00:00:01.000 Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It's a beautiful 12th of August, 2023.
00:00:06.020 Coming up in this episode of the Cresting Neck Podcast, episode 222, or 222, wildfires 0.64
00:00:13.260 and other bullshit. In light of recent news of the catastrophic wildfires going on in
00:00:18.160 Hawaii, there's still more fires coming on in Canada, and other political BS for the
00:00:22.660 masses to swallow. Listener and viewer discretion is advised that do smoke cigarettes and tend
00:00:27.980 to swear a bit in the show. See you in a bit.
00:00:30.000 Get it, sweetheart.
00:00:36.180 Because I am hard, you will not like me.
00:00:39.140 Yes, sir.
00:00:42.620 There is no racial bigotry here.
00:00:47.460 Here you are always moving.
00:00:48.980 From Western Canada, this is the Cresting Neck Podcast, a Canadian veteran's point of view
00:00:58.200 on political, social, economic issues, and life. Here's Cresting.
00:01:05.120 That's right, ladies and gentlemen, episode 222, wildfires and other bullshit. Yes, we've got some 0.90
00:01:11.000 nasty fires going on in the world as we speak right now. Hi, everybody. I'm your host, Cresting Neck,
00:01:15.040 on this beautiful 12th of August, 2023. I want to say thank you to everybody out there that tuned
00:01:20.920 into my last episode. I've got some good response, some lovely emails, and a couple emails from people
00:01:26.740 that say they wanted to help me, but then try to suck me in on whatever money I have left.
00:01:31.960 So anyway, all my supporters out there, give yourselves a round of applause. You guys are
00:01:36.220 awesome. Well done. Well done to you all out there. And a special thank you to my friends in Ontario
00:01:42.380 that are watching right now. I've had some lovely emails from them. So thank you guys. And to my
00:01:46.480 new American listeners, I've been seeing the stats on my Podbean account, and it's going up.
00:01:51.940 So I want to say thank you to my American friends and brothers and sisters out there. Thank you very
00:01:56.040 much. Keep downloading, keep sharing this stuff all over around. And if you're liking here to see,
00:01:59.680 please click like and subscribe, share this podcast all over your social media platforms and all that
00:02:04.760 too. Help us Canucks keep our content out there for the masses to see, right? And help other Canadians
00:02:11.140 see too. So like I'm saying, wildfires. So Hawaii, firstly, I don't condone what's been going on with
00:02:18.240 the fires. I lived through a tornado when I was a kid. We were lucky where we lived. However, our town
00:02:26.300 was devastated for a while. So I know what it's like to witness a disaster. And my sincerest condolences
00:02:33.100 out there to my Hawaiian friends who have lost a loved one who have lost their property or, you know,
00:02:39.260 lost anything in general. In no way, am I condemning or correction, I am condemning a fire, but I'm not
00:02:46.560 condoning anyone setting a blaze or blaming the climate. It's just what it is. It's like,
00:02:52.780 like the title called says, we've had all these wildfires this past month and a half.
00:02:58.360 So can you not maybe think there's a little coincidence going on here? Honestly, like,
00:03:05.260 nevermind the conspiracies or about energy weapons or anything like that.
00:03:09.980 Think how coincidental everything's coming together in such a short time. You've got the fires in Greece.
00:03:17.340 We've had the fires here in Canada now since what, the end of June, mid June. It's now August. So the
00:03:23.760 better part of a month and a half, give or take a few days, all these fires have popped up. And then
00:03:29.240 what? Of course, all these politicians and UN officials are like saying, it's climate change.
00:03:35.100 It's global boiling. Oh, what are we going to do? Well, we're going to take more of your money on
00:03:39.260 call today. Don't you drive your SUV, but we're going to fly over to Geneva, Switzerland,
00:03:44.500 or we're going to fly here and fly there to tell you what to do. So that's, what's coming down to
00:03:49.260 you folks, honestly, because you and I both know that grass and trees do not spontaneously combust.
00:03:57.320 Neither does deadfall. So yes, is there room for human error? You're fucking right. There is
00:04:03.140 people flicking cigarettes. That happens. Campfires that aren't put out properly or left unattended.
00:04:09.640 That happens. Or you might get some activist or some shithead or someone paid a few bucks to go 0.95
00:04:15.560 take their lighter and do something like, hmm, you know what I mean? Quinky dink. And in no way, 0.99
00:04:24.720 like I say again, I am not condoning what happened to those people in Hawaii. No, I'm not condoning the
00:04:29.740 property loss that's happened in BC and Alberta and parts of Saskatchewan or the loss that's happened
00:04:36.080 in Greece as we speak right now. So one can honestly say that this is probably a deflection
00:04:44.080 of sorts, a deflection of something or just a lot of bullshit. And really, you know, what 0.98
00:04:52.220 can you say? Powers that be, I want to keep taking more money from me and from you and from
00:04:58.320 other people in the name of the climate catastrophe or the emergency they keep seeing. Okay. And I think
00:05:06.840 we're going to do okay, but we've got to see through this bullshit. I am all for trying to keep 0.99
00:05:11.600 temperatures regular or normal, but taking more money out of our pockets and penalizing people for
00:05:18.660 driving or for eating meat is not going to help. All right. Now for my here, it's expensive to live on
00:05:25.100 the island of Hawaii or the islands of Hawaii to begin with because they're islands and in the 0.88
00:05:29.560 middle of the fucking Pacific ocean, but nobody deserves to have their home destroyed. Nobody 0.84
00:05:34.180 deserves to have their livelihoods compromised because somebody has a goddamn agenda. See, 0.99
00:05:39.320 that's my best guess, ladies and gentlemen, that's my best guess on what is going on with this climate
00:05:44.160 BS. Okay. You can find a picture going around the internet with Greta Thunberg saying climate
00:05:49.300 emergency action now, and yet she's standing behind or standing in front of a lush green forest.
00:05:55.100 How's that an emergency? Don't we want things lush and green? Don't we want the osmosis happening 1.00
00:06:02.920 and carbon dioxide going around and feeding these plants that can provide fruits and vegetables for
00:06:08.220 the vegans and provide sustenance for the animals that we eat? The ever ending cycle, the never ending
00:06:14.440 cycle of life on this planet. All right. Now I've dealt with some people on my Twitter feed in regards to
00:06:20.740 climate and how we should stop using these certain things. But they also forget that half of their
00:06:26.520 wardrobe, half the items they use on a daily basis is petroleum based. Right. Mr. John Wilkinson,
00:06:33.700 our environmental minister, who really talks to people like they're a bunch of idiots, you know, 1.00
00:06:38.760 it's a death that's because of climate change. Where? Right. Mr. Gore made a point of saying that the ice caps 1.00
00:06:46.680 are going to melt by 2013. That's what he said, I think, back in 2007. So from 2007 to 2013,
00:06:53.080 people had six years to get their shit together before the polar ice caps melt. And yet they're 0.84
00:06:58.840 still there. They are still there. Okay. And you talk to any actual climatologist that's not on the
00:07:07.600 government payroll. Okay. They'll probably tell you different. Now I'm going to leave some links
00:07:14.680 in my description there, ladies and gentlemen, if you used to follow too, in regards to climate
00:07:18.440 scientists, Dr. Patrick Moore and friends of science, a decent webpage. I've reached out to them.
00:07:23.840 I haven't come back to me yet, but common sense people who have basically said, yes, there is a climate
00:07:30.640 change, but not to a point where we're going to die in 12 years.
00:07:34.580 And if the earth's temperature goes up another degree, nothing's going to happen.
00:07:43.880 So all this panic is just ridiculous because when you want to look at a pollution scale,
00:07:52.420 I think Canada's contributions to the whole carbon emissions is about 1.5 or 1.6% based on roughly
00:08:02.100 4 to 5% that China emits, another 4 to 5% that India emits. And I think 3.5 and 4% that parts of the
00:08:10.060 United States emits. Right now, do they have carbon taxes in the United States? Do they?
00:08:17.700 Well, as far as I know, they don't. As far as I know, they don't. And BC is the longest,
00:08:30.720 has the carbon tax in place. They've had it longest all over the country. Now, when you sit there and
00:08:35.760 you tax me for fueling up my truck or my car, and then you tax me again for fueling up my truck,
00:08:41.740 plus GST, you're basically just gouging. So regardless of the catastrophes that have happened
00:08:47.480 because of these fires, and as far as I know, the authorities on Vancouver Island are still
00:08:51.760 looking at some arsonists they're investigating, as well as some of our authorities here in Alberta
00:08:56.280 are looking out for arsonists too. Regardless of the catastrophe it's caused, I would say it was
00:09:03.700 man-made. Right? Climate change is man-made, so they say.
00:09:07.560 So is arson. Arson is man-made too. Once again, ladies and gentlemen, if you like and hear what

00:10:47.040 Links will be in my description, too, under sponsor.
00:10:49.040 And we're carrying on with episode 222. 0.93
00:10:52.700 Wildfires and other bullshit. 0.55
00:10:54.160 So once again, my condolences to the people out there that have lost their homes 0.98
00:10:57.240 and lost loved ones and friends alike.
00:10:58.880 My deepest condolences here in Western Canada.
00:11:03.060 It's devastating, and I'm sorry to hear.
00:11:05.840 We have some floods that are happening in Nova Scotia.
00:11:09.300 And all these things, like I said, just kind of are a little too close together
00:11:13.420 for my liking.
00:11:14.940 Well, as much as I want people to get along and get ahead, I think there's still a lot 0.96
00:11:20.900 of bullshit that's been plaguing people during this whole environmental emergency 0.97
00:11:26.220 they're trying to promote here, too. 0.99
00:11:28.120 If it was such an emergency, I would say there'd be more nations getting together
00:11:30.920 to come up with some viable plans rather than a new taxation with a representation.
00:11:35.960 Okay?
00:11:36.740 And it's because of all these new taxes and all these lies and how our governments,
00:11:42.820 especially down in the States, talking about misinformation and disinformation.
00:11:46.180 That's misinformation.
00:11:47.300 That's disinformation. 1.00
00:11:49.980 Bullshit. 1.00
00:11:50.460 But there's a hidden agenda that's going on, as far as I'm concerned, to take more money 1.00
00:11:56.540 from people to keep them poorer.
00:11:58.620 Okay?
00:11:58.940 Don't blame capitalism.
00:12:00.840 Okay?
00:12:02.060 Don't blame the far-right aficionados.
00:12:04.940 Don't blame the far-left aficionados, even though they have probably more to do with
00:12:08.280 it than they fart right-wing nuts. 1.00
00:12:10.420 Okay? 0.86
00:12:11.400 I would say this.
00:12:13.100 There are people out there that don't want you and I to get along and get ahead.
00:12:16.720 There are people out there that don't want us to progress properly, meaning to have more
00:12:22.300 money to put away, to have extra food in the fridge, to have extra fuel that we can
00:12:26.860 use to go to work or to take your loved one and your kids to a nice trip someplace or 0.99
00:12:31.080 a nice little holiday or a day trip to a fucking theme park. 0.99
00:12:34.620 No. 0.99
00:12:35.240 As far as I'm concerned, there are people that are in charge that are calling the shots
00:12:39.000 and where I put my money, where you put your money, and how they can get a hold of 0.99
00:12:42.560 it and take it again to build their great fucking utopia. 0.98
00:12:45.640 Well, I'd like to remind some kids out there, and I will call them children, because some 0.99
00:12:50.740 of the responses I've had on Twitter from some of these socialists that say they're 1.00
00:12:55.420 based, fuck you. 1.00
00:12:59.140 Okay? 1.00
00:13:00.160 Pardon my swearing.
00:13:01.800 Sorry for you to think the F-bomb. 1.00
00:13:03.920 Fuck you. 1.00
00:13:06.700 Okay? 1.00
00:13:08.580 You want to sit and promote this so-called utopia, and you want to keep finger-wagging and
00:13:14.020 blaming this person and blaming that person and blaming this and blaming that. 0.98
00:13:18.280 So here comes the other bullshit of today's episode. 1.00
00:13:22.840 Fuck socialists. 1.00
00:13:24.180 Fuck communists. 1.00
00:13:25.840 Fuck fascism. 1.00
00:13:28.800 Right? 1.00
00:13:29.480 Fuck all you three socialist-based weirdos. 1.00
00:13:33.700 Okay? 1.00
00:13:35.180 All three branches of socialism I just mentioned to you. 1.00
00:13:38.480 Fuck you's all. 1.00
00:13:41.200 Okay? 1.00
00:13:43.300 Because a lot of you commies and socialists out there, and fascists, you know, you might
00:13:48.380 call yourself something different, but you guys know who you are.
00:13:51.840 You haven't fought for anything in your lives.
00:13:55.180 I don't think you fought a day in your life, other than, you know, maybe knocking down a statue
00:13:59.300 or spray-painting something and saying you're standing up for the working class.
00:14:03.000 I don't think you've ever gone to work, ever.
00:14:05.760 I really don't think you know what it takes to actually go to work on a day-to-day basis.
00:14:11.100 Right?
00:14:11.820 So us Gen Xers, some of us boomers, you know, I've got family that are in the fight with
00:14:19.120 me, too.
00:14:20.600 Right?
00:14:21.300 And I got friends of mine that are about 10, 20 years younger than I am.
00:14:24.060 They're in the fight. 1.00
00:14:24.880 So some Gen Zers and some millennials are getting sick of your shit. 1.00
00:14:30.840 Okay? 1.00
00:14:31.240 We're getting tired of it.
00:14:33.880 Right?
00:14:34.340 You want to go on the street and cause trouble?
00:14:36.080 Okay.
00:14:37.160 Okay.
00:14:38.840 Right?
00:14:39.760 Don't be surprised one day if someone taps you on the shoulder and cold cocks you right 1.00
00:14:43.240 in the fucking mouth, and then turns around and says to you, we warned you, didn't we? 0.99
00:14:48.700 Now, I'm not advocating the use of violence, ladies and gentlemen, and I'm pretty heated 1.00
00:14:51.600 about this stuff, right?
00:14:53.960 But it's getting to a point where there is a boiling point.
00:14:56.960 So in a way, there is global boiling.
00:14:58.540 Just not in the sense of, you know, throwing a pot on the stove and to make your favorite
00:15:03.120 macaroni and cheese dinner. 1.00
00:15:05.800 Boiling where people are socially getting tired of this shit. 1.00
00:15:10.060 People are getting tired of being lied to. 1.00
00:15:11.900 People are getting fed up with being told what place they have to sit in.
00:15:16.800 For example, I'm a veteran of the Canadian Armed Forces.
00:15:21.820 I know a few veterans in the States.
00:15:23.740 I've got some brethren I talk to on a regular basis via the podcast, via my website.
00:15:28.560 And we talk about things back and forth.
00:15:32.060 And the similarities are there.
00:15:36.120 You know, break glass in case of war.
00:15:38.240 Break glass in case of emergency.
00:15:41.740 Nobody values a veteran's point of view when it comes to diplomacy or leadership.
00:15:46.120 Nobody values a veteran's point of view when it comes to team building or teamwork.
00:15:51.500 Right?
00:15:51.700 You should.
00:15:54.340 Okay?
00:15:55.820 Now, I do appreciate the comments I have received over the past six months in regards to thank
00:15:59.660 you for your service, Krusty.
00:16:01.120 Thank you for this.
00:16:01.860 Thank you for that.
00:16:02.300 And that means something to me.
00:16:04.340 Okay?
00:16:05.040 But I've actually heard the same thank you for your service from politicians that don't 0.99
00:16:10.100 give a shit. 0.99
00:16:11.480 I've heard the same thank you for your service from bureaucrats that are too busy counting their 1.00
00:16:15.940 tax dollars worrying about their next fucking holiday to Ireland or to South America. 0.99
00:16:21.700 Right? 0.99
00:16:24.260 I've heard people worry about, you know, the toxic masculinity part of military service.
00:16:31.220 If you're so afraid of toxic masculinity, then maybe the military is not for you.
00:16:37.600 If you're so worried about toxic masculinity, maybe firefighting is not for you.
00:16:42.140 Maybe policing is not for you.
00:16:43.880 Maybe working in a factory on your feet, building parts and building machinery and fixing machinery 0.97
00:16:49.820 is not for you is too goddamn toxic. 0.95
00:16:53.240 Okay? 0.98
00:16:53.700 So those individuals that dismiss veterans all the time or those individuals that dismiss
00:16:58.400 people that are over the age of 40 and have an opinion that's worth more than your
00:17:04.640 half-assed gender studies degree.
00:17:07.320 Think about that. 0.99
00:17:08.620 Think long and fucking hard about that. 0.92
00:17:14.640 The veterans in World War II did something honorable. 0.93
00:17:17.040 The veterans in World War I did something honorable too.
00:17:19.500 The veterans that went to Korea did something honorable.
00:17:21.900 And the veterans that went to Vietnam, or as some Americans would say Vietnam, Nam or Nam, doesn't matter.
00:17:31.580 They served.
00:17:33.060 And some of our Canadian brothers stepped up, crossed the border, and joined the U.S. Army
00:17:37.860 and Marines and the Navy and the Coast Guard and the Air Force and did their part to what
00:17:42.720 they thought was right as well.
00:17:43.960 Well, they figure roughly anywhere from 25,000 to 30,000 Canadians signed up in the American
00:17:51.600 services during those years.
00:17:54.660 So regardless of how you feel about warfare, somebody had to do it. 0.99
00:18:01.260 Somebody had to step up and do that shit job. 0.98
00:18:03.640 Somebody had to step up and go over there for a year if they lived, or go over there for 0.99
00:18:07.920 another year if they lived.
00:18:10.500 Just like in Canada, somebody had to step up and do a six-month tour.
00:18:14.560 Somebody had to step up and go over here and go over there.
00:18:17.660 Someone's got to put on that gear and the breathing apparatus and storm that building
00:18:21.940 to pull those kids out.
00:18:24.120 Someone's got to make the tough decision to sit there with an armed individual and decide,
00:18:28.960 do I shoot this person, do I stun this person, or do I try to negotiate?
00:18:33.240 All in a few seconds of time until that individual reacts.
00:18:38.780 And that police officer has to react quickly, promptly, and professionally without getting themselves
00:18:43.420 or anybody else hurt.
00:18:45.840 Right?
00:18:46.640 So to you little kids out there that talk about unfairness, and we deserve equity, get off 1.00
00:18:52.620 your ass and earn it! 1.00
00:18:55.740 Shit simple. 1.00
00:18:57.900 Right? 1.00
00:18:58.140 I don't care what degree you have.
00:19:01.360 I don't care how much debt you have.
00:19:04.700 Welcome to the real world.
00:19:07.460 Okay?
00:19:08.640 People get debt.
00:19:10.460 There's good debt, and there's bad debt.
00:19:13.360 Okay?
00:19:13.760 There's good things that you can get in debt, having a home, but now that's getting more
00:19:18.740 difficult because, especially here in Canada, government red tape.
00:19:24.120 Okay?
00:19:25.240 Who's going to build this?
00:19:26.480 Who's going to build that?
00:19:27.660 Zoning. 1.00
00:19:28.640 Oh, fuck you name it. 1.00
00:19:29.780 There are tons of regulations out there just in the municipal side of things, let alone 1.00
00:19:34.100 the province and the federal side of things.
00:19:36.100 But when the government borrows and borrows and borrows and borrows and borrows and prints
00:19:41.560 and prints and prints all this money, things go up in cost.
00:19:46.540 Yet those same individuals that have said, oh, well, we're down to 2.8% inflation.
00:19:52.500 That's cool.
00:19:53.100 But bravo.
00:19:54.000 Oh, that's amazing.
00:19:55.560 That's really good.
00:19:56.540 Oh, that's great.
00:19:57.440 That's great.
00:19:58.020 That's fantastic.
00:19:59.320 But guess what?
00:20:00.440 Food, gas, heat, and hydro is still right the fuck out to lunch.
00:20:05.040 Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah. 0.87
00:20:08.380 Right?
00:20:09.860 So with all those backers and supporters of our progressive government, obviously you're 0.96
00:20:15.640 not getting your ass tickled or you're just afraid to admit we're getting it sideways. 0.93
00:20:21.240 Well, you want to follow the dear leaders into a victory. 0.99
00:20:26.140 Well, you might end up in an early grave financially, that is.

00:20:46.500 That's right, ladies and gentlemen.
00:20:47.480 Welcome to episode 222 of the Krusty Canuck podcast. 0.97
00:20:51.380 Wildfires and other bullshit.
00:20:53.300 Yes, sorry for getting a little heated there. 0.98
00:20:55.040 I was getting a little too emotional for my own good.
00:20:58.000 Oh, my goodness.
00:20:59.440 Now, in my 50 years, yes, I said I was 50, and I am 50.
00:21:03.020 Oh, my God, you must be old.
00:21:06.220 I've heard comments like that from people before.
00:21:08.880 That's life.
00:21:10.680 When my father was 50, he would tell me things, and I'd listen, right?
00:21:17.160 When my mother was alive and she was 50, she would tell me things too.
00:21:22.300 But don't call me father.
00:21:23.620 I'm not your father.
00:21:24.500 I'm just a podcaster speaking his mind, trying to keep the freedom of speech alive
00:21:29.640 while we still can, ladies and gentlemen.
00:21:31.360 And so should you out there.
00:21:33.620 Keep it rocking and rolling.
00:21:35.320 Keep the words out there.
00:21:37.200 Okay?
00:21:37.700 There's a big stink with the whole meta and Google thing about newscasters not getting
00:21:42.180 their fair share or big tech not paying its fair share.
00:21:46.480 You know what's amazing?
00:21:47.660 Every time I hear the NDP in this country, that's the New Democrat Party, they're like
00:21:54.060 a socialist party to my American listeners out there, and our liberals, they're like
00:21:58.340 your Democrats, they keep talking about people not paying their fair share.
00:22:02.420 Now, I'd like to remind my audience out there, too, that any backbencher in Parliament right
00:22:07.780 now is receiving roughly $189,000 or $192,000 a year.
00:22:14.220 Now, if you're a minister or a shadow minister, then I'm actually skyrocketing to about $225,000
00:22:21.400 or I think roughly $240,000 a year if you're the shadow minister or a minister of something.
00:22:27.780 Okay?
00:22:28.500 And there's quite a few new ministerial positions that were just made up for the sake of progress
00:22:32.740 and diversity, make everybody happy, so everybody's included.
00:22:37.800 Right? 0.99
00:22:38.880 Except for the taxpayer, because, you know, they get it up the chuff all the fucking time. 0.99
00:22:44.220 But, hey, who am I to criticize, right? 0.98
00:22:45.980 I'm all for diversity and inclusion, but without diversity of thought, without diversity of
00:22:51.540 ideas.
00:22:52.940 And I know some lefties out there don't like the idea of marketplace of ideas.
00:22:56.100 That's just so passe.
00:22:57.200 Oh, that's hate speech.
00:22:59.820 Right? 1.00
00:23:00.080 They're usually some fat bastard sitting in some cubicle, having his ketchup chips drinking 1.00
00:23:04.840 his Coca-Cola, and wanting to have the luxury of sitting at home in his jammy jams while 1.00
00:23:10.320 he can do work on a Zoom meeting.
00:23:12.840 Yeah.
00:23:13.540 Okay. 1.00
00:23:13.820 Well, fuck that. 0.99
00:23:15.300 Anyway, carrying on again with episode 222 of the Cresting Act podcast, wildfires and 0.99
00:23:20.340 other bullshit. 0.97
00:23:21.360 So I've talked about bullshit enough. 1.00
00:23:25.440 It's everywhere. 0.99
00:23:26.960 What can I say, ladies?
00:23:28.060 It's everywhere.
00:23:29.860 Right?
00:23:30.400 There's a podcaster there by the name of Jerry McKenzie, ex-soldier, fellow royal.
00:23:34.560 Good lad.
00:23:35.480 He's made some mistakes. 1.00
00:23:37.020 He said some stupid things. 1.00
00:23:38.240 But all the power to him for standing his ground. 1.00
00:23:42.420 And he's made some very, very valid points when it comes to the politics of this country.
00:23:46.200 You know, there were situations where the conservatives could have stood up and did something.
00:23:51.820 There were situations where our own liberals could have stood up and done something.
00:23:55.020 And of course, there are situations where our NDP, our commie lights, could have done something too.
00:24:01.200 But they don't.
00:24:02.240 Because the bottom line, ladies and gentlemen, is that they're looking out for themselves.
00:24:06.740 Okay?
00:24:06.900 Look at the NDP page on Twitter anytime.
00:24:10.560 How they talk about virtue and how there's corporate greed in the grocery stores.
00:24:14.840 Well, there's corporate greed in every corporation in North America.
00:24:19.620 And I'm almost positive the same in Europe too.
00:24:23.380 Okay?
00:24:23.860 Oh, these companies are making record profits and they don't pay their workers a fair wage. 0.97
00:24:28.440 What the fuck do you care about fair wages? 0.98
00:24:31.980 When your taxation without representation is screwing Canadians. 0.99
00:24:37.200 Coast to coast to coast.
00:24:40.520 So I don't buy that virtue for any reason at all.
00:24:45.320 Okay?
00:24:45.720 I personally believe in fair taxation.
00:24:48.520 A flat rate.
00:24:50.200 And if the government wants to make money, I'm sure they can do it by other means.
00:24:56.240 And reaching into our pockets and grabbing more of it.
00:24:59.900 Especially during the financial crisis that they caused.
00:25:03.320 The sitting parliament.
00:25:04.600 The sitting politicians right now.
00:25:06.800 I don't care if they're off for summer or not.
00:25:09.300 Okay?
00:25:09.780 The governing bodies in this country put us in this position.
00:25:13.700 It's not some worldwide phenomenon.
00:25:16.100 It's not because of climate change.
00:25:17.720 It's because of their incompetency. 1.00
00:25:23.000 And their bloody tomfoolery. 1.00
00:25:25.860 And basically, it's their own fucking greed. 1.00
00:25:28.160 So while they keep gaslighting companies that do this and do that, they're deflecting from themselves. 0.99
00:25:34.940 So it's up to you and I, ladies and gentlemen, all of my Canadian listeners and all my American listeners too, to hold every politician to account. 0.97
00:25:43.700 If that means we have to spend an extra 10-15 minutes picking up the telephone or typing an email to them, so fucking be it. 0.96
00:25:52.760 Okay? 0.75
00:25:54.040 I'd like to do this as peacefully as possible.
00:25:58.460 Okay?
00:25:59.620 And what gets me too is you get some of these aides and some of these bureaucrats still trying to figure out, oh, why are so many Canadians getting angry?
00:26:07.620 Oh, that's just not Canadian. 0.86
00:26:11.220 Oh, how long have you lived in Canada?
00:26:15.600 You ever watched Team Canada play?
00:26:17.420 Ever watched a lacrosse game?
00:26:18.680 Yeah, Canucks get pissed off.
00:26:20.840 Canucks get angry. 1.00
00:26:23.340 Sorry we're not walking around with .50 caliber rifles willing to blow a tank up in the fucking street. 1.00
00:26:27.860 No. 0.99
00:26:28.860 But there's a lot of us know how to use them.
00:26:31.920 And there's a lot of us know how to use this and that and little tricks of the trade.
00:26:35.760 A few skills here and there.
00:26:38.060 If it calls for it.
00:26:39.080 But I don't want anything like that to be called for to begin with. 0.99
00:26:43.820 What I'd like to see is responsible adults take responsibility and be accountable for their shit. 0.98
00:26:49.240 Kind of like how you and I were taught, ladies and gentlemen. 0.99
00:26:51.900 Kind of like how you and I were taught that if you're late for work, you own it.
00:26:55.860 Right?
00:26:56.220 Or if you lie, you own up to it. 0.98
00:26:59.040 Or if you make a mistake, you fucking own up to it. 0.93
00:27:01.020 All part of being an adult. 0.99
00:27:01.980 And yet when I see these clowns on television saying, oh, it's because of climate change and it's because of inflation. 0.90
00:27:07.900 Yeah. 0.95
00:27:08.480 It's because someone's given them a little slap and tickle on the reach around and the promise of a kiss and glory at the end of the day.
00:27:14.760 And you and I know it's not going to happen. 1.00
00:27:18.120 You know, it's just, it's just all bullshit. 0.99

00:28:29.720 That's right, ladies. 1.00
00:28:30.740 Listen to the fine vocal stylings of Gary and his bell bottoms behind a phone booth and transport trucks. 1.00
00:28:36.500 Anyhow, enough of that shit. 0.99
00:28:39.720 I've actually had people ask me about the Gary thing. 0.99
00:28:42.020 And I just, there was a page on Facebook called Tribute to the Worst Album Covers.
00:28:47.300 And I think it was called something else now.
00:28:49.780 But it's still on my feed and I look at it once in a while.
00:28:51.820 I have a little chuckle about some of the album covers that some of these artists put out.
00:28:54.580 Now, maybe Gary's a good singer.
00:28:56.240 I don't know.
00:28:57.320 I don't know.
00:28:57.880 I'm not going to go away and try to find a burnt copy or a vinyl copy of that record.
00:29:01.780 I just saw it as like, okay, this is going on the show.
00:29:04.900 Gary, that's right.
00:29:06.100 Hi, ladies. 1.00
00:29:07.300 But I just had to throw it on there.
00:29:10.540 Just throw some humor into some of this anger that's been going on. 1.00
00:29:15.360 I was going to try to put together a polar vortex of bullshit. 0.88
00:29:21.280 I don't have a candidate this episode, but I'll play the title card anyway, just to make some of my fans happy. 0.99
00:29:28.640 Anyway, there's no episode of the Canadian polar vortex of bullshit. 0.96
00:29:36.700 However, next podcast episode, not the Tuesday rant, but the one I'll probably do from two weeks from now, I will actually have a likely and viable candidate for the Canadian polar vortex of bullshit. 0.97
00:29:55.660 Yeah, so I had a couple of fans ask me the other day about that.
00:30:00.520 And I said, well, if I find a lucky candidate, I will definitely put that up there for you as all, too.
00:30:05.320 But I don't have one.
00:30:06.180 But anyway, I gave you the title card and the shout out, too.
00:30:08.460 So, you know, a round of applause for that.
00:30:11.560 Because you guys are awesome.
00:30:13.100 And, you know, I try my best to appreciate that.
00:30:15.480 But anyway, in this episode of 222, Cresting Podcast, Wildfires and Other Bullshit.
00:30:20.380 So, in light of recent events, this is all I got to say.
00:30:26.040 Let's just do what we can to be good.
00:30:28.040 Let's do what we can to be sane.
00:30:29.820 Regardless of how many big techs are doing this or big techs are doing that or big grocery chains are doing whatever.
00:30:36.780 We as the Canadian people and my American friends, too, my British friends, whoever's listening to this podcast all around the globe.
00:30:44.600 We just got to do what we can to be decent to each other.
00:30:47.780 It's that simple.
00:30:48.600 So, you know, regardless of where you sit on the political fence, regardless of how many identities you might have or what your sexual preference is.
00:30:59.480 I personally don't care if Bob and Steve get busy.
00:31:01.520 I don't care if June and get busy.
00:31:02.620 Knock yourselves out.
00:31:03.640 Have all the bum fun and carpet fun you want. 0.66
00:31:05.860 I don't really care.
00:31:07.240 What I care about is that you try your damnedest to be good to people.
00:31:11.600 Okay.
00:31:12.320 And I'm not saying give away your money, give away your food.
00:31:14.780 But do what you can to be to be a little more kinder than what we are given by our leaders.
00:31:22.820 Okay.
00:31:23.220 Don't fall for the narratives.
00:31:24.960 Don't fall for the whole taxation without representation.
00:31:28.340 Start demanding the representation.
00:31:30.180 It's that simple.
00:31:31.740 And we can do it without violence.
00:31:33.340 We can do it without greed. 0.99
00:31:34.640 We can do it without causing any shit. 0.97
00:31:37.540 But you can't deny the fact that things are starting to boil. 0.98
00:31:44.000 And I'm not talking the global here.
00:31:45.520 I'm talking about people.
00:31:47.720 There are people that have worked 25, 30 years.
00:31:51.120 Savings gone.
00:31:52.120 There are people that have invested time and effort in their careers and their education.
00:31:55.720 Gone.
00:31:56.940 All because somebody in Ottawa or Washington, D.C. 1.00
00:32:00.920 cannot get their shit together. 0.97
00:32:02.420 So let us, the Canadian taxpayer, the American taxpayers, the British taxpayers, German, French, 0.98
00:32:10.280 every democratic country that is trying to thrive, let us do better by our means.
00:32:19.100 And let's start demanding it.
00:32:21.500 Okay.
00:32:22.140 Anyway, let's jump. 0.73
00:32:22.960 I've been Krusty Canuck.
00:32:23.860 Yeah.
00:32:24.400 Krusty Canuck.
00:32:25.260 On this beautiful 12th of August, 2023.
00:32:28.320 Once again, my sincerest condolences and my heartfelt sadness to the people of Hawaii
00:32:36.320 that are going through a real hard time.
00:32:41.980 I know what to say.
00:32:43.440 Just, you know, I hope we can get through this and we can overcome this.
00:32:46.840 And to my friends in B.C. and Alberta, too, who are still fighting the fires
00:32:50.660 and trying to find the people responsible, let's keep our chins up and get that done.
00:32:56.280 And to you, my wonderful audience, and the feedback I've had the past couple of weeks,
00:33:00.080 thank you very much.
00:33:01.240 A round of applause to you all, too.
00:33:03.200 Once again, you guys are awesome.
