we simultaneously don't have and and have a prime minister like I was actually shocked that
00:00:08.180
all the the major media outlets in Canada are referring to him as the prime minister like I
00:00:13.020
don't if it were me like I would just I think that the proper title for him should only just
00:00:19.100
be like the liberal party leader because he's I feel like you have to have a you have to be an
00:00:25.060
elected MP to be like to actually have the title of prime minister you don't have to be an elected
00:00:30.900
MP to be a leader of a party we know that for um for Nenshi in Alberta he's the leader of the Alberta
00:00:37.360
NDP but he's not uh he's not an MLA so I don't understand why we're calling him that they don't
00:00:44.020
even have the assumed confidence of the house that's the other part is it would be a different
00:00:51.580
situation that if you had a majority government with a large amount of like a good approval rating
00:00:58.000
and you swapped leaders you could by extension think that like well okay well you still have the
00:01:06.180
will of the people behind you still have a mandate yeah and we didn't and I think that's why the
00:01:12.900
like parliament still prorogued because the like you could have a vote of no confidence all these
00:01:18.560
things can happen if it returns yeah so the delaying is preventing these things and it's
00:01:25.140
drawing it out as long as possible and talking with friends and family none of this seems to phase them
00:01:30.840
this shenanigans and these are political shenanigans uh at the expense of what's best for Canadian people
00:01:40.860
these shenanigans are happening and people are somewhat justifying it these people like
00:01:48.440
didn't even know who Carney was and are surprised like oh he's on our money
00:01:54.320
this he he was ahead of the Bank of Canada and some of them don't even know that
00:02:01.700
I just I don't know how like no one in the media is pushing back on this like no one in
00:02:08.460
you know no one no political commentary in Canada is pushing back on this like
00:02:12.920
it seems crazy to me man like I feel like I honestly feel that like
00:02:16.980
countries have have had civil unrest and riots for less you know
