the whole world can do banking and that's what trump's pissed off about because he's not even
00:00:07.480
allowed to bank in our country but we're allowed to bank in his country and and yeah like where's
00:00:12.880
our real value our five largest five of the ten largest companies are banks man god it should be
00:00:19.720
the potash companies it should be the oil companies it should be like we shot ourselves in the foot
00:00:25.360
and germany and european countries like i haven't been to europe in four or five years i'm almost
00:00:30.340
afraid to go to europe because i'm probably going to cry if i go to europe and see what
00:00:33.920
europe is a germany is a massively failed experiment like of their their their transition to green my
00:00:40.720
god don't it does tie into the there's been a fear of nationalism and it gets demonized very very
00:00:47.520
quickly but i love tying things back to finding like finding parallels between looking at a country as a
00:00:55.100
entity but also looking at like well what of our family units or our personal lives and you you
00:01:02.060
hear this advice of like get your house in order and get your life in order before you try to fix
00:01:06.420
clean your room that you're jordan beers and you're in yeah if you do not have the capacity to even like
00:01:13.600
hold yourself up and go through your daily lives how do you expect to contribute or save other people
00:01:19.640
and the same can be said for a country if you don't have enough nationalistic or enough of a canada
00:01:27.500
first spirit to make sure people are doing well in canada how can you be properly contributing how can
00:01:36.000
you be saving the world if we can't even save canadians first oh there are some people that say you know the
00:01:42.520
destruction that was that was um uh thrown at us is legit is intentional i get that i get that right i
00:01:50.260
mean because to your point there's there's comments that have been made by trudeau some days where i just
00:01:55.040
go holy shit like you know what it's my job as a leader to make sure to to to sort of overrule
00:02:02.080
canadians if i sorry that they're starving but the bigger picture here is we need to save the planet
00:02:07.000
and i'm i'm the moral compass and i'll make sure we still save the planet even though they're starving
00:02:12.560
like he was like when you dissect him when he's talking like that you go man you were great like
00:02:17.640
either you're completely brainwashed or you're completely compromised and there's a bigger
00:02:21.740
like i hate you know i've talked to you guys about this i've talked to this a lot of people
00:02:25.820
i hate thinking about conspiracies because i'm an engineer and i know that just you know just
00:02:31.660
just just just doing a compressor station building you know spending six million dollars building
00:02:37.240
something is stressful and i need to coordinate and i have people that lose sleep over it and i
00:02:41.560
have to convince them that we'll get through this so coordinating humans to do something is a lot of
00:02:46.900
work so when i hear people talk about these weird huge conspiracies i don't lose interest but i'm
00:02:52.640
skeptical but then i get somebody who will remind me that say well yeah but you know one or two people
00:02:58.460
can change the whole room and make uh you know germany's an example so the the litmus test is um
00:03:07.300
you you play the game of like okay if every action seems like it's the inverse of any competent person
00:03:14.940
then that's not like that's not that's not accidental that is statistics yeah yeah yeah yeah it's the it's
00:03:24.880
the um yeah when you're the only person on the train with a mask and there's 400 other people
00:03:31.520
without a mask and you say you guys are all wrong it's a pretty rare occasion where you're correct in
00:03:38.320
that assessment but yeah um yeah i i don't i don't like to believe in conspiracy theories that said uh what
00:03:46.340
are we batting on conspiracy theories in this country like we're we're we're nine for nine right now
00:03:51.080
and some of the events of the last uh decade have you know have convinced me we have uh bugs coming
00:03:58.780
in food in europe now yeah yeah so no that's a conspiracy the the the like when you say litmus test
00:04:06.120
james the the test that i like to use is uh if somebody is if somebody with a huge platform like
00:04:13.860
either funded by a media company or a you know a some special interest group or some government
00:04:21.080
official is specifically telling me that i shouldn't be talking about or saying something or
00:04:26.400
listening to people who say certain things i pretty much know that that thing was 100 correct
00:04:31.020
that's that's what i go for if somebody if somebody with influence is saying you can't say this
