The Candice Malcolm Show - Trudeau lashes out and blames Canadians for his failures

00:00:00.000 Justin Trudeau continues to divide the country, lash out at the unvaccinated, and blame everybody

00:00:05.420 but himself for the latest lockdowns. I'm Candace Malcolm, and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.

00:00:13.860 Hi, everyone. Thank you so much for tuning into the podcast. And so today I'm going to focus

00:00:18.840 on our prime minister and the way that he is handling himself during what is the latest round

00:00:24.660 of lockdowns. It's like it's two years all over again. We're back to 14 days to flatten the curve.

00:00:29.620 And rather than have a prime minister who is leading the way, inspiring Canadians, trying

00:00:34.680 to justify and explain the situation, and really just showing his competence and his compassion

00:00:40.200 for his fellow countrymen during this difficult time, instead of acting like a normal person

00:00:45.100 and a responsible leader that you would want during a pandemic, Justin Trudeau instead is 0.61

00:00:49.960 basically acting like a spoiled brat. He's acting like a baby, and he continues to blame everybody

00:00:55.140 but himself, particularly as we've seen over and over again since the election, really

00:00:59.540 before then. But his rhetoric and his hatred and his anger towards the unvaccinated is just

00:01:05.700 out of control right now. It's like the volume is up at 100%, more than 100%, and he is just

00:01:11.920 really becoming unhinged. So here is the latest example. On Wednesday during a briefing, this

00:01:17.820 is what Justin Trudeau had to say about the latest lockdowns. And here he is once again, not

00:01:22.820 just blaming the unvaccinated for the lockdowns for the pandemic as he's been doing over and 0.99

00:01:27.640 over. But now he's blaming the unvaccinated for the fact that Canada's healthcare system

00:01:32.580 can't handle everything that's going on. So the fact that people aren't having the proper

00:01:37.020 cancer treatment, aren't being able to have elective surgeries, all of this is because

00:01:41.280 of the unvaccinated, according to Justin Trudeau. So here is what that looked like.

00:01:45.580 When people are seeing cancer treatments and elective surgeries put off because beds are filled

00:01:53.080 with people who chose not to get vaccinated, they're frustrated. When people see that we're

00:01:59.660 in lockdowns or serious public health restrictions right now because the risk posed to all of us by

00:02:09.460 unvaccinated people, people get angry.

00:02:11.840 So as you can see, it is just so black and white for our prime minister. Everything,

00:02:16.320 everything that's happening, everything that's wrong with your life, everything that's going bad

00:02:19.380 in your life, you can just squarely place the blame on one group of people, the unvaccinated.

00:02:24.600 This is the kind of despicable othering that we see that we've been warned about throughout our

00:02:29.000 lives. Throughout history, we see examples of the sort of we versus them othering, scapegoating

00:02:34.000 one group of people, making it so that one group of people is to blame for all of society's

00:02:38.900 ills. This is what Justin Trudeau is doing. It is so reckless. It's so irresponsible.

00:02:42.780 And him as a liberal, you know, usually we hear lecturing and warnings of not doing this

00:02:47.920 from liberals, from people like Justin Trudeau. He seems to have abandoned any kind of decorum

00:02:52.760 of responsibility, any of the old things that he used to say, any of the old rhetoric that he used

00:02:57.420 to say about Canadians being, you know, a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian, any of those things.

00:03:02.420 He doesn't seem to think about that or care about that anymore, as long as he can just point the

00:03:06.940 blame on one group of people. I'll just be clear about one thing. The reason that we are locked

00:03:12.240 down right now is because of politicians, because of weak-willed politicians like Doug Ford, like

00:03:17.840 Francois Legault in Quebec, like Justin Trudeau, who can't, you know, they told us we had to get

00:03:23.660 vaccinated. They told us that vaccine mandates will allow us to keep businesses open, will allow us to

00:03:28.320 stay safe. And then even though we went ahead and did that, even though we went ahead and got most

00:03:32.360 Canadians got vaccinated, most Canadians have been abiding by the rules and showing their vaccine

00:03:36.860 passports in order to go to restaurants or bars or gyms or whatever, they're still locking those

00:03:41.800 things down. So, no, we're not being locked down right now because of the unvaccinated. We're being 1.00

00:03:46.220 locked down right now because of political will, because of the choices that have been made by our

00:03:50.440 politicians, rather than focusing on protecting the most vulnerable, keeping the elderly and people

00:03:56.140 with underlying conditions safe. Instead of that, we have this sort of blanket policy, you know,

00:04:00.760 when the only tool that you have in your tool belt is a hammer, everything starts to look like

00:04:05.340 a nail. That is exactly what's happening in our society. So, no, it's not true that the

00:04:09.400 unvaccinated are to blame. Politicians are to blame. There have been many, many reports about

00:04:14.600 long waiting lists, people dying in waiting lists because hospitals aren't focusing on keeping people

00:04:21.100 safe in terms of cancer treatment, early detection, people who have health concerns, they haven't been

00:04:26.980 able to go and see them because the hospitals are so overrun by COVID. That isn't, again, the fault of

00:04:31.720 the unvaccinated. It's the fault of our centrally planned socialized healthcare system that has a 0.91

00:04:36.660 complete lack of resources. And again, because of heavy-handed COVID policies, which have closed down

00:04:41.520 doctor's offices, limited hospitals, and because of that, people haven't been able to have sort of the

00:04:47.240 normal screening and the normal protocols when it comes to other illnesses. So, again, just really cloudy

00:04:52.820 thinking by our prime minister, a really simplistic way of just boiling it down. Rather than looking at

00:04:58.640 the system, rather than looking at Canada and some of the many flaws that we have with the institutions

00:05:02.920 in this country, particularly when it comes to the socialist-infused healthcare system that we have,

00:05:08.760 rather than having any kind of nuance, any kind of leadership, Trudeau, again, just simply turns around

00:05:13.240 and blames the unvaccinated. It's really gross. And so this all happened the same week as a video 0.92

00:05:19.300 resurfaced. This was originally from September 16th, 2021, right in the middle of the election

00:05:24.540 campaign. Justin Trudeau appeared on a French-language show. Now, we talked about this clip,

00:05:29.300 and we went through it all in an earlier episode. I think it was a Tuesday episode of the Candace

00:05:33.840 Malcolm show. But I'll play part of it again, because it just shows the anger, the sort of

00:05:38.640 derogatory attitude that Justin Trudeau has towards the unvaccinated. Again, he truly hates these people.

00:05:43.680 And these aren't like enemy combatants or a foreign state or an adversarial regime. These

00:05:50.380 are Canadians. These are our fellow Canadians who, for whatever reason, perhaps it's because

00:05:55.080 they've already had COVID and they have natural immunity. Perhaps it's because they're very,

00:05:58.240 very healthy. Perhaps it's because they've had adverse impact from previous vaccines and they

00:06:02.640 don't want to take this one. Or perhaps they're just skeptical of a big government forcing you to

00:06:08.220 make the health decision that they choose. For whatever reason it is, people who have chosen

00:06:13.760 not to get vaccinated, and Trudeau treats them like they are the enemy. So here's a little

00:06:18.860 bit of what that clip looked like.

00:06:20.180 People who are extremists, who don't believe in science, who are often misogynes, often

00:06:25.640 racistes also. It's a little group, but they take place. And there, there, there is

00:06:32.540 a choice as a leader, as a leader in the country. Est-ce qu'on, est-ce qu'on tolère

00:06:37.340 ces gens-là ou est-ce qu'on dit, bien, voyons, la plupart des gens, presque 80 % des

00:06:41.800 Québécois, ont fait ce qu'il fallait faire, se sont fait vacciner, on veut revenir

00:06:45.560 aux choses qu'on aime faire. Ce n'est pas ces gens-là qui vont nous bloquer. Maintenant,

00:06:50.180 and again, it was in French, the subtitles were there, but in case you're not watching

00:06:53.440 or you're listening and you don't understand French, what he said is, they're extremists

00:06:57.620 who don't believe in science. They're often misogynistic, also often racist. It's a small 0.94

00:07:01.580 group that muscles in. And we have to make a choice in terms of leaders, in terms of the

00:07:06.280 country. Do we tolerate these people? Or do we say, hey, most of Quebec people, 80%

00:07:11.260 are vaccinated. We want to come back to things we like doing. It's not those people who are

00:07:16.540 blocking us. Again, it's kind of weird that right in the middle of a federal

00:07:19.880 election campaign, he's talking about us, the Québécois people, instead of us, the

00:07:24.160 Canadian people. It just shows you the mindset of a French Québécois prime minister. But

00:07:29.920 regardless, again, just saying that if it was only for those 20% of the population

00:07:34.320 that is unvaccinated, everything would be back to normal. We'd be able to just go back 1.00

00:07:38.060 to doing the things we like doing. And the only thing standing between you and your freedom

00:07:41.480 are these group of people, those people, those unvaccinated people. They are all to blame. 1.00

00:07:46.380 Of course, this isn't true. The stats don't show, don't back up what Justin Trudeau is

00:07:51.200 saying here. And we know that fully vaccinated people still get COVID, fully vaccinated people

00:07:56.100 still end up in the hospital, and fully vaccinated people still end up in the ICU. So it's not the

00:08:00.500 silver bullet that Justin Trudeau proclaims it to be. Now, sure, being vaccinated helps. It helps

00:08:05.940 most people protect themselves against COVID. But it doesn't, it's not a magical cure. It's not going

00:08:11.540 to end the pandemic. And the numbers show that. So since the start of the vaccination campaign,

00:08:16.560 which was back in December 2020, here is the data from the Public Health Agency of Canada.

00:08:22.180 And here is what the data looks like for vaccinated versus unvaccinated people getting COVID. So since

00:08:28.720 the start of the pandemic, 76.8% of all COVID cases have been among the unvaccinated. So 727,000

00:08:36.440 cases. Now that still leaves a lot of room for the people who are fully vaccinated that have had

00:08:42.380 COVID. So 13% of all the COVID cases in Canada were of people who were fully vaccinated. So 122,843

00:08:50.960 cases in this country of COVID have been among people who were fully vaccinated and their 14-day

00:08:57.880 inoculation period was over. They had had both doses and they still received COVID. 5.6% of all cases,

00:09:04.260 so that's 53,000 people were partially vaccinated and another 4.6% of people were vaccinated, but

00:09:11.400 they hadn't had their 14-day period of fully inoculation. So again, basically partially

00:09:15.820 vaccinated, that's 43,000. So we're talking here about 23, 24% of all COVID cases in this country

00:09:23.420 have been among the vaccinated. So it isn't as simplistic as Trudeau explains. And you can see

00:09:29.440 the graph here showing the difference here between the hospitalization rate and death rate.

00:09:34.260 of people who are vaccinated versus unvaccinated. If you look at the data in Ontario, though, it's

00:09:38.440 pretty interesting because it almost shows a different situation. This is the current numbers,

00:09:42.320 and I'm not going to pretend that I can explain why this is so different, but I think it's worth

00:09:46.580 pointing out. So if you look at the cases of people in the hospital right now in Ontario,

00:09:52.740 look at this graph. Nearly three quarters of the people who are in the hospital right now

00:09:58.680 are either fully vaccinated, that's 1,073 cases, or partially vaccinated, that's 108. The number of

00:10:04.840 people in hospital right now who are unvaccinated is only 417 of the cases. So that shows basically the

00:10:12.020 exact opposite of what the federal numbers look like, the exact opposite of what Justin Trudeau is

00:10:16.740 saying. Now, I'm not sure if this is because it's Omicron that is really hammering Ontario right now,

00:10:21.820 and a lot of people who get Omicron are fully vaccinated, but we're told that fully vaccinated,

00:10:27.020 that the vaccinations don't cover you the same way against Omicron. But still pretty interesting

00:10:32.400 when you look down at the ICU, it's pretty much split half and half. So of the people in the ICU

00:10:37.700 right now, about 100 of them are either fully vaccinated or partially vaccinated, and 109 of them

00:10:43.460 are unvaccinated. So still more unvaccinated, but not, again, not the black and white case that

00:10:48.920 Justin Trudeau would suggest. And Justin Trudeau wasn't done with blaming and shaming Canadians

00:10:55.020 and really deflecting all the blame away from himself. You probably saw this story. It's pretty

00:11:00.080 amusing. It's all over the news right now. The Canadian media just jump on this story like it's

00:11:04.300 the biggest scandal that has ever happened to our country. Rather than holding the politicians

00:11:08.640 accountable, rather than holding Justin Trudeau and his cabinet accountable, rather than focusing in

00:11:13.160 on scandal of the people who actually have power in the society, the government, the corporations,

00:11:17.240 big pharma. Instead of doing any of that, our media are now holding a group of kids, a group of Quebec

00:11:24.200 influencers accountable for something that they did on a private chartered plane. This story is just

00:11:29.360 so ridiculous. Video captures partying passengers maskless on a Sunwing flight to Mexico. I just love 0.97

00:11:36.540 the pearl clutching here. Like, oh my goodness, they were maskless. Okay, let me just make a few points

00:11:41.280 about this story because I just, I find it so ridiculous. Okay, first of all, imagine being 20 0.72

00:11:47.840 years old right now. Imagine being a person who just finished high school, going to college, wanting

00:11:52.660 to live a normal life, have some fun, go out there and meet people and just enjoy their youth in the way

00:11:58.140 that most people have the opportunity to do. Except for that they can't because they've lived through

00:12:02.860 COVID lockdowns, everything about a normal life and normal adolescence, being able to go out and

00:12:08.340 socialize with your friends, go to parties, go out to bars, blow off some steam. All of that stuff

00:12:12.900 basically hasn't been available for this generation of people. So what do they do? They charter a private

00:12:18.020 plane to get the hell out of Canada, to go out, go have some fun, enjoy the sun, you know, go do their

00:12:24.260 thing, right? I don't judge people. I don't, I don't, this is one aspect where I'm pretty libertarian.

00:12:30.020 I think that young people should be able to have fun, especially in this case, they chartered the

00:12:34.300 flight, they're going to Mexico. They weren't even in Canadian airspace, okay? These people are just

00:12:38.420 having fun. And somehow this turned into the biggest scandal in the world. And I love the fact

00:12:43.060 that the media loves to emphasize the fact that they were maskless and they weren't socially

00:12:46.960 distancing. I can't imagine caring about this story. I can't imagine this story being something

00:12:53.660 that upsets you or bothers you, or you would think that this should be a national story. I mean,

00:12:59.100 the fact that they chartered the plane, look, when I first saw the videos, I thought, okay,

00:13:03.540 if this is a commercial flight and there's other people on board who might be feeling pretty

00:13:07.720 uncomfortable by the fact that these kids are partying, I could understand how that would be

00:13:11.400 a problem and that these people would have broken a bunch of rules. But they didn't, they chartered

00:13:15.640 the flight. It's a private flight. You can do whatever, you can't do whatever you want on a private

00:13:19.200 flight, but there's a lot more leeway. And from the videos, it doesn't look like there's anyone

00:13:23.480 like a flight attendant trying to fight back or, or it, you know, it doesn't seem like there's any

00:13:27.540 kind of a struggle on board. It seems like it was all sort of condoned and, you know, they were on

00:13:32.140 the PA system. They were just having a good time. And the fact that this is, this is a scandal is so

00:13:37.960 ridiculous. And of course, Justin Trudeau wants to chime in because it's a perfect opportunity to 0.92

00:13:42.420 deflect away from his record, deflect away from his own governance and blame someone else. In this case,

00:13:48.620 blame a bunch of Quebec influencers who are having a good time partying and, you know,

00:13:54.000 blowing off steam, going a little crazy on a flight. And so we have a Justin Trudeau jumping

00:14:00.880 into school with them and, you know, again, make it seem like somehow these kids who aren't even in

00:14:06.760 Canada, they left the country, they weren't in Canadian airspace, they are now in Mexico.

00:14:11.200 Somehow these people are responsible for the lockdowns and surging cases in Canada. It doesn't

00:14:17.540 make any sense. But here is what Justin Trudeau had to say.

00:14:20.380 I can assure you that Transport Canada is taking the situation extremely seriously. There will be a

00:14:27.640 full investigation into exactly what went on in this situation. I think like all Canadians who've seen

00:14:37.680 those videos, I'm extremely frustrated. We know how hard people have worked to keep themselves safe,

00:14:48.040 to limit their family gatherings at Christmas time, to wear masks, to get vaccinated, to do all the

00:14:55.540 right things. And it's a slap in the face to see people putting themselves, putting their fellow

00:15:04.660 citizens, putting airline workers at risk by being completely irresponsible. I can assure you that this 1.00

00:15:15.320 is a situation that Transport Canada takes extremely seriously. And we are definitely following up on

00:15:20.660 that.

00:15:21.200 It's a slap in the face. Again, I don't understand if there was just a video of a bunch of kids partying

00:15:25.800 in Mexico, it wouldn't have anything to do with Canada, even if they're Canadians. It's not a slap

00:15:29.200 in the face. They weren't putting their fellow passengers and countrymen at risk because everybody

00:15:34.080 on the plane was in the same group. Presumably they all consented to this idea that they were going

00:15:39.020 to be on a flight together, that they were going to be partying. And let me just say, when I was in

00:15:43.600 university, I went to the University of Alberta in Edmonton. I was on this part of the ski group.

00:15:48.800 We would go on different trips almost every weekend to different mountains in around Alberta and BC.

00:15:53.940 And the scene on that plane didn't look too dissimilar to the scene on a bus at the University

00:15:58.560 of Alberta going to one of these mountains. You know, we'd leave on a Friday afternoon and it was

00:16:03.280 pretty much always a party. Sometimes it was annoying that people were partying, but it was also a part

00:16:07.820 of being young. And the idea that somehow this impacts the whole country, this is something that the

00:16:11.860 prime minister needs to comment on and needs to scold these people. You know, to me, it's just so

00:16:17.540 hypocritical too. Do you think for one second the prime minister wasn't doing stuff like this when 0.93

00:16:23.920 he was in his 20s, that he wasn't out there partying? I mean, we've seen pictures of the guy

00:16:27.480 at beer gardens and partying. We all know what happened at the Kokanee Musical Festival out there

00:16:33.680 in Cranbrook when he groped a reporter. I mean, it's just so ridiculous hearing this guy, 0.94

00:16:39.320 put on his serious voice and scold a bunch of young people who weren't even in Canada at the time 0.89

00:16:44.100 for having a good time. Give me a break. Give me a break. And it gets worse because, you know,

00:16:51.360 as much as he was scolding them in English, he went even further in French. Trudeau called these

00:16:57.300 sun wind travelers idiots and barbarians in French. They're idiots and they're barbarians. Some way to 1.00

00:17:03.460 talk about your fellow Canadian there, pal. Calling young Canadians who are blowing off steam because

00:17:08.720 you've locked them down for two years, calling them idiots and barbarians. Good for you. Good 1.00

00:17:13.720 for you, Justin Trudeau. I'm sure you feel so good about yourself. Virtue signaling there and coming

00:17:19.040 down on a bunch of young people. And the funniest thing about all this is the people in those videos,

00:17:24.020 the kids, the Quebec people, they're influencers, right? Their whole job, their whole existence

00:17:27.880 is to be popular online, to get attention. That's all they want. That's all an influencer wants is just

00:17:32.720 to kind of have a video that goes viral, get a bunch of new Instagram followers. So this is all

00:17:37.440 kind of feeding into what these people want. They want fame. They want attention. They want the 0.97

00:17:42.100 clicks. And, you know, this is the media, the prime minister, this whole charade, they're giving

00:17:47.000 them exactly what they want. So even though they're coming down on these kids, the kids are actually the

00:17:51.460 winners of all this because they're getting what they want, which is attention. So we could talk about

00:17:56.100 the hypocrisy of Justin Trudeau, how he used to behave when he was in his 20s versus how he's scolding 0.64

00:18:01.400 these Quebec influencers today. But you don't even have to go back that far to see the hypocrisy 0.93

00:18:06.500 with Justin Trudeau. I mean, go back, what, a few months here, back in October 2021. Here is Justin

00:18:13.120 Trudeau in Amsterdam, partying with elites with no masks, no social distancing. Was this a slap in

00:18:18.920 the face, Justin Trudeau? You're allowed to go to a party. You're allowed to go to a bar. You're allowed

00:18:22.840 to not wear a mask and not socially distance. And hey, he's not in Canada either. But when these young

00:18:28.400 Quebec influencers do it, it's a slap in the face. It's, of course, not the first time Justin Trudeau

00:18:32.800 has done it. So here is Justin Trudeau. He's got a drink in hand. He is laughing and chumming it up

00:18:38.720 shoulder to shoulder with world elites at the G7 meeting over in the UK in June 2021. And, you know,

00:18:45.760 we saw it. We saw it throughout the entire election campaign. The election campaign basically just

00:18:50.060 featured a bunch of politicians breaking the rules that they are imposing that you follow. So back in

00:18:56.500 August 2021, Justin Trudeau dodges questions on breaking gathering limits during a packed campaign

00:19:02.580 stop. Here's what that looked like. Justin Trudeau at a huge, you know, busy election rally. So he's

00:19:08.300 allowed to be there. He's not wearing a mask. He's allowed to be hand gliding and shaking hands and

00:19:14.200 kissing babies and doing the whole election campaign stuff, you know, breaking the rules,

00:19:19.440 breaking his own social distancing rules. But again, not following the rules that he sets.

00:19:24.540 Here he is in September 2021. Trudeau breaks the law once again by ignoring Ontario's COVID

00:19:29.560 restrictions. This was over in the Toronto Sun covering a packed liberal rally in Brampton

00:19:35.240 during the election. Once again, Trudeau was packed with more than 400 people into a banquet hall,

00:19:40.420 no socially distanced, no attempts whatsoever. This was the second time Trudeau has held an event

00:19:46.100 in violation of Ontario's COVID-19 regulations while claiming to follow them. The first time was two

00:19:52.220 weeks ago in Mississauga when he was in a packed small restaurant. So once again, we see Justin Trudeau doing

00:19:57.180 this all the time. And now here he is, you know, putting on his serious face, acting like he's

00:20:02.340 completely appalled, calling them idiots and barbarians for doing basically what Justin Trudeau 1.00

00:20:07.780 has done all along. And, you know, this goes back right to the beginning of the pandemic. Recall that 1.00

00:20:12.980 back in June 2020, Justin Trudeau attended a huge so-called anti-racism, anti-Black racism march where

00:20:21.040 he went and he famously, infamously took a knee and joined the Black Lives Matter campaign right at

00:20:28.500 the time when they were trying to convince Canadians that we had to continue to shelter in place, continue

00:20:33.320 to stay inside. The 14 days to curb the spread of COVID at this point had now turned into like three

00:20:38.180 months. And there's Justin Trudeau leaving self-isolation at Rideau Cottage to attend a massive

00:20:43.680 anti-racism protest in Ottawa. And he even had his own department right talking points for him that came

00:20:51.000 from an ATIP from our friends over at Rebel News that basically he was told to say that the reason

00:20:58.200 that he skirted the COVID rules at the time was that supposedly anti-Black racism and racism against

00:21:05.180 Indigenous people and other minorities negatively affects their health and safety. That was sort of the 1.00

00:21:10.300 first glimpse that we got about how much of a farce this whole lockdown thing was, that they made

00:21:14.900 special exemptions if you were protesting for righteous causes, if you were joining the trendy

00:21:21.060 left movements there, that you were allowed to skirt COVID laws. So throughout this entire pandemic

00:21:27.000 and particularly now, what we see from Justin Trudeau is the same thing. Total hypocrisy going out of his 0.86

00:21:33.380 way to condemn and blame the unvaccinated, or in this case blame some Quebec influencers who are out

00:21:40.160 there having a good time, blaming them, not taking any responsibility for his own policies, ignoring

00:21:45.800 the fact that he too often breaks COVID rules and breaks the same standards that he is condemning

00:21:51.380 other people for breaking. Oh, when it comes to Justin Trudeau and the pandemic and his handling of this

00:21:58.080 entire thing all along, it has been rules for thee, but not for me. I'm Candace Malcolm, and this is
