Transcript
00:00:00.780
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It's a beautiful 15th of November, 2023.
00:00:05.480
Commit the Christiane podcast. Basically, are we done yet? Or had enough yet?
00:00:11.160
Question I keep asking myself and questions you should be asking yourselves
00:00:14.080
in regards to the plight of the world, the foolery, and the lackluster leadership
00:00:17.920
coming up, hitting us in the faces on a daily basis.
00:00:22.480
Listener of your discretion is advised because I do swear and smoke cigarettes.
00:00:49.400
From Western Canada, this is the Krusty Canuck podcast,
00:00:53.880
a Canadian veteran's point of view on political, social, economic issues, and life.
00:01:03.060
That's right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the podcast.
00:01:08.220
My apologies once again for not having a Tuesday rant there yesterday.
00:01:13.020
I was just beat and I was just really, really annoyed the way things were going there yesterday.
00:01:17.320
My apologies, but thank you everyone who has come out and given me some positive comments,
00:01:22.880
especially in my pod bean and here on my YouTube channel.
00:01:25.800

00:01:31.320
A special thank you out there to my friends at Northern Perspective, Cypher and Fox for making great content still.
00:01:36.160
And if you get a chance, ladies and gentlemen, please check out their work.
00:01:40.580
They're doing some exceptional work when it comes to getting to the root of what the federal government has spent on the Arrive Can,
00:01:51.060
You know that application they gave people to double check to see if they're jibby jabbed or not properly.
00:01:55.900
Yeah, but Cypher and Fox do a fantastic job doing that.
00:01:59.320
And I'll leave a link to their channel there too.
00:02:05.380
But like I say, once you, you know, if you're liking to hear what you see, click like and subscribe, give me a thumbs up too.
00:02:10.000
And I will ask my wonderful audience up there, please, if you can, give me a thumbs up and send a comment.
00:02:17.380
So it tells the powers that be back in Ottawa to leave us to hell alone and let our content thrive.
00:02:23.360
Anyway, while carrying the episode 242, we had just had Remembrance Day and I spent Saturday and Sunday with my friends, some veteran buddies, just contemplating, you know, looking at the play of the world,
00:02:41.660
looking at the way things are going, especially in the Middle East, war in Ukraine and other wars going around the globe and looking at the economic and the social plight that's plaguing our country today.
00:02:53.360
Now, I'm not going to sit here and rant and rage and get all mad and emotional, but I will give my perspective, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:02.900
Every Remembrance Day, that's the day for me where I sit and I reflect.
00:03:10.140
I ask myself, well, I ask myself that every day.
00:03:22.840
You know, there were dreams that I had and I still have them.
00:03:26.360
There's opportunities I had that I should have taken.
00:03:32.000
There's things I should have said, things I should have done.
00:03:37.800
And every Remembrance Day when I sit and I ponder that and I think about the guys that we lost and the gals we lost,
00:03:43.940
and I think about our country's history and I think about, oh God, everything all at once.
00:03:57.900
Well, you know, regardless if you want to take it sarcastically or not,
00:04:02.740
I can tell you that I am done with the political bullshit.
00:04:06.820
I am done with the lies and I am done with the social strife and people screaming to the heavens
00:04:17.220
I am done with people that expect magical things to happen and don't want to work for it.
00:04:24.200
Now, I'm not trying to sound militant here or belligerent, but I am trying to be realistic
00:04:29.200
because when I look at the world, when I see things out there, music, art, film, television,
00:04:42.740
A lot of those mediums have been taken for granted and shot out in the wind.
00:04:50.980
Now, there's a lot of artists out there that are still kicking ass, taking names.
00:04:53.800
There's some newer artists coming out, regardless of what genre you follow.
00:05:01.600
There's still passion and warfare, pardon the pun, that try to bring things to light.
00:05:21.280
I am done with all of this crap from our leaders, from some employers, from people who just don't
00:05:29.240
want to take that chance and be fucking genuine.
00:05:32.620
And the things that really linger in my fiber is that you've got to be genuine.
00:05:47.760
You've got to be downright mean sometimes and downright sincere sometimes.
00:05:53.360
We have forgotten how to be resilient in times of crisis.
00:06:01.800
Now, I don't have a lot of footage here to back up my claims.
00:06:06.880
I just want to get an episode out there for you, my wonderful audience, to let you know
00:06:10.680
that, yeah, I'm still alive, still kicking, and I want to keep the regularity going up.
00:06:16.420
I don't want to keep my podcast going, but it's getting difficult to really, really keep
00:06:29.280
in mind the positivity that we have to promote.
00:06:35.020
There are some days I just want to say, ah, fuck it.
00:06:44.240
But I'm just, I get so tired of every time you turn the tube, there's always somebody
00:06:50.400
whining about their feelings, or every time you open up any kind of newsprint or read
00:06:54.900
anything on the news at all, there's always some kind of victimhood out there.
00:07:00.120
And I would highly suggest, ladies and gentlemen, that all these protests that you're seeing
00:07:03.680
in regards to what's happening in the Middle East, we still have to filter through the garbage
00:07:09.280
And in these situations, there's no such thing as your truth or my truth or their truth or
00:07:22.040
But a lot of times other countries are out of fucking line, too.
00:07:26.080
Now, when you see all these people waving the Palestinian flags and saying, free Palestine.
00:07:36.820
It's just the Hamas regime that can't get their shit together.
00:07:40.280
They just want to destroy things, destroy anything Jewish and destroy anything Western.
00:07:46.840
And I personally don't care how you feel about Palestine or how you feel about Israel.
00:07:51.660
Israel, Israel is a tiny little country on the other side of the globe.
00:08:01.100
And Palestine is a tiny little country, too, on the other side of the globe.
00:08:06.680
And I've had some Twitter feeds and I've had some Twitter rants or people saying, oh, you
00:08:14.340
guys are Canadian and you Canadians promote genocide.
00:08:19.140
And yet I was not raised in a racist household, nor was I raised in a country that promoted
00:08:30.220
So there's a lot of disingenuine information going out there, too.
00:08:34.980
And I'm not going to sit here and say disinformation or misinformation because that that term has been
00:08:39.600
gaslit and dragged through the fucking mud because of leaders such as Prime Minister Justin
00:08:45.840
Trudeau and by leaders such as Joe Biden in the United States.
00:08:52.900
This is what we're going to have to do to combat this projection and this gaslighting.
00:08:58.140
Stand our ground and encourage the dialogue to the best of our ability.
00:09:06.760
Everybody in my life was not raised to be a bigot or to hate the First Nations.
00:09:15.060
Everybody in my life was not raised to be a racist to anybody.
00:09:19.480
But when you look at the way things are going and the way things are moving, we have leadership
00:09:23.820
that's trying to just to rush this and to rush that and to get this here, to get that
00:09:28.140
there, to to win or to conjure or to harness whatever brownie points they may have left
00:09:38.840
I think it's going to be up to us, the working class people, the middle class, to put an end
00:09:43.860
to that and to start really fighting some for some real change.

00:10:03.580
And welcome back to episode 242, ladies and gentlemen.
00:10:19.180
Are we done with all these brigades of so-called virtue signalers, all these so-called know-it-alls
00:10:24.780
because they might have a piece of paper that's no different than this freaking menu here stating
00:10:30.760
that they have the keys to the known universe as we speak?
00:10:37.220
Because I would have to say at least two-thirds of the world's problems have been caused by people
00:10:41.960
with little pieces of paper stating that they're brilliant when really they're just full
00:10:51.660
Are we capable enough to sort through this shit?
00:11:14.880
And I've had people say, oh, you're a colonialist.
00:11:20.400
And technically speaking, there's still some colonial ties to our country.
00:11:34.900
That doesn't necessarily mean I really believed it.
00:11:38.920
But I also gave my affirmation to my friends and my family and to myself to stand up for
00:11:46.260
And what may be right for me may not be right for you.
00:11:51.180
But I think we can agree that when we talk about these wars that are going on in the
00:11:55.440
Middle East over identities and over religions, I think we have to draw a line in the sand
00:12:03.760
I think we have to realize that enough of these holy wars and these jihads and these prophets,
00:12:29.360
And you have to realize, too, that Hamas wanted the world to see what they were doing.
00:12:36.600
And in the news today, you're seeing what Israel has been finding in some of these hospitals.
00:12:45.300
So when you sit there and talk about the innocent people, yeah, there is innocent people on both
00:12:52.220
Innocent people in Gaza, innocent people in Israel, innocent people in Palestine, innocent
00:12:55.980
people in Lebanon that really don't want anything more to do with this religious bullshit,
00:13:02.740
They want to just go about their business and be left the fuck alone.
00:13:08.740
So to all the influencers out there that talk about freedom fighting, ask yourself this.
00:13:25.300
You have right to gather and to convolute and talk about things, wave your flags.
00:13:35.600
But then when you start pointing fingers and saying, oh, you're this and you're that,
00:13:39.960
and yet you live in a country that has provided you the ability to say such wonderful things
00:13:45.860
and to do such wonderful things, I think somebody's taken a lot of freedom for granted
00:13:53.320
and not appreciating what they have and where they are and what they can do and what opportunities
00:14:01.800
So there's talk in this country about immigration policies and how we have to stop it because
00:14:06.820
there's no place to put people because all governments at one hand are in the same bed
00:14:12.100
when it comes to regulations and building and zoning permits and what have you.
00:14:16.160
And other people in said governments just don't want to build anything because some of them
00:14:21.300
actually think that they're going to save the world and save the climate by cutting back
00:14:25.480
on building things and taking more money out of me and you because they believe that the money
00:14:31.660
that we give them or that they take from us is going to save the world and change the weather.
00:14:39.840
And believe it or not, there are politicians out there that believe that kind of shit.
00:14:43.740
And they'll brag about getting their jibby jabs and they'll brag about taking a dog for a walk.
00:14:48.020
And they'll brag about brushing their hair and having a bag of chips and lifting their leg
00:15:06.760
A lot of things we got to take head on and do head on.
00:15:25.400
I like to think we still have the freedom to go out and about and do our things.
00:15:31.540
Well, I'm not going to do any more Neil Young quotes, but it makes a lot of sense.
00:15:39.420
It makes a lot of sense how people like myself and other podcasters and other creators out
00:15:47.200
there, we have all these great ideas, but we just don't have the time to implement them.
00:15:52.560
I could go to auto right now and hold a sign up on Parliament Hill.
00:15:56.300
Tell them how pissed off I am, and especially as a veteran, how insulting the liberal government
00:16:00.140
has been to our veterans and our military services.
00:16:03.120
And now they're harping because they're not getting enough recruitment, enough retention.
00:16:07.420
And yet, look at the incentive they've given our military the past five years alone.
00:16:15.700
Look at the incentive they've given anyone to serve this country's services.
00:16:21.720
What incentive is there for any man or woman to willingly join our military, lay their lives
00:16:32.320
There's been reports of soldiers having to get donations to pay their bills.
00:16:35.520
To put food in their table, to get gasoline in their tanks so they can go to work.
00:16:51.620
I remember back in the 90s, hearing stories about soldiers having to get second jobs because
00:16:56.080
there was a big pay freeze on, because the government wanted to save more money and cut
00:17:09.040
And I'm not just going to pinpoint the liberal government.
00:17:11.280
The conservatives are just as guilty for doing that too.
00:17:16.980
Sure, they want to promote this and they want to fix this, but they always end up doing
00:17:21.420
And then the next government comes in and kiboshes it all.
00:17:27.060
So, what we need to do is to get leaders, people, people, people's people, not just guys
00:17:37.000
who have degrees in this or gals who have degrees in that, qualified personnel.
00:17:44.000
Let's get rid of these DI models, diversity, inclusion, and equity, because when we see
00:17:49.840
this inclusion format, you're taking people out of the mix.
00:17:55.980
So, how can you sit there and say you're being inclusive when you cut people off?
00:18:01.900
Certain examples of this was this past Remembrance Day, where the chief chaplain of the Canadian
00:18:07.720
forces gave orders to not to send any prayers, because we have to be inclusive.
00:18:14.880
Well, if you want to be inclusive, then incorporate a Muslim prayer, a Jewish prayer, a Christian
00:18:20.620
prayer, and let's say an atheatic prayer, a good blessing of some sort.
00:18:31.460
I've said before in this show numerous times, I was let go of a job, from a job, because
00:18:38.700
Um, well, in order to promote inclusivity, you have to include people.
00:18:42.760
You don't just let somebody go, because they're not living up to your idea of what's inclusive
00:18:52.860
It's not like, not like they're the kind of people I wanted to work for, anyway, because
00:19:01.440
To sum this all up, ladies and gentlemen, we are not done yet.
00:19:17.560
You know, my wife and I were basically living paycheck to paycheck.
00:19:21.080
Now, like I said, I did have some savings a couple of weeks back, but then another bill
00:19:28.400
So, back to ground zero, but I'm still working.
00:19:33.040
The lights are still on, and I can still do this podcast.
00:19:37.600
You know, maybe there's some money sitting around waiting for me when I get these tax
00:19:43.720
But, needless to say, we've got to keep going on.
00:19:53.940
We are not just going to lie down and die and just wait for magic.
00:20:02.360
They're waiting for verification and validation over their feelings.
00:20:05.480
They're waiting for verification and validation over their OnlyFans shots or their bum shots
00:20:12.580
They're not waiting to get out there and get out in the world and do something a little
00:20:21.980
They're waiting to be told how to be constructive, and yet still coddled along the way.
00:20:33.780
I love my wife to the best of my ability, and I create.
00:20:39.360
I've been handing out a screenplay to certain individuals.
00:20:42.580
I'm waiting for a thumbs up, waiting for something to happen, but I still get out there and
00:20:47.520
create, and I still push this and push that, knock on a few cyber doors, say hello here
00:20:54.580
It's not perfect, but there's no such thing as perfect, too.
00:21:00.420
And when I say things like, had enough yet, a lot of us have had enough, but we've got to
00:21:14.060
A lot of us have had enough with this lackluster leadership and the terrible reporting, the
00:21:21.520
terrible journalism, and all the professional victims out there making bucks at their pity
00:21:27.240
rather than they should be making bucks based on their labor.
00:21:32.520
We have lost the sense of good pride and honor in getting something done, right?
00:21:41.040
But the more we persevere to be proud of our accomplishments, the more we persevere to be
00:21:45.860
proud of our merit, then I think the more it will catch on, too, ladies and gentlemen.
00:21:51.420
The more it will catch on for you, me, and our neighbors.

And once again, thank you out there to the people of the state of Oregon
00:23:10.480
I'm getting a few more downloads from you guys.
00:23:17.080
And especially thank you to those individuals that are in Singapore.
00:23:20.200
I've noticed I'm getting a few more downloads out of Singapore.
00:23:23.860
So thank you very much from across the Pacific.
00:23:27.320
And once again, thank you to my YouTube fans out there.
00:23:29.720
They always make a point of saying, hi, how's it going?
00:23:32.640
Giving me a comment and giving me a thumbs up and a like, what have you, too.
00:23:36.040
So thank you once again to all my loyal fans that have come along
00:23:48.400
I know a lot of people are getting sick and tired,
00:23:50.720
and there are other people that have had enough,
00:23:56.360
This past week, with all the foreign affairs ministers' BS comments,
00:24:05.320
I'm sure you can see footage of her out there just kind of tweaking
00:24:08.640
and shaking her head and always, you know, nodding.
00:24:11.400
And so that she has a nasty cocaine habit or she's got to pee or something.
00:24:16.680
But I just sit there with my wife, and I just, wow, this is what we've come to.
00:24:25.160
You know, lackluster politics, lackluster professionalism,
00:24:28.400
lackluster leadership, lackluster attempts to get things done,
00:24:32.180
and lackluster attempts to do the right things.
00:24:35.720
I've never claimed to be perfect, ladies and gentlemen.
00:24:40.700
But I know bullshit when I see it, and so should you.
00:24:47.260
You deserve to be told the truth like everybody else.
00:24:49.740
You deserve to have proper representation and proper leadership
00:24:55.200
And you also deserve to have the ability to be left the fuck alone.
00:25:01.000
But too bad we got too many people in this country
00:25:08.580
that just want to put a kibosh to that and control everything you do.
00:25:17.820
Because there's still lots of fight left in every one of us.
00:25:26.840
Anyhow, ladies and gentlemen, I have been Krusty Canuck for this episode 242
00:25:31.320
on this beautiful day of the 15th of November, 2023.
00:25:35.760
I will do another episode this coming Saturday.
00:25:38.900
I'll have a little more time to put together some more bells and whistles
00:25:43.900
And I don't think I'll be as mad as I was yesterday.
00:25:46.480
But needless to say, I'll try to keep it as real as possible.
00:25:57.240
And just to assure you, too, that there's people out there that care
00:26:01.080
and people out there that will tell you that you matter.
00:26:05.880
It doesn't matter what political spectrum you're on.
00:26:10.280
Like I said, I've been Krusty Canuck on this beautiful 15th of November, 2023,
00:26:21.980
Yes, Christmas, winter solstice, whatever you believe in.
00:26:30.640
So to all my listeners out there, I wish nothing but good things for you.
00:26:34.180
Try to give each other a hand and do what you can to help you out
00:26:38.620
Like I say, I'll be back this Saturday with more information
00:26:42.760
and another episode and possibly another segment of the upper or not
00:26:47.540
the upper count of the Canadian Polar Vortex of Bullshit.
00:26:57.240
But, yeah, there will be another segment of the Canadian Polar Vortex
00:27:02.520
I have to pick a worthy candidate or maybe candidates.
00:27:07.860
Pay attention to my community page on Facebook and on the tube.
