00:02:11.280 be the first to first date and all this great stuff well it's not going to happen anytime soon

00:02:15.460 because we both know annexation only happens if you volunteer it or if it's done by force

00:02:20.700 which i highly doubt is going to happen anytime in the near future however okay we remember the

00:02:27.760 rhetoric that went on during the election about how where this is canada we can't do this and we

00:02:32.400 can't allow that and i'm going to say this one more time ladies gentlemen because i've engaged some

00:02:36.280 people on my threads feed who have said the convoy was nothing but a bunch of morons and creating

00:02:41.680 third world uh problems in the city of ottawa and they scared the citizens of ottawa with their

00:02:46.320 protests and i like to remind those individuals if you're listening to this show how many protests

00:02:51.600 have gone in every major city in this country okay that have talked about death to a certain group of

00:02:57.020 people how many protests have gone on in toronto montreal vancouver and other cities that have talked

00:03:03.100 about death to a certain group of people now what do the trucker convoy do they talk about death to

00:03:08.580 anybody in particular they talk about death to a certain group of people they talk about death and

00:03:13.440 destruction in regards to uh anyone's livelihood in this country other than what the government was

00:03:19.400 perpetuating down our throats for the better part of two fucking years i ask you that okay i ask you

00:03:26.920 that listen to that and think about that carefully okay think about that very very carefully and think

00:03:33.940 about the people that have put their asses on the line for this great nation okay yours truly friends

00:03:39.240 of mine buddies of mine people i fucking buried and you have the audacity to prepare the convoy to some

00:03:45.400 kind of third world upheaval what kind of arrogance do you honestly fucking live in to think about that

00:03:52.000 kind of bullshit to make that kind of comparison and i ask you this too tell me how many third world

00:03:56.820 countries have you visited recently that compare all right i'll wait

00:04:02.260 think about it the sheer arrogance of some people who sit there and just dismiss the convoy as it's

00:04:15.340 oh my goodness it was so terrible oh i was so frightened for my life now fuck off

00:04:20.720 no really fuck off like smash the bubble you live in really smash that bubble right now because it's

00:04:30.600 going to be much harder if someone has to smash it for you you know what i'm saying anyway i'm not

00:04:35.820 going to sit and get angry over this stuff all the time it's just it's it's just pathetic there's

00:04:40.680 people out there a bit younger than me and my age and even a bit older who think oh my god that place

00:04:46.040 was so scary how oh that was just so terrible how could we let that happen and yet you'll sit by

00:04:51.940 and you'll watch people throw bricks and take shots at synagogues oh that's fine that's okay oh yeah

00:04:58.700 that's that's freedom of expression right well some people's kids anyway without getting angry

00:05:04.780 so we've heard in the news that my well my last episode i talked about the whole

00:05:09.840 issue when it came to the dst the three percent uh tax they want to give to american techies

00:05:15.880 when they're working in canada per se and that includes f facebook that includes this program

00:05:20.980 that i want here the stream and everything else that we hold dear when it comes to communicating back

00:05:25.860 and forth okay and donald trump rightfully so more or less told the canadians you either smarten up

00:05:33.860 or we don't negotiate anymore now i guess the canadian government rescinded the tax they rescinded

00:05:40.160 it all because i guess there was supposed to be a big payout come yesterday and they rescinded it

00:05:45.500 because that wasn't gonna be a big payout right so make a long story short they're basically eating

00:05:50.560 crow right now ladies and gentlemen our beloved elected officials you know the elbows up crowd

00:05:56.020 elbows up the chicken dance you know that thing we used to do when we were kids okay that little fun

00:06:02.940 get-togethers they're eating it now and it's fucking glorious it is glorious why is it glorious

00:06:10.120 because a lot of us said to these people that want to elect the new liberal brand again

00:06:16.560 you know the the whole justin trudeau 2.0s right are now eating it they won't admit it in public right

00:06:25.580 it's on summer break now they got to have another holiday to recharge their batteries per se

00:06:30.740 okay but it's not working we're seeing through the bullshit that's what it is excuse me right so

00:06:39.900 this candidate let's be thankful that we still have politicians and people like-minded that want to get

00:06:46.060 down to the brass tacks and get things done as they should okay and you have to admit though the

00:06:51.480 mainstream media is starting to catch on a bit to the blarney carney isms and the whole liberal bs

00:06:58.280 okay i remember when liberalism actually meant something where you do you i do me and that's

00:07:04.280 fine no one cares right but like i said on my threads feed all these pro clenchers sitting there

00:07:10.060 saying that the convoy was all about freedom right it was dumb to want freedom is it really dumb to want

00:07:15.860 freedom is it dumb to get rid of mandates that are medically and bureaucratically and legally

00:07:21.880 unforced on you you better take this or else you better do this or else we all remember those years

00:07:29.760 to get the shot to not to get the shot to get the jibby jab to not get the jibby jab then if you don't

00:07:36.060 get the jibby jab you don't get to have this you don't get the jibby jab you don't get to have that

00:07:39.540 oh but we're not forcing it on you that's not that's not enforcing anything on you

00:07:44.100 bullshit okay bullshit and the thing is too it's amazing how how many other canucks out there

00:07:52.020 still forget what happened those years when it came to that whole issue with the jibby jab

00:07:57.360 okay i lost a job because someone didn't like my opinion on the whole thing i got tired of wearing

00:08:04.960 the mask i got tired of actually wanting to work the face covering on it just it just didn't sit

00:08:10.300 right with me and i complained about it and i got let go because you're just not the material we're

00:08:15.460 looking for right what a bunch of fucking shit right how many other people lost a job lost

00:08:22.320 opportunity because someone didn't like your opinion great experiment right that great experiment

00:08:27.360 failed because people started catching on started waking up smelling the coffee right so let us

00:10:03.580 that right i'd rather fight for this country anyway anyway i'm digressing carrying on so the

00:10:08.760 whole elbows up no pucker up right that's what it is basically mr carney talks a great game we've all

00:10:14.980 seen him try to skate with the edmonton oilers that was uneventful to say the least you know but

00:10:23.420 anyhow i'm gonna read an article here from uh the digital services tax this basically comes from

00:10:30.140 um uh where is it here that's the title economic times and i'll leave this article in my description

00:10:36.720 ladies and gentlemen for use to ponder at your leisure right and i'll just read along i need one

00:10:42.760 of those little bouncing balls there remember that when we were kids follow the bouncing ball when

00:10:46.820 they're singing a song you know i mean but i'll give the low down here on what is going on so

00:10:52.420 but uh this is just incredible so like i said this is from the economic times uh published there uh

00:11:00.140 yesterday or two days ago okay and uh just carry on here too the synopsis basically the canadian

00:11:10.880 government eliminated the digital services tax on june 29th aiming to revive trade negotiations with

00:11:16.900 the u.s uh correction with the united states prime minister mark carney and president trump

00:11:23.100 agreed to resume discussions targeting a deal by july 21st 2025 the move followed trump's threat

00:11:29.600 on tariffs on canadian goods in response to the tax on u.s tech companies now if we weren't in debt

00:11:35.660 ladies and gentlemen we would have to worry about all these taxes but hey the liberals just want to

00:11:39.480 keep spending and spending and ending at our expense right on june 29th canada's government said

00:11:44.680 it's removing this digital services tax dst to help restart trade talks the u.s as per the department

00:11:50.060 of finance canada this decision comes from prime minister mark carney blarney carney who wants to

00:11:55.440 get the best economic and security deal for canada with the u.s yeah here's a security deal step down

00:12:01.620 carney and trump agreed to restart trade talks to aim and finish the deal by july 21st the dst was first

00:12:07.900 introduced in 2020 because big tech companies like amazon were making money from canadians by not paying fair

00:12:13.580 taxes really i think canadians pay enough fair taxes the problem is it's it's hard in this country

00:12:19.520 to start anything up because of liberal rules and regulations but i'm digressing anyway canada want

00:12:24.640 to tax the big tech canada has hope for a global agreement on taxing digital companies but made the

00:12:30.120 dst in the meantime the tax was supposed to be three percent on digital services revenue from canadian

00:12:35.100 users if the firm made over 20 million per year with charges going back to 2022 right there you go

00:12:42.100 retroactive bullshit yeah let's just dig some more holes shall we as per the rotors report the first

00:12:47.840 dst payment was supposed to be collected june 30th 2025 but now that it's been cancelled finance minister

00:12:55.460 francois philippe champagne hi he's a great lawyer will now introduce a law another law to officially

00:13:02.500 remove the digital services tax act as stated by the department of finance of canada okay carney said

00:13:09.140 the government will only make deals that help canadian workers and businesses and this move

00:13:12.860 helps negotiations move forward champagne frankie bubbles added to the goal is to make canada the

00:13:18.980 strongest economy in the g7 well you want to make the economy strong in this country cut c69 get rid of

00:13:26.320 c69 get rid of c48 in fact get rid of all the bills and laws legislation where the government has to

00:13:31.700 micromanage every industry that comes in here okay trump pushed back hard and rightfully so

00:13:38.380 on friday trump had suddenly stopped trade talks calling the digital tax a blatant attack on u.s tech

00:13:43.200 companies trump wanted he would put new tariffs on canadian goods within a week if the tax stayed

00:13:48.180 according to report by rotors okay this trade fight came just weeks after a friendly g7 meeting where

00:13:53.740 both leaders said they wanted a new deal in 30 days after the announcement to the drop the tax stock

00:13:58.740 markets rose and good vibes spread to asian markets too according to the reports in 2024 the biden

00:14:04.680 administration also had complained about the tax saying it broke trade rules with the us mca deal

00:14:10.200 canada's america's second trade partner just behind mexico and one buyer of u.s goods so keeping trade

00:14:15.720 calm is important canada had avoided trump's big tariffs for april but still faces 50 duties on steel

00:14:22.100 aluminum as per the report by rotors so there you go they scrambled right

00:14:28.420 i guess you can say that uh blarney carney shit the bed the whole liberal brand shit the bed

00:14:35.540 talking a big game but they got nothing to back it up with okay we're about 40 million people how

00:14:42.000 much buying and spending power do we have compared to our american friends how much buying and spending

00:14:46.720 power do they have how much interest do they have to get to wager with people forget that okay

00:14:52.720 people forget that now the funniest thing about this whole fiasco

00:14:58.420 the funniest thing is that it had taken american president donald j trump just after he won his

00:15:03.820 election to motivate our leaders to do something about the immigration and border issues we all

00:15:09.920 remember this right y'all went down to key largo and talked about trade deals and this deal when you

00:15:15.400 know just before justin threw in the towel and he just called it quits because he just couldn't take

00:15:19.680 anymore you know what i mean oh don't you know oh for god's sakes excuse me and trump said how about

00:15:27.480 you become the 51st state oh we know you're broke but you got to work on your border you're going to

00:15:32.100 work on this you're going to work on that we're going to start you know charging the big bucks and

00:15:35.460 now what did they do they went and bought a couple helicopters and said to the world said to canadians

00:15:40.520 oh we're going to upgrade our border we're going to make sure that this is this and this is that and

00:15:44.500 everything's secure what what happened what happened it was smoke and mirrors it was just

00:15:50.860 just talk just action because they didn't have a pot to piss in actually secure the border properly as

00:15:55.820 they should have a very very long time ago okay and of course the upgrade of the military and

00:16:02.660 everything too right and of course my last episode blarney carney talked about upgrading our defense

00:16:08.240 spending to five percent gb or gdp right five percent that's going to happen by 2035

00:16:16.100 so in 10 years time we'll have a standing military that's funded by five percent of gdp really i seem

00:16:25.620 to be believing because i remember when i first got in they're talking about uh amphibious assault

00:16:30.700 carriers that would carry helicopters and those deals come and gone you know the new submarines that came

00:16:36.240 in in 2005 only one is serviceable right so all these great ideas have come and gone and upgrading

00:16:43.860 our military the problem is we have too many people with their hands in the pie hands in the pod

00:16:48.060 dictating which is good here which is good there when they should be asking the men and women that are

00:16:52.140 going to be using said equipment right but we don't see it that way they don't think that far ahead

00:16:57.780 when it comes to pragmatism and that practicality do they no of course not right because they'd rather

00:17:04.260 go elbows up but now they're fucking ass deep kissing up way to go liberal party wankers

00:17:47.500 dominion day up until may of 1982 when canada signed its constitution that was taken for granted

00:17:54.460 big time by the elected officials back in february of 2022 but i'll save that for another time right

00:18:02.700 and reflect on the joys of this country regardless of how many shitty leaders we have had

00:18:09.320 there is still an abundance of canadians out there that really care that really give a shit about

00:18:14.560 this country and i am proud i am proud to have served my country for 20 years i am proud to

00:18:20.080 serve alongside some great leaders and i'm also proud to serve alongside some real terrible people

00:18:26.080 too but that's the breaks and i'm sure everybody in public service has worked with good people and

00:18:31.740 bad people just the same okay but let's not those leaders let not those leaders reflect

00:18:37.560 on us okay they can sit and gab gab gab give word salad give word salad and word salad oh let me

00:18:45.220 answer the question this way let me answer the question that way how about you just answer the

00:18:49.860 fucking question hey can you do that is that too goddamn hard okay and all the representatives and

00:18:58.120 followers of these people who took the liberal kool-aid a little drinky drink and all of a sudden just

00:19:03.820 shook their head thinking well wait a minute i set elbows up and the cost of living is still the

00:19:08.820 same what's the problem here i just don't get it because you fell for the bullshit you fell for the

00:19:15.220 narrative just like the abundance of people that fell for the narrative back in 2021 when it came to

00:19:20.280 the old jibby jab oh if i don't get a jibby jab then i'm not gonna go be able to travel anywhere

00:19:24.980 oh i better get the jibby jab and vote for these guys because they know what's good for me right

00:19:29.280 they put you some debt that's what they did for you and i then they doubled our taxes because yours

00:19:37.000 truly is paying more taxes because the cra can't do the math and try to find legal representation to

00:19:43.140 give me a hand to give me a boost cost a lot of money something i don't really have at the time

00:19:47.560 or at the moment so i get stuck with paying extra taxes every fucking month because some collection

00:19:53.800 agency in newfoundland in the name of the cra can't do it a man right you know what i'm saying

00:19:58.980 so anyway i'm deresting here more my personal problems but it's not your problem ladies gentlemen

00:20:04.160 the problem is in this country we have leadership that lack a spine that lack balls lack integrity

00:20:09.840 and real effing vision okay real effing vision now on my tiktok feed i see a lot of people saying

00:20:18.040 they're against alberta separating oh it's just not going to happen we we just can't allow this sort

00:20:23.920 of thing to happen oh no we just can't do this oh you know this will happen if you do leave this

00:20:30.260 is going to happen if you don't leave oh my god you just can't leave then start treating alberta a

00:20:35.760 hell of a lot fucking better eastern canada because alberta's cash pays a lot of the bills

00:20:41.000 pays for a lot of the social programs pays for a lot of the little perks that help when people want

00:20:46.600 an education or get some medication here a lot of that money goes to la belle provence too okay not

00:20:53.180 so much ontario i think the last time i checked it was like 700 million dollars that goes to ontario

00:20:57.220 the rest is quebec and parts of the east coast quebec gets roughly 13 billion dollars

00:21:03.620 that's a lot of money for equalization and that's a lot of money for quebecers who say canadian oil is

00:21:10.460 dirty so if canadian oil is so dirty why do you like the benefits of it right that's like saying

00:21:17.320 oh i don't do drugs but hey i'll make some money off of it and live a good life nonetheless and i'll

00:21:22.560 just judge everyone who uses the drug right that's like a vegan working in a fucking steakhouse

00:21:27.700 you know i mean what the hell but you know this candidate let us be thankful of what this country is

00:21:36.780 and what it can be still regardless of the past 10 years or not let us be thankful that canada means

00:21:41.880 something to us it means something to me ladies and gentlemen because i fought for it i gave 20 years

00:21:50.780 and there's a part in my career where i was thinking where am i going with this job how am i going to

00:21:57.300 really function anymore as in this position and it took a war it took a dirty nasty filthy war in some

00:22:05.780 god-forsaken desert in a tiny little country called afghanistan to smarten a lot of people up

00:22:11.480 on the tactical side on the training side on the social side on the actual political side and the

00:22:18.640 outlook side of our military and for a good few years there we were respected and treated with with

00:22:24.380 dignity and then when the trudeau brand came in again not so much hey not so much it just got

00:22:32.380 ignored and forgotten again right until troops had to show up for something here troops had to show up

00:22:38.180 for something there until somebody had the idea in some office somewhere in ottawa saying let them

00:22:47.680 no so you get people fucking with things and screwing this up and screwing that up and then when we're

00:22:56.540 called upon to do something on the world stage we can't do it because we lack the equipment we lack the

00:23:01.640 personnel and they lack the intestinal fortitude to even care about what they're doing
