00:00:00.000 A good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:02.480 It's a beautiful 30th of January, 2024.

00:00:05.860 Come up on this Tuesday rant with the Cresting Act podcast.

00:00:08.820 Oh yes, election reform, Yagmeet Singh and Prime Minister Trudeau in cahoots with getting

00:00:13.900 something nasty done and more military threats from certain commanders who just don't like

00:00:19.700 it when men take out the tampons from the mail, wash them and toss them aside. 1.00

00:00:23.580 All those dirty, dirty buggers. 1.00

00:00:26.000 All that more from the podcast. 0.99

00:00:26.900 Please stick around.

00:00:28.680 Listener discretion might be advised because I might swear I might smoke a cigarette.

00:00:33.200 I don't know.

00:00:34.160 See you in a bit.

00:00:34.720 Hit it, sweetheart. 1.00

00:00:42.160 Because I am hard, you will not like me.

00:00:45.040 Yes, sir.

00:00:48.580 There is no racial bigotry here.

00:00:53.240 Here you are all equally working.

00:00:55.240 From Western Canada, this is the Krusty Canuck podcast, a Canadian veteran's point of view

00:01:04.100 on political, social, economic issues and life.

00:01:08.240 Here's Krusty.

00:01:10.900 That's right, ladies and gentlemen.

00:01:12.040 Welcome to another exciting episode.

00:01:13.680 The Tuesday rant with yours truly, Krusty Canuck.

00:01:16.520 I'm your host.

00:01:17.200 Hope everyone had a good evening since the last 24 hours of my last episode.

00:01:21.020 But like I said, I had some issues there on the Saturday.

00:01:24.320 I just didn't really feel like doing it because I was bearing a comrade.

00:01:27.760 And as to say, if you like and hear what you see, please click like and subscribe, share

00:01:30.600 this content all around.

00:01:31.700 Thank you out there to everybody who applauded and saw my last episode, especially my new subscribers.

00:01:36.960 So thank you very much.

00:01:38.440 You guys are awesome.

00:01:39.580 Thank you, thank you, thank you greatly for your dedication and support, too.

00:01:46.800 So like I said, this episode is about election reform that Yagmeet Singh and Justin Trudeau

00:01:50.540 are planning behind closed doors as we speak.

00:01:53.980 Oh, my goodness.

00:01:57.300 What's it going to mean?

00:01:58.260 I remember back in 2015, one of the campaign promises from Mr. Trudeau was the simple fact

00:02:03.580 that we're going to have electoral reform.

00:02:05.840 Fix things up.

00:02:06.600 So no more of this first past the post stuff.

00:02:08.260 Give everyone a fair chance and all this good stuff.

00:02:10.920 Now, have you seen the GTA voting base, too?

00:02:13.660 Some of those districts and lines and borders are put together for the sake of getting people

00:02:17.640 into power, not for the sake of representation.

00:02:21.340 Now, in theory, you could split the city up in a few different ways and make sure everybody

00:02:27.220 gets a chance to vote.

00:02:28.900 However, the denser the population in certain areas, the more votes are going to go to this

00:02:32.700 guy or that gal or this gal or this guy, whatever. 1.00

00:02:35.520 But we've seen the buffoonery that has been bestowed on us since the Liberals have gotten

00:02:41.260 to power and the buffoonery that happened to almost two years ago now or two and a half

00:02:45.340 years ago when Yagmeet Singh signed an agreement with the Liberals to prop each other up during

00:02:51.400 these difficult times, which basically meant holding on to their jobs, holding on to whatever

00:02:57.020 power they have just to keep themselves gainfully employed.

00:03:00.900 And while they give themselves a pay raise come this 1st of April, effectively this 1st

00:03:04.940 of April, we're going to get it up the chuff one more time.

00:03:11.780 Yeah, I know it's not a laughing matter, but I just try to throw some laughter in there

00:03:14.980 just to ease the BS that's coming.

00:03:17.420 You already saw my other episode in regards to how much more money the average backbencher

00:03:22.060 will be getting paid, plus how much more money the prime minister himself and other ministers

00:03:26.540 will be getting paid, too, on a yearly basis.

00:03:29.540 Now, once again, I don't care if you give to charity, I don't care how much you give here 0.84

00:03:34.020 or you give there, put money away here, put money away there, it's too goddamn much. 0.54

00:03:38.140 And you just got off of Christmas, which was roughly six weeks long. 0.55

00:03:42.460 God, it must be nice to have a six-week holiday.

00:03:44.740 God, it must be really nice. 0.98

00:03:46.500 I haven't had a holiday in, ooh, shit, getting on to six years now. 0.97

00:03:52.760 At my job, I'm entitled to two weeks vacation, okay, every year. 0.98

00:03:57.860 That's great, that's great, but it's expensive, okay?

00:04:03.080 There's people I want to see in Ontario, though.

00:04:04.520 I've got family, I've got friends there, too, that I want to see and I want to hang out with

00:04:08.060 and sit and have a beer in the deck and go swim in the lake and do some scuba diving,

00:04:11.080 all that good stuff.

00:04:11.840 And it gets pricey to do that, to fly there, to bring your gear there, to rent tanks,

00:04:17.060 you know, to get some beers, to get some groceries, hang out and just be a dude, right?

00:04:21.860 It's expensive. 0.99

00:04:22.900 And now when you hear these ass clowns who've got six weeks off for Christmas, 0.99

00:04:26.000 plus a raise coming in the next three months, it makes you scratch your head, right? 0.99

00:04:31.300 So I'm just going to queue up a little video from an individual.

00:04:36.520 I forget his name, but I saw this in my Facebook feed today,

00:04:39.060 and I thought it was really interesting, and I'll share this with you guys tonight

00:04:41.560 for the Tuesday rant and what was really going on with this electoral reform thing.

00:04:47.120 So just bear with me here, folks.

00:04:49.020 It's just really, really, just really interesting how some of these individuals

00:04:53.420 are trying to do things on our behalf here.

00:04:56.940 who are, you know, sitting there saying they're helping us,

00:04:59.680 when the reality is, is they really don't care, okay?

00:05:04.000 So pay attention to this guy.

00:05:05.540 Listen to every word.

00:05:06.100 It's about 10 minutes long, but he's got some valid points, right?

00:05:11.920 And it just seems really, really dumbfounded how this government thinks 1.00

00:05:16.300 we're really that stupid, you know? 1.00

00:05:18.200 That's just how they're rolling, you know? 1.00

00:05:21.280 They don't think of us as citizens.

00:05:23.500 They don't think of us as, you know, decent human beings. 0.99

00:05:26.940 They just think of us as shitheads. 0.99

00:05:28.420 So listen to what this guy has to say, and we'll go from there, folks. 0.53

00:05:33.160 Adjust your audio accordingly to you if you need to.

00:05:56.940 Now, it tells you right there, too, ladies and gentlemen, allowing voters to cast their

00:06:15.300 ballots at any polling place within their writing and improving the mail-in ballot process

00:06:21.520 with both accessibility and maintaining integrity in mind.

00:06:26.280 Okay, so we've seen the fiasco that our American friends had to go through when it came to mail-in

00:06:30.520 ballots down there.

00:06:31.920 You know, we've all seen the footage of certain postal workers or certain clerks

00:06:35.060 tossing out boxes of ballots into the dumpster, right?

00:06:38.620 What do you think is going to happen up here?

00:06:41.640 Based on the poll information that's been going around Canada-wide, how Polyev's Conservatives

00:06:46.300 are getting ahead, as well as how the Liberals are going down, down, and the NDP is going

00:06:51.860 slightly down, too.

00:06:54.080 Anyway, I'll carry on.

00:06:54.920 Thank you.

00:07:24.920 Thank you.

00:07:54.920 Thank you.

00:11:21.760 buffoonery in there too now we've got some more military brass weighing in on the whole military

00:11:27.400 tampon things as apparently in some washrooms across canada especially on military bases uh there

00:11:33.000 have been men that have taken down the tampon machines outside the mill washrooms and tossed

00:11:36.660 them outside uh there's a great story here by the true north center and i will read along for you

00:11:43.080 ladies and gentlemen uh it's quite interesting how the brass in this country is worried about tampons

00:11:49.380 and worried about inclusivity yet we're sitting on the cusp of world war three and yet all these

00:11:54.800 senior officials spend more time worrying about their feelings than a few tampons in case there's a

00:11:59.660 trans man out there who needs to plug things away anyway this is from the five people of true north 1.00

00:12:04.020 uh this is dated on the 26th so it's a four-day-old story but i think you catch my drift

00:12:09.320 canadian military commander demands soldiers support men's tampons for trans inclusion

00:12:14.820 okay major an internal canadian armed forces communication shows a toronto area commanding

00:12:20.320 officer threatening soldiers who are caught throwing out tampons in the men's washroom with

00:12:25.380 discipline and urging them to support the policy for the sake of transgender non-binary members of 0.53

00:12:30.080 the forces the email leaked to the true north the commanding officer of the four cdsg greater

00:12:35.880 toronto air detachment major robert p ryan ryan complains that petty acts of protest go against canadian

00:12:43.580 armed forces policy as first reported by true north as of december 15th all federally regulated

00:12:51.200 workplaces including military bases are required under the canadian labor code to stock menstrual 0.79

00:12:57.700 products in men's washrooms as a step towards promoting inclusion right we have already had

00:13:04.880 several instances where the menstrual products and the male washrooms have been maliciously thrown in

00:13:09.640 the garbage ryan warned in an email to his regiment the petty acts of protest are simply wasteful

00:13:15.020 and not only costing the taxpayer money wait for it taxpayer money as the items will need to be 0.97

00:13:20.600 restocked how dare you oh my goodness taxpayers money ryan also is a member of the division's

00:13:28.700 diversity awareness groups especially specifically the defense advisory group for persons with

00:13:35.760 disabilities okay according to commanding officer canadian armed forces members are expected to fully

00:13:42.040 support the policy as it promotes the inclusion of non-binary and transgender soldiers you may disagree

00:13:48.080 with the decision of the government of canada on this issue however as professional members of the

00:13:51.820 defense team you need to understand that you do not have a public opinion on government policy

00:13:56.360 and are expected to fully support your fellow defense team members we have members in the garrison

00:14:00.860 who are non-binary or who have transitioned wrote ryan yeah your actions are disrespectful to them

00:14:07.820 and i would ask you to consider that you when you urge strikes you throw these products out again

00:14:12.480 take time to reflect on how your actions affect others and the cost of what will happen if you are caught

00:14:18.180 true north reached out to the department of national offense for comment and to ask what sort of

00:14:23.560 punishment soldiers caught throwing out tampons were received but did not receive a response

00:14:27.380 in time for publication since the policy was introduced several bases have seen members throwing out

00:14:33.100 products in the garbage and that was from cosmon de souza a journalist and senior research fellow

00:14:39.880 from the true north center great story by the way great story and really what the hell does it matter

00:14:48.420 what does it matter see we're sitting on the cusp of world war three here okay and i don't care what

00:14:56.640 your background is sir major captain lieutenant colonel colonel i don't care what your background is 0.99

00:15:01.760 i don't care what your education is okay stop being a fucking politician start being a leader 0.99

00:15:09.160 that's for all the majors out there that's for all the captains out there that's all for the 0.99

00:15:13.280 lieutenant colonels and colonels too take a bloody stand okay we're sitting on the cusp of world war

00:15:21.380 three here have you seen what's going on in ukraine have you seen what's going on in israel

00:15:25.140 have you heard anything from china and russia and other interests okay not to mention what's going on

00:15:31.720 iran in syria as we speak and you're worried that a handful of people non-binary or transgendered

00:15:40.300 might be offended you're worried about the taxpayer dollars when it comes to free tampons

00:15:46.940 and free menstrual products but you're not worried about the taxpayer's dollars when we don't have

00:15:51.720 enough men enough personnel fighting men and women to stand on the front line you don't worry about

00:15:58.700 the lack of equipment you don't worry about the lack of bullets you don't worry about the lack of

00:16:03.280 training time you don't worry about the logistics you don't worry about procurement but hey oh well

00:16:09.360 there better be more tampons in the men's washroom outrage oh my goodness oh we're gonna end that 1.00

00:16:29.740 from a first day perspective tampons can be effective for a sucking chest wound or certain wounds

00:16:37.520 hey they're great but to sit there and to make such a big stink about it have you seen any military

00:16:43.260 commercials on television lately promoting the armed forces

00:16:47.080 have you seen any adverts any flyers or any posters any billboards in any major cities

00:16:59.620 advertising and looking to recruit people for today's armed forces

00:17:04.260 i remember 10 years ago when stephen harper was still in charge now i'm not saying harper was a

00:17:14.380 savior but there a little more was getting done for our military at that time okay a little more not

00:17:19.480 not a great big deal but a little more a little more common sense was started to seep through the

00:17:23.160 the woodwork here um but i remember the commercials you know fight fear you know fight this fight with

00:17:31.880 the canadian forces and i remember all the jack layton's out there and all the liberal diehard saying

00:17:35.780 oh my god you're you're advertising aggression i got news for some of you people out there and i mean

00:17:41.740 you people people that clench your pearls and sit around in your hands and wait for your coffee wait

00:17:46.240 for comfort the military is an aggressive job you have to be aggressive you have to be mean you have 0.99

00:17:55.420 to be determined sometimes you got to be a prick to get things done sometimes you got to be a dick to 0.91

00:17:59.020 get things done sometimes you work for good people sometimes you work for decks that's the way it goes 0.97

00:18:04.740 and if you're a young kid can't figure out what you want to do with your life

00:18:08.860 hey three years in the army three years in the air force and three years in the navy hey

00:18:12.660 might give you something to do gives you some incentive to do something different or something

00:18:16.200 better or to stay in it's not a bad career ladies and gentlemen it's just you got too many brass

00:18:22.080 that act like politicians rather than acting like leaders right and what i just read to you

00:18:28.660 this major's outrage oh my god the outcry i can't have that kind of behavior where's your

00:18:34.680 leadership so you want to keep people in you want to retain more troops then you're not sweetening

00:18:41.440 the pot at all what incentive out there is for anybody what incentive is out there for anyone to

00:18:47.340 want to join our military now right it's obvious the only thing you care about is the inclusion mantra

00:18:53.800 the dei model diversity you know you know inclusion equity right that magic word equity

00:19:00.740 how about proper equality equality of opportunity for everybody and to stop tiptoeing around certain

00:19:08.280 political issues

00:19:09.180 stop tiptoeing around certain political issues because you want to get a few more brownie points

00:19:21.740 on your personnel file okay and firstly if there's somebody disabled in the military

00:19:29.000 they probably got hurt in the job so you got to find them something to do if that's if they

00:19:33.380 can stay in or not right i hate to sound harsh but there's a lot of people that got hurt in the job

00:19:39.180 and they don't want to be in the military anymore so you got to stop scraping the barrel to keep people

00:19:43.780 in advertise the canadian armed forces properly advertise the army advertise the air force advertise the

00:19:49.480 navy what's it going to take though it's going to take money and proper government involvement to

00:19:54.620 procure these items to keep things up and running keep things up and going stop worrying about your

00:20:00.180 procurement boards stop worrying about your bean counters start worrying about defending this country 0.53

00:20:05.120 as our military should right it's that simple but of course the simplest task becomes a real chore

00:20:11.460 because you have to have the board to look at it right all the what's the board going to say

00:20:14.900 well what's the board going to do oh my god we have board board board board board board enough

00:20:33.960 and welcome back ladies and gentlemen to episode 259 of the crusty canuck podcast the tuesday rant

00:20:41.440 like i said i promised to do a tuesday thing i don't have a title card because i just get really

00:20:45.340 tired of making them sometimes you know what i mean now um needs to say you know who i am i've seen

00:20:50.200 you you've seen me i showed you yours you showed me mine whatever anyhow i digress uh if we're going

00:20:58.240 to have leadership in this country then let's have some real leaders that major i don't think he's

00:21:03.960 leader i think he's a follower you know i don't think he really cares about the welfare of the men and

00:21:09.180 women that serve their biggest concern is the brownie points getting enough you know menstrual 1.00

00:21:14.560 female hygiene products in males washrooms because there might be somebody transitioning 1.00

00:21:18.180 right so you go to your way to make sure that those handful of people are comfortable yet you won't go

00:21:24.460 to your way to make sure that your platoon your company you know your your battalion your brigade

00:21:30.540 your battle group is good to go but hey here's some tampons like those gestures alone are insulting 0.99

00:21:37.200 to any serving member doesn't matter if you're male or female and to anybody who wants to join 0.96

00:21:43.120 so in a way you brass out there are making it really really hard for a lot of canucks

00:21:49.800 to get along to get in and to serve this country okay

00:21:54.740 and it's safe to say that the liberal government doesn't really care about the troops

00:22:00.800 doesn't care about the military you know they'll send the military for the sake of

00:22:05.880 showing up and for a parade to make everything look freaky clean but is it really look at some

00:22:11.860 of the senior officials that are hanging under their dear jobs for dear life their pensions the perks

00:22:16.300 just like the politicians it's not to think about folks especially coming to election time if it does
