00:00:00.520 Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to another broadcast of the Krusty Canuck podcast in this beautiful August 20th, 2019, as I mentioned earlier, in regards to who's your jihadi and Quebec equalizations.
00:00:13.980 So we are going to start with Mr. Jihadi Jack. It's been in the news the past couple of days.
00:00:19.660 Oh, poor little guy, you know, goes over to a nasty little war and fights in the name of jihad and Islam and the ISIS cause and all that stuff. 0.69
00:00:30.480 And people are like, oh, what are we going to do about this poor little creature?
00:00:34.260 Well, I'm going to put some links at the end of this just to prove basically what the consensus is.
00:00:41.220 Let him rot. Let him rot, ladies and gentlemen. 0.97
00:00:44.560 I don't care how old he is. I don't care what he was thinking at the time. 0.90
00:00:49.660 He went off on his own accord and his own merits, joined the jihad in Syria.
00:00:57.640 And I don't care where he was or what he was doing. 0.98
00:01:00.440 He picked up a gun to fight in the name of Islam and the ISIS mentality, where they were setting fire to journalists, raping women, throwing homosexuals off buildings, all that other great stuff. 0.99
00:01:11.980 All the name of the triumphant ISIS cause, if you call it a cause. 0.97
00:01:17.400 Basically join a terrorist organization to incur terrorism.
00:01:22.160 I don't care where his heart was.
00:01:23.840 I don't care what he believed, what he was told, what he was told he was going to do, what kind of reward he was supposed to get. 0.97
00:01:30.520 But when you see this crap in the news, why even bother trying to be sympathetic to these individuals? 0.98
00:01:37.560 Honestly. 0.99
00:01:39.200 What have you got to prove?
00:01:41.640 I'll be leaving links in the end of this podcast.
00:01:43.380 You decide for yourself.
00:01:44.880 Anyhow, tell me what you think.
00:01:45.840 You can reach me at crustybcanuck67 at gmail.com.
00:01:49.280 Or you can find me on Facebook under crustycanuck.
00:01:51.100 Or on the Instagram at cannotcrusty.
00:01:55.380 Tell me what you think.
00:01:57.360 Should we be lenient towards persons, no matter where they're from, when they go join a known terrorist organization to fight a dirty little civil war in the name of religion rather than the name of humanity?
00:02:09.920 No, you tell me.
00:02:11.300 For being war, or correction, for being at war and seeing combat and taking part in such festivities myself,
00:02:16.760 my understanding at the time is that we were doing good for the citizens of Afghanistan.
00:02:23.440 We built schools.
00:02:24.460 We helped the wells.
00:02:25.700 We helped them find their own identity, as far as we were told and from what I've seen. 0.99
00:02:30.920 But politics, like bad gas, changes all the fucking time. 0.94
00:02:35.460 And yet we still have people and politicians in this country, and I'm sure there's some in the States too, 0.99
00:02:41.860 who would just love to bring this poor guy over and go, oh, they're there.
00:02:45.760 Oh, poor guy.
00:02:47.160 Oh, you went to war for a so-called noble cause. 1.00
00:02:50.580 And look what happened to you, shithead. 1.00
00:02:53.100 You got caught. 1.00
00:02:55.320 Right?
00:02:57.080 I don't think we should give this person or any persons thereof any kind of leeway whatsoever. 0.99
00:03:02.740 I don't think he or she or they or whatever else picks up, leaves their homeland to go fight in a dirty fucking war. 0.99
00:03:12.400 Right? 1.00
00:03:12.560 Syria had its own goddamn problems, let alone you fucking creatures waving your black and white flag over bullshit and identity. 1.00
00:03:20.160 Right? 1.00
00:03:20.700 And the religious right.
00:03:22.860 History has proven time and time again, church and state does not mix. 0.76
00:03:26.580 However, we still have to reteach ourselves not to do that.
00:03:30.320 Now, I was raised in a Christian household.
00:03:33.040 I'm not saying perfectly Christian or, you know, the old man took the Bible out every time he spanked me or my mother did the same thing.
00:03:39.560 They gave me an incentive when it comes to religion.
00:03:42.640 Okay?
00:03:43.360 To choose for yourself.
00:03:44.900 What's your light, son?
00:03:46.620 What do you prefer?
00:03:47.900 Where do you find your guidance?
00:03:49.660 Where do you find your wholeness?
00:03:51.400 Or whatever other abbreviation comes up.
00:03:53.600 And by the time I hit my pre-teens, I realized religion was a con.
00:03:58.100 Now, don't get me wrong, ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:59.760 There are many good people out there who preach a Christian gospel, who preach a Jewish gospel, who preach a Muslim gospel.
00:04:07.580 And I've met wonderful Muslims.
00:04:09.200 I've met wonderful Jewish people.
00:04:10.400 I've met wonderful Christian people.
00:04:12.820 But the actions speak louder than the words.
00:04:16.400 Won't you raise a gun in the name of God or Muhammad or Judas or any other fictional character?
00:04:26.040 It's a slippery slope.
00:04:28.180 I don't know.
00:04:29.260 You know, yeah, history taught us that crusades did this and crusades did that.
00:04:33.120 But crusaders were also defending what they thought was the Holy Land and what was right for Christian peoples.
00:04:39.460 From an onslaught of a Persian Empire.
00:04:43.080 The church has influenced many good things in people's lives.
00:04:46.960 And historically many bad things in people's lives, too.
00:04:50.820 But as far as I'm concerned, my God is not short of cash.
00:04:54.960 My God does not need virgins.
00:04:57.160 And my God does not need any more bloody martyrs calling the shots.
00:05:01.680 That's my stand of religion, ladies and gentlemen. 0.99
00:05:04.060 But for this creature, Jihadi Jack, let him rot in a Kurdish prison. 0.99
00:05:07.900 Let the Kurds have their way with him. 1.00
00:05:10.960 I know I say let humanity and merit win the day, but he merited himself for a good fucking prize. 0.99
00:05:17.800 And I don't want to hear any more bleeding hearts about how this poor man. 0.99
00:05:22.320 What a poor man.
00:05:23.480 They all said the same thing about Mr. Qadar, you know.
00:05:27.840 He was 15 years old and forced to make explosives to kill enemy soldiers in Afghanistan.
00:05:32.620 And yet he's living the high and mighty life on the Canadian taxpayer's dime.
00:05:38.340 Because Justin believes a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. 0.98
00:05:43.000 Even though Mr. fucking Letts here was not a Canadian citizen. 0.98
00:05:47.300 He was a British citizen who happened to have a father that was a Canuck. 0.98
00:05:51.720 And somehow he got dual citizenship.
00:05:53.140 But it's not Canada's problem, ladies and gentlemen.
00:05:56.360 And to these politicians, if you haven't been listening to this broadcast and you're observing
00:06:01.480 and listening to what I'm saying, no.
00:06:05.380 Don't let him come back to Canada. 0.99
00:06:08.760 Okay? 1.00
00:06:09.680 We've got enough problems here with our justice system letting people get away with fucking murder. 1.00
00:06:13.580 I.e. the little Tori Stafford case when they accidentally found out that her murderer 0.99
00:06:17.600 was sitting in a goddamn fucking sweat lodge for healing purposes. 1.00
00:06:22.720 Yeah. 1.00
00:06:23.420 Okay. 0.99
00:06:24.100 Are you going to put this clown in a sweat lodge too? 0.99
00:06:26.200 Read him poetry? 0.99
00:06:27.040 Give him some crayons?
00:06:28.600 Maybe show him how to do some interpretive dance to get rid of that anger he felt 1.00
00:06:31.800 while he was a fucking jihadist? 1.00
00:06:33.980 Right? 1.00
00:06:35.040 Yeah.
00:06:36.660 Well.
00:06:38.520 I don't know.
00:06:39.200 I think Justin, if he was smart, he would say no to it. 1.00
00:06:42.320 Throw this clown in fucking prison. 1.00
00:06:44.540 And none of the taxpayers' dime. 1.00
00:06:45.620 Let him sit in Kurdish. 0.98
00:06:46.540 Or Kurdistan or whatever the hell he is. 0.97
00:06:48.700 Let him sit in a Kurdish prison. 1.00
00:06:49.800 Let the Kurds deal with him. 1.00
00:06:51.700 Right?
00:06:52.120 Because they were affected against the ISIL group anyway. 1.00
00:06:55.520 They were treated like absolute garbage. 1.00
00:06:57.140 And they were hunted down and slaughtered like fucking lambs. 1.00
00:06:59.660 Let them take their revenge out of those who committed the crimes. 1.00
00:07:03.660 Right?
00:07:05.520 Now, how sympathetic were people when Nazis escaped?
00:07:08.740 Actual Nazis.
00:07:10.340 You know?
00:07:11.360 They were being hunted down into while these criminals were in their 90s.
00:07:15.900 Right?
00:07:17.500 I'd leave a link to that right now.
00:07:18.800 But right now, I don't have time to research.
00:07:20.100 Just got home from work.
00:07:21.220 So I'm not feeling very, very inquisitive at the moment.
00:07:25.660 But I'll leave links to the end of my page.
00:07:28.100 Anyhow, tell me what you think.

00:08:12.900 And I'm just not some fly-by-night so-called alt-right fanatic. 0.99
00:08:17.020 So I've been told.
00:08:20.560 Anyhow, back to Jihadi Jack and his claims.
00:08:24.280 Well, Brian Lilly wrote a pretty good article on him in The Sun there yesterday.
00:08:31.000 And he more or less told the world, no, let him sit in prison.
00:08:36.380 I agree.
00:08:37.740 You know?
00:08:39.520 I agree with what he says and I agree with what Andrew Scheer says.
00:08:42.380 In regards to that, why should the Canadian taxpayer clothe and feed this creature?
00:08:49.260 You know, it was up to me.
00:08:50.360 Let him sit in prison.
00:08:51.200 I wouldn't let him go anywhere other than his 8x10 cell, if he has an 8x10.
00:08:56.400 Get a incestes, you know? 1.00
00:08:58.000 Or, better yet, just have him shot. 1.00
00:09:00.480 Really. 1.00
00:09:01.280 You know?
00:09:03.060 You know, Justin used to say all these things about Canadians and Canadians and Canadians
00:09:05.880 and how, you know, he'll let people keep their citizenship because he does believe in that.
00:09:11.860 You know, the typical non-answers from a non-leader.
00:09:14.480 Right?
00:09:14.940 I wonder how he's feeling right now about that when his ideas and everything comes backfiring
00:09:18.980 in front of him two months before a federal election.
00:09:22.040 Right?
00:09:22.620 Think about it, Justin.
00:09:23.540 Think about it, Christopher Freeland.
00:09:24.520 Think about it, Bill Blair.
00:09:25.440 Think about Mr. Goodale.
00:09:26.660 Think about it, Climate Barbie.
00:09:27.800 And think about it, everyone else who stood by Justin showing off his socks, letting this 1.00
00:09:32.820 kind of shit happen. 0.99
00:09:34.720 Right? 0.99
00:09:36.080 Well, oh, I'm a Canadian citizen, so therefore I should get special treatment and special
00:09:40.580 privilege.
00:09:41.000 Oh, I'm begging, please, please let me come home.
00:09:43.680 No, no.
00:09:44.260 You do your time.
00:09:45.200 You committed a crime as far as I'm concerned.
00:09:46.780 You do your time, and I don't care if you're 18, if you're 20 years old or 25 years old or
00:09:52.120 56 years old. 1.00
00:09:54.260 You did something really stupid, Buckeye. 1.00
00:09:56.320 Pay the price. 1.00
00:09:58.120 Shit simple. 1.00
00:09:59.720 Pay the fucking price. 1.00
00:10:01.400 You don't deserve any special treatment. 1.00
00:10:03.480 You don't deserve any special privileges.
00:10:06.340 You don't deserve your story to be heard as far as I'm concerned. 0.99
00:10:08.760 When you took part in an originalistic fucking unit that prided itself on setting people on 0.99
00:10:15.000 fire or cutting people's heads off with a knife and recording it and sending it to powers 0.99
00:10:20.460 that be. 1.00
00:10:22.140 Right? 0.98
00:10:24.080 There are things I witnessed and I saw as a soldier I do not want to fucking relate to 0.97
00:10:28.780 ever again. 0.92
00:10:30.080 There are things my friends have seen and done as soldiers that don't want to have a 1.00
00:10:36.160 repeat of again.
00:10:37.060 They don't want to see it again.
00:10:38.760 And I guarantee you, there are things in my mind I cannot just shake off and just put
00:10:44.560 off and turn off at the snap of a finger.
00:10:49.860 Tell you something, folks. 1.00
00:10:51.120 War is fucking hell. 1.00
00:10:53.600 Regardless of what your personal belief is. 1.00
00:10:57.380 Whether it was my grandparents fighting real fascists or an uncle I had who was actually
00:11:03.440 fighting real communists in Korea.
00:11:05.260 To some of the Vietnam vets I had the opportunity of talking to.
00:11:10.220 What they witnessed in South and North Vietnam alike.
00:11:17.220 And to what I've seen in Afghanistan.
00:11:20.340 To what my friends saw.
00:11:22.140 To what some of my comrades saw and did.
00:11:24.900 And overcame.
00:11:25.680 So a creature like this, Mr. Jihadi Jack, Mr. Jack Letts. 1.00
00:11:30.700 If by chance you're listening to this broadcast, sunshine, fuck you. 1.00
00:11:35.500 Pay your fucking dues, boy. 1.00
00:11:41.880 Honestly. 1.00
00:11:44.180 And to anybody else who wanted to join the ISIS fight and the ISIL and who wants to talk about
00:11:49.600 anything religious in the name of God.
00:11:52.300 Where you want to kill people en masse in the name of your faith. 1.00
00:11:56.300 Fuck you too. 1.00
00:11:57.220 Okay. 1.00
00:11:59.460 I've seen enough killing. 0.99
00:12:00.560 I don't want to see any goddamn more. 0.98
00:12:03.160 And I'm pretty sure my listeners out there don't want to see any more either too. 0.98
00:12:06.780 But it's time we start being lenient.
00:12:10.660 Time we stop being ever so caring and considerate to these people's feelings. 0.99
00:12:16.600 And start laying down the hammer of the fucking law. 0.99
00:12:20.440 Okay. 1.00
00:12:20.680 Like I said before, this individual took it upon himself and his own merits to go to Syria
00:12:26.920 to take part in what ISIS did.
00:12:31.480 Oh, now he wants a place to live.
00:12:33.520 Poor guy.
00:12:34.540 Same as those ISIS brides. 1.00
00:12:36.360 Oh, they want a place to live.
00:12:37.960 Oh, please, please, please. 1.00
00:12:40.400 You took it upon yourselves, ladies and gentlemen, to go over there and do this shit that was caused. 0.98
00:12:47.580 Not any democratic country is responsible for your actions. 0.99
00:12:51.680 You took it upon yourself to pick up said gun.
00:12:53.900 You took it upon yourself to spread your legs for jihadi. 1.00
00:12:57.560 You took it upon yourself to do all that shit. 1.00
00:13:02.060 And now the federal governments in Britain, Canada, the United States, 1.00
00:13:08.320 they got to foot the bill for you to come back?
00:13:10.800 No.
00:13:12.720 No.
00:13:13.360 You stay there.
00:13:14.320 You stay there.
00:13:15.560 Yeah. 1.00
00:13:15.760 You stay there and smoke garbage cigarettes, drink shit coffee, and, you know, pay your dues. 1.00
00:13:26.400 While the rest of us working class folk in these democracies, we will prosper with our freedom 1.00
00:13:31.440 because we made the right decisions with our lives.
00:13:33.260 You know, we will fight for this freedom in this country.
00:13:37.040 We will fight for people that want to go to work and want to raise their kids in peace and security.
00:13:44.180 We will fight for people that want sanity. 0.95
00:13:46.820 We will fight for people that want responsible government and not the shitheads that are in power right now 0.96
00:13:51.680 who want to give you guys coloring books and poetry lessons and interpretive dance lessons 0.97
00:13:56.600 and say, oh, you're a valued member of society.
00:13:59.640 Yeah.
00:13:59.800 Sure you are.
00:14:02.560 Anyone advocates setting fire to somebody because they're reporters 0.99
00:14:05.920 or throwing anybody off a building because they're gay 1.00
00:14:09.080 or systematically raping women because they're a different ethnic minority group. 1.00
00:14:16.180 Oh, yeah. 1.00
00:14:16.940 Yeah, you deserve such special treatment, all right.
00:14:19.200 Here's a special treatment that I would gladly give you.
00:14:22.800 762.
00:14:24.720 You know, for my non-military friends, the 308.
00:14:29.800 Cock and load and bang.
00:14:33.300 There you go.
00:14:34.420 That'll cost a Canadian taxpayer about $2.25. 1.00
00:14:37.480 $2.25 to get rid of fucking some fungus. 1.00
00:14:41.980 Pardon me if I sound so fucking violent, but I'm just really mixed on this. 0.98
00:14:45.620 I'll leave links at the bottom of the page. 0.88
00:14:48.600 But I'll let you decide.
00:14:50.180 Decide for yourselves, folks. 0.98
00:14:51.460 I don't want this clown anywhere near us. 0.98
00:14:55.220 And who knows? 0.99
00:14:56.220 Maybe there might be a handful of more ISIS people saturated in our society today. 0.98
00:15:00.240 Because Ralph Goodell assures us there's nothing to see here.
00:15:03.680 Based on one of my other podcasts there.
00:15:06.420 Right?
00:15:07.120 And Bill Blair in his infinite wisdom.
00:15:09.120 Mr. Minister of Hotel Accommodations and Refugee Status.
00:15:12.760 Rather than Safety of this Country.
00:15:14.220 I find it amazing how it's such a contradiction when it comes to guns and violence. 0.99
00:15:21.080 And yet no one worries about anyone who actually went overseas to fight a dirty little fucking war. 0.99
00:15:26.660 Right? 0.98
00:15:27.240 Then I'd spend more time worrying about guys like me and my neighbors and friends of mine.
00:15:31.440 Worrying about how our guns are locked up. 0.96
00:15:33.060 Compared to how did this clown get access to go over there. 0.98
00:15:35.640 And the weapons that he was given to use to fight his dirty little war. 0.99
00:15:39.680 Yeah.
00:15:40.700 Anyway, tell me if you want to give me an opinion or two.
00:15:43.900 Send me a suggestion.
00:15:44.960 You can reach me at KrustyBCanuck67 at gmail.com.
00:15:48.120 Or you can find me on the Facebook.
00:15:50.020 And you can find me at Krusty Canuck.
00:15:52.280 Or Correction.
00:15:53.460 Canuck Krusty.
00:15:54.700 On Instagram.
00:15:56.580 And even here on the Podbean.
00:15:57.960 You can send me a comment or two.
00:16:00.000 And of course on YouTube.
00:16:01.720 You can leave a comment.
00:16:03.680 You know.
00:16:04.000 Subscription.
00:16:05.860 Comment.
00:16:06.340 Like.
00:16:06.560 Whatever.
00:16:07.360 You know.
00:16:08.020 I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
00:16:09.340 I believe in open debate ladies and gentlemen. 0.98
00:16:10.800 But if you're going to sit there and throw crap at me. 0.98
00:16:12.760 And call me names. 1.00
00:16:13.980 I'm not going to listen to your crap. 1.00
00:16:15.480 I'm just going to delete your comment. 1.00
00:16:17.340 Right?
00:16:18.140 And.
00:16:19.720 A little spiel here for those individuals.
00:16:21.620 That used to get mad at me for.
00:16:24.160 Advertising my work in their feed.
00:16:26.260 Well let me tell you something folks.
00:16:28.400 Those individuals that want to scream and yell.
00:16:30.640 And kick their feet.
00:16:31.340 Because they don't like what I have to say.
00:16:33.320 No one has forced you to listen to what I have to say.
00:16:36.320 No one is making you listen to my work.
00:16:38.600 If you see my advertisement in your feed.
00:16:41.320 You have every choice to click on it.
00:16:43.300 Or not click on it. 0.99
00:16:45.900 Shit simple. 0.99
00:16:47.620 Right? 1.00
00:16:49.640 That's all you're going to do.
00:16:50.800 But if you're going to sit there and try to get intellectually superior with me.
00:16:53.960 Because I have an opinion on something.
00:16:56.300 That I'm pretty sure that half you folks never even seen in your life. 1.00
00:17:00.760 Don't start.
00:17:01.700 Don't even try.
00:17:02.440 Because you'll lose.
00:17:03.340 Right?
00:17:03.480 If you like what I have to say.
00:17:05.620 Hey.
00:17:05.880 Click like.
00:17:06.400 If you've got something positive to say to me.
00:17:07.620 Hey.
00:17:08.180 Send me a comment.
00:17:08.860 If you don't like what I have to say.
00:17:10.220 Well send me a comment too.
00:17:12.100 But you're just opening up the floodgates folks.
00:17:14.400 You know.
00:17:15.080 To my listeners and my fans out there alike.
00:17:16.900 This is not geared towards you.
00:17:18.540 This is just geared towards those comments I've been receiving from so-called superior intellects.
00:17:23.860 Or people who have their history professors telling them what to think and what to say.
00:17:29.380 Yeah.
00:17:29.820 I used to have teachers telling me what to think and say too.
00:17:31.860 But half of them are dead right now.
00:17:34.540 And a few I still respect. 0.99
00:17:36.320 And a few I just don't really give a shit about. 0.98
00:17:39.040 So hey. 0.99
00:17:39.660 That's life.
00:17:41.140 Anyhow.
00:17:41.480 Moving on.
00:17:42.000 Mr. Jihadi Jack.
00:17:43.040 You got no.
00:17:44.080 You got no respect here.
00:17:45.680 As far as I'm concerned.
00:17:46.820 Go.
00:17:47.780 Go cry your liberal tears elsewhere.
00:17:50.440 You know.
00:17:50.860 As far as I'm concerned. 1.00
00:17:51.560 You're rotting fucking prison. 1.00
00:17:53.660 You don't deserve any special treatment. 1.00
00:17:55.400 You made the decision to go where you wanted to go.
00:17:57.540 And do what you had to do.
00:17:58.880 And blah blah blah blah blah.
00:18:00.120 Now you got caught.
00:18:01.040 But oh no.
00:18:02.160 Please help me out.
00:18:02.900 Nope.
00:18:03.480 Be a man. 1.00
00:18:04.220 Serve your fucking time. 1.00
00:18:06.080 You know. 1.00
00:18:07.800 Like I said.
00:18:08.380 I'll give you a 7.
00:18:09.200 7.62.
00:18:10.240 Or a 308.
00:18:10.860 That's my logic.
00:18:13.000 You know.
00:18:13.420 Cut the fungus off right at the beginning.
00:18:15.340 Done.
00:18:16.660 I'd probably give more incentive to people not to join these little groups.
00:18:19.220 Right.
00:18:20.060 Anyhow.
00:18:20.360 Moving on.
00:18:21.040 Quebec equalization.
00:18:22.820 It was a headline in the Sun the other day.
00:18:27.360 Jason Kenney.
00:18:28.780 Talking to Quebec Premier about equalization.
00:18:31.040 And how the Quebec Premier thinks that Quebec is entitled to equalizations.
00:18:36.060 Because they were part of the Confederation in 1867.
00:18:40.720 Hmm.
00:18:41.640 And yet equalizations didn't start coming around until the late 50s in this country.
00:18:46.380 Ladies and gentlemen.
00:18:47.900 Right.
00:18:49.080 So yes.
00:18:49.700 Quebec joined the Confederation in 1867.
00:18:52.480 Did they sign the Constitution however in 1982?
00:18:55.220 Well as far as I remember they didn't.
00:18:59.560 Right.
00:19:01.000 And as far as I remember Pierre Trudeau and Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin
00:19:07.460 and even Stephen Harper all said themselves Quebec is a distinct society.
00:19:12.240 But they're no more distinct than us.
00:19:17.760 That's what I believe.
00:19:19.460 They're no more distinct than the Chinese Canadians that live in every city.
00:19:22.640 They're no more distinct than the Greek Canadians or Italian Canadians that helped build a lot of good construction companies in this country.
00:19:28.260 They're no more distinct than the First Nations.
00:19:31.160 No more distinct than the UNWENT.
00:19:32.880 No more distinct than the Métis.
00:19:35.020 No more distinct than people who live in North Vancouver compared to people who live in Mount Pearl, Newfoundland.
00:19:41.140 They're no more distinct than the people who constantly work on rotation and alert.
00:19:46.340 They're no more distinct than people that live in Point Peely Island.
00:19:49.600 Right.
00:19:49.780 No more distinct than Yukon.
00:19:51.520 Right.
00:19:52.180 It's uniqueness.
00:19:53.340 You know, I do have a respect for the French language and I have some respect for the French culture.
00:19:57.720 I also have respect for the people I've met in France and to the numerous Quebecer friends that I've served with in Her Majesty's military.
00:20:08.500 And yes, I didn't want to drop their Majesty's bomb there. 0.99
00:20:10.700 You know, Prince Andrew is going through a shitstorm for being a pervert. 1.00
00:20:14.060 Shame on you, Andrew. 1.00
00:20:15.140 Shame on you, fucker. 1.00
00:20:17.460 Anyhow, long story short. 1.00
00:20:20.320 I don't believe any province deserves any special treatment in this country.
00:20:26.820 Well, Alberta has contributed a lot when it comes to the oil and gas.
00:20:31.140 They've contributed a lot when it comes to natural resources, i.e. oil and gas.
00:20:36.420 As Ontario, as Quebec, and as any other province in its own right.
00:20:40.060 But I don't believe Quebec deserves any more money just because it's Quebec.
00:20:43.460 I don't believe it's a constitutional thing.
00:20:45.240 I believe it's a priority thing for all.
00:20:47.840 Why should Quebec get $13 billion and subside their 11% income?
00:20:54.740 Quebec is the highest tax province in the country.
00:20:57.900 Is it not?
00:20:59.600 You're paying taxes on your license plate.
00:21:01.380 You're paying taxes on insurance.
00:21:03.060 Your land taxes.
00:21:04.160 Your income tax.
00:21:06.880 Great social programs.
00:21:08.140 That's excellent.
00:21:08.720 You know, but why should they get $13 billion?
00:21:14.220 And Alberta has to borrow money to get the money out there. 1.00
00:21:16.940 Why does any province have to borrow money to get ahead?
00:21:20.400 Right?
00:21:21.520 You know, wasn't it Quebecers?
00:21:22.940 Well, not all Quebecers, but wasn't it Montreal and Quebec City saying no to Eastern Gateway?
00:21:30.620 You know?
00:21:31.840 No?
00:21:32.260 Energy East?
00:21:32.920 Did they not say no to Energy East because, oh, the environmental impact? 0.98
00:21:37.220 And yet, how much raw sewage is being dumped in the fucking St. Lawrence Seaway as we speak? 0.98
00:21:41.140 Right? 0.99
00:21:42.380 It's also BC saying no to certain things.
00:21:44.760 And yet, how much raw sewage from Victoria is being dumped in the Pacific Ocean?
00:21:48.940 Right?
00:21:49.900 Oh, no.
00:21:50.500 No, finally an impact there.
00:21:51.600 You know, just biohazard.
00:21:53.260 You know? 0.99
00:21:53.980 What the fuck do I know? 1.00
00:21:55.080 Oh, shit. 1.00
00:21:56.700 And yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am talking to you from Alberta. 1.00
00:22:00.420 Right?
00:22:00.740 I care about this province.
00:22:02.800 I care about Manitoba.
00:22:03.660 I care about Saskatchewan.
00:22:04.480 I care about BC, Yukon, Inuvit.
00:22:07.680 You know?
00:22:08.200 I care about Northwest Territories.
00:22:10.200 Newfoundland, Labrador, New Brunswick, PEI, Nova Scotia, La Belle Provence, and Ontario.
00:22:17.940 I was born in Ontario, folks.
00:22:20.160 And I spent the better part of 11 years out here.
00:22:22.140 And I've seen the wonders and the amazement that this province has to offer the rest of the country.
00:22:26.760 As every other province does, too.
00:22:28.280 But when it comes to our oil and gas, until we find a way to magically live off sunlight and magically live off wind power and magically live off any other means, this is what we got.
00:22:41.840 Right?
00:22:42.320 And there have been more and more environmental regulations put forth in the past 20 years in this province than there has been anywhere else.
00:22:52.660 And yet, a lot of people don't want, you know, oh, dirty Alberta oil.
00:22:56.200 But they'll take Saudi oil.
00:22:57.400 Right?
00:22:59.020 You'll take Saudi oil.
00:23:00.660 And you'll take oil from Nigeria.
00:23:02.720 And you'll take oil from Venezuela.
00:23:05.020 But you won't take your homegrown.
00:23:06.340 So, why?
00:23:09.440 Hmm?
00:23:11.080 I'll leave a link.
00:23:12.340 Brian Lilly made a good point.
00:23:14.320 And discussing legalization, especially from Jason Kenney there.
00:23:19.360 Basically stating, you know, no.
00:23:21.120 He's going to turn the pipes off.
00:23:22.760 And rightfully so.
00:23:24.700 Rightfully so.
00:23:26.560 Now, I'm not saying it's a good thing.
00:23:28.120 I'm not saying it's a bad thing either.
00:23:30.020 But, you know, you demand payout after payout after payout.
00:23:33.620 And yet, you're doing nothing to promote the longevity of said system.
00:23:37.760 Why should you be paid?
00:23:39.460 You know?
00:23:41.020 Like I've said numerous times, ladies and gentlemen, I don't care where you're from.
00:23:43.800 I don't care what you do.
00:23:44.720 I do not believe any society in this country deserves any special treatment over the other.
00:23:50.960 Right?
00:23:52.380 You know, based it on merit.
00:23:54.180 Not in the language that you speak.
00:23:56.600 Not in the culture you identify with.
00:23:58.900 Base it on merit.
00:24:00.160 You know?
00:24:00.440 Well, I don't care if Quebec is screaming about equalization.
00:24:06.680 They should have thought of that before they said no to expansion.
00:24:10.660 They should have thought of that before they put more regulations and more strangleholds on progress.
00:24:16.520 Right? 1.00
00:24:17.940 Rather than their fucking identity. 0.99
00:24:20.340 Well, I work with a lot of Quebecers in the military, ladies and gentlemen. 0.99
00:24:23.640 And I'll tell you, they're not separatists.
00:24:26.220 They're patriots.
00:24:27.340 They love their country.
00:24:28.200 You know, some call themselves French-Canadian.
00:24:31.160 Some just call themselves Canadian.
00:24:32.940 Nonetheless, they love their country.
00:24:36.700 And I had the opportunity to work on some great Quebecers overseas.
00:24:39.800 And I've worked for and with some great Quebecers up until the end of my career.
00:24:45.880 So, it's obvious the consensus is just a handful of politicians in la ville de Québec calling the shots because, oh, we want more money.
00:24:54.360 Kind of like what Jill DeSeph used to say every time there was a Harper budget. 0.99
00:24:57.980 Oh, but there's nothing for Quebec.
00:24:59.280 Nothing for Quebec. 0.98
00:25:00.580 Well, Quebec charges a lot of taxes.
00:25:03.420 Charges your citizens a lot of taxes.
00:25:05.680 So, budget from there.
00:25:09.540 Right?
00:25:10.060 Budget from there.
00:25:10.780 As far as I'm concerned, until Alberta gets its machinery going, until pipelines are created, I don't think Alberta is obligated to foot the bill for anybody.
00:25:21.240 Right?
00:25:21.740 And that's where you get responsible government stepping in and looking after things properly.
00:25:25.700 Budgeting properly.
00:25:27.120 Right?
00:25:27.560 Making sure that things are looked after in your provinces.
00:25:30.220 So, all the premieres should get together and discuss budgeting, looking after their own.
00:25:35.280 Right?
00:25:36.440 Rather than worrying about Alberta to give up more billions of dollars for the sake of someone's feelings.
00:25:41.560 Right?
00:25:42.640 Anyway, tell me what you think.
00:25:43.660 You can reach me at KrustyBCanuck67 at gmail.com.
00:25:47.000 Or, you can reach me at Facebook under Krusty Canuck.

00:25:53.720 You can find me on YouTube.
00:25:54.900 I'll post this video.
00:25:56.080 And you can find me here in the pod bean.

00:26:14.440 And please like.
00:26:16.220 The more likes, things build up.
00:26:17.860 Wonderful things lay ahead.
00:26:20.580 And, yeah, that's basically my take on Quebec.
00:26:24.780 Because I don't believe anybody deserves a special privilege or a special treatment because they're from here or from there.
00:26:30.220 You know, actually, that's funny because the other day I had a debate with somebody in regards to my status as a veteran.
00:26:36.320 And I looked at them and I said, what do you mean status?
00:26:40.200 You know, we're not carrying cards around.
00:26:42.560 You know, deserving special privileges.
00:26:45.380 Right?
00:26:45.780 I did my 20 years.
00:26:47.160 I got hurt in the job.
00:26:49.080 Paid my dues.
00:26:51.260 And I was compensated.
00:26:52.860 And I also receive a pension every month, too.
00:26:56.020 So besides working and then getting a pension, I'm doing okay.
00:26:58.780 Yeah.
00:27:00.720 But I don't deserve any special treatment because of it.
00:27:05.240 You know, I did the work.
00:27:06.460 Did my time.
00:27:07.600 Did the best I could with what I had.
00:27:09.600 And I was compensated for what happened.
00:27:13.320 Right?
00:27:13.780 I don't deserve any special treatment for that.
00:27:15.960 You know?
00:27:17.380 Don't get me wrong.
00:27:18.100 I enjoy it when people say, oh, thank you for your service and thank you for this.
00:27:21.360 Hey, that's not a problem.
00:27:22.180 But I also tell some individuals, too, especially in person, think about us come next election.
00:27:28.660 Think about the veterans.
00:27:29.840 Think about seniors.
00:27:31.160 Think about the present state of our military come next election.
00:27:34.220 And who do you think is going to do the better job to look after it?
00:27:37.340 Right?
00:27:39.340 So, that being said, ladies and gentlemen, once again, I will reiterate.
00:27:43.600 I do not believe any one society in this country deserves any special treatment.
00:27:49.500 You know, just because they speak French or English or because they speak this or speak that.
00:27:56.460 You know?
00:27:57.460 Every culture in this country is unique in its own way because they've all had something contribute to us physically and socially throughout the centuries.
00:28:08.100 First Nations are unique.
00:28:09.600 Ukrainian Canadians are unique.
00:28:10.740 European Canadians are unique.
00:28:12.000 French Canadians, you know, the Métis, the Cree, the Ojibwe, the Blood, the Blackfoot, Haidakwai, everyone, the Inuit, the Dene, everybody.
00:28:24.580 Everybody's unique.
00:28:25.680 And I'm not sitting here trying to pull the guitar and do kumbaya.
00:28:29.520 I'm just telling you how it is from my perspective.
00:28:31.960 Right?
00:28:32.100 And when it comes to equalization, I'm in full agreeance with Kenny.
00:28:38.000 No.
00:28:38.420 Or we turn the taps off.
00:28:40.260 Right?
00:28:41.180 Why not?
00:28:41.800 Let them be. 0.93
00:28:42.460 You know, the oil industry in this country, ever since Justin's election, has been screwed.
00:28:50.360 Happened under the Notley.
00:28:51.900 Right?
00:28:52.840 And now her people are trying to give Sheila Gunn-Reed a hard time for writing a book about her. 1.00
00:28:58.080 Right?
00:28:58.500 Saying it's slander and it's this.
00:28:59.820 Well, whatever. 0.96
00:29:00.400 You know, so you get these clowns stepping in, calling the shots again in regards to, you know, people's feelings rather than, you know, paying dues for their actions. 0.97
00:29:11.980 You know, you're missing the point. 0.93
00:29:13.920 So all I can say is come federal election, folks, let's really look at who we're going to put in charge.
00:29:18.820 Let's have people to tell Quebec.
00:29:20.660 And let's have some Quebecers out there.
00:29:22.200 To my Francophone listeners, honestly, like what is going on in that province when it comes to this leadership?
00:29:29.100 Demanding things, you know? 0.96
00:29:32.680 To my Quebec listeners, who are these clowns calling the shots for you? 0.98
00:29:37.220 Honestly. 0.99
00:29:38.400 You know?
00:29:39.120 One would, it's safe to assume that everybody in every province of the country wants their liberty, wants to pay their fair share of tax, but wants to enjoy the benefits of their labors.
00:29:48.920 Without relying on someone else to look after something all the time.
00:29:52.080 You know what I mean?
00:29:53.920 Right?
00:29:55.240 But, yeah, I pose a question to my Quebec listeners out there.
00:29:58.020 What do you guys think?
00:29:59.760 Please, send me a question or a comment.
00:30:02.100 You know, KrustyBCanuck67 at gmail.com.
00:30:06.960 Facebook under Krusty Canuck.
00:30:08.820 Instagram at Canuck Krusty.
00:30:10.220 And here on The Bean and on YouTube.
00:30:12.340 So, I don't know what else to say, other than, you know, we still have lackluster politics. 1.00
00:30:17.720 Justin is still denying any wrongdoing, because, you know, of course, he likes to think his shit don't stink. 1.00
00:30:24.900 Well, that's what happens when you're wearing a silver spoon in your mouth and a silver feather in your ass. 1.00
00:30:29.320 You think you're invincible. 1.00
00:30:31.440 You know, sock boy, cock boy, whatever. 0.98
00:30:33.700 You know. 0.96
00:30:34.960 But, anyway, I've been Krusty Canuck.
00:30:36.740 Thank you for paying attention.
00:30:39.220 And before I go, please consider donating, if you can.
00:30:43.460 If you give me a $5 to $10 donation every month here on the Patreon page of The Podbean, give me your particulars.
00:30:52.420 I will mail you a T-shirt of your choice for my Teespring line.
00:30:56.420 And if you'd just like to give a donation, that's great, too.
00:30:59.420 If you just want to buy a shirt or an item for my merchandise, that's great, as well.
00:31:03.280 But note this, every time you donate or every item purchased, 30% of each donation and item sold,
00:31:12.800 I will graciously give to the Calgary Veterans Food Bank and help them along the way,
00:31:18.560 because a lot of veterans out there need to eat.
00:31:21.720 And, in a way, it's my way of giving back to the community, too.
00:31:24.600 So, please, don't hesitate.
00:31:26.180 Consider donating, subscribing, liking, sharing, all that good stuff.
00:31:30.060 And I've been Krusty Canuck.
00:31:33.440 And I'm trying to get a podcast and a video up at least every week, if time permits.
00:31:37.700 I'm not working too late.
00:31:39.320 But I'll try to get some product out there at least once or twice a week, so you can all tune in and enjoy.
00:31:45.040 Anyway, I've been Krusty Canuck.
00:31:46.660 This has been my report for the 20th of August, 2019.
00:31:53.000 Take care of yourselves.
00:31:54.000 Look after your loved ones.
00:31:54.900 And remember, folks, humanity and merit wins the day.
00:31:59.920 See you next time.
00:32:01.100 Bye for now.
