00:00:00.960 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. It's a beautiful 27th of August, 2022.
00:00:06.920 Coming up in the Crested Connect podcast episode, more blunders.
00:00:10.240 Yes, more federal government blunders, more social blunders, and blunders, blunders, blunders, blunders, and more bloody blunders.
00:00:16.880 Please stick around. Oh, and listener and viewer discretion is advised. See you in a bit.
00:00:25.140 Hit it, sweetheart. 1.00
00:00:26.260 Because I am hard, you will not like me.
00:00:30.260 Yes, sir.
00:00:33.620 There is no racial bigotry here.
00:00:38.600 There you are all equally working.
00:00:42.520 From Western Canada, this is the Krusty Canuck podcast.
00:00:47.300 A Canadian veteran's point of view on political, social, economic issues, and life.
00:00:53.460 Here's Krusty.
00:00:56.260 That's right, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to another episode of the Krusty Canuck podcast, episode 184.
00:01:01.660 Blunder and blunders.
00:01:03.460 Yes, sorry for the normal fancy memes here to advertise this show.
00:01:06.980 I've been away the best part of a month trying to sort some financial stuff out, work stuff, and some stuff upstairs here anyway.
00:01:15.060 So I need some time off just to get my shit together, per se, anyway. 0.94
00:01:19.540 So yes, blunders, blunders, blunders. 0.93
00:01:20.900 Now, I don't have a lot of memes, a lot of articles and everything to back this episode up.
00:01:26.260 I hope everyone's had a good summer.
00:01:28.120 I hope everyone's having a decent time.
00:01:30.240 I hope my friends out there, a few that I've talked to over the past few weeks, have found successful employment.
00:01:35.080 If so, well done.
00:01:36.360 If not, keep on trying.
00:01:37.860 I'm in your corner.
00:01:39.120 And I especially want to thank everybody who has subscribed recently.
00:01:42.200 My subscriber list has gone up a few.
00:01:44.220 So well done.
00:01:44.960 Thank you very much for subscribing to my show.
00:01:47.160 Please click, like, subscribe, share this stuff all around your social media platforms.
00:01:52.020 And I want to say a special thing to some people on the Fiverr program, Fiverr app there.
00:01:58.980 Basically, Fiverr is a place where you can go to get assistance when it comes to promotion.
00:02:03.020 Now, personally, I am getting sick and tired of certain individuals harassing me to say, oh, I'll give you this and I'll give you that, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:02:13.040 Now, if anybody on the Fiverr application sees my work and they want to help me with promotion and all that too, firstly, I'll pay attention.
00:02:23.520 Okay, there's been two situations where I've hired someone from Fiverr to give me a hand, give me some insight.
00:02:30.740 Okay, and it only proved to be, how do you say, not as an advantage for me because I ended up spending $60 on trying to get some promotion.
00:02:39.300 And the promotion I got was, how do you say, lackluster. 0.97
00:02:42.360 So, anybody, with the exception of a few people that I have hired, that I have talked to, on a personal level, the rest of you clowns out there that want to take my work and exploit it and not help me get ahead, bugger off. 0.98
00:02:59.620 Okay? 0.96
00:03:00.820 Because recently I've had people come on my Twitter, on my getter, and through my Facebook page, promise me all these wonderful things.
00:03:09.620 Okay? 1.00
00:03:09.980 I don't buy your crap. 1.00
00:03:12.360 So, there's a blunder right there. 1.00
00:03:14.120 If you're going to sell a service and sell a product, then you bloody well sell the service and the product. 1.00
00:03:20.880 You bunch of dishonest fucktards. 1.00
00:03:23.460 Pardon my swearing, but I think you get my point. 1.00
00:03:26.760 Okay?
00:03:27.660 Don't take someone's money and say, promise good service, promise good service, because I've read it all.
00:03:33.840 You do nothing but promote bots, fake accounts, and you take people's money. 0.97
00:03:38.220 And there's a lot of podcasters out there that I have talked to over these issues who have fell for the same garbage. 0.99
00:03:45.040 So, stop promoting garbage, and you won't get attitude. 0.98
00:03:49.700 Promote proper effort. 0.90
00:03:51.400 Promote a service.
00:03:52.620 Do the service.
00:03:53.940 Get it?
00:03:54.520 Because you're walking a fine line between being an actual business person or a politician.
00:04:01.300 And we all know how I feel about some politicians, don't we?
00:04:05.980 Right?
00:04:06.800 Speaks for itself.
00:04:07.700 Now, that being said, just had a moment there.
00:04:10.440 So, as the title says, 184, blunder after blunder.
00:04:13.500 So, in recent news, it's been brought to my attention by a fellow veteran and a fellow podcaster by the name of Mark Meineke.
00:04:21.360 If I'm mispronouncing it there, Mark, please correct me.
00:04:24.780 Come across a story where a veteran called up Veterans Affairs for assistance.
00:04:29.660 Now, I'll have links in the descriptions for you all to follow at your own leisure.
00:04:33.580 Okay?
00:04:34.340 But what I heard and what I read was really effing disturbing.
00:04:40.700 An individual calls Veterans Affairs, asks for assistance, and the person on the other side of the telephone, an actual case manager, recommended this person consider suicide.
00:04:57.940 Okay?
00:04:58.720 You heard it from me, ladies and gentlemen. 0.99
00:05:00.960 Recommended this person commit suicide. 0.55
00:05:03.660 Now, I've dealt with Veterans Affairs numerous times.
00:05:06.040 A lot of my fellow veterans out there have done it.
00:05:08.500 And we're all getting sick and tired of the bureaucracy.
00:05:11.060 Sign this paper.
00:05:11.920 Sign that paper.
00:05:12.680 Sign this form.
00:05:13.460 Sign that form.
00:05:14.760 Mail this in.
00:05:15.460 Wait for permission here.
00:05:16.740 Slap and tickle here. 0.95
00:05:17.680 Promise of a kiss and reach around. 1.00
00:05:19.360 And still the same old effing garbage. 1.00
00:05:22.880 Run around after run around. 0.99
00:05:24.480 And now, after I read this story and I heard this, especially from Mark himself when he was on Rebel News.
00:05:31.080 Okay?
00:05:31.520 And other videos he put out there. 1.00
00:05:33.940 It's a goddamn slap in the face again. 0.99
00:05:36.680 Now, regardless of how you personally feel about warfare and combat and conflicts, there are people I know that are still serving today that have put their asses on the line and still put their asses on the line. 0.99
00:05:49.320 And there are people in my life that are firefighters, police officers, and even some frontline responders that are more than willing to go above and beyond to pull someone out of a fire, out of a car wreck, out of damaged property.
00:06:03.120 That will take a bullet that will take a bullet that will die for this nation or die for their community or die for their family to keep people alive, to keep people safe.
00:06:13.760 Now, when I heard about this individual that works for Veterans Affairs recommending that someone do that to themselves because of depression and anxiety, then you might as well say that to everybody else that has gone through depression, especially the past three effing years with the beer bug and with the jibby jabs and with the administrations and with the fines and with the charging and with the ridicule.
00:06:43.100 Okay, what kind of professional advice is that to give somebody, okay?
00:06:48.720 What kind of professional recommends that for someone who is going through a rough time?
00:06:54.960 Now, I can understand if you are terminally ill, if you have a cancer or a disease that confines you to a wheelchair that puts you in a vegetative state or puts you in a coma,
00:07:05.680 or you as the individual, or you as the individual do not want to live your life in agony or pain, and I'm talking physical and emotional, okay?
00:07:16.380 Leave it up to the individual, but don't recommend that to someone who's reaching out and saying, hello, I need a hand.
00:07:23.900 Like, that's just well beyond insulting. 0.97
00:07:30.300 To me, that's just fucking lazy. 0.99
00:07:33.400 And personally, I think you, sir or madam, whoever you may identify, got to be fired. 0.98

00:08:51.160 I can say more is coming there, too, but that's just a start.
00:08:54.060 For some reason, Instagram is not letting me load my videos.
00:08:57.000 I don't know why, maybe because, you know, it's not pretty enough.
00:09:02.260 You know, I'm not shaking off my shirt and putting on my bikini to validate myself again.
00:09:06.580 I don't know.
00:09:07.060 What is it?
00:09:07.580 I don't know.
00:09:08.260 I don't know.
00:09:08.840 You tell me.

00:09:31.900 If you want to write me a letter or send me some swagger, I've got my mailing address there, too, in the description.
00:09:36.480 So, anyway, carrying on with more of the blunders, blunders, blunders.
00:09:39.560 Like I said, this episode, I've been away for about a month.
00:09:42.620 So, I don't have all my facts and figures, but there'll be stuff in the descriptions for you to follow in regards to the veteran issue I just talked about and in regards to Mr. Trudeau talking with the German Chancellor in regards to freaking hydrogen technology.
00:09:56.180 Okay.
00:09:58.260 So, ladies and gentlemen, I'm all for clean air.
00:10:02.480 I am all for rivers, trees, campgrounds.
00:10:06.480 I'm all for the environment being safe and sound and balanced for everybody to enjoy.
00:10:11.640 Okay.
00:10:11.960 I'm not ever going to say that humans are such a burden on this planet.
00:10:15.900 I'm not going to say animals are such a burden on this planet.
00:10:18.980 You know, but I will quote George Carlin before he passed away.
00:10:22.740 Planet's fine.
00:10:23.760 Planet's fine. 1.00
00:10:24.720 It's the people that are fucked. 1.00
00:10:26.860 Okay. 1.00
00:10:27.700 Self-explanatory.
00:10:29.060 Now, we are sitting on some natural gas in this country.
00:10:32.640 This province and Saskatchewan alike.
00:10:35.280 Okay.
00:10:35.720 I think the third largest reserve on the planet, if I'm not mistaken.
00:10:38.660 Now, in order for us to get out of debt, in order for us to pay this ridiculous debt that was brought to you by the liberal government, and I will say liberal government, and I don't really care how many libtards out there who love Justin's hair and his socks are going to intervene and say, you don't know what you're talking about. 0.97
00:10:52.600 But when I do, okay, because I have to work 50-plus hours a week to make ends meet.
00:10:59.580 My wife has to work 40 hours a week to make ends meet. 1.00
00:11:02.540 So, between the two of us, we're working 90 hours a week to keep things afloat.
00:11:07.360 So, I know what I'm talking about. 0.84
00:11:10.140 Wankers. 0.75
00:11:11.060 Okay.
00:11:13.480 Now, Justin talked to the German Chancellor.
00:11:16.580 Basically, we're going to help you with hydrogen technology because, you know, winter's coming to Europe just like it's coming to North America.
00:11:22.140 And Germans might freeze because of the deals they've made with Russia over the years.
00:11:26.460 Now, they've sanctioned Russia.
00:11:27.480 Now, there's no gas.
00:11:28.380 Now, there's no fuel.
00:11:29.100 Now, there's blah, blah, blah.
00:11:29.820 It's self-explanatory.
00:11:31.020 Now, we're sitting on a big reserve of natural gas in this country that we could very well put to market, that we could very well sell to Europe at a decent price and make lots of money here.
00:11:41.720 To cut down the national debt, to bring things to life again, to put more production, to put more people to work in the oil patch, put more people to work in the logistics patches, too, to send said fuel to said countries.
00:11:55.300 But, no, no, we've got Prime Minister and we've got his cronies backing him up on the bills like C-69, I believe, which was about gender parity and the impact of oil work on females. 0.90
00:12:07.440 When there's a lot of females I know personally that kick ass in the oil patch, by the way. 1.00
00:12:10.600 So, that myth has been debunked, right? 0.79
00:12:16.080 And other things about anti-tankers.
00:12:17.920 I think C-48 was the big bill.
00:12:19.920 We can't have tankers in our waterways because there's a few killer whales that just might not like it. 0.71
00:12:24.440 Well, those killer whales, they have good common sense.
00:12:27.380 I've never talked to one personally.
00:12:30.580 But when they hear thrusting in the water, they go elsewhere.
00:12:35.320 Okay?
00:12:35.800 That's just a thing mammals do and aquatic life does. 0.99
00:12:39.480 They hear something in the water, a vibration they don't like, they, boom, they take off.
00:12:44.700 So, basically, it's just an excuse not to get our product to market.
00:12:48.740 That's what it is.
00:12:50.120 So, this hydrogen project.
00:12:51.640 Now, I don't know about you.
00:12:53.180 I don't know about any other guys that I've talked to in the patch.
00:12:56.620 Have seen any kind of schematic or any kind of plan through a little bird's mouth or a little bird's eye view in regards to something being built.
00:13:05.080 Have you, my audience, have you heard anything about a hydrogen project being built?
00:13:08.960 I'll wait.
00:13:18.360 Exactly.
00:13:19.860 Note the sarcasm here, too.
00:13:21.920 Right?
00:13:22.500 Here's a guy, Chancellor of Germany, comes over and says, can you give us a hand with something?
00:13:27.360 Oh, we'll work together on hydrogen projects.
00:13:29.520 We'll start working on that in 2025.
00:13:32.160 Three years from now.
00:13:33.020 What do you think is going to happen in Europe in three years?
00:13:35.960 What's going to happen to Germany this winter?
00:13:37.720 What's going to happen to every country neighboring Russia this winter?
00:13:42.420 Every country that's relied on Russia for fossil fuels.
00:13:45.920 What's going to happen in this winter?
00:13:48.020 You have to cut more trees, get more coal?
00:13:51.240 Which has a terrible environmental impact, so we're told.
00:13:54.920 Right?
00:13:55.520 You have to burn things?
00:13:56.960 No.
00:13:58.140 See, as far as I'm concerned, the efforts that the Canadian government made to help Germany
00:14:01.280 was basically just handing him a hat and a coat saying, good luck.
00:14:05.640 How do you like my socks?
00:14:06.680 How do you like my hair?
00:14:09.020 That's the only thing I really got out of that story.
00:14:11.000 You know?
00:14:11.700 But you decide, ladies and gentlemen.
00:14:13.280 Like I say, if you like and hear what you see, please click like and subscribe and share this all around.

00:14:34.860 I know I sound desperate, but I want to get my subscribers up there, too.
00:14:37.960 And I like to make this podcast, at one point, a full-time commitment.
00:14:42.040 Because I have a lot of fun doing this, putting these episodes together.
00:14:44.720 And I put a lot of work into it, too, believe it or not, when it comes to acquiring this equipment,
00:14:49.440 my soundboard here, and just, you know, doing my thing.
00:14:53.040 Because I highly encourage you, my audience out there, to do your thing, too, to the best of your ability.
00:14:57.280 Just don't hit people and take their stuff.
00:15:00.340 Anyway, we're carrying on again with more blunders.
00:15:01.840 More blunders and blunders and blunders.
00:15:03.300 We've got tons of them. 0.99
00:15:04.760 So I already mentioned the Prime Minister and his bullshit with the German Chancellor, you know, promising to help Germany. 0.95
00:15:10.440 Now we've got something going on with NATO in the north, too. 0.96
00:15:13.380 Now, Canada has been warned since the 1970s to upgrade our military.
00:15:19.160 Now, personally, I think 2.5% of the GDP should go into military spending.
00:15:24.680 Now, based on my libertarian points of view, I believe anyone who wants to serve a country's army can do it by volunteering.
00:15:31.400 I don't believe in conscription.
00:15:32.760 I don't believe in drafting.
00:15:34.200 Okay? 1.00
00:15:34.520 I don't believe in that crap. 0.99
00:15:36.860 That's just me, though. 0.99
00:15:37.960 But if we're going to have a military in this country, we should do our best to look after it.
00:15:41.360 Just like every city does their best to look after their fire services or police services or their sewage services or their welfare services.
00:15:50.360 Why is it so hard for the federal government to clue in and say, okay, we've got to buy this now, get this done, and get that done in a period of maybe, let's say, a minimum of two years?
00:16:00.040 Next to impossible.
00:16:01.180 Because you have bureaucratic red tape everywhere.
00:16:03.760 You have all these boards that have to put the check in the box to verify this.
00:16:07.220 You have people that sit in these boards that have music degrees and have no idea about tactics or logistics, but because they have a special degree in music or some other gender-bending dichotomy, they make decisions on what you and I should use to protect ourselves or what's going to be used for you and I to be protected in case there's a foreign enemy that lurks around the corner. 0.99
00:16:30.660 Now, what you may believe about Russia and China, I would believe the majority of people in Russia don't want to fuck with anybody. 0.99
00:16:37.220 I believe the majority of people in China don't want to fuck with anybody. 0.99
00:16:40.720 It's just the policies and their parties that call the shots. 0.99
00:16:43.720 Kind of the same thing here with our liberal overlords that don't want to really hurt anybody, but we'll tell you what to think, what to stick in your mouth and put in your nose.
00:16:53.760 Because we really care.
00:16:55.380 Honestly, we really, really care about your feelings.
00:16:59.100 And I'd just like to remind my audience to a little advert I made last year.
00:17:02.240 This explains the Liberal Party to a F&T.
00:17:04.520 Join the Liberal Party of Canada.
00:17:09.820 We'll tell you what to think, what to do, how to wipe, how to pick your nose.
00:17:15.700 Oh, in the name of safety!
00:17:20.280 And of course, you know, the NDP is not too far off either.
00:17:23.080 Join today's NDP.
00:17:27.140 We'll keep moving the goalposts. 0.99
00:17:29.380 You don't walk the line for us, we'll call you racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, homophobic. 0.97
00:17:34.920 We look for racism in everything.
00:17:37.160 Please, join the NDP today.
00:17:39.640 And subscribe and donate.
00:17:41.520 Please, walk our line.
00:17:43.100 Thank you.
00:17:43.560 Which brings me to another blunder, too.
00:17:46.720 There was an NDP MLA out of BC who made the comment about we should get rid of indoor ice rinks because of the carbon footprint. 0.97
00:17:54.920 Now, I'm not going to mention her name, and I might give her the Polar Vortex of Bullshit Award. 0.73
00:18:00.800 I might not. 0.94
00:18:01.880 Needless to say, you have an elected official, okay?
00:18:08.660 I don't care if it's BC, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, any of it, Northwest Territories.
00:18:14.820 I don't care where you're from. 1.00
00:18:16.460 Any elected official who has the audacity to suggest that we put a stop to indoor ice rinks to save the climate is an effing moron, okay? 1.00
00:18:28.380 I actually, I'm just, woo! 0.99
00:18:34.340 Wow, some people's kids, eh?
00:18:37.960 I actually tried to read her statement without laughing hysterically. 0.86
00:18:41.140 So, I posted it on my Facebook page, and there's some clown who tried to engage me in a debate with it.
00:18:47.500 Now, I encourage all debates.
00:18:49.000 I do encourage it.
00:18:50.480 But you got to back up your points with certain facts.
00:18:53.480 Now, he tried to tell me that all these ice scrapings, or correction, he said scrappings.
00:19:00.120 Scrapping is where you're, you know, duking it out with somebody, not scraping, right?
00:19:04.200 But he said scrappings.
00:19:05.580 Scrapping used to say, he tried to convince me that all those chemicals that are in that ice every year goes outside, and it sits in the parking lot, and kids end up playing in it, and they end up getting sick.
00:19:17.200 And this guy actually believed what he was saying.
00:19:20.940 So, I'm like, okay, wait for it, okay?
00:19:25.880 It's ice.
00:19:30.240 Ice.
00:19:33.080 I'll say it again.
00:19:33.900 It's ice.
00:19:35.960 You might have some remnants of the paint from the lines in there, or whatever advertising logos you see using center of ice of every major arena, or every small town arena.
00:19:46.980 Nonetheless, it's still ice.
00:19:51.060 So, what kind of chemicals in there are going to make their kids, you know, go blind, or their arms go smaller, or get, you know, little pine cones growing out of their skull, honestly?
00:20:02.900 Like, that's the logic.
00:20:03.660 It goes to show that how many people will believe this climate hype, and get all paranoid.
00:20:09.400 Oh, she's right.
00:20:10.480 Yes, of course. 0.99
00:20:11.440 There's too many damn chemicals in that ice. 0.98
00:20:13.240 We got to put a stop to it right now. 1.00
00:20:16.160 How about we put a stop to the stupidity, and the buffoonery, and stop electing morons to call the shots? 1.00
00:20:22.560 Stay updated, and follow Krusty Canuck on Facebook, Twitter, Gab, Telegram, YouTube, and Podbean. 1.00
00:20:31.080 Subscribe today and donate at KrustyCanuck.ca. 0.99
00:20:34.460 Honestly, how many more morons have to call the shots? 1.00
00:20:41.160 Especially elected officials. 1.00
00:20:42.240 Not like I say, I don't care where you're from.
00:20:43.460 I don't care if you're from BC, Ontario, Alberta.
00:20:46.480 Like, just really start thinking before you start speaking.
00:20:49.260 Okay?
00:20:49.920 Which brings me to another blunder, too.
00:20:51.500 There's a podcaster out there, a fellow soldier.
00:20:54.340 We've had a couple of exchanges.
00:20:55.840 Good guy.
00:20:56.660 You know, his name's Jeremy McKenzie.
00:20:58.600 And he more or less created a meme as a joke.
00:21:01.680 Like a joke.
00:21:02.680 He's got a great sense of humor.
00:21:04.060 And when you sit with a bunch of soldiers and some of the stuff we have talked about over the years,
00:21:08.260 it's going to have a dark sense of humor, you know.
00:21:10.580 But it's not meant to hurt anybody or kill anybody or destroy anybody's life.
00:21:14.960 But it's just humor.
00:21:17.000 Now, he come up with a meme called Diagalon.
00:21:19.800 It's a fictional country, right?
00:21:22.980 Now, there's some stories out there that they're calling him a far-right white supremacist.
00:21:27.980 Or a far-right extremist.
00:21:30.300 And that's brought to the people at Global News, I think.
00:21:32.640 And I think CBC had their hands in it, too.
00:21:34.900 Because they jump on the gun every time someone has a different opinion. 0.97
00:21:37.940 And all of a sudden point fingers at you and call you a white supremacist and a misogynist. 1.00
00:21:41.920 And, oh, my God, you're a derelict. 1.00
00:21:43.500 How dare you? 0.97
00:21:45.300 So much for their die model, right?
00:21:46.940 They talk about diversity, yet they don't diversify.
00:21:48.980 They talk about inclusion. 0.99
00:21:49.800 They're as inclusive as a fart, all big and stinky, and they disappear. 1.00
00:21:53.280 And they believe in equality as much as they believe in donuts. 0.98
00:21:58.640 All for them.
00:22:00.040 But no equality for me, but lots of equality for you.
00:22:03.180 But, see, their version of equality means equity.
00:22:05.800 So if I make a pie, they're entitled to it.
00:22:08.860 That's their idea of equality, okay?
00:22:11.600 I think a long story short, they gave this guy a real hard time.
00:22:14.280 And he's just laughing.
00:22:15.660 And I don't blame him. 0.98
00:22:16.840 So, Jeremy, if you're listening to this, you fucking keep fighting the good fight, buddy. 0.96
00:22:19.680 And you keep doing your thing. 0.97
00:22:21.220 And to all of his fans and supporters out there, same thing, ladies and gentlemen.
00:22:23.740 You keep fighting the good fight and keep doing your bloody thing.
00:22:27.480 Okay?
00:22:28.140 There's no such country as Degelon.
00:22:30.700 It's funny as hell.
00:22:31.700 It's a great concept.
00:22:32.880 You know?
00:22:33.180 And it's just all around good sense of humor.
00:22:35.360 And I will back Jeremy McKenzie up until my last breath.
00:22:41.400 Because what I understand of him and the interaction that him and I have had a couple times, I know he's a stand-up guy.
00:22:49.000 He's not a bigot.
00:22:49.900 He's not a racist.
00:22:50.520 I've worked with lads from his battalion.
00:22:56.180 And there's quite the diverse mix of individuals in his old battalion.
00:23:00.120 So, you can't use the racist angle.
00:23:02.080 And you can't use the white supremacist angle.
00:23:04.600 And that's being overdone, too, ladies and gentlemen.
00:23:08.240 Okay?
00:23:09.040 So, here I have all these educated officials in mainstream media, legacy media alike, who are constantly saying,
00:23:13.860 Oh, this guy's a white supremacist. 0.91
00:23:16.200 He's an extremist. 0.99
00:23:17.560 Because we disagree with you.
00:23:20.520 It's nothing to do with the color of my skin.
00:23:23.320 It's what's in my head and in my heart.
00:23:25.940 See these flags behind me?
00:23:29.080 Okay?
00:23:29.940 They represent a lot of our history.
00:23:32.440 And regardless of how you personally feel about Canada and its history, not all of it's bad.
00:23:38.000 Okay?
00:23:39.000 A good point of our history is a guy named Frederick Banting.
00:23:42.000 Look him up.
00:23:43.020 Roberta Bondar.
00:23:44.060 Look her up.
00:23:45.060 Arlene Dickinson.
00:23:45.880 Look her up.
00:23:47.520 Nellie McClung.
00:23:48.240 Look her up.
00:23:48.800 British North America Act.
00:23:50.960 Look it up.
00:23:51.840 The Métis.
00:23:53.040 Look him up.
00:23:53.520 Louis Riel.
00:23:54.260 Look him up.
00:23:55.800 A lot of great history.
00:23:56.700 A lot of great people who have contributed to this country.
00:24:00.740 Right?
00:24:01.900 A lot of great people.
00:24:03.180 Regardless of how you feel about this statue or that statue.
00:24:06.480 Regardless of how you feel about this institution or that institution.
00:24:09.000 Need I remind my audience, too, that with the incidents that happened last summer with the so-called mass graves, have they done any digging yet?
00:24:22.040 Has anything been excavated?
00:24:25.660 Right?
00:24:26.120 Something to think about.
00:24:26.840 And I'm a firm believer in truth and reconciliation, ladies and gentlemen.
00:24:31.800 But let's find the truth.
00:24:33.960 Okay?
00:24:34.900 Let's find the truth.
00:24:37.020 I'm a firm believer in honor and integrity.
00:24:39.000 I'm a firm believer in capitalism.
00:24:40.300 I'm a firm believer in free enterprise.
00:24:42.460 I'm a firm believer in oil and gas. 1.00
00:24:44.240 So fuck you, Jane Fonda and Mark Ruffalo. 1.00
00:24:47.260 I'm a firm believer in prosperity for all. 1.00
00:24:49.840 I believe in Canada.
00:24:54.820 Our home and native land. 0.99
00:24:57.420 So when I hear these politicians speak, when I hear these chancellors speak, when I hear these so-called know-it-alls and environmental strategists speak, they don't know my goddamn thing. 0.97
00:25:08.180 They're not out there with the people. 0.98
00:25:09.740 They're not out there working, you know, digging the holes, building the homes.
00:25:13.060 They're not out there feeding the cattle.
00:25:14.180 They're not out there slaughtering the animals.
00:25:16.160 They're not out there trying to make their life easier.
00:25:17.840 They're making it easier based on you, ladies and gentlemen.
00:25:23.240 Right?
00:25:23.820 So the blunders are simple.
00:25:24.980 We're seeing it every day.
00:25:26.720 But the trick is not to let it get to us as it should.
00:25:30.240 As they want to.
00:25:31.820 Okay?
00:25:32.440 Speak out against it.
00:25:33.540 Call it out.
00:25:34.400 Call it for what it is. 1.00
00:25:36.420 Bullshit. 1.00
00:25:38.160 Okay? 1.00
00:25:38.720 It is bullshit. 1.00
00:25:40.620 Right? 1.00
00:25:41.500 I actually got a little comment from somebody saying,
00:25:43.640 Why are you wearing that hat, trusty Canuck?
00:25:45.920 Look, you never fought for the Union Army.
00:25:49.420 I don't have to fight for the Union Army to wear a hat like this.
00:25:52.560 It's a pretty cool hat.
00:25:54.140 It's historical, you know?
00:25:57.460 I think it's all right. 0.99
00:25:59.080 But what I wear is none of your damn business. 0.99
00:26:00.940 And what you wear is none of my damn business. 0.99
00:26:02.880 Simple things like that. 1.00
00:26:04.060 What you put in your mouth and your butt, none of my concern. 1.00
00:26:07.960 Right? 0.99
00:26:08.140 But am I going to hire somebody and include people in my life who do that for the sake of them doing it?
00:26:17.140 I don't care.
00:26:18.500 I know lots of people that have their preferences here and lots of other people have their preferences there that enjoy this, enjoy that.
00:26:24.360 But I trust them and I like them and hang out with them because they have the smarts and they have the heart.
00:26:30.400 And they treat people with respect and dignity.
00:26:34.600 Right?
00:26:35.440 They don't believe things like words or violence.
00:26:39.400 They don't believe in all this misogyny going around.
00:26:42.160 They don't believe that there's hidden racism under every little rock and corner.
00:26:46.120 They believe things are changing.
00:26:48.560 They believe context is being used horrifically.
00:26:51.740 They believe language is being used horrifically just to further a stinking narrative.
00:26:55.740 And you, my audience out there, you've seen all these narratives.
00:26:59.600 You see it all.
00:27:02.400 We can do better.
00:27:03.920 And we must keep doing better.
00:27:05.420 So all the people out there like Jeremy McKenzie, like myself, Krusty Canuck, like Daniel Boardman, True North, Rebel News.
00:27:13.060 Right?
00:27:13.940 Like Dan Dix. 1.00
00:27:15.600 Like all these other independent individuals coming out and speaking out against this bullshit. 1.00
00:27:20.960 Let's keep doing it. 0.98
00:27:22.380 And let's make these blunders turn into real progress, ladies and gentlemen.
00:27:28.680 Real progress.
00:27:31.600 Then we might see the light.
00:27:34.580 I'm going to say, do what you can to help each other at these trying times.
00:27:39.440 It's been difficult.
00:27:40.320 And just remember, too, this is also brought to you by free speech.
00:27:42.820 More important than your feelings, ladies and gentlemen.
00:27:45.920 You know, it was good to take that time off to get my head cleared in certain things.
00:27:50.000 Ah, to keep focused, all what has to be done.
00:27:53.700 Bill's paid.
00:27:54.220 Keep the lights on.
00:27:56.020 Keep my marriage strong and all that.
00:27:57.340 We got ourselves a new pet there last couple weeks ago.
00:28:02.880 So we called her little Sally.
00:28:04.600 She's a bit of a Dutch shepherd mix. 1.00
00:28:06.620 So kind of a nice dog.
00:28:07.900 And quite as a little dog.
00:28:09.060 You know, kind of cool.
00:28:10.680 You know, she greets me every day when I get home from work.
00:28:12.420 So nice little puppy.
00:28:14.340 You know, got a little kick.
00:28:16.000 I'm going to join her.
00:28:17.720 So we'll see how it goes.
00:28:19.140 And I'll keep you as well posted in regards to upcoming episodes.
00:28:25.440 Check out my page on Facebook and on YouTube for updates, too, for that matter.
00:28:30.380 Please check out my shop at CustomizedGirl.com.
00:28:33.000 Link will be in the description.
00:28:34.780 I get T-shirts, hats, swimsuits, mugs, paraphernalia, Krusty Connect paraphernalia, all to your leisure, too.
00:28:40.800 Summer is still here.
00:28:41.820 So you ladies out there who want to bring out your inner Baywatch, please grab yourself a Krusty Connect swimsuit. 1.00
00:28:46.240 Or whatever item that you fancy there on the Krusty Canuck Customized Girl Customized Store page.
00:28:52.500 Link will be in the description for you as all to follow, too.
00:28:55.260 And I'll try to get another episode up this Tuesday.
00:28:57.200 Hopefully, we'll see what's going on.
00:28:58.460 I got a lot of work to do, too.
00:28:59.500 As I mentioned in one of my episodes, too, I am working on a screenplay.
00:29:04.400 I'm not really going to dwell too much on what it's about.
00:29:08.300 But the creative juices are flowing.
00:29:10.840 And I've made some good contacts.
00:29:12.620 And I've got some good people working with me on this.
00:29:16.140 So time will tell.
00:29:17.700 So maybe we might have a website up and running sometime soon.
00:29:20.420 I don't know.
00:29:21.940 But in the meantime, I'm being counterproductive.
00:29:24.340 I'm being very productive.
00:29:25.160 Not counterproductive.
00:29:25.700 I'm being very productive, sorry, in regards to getting a creative outlet out there.
00:29:30.320 And I'm going to still make more episodes for you, my wonderful audience out there.
00:29:34.000 And I just want to remind you all, too, to give yourselves a good round of applause.
00:29:37.920 It's been awesome.
00:29:39.900 I've had a few emails the past couple of weeks.
00:29:41.740 They're really fantastic.
00:29:42.840 I want to thank those individuals.
00:29:44.460 And keep liking, subscribing, and showing all this around your social media platforms.
00:29:48.020 Well, like I say, ladies and gentlemen, this has been another episode of the Questiac Podcast, episode 184.
00:29:54.180 So 184 episodes.
00:29:56.120 And pardon me for not having enough memes or video to back these up.
00:30:01.160 This is based just a rant and rave on what I've seen in the name of politics and the name of social injustices happening here in Canada.
00:30:09.980 And I'm sure my American friends, too, are getting a little disturbed.
00:30:13.400 And before I go, I will make a mention that student loans are something that you have to take responsibility for.
00:30:20.380 And I had a little tidbit there with a few individuals talking about what hasn't happened in Canada yet, but it will, probably.
00:30:28.340 Right?
00:30:28.860 The way I look at taking a loan is you take a loan, you pay it back.
00:30:32.240 That simple.
00:30:33.900 Okay?
00:30:34.540 And I don't care what you study in school.
00:30:36.280 I don't care what you studied here or you studied there.
00:30:38.140 Okay?
00:30:39.340 It's all about you being an adult, making better decisions, making proper decisions for yourself and your future, what you think is right for you.
00:30:45.900 But if you're going to borrow $40,000 to study courses at this school or that school, and those courses do not really promise you any kind of proper career direction, then why'd you go?
00:31:00.820 Okay?
00:31:02.380 You do the time, you do the crime.
00:31:04.240 You do the crime, you do the time.
00:31:05.480 You know how it works.
00:31:06.480 You borrow money, you bloody well give it back.
00:31:11.680 Because it's not the banks that are going to be on hold for these loans.
00:31:14.700 It's not going to be Joe Blow down the road, cash loan certified.
00:31:20.380 It's going to be the taxpayer.
00:31:22.400 And my American friends out there too, I know you're up in arms about that.
00:31:25.280 So to those kids out there whining about having to pay back these loans, maybe you should have made some better decisions.
00:31:30.920 And maybe your mentorship should have stepped in and help you make some better decisions.
00:31:34.780 And if it comes up here to Canada where people are going to whine and whine and whine about, oh, my student loan, I got to pay this off.
00:31:42.040 And I got a liberal arts degree.
00:31:44.160 Well, maybe you shouldn't have taken liberal arts.
00:31:45.640 Maybe you should have gotten industrial arts on how to work a machine, how to work a hammer, drill, nails, how to draw something, how to build something.
00:31:52.300 And then maybe you could benefit yourself and benefit society with that too.
00:31:57.400 But what do I know?
00:31:58.400 Anyway, enough of my ranting today, ladies and gentlemen.
00:32:01.100 Thank you once again to my fans out there and the people who have sent me some wonderful comments in the past month.
00:32:05.440 Thank you very much.
00:32:06.440 It's because you, this show, keeps going on.
00:32:08.280 And only you can make this even better.
00:32:10.200 So please consider donating too.
00:32:11.560 You'll follow the links in the description for that as well.
00:32:13.580 But like I say, ladies and gentlemen, let's do what we can to help each other in these trying times.
00:32:17.440 It's only going to get better, but we got to make it better, you and me.
00:32:21.160 So do what you can to help a neighbor out.
00:32:22.880 A little bit of this, a little bit of that.
00:32:24.440 Maybe help your neighbor with groceries.
00:32:26.640 Maybe cut some grass for some elderly people out there. 1.00
00:32:31.300 And just do what you can to be good.
00:32:33.940 Like I say, humanity merit wins the day.
00:32:38.240 Take care and I'll see you Tuesday.
00:32:39.360 Bye for now.
00:32:46.920 This has been another episode of the Krusty Canuck podcast.
00:33:05.440 Stay sane.
00:33:06.420 And thank you for listening.
00:33:07.900 From Western Canada.
00:33:08.900 This is the Krusty Canuck podcast.
00:33:16.920 Mama always said I had a face for radio.
