00:01:50.980
what the f right now what the f or better yet you know what the fuck new army logo now
00:01:58.580
i've read a few articles in regards to that since i saw it uh this morning
00:02:03.900
advertised one of my news feeds when i uh when i work i listen to podcasts listen to news
00:02:08.520
uh broadcasts what have you and uh there's a whole ad and everything that goes with it too
00:02:13.460
and don't fret to my veterans my serving members and my fellows out there
00:02:19.060
apparently that's not the logo now i'll get to that shortly uh there's a couple of pages i found
00:02:25.300
on facebook uh brought to you by the canadian army their facebook page more or less stated it's not
00:02:30.520
the new logo but when you look around and see why they put this together because there's a new
00:02:35.940
military pattern coming out of the canadian uniform too it's multi cam thing uh similar to the old
00:02:42.820
cad pats not as green mind you but needless to say it's a new uniform that's going to be in the
00:02:47.920
works and it should be on the soldiers backs roughly about 2045 just kidding just you know
00:02:55.960
how canadian procurement works in this country especially my fellow veterans out there who know
00:03:00.360
how the procurement process works uh but i'll read a little story here uh for you shortly uh but uh
00:03:07.460
when you look at this this logo okay honestly when you look at something like that now take a look
00:03:14.300
at that digital uh centerpiece with the maple leaf in canada what does that look like to you
00:03:21.300
to me it looks like a moose taking a dump or somebody holding up livestock now regardless of
00:03:27.800
what you think about it i think the powers that be have done more than enough to screw with our military
00:03:32.100
uh over the past 10 years let alone the past 30 years okay there's some people i still talk to
00:03:39.060
that were serving uh during the decade of darkness when funding was gone to hell and yet peacekeeping
00:03:45.300
mission after peacekeeping mission do more with less do more with less do more with less uh human
00:03:49.640
rights were an issue there were some sexual assault issues there were some other issues all
00:03:55.340
stemming from money being spent here when a mission spent there yada yada yada and i'm going to
00:04:01.020
arrange an interview with somebody who knows uh all who well actually he's all too familiar with that
00:04:06.700
kind of procedure anyhow i'm digressing here but like i said you know uh what the f new army logo
00:04:12.100
so like i said there's a story there from the canadian army page on the facebook that explains every
00:04:16.960
little detail of what they're doing i'll get to that shortly but it surprised a lot of people because
00:04:22.280
considering all the woke isms that are going on out there right now considering all the bs that's gone
00:04:27.040
into our military with politics and lack of spending lack of
00:04:31.020
procurement uh because there's so many damn boards and so many damn bureaucrats are calling
00:04:35.380
the shots when it comes to getting a simple thing like a truck tire or a new helicopter up in the
00:04:40.000
air there's all these different boards and steps that our government takes to get something out
00:04:44.380
and get something modernized for our military okay our navy's hurting our air force is hurting and
00:04:49.780
our army is hurting too and regardless of how you personally think about the grooming issue
00:04:54.360
like the mullets long hair different colored hair yes i know a grown-ass man can pull a trigger
00:05:00.140
and still have long hair and do his job okay but when i look at the military like a dressing
00:05:05.440
department there's a certain degree of professionalism that goes into grooming
00:05:09.220
keeping your hair short shoulders up back and down chin up chest out that kind of thing being proud
00:05:14.900
being proud to serve your country and if you're going to join the military and you somehow cannot
00:05:22.780
function or be proactive with a short haircut and there's something wrong maybe the military is not
00:05:32.280
for you okay and the way the military has been treating people i would say the past 10 years it's it's
00:05:41.320
pretty shitty because you're finding a lot of senior brass out there a lot of so-called educated officials
00:05:46.800
making these brash decisions in regards of wokeness and progressive progressivism
00:05:52.380
and the thing is when you have a military you want them to be a fighting force you want them to be
00:05:58.080
ready to go at a moment's notice and have the ability to do it too without worrying about squabbling
00:06:02.240
about these little social justice warrior tidbits and i admit when i first saw that logo i'm like what
00:06:08.020
the hell are they thinking of next what else are they going to screw with next right how many more
00:06:13.280
times do our troops have to get it up the chuff how many times do veterans have to get it up the
00:06:17.340
chuff too right why don't we have leaders in this country that really give a shit about what's going
00:06:24.240
on you know and you've heard me ramble on numerous times that a lot of them don't a lot of them looking
00:06:29.380
after their pensions a lot of them looking after uh their own self-worth a lot of them looking after
00:06:33.420
their images and their egos because there's still quite a bit a few leaders out there that really
00:06:39.240
really get their jollies off the sound of their own voice
00:06:43.280
and can we afford that ladies and gentlemen not anymore so i think it's time for a change
00:06:48.160
stay updated and follow crusty canuck on facebook twitter gab telegram youtube and podbean
00:07:00.180
and welcome back ladies and gentlemen to episode 276 of the crusty canuck podcast for this beautiful
00:07:07.800
friday may 3rd 2024 as the title card says what the f new army logo now i'm your host crusty thanks
00:07:16.560
for coming back ladies and gentlemen now i'll just queue up a little story here the canadian army page
00:07:20.320
put together uh for uh its subscribers just to make sure everything is copacetic everything is good
00:07:28.360
to go and i will just read it for you you know i like this logo a lot better i'll just keep the page
00:07:35.840
but uh i i think you'll see my point once i finish reading this and share my two cents worth
00:07:41.920
uh regardless of the subject matter or not right so i'll just get this here excuse me
00:07:50.500
like i said it's been a long day so i'm just kind of uh breathing a little too heavy here too i'll leave
00:07:57.100
this link in my uh description for you ladies and gentlemen you can read at your leisure right so
00:08:03.240
but uh canadian army has not changed its official logo we remain proud of our official emblem the icon
00:08:10.260
launched today is a supplementary design only that will be used in the bottom left corner of certain
00:08:15.900
communications products and in animations for videos okay so you know what's funny is that this this
00:08:23.480
article here this statement is about three hours old and uh the logo i showed you came out this
00:08:28.860
morning so they've had all day to scuttle around and scurry around thinking oh my god what do you go
00:08:35.380
my god we're gonna get some pr in here we gotta fix this the thing being why don't you just use a qr
00:08:42.680
code if you want something at the bottom of your videos or just shrink that logo that's right there
00:08:50.340
there's nothing more patriotic and prestigious about that simple logo right there the three
00:08:55.560
leaves cross sword and the crown now regardless how you feel about the monarchy or not that's still
00:09:00.560
screaming canada as far as i'm concerned uh that piece of garbage that i showed you earlier on the title
00:09:06.080
card what exactly is that modern art you know did the artist sit there and decide i want to create some
00:09:14.780
kind of tapestry to make the moose and the people come together so we can understand canada as a very
00:09:22.100
very multicultural place right and that way it'll intimidate any enemy that ever wants to screw with
00:09:28.060
us in the name of artistic and digital digital high high five you know anyway i'm just i shake my head at
00:09:37.200
that logo but regardless of what uh people think of it um according to the canadian army it's not going to be
00:09:44.700
used which is good that's a good thing so we'll just leave it at that ladies and gentlemen i'm just
00:09:49.240
not going to uh dwell in it as i thought i was going to uh today but uh it makes you think it makes
00:09:58.600
you think a lot who's in charge still right somebody come up the idea in some office in ottawa
00:10:05.040
so let's change this around let's change that around you know let's try to get this
00:10:09.180
let's try to reinvent the wheel again and how many times we've seen that in our military history
00:10:17.720
let's reinvent the wheel let's let's just buy old kit for new kit like harjeet sajan did back a few
00:10:22.560
years back where we got the old f-18s to replace our our old f-18s in any parts right to modernize
00:10:28.120
he was he was also bragging about what he did in afghanistan too which ended up being total bs
00:10:33.760
right but uh i i think you see what i what i mean here where this is going okay it's not going
00:10:42.080
anywhere positive it's not going anywhere uh a definitive it's just in limbo so somebody in
00:10:49.340
ottawa is trying to save face for putting this logo up now i'm happy there's new uniforms coming to
00:10:53.680
our troops i would be happier if there was new equipment and new training formats and a little
00:10:59.920
more uh drill and discipline per se okay like i said earlier i don't care if you got long hair
00:11:07.560
you know you can still pull the trigger that's fine that's the excuse i get for some of these
00:11:11.520
wokey individuals or these new fantangle uh socialist veterans who believe in kumbaya rather than taking
00:11:18.600
a proper stand right in the name of wokeness and inclusion diversity right the military is something
00:11:27.940
you should be proud of uh but when you show up to work with your hair all long and ratted and
00:11:32.480
you look like somebody from an mtv video um how can you take any that seriously honestly and you know
00:11:40.920
i do believe each their own okay but when you sign up for a few years to national service when you
00:11:48.100
sign the dial line say yes i'll serve my country yeah you wear the uniform of the day and that means uh
00:11:54.840
clean shaven that means trimmed and groomed properly that means showing up to work and

00:13:36.480
with this story too i'm not going to dwell on the whole logo thing i'm just so tired of it really
00:13:41.000
because it was just oh my god it's dry in here it's just so flabbergasting just all these great
00:13:47.260
geniuses who get together in these cubicles and try to decide things to make it feel special and
00:13:52.000
better and inclusive what a shit show but in up in uh in uh recent news too uh in regards to chinese
00:14:01.400
interference too there has been quite a bit of stir in regards to it now i'll just read a ctv article
00:14:08.240
here ladies and gentlemen i'll add it here too um basically they did find interference but they're
00:14:17.260
not going to really really worry about it you know i mean because you know there's nothing to worry about
00:14:20.680
typical you're typical nothing to see here folks you know all that good stuff nothing to see here just
00:14:26.420
you know what if what ifs you know but there is a questions here from ctv uh in regards to five
00:14:34.380
areas canada's foreign interference commissioner says needs more investigation so um they figure
00:14:41.900
that two writings may have been impacted by the 2021 election too so i'll read a few paragraphs here
00:14:48.700
commissioner marie josey hoag uh released her interim report examining foreign election interference on
00:14:54.020
friday including that while chinese meddling did occur in a few writings now it did occur so you can say
00:15:00.560
there was interference okay it did not affect the overall outcome of canada's 2019 and 2021 general
00:15:07.620
elections but there was interference so okay so if it didn't interfere then why is it why are we
00:15:15.660
talking about it in wrapping up the first phase of her work which focused on determining whether china
00:15:21.680
russia and other foreign actors interfered in the last two federal votes the flow of official information
00:15:26.280
and how the government responded to what it knew hoag noted a handful of areas that require more
00:15:31.440
examination before she can make conclusions or recommendations here are the five elements of
00:15:36.520
foreign election interference that hoag said she needs to further probe during the second phase of the
00:15:41.740
public inquiry before be able to pronounce on them okay so nothing to see here folks
00:15:47.240
vulnerability of nomination races right question of threshold to alert canadians right how to counter
00:15:58.200
disinformation that those words are so trendy disinformation misinformation basically how to
00:16:04.340
how to counter bullshit okay how about you just say it that way how intelligence is communicated and
00:16:10.580
shared now we've all heard about the big stink that ceases made with the federal government the federal
00:16:14.660
government not seeing this ceases not saying that or showing this you know the prime minister not
00:16:19.340
seeing anything that comes across his desk which is bullshit unless it has to do with taxes or photos
00:16:24.060
ops but that's a different story and attributing to interference to a state so what i'm going to do
00:16:30.940
is i'm going to leave this article in the description for you ladies and gentlemen they're more or less
00:16:36.100
saying there is interference but there's nothing really worry about but there's still interference but
00:16:39.900
nothing really worry about so basically it's just a shit show really that's that's all it is it's just a shit
00:16:46.580
show you know they can't make an honest answer they can't stand by what they're saying and ceases has said
00:16:53.840
before there is people getting involved in this the prime minister just ignored it right so in the case of
00:17:02.240
pandong where 21 international students were bused to his election district to vote
00:17:09.300
international students though mind you not canadian citizens just students not permanent residents not
00:17:15.920
citizens students right there's controversy in that too so it makes you think ladies and gentlemen
00:17:22.620
who is doing what here now we've all heard the prime minister talk about how much he loves china's
00:17:27.860
basic dictatorship right we all heard that before oh he just loves that i can turn their economy around
00:17:33.400
on time they get their green energy yeah what green energy steven gabole likes to give them coal
00:17:39.780
right likes to give india coal too and there's also allegations there's also some allegations in regards
00:17:48.300
to india might be meddling too because of the calistani person that was killed last summer now they've
00:17:54.040
arrested three individuals in that case that's ongoing the rcmp doesn't give away too much
00:17:58.500
information because they want to jeopardize their evidence apparently no i i don't get it no
00:18:04.280
anyhow the past week has been really interesting ladies and gentlemen when it comes to canadian politics
00:18:10.480
canadian diplomacy how we sit in the international stage okay now when i was a soldier you know i'm not
00:18:17.740
going to put on my helmet and tell you great war stories and everything but we had professional decorum
00:18:22.100
right when you wore the uniform you're ambassadors of canada didn't matter where you were you're
00:18:28.520
ambassadors you took pride in what you did and we looked up to our leadership it didn't matter if i
00:18:33.720
was a recruit or a private you look up to your master jacks you look up to your sergeants and your
00:18:40.080
master jacks and sergeants should look up to the warrant officers and sergeant majors accordingly
00:18:43.540
but then when you're being an nco and you're looking up to the next the next rank or the next appointment
00:18:51.320
senior nco should be able to look up to senior officers to make the right decisions as well
00:18:56.480
and i would say the past few years senior officers have done nothing but sit in the fence
00:19:02.360
and promote the wokey the wokey shuffle the the woke shuffle lack of a better term
00:19:10.160
just to save face and save their careers and we're seeing everyone else in the same position
00:19:16.740
save face and save careers yagmeet singh is basically going to okay the budget okay
00:19:22.860
there's a socialist right there who wears rolexes and gets custom-made suits there's a guy who
00:19:30.740
sidesteps every chance he gets just to save face and collect his golden pension after six years
00:19:34.940
of being uh the ndp leader and you're seeing a lot of people trying to say their job save face
00:19:41.920
they did the same thing during the pandan they did the same thing during every other
00:19:48.460
and you and i and everybody else deserves better ladies and gentlemen now it was kind of corrected
00:19:58.120
here on tonight's show in regards to this new logo but there was obviously some sidestepping there
00:20:04.700
and some second guessing oh i guess we better not put this out here maybe we shouldn't promote this
00:20:09.200
right this is coming from the same military that's really really hurting for recruits right now
00:20:15.900
and yet look how they're dealing with it has anybody out there seen a brand new uh commercial
00:20:26.240
none and i remember the last batch of commercials that were on television
00:20:38.100
that were brought to us by harper's conservatives were really in your face and really motivational
00:20:46.040
and they displayed teamwork and they esteemed prestige fight with the canadian forces fight tyranny
00:20:52.880
fight fear fight with the canadian forces and i remember both opposition parties ndp and liberals alike
00:20:58.720
oh my god that's too aggressive oh my god that's just too that you're just promoting violence
00:21:12.740
now you don't associate violence with firefighters but they have a violent job too
00:21:19.600
they have to get in there be aggressive put their life in danger to put out a flame
00:21:24.480
and that flame can be very very unpredictable depending on what it's burning what it's feeding
00:21:30.440
off of is it chemical is it from fuel is it burning is it is it wood and who knows what can
00:21:36.540
happen so you got to be aggressive to get the job done cops have to take out the bad guy to get the
00:21:43.260
job done soldiers sometimes have to get the bad guys to get the job done
00:21:48.840
and the least your leadership can do the least any leadership can do is to step aside and let the
00:21:59.380
military do its thing we've had too much micromanagement over the past few years
00:22:04.380
and every every aspect of our lives we've had too much oversight too much overreach
00:22:11.220
and just too much bullshit like you've heard me ramble on about the leadership in this country
00:22:17.220
and i'm going to keep doing it and i expect you my wonderful audience do the same too when it comes
00:22:21.300
to your leadership my american friends talk to your state talk to everybody you can put them on the
00:22:27.600
spot same thing here my friends in northern perspective radio reactions same thing they tell
