Summary
The Israeli and U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear weapons program has done a fantastic job of exposing how many on the Canadian political left are not actually pro-Canadian, they are just anti-American and anti-West in general. These people pretend that all their political stances come from a place of love for Canada, wanting to do the best thing for Canada as a country. No, a lot of these people just like doing the opposite of the Americans. And I m going to tour you through their responses not so we can learn anything, but more so so we get to point and laugh because I don t think there is anything to learn from these people. We get to at least just see how little they truly know.

Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. We got a big show today, guys. The Israeli and U.S. strikes on the
00:00:08.540
Iranian terror state's nuclear weapons program has done a fantastic job of exposing how many people
0.85
00:00:15.780
on the Canadian political left are not actually pro-Canada, they're just anti-American, and in
00:00:22.360
some cases, they're anti-West in general. These people pretend that all their political stances
00:00:28.420
come from a place of love for Canada, wanting to do the best thing for Canada as a country.
00:00:35.060
No, a lot of these people just like doing the opposite of the Americans, and I am going to tour
1.00
00:00:41.220
you through their responses today, not so we can learn anything, but more so so we can just point
00:00:47.460
and laugh, because I don't think there is anything to learn from these people. They don't know anything.
00:00:52.360
We get to at least just see how little they truly know. But before I get into it, guys,
00:00:57.860
I just want to remind you, if you like my show, make sure to leave a like on this video. If you
00:01:03.180
are not yet a subscriber to the channel, make sure to hit the subscribe button. I am trying to get to
00:01:09.120
100,000 subscribers by mid-December of this year, or I owe all my friends dinner. It was a very stupid
00:01:16.640
bet I made, but I've made it, and now I'm trying to achieve that goal before I get to mid-December.
00:01:21.920
And then also leave a comment on what you think about this topic in general. But without further
00:01:27.660
ado, let's get into it and start with one of our favorite leftists. And don't worry, we will be
00:01:33.980
getting to the Liberal Party and the NDP too, not just going after nutcase activists. But let's start
00:01:39.340
off with our favorite former global news journalist and pink slip collector, Rachel Gilmore, who said,
00:01:47.380
in the aftermath of the strikes, just watch Netanyahu praise the US strikes as a victory for
00:01:53.240
quote unquote civilization, which is just so effing racist. My God. How is it racist? How is going
00:02:03.660
after the Iranian nuclear program racist? How is praising as a win for civilization racist? By the way,
00:02:11.860
the Iranian people, the Persian population of Iran, doesn't like the Islamic theocracy that is
0.97
00:02:18.720
currently ruling them. But apparently it's racist to actually want terrorists not to get nuclear
0.65
00:02:26.660
weapons. But here is somebody's response to her, a journalist from Montreal named Natasha Montreal,
00:02:34.660
And she says in response, Rachel Gilmore, in response to Natasha Montreal, says, creating a
00:02:59.260
dichotomy of the civilized and the barbaric is an act of racist dehumanization that can be a precursor
00:03:06.760
to genocide and other mass atrocity. Read an effing book, Natasha. If you did read a book, you would
00:03:14.180
only conclude that Rachel Gilmore was extremely stupid. It's just idiobabble coming out of Rachel
0.53
00:03:20.580
Gilmore. Oh, to even put a value judgment on the Iranian government as being uncivilized and barbaric
0.72
00:03:27.560
is somehow racist. And it's leading to dehumanization that is a precursor for genocide or other atrocities.
00:03:35.180
No, this is not like the Nazi regime or the Turkish government trying to dehumanize Jews or Armenians
00:03:44.800
or like the, you know, like other groups trying to dehumanize others so that they can basically
00:03:50.980
justify killing them. That's not what happened here. Israel and the United States basically killed
00:03:57.200
nobody. They went after the heads of the Iranian military who are involved in training and funding
00:04:04.320
terrorists around the Middle East and around the world in general. The Houthis in Yemen, Hamas in
00:04:09.560
Gaza. You have the Hezbollah in Lebanon. This is a terror state and they killed maybe 300 people who
00:04:17.920
were connected with the regime, whether it's from the military side or the nuclear weapons program side.
00:04:23.340
And they were obviously trying to build a nuclear weapon. Uranium enrichment is only required to be
00:04:28.920
3% for civilian power. And for medical purposes, you only need uranium enrichment to be at 6%.
00:04:36.660
The Islamic Republic of Iran was at 60% enrichment. That is only to get a nuclear weapon. There was no
00:04:44.780
legitimate purpose. No, there's no legitimate reason to be at 60% unless you're making a nuclear weapon.
00:04:49.880
And it's fantastic that Donald Trump pulled the trigger and hit the nuclear facility below that
00:04:56.240
mountain. I forget what the actual mountain was called. They hit it with a bunch of massive bombs
00:05:00.320
going through the ventilation shaft and destroyed the entire thing. The US military did a fantastic job
00:05:05.760
and I'm happy they did it. But if you're Rachel Gilmore, it's very bad because to even go after the
00:05:11.480
Iranian regime is to delegitimize them. And she lives in such a morally relativistic world that she
0.64
00:05:18.260
actually cares about the feelings of the Iranian mullahs who are both oppressing their own people
1.00
00:05:23.820
and would love to set off a nuclear bomb in any state that they don't like to simply take as many
00:05:29.260
people out in the world with them because they would not live very long after setting off a bomb.
00:05:34.320
But because their ideology is martyrdom, they would totally do it.
00:05:38.420
But sorry guys, we have more Rachel Gilmore to talk about. This is a video that she posted very
00:05:47.260
recently responding to what had gone on, talking about the press conference that Donald Trump had
00:05:53.680
put on in the aftermath of the very successful operation. Check this out.
00:05:57.660
With everything happening in Iran, you might be feeling scared, overwhelmed, and confused. But I
00:06:03.320
got you. I'm a journalist and I spent the last few days researching.
00:06:09.160
She's not a journalist, guys. She's just not a journalist. What is this to? Who's scared?
00:06:14.800
Is this video made for Ayatollah Khomeini? Is he scared sitting in his bunker right now? I guess
00:06:20.720
she made this for him and the other Islamofascists who currently live in Iran. Most Iranian people
1.00
00:06:27.100
probably don't care because they don't like the government. Who's scared? Some Portland city
00:06:33.240
councillor, some Victoria city councillor needed this video to be made as a safety blanket because
00:06:39.320
they're very concerned that terrorists are dying.
00:06:41.340
Being reading and talking to experts about this situation. And what I learned blew my mind in
00:06:46.800
several ways that you've really got to hear about.
00:06:49.500
Dude, she probably had her mind blown by the existence of microwave popcorn.
1.00
00:06:54.800
No, you did not have your mind blown. You had your biases confirmed. She would have her mind blown
00:07:04.120
There are three big questions I'm going to answer for you in this video. First,
00:07:08.900
what's the deal with Iran's nuclear program? And did the US attack accomplish anything?
00:07:14.000
Next, we'll talk about some analysis of why this might have happened and what Israel or the US
00:07:20.220
They don't want a terror state that funds terrorism everywhere to have a nuclear weapon. It's not that
00:07:27.360
And finally, we'll talk about what could happen next. And this is...
00:07:30.840
Nothing happened. The Islamic Republic knows that it can't strike back and has
1.00
00:07:34.540
literally coordinated attacks with the US where they're going to fire a few missiles at them that
00:07:39.620
the US easily shoots down so they get to pretend they're fighting back.
00:07:42.580
Where things kind of make my blood run cold, but not necessarily in the way that you'd expect.
00:07:47.920
I'd like to give a special thank you to Dr. Besma Mamani, a professor of political science at the
00:07:52.620
University of Waterloo, who I peppered with a million questions earlier today. She is an award
00:07:57.920
winning academic who has written or collaborated on more than 14 books. And she's an expert on
00:08:03.080
Middle East politics. Okay, let's dive in. We were all stunned. And let's be honest,
00:08:08.200
freaked out when we heard this announcement on Saturday night.
00:08:12.260
We were freaked out that the Islamic regime was not going to have nuclear weapons? Wow,
0.99
00:08:16.920
that's news to me. I knew people only celebrating. Yeah, there were some idiots both on the left and
00:08:22.860
the right who were saying, this is terrible. It's going to lead to World War III. No, it's not.
00:08:27.880
It is just not. The Islamic regime is a tinpot dictatorship trying to get weapons of mass
1.00
00:08:33.620
destruction. The only way there's going to be World War III is if they have the equipment to fight it.
00:08:37.760
You have to just deny them the equipment and nothing will happen.
00:08:41.260
The strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities have
0.98
00:08:49.240
been completely and totally obliterated. So let's start with a huge question. Because
00:08:54.180
Prime Minister Mark Carney put out a statement calling Iran's nuclear program a, quote,
00:08:58.460
grave threat to international security. He's right. The rest of his statement's ridiculous,
00:09:03.740
which we'll be getting to later. But he is right. Even the UN body that studies the, like,
00:09:11.640
basically, like, goes around and checks on different nuclear programs, like the watchdog,
00:09:16.680
I guess, they're usually very soft on Iran. Even they agreed that Iran was enriching uranium,
00:09:25.740
And said U.S. military action was, quote, designed to alleviate that threat. But, uh,
00:09:31.660
was that threat real? Doesn't really sound like it. A key ingredient for nukes is enriched uranium.
00:09:38.180
But there are also non-military reasons to enrich uranium, like for nuclear power.
00:09:43.360
You only need 3% enrichment for that. They had 60.
00:09:46.620
Enrich uranium in a machine called a centrifuge, and it takes a really, really long time. Now,
00:09:52.440
the degree to which you need to enrich uranium for civilian purposes is really low. We're talking,
00:09:57.880
like, 2% to 4% around that range. To use it in, like, a nuclear bomb, you have to enrich it to 90%.
00:10:08.080
Wow. Well, I guess, well, I guess it doesn't mean anything then. They were at 60%.
00:10:13.760
Wow. Oh, like, that's fine. They're only literally 20 times higher than what they need for civilian use.
00:10:23.020
And they're only 50% away from getting to the 90% they need for the nuclear weapon.
00:10:29.600
I wonder what they were doing. Who could, what do you guys think? What do you think that they were
00:10:36.180
trying to do? I can't figure it out. Maybe they were, maybe they just developed a new type of
00:10:40.940
nuclear facility for power for civilians that requires it to be at 60%. Maybe that's what was
00:10:47.200
going on there. Maybe it was just a new fangled way of being able to heat people's homes, even though
00:10:52.940
it is a natural and a gas and oil and gas superpower. And they can easily meet all of their energy needs
00:10:59.160
themselves through their own oil and gas industry. It is patently absurd that they were trying to just
00:11:05.380
build something for nuclear power. They just really care about climate change, guys.
00:11:08.900
And something happens when you're enriching uranium and you hit 60%. The time it takes to get from 60%
00:11:15.800
to 90% is way shorter than how long it takes to get to that initial 60%. Like Besma told me,
00:11:22.840
we're talking years for that first chunk and then with everything.
00:11:27.180
So, so yeah, so everyone was absolutely correct. And that was, that was one of her video cut off.
00:11:32.460
Maybe she uploaded part two somewhere else. It doesn't matter. The whole thing goes into justifying
00:11:37.860
basically sidestepping the idea that the, is the Iranian government was doing it. I believe from
00:11:45.600
someone telling me basically Rachel Gilmore went on to claim, well, they could have easily gotten to 90%
00:11:50.720
by now, but they hadn't yet. So maybe they didn't actually, they weren't trying to develop it because
00:11:56.100
they could have done it and they didn't. They will absolutely do it. The whole point is you can
00:12:00.460
keep it at 60. You can ramp up to 90 when you have everything together to make the weapon. There's
00:12:04.700
other components that are required. You don't just get it to 90 and then huck it like a football.
00:12:09.840
You need to do other things. But this is the kind of, I would say, obvious cluelessness of people on the
00:12:17.080
left, of people pretending to not know what's going on here. Here is one of our favorites,
00:12:25.720
Laura Babcock, reacting also to the press conference with Donald Trump. She quote tweeted
00:12:31.500
this person named Don Winslow says, four morons, they look like a Saturday night live skit.
00:12:38.180
A Saturday night live skit that prevented a terror regime from getting a nuclear weapon. And Laura
00:12:43.620
Babcock says Obama could do this alone, except he couldn't, except he couldn't because he was letting
00:12:50.920
the Iranians develop nuclear weapons. He didn't care. He wouldn't let Israel strike them. He would
0.99
00:12:57.440
never strike them for doing it. He signed the JCPOA, the ridiculous Iran nuclear agreement that
00:13:03.820
Donald Trump rightfully tore up when he first got into office as president in his first term in 2017.
00:13:09.900
And now he has fully ended it by just hitting them with a bunch of bunker buster bombs so that they
00:13:15.540
can't use those facilities under mountains anymore. Perfect. Good. These people are, again, it's learned
00:13:24.980
cluelessness. These people know better, but they have learned to be clueless for partisan reasons.
00:13:31.120
Laura Babcock, reacting to another big lefty account on social media, Roddy. Roddy says,
00:13:37.060
if you believe that Trump has gotten Israel and Iran to agree to a ceasefire, you're an idiot.
00:13:41.520
And Laura Babcock says, I may have alluded the same to somebody. And yeah, technically Israel and Iran
00:13:48.480
are still attacking each other post-ceasefire. Iran broke it first, then Israel fired back.
00:13:53.060
But yeah, that's not really, I don't think that this is like, again, they're just nitpicking
00:13:59.920
things going on with, they're just nitpicking everything about the operation because they got
00:14:05.540
nothing. Here is Roddy also saying, choke on it, America, in response to this account saying,
00:14:10.760
U.S. military now briefing troops that its strike on Iran will, quote, likely result in counterstrikes
00:14:15.780
on U.S. bases and facilities, quote, unquote, in the Middle East and, quote, likely activate Iran,
00:14:21.600
another foreign terrorist organization sells abroad, including in the U.S. to conduct strikes
00:14:26.740
against, it says, U.S. citizens and facilities, it goes on to say. And into that, to the Iranian
0.70
00:14:36.080
terror regime threatening the United States and the West in the aftermath of people rightfully
0.99
00:14:41.880
taking away their nuclear weapons program, he says, choke on it. These people are absolutely
00:14:49.480
insane. Here's Roddy saying this, when we're about to get to the mainstream parties in Canada
00:14:55.780
responding. Roddy says, this time it's different. This time the U.S. wasn't attacked. This time
00:15:03.280
the U.S. was the attacker. Okay. I don't care that they're the attacker. They're attacking for
00:15:10.780
the right reasons. It's a preemptive strike, again, against a terrorist funding regime that
00:15:18.480
also engages in terrorism directly itself. They are the biggest state sponsor of terrorism
0.53
00:15:23.080
in the world. Again, they back the Houthis. They back Hamas. They back Hezbollah. They back
0.94
00:15:27.660
many other terror regimes around the world. I am fine with them being struck at. We're not
00:15:34.920
allowed to strike bad people when they're doing bad things and they're threatening the lives of
00:15:39.480
other people. They're threatening peace. You're allowed to attack people if they would then start
00:15:45.160
up a wider war. And again, the mullahs in Iran do not care about their own lives. They will fire off
00:15:52.240
a nuke for the purpose of killing as many Jews, Christians, or Westerners as possible. They don't
0.99
00:16:00.340
care if they die. They just want to go out with as many casualties on the other side as possible.
00:16:06.260
This is not like Kim Jong-un in North Korea whose goal in life is to die happily in his sleep
00:16:11.500
and will never set off a nuke. He just has it so that nobody will get rid of him. In Iran, the mullahs
0.97
00:16:17.720
are perfectly fine going out in flames. That's why they cannot have a nuclear weapon. North
0.66
00:16:22.060
Korea shouldn't have one either, but they already do. And it's less of a crisis because of the
0.97
00:16:26.040
motivations of North Korea. Here's Cristio Avalis, who is an NDP show on X. And also the NDP retweeted
00:16:35.900
his post here, which is absolutely insane. Cristino says the NDP statements on Trump's war of
00:16:41.620
aggression against Iran, much better than the one from Trump's stooge Carney. And by the way, Carney was
00:16:47.680
also snidely taking jabs at the United States as well. We'll be getting back to that. But that
00:16:53.020
wasn't even good enough for the United States. And I love that he actually says this is a war of
00:16:57.380
aggression against Iran. There's no war. It was strikes. But here is the statement from the NDP
00:17:05.700
party that is rightfully only at seven seats right now. I wish it was zero. NDP statement on U.S.
00:17:12.280
attack on Iran. NDP critic for foreign affairs and defense, Heather McPherson, who is an absolute
00:17:18.280
nutcase. She's never found a terrorist regime she will not apologize for. Heather McPherson issued the
00:17:24.780
following statement, quote, on June 17th, new Democrats released a statement calling on Mark
00:17:30.660
Carney to push for a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. We expressed our urgent concern that Trump would
00:17:36.040
soon join this war and escalate a terrifying situation further. By the way, guys, easiest way of
00:17:42.060
telling if someone's a complete dullard on foreign policy. They talk about escalation and de-escalation
00:17:47.280
because apparently that is the only thing that you need to understand about any conflict. Who's
00:17:52.360
escalating and who's de-escalating? I don't care who's escalating and de-escalating. I care who's
00:17:57.420
in the right and who's in the wrong. But she goes on to say, last night, Trump indeed attacked Iran,
00:18:04.820
a use of force that is illegal under both U.S. and international law. No, it is not illegal under U.S.
00:18:10.040
law for the president to use the military to strike when an opportunity is present to prevent
00:18:16.480
another conflict from occurring or to go after enemies of the United States. You can do that.
00:18:20.720
If it's a full-on total war, he has to get congressional approval or stuff like this.
00:18:25.320
He obviously does not, or else you would never be able to take opportunities like this because you
00:18:29.860
would be too busy debating in Congress and your enemies would know that you're coming because you're
00:18:34.080
debating it on the House floor. And then she goes on to say, new Democrats condemned this action by
00:18:39.780
Trump and call for immediate de-escalation and a return of all parties to diplomatic talks. Oh,
00:18:44.680
yes, the very sage and wise opinion that we should talk about things all the time and let the bad
00:18:50.460
guys keep doing whatever they're going to do behind the scenes. There is no military solution to this
00:18:54.940
crisis. There was, and Trump just did it. Once again, we reiterate that millions of people,
00:19:00.280
including Canadians, trapped in the region will pay the price for the actions of these
00:19:04.540
warmongers. And the warmongers, because Heather McPherson is a nutcase and also seems to have,
0.99
00:19:10.820
take any opportunity to attack Israel as she can, is calling the warmongers in this case are Israel
00:19:16.320
and the United States. Not Iran, who again, funds terrorism and has killed hundreds of thousands,
0.85
00:19:22.980
two millions of people around the region over the decades that the Islamic regime has been in power
00:19:27.660
in Iran. No, no, no. The warmongers are the people who killed 300 people intimately attached to the
00:19:33.020
nuclear program in Iran and the military that, again, trains terrorists all over the Middle East
0.62
00:19:38.900
to kill people, try and topple other governments and do stuff like that.
00:19:45.240
Okay, so that was them. And now let's get to Mr. Mark Carney, and then we will cycle back to some of
00:19:51.500
the other activists. This is a long video, but purposely so. And he says, return immediately to
00:19:57.580
the negotiating table, Mark Carney on Iranian strike. Let's get to Mark Carney's specific
00:20:03.040
statement on this, because this thing was stupid. Iran's nuclear program is a grave threat to
0.92
00:20:09.660
international security in Canada, has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed
00:20:14.840
to develop a nuclear weapon. While U.S. military actions taken last night was designed to alleviate
00:20:19.960
that threat. The situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile. Stability in the region
00:20:24.980
is a priority. So even that sentence, he's already saying, well, the U.S. military action taken last
00:20:29.040
night was designed to alleviate that threat. He then side swipes them and says, there's still tensions
00:20:34.040
going on. Hey, the U.S. didn't solve, you know, didn't create world peace and cure cancer. Ergo, you know,
00:20:41.340
the strikes aren't 100% effective, even though that's not the point. Is there tension? Okay, sure,
00:20:49.060
but Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon, so that's good. And now he finishes the statement off,
00:20:54.080
saying, Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach
00:20:57.920
a diplomatic solution to end this crisis. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution
00:21:04.040
of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East,
00:21:10.040
including a ceasefire in Gaza. Why is he bringing up Gaza? What does this have to do with Gaza at all?
00:21:17.320
It doesn't have to do anything. He just knows there are nutcase progressives in his party who
00:21:23.520
hate Israel to the point that they will blame Israel for Iran, a terror state, developing a nuclear weapon
00:21:31.040
over the last 20 years. It's mostly been Israel having to stop them here and there, like, you know,
0.61
00:21:35.640
hold back their nuclear program from getting off the ground or moving fast. It's been, Iran's been
0.98
00:21:41.240
doing this no matter what's been going on in Gaza. And Gaza is being run by terrorists who fire
00:21:46.820
constant rockets into Israel. Of course, Israel, after October 7th, went in to decapitate the Hamas
00:21:53.860
leadership and are trying to basically control the situation. Now, he only brought that up, again,
00:21:58.760
because there are nutcases, Muslim Brotherhood operatives and whatnot who exist in the Liberal
00:22:04.680
Party who require the Liberals to sound off about how, you know, all this is kind of Israel's fault if
0.58
00:22:10.420
you think about it. Them responding to thousands of their people being killed, kidnapped, or wounded
00:22:16.640
is actually their fault. They should have just brushed it aside and let Yahya Sinwar keep on living.
0.99
00:22:22.680
Yeah, these people suck. Let's move on to some other things that have been said by Marcus J. Carney.
00:22:33.480
This is, I want to get to this one. So this is what Carney said at the EU yesterday, which is a very
00:22:43.300
insulting statement that seems to act like the U.S. is somehow, not maybe in the wrong in this situation,
00:22:50.200
but the U.S., we need to move past the United States as a leader in the world.
00:22:55.960
So we're meeting now in that context in, as you just said, in hard times. We might say even a
00:23:02.920
hinge moment of history, a world that's more dangerous and divided, a time where the rules-based
0.98
00:23:10.040
international, the global order, rules-based global order is under threat in a time when technological
00:23:15.960
change is accelerating. And we really have two choices as a jurisdiction as a country in this
00:23:22.920
circumstance. We can nostalgically look back and long for the old order to somehow return,
00:23:29.960
or we can build a new one with purpose and partnership.
00:23:33.720
Sorry to rain on Mark Carney's parade here, but the old order just blew the new order out of the
00:23:41.480
water. Donald Trump and Israel taking out Iran's nuclear program was fantastic. That was the old
0.99
00:23:49.800
American order asserting itself and proving it's still the biggest bully on the block, which is a
0.91
00:23:54.440
good thing. I don't want to live in a world where Russia, Iran, China, dictators around the world feel
00:24:02.920
like they can do absolutely anything they want. That doesn't mean that we should have the US going
00:24:06.920
around toppling anyone who is a nasty person. You'd have to topple probably like a hundred plus
00:24:13.400
countries. It's that what we want to do is keep it a dull roar and make sure that somebody like
00:24:18.600
President Donald Trump has the ability to basically say, walk into the kitchen when the kids are acting
00:24:25.240
up, all the rogue regimes are acting up to say, hey, what's going on here? And everyone shuts up a
00:24:30.520
little bit because, you know, dad might actually, you know, dad might punish you if he's to keep
00:24:36.600
messing around and making a mess. If you keep hitting your brother, he's going to come and smack you.
00:24:41.560
I like that because it's a good thing for the world. It's a good thing for general peace.
00:24:47.480
And as the most European of the non-European countries, Canada looks first to the European Union
00:24:54.280
to build a better world. And that was the other shoe that dropped in that speech. Canada looks to
00:25:02.520
the European Union to build a better world. The European Union is worthless. So many EU countries
00:25:08.200
are economic basket cases. They let millions of migrants into the country. They don't control
1.00
00:25:13.240
street crime. They are letting crimes be committed by migrants because they are scared of being accused
1.00
00:25:18.120
of being racist, like when it comes to the Pakistani grooming gangs in the United Kingdom. We shouldn't
00:25:24.600
look to these people. I know the UK isn't part of the EU anymore. Obama's talking about Europe in general.
00:25:29.560
If we're maybe talking about Italy or Poland, I wouldn't mind Canada emulating them a little bit
1.00
00:25:34.120
more when it comes to some policies. But Canada is rightfully more like the United States than we are
00:25:41.000
like Europe. If we were more like Europe, we would be even in a bigger hole than we already are.
0.96
00:25:46.200
Everything going wrong with Canada right now is because of our European-like positions on policy.
00:25:53.000
And Canada has, again, the anti-American tendency that when we do something European because we don't
00:25:59.720
want to be like the Americans, we turn it up to 11, like with our MAID program, like with Safe Supply,
0.55
00:26:04.760
like with the homeless encampment crisis. We tend to go to the nth degree. It's why Tristan Hopper ended
00:26:10.840
up writing that book, Don't Be Like Canada, how Canada did everything wrong all at once.
00:26:15.480
Really good book. You guys should go check that out. I'll maybe try and bring them on to do a book
00:26:19.400
review on it. But no, I don't want to be like Europe. And this is kind of a big way of Kearney
00:26:25.160
messing up the negotiations with America over trade to basically say, we don't really like you guys.
00:26:32.920
We don't like how you're handling the Iran situation. We actually like Europe better.
0.94
00:26:36.440
You know, those useless people who aren't doing anything about the Middle East, who are borderline,
1.00
00:26:41.160
not even keeping commitments to NATO spending, who've been letting the US quarterback the Ukraine
00:26:47.320
situation. Yeah, let's be more like those useless idiots. But here is another guy commenting on
00:26:54.600
Mark Kearney yesterday, Mike Gerald Gibbs, he, him, who says, this is my favorite picture of the G7.
00:27:01.080
Mark Kearney is the most skillful diplomat Canada has ever produced since Lester Pearson.
00:27:05.640
The Kearney charm is something to behold. He connects with people immediately. Kearney had
00:27:09.880
the South African president beaming with joy and laughter. If there was a world leader who's sort
00:27:17.640
of in the Western orbit, who I would not want our leader to get along with, it's that scumbag,
00:27:24.520
that guy who doesn't care that mobs of people are going around just murdering white farmers in
00:27:30.600
Africa. I think that he should be held, he should be basically called on the carpet and ripped like
1.00
00:27:36.600
Trump ripped him when he visited the Oval Office and he confronted him over his party enabling these
00:27:42.040
crimes occurring. And he basically had this pathetic defense. I forgot what the man's name is. He had this
00:27:48.040
pathetic defense that, well, there's a crime is a big problem in general. There's crime everywhere.
00:27:53.560
Okay. But there is a disproportionate amount of farmers who are white being murdered in Africa.
00:27:59.400
And we're not talking about like a little disproportionate. We're talking about like
00:28:02.680
roving bands of people trying to find opportunities to kill white farmers. And they also kill black
0.99
00:28:07.080
farmers too, often assuming it's a white farm showing up. It's not because they're scumbags. They
00:28:11.240
shoot that guy in the head anyways, and just take all this stuff and ransack it. And he's or
00:28:16.280
and he signed a law into, he signed a piece of legislation into law, basically allowing the
00:28:22.680
government to take your property and redistribute it to the people because, you know, the state,
00:28:28.840
the needs of the state to become before the individual. The man is a socialist nut bag. He is,
00:28:35.720
don't, I don't want Mark Carney to get along with that guy, but he is getting along with him because
00:28:40.760
he has no standards. He's just some, you know, anti Western leader that we're going to suck up to.
00:28:47.240
Let's, oh my goodness. Okay. I just want to comment on this video by Laura Babcock because I like to
00:28:54.120
comment on her whenever I got the opportunity. Maybe we'll end off with this. You know,
00:28:58.680
there was other statements by other liberal MPs and ministers saying, oh, we need de-escalation
00:29:03.480
in the United States. It's pathetic. It's stupid. But that's pretty much it. We're not a great
00:29:09.480
position with the U S because we are criticizing them doing the obvious right thing. But here is
00:29:15.800
Laura Babcock again, screaming about the U S I'm not sure if this exactly has to do with Iran, but I,
00:29:20.600
I always find her videos funny. We are globally impacted by what's happening with the move to
00:29:25.320
fascism in the United States. We cannot separate our media from what we're seeing down there. And
00:29:30.680
too much of our corporate media is owned by the U S we have to have. Well, I don't know why she's
1.00
00:29:35.560
jump cutting so much, but like, oh, I love this constant fear mongering about the fascism in the
00:29:42.040
United States. What fascism in the United States? It's a, the Republicans are a small government party
00:29:48.360
mostly. Why? How, how are, yes, the fascists are free market that, that Laura Babcock's onto something.
0.90
00:29:56.520
A rapid response to it immediately of pro democratic voices leveraging and amplifying one another on social
00:30:04.680
media. We do outnumber them. So let's use our numbers. Always answer fire with fire, you know,
00:30:11.000
like just be there. These people are delusional. They don't live on planet earth with the rest of us.
00:30:18.600
That's why Laura Babcock was also going around agreeing with people that, oh, it's so bad that the
00:30:24.360
U S went after Iran for developing nuclear weapons. No, it's actually very good that they did that. And you
1.00
00:30:30.360
would have to be a complete moron to think otherwise. Um, like there, and now like the left,
00:30:36.760
I like seeing the left finally realize a bunch of people on their side might not like Jewish people
00:30:42.600
very much because all of them are basically, there's this one guy, Yves angles or something
00:30:47.800
like that. He's some Montreal based anti-Israel activist going around saying, well, why aren't the
00:30:53.000
left criticizing Jewish people enough? Because they're the ones enabling this. And a bunch of people on the
1.00
00:30:57.800
left suddenly realized maybe we've been enabling this kind of socialist style of anti-Semitism
00:31:04.680
way too much. But even there, they're frozen and unable to do anything about it because they live
00:31:09.160
in a morally relative world that because Iran is poor and because Gaza is poor and because Syria is
0.55
00:31:14.760
poor and because Yemen is poor, the Hezbollah side of it, that means Israel's bad because they're rich,
0.99
00:31:20.600
even though they didn't take anything from these people. They live on a small spit of land and have
00:31:26.200
turned it into an actual functional Western democracy that has a good economy and good,
00:31:32.120
you know, social structure. Because the other people weren't able to do that, apparently Israel's
0.87
00:31:36.680
very bad. And this is the same narrative that needs to be pushed back on in Canada,
00:31:41.000
that because some people in Canada are poor and some people have money, that means someone
00:31:44.600
ripped off the other person. Now, there is bad things that happen in Canada's economy,
00:31:48.760
mostly through government subsidization, propping up bad industries, overtaxing people,
00:31:53.320
overregulating others, you know, signing away people's land over to corrupt ban councils.
00:31:58.680
Bad stuff happens. But the funny thing is all the things that actually make the economy unfair
00:32:03.800
are the things that the socialist left advocates for in order to correct perceived issues around
00:32:10.600
income inequality. Like, maybe this is the last thing I'm going to end on. This was one of the dumbest
00:32:15.560
things I've seen. I don't need to make a video on this, it's just not worth it. But that guy I made a
00:32:21.080
response video to the other day, Steve Boots, had made this insane video
00:32:29.320
in the context of how bad Canada's economy is and how normal people can't get ahead.
00:32:39.880
Canada's real problem, wealth inequality. Yeah, Canada's real problem is wealth inequality.
00:32:51.000
Not the fact that per capita incomes keep going down because of mass immigration,
00:32:55.560
high taxes and regulations holding down business growth. It's income inequality. We just need to tax
00:33:01.640
and regulate harder. And then we will eventually arrive in some sort of like grand socialist like
00:33:09.720
economy where everyone is, you know, at least somewhat equal. No, I don't want equality. I want
00:33:16.040
people getting what they deserve. Anyways, so that's it for me today, guys. Make sure to like this video,
00:33:23.960
subscribe to the channel, leave a comment, do all that great stuff. Actually, I probably do have another
00:33:28.360
video coming out today, but it's a force of habit. I say that's it for me today. I'll watch another
00:33:33.000
channel where someone always says that because he only releases one video every other day or so.
00:33:37.400
And so I say it, even though I often will put out two videos in a day, but get off my back, man.
