The Candice Malcolm Show - The legacy media doesn’t understand why Canadians don’t trust them

00:00:00.000 the legacy media in canada cannot be trusted and thankfully canadians are starting to pick up

00:00:18.780 and clue into this fact i'm canis malcolm this is a canis malcolm show and it's friday so it's fake

00:00:23.580 news friday we're doing it live this week and i am joined by my producer and journalist here

00:00:28.180 true north harrison faulkner harrison welcome to the show hi candace thanks for having me once again

00:00:33.700 well you know it's great to have you and i know you and andrew lawton filled in

00:00:39.280 last week and this week is actually going to be my last episode of fake news friday for the summer

00:00:45.420 and for probably much of the fall as viewers know i am about to have a baby so i'm about to

00:00:50.660 take a whole bunch of time away to be with my family and to be with the new little one and you

00:00:55.860 know the thing about having a baby when you have two other kids is that you end up having to spend

00:01:00.760 a lot of time with the older kids to get them used to the fact that family's changing it's like

00:01:04.740 a big a big adjustment for absolutely everyone so so this will be my last show and we are going to

00:01:10.140 have fake news friday sort of spun off as a standalone show that will be hosted by harrison

00:01:15.440 faulkner and andrew lawton so really excited to see that uh continue on i think that fake news friday

00:01:21.660 is is too good to uh just stop running it i mean there's there's so much content all the time and

00:01:27.060 these journalists deserve to be called out for their recklessness for their lies for just the the

00:01:33.320 the clear division that they push in our country it's it's it's horrible and and they need accountability

00:01:39.620 you know they they're there to hold the politicians accountable but no one's holding them accountable and

00:01:43.600 so this is this is us doing our small part to uh to try to do that so looking forward to that and

00:01:49.120 and harrison i'm really pumped about your new show i i just watched the latest episode this morning i

00:01:54.960 was laughing because boy you you cover some crazy stuff on there but uh why don't you tell tell the

00:02:00.860 audience a little bit about the uh the new show and and how it's going so far yeah so for those that

00:02:06.720 don't know the name of the show is called ratioed and i've been reading some of your comments and some

00:02:11.720 people don't know what ratioed means basically what it means is when a post on social media gets way

00:02:17.720 more comments than it does like so the comments to like ratio is way off um and that's usually the

00:02:23.520 telltale sign candace when someone has really really made a mistake on twitter and they're and

00:02:27.900 really have stirred up a lot of a lot of people who are mocking them making fun of them or or maybe

00:02:33.700 getting angry at them so there's a ton of bad takes on twitter as we all know guys and and this is what

00:02:39.280 the show is all about we're trying to expose some of them laugh at some of them and and really just

00:02:43.820 trying trying to make some fun out of all the craziness we're going through uh and yeah last

00:02:48.600 the last episode yesterday was quite quite incredible because of just how insane some of

00:02:53.660 the videos were that we found that we had to cover um you know sometimes we have to cut the videos off

00:02:58.400 short because they're just that bad candace that we really can't keep it going for that much longer

00:03:02.360 because you know we want to we want to do right by the audience we don't want to put them through

00:03:06.440 some of these horrible horrible videos but nonetheless i think it's important that we

00:03:10.880 we make fun of them where we can and and the show seems to be catching on so uh you can find

00:03:15.840 ratioed on our youtube and on our other social media platforms every thursday and uh yeah it's

00:03:21.620 really it's really been fun to to start it off and looking forward to keep keeping it going well it's

00:03:27.580 it's a great it's great content and you know a lot of us can't really we don't have the stomach to

00:03:32.880 sit on uh tick tock or go through all the latest happenings on on twitter you know so much of the

00:03:38.600 media now it's it's driven from twitter it's all just kind of insider stuff that's that's rolled

00:03:43.680 up on twitter and you know it's it's really it's really a trying experience just to spend a lot of

00:03:49.260 time on the site so it's so good for you to have have the patience to do that and pull out the the

00:03:54.220 best of the worst every week as well so encourage folks to to check out ratioed it's gonna uh live

00:04:20.900 anthony fury is back to my video so lots of content lots uh to keep you informed uh throughout the

00:04:26.520 summer while i am away with my family and and harrison let's just get to it because we have a lot

00:04:32.880 a lot to cover i know you and and andrew lawton uh touched on this series of uh polling results

00:04:39.380 last week but i want i want to get into again so uh our friends over at abacus data the the sort of

00:04:44.340 liberal big l partisan liberal shop uh run by bruce anderson who's a liberal insider and david coletta

00:04:50.800 who's a pollster uh they have a new a new series of of polls that they've done and and basically you

00:04:58.700 know so the fourth one came out this week and here's the headline it says millions of canadians

00:05:01.940 believe the u.s election was stolen from trump and uh basically they they pulled 1500 canadians

00:05:09.040 online and uh what they what they determined was that millions of canadians must believe in this

00:05:14.840 um in this in this idea that the election was stolen from trump another 29 think it's possible

00:05:21.300 but aren't sure and they classify this as just like a flat-out conspiracy theory uh they look at other

00:05:26.860 at other uh questions they asked uh apparently one in five canadians think it's definitely or probably

00:05:32.980 true that 9-11 was an inside attack uh 18 percent of canadians say that that the royal family uh killed

00:05:39.540 princess diana uh so so so and and then also they have their climate change is a hoax i i first of all

00:05:47.460 the the line of questioning that they have on these is is so leading right in in the world of journalism

00:05:52.840 we call it leading like like you you can sit here and be very skeptical of the integrity of the u.s

00:05:58.120 election system very very skeptical of all of the institutions that work together to change the

00:06:03.220 rules to bury media stories to hide the hunter-biden laptop story you can look at all of those things and

00:06:09.020 say you know i'm going to draw the conclusion that the powers that be conspired to make sure that trump

00:06:14.220 wasn't elected um and and that and that's different than someone who believes that say uh you know that

00:06:20.480 that the ballots were stolen or that there was something some kind of a mass overlying conspiracy

00:06:25.680 so so so the question is just kind of vague enough that you could get people answering yes

00:06:31.320 without necessarily being a conspiracy theorist right i think there's room for disagreement even

00:06:35.920 amongst conservative circles over the extent to which the the last election in the u.s was fair

00:06:41.560 but here they are you know throwing it right out there saying that the millions of canadians believe

00:06:46.520 in these in these conspiracy theories and and you know and and then and then the other thing you do

00:06:51.860 is they layer it in so they they match up how many of these people also vote for conservatives and trying

00:06:56.740 to say like you if you're a peer poly of supporter you're way more likely um to believe in these in

00:07:02.220 these outlandish conspiracy theories trying again to sort of undermine peer poly of undermine the kind

00:07:06.740 of people who might support him and vote for him and and and to me to me i just it's so frustrating

00:07:13.080 it's it's so you know this is the fourth week in a row that we have one of these the same exact

00:07:17.180 conclusion this idea i mean come on even even the idea that one in five canadians is what a 9-11

00:07:23.040 truther i i have to say 9-11 truthers that i've spoken to and and talked to they're usually not

00:07:28.780 conservatives they're usually on the left and they are very you know anti-israel or anti george w bush

00:07:34.040 so so so it doesn't even make sense and they and of course they don't show how many of these overlap

00:07:39.000 with liberal voters or ndp voters or green voters who are probably the biggest conspiracy theorists

00:07:43.060 of all this is just this is just hackery uh masquerading as as journalism or as neutral

00:07:49.180 polling what do you think harrison well you're well candace it's exactly that which is just designed

00:07:55.000 to pin canadians against each other it's designed for the liberals to use as a way to demonize

00:08:01.480 conservatives and to especially demonize pierre poly of who is seeming to run away with the

00:08:07.060 conservative leadership race of course they tie it into who would vote for pierre poly of they of

00:08:11.860 course don't show who would vote for the liberals or who would vote for the greens it's always intended

00:08:16.800 that way and and the problem is candace is when abacus data releases these polls journalists who

00:08:22.820 should know better who can who should be able to see through this stuff in journalism school they teach

00:08:27.200 us all about polls and methodology and how it works and how it represents how it's supposed to

00:08:32.100 represent a population we see these articles popping up in the national post throughout this series of

00:08:37.120 abacus data polls the canadian press will pick it up and then of course when it gets put in the

00:08:42.800 canadian press as we've talked about week after week i find on the show it ends up getting syndicated

00:08:47.580 across the country so they're using these polls to attack canadians it's canada bashing that's what i

00:08:53.720 said last week and i hold i hold that when i when i read these these again this is just a way to

00:08:58.580 pin canadians against each other it's a way to make canadians or convince them that they are

00:09:04.060 conspiracy theorist or or try and try and basically yeah convince them that they are not you know they're

00:09:10.020 not part of the majority or or that or that some grand large number of canadians are are conspiracy

00:09:15.400 theorists it's it's disgusting stuff it's it's really the lowest of the low and and there's no

00:09:20.280 public interest behind this polling this is all designed to prop up and benefit liberals at the

00:09:25.700 expense of everyday canadians who frankly and quite quite likely because i'm not exactly sure they

00:09:31.260 don't make it clear but quite likely are not even pulled correctly how many times have we seen

00:09:35.240 polling companies like this fail to actually pull accurately fail to pull real hard-working average

00:09:42.180 canadians they end up finding the they find that they find urban centers or they find those that are

00:09:47.740 that don't really represent the population that i think is what we're looking at here and it's

00:09:52.260 disappointing that journalists aren't aren't seeing through it and knowing better well i i think it's

00:09:57.100 like one step even more devious and evil harrison because it's like bruce anderson and david coletta

00:10:02.400 look we all know this is a liberal pollster shop bruce anderson is uh sort of former journalist used

00:10:07.860 to be the host of the at issue panel or sorry a panelist of the at issue panel on cbc the sort of like

00:10:12.200 flagship obnoxious um you know andrew coin althea raj chantilly baron it used to be bruce anderson up

00:10:19.840 there as well with rosemary barton and then he he stepped back because his stepdaughter

00:10:24.740 was sort of one one of justin trudeau's like inside most trusted employees so so this is kate

00:10:31.520 purchase who is um you know this mclean's article here meet the woman who crafts justin trudeau's

00:10:37.760 image uh communication director and justin trudeau's pmo kate purchase's job is to make her boss look

00:10:44.260 good and this was back in 2018 she's no longer in this role but but still the the the point remains

00:10:50.140 that the trudeau liberals are closely aligned with this polling shop and so the idea that they are

00:10:56.600 creating this news like this is news that's just been created out of thin air they're like hey let's

00:11:01.300 go pull canadians and find out how dangerous their views are and how extreme they are and how racist

00:11:07.580 they are and how crazy it's all pre-positioning so the trudeau government can come up with their

00:11:12.700 position saying hey guys we need to internet we need to regulate the internet if we don't regulate the

00:11:16.920 internet uh look at how much more divided our society will be look at all these crazy people

00:11:21.600 there's just going to become more craziness more instability and it's it's all working in lockstep

00:11:27.340 with trudeau to uh further his policy agenda but but i think what they're doing is really really

00:11:33.140 dangerous because what they're also doing harrison is telling canadians not to trust their neighbor

00:11:38.600 not to trust their fellow compatriots saying you know that that person that you you think you're

00:11:43.660 friends with that work co-worker or someone that you see at the coffee shop every day or something

00:11:48.080 you know your friend your kid's uh parent your kid's friend's parent um these people are probably

00:11:53.960 racist they probably have a conspiracy laden world view they probably believe that the election was

00:12:00.620 stolen for donald trump they probably support donald trump we saw this this is a story that came out

00:12:04.660 last week from the same pollsters the same series legacy media claims uh 40 so so sorry the national

00:12:10.920 post headline says millions of canadians believe in a white replacement theory millions of canadians

00:12:17.740 see the same same polling company their abacus data and again they surveyed 1500 people online

00:12:24.460 and they extrapolate from that that millions of canadians must be racist must be racist and uh the

00:12:31.020 the the way that they got that theory i know you talked about this last week with andrew lawton

00:12:34.540 um but the the question was that one third of canadians believe in the so-called white replacement

00:12:39.040 theory that 37 percent of respondents representing 11 million canadians agreed with this statement this

00:12:44.320 was the statement that they were asked whether they agreed with or not there is a group of people

00:12:48.700 in this country who are trying to replace native-born canadians with immigrants who agree with their

00:12:54.940 political views okay so so the first part of that question there are a group of people in this

00:12:58.700 country who are trying to replace native-born canadians i mean that that would just be like

00:13:02.580 the immigration department right like like the group of people is the politicians the liberals who are in

00:13:07.700 power who have drastically increased our immigration levels um trying to replace native-born canadians

00:13:13.280 with immigrants who agree with their political views i mean that that's again up for interpretation

00:13:17.700 the part of this statement that that doesn't make sense with the headline harrison is it doesn't say

00:13:22.440 anything about skin color right that the question doesn't include the word white or make any mention

00:13:28.080 of a person's ethnicity or skin color but then they sort of editorialize and extrapolate to mean that

00:13:34.260 they must agree with a white replacement theory which is the racist ideology um that the buffalo

00:13:39.500 shooter used or subscribed to or pushed when he did his massacre so so so so they're taking a statement

00:13:46.040 that is sort of vaguely worded that that has some truth to it that many canadians would relate to

00:13:52.660 and then they're saying if you agree with this statement then you must agree with this white

00:13:57.500 terrorist like it's it's such a jump and it's so dishonest and again all it does is turn canadians

00:14:03.400 against each other because really you're walking down the street you think wow you know one in

00:14:08.360 three canadians is a crazy racist who supports white terrorism essentially that's what that's

00:14:14.020 what they're saying i mean it's so wild it's so irresponsible that the extent that they will go

00:14:18.840 to win an election to allow justin true to push forth his agenda like the fact that people in the

00:14:25.160 media are going along with this that this is being quoted that this is being pushed harrison i find it

00:14:29.280 i just find it like disappointing on so many levels but also truly truly dangerous uh really

00:14:36.360 really really bad stuff here what's your thought what are your thoughts completely and the headline

00:14:41.120 from the national post is is disgusting there's no other way to describe it really it's it's canada

00:14:45.720 bashing as i said and the headline should read it should read millions of canadians were tricked

00:14:51.460 into agreeing to a question designed to convince other canadians that they are racist that's what it

00:14:56.700 really should read right candace but of course this was all cooked up from the start we're going to

00:15:00.780 trick canadians we're going to we're going to make sure that we get the result we need we're going to

00:15:04.920 make sure we get the headline we need and everyone's going to come to our polling company and look at

00:15:08.920 our look at our data it's it's it's horrible and journalists should know better journalists should

00:15:14.940 know better the headline is not should not read millions of canadians it should be it should if

00:15:19.800 they should when you make such an accusation like that it should basically make it clear that it was

00:15:24.520 it was 500 people who responded to a 1500 person survey that is not you cannot tell me that that

00:15:31.680 is representative of the country and when you do that it's just it's just you're engineering a result

00:15:38.340 you're you're creating a a synthetic result that is designed to convince people like you said candace

00:15:44.740 that your neighbor is a racist that your neighbor is a conspiracy theorist it's horrible stuff and

00:15:49.720 journalists should know better but we know now that the the quality we expect of our journalists

00:15:55.480 is wrong we should we should basically be expecting you know first year level university age

00:16:01.140 writing not not professional legitimate and and respectful journalism that's just not what we're

00:16:07.660 going to get from these guys well yeah like i would see that question and say okay a third of

00:16:11.960 canadians don't agree with our immigration levels or a third of the canadians are mistrustful of

00:16:16.360 justin trudeau when it comes to his agenda behind immigration like i i wouldn't like you know try to

00:16:23.040 layer on some some commentary about race and ethnicity when that was not in the question it's

00:16:28.580 it's crazy and you know the the whole series again not to belabor it but it it's designed to point out

00:16:35.540 that canadians don't really trust our institutions i know there was other stories about how trust in

00:16:39.820 media is at an all-time low that canadians don't trust the institutions and rather than these elitists

00:16:44.740 and these experts who run these institutions who who see themselves as sort of the gatekeepers

00:16:48.820 of these institutions rather than taking pause harrison saying okay what are we doing what are we

00:16:53.700 doing wrong what are we doing that is turning canadians against us and making canadians not

00:16:58.080 trust the institutions that they used to trust instead they sort of hold a mirror back up and say

00:17:02.060 this is the public's fault like we blame the public and i mean you can see this daryl butts who

00:17:08.140 used to be justin trudeau's sort of inside man and he he was thrown under the bus over the whole

00:17:13.280 we charity scandal uh was it the we charity or was it the snc level i can't keep track i think

00:17:17.860 it was snc no sorry it was the jody wilson earlier so many scandals harrison yeah thank you

00:17:22.300 he was he was thrown under the bus uh after one of the big scandals and uh but he's still he's still

00:17:29.140 around and he's still doing dirty work for justin trudeau and he he put out on twitter something that

00:17:34.280 was kind of deranged he tried to blame true north our organization for the lack of trust in the media

00:17:40.700 so so he writes uh this thread goes a long way towards explaining why trust in the media has

00:17:45.700 fallen so precipitously in canada especially on the right great research hashtag fake news so

00:17:51.780 that's kind of funny calling us fake news and we're pointing it out on fake news friday uh no daryl

00:17:57.900 butts uh well first of all i i don't understand your point as to how true north existing and providing

00:18:05.280 an alternative perspective on things and providing a news organization uh that provides fact-based

00:18:10.620 journalism but also has a conservative editorial position uh how how that would undermine canadians

00:18:17.240 trust of the legacy media like we exist because of that we exist because canadians don't trust the

00:18:22.880 legacy media they're looking for other alternatives and true north is here we're funded entirely by

00:18:28.980 people who support our work and our journalism we're funded entirely by canadians i don't think we have

00:18:33.780 any donors from outside of canada it's all canadian people funding our work and somehow that is a sign

00:18:42.780 of explaining why trust in the media has gone like he's got he's got completely backwards right it's

00:18:47.020 like we're not the ones that are undermining trust in the media you guys are doing that all on your own

00:18:51.420 right we're just here pointing it out shining a light back on you and canadians are coming to us

00:18:57.040 instead because they want a different perspective they want more truth in the media they don't they

00:19:02.320 don't think that the media is trying to truth and then joe bus gives a link to this crazy crazy

00:19:07.760 leftist activist first of all this this crazy activist put out this twitter thread about it

00:19:12.920 it's totally unhinged it's it's not even accurate at all about true north it's not even our logo um

00:19:18.520 you know this is an anonymous bot troll who can barely write a coherent thought together on twitter

00:19:24.300 she has this long deranged twitter thread that's totally factually incorrect and it's from like

00:19:30.100 over a year ago i don't know what gerald butts is searching twitter feeds from over a year ago

00:19:35.600 trying to like expose true north for something that's like not even true at all by an anonymous

00:19:40.980 bot like and and he's calling that great research like he's he's way down in the dumpster of like

00:19:46.980 like you know quoting anonymous trolls and bots and saying this is great research has she big news like

00:19:54.020 gerald bus is so out of touch so out of control the fact that this guy has power the fact that this guy

00:19:59.220 advises a prime minister man that tells us so much about why canada is heading in the direction it's

00:20:04.700 heading well gerald butts is the puppeteer he's pulling or he was pulling the strings inside these

00:20:10.000 institutions that canadians no longer trust and you know to find that twitter thread like you said

00:20:14.820 a deranged twitter thread in which he doesn't really know how to compose tweets and makes weird

00:20:19.800 hashtags and all that he must have searched up true north because how else would you have found that

00:20:23.980 it's 13 14 months old uh it's just very bizarre candace and you know this idea that true north

00:20:29.860 is part of is pushing fake news well i just want to i just want to ask people watching this show

00:20:35.260 you won't see our editor panicking writing letters to mps and and writing at writing editorials saying

00:20:41.960 we didn't we didn't retract our stories in the convoy or we stand by reporting you won't see that you

00:20:47.000 won't see mps openly say that our reporting during the trucker convoy was false because we didn't do that

00:20:53.140 the cbc did they had to admit it they're the ones backtracking they're the ones that are always

00:20:57.140 panicking having to retract stories so the proof is in the pudding candace we're not the ones that

00:21:01.520 are misleading canadians like you said we're giving canadians the other side of the story

00:21:05.580 desperately needed other side of the story because you've got people like gerald butts and the editor

00:21:10.560 in chief of the cbc who refuse to take any blame refuse to take any responsibility for the fact that

00:21:16.860 canadians can see through everything they do now canadians know exactly that they they have a reason

00:21:22.820 why not to trust people like gerald butts and the cbc and our other institutions is because

00:21:27.020 they've proven time and time again candace that they're willing to go to any depth to back up

00:21:33.420 their friends in government they're willing to go any they're willing to go as deep as they as they can

00:21:38.040 to make sure they shine a good light on justin trudeau at the expense of canadians it's brutal

00:21:42.980 but just look look at look at what our reporting shows look at how we react to our own reporting and look

00:21:48.840 at how the cbc right now is panicking about how they're reporting misled canadians it's it's quite

00:21:53.940 obvious it's for everyone to look at yeah i mean they do it to themselves right and it's like oh no

00:21:58.440 we didn't retract the story we just changed everything about it and didn't tell you and

00:22:02.200 then when we got caught we told you like it's like okay there's a distinction without a difference

00:22:06.380 uh you know you're right that the proof is in the pudding because even you just look at our numbers

00:22:11.000 like we're pretty modest right we we don't have like a huge we don't have a 1.2 billion dollars

00:22:16.300 and subsidies from from the trudeau government we don't have must carry um rules with the crtc where

00:22:21.480 we're broadcasted across the airways we don't have all those inherent advantages we have a small team

00:22:26.420 and you know we run it that way uh we work out of our home studios or uh you know out of out of

00:22:32.820 your bedroom or your your brother-in-law's bedroom or something wherever you are harrison but i mean you

00:22:37.480 know we don't have a fancy studio like they do and yet you know when you look at the twitter

00:22:41.980 engagement that we have social media engagement the amount of times our videos are

00:22:45.600 shared and viewed on facebook and youtube and instagram like people are interested in what

00:22:50.480 we're saying and so gerald butts can sit there and retweet deranged 18 month old or 16 month old

00:22:57.240 threads about some crazy lady accusing us of using dark money and fossil fuel interests or whatever she's

00:23:03.000 saying uh but but the reality is that is not the reason why canadians don't trust the institutions

00:23:09.160 that is not the reason people aren't tuning into the cbc anymore that is not the reason

00:23:12.580 the reason that canadians are no longer trusting the institutions including the the media which

00:23:18.300 used to be trusted you know the the thing that kept us all together in canada uh the reason that

00:23:23.060 canadians are turning away and not trusting them is because of their own work and the things that

00:23:27.320 they're doing and the way they're discrediting themselves over and over again harrison i i want

00:23:31.440 to show this clip i i'm a big jordan peterson fan as as uh folks and the viewers probably know

00:23:37.100 um he he did this incredible lecture over at the hoover institution at stanford university he was

00:23:42.460 a guest on a podcast called uncommon knowledge which is really excellent i recommend if you're

00:23:47.280 have an extra hour this weekend and you're looking for some you know some some things to contemplate

00:23:52.180 and some some deep thinking um go find this video because it is it's just filled with gems from

00:23:58.020 jordan peterson i feel like he's back and stronger than ever and uh one of the things that's really

00:24:02.740 interesting is that he talks about this this very same phenomenon um that we that we're talking on

00:24:09.620 he he filmed this i think at the end of the end of april there in 2022 and i want to play uh first clip

00:24:17.640 here is jordan peterson talking to the host i can't remember the host name harrison i think you might

00:24:22.100 know peter robinson i think is his name yeah former former reagan staff writer he's he's brilliant

00:24:27.460 you said the show uncommon knowledge is great yeah i'm a big fan of the hoover institution it's

00:24:32.640 like one of the the the few uh glimmers of light in in a very dark uh academic setting in the united

00:24:39.160 states but but there at stanford university which is a pretty left-wing school on campus um they host

00:24:44.860 this this organization called the hoover institution they do great work and really really strong

00:24:50.220 thinking there but anyway so jordan jordan peterson here he's i sort of asked like you know when you look

00:24:55.940 at the trucker convoy um you see it seems like there's two totally uh differing perspectives on

00:25:03.660 what actually happened there and so you can see how the host how the interviewer uh sets it up kind of

00:25:08.800 juxtaposing what jordan peterson says versus what justin trudeau says and and you can see jordan

00:25:14.260 peterson's reaction here so let's let's play that clip right now

00:25:16.780 february protest by canadian truckers the protesting covid restrictions some of them block border

00:25:26.700 crossings some of them snarl the capital city of ottawa a quotation then a video clip here's the

00:25:33.100 quotation you in a message you taped for the protesters i'd like to commend all of you for your

00:25:40.140 diligence and work on accomplishing what you have under trying conditions and also for keeping

00:25:46.620 your heads in a way that's been a model for the entire world close quote now the clip it has to

00:25:54.060 stop the people of ottawa don't deserve to be harassed in their own neighborhoods

00:26:03.020 they don't deserve to be confronted with the inherent violence of a swastika flying on a street corner

00:26:10.860 or a confederate flag or the insults and jeers just because they're wearing a mask

00:26:22.220 that's not who canada who canadians are all right so here's here's hardly even look at him

00:26:29.900 here's the first question how can discourse

00:26:34.780 in a great democracy have become so polarized that jordan peterson and the prime minister look at

00:26:42.220 exactly the same set of events and come to opposite conclusions about them well he's lying and i'm not

00:26:50.220 so that's a big part of the that's a big part of the issue i don't believe that he ever says a word

00:26:55.980 that's true from what i've been able to observe it's all stage acting he's crafted a persona he has

00:27:04.060 a particular instrumental goal in mind and everything is subordinated to serve that why what's the

00:27:11.020 motivation uh the same motivation that generally that's generally typical of people who are narcissistic

00:27:19.340 which is to uh be accredited with moral virtue in the absence of the work necessary to actually attain

00:27:26.620 it all right from playing a role from jordan peterson just perfectly describes like like everything about

00:27:37.180 his reaction uh to justin trudeau but but it's so interesting just to see the two sort of juxtapositions

00:27:42.700 where you had jordan peterson congratulating the truckers for keeping their head for behaving for

00:27:47.820 not letting anything like a january 6 scenario happen right and and then and then at the same

00:27:53.020 time like justin trudeau just pretended that that that had happened that somehow it was inherently

00:27:57.180 violent and that you know the one guy that was probably staged that had the the flag uh that somehow

00:28:04.140 that was inherently violent or or that there was cheering against people wearing masks right it's

00:28:08.540 like you you know that you know that the opposite of that has has happened like routinely for the

00:28:13.420 last two years that if you're not wearing a mask you get jeered and you get yelled at and you get

00:28:18.140 shamed and all that stuff so it's the the the premise is really interesting that that these two events

00:28:24.380 were seen so differently interpreted so differently by these two leading canadians and then i think

00:28:29.980 i think jordan peterson just said it so perfectly there that you just just drew is lying that says it's

00:28:36.300 as simple as that he's a narcissist it's all for the pursuit of power and ego and i think so many

00:28:42.460 people i see in the comments section every time we play a video of trudeau and i i feel that too i

00:28:45.980 have a visceral reaction to the guy but hearing him talk the way he talks the way he talks down the

00:28:50.780 way he's acting and over over pronouncing words and it's just it's just it's just the most irritating

00:28:57.820 thing what do you think harrison well he he is jordan peterson is exactly right you know justin trudeau

00:29:04.380 and i think justin trudeau knows that his line of his line of attack on the convoy wasn't accurate

00:29:10.860 but he doesn't care because it's all about dividing people this is divided families this

00:29:14.940 is divided communities you know inside certain families people will see this trucker convoy as

00:29:20.860 this great national unifying moment that's the way i see it a truly special thing that i got to

00:29:25.580 live through and i got to witness with my own eyes but members of my own family see it totally

00:29:29.420 differently and i think that whole divide and conquer strategy is is real and it is used by

00:29:35.420 people like justin trudeau by these by these leaders with horrible intentions who are just

00:29:40.940 trying to push their own agenda and and you know whatever whatever happens because of that it doesn't

00:29:47.260 matter you know the ends the ends justify the means to someone like justin trudeau he knows he's

00:29:53.340 dividing canadians he knows he's telling lies he's not telling the truth about the convoy the swastikas the

00:29:58.620 confederate flags it's it's it's the worst kind of it's the worst stuff you can imagine and he

00:30:03.580 knows that's not canadian that's not what we do in canada everyone knows that it doesn't matter for

00:30:07.580 people like trudeau they're just going to divide us and they're going to do it because they want to

00:30:11.500 push their agenda and and and whatever happens because of that they don't care as long as they achieve

00:30:16.700 their own agenda it doesn't matter what it what it costs canadians it's just it's just horrible

00:30:21.180 you're right and as it goes back to the same theme as the abacus data polling it's like they're

00:30:26.300 deliberately dividing canadians putting words into their mouth making it seem like they're

00:30:30.140 horrible saying things that they didn't and they're doing it to divide a country just as a leader of

00:30:34.700 this country he was elected prime minister and the things that he does to our country are just shameful

00:30:39.260 well i want to play one more clip from this uh peterson uh lecture because i i just think it's

00:30:44.300 so spectacular he hits the nail right on the head when we're talking about losing trust in our

00:30:49.180 institutions the fact that canadians no longer have the same levels of trust particularly in the media and

00:30:54.700 government but but it's across the board in all institutions and i think peterson does a better

00:30:59.260 job than just about anyone i've heard on this subject explaining why right the the media are more than

00:31:04.380 happy to sit here and say you people you canadians uh you're destroying our country because you don't

00:31:09.740 trust us anymore and it's like that's not the problem right uh so so let's play the the clip of

00:31:16.460 jordan peterson on institutions here

00:31:20.940 so and then canadians why do canadians buy this to the degree they do and i think they're faced with

00:31:29.180 a hard choice because in my country for 150 years you could trust the basic institutions you could

00:31:33.900 trust the government didn't matter what political party was running it you could trust the political

00:31:38.140 parties right from the socialists over the conservatives the socialists were mostly union

00:31:42.700 types and they were trying to give the working class a voice and honestly so um you could trust the

00:31:49.020 the media even the canadian broadcasting corporation was a reliable source of news you none of that's

00:31:55.100 true now and so canadians are asked to make a hard choice or were in the truckers convoy situation and

00:32:01.420 the choice was well either all your institutions are almost irretrievably corrupt or the truckers were

00:32:11.180 financed by like right-wing republican americans well both of those are preposterous you might as

00:32:17.660 well take the one that's least disruptive to your entire sense of security and so i think that's what

00:32:22.940 canadians did mostly it's interesting that he says so so so he's talking about this weird what i would

00:32:29.900 call a real conspiracy theory right though the media pushes idea that the trucker convoy was not an organic

00:32:36.460 homegrown protest movement for canadians you're sick and tired of justin trudeau and these

00:32:40.940 mandates just wanted their life back um that that that couldn't be possible and therefore there must

00:32:45.820 be some shadowy figure behind the scenes they said that it was republicans in the u.s who were trying

00:32:51.340 to subvert our democracy which is such a preposterous idea right it's like why would they do that who like

00:32:57.580 like name one person right it's like name name the person who's supposedly the one orchestrating this

00:33:03.500 conspiracy and like they can't right and so so the host is like why why do canadians believe in this

00:33:09.500 and it's like you know it's easier to imagine that than than that every everything about our society

00:33:15.900 has been corrupted that you can't trust a word the prime minister says that the media is constantly

00:33:19.660 lying to you like like that's kind of like cognitive dissidence for canadians canadians are you know

00:33:25.420 trusting law abiding ordered people we're very rule abiding people and you know the idea that that

00:33:34.300 all of our institutions we corrupt is is too much i think for many to take which is why i think so

00:33:38.140 many do continue to go along with the legacy media and legacy narrative you know peterson says that that

00:33:45.180 these institutions are irretrievably corrupt uh which is i completely agree with that sentiment um but one

00:33:51.820 one thing that david coletto and bruce anderson i think accidentally revealed is that this is this

00:33:56.860 isn't like a black and white case more and more canadians are coming around to the idea that no no

00:34:03.020 it's it's not the institutions you can trust the institutions have turned on you they're

00:34:07.100 irretrievably corrupt and and that's the problem and that's why so many people i think again we're

00:34:12.780 willing to go to such great lengths to protest they were willing to put up with the unbelievable

00:34:17.500 smears against them from our prime minister from the media and why so many of us you know are looking

00:34:23.740 to alternative media and looking to alternative sources of facts because the stuff that you're

00:34:28.220 hearing from the government and and the legacy media you just absolutely absolutely cannot cannot

00:34:35.100 trust it uh here's let's move on this is a pretty amusing story uh why don't you tell why don't you

00:34:41.100 tell us about these panic buttons for mps here so we got news i think it was yeah it was a couple days

00:34:46.940 ago and the what is it the national observer or canadian press it might have been they wrote a

00:34:53.180 story about how mps are now receiving panic buttons which they're allowed to they're they're supposed to

00:34:59.660 hold on to and they can press if they're if they feel they're in danger now this is supposedly because

00:35:04.620 candace they're receiving mean tweets and and death threats online from anonymous users or or things like

00:35:11.740 that and and of course this is coming from marco mendicino a canadian who i think most people uh

00:35:18.060 quite detest at the moment because he's been caught lying and he's been used by justin trudeau to push the

00:35:24.060 emergencies order and the emergencies act and so now because he's receiving lots of mean tweets and lots of

00:35:29.260 comments on social media he has ordered a bunch of panic buttons for mps to hold on to when they go outside i mean i can't

00:35:37.660 really think of anything more emasculating uh for a a politician who's supposed to represent the

00:35:43.420 people holding a panic button whenever a constituent might come up to them and air some grievances candace

00:35:48.540 it's really really embarrassing stuff and you know i put this out on twitter because when i when i read

00:35:54.540 this story the first thing i thought about was the fact that the honor in being a politician the honor

00:35:59.980 in representing canadians has completely gone there used to be this idea that if you were if you were

00:36:05.660 you were called a liar or someone did something dishonorable as a politician not only would you

00:36:10.940 take serious issue with it not only would that person be expected to resign but as i mentioned

00:36:15.100 here in 1849 john a mcdonald challenged a an opposition politician to a duel so they put their

00:36:22.300 life on the line to defend their honor and to defend the defend basically the the institution of the house

00:36:28.540 of commons where has that honor gone imagine being a politician now holding a panic button in the

00:36:34.540 same house where where politicians used to have real honor they used to actually take the job seriously

00:36:42.220 and they used to put their life on the line because they believed in what they were doing

00:36:45.100 i think this is just a symptom candace of of how far our politics has fallen and i followed that up that

00:36:51.580 tweet up with but this you know how what year was it 2012 2011 or wherever when a terrorist stormed the

00:36:59.340 house of part the house of commons armed with a gun after killing a soldier in broad daylight

00:37:05.980 you didn't and mps had to basically shelter in place in the house of commons because a terrorist was

00:37:10.380 on the loose inside the house of commons there was not a single mp who had the who had really the the

00:37:16.380 audacity to call for a panic button they just got on with the job they did the job that canadians

00:37:21.020 asked them to do and they weren't crying and whining about mean tweets we've fallen so far i can't

00:37:26.220 imagine being a liberal mp and holding one of these lame panic buttons like i said on twitter i can't

00:37:31.740 imagine being such a loser well it's unbelievable harrison because okay part part part of the reason

00:37:38.140 that mark marco mendicino is getting all the flack is because he admitted that he hadn't told the truth

00:37:43.260 about the emergencies act and canadians were rightfully angry about that there was some rightful

00:37:47.580 indignation again an honorable politician would have resigned after misleading and and not telling the

00:37:52.940 truth about something so important as suspending our civil liberties and sort of misleading the

00:37:57.180 public as to who advised and and when and why the the other reason why there's been so much pushback

00:38:02.780 against the minister medicino is because they used the tragedy in uvalde texas to try to ban guns

00:38:09.660 right okay so so so so let's just point out a little bit of irony right here right you have

00:38:14.460 the public safety minister saying that he needs a a panic button what to call an armed police officer to

00:38:21.580 come and protect him so so or or or or an armed private security guard to protect him so when he

00:38:27.340 presses a button a person with a gun shows up to protect him and yet he is trying to take away the

00:38:33.580 guns of canadians so so are these people pro-gun or anti-gun i would love to know that i would love to

00:38:38.060 know if justin trudeau's private security detail continues to hold handguns because i presume that they

00:38:43.900 do and so in other words he's worthy of protecting his family's worthy of protecting uh but but canadians

00:38:49.820 know you can't protect your own family and then and then to the broader point uh you know i were i

00:38:54.060 do remember in 20 i think it was 2015 harrison when a deranged isis terrorist burst through the front

00:39:00.940 doors of parliament after murdering a uh unarmed soldier standing ceremoniously on guard at the tomb

00:39:07.500 of the unknown soldier a monument for the war dead in our country the terrorist shot this individual

00:39:14.940 nathan nathan nathan nathan sarilla in the back he shouted for a rock then he ran into parliament

00:39:22.380 and tried to kill the prime minister uh he didn't know where to go so fortunately thank thank lord he

00:39:28.540 didn't have success he was murdered he was killed by the sergeant of arms but there was a terrorist who

00:39:34.940 breached our parliament not too long ago harrison six seven years ago right yeah and at the time uh

00:39:42.060 prime minister stephen harper his security detail uh pushed him into safety into a closet and the

00:39:48.300 right at the left and the the media and liberal politicians mocked him and made fun of him and

00:39:54.380 said he was a coward because he was in a closet uh he he didn't walk into a closet on his own he was

00:39:59.180 pushing there for his own safety and there was an armed terrorist who had already murdered someone

00:40:03.100 on the premise right so so so obviously you know we're talking about a lot of hypocrisy here and and and

00:40:10.460 the liberals were the ones that were leading that that uh that line of attack saying that that the

00:40:16.780 conservatives were somehow cowards because they were hiding from an armed terrorist in the building

00:40:21.260 right the prime minister doesn't hold a gun he doesn't carry a gun he can't protect himself so

00:40:25.260 obviously his security was there to help him but the idea that somehow that made him a coward uh was a

00:40:32.860 little weak but again i think this just goes to broader theme of his show harrison the whole point of

00:40:37.660 the story the whole point of the media covering this and making it seem like somehow these politicians

00:40:42.780 are now facing some kind of a unique threat it's it's uniquely dangerous time for these liberal

00:40:48.060 politicians these poor precious babies it would infantilize these politicians uh is because of the

00:40:54.620 dangerous right wing right the dangerous truckers and the and the white supremacists and the violent

00:41:01.740 rhetoric that we're hearing and you know you you you hear it they're they're drumming up this sort of

00:41:07.180 like i don't even know how to describe it it's like they're trying to paint half the country as like

00:41:12.620 insurrectionists and as terrorists and as the enemy it's it's so it's so it's it's so remarkably

00:41:21.020 dangerous what they're doing and it's so it's so blatantly obvious too it's like you know they're trying

00:41:26.060 to pit you against your neighbor they're trying to pit the country against each other and we're letting

00:41:29.660 them and the media is giving this the whole nonsense a megaphone like true north you know we cover the

00:41:35.580 story just insofar as to mock these idiots but you know as as as a legacy media journalist you know to

00:41:42.380 take this seriously to say like oh these liberals they're they're they're just so precious and and

00:41:47.580 this has never happened before there's never been there's never been threats against politicians

00:41:51.260 never been death threats uh give me a break right that's that's not true but you can you can just feel

00:41:56.300 how the media and liberals are working in lockstep to basically divide the country and turn us against

00:42:02.860 each other and make us all believe um that you know the the internet is radicalizing people that

00:42:08.220 there's this dangerous right-wing white nationalist like sector militia in the country that's just gonna

00:42:14.620 what like start start killing liberal politicians like okay that's pretty deranged world view they tried

00:42:21.420 to convince canadians that they were going to overthrow the government candace and i mean you

00:42:25.500 know imagine if justin trudeau was the prime minister when that terrorist attack took place

00:42:29.820 on parliament hill trudeau would have shut the country down for a month and he would have been

00:42:33.500 in tofino or at his cottage you know hiding for about the rest of the year you know you talk about

00:42:38.380 you talk about the guns issue right i mean the the government tried to convince us that there were guns

00:42:43.260 in ottawa and in response justin trudeau ran away to his cottage to hide and he sent snipers on the

00:42:49.660 rooftops of ottawa to point their rifles at the protesters you know this this idea that that these

00:42:56.380 mps are are facing as you said some unique threat is a complete it's it's throwing gas in the fire it is

00:43:02.300 designed to rile people up it is designed to create some sort of situation i believe that and and call

00:43:08.460 me crazy but there's no other reason why you would try and convince canadians that these mps are

00:43:14.060 facing some horrible threat from mean tweets that they need to carry panic buttons around with them

00:43:18.940 it's it's ridiculous give me a break it's really it's really quite silly uh the idea of it it kind

00:43:26.140 of reminds me of like you know something you would give to your like aging grandfather like uh you know

00:43:30.460 in case they fall and you press the button to get the ambulance there it's not something that

00:43:34.220 you know uh cognitive adult human uh really really needs when you got a phone right it's like if someone's

00:43:41.500 threatening you or following your stalking you just call the police or presumably you know these mps and

00:43:46.540 these ministers have have their own protection uh it's it's so silly and again the fact that the

00:43:52.300 media take it seriously is just telling all right let's let's cover the last story here we know the

00:43:57.420 legacy media gets truly triggered by the canadian flag uh well there is an effort this year for

00:44:02.460 dominion day or canada day which happens a week today um to take back the flag so apparently the the

00:44:08.140 right tried to steal the flag from the left uh in part because they wanted to cancel canada last year

00:44:13.740 if you recall they wanted to cancel canada day they wanted to tear down all the statues of sir john a

00:44:17.660 they said cancel canada day they were so uh you know they they played up the whole narrative around

00:44:25.500 the the residential schools they didn't even want to be canadian anymore so conservatives kind of stepped

00:44:29.980 in and said well we still like our country we like canada and you saw a bit more patriotism on the

00:44:34.460 political right uh now the left is trying to take back the flag so uh why don't you tell us about

00:44:39.660 this individual in this video that he put out so what we've got here is a guy i believe who goes by

00:44:45.900 the name of stewart reynolds he calls himself a comedian i don't think he fits the bill of a

00:44:50.460 comedian which is supposed to make us laugh canis but nonetheless he considers himself to be a comedian

00:44:55.580 and he put out this this video with the intention of making us laugh and really it's just quite

00:44:59.980 embarrassing and cringy uh and he's trying to i guess start the initiative of the left to take back

00:45:07.020 the canadian flag as you said let's watch this clip and then we can we can we can pretend or try

00:45:11.820 to laugh at this horrible video but let's let's watch this clip do you want to fly the canadian flag

00:45:19.900 but don't want people to think that you're a hot tub in the streets and a freak in the tweets don't

00:45:24.700 worry now there's a solution just fly the flag canada doesn't get everything right but we're trying

00:45:32.140 the venn diagram of being canadian and done by choice does have some overlap but thankfully

00:45:37.500 it's not just two circles on top of each other so if you want to fly the maple leaf go right ahead

00:45:43.100 we know you're not a jerk eh so i just will say this there's nothing more obvious than a fake a in

00:45:51.820 a video you cannot fake that you can't you can't pretend to say a because it's so obvious that you're

00:45:56.540 just you're just trying really hard and it's just a really sad attempt candace at trying to i guess

00:46:03.420 kick start this this retaking over of the canadian flag i don't i think that's why most people don't

00:46:08.700 laugh at leftists they're just it's impossible for them to be funny well it's usually them just

00:46:13.980 hitting you over the head with their political view as you put it out on ratioed a few times that

00:46:19.100 you know comedy on the left is basically just them telling you their pronouns and demanding that you

00:46:23.980 adhere to their worldview but this this was like had all the hallmarks of like cheesy

00:46:30.060 canadiana like a 1990s beer commercial or something like that i i didn't really get the punchline but

00:46:35.420 look i i i think canada day or dominion day as i like to call it it should be an apolitical holiday

00:46:40.620 we should all put our political differences aside and try to find some unity in our country in our great

00:46:45.820 country celebrate the important things that that we've done and the contributions and not dwell on on

00:46:50.780 the sort of political differences that we've had here i guess this sort of does that although he

00:46:56.460 he takes so many hits at people who he disagrees with who he calls dumb by choice so i i i guess i

00:47:02.940 guess uh you know it's better than them canceling canada day but i don't know how much better um of course

00:47:11.100 the uh cbc didn't like this video either uh one of their reporters over in london uh tweeted the video and

00:47:19.020 just kind of reiterated the whole leftist nonsense about how flying the canadian flag is complicated

00:47:25.500 the convoy protests use the flag and and because of that you know the the flag is problematic and

00:47:32.460 racist and all all the same nonsense that we've been hearing over and over again for uh the last

00:47:39.500 year or so harrison so so they really can't help it even even when you have someone on the left trying

00:47:43.980 to say let's let's take the flag back and let's all be patriotic uh you still have the annoying

00:47:48.860 host of cbc london's morning show you know lecturing us about historical systemic racism or whatever

00:47:57.260 and uh how how you know we just can't we just can't celebrate canada because some bad things happened a

00:48:02.540 couple hundred years ago or or or something like that and therefore we should all just feel guilty

00:48:07.020 forever and and be punished for the sins of our of our grandparents or or not or not even our

00:48:11.740 grandparents if if we are the children of immigrants people who chose to come to this

00:48:15.260 country like they they can't get past their collectivized uh guilt and identity politics

00:48:20.460 they're just obsessed with so no surprise it's back again for canada this year yeah and you know

00:48:25.580 what i think the best thing you can do to really get under the skin of justin trudeau candace and people

00:48:30.780 like the cbc journalist is to be unifying behind the flag be proud of canada and hug your neighbor

00:48:37.100 regardless of their politics that's what they don't want you to do that's what trudeau doesn't want

00:48:40.780 you to do instead he wants to politicize canada day and i think the best thing we can all do is

00:48:45.180 be proud of our country put our politics aside and just for you know take a day to be be happy to

00:48:51.500 be in one of the one of i still believe to be one of the greatest countries on earth and and that i

00:48:56.220 think is the best way to stick it to people like justin trudeau and those that want to try and divide

00:49:00.380 us at the cbc well i think that's a great message to to end the show on i think i think there's still

00:49:05.500 so much to be proud of here again i have nothing else you know we we produced jordan peterson who

00:49:10.220 is one of the leading intellectuals in the world and he's helping make sense of everything and i

00:49:14.380 think you know the fact that there are still so many people out there fighting for our political

00:49:19.260 traditions fighting for our rights fighting for you know the trying to restore our institutions

00:49:25.500 instead of just blindly trusting them saying no it's not that we are trying to undermine the

00:49:29.660 institutions so we want to make them better we want to make them stronger and we want to restore

00:49:32.700 them and i think i think you're right that canadians need to unite uh what better way to

00:49:37.420 do it than over a canada day barbecue uh with your neighbors with your friends and uh that's uh we'll

00:49:44.220 leave it there i'll leave it at that um it's been such a pleasure thanks so much harrison for joining
