considers this to be a terrorist group. This flag represents 1.00
00:06:24.100 a violent movement in India. And in Canada, it's mainstream. It's just part of the mainstream. 0.96
00:06:30.560 We allow it. Here we have a clip shared from Kirk Lubinov on X showing children, Sikh children,
00:06:38.960 kicking cutouts of Prime Minister Modi's face. Let's play that clip.
00:06:43.100 And Kirk has the caption, imagine raising your kids like this in Canada. Between the Islamic 1.00
00:07:02.400 radicalization and the Calistani radicalization, Canada has a serious growing issue of fanatics,
00:07:08.400 and they are raising their kids to be even more extremists. And with the victimhood mindset,
00:07:13.960 instead of being grateful to be in Canada, I couldn't have said it any better myself. So this
00:07:18.080 is all, of course, a sideshow to the main event. But it is, you know, this is Canada on the world
00:07:23.560 stage, right? This is what people are seeing. This is the way that our country is being represented.
00:07:28.720 We have a problem with radicals and with people, again, importing their ethnic feuds into our country.
00:07:34.820 It is an absolute disgrace. Okay, let's go to the meetings themselves, Trump and Carney. This is
00:07:40.940 sort of what everyone has been looking forward to. So here is Mark Carney, his wife, Diana Fox Carney,
00:07:46.520 welcoming President Trump to the G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alberta. So there's President Trump
00:07:54.140 in Canada shaking the Prime Minister's hand. Beautiful, scenic background there.
00:07:59.860 And this is introducing to his wife there, President Trump. And interestingly, at a pre-meeting
00:08:09.980 press conference, President Trump came right out and said, you know, not just Modi that should be
00:08:15.100 here, we should actually have Putin at this meeting to recall that it used to be called the G8 and
00:08:19.640 Russia used to be part of it until Obama made the decision to remove Russia from the G8. President
00:08:26.400 Trump came flat out and said that that was a mistake. He said, Justin Trudeau, Barack Obama
00:08:29.980 made a mistake by removing Russia from the G8. Let's play that clip.
00:08:34.580 The G7 used to be the G8. Barack Obama and a person named Trudeau didn't want to have Russia in.
00:08:43.080 And I would say that that was a mistake because I think you wouldn't have a war right now if you
00:08:46.800 had Russia in. And you wouldn't have a war right now if Trump were president four years ago.
00:08:51.660 I can see Mark Kearney caught a little off guard by that comment. But of course, you know,
00:08:56.100 the purpose of these international summits really is to have dialogue and have conversations. So
00:09:00.400 perhaps he's right that if Putin was there, he would not be in an active war that they could
00:09:05.320 have talked some sense into him and stopped that from happening. And now this was as close to sort
00:09:10.740 of explosive fireworks as we got at the G7. You know, like I said, Trump is going to dominate any
00:09:15.760 room that he's in. And so here he is. The press have a thousand questions for him on the more
00:09:21.300 burning pressing issue of the day, which really isn't about economic future, Canada's energy
00:09:26.900 area and stuff. It's just, you know, the war that's unfolding in the Middle East between
00:09:30.160 Israel and Iran. Israel strategically knocking out much of the military leadership class in
00:09:36.800 Iran in targeted strikes. That's what the press care about. That's probably where Trump's
00:09:41.080 mind is. And so here is the media just hounding the president, President Trump. And Kearney sort
00:09:48.280 of politely trying to step in saying, you know, let me exercise my role as the G7 chair here,
00:09:53.580 trying to stop the madness that was the press room. I actually think Kearney did a pretty decent
00:09:59.360 job here as best he could to try to deescalate things. But, you know, Trump is going to be Trump
00:10:04.600 and he's going to dominate. So here is probably the most amusing clip you'll see from the G7,
00:10:10.720 which is Kearney trying to control a room that just frankly can't be controlled
00:10:14.200 with President Trump. Let's play that clip.
00:10:21.820 Now, what has actually come out of the G7? Honestly, more than I expected. I will say,
00:10:40.900 usually these meetings are just, you know, photo ops and fancy declarations and nothing really from
00:10:47.140 the policy side. But here we have, you know, in his reporting, Trump and Kearney have agreed to
00:10:52.480 reach a trade deal within 30 days. So we learned that Prime Minister Mark Kearney from his readout
00:10:57.560 and the G7 meeting with the U.S. President Donald Trump indicate the two leaders plan to finalize a
00:11:02.120 new trade deal within 30 days, making the first time either side has set a time frame for
00:11:07.540 negotiations. So seems like we're on the right path. Seems like that, you know, them being in
00:11:12.160 a room together, being cordial, having discussions. It seemed, from my perspective, to be good. We had
00:11:18.760 Mark Kearney commending President Trump for taking bold measures in order to change with the times and
00:11:24.320 build a better world. Let's play that clip.
00:11:25.920 Nostalgia isn't a strategy. We have to change with the times and to build a better world. And
00:11:33.040 some of you, such as you, Mr. President, have anticipated these massive changes and are taking
00:11:38.120 bold measures to address them.
00:11:41.400 And so, interestingly, Politico is reporting this interesting piece inside Kearney's private
00:11:46.920 courting of President Trump. So I'm going to read a little bit from Politico, which is a U.S.
00:11:50.860 outlet, I believe. They have a Canadian reporter. It says Canadian Prime Minister Mark Kearney has
00:11:55.580 privately courted Trump in the weeks leading up to his arrival here for the G7 summit, the world's
00:12:00.700 major industrial powers, calling and texting with the president and his allies as he tries to ease
00:12:06.860 tensions between their nations and lay the groundwork for a trade truce. The stakes are much higher for
00:12:12.800 Kearney than they are for Trump, said one person close to the White House who was granted
00:12:16.760 anonymity to discuss the leader's fragile report. He's been very deliberate and very careful, but
00:12:22.540 it's hard for any Canadian leader who's subjected to these political pressures. Kearney also carefully
00:12:26.920 crafted the summit's agenda, avoiding an explicit focus on areas like climate change in favor of
00:12:32.640 sessions addressing migration and energy more likely to encourage engagement from Trump and his team.
00:12:39.800 So that is exactly what Mark Kearney should be doing. And from my perspective and from
00:12:45.540 conservatives in Canada, we say good, right? Get rid of the hokey pokey nonsense stuff like climate
00:12:51.880 change. It doesn't really have an impact. We have a serious economic issue in our country. We are
00:12:55.740 facing massive issues, like mentioned earlier, talking about inflation, cost of living, all these
00:13:00.200 things. And you need to focus on the nuts and bolts. You need to focus on the economy and on inflation
00:13:05.780 and on trade. And of course, on energy, finding a market for our energy. That is what a prime
00:13:12.180 minister is supposed to be doing. You could imagine, though, if you were a liberal voter, if you were an
00:13:17.400 elbows up anti-American Canadian, someone who got really animated by the idea of elbows up and that
00:13:24.320 Canada was going to forge a new path and be independent, right? The kinds of people that we saw out at that
00:13:29.300 ridiculous no kings rally protests that they organized in American cities over the weekend, this idea that
00:13:35.700 somehow President Trump is acting like a king, right? Those kinds of boomer sort of left-wing voters
00:13:42.680 would be probably quite outraged to see Mark Carney being so conciliatory towards President Trump, being
00:13:50.580 so nice to him, making such efforts to talk about the issues that he cares about and not the issues
00:13:55.800 that liberals and voters of Mark Carney typically care for. Anthony Koch, writing over at the National
00:14:02.400 Post, made this point. I want to read a little bit from his article today because I thought it was
00:14:07.240 quite good. It says that the G7, Carney has his elbows way down for Trump. The pundits, voters,
00:14:13.260 and strategists who enabled the liberals' dishonest campaign must be held accountable. So this is what
00:14:18.200 Anthony writes. He says, the last federal election was not an honest conversation about Canada's place
00:14:23.280 in the world. It was performative, slick, poll-tested, and ultimately hollow. Mark Carney presented
00:14:28.740 himself as a principled adversary to Donald Trump, a steward of Canadian sovereignty who would stand up
00:14:34.740 to a dangerous and unpredictable United States. And now, just months into his premiership, he insists
00:14:39.860 the G7 is nothing without U.S. leadership. His government has resisted retaliating against American
00:14:45.620 tariffs and has expressed desire to join Trump's Golden Dome missile defense program. Just a side note,
00:14:51.480 if a conservative leader had done that, if it was Prime Minister Pierre Polyev right now,
00:14:56.400 there would be a thousand think pieces about how terrible that was as a decision and how it was
00:15:01.320 dangerous, how Canada is more closely aligning itself to America. Of course, when it's a liberal
00:15:06.240 and Mark Carney, the pundits and the fancy people are sort of either cheering it on or they're
00:15:11.760 completely silent about it. Back to Anthony's piece here. He says, let's dispose of the polite fiction.
00:15:17.220 Carney never meant what he said. The campaign rhetoric wasn't just exaggerated. It was fabricated.
00:15:22.580 There was no principled foreign policy vision, no doctrine of Canadian independence. It was
00:15:27.380 anti-American cosplay stage for a segment of the electorate that wanted to feel morally superior
00:15:32.300 to our Southern neighbors without actually having to think seriously about Canada's strategic
00:15:37.420 position in the world. I think that's exactly right. And it has been proven so, right? We saw that
00:15:43.980 during the initial meeting between Carney and Trump in the Oval Office, where Carney just sort of had to
00:15:50.580 basically kiss the ring, kneel down and accept that Trump was going to do what he was going to do.
00:15:56.200 And Trump took the opportunity to bash Carney's predecessor, Trudeau, and to make the entire
00:16:05.060 cabinet look foolish. And I'll say it wasn't as bad this time around. We didn't have a big moment
00:16:11.300 like that at this G7. But the idea is still there, right? Mark Carney will do absolutely anything and
00:16:17.680 everything he can to appease Trump, to get on his good side. That means deeper integration. That means
00:16:22.780 anything, anything that Trump wants. That's what Carney is going to talk about. I think that might
00:16:27.160 be good for the country, but certainly not good, again, for those elbows up liberals who really
00:16:32.220 expected something different, right? You know, the question sort of is, would you rather have a liberal
00:16:38.240 prime minister who campaigns as a liberal and then governs as a conservative, which seems sort of like what
00:16:43.120 Mark Carney is doing, or the opposite, right? We have Justin Trudeau, who kind of campaign is like
00:16:47.660 a centrist and sort of come across as more normal, you know, play up his family and talk about modest
00:16:54.440 deficits only. And then he would govern as a truly radical, like hard left lunatic. I would much rather
00:17:00.960 a liberal who campaigns as a liberal and then governs as a conservative. But we will see if that is truly
00:17:07.160 how Mark Carney governs. And then, folks, that's all there is, right? We had one day and suddenly,
00:17:14.160 Monday evening, we got word that Trump was leaving the summit. He was gone. Here he writes on Truth
00:17:21.660 Social. Basically, he says this, Iran should have signed the deal. I told them to. What a shame and a
00:17:27.340 waste of human life. Simply stated, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I completely agree with that. 0.98
00:17:31.340 I said it over and over again. Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran. And so his focus is 1.00
00:17:37.700 obviously what is happening in the Middle East with Israel and with Iran. And his press secretary,
00:17:43.020 Karen Levitt, just moments after that Truth Social account posted that President Trump had a great day
00:17:47.560 at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom. Much was accomplished, but much is
00:17:53.000 going on in the Middle East. President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with the heads of
00:17:57.660 state. And that's it. So Trump is gone. The rest of the meeting should be kind of quiet and
00:18:03.340 straightforward. You know, the entertaining, explosive elements of any G7 with President
00:18:09.800 Trump is whatever President Trump is saying and doing. And so I think that in some ways,
00:18:15.140 Carney kind of dodged a bullet by not having to do more bilats or more press conferences with Trump
00:18:20.480 there at risk of derailing it. But at the same time, you know, that's it. Nothing really accomplished
00:18:26.280 other than, again, the promise of a trade deal within 30 days. So interesting, interesting stuff.
00:18:33.660 And we will continue to provide reporting from G7 should anything else happen in the final
00:18:38.860 moments and hours there. We have Juneau News reporters on the ground. Well, folks, that's all
