The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Carney's Nervous - Failures and the Budget put Liberals on the rocks!

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here.

00:00:02.960 There is nothing more entertaining in politics than watching a politician you don't like

00:00:08.380 put themselves into a position that is very uncomfortable.

00:00:12.680 And that is exactly what is happening right now with Prime Minister Mark Carney and his

00:00:18.240 liberal government.

00:00:19.580 They believed all of their own hype.

00:00:22.280 They were the experts coming in to write Canada's ship.

00:00:26.480 We cannot work with the Americans anymore and we're going to set our own course. 1.00

00:00:31.760 And then they had no actual plan.

00:00:33.820 They don't have a budget ready yet.

00:00:35.980 They will be presenting one in two weeks, which Carney seems extremely uncomfortable

00:00:40.400 about.

00:00:41.360 And they are falling in the polls because they don't have a plan.

00:00:45.280 They're not, they don't know how to negotiate with people like Donald Trump.

00:00:48.360 They really don't know how to build an economy.

00:00:50.480 Of course, Mark Carney doesn't know how to build an economy.

00:00:53.200 His entire history with Brookfield Asset Management was mostly investing in areas of green energy

00:00:59.540 and things like EV battery plants where it's all government subsidized.

00:01:04.240 It's the entire economy for green energy is pretty much government grants all the way

00:01:08.680 down.

00:01:09.340 Whenever people tell you, oh, wow, the green energy industry is really taking off, take the

00:01:15.580 chart of how much green energy investment has gone up over time and then take another chart

00:01:20.380 of green energy subsidies, they are the same chart.

00:01:24.000 Absolutely ridiculous.

00:01:25.480 But today I need to show you guys some clips of Mark Carney sort of trying to preemptively

00:01:30.620 roll out his budget.

00:01:31.860 He is really trying to front run this thing because he's nervous.

00:01:35.880 Yes, are we not going to have an election probably in November?

00:01:38.840 Very unlikely that we're going to have a snap election come down right now.

00:01:42.600 The NDP probably want to buy time in order to have their leadership race actually go all

00:01:47.480 the way through and have a new leader to run with.

00:01:50.240 But right now, the liberals at least know if they mess up on this budget, the NDP or the

00:01:55.380 bloc are going to say, OK, definitely next time we're going to kick them out. 1.00

00:01:58.860 And that means an election could happen easily this spring.

00:02:02.320 A lot of people have a lot to gain by calling a new election except for the liberals.

00:02:07.780 Typically, they would have a lot to gain because they could get a majority.

00:02:10.580 But based on their polling position, they do not have a lot to gain based on the political

00:02:14.620 reality they currently live in.

00:02:16.800 But here we have Prime Minister Mark Carney at a press event about his budget, once again

00:02:23.180 reiterating that our relationship with the Americans is over.

00:02:26.480 And do you know why he's doing this?

00:02:27.960 It's not because he actually believes it.

00:02:29.940 He just went to grovel to Donald Trump the other day in the Oval Office again.

00:02:34.140 He's saying this because his own base thinks he's a hypocrite.

00:02:37.700 You know, because he's a hypocrite.

00:02:40.080 Check this out.

00:02:40.680 He keeps also having to change the way he frames this issue.

00:03:04.860 Before it was just, it's over.

00:03:06.520 Our trade, our security relationship is done.

00:03:09.820 Now he's saying, well, the time in which we grow ever closer to them is over.

00:03:15.860 Like, well, what?

00:03:18.420 Well, that ended like in the 80s because naturally other economies started, you know, really firing

00:03:24.200 up in the latter half of the 20th century.

00:03:26.840 And so we started trading with them more, not because we like we're dissing the Americans.

00:03:30.060 It's just because everyone was bombed out after World War II.

00:03:33.720 So you weren't really going to sign a bunch of trade deals with China, Japan, Vietnam,

00:03:38.560 Germany, England, France at the time, Canada, and the United States and South America were

00:03:44.980 kind of the last ones left standing.

00:03:46.720 And so you ended up trading a lot.

00:03:48.900 Nobody, it wasn't like things are now over because we're not trading as much with the

00:03:52.900 Americans.

00:03:53.660 It's been steadily decreasing as other economies have things that we want.

00:03:57.540 But again, he's trying to frame this in some Canadian nationalistic angle.

00:04:02.420 He's effectively saying nothing here.

00:04:04.360 He's pretending like he's changing a status quo, even though he's basically saying the

00:04:09.520 status quo is over.

00:04:11.600 Now we are on to the new status quo that we've been on to for like 30 plus years.

00:04:15.560 And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country, former strengths more particularly

00:04:22.320 as our economy, strengths based on close ties to America have become our vulnerabilities.

00:04:29.420 And as a result of that, the jobs of workers in our industries most affected by the U.S.

00:04:34.640 tariffs in autos and steel and lumber are under threat.

00:04:39.460 And our businesses are holding back investments restrained by the pall of uncertainty that's

00:04:44.980 hanging over all of us.

00:04:46.300 They're not holding our businesses, not holding back investment.

00:04:50.320 In fact, billions of dollars have gone to the United States.

00:04:55.020 I think it was like $50 billion of investment has moved from Canada to the United States since

00:05:00.680 Prime Minister Mark Carney got into office because they don't actually trust the Canadian government

00:05:07.000 to make an economy worth investing in.

00:05:09.460 That's the thing.

00:05:10.560 Our close ties with the U.S. were never a threat.

00:05:13.600 Our own bad economics have been a threat because if we had a great economy to set up shop in

00:05:18.840 to manufacture goods for resource extraction or setting up a tech company or something

00:05:23.580 like that, it doesn't matter if the U.S. just banned trade from Canada.

00:05:26.900 Everyone would be jumping up and down to trade with Canada.

00:05:29.300 They really aren't because it's just not a great country to trade with.

00:05:34.100 Our economy is effectively depressed.

00:05:36.860 It's not a great place to start a new business.

00:05:38.860 You have to have a crazy amount of extra capital to set up the same size business in Canada that

00:05:43.820 you could set up in the United States.

00:05:45.480 It's just not a friendly investment environment right now.

00:05:48.760 But yeah, but Mark Carney, again, is attempting to try and shift blame towards the United States.

00:05:54.620 And then we will talk a little bit later as well about the media, again, continuing to try and shift blame or shift focus towards Pierre Polio because things are not going very well for Mark Carney.

00:06:06.220 You can even look at him right here.

00:06:07.440 He looks rather demented while he's giving this presser.

00:06:11.000 And he's obviously not very happy right now.

00:06:14.460 He acts like that's somehow, like, surprising.

00:06:38.800 Like, wow, we have the best trade deal with the United States.

00:06:41.760 Who could have guessed we'd have the best trade deal with the United States of all the countries on the planet when we trade 80% with them?

00:06:49.400 The United States, I think 70% of their trade is with Canada, 60 or 70%.

00:06:53.060 Obviously, they're going to have the best trade deal with us.

00:06:55.860 This isn't surprising.

00:06:57.760 The thing is, we have the most leverage, and we also don't use any of our leverage.

00:07:02.260 And it doesn't matter how much liberals can justify Mark Carney not actually making a real good deal with the United States.

00:07:12.420 As much as they'd like to kind of pretend that this isn't an issue, people are going to feel the effects of not having actually negotiated properly.

00:07:20.820 We didn't threaten anything.

00:07:22.200 We didn't put anything on the table.

00:07:23.960 So, of course, we didn't get anything.

00:07:25.240 Have you ever sat down for a mediation or a business negotiation, and you just sat down and said, we should do it, and that was it?

00:07:33.300 Or you usually have to offer things on both sides.

00:07:37.140 Here is another country.

00:07:38.960 Oh, wait.

00:07:39.260 Ah.

00:07:42.580 Okay, yeah, we have to get to this one.

00:07:44.080 Mark Nixon posted this clip saying that Mark Carney is a complete broken record, keeps talking about the crisis that we're in and how he's going to solve it.

00:07:51.540 And yet we're six months into him having apparently been working on it, and still we got nothing.

00:07:56.640 The world is more dangerous and divided.

00:08:01.100 The U.S., as we all know, has fundamentally changed its approach to trade.

00:08:06.420 By the way, he keeps saying that U.S. is starting a new era of protectionism.

00:08:21.560 I suppose the U.S. has the power of kind of changing world trade dynamics more, but Canada has been extremely protectionist for a very long time.

00:08:29.740 We're even protectionist against outside media, by the way.

00:08:33.340 You have to play enough CanCon in order to be on the air.

00:08:37.820 We're in a country where we've had massive tariffs on dairy and poultry for a very long time.

00:08:43.900 And we have other duties on products that enter our country, and people can agree or disagree with that.

00:08:49.920 But the idea that we are going to clutch our pearls and pretend that they were subjecting us to something, even though we've been doing it to them for a very long time, was always silly.

00:08:57.140 And then trying to measure and say, well, ours weren't as bad.

00:09:00.060 Well, we did it first, and we were doing it for decades.

00:09:02.280 So what's your point?

00:09:03.620 Technically, of course, theirs are going to be higher because they've been putting up with not being able to access our market for dairy and poultry for decades and decades and decades.

00:09:11.780 And people will say, well, the U.S. doesn't take Canadian dairy or poultry because they're subsidized.

00:09:18.380 We're subsidized, and we have a quota system.

00:09:20.440 The reason why we don't end up sending any into the United States is because the quota system cuts people off on how much they're able to produce.

00:09:27.120 So we actually protect our dairy industry, but at the same time, we cripple it at the same time.

00:09:31.640 It's ridiculous.

00:09:32.460 Not part of a smooth transition.

00:09:35.000 They're a rupture.

00:09:36.780 And they mean that our economic strategy needs to change dramatically.

00:09:41.780 And they mean as well, even though we both live through time or living, you living, I live through times of immense change, your future will not be the same as my past.

00:09:52.800 When I was your age, the Berlin Wall fell, leading to a long period of liberalization of the movement of goods, capital, and people, leading to a peace dividend.

00:10:14.040 You might be wondering, why are we watching all this?

00:10:19.580 Well, it's because Mark Carney decided to say it all.

00:10:23.560 The whole thing was kind of trying to reiterate a lot of the things he said during the last campaign and never really getting onto the budget.

00:10:30.300 Yes, the budget's going to protect our industry.

00:10:32.280 We're going to spend less and invest more.

00:10:34.360 We want to put more money into capital projects and not into ministerial budgets and whatnot.

00:10:40.160 Not operating budgets, but more infrastructure.

00:10:43.200 It's like, okay, well, that's all great.

00:10:44.480 We're also six months in and we haven't done any of this yet.

00:10:47.320 And it's literally going to be years before we, even if it ends up being positive, it's going to be years before we end up seeing all that.

00:10:55.240 Because the man at the end of the day is not very much of a capitalist.

00:10:58.140 If he actually cared about our economy, he'd cut taxes, cut regulations, and get it out of the way.

00:11:02.520 But Mark Carney comes from a world of grants and subsidies and tax breaks.

00:11:08.600 And that is his approach to prosperity.

00:11:11.000 It's picking winners and losers, companies he likes, industries he likes, and giving them grants and subsidies in order to grow more.

00:11:17.220 In which it just creates depressed growth because that's not, you know, just jamming money into unproductive parts of the economy does not actually create real prosperity.

00:11:26.360 But now let's jump over to a clip of Pierre Polyev, who yesterday had a press conference where he's been having to fight with the media as well as go after the liberals at the same time.

00:11:35.540 Because, again, the media attempts to try and move the attention away from Carney whenever he's doing a bad job.

00:11:43.460 And that's why they're trying to grill Polyev over the RCMP comments he made, which were apt. 0.91

00:11:48.540 RCMP leadership has let conservative liberals get away with corruption for years now.

00:11:53.660 And we're supposed to be all offended that he went after the RCMP leadership when rank-and-file RCMP don't like the RCMP leadership.

00:11:59.820 And I don't think the general public likes them either.

00:12:01.780 They know how duplicitous many of these people are, how useless many of these people are, like Brenda Luckey when she was RCMP commissioner.

00:12:09.200 But instead of acknowledging all of those sacrifices and promising to reverse them, Mr. Carney doubles down on all the policies that caused them.

00:12:17.260 The inflationary deficits that were left behind by the previous liberal government, he's doubled them.

00:12:22.820 He's increased spending on bureaucracy and consultants, all of which is driving inflation up even higher than it was before he took office.

00:12:30.140 In fact, food price inflation is almost double the Bank of Canada's target, which means our young people are now forced to downgrade their diets and line up at food banks.

00:12:39.100 We see paychecks are now under attack.

00:12:41.800 While the first 10 years of liberal government deprived our youth of home ownership, now it's depriving them of jobs.

00:12:49.060 Youth employment numbers are now the worst in a generation, as the government blocks jobs with high taxes and anti-development laws and allows multinational corporations to give those jobs away to the temporary foreign worker program, meaning countless young people are not able to even find a paycheck, let alone a place to live.

00:13:08.760 My message to Canadian youth is this, you have sacrificed enough under this liberal government, you don't have to live like this.

00:13:17.800 We can turn the hurt of the last decade into the hope of the future, and we have a plan to do it.

00:13:23.800 That plan will unlock free enterprise.

00:13:25.760 It goes into a bit more of a pitch, but I think that generally speaking, the positioning on Carney has been quite good because, frankly, it's really easy to see what the liberals are doing right now.

00:13:36.140 And I actually want to highlight the comment, because this was clipped by Jasmine Lane, and actually I did appreciate her comment.

00:13:43.260 I don't think we should, I wouldn't want to be as intense about it as she was, just because I think there's many people acting in good faith who she's referring to here.

00:13:51.720 But I, as somebody who's going to attend the Federal Conservative Convention, I might have to do it as an observer.

00:13:58.060 I don't think I can actually get in as a delegate, but whatever.

00:14:00.280 I tend to walk around and talk to people anyways, so much that I can't really be there for votes and whatnot, for constitution and policy stuff.

00:14:07.300 But there, I think right now, and I'm saying this because I'm going to convention, I don't really see a reason to ditch Polyev as the Federal Conservative leader.

00:14:17.640 Unlike John Rustad in BC, who lost and went very left on a lot of policy issues, he went dictatorial on how he runs the party.

00:14:25.000 See, Polyev, I would say he's actually been moving right in the right areas.

00:14:29.160 He's actually been sounding like he wants to actually democratize the party better, because there was way too many nominations before the last federal election,

00:14:37.760 where it was party elites coming down from on high and saying, I want that person to win and not that person, and we're going to kick you out, and we're going to kick that guy out.

00:14:44.500 Because I was one of the people kicked out of a nomination.

00:14:46.360 But at the very least, his people seem to be doing the right thing, but Jasmine Lane addresses those who seem to, basically, no matter what is happening, are finding angles to naysay Polyev.

00:14:57.260 And by the way, he should get criticism when there is things to criticize.

00:15:01.620 But at the same time, you should pair criticism up with saying, you know, but he's right there.

00:15:07.020 And there are some people where it seems like the, well, he's right there, never actually comes.

00:15:12.240 And again, I think sometimes it's people acting in good faith, but you do need to make sure, am I accidentally, unintentionally becoming contrarian?

00:15:21.780 But he's, she says here,

00:15:23.320 And I take Jasmine's post, and to be fair, I believe she's only talking about people who vote liberal.

00:15:52.620 I do apply this a little bit to those who are fragging Polyev from the right, of saying that, oh, he didn't speak out on the ostriches enough.

00:16:01.680 He didn't do, you know, he didn't say enough about this, or he went to this cultural event.

00:16:06.060 Look at him wearing some sort of head covering at a Sikh event. 0.98

00:16:08.580 Like, guys, what do you, enter politics and see what it's like.

00:16:13.760 And by the way, I work for 1BC in the legislature.

00:16:16.800 We go pretty hardcore.

00:16:18.440 And we're trying to make as much change as possible.

00:16:20.560 I, if 1BC was in the same political environment as the federal conservatives, we really would be stuck with not much as, like, not very much to criticize from their right, because they're, frankly, 10,000 times better than the BC conservatives, because they actually say conservative things.

00:16:36.220 And so, I always get a little annoyed when people start, oh, you know, I'm going to show you that Polyev's not a true one. 0.53

00:16:44.140 Okay, okay, you can criticize, but if you can't pair it up with, well, he's doing this right.

00:16:48.420 And the same thing applies to the left, which is who Jasmine Lane was referring to there.

00:16:53.060 If you're on the left, and you, as your government is failing, as its approval ratings start to fall again, and you don't say, well, yeah, Carney should be doing this.

00:17:04.560 And yeah, no, baby Polyev's right about this.

00:17:06.440 Maybe you don't like his policy, but he's kind of right about this.

00:17:09.620 Get out of politics.

00:17:10.720 If all you're trying to do is search through Polyev's social media and try and clip him out of context on a podcast to say, oh, he hates cops, you know what you're doing.

00:17:20.060 And I think Jasmine's right.

00:17:21.340 You must just hate the average Canadian if you genuinely don't actually care about the fact pattern, and all you're here to do is naysay.

00:17:27.660 But now we can jump on to some other stuff, like this World of Statistics chart on X that really shows why I think the Liberals are going to start really falling down the popularity ratings soon.

00:17:42.140 They already are, but I'm meaning like a big jump down.

00:17:45.480 World of Statistics says household debt as share of GDP.

00:17:49.520 Canada is currently at the top of the list of these Western countries, Western and developing countries, 103%.

00:17:57.660 Our household debt in this country is 103% of our GDP.

00:18:04.660 Next down is a 23% drop to the UK at 80%, the US at 73%, France 63%, China 62%, Germany 52%, and so on and so forth.

00:18:15.460 The difference between Canada and the UK and the US even, even though we're even higher than them, is that even if the US had even as much as Canada,

00:18:24.500 they have an economy that could potentially pay for it all, to pay it all back.

00:18:29.320 Canada's economy is too sluggish to handle the current amount of household debt we have,

00:18:33.780 and with inflation increasing and prices increasing again, we are going to have a bigger increase in debt,

00:18:38.920 and we're going to become less and less and less able to actually pay any of it back.

00:18:44.820 But, you know, I'm not trying to be too doom and gloom here, but now we have all these people trying to, again,

00:18:56.480 cook up stories about how Polyev's leadership of the Conservative Party is at risk,

00:19:00.940 and this is also why I urge people, if you're on the right and you have a problem with something Polyev does,

00:19:05.660 make sure to be a proper referee.

00:19:08.280 Don't just call it things you don't like.

00:19:09.760 I call it things I don't like, but I also say he's right there.

00:19:13.920 He's improved there, because that's how you're actually, to be fair.

00:19:18.120 This guy, Coffee Time News, says,

00:19:19.540 Breaking.

00:19:20.260 Conservative MPs doubt pure Polyev's leadership.

00:19:22.880 Caucus members believe that Polyev hasn't changed enough since the last election.

00:19:26.720 Some of them are now calling wondering whether they will support him in the confidence vote in January.

00:19:31.700 This is a stupid media rumor going around,

00:19:35.280 and I had, what was his name, I forget who it was, but there was a former MP, he only lost in his last election,

00:19:44.040 he's probably going to run again, Rick Perkins.

00:19:46.360 He even said it's complete nonsense, and he's from a part of the country in the Maritimes,

00:19:51.180 where if there was going to be rumblings from MPs, it's going to be probably from some MPs from Quebec,

00:19:56.860 or maybe a Maritime MP, or somebody from, you know, the GTA area, and it's fake.

00:20:02.480 It's that Carney's doing a bad job right now, and now the conservative or the liberal media needs to try and pretend

00:20:09.200 that there's some crisis going on in Polyev's camp.

00:20:12.520 Polyev, again, there's criticisms of him that you can come up with,

00:20:17.240 but right now, he's genuinely on an upward swing.

00:20:21.620 He's doing a pretty decent job at the moment at improving things that were not being done very well

00:20:27.240 during the federal election, and trying to democratize the party again.

00:20:31.660 That's overall quite good.

00:20:32.880 And now we have this bombshell that just came out, where Michael Cooper, in a committee meeting,

00:20:37.400 had people, had testimony to the effect that Brookfield Asset Management

00:20:43.540 has been one of the biggest tax dodgers in Canada.

00:20:46.360 On page 12 of your report, there is reference to Brookfield's tax gap over the last five years

00:20:57.700 between 2017 and 2021.

00:21:01.120 Just so that I'm clear on what a tax gap means,

00:21:06.360 it is measuring the difference between taxes actually paid and taxes that would have been paid

00:21:13.360 if the statutory Canadian tax rate had been applied to profits reaped.

00:21:18.480 Do I have that right?

00:21:20.420 That is correct.

00:21:21.400 Okay.

00:21:22.360 And according to your analysis, or the analysis cited in your report,

00:21:29.260 Brookfield's tax gap in just five years between 2017 to 2021 was over $6.5 billion.

00:21:39.780 Is that right?

00:21:40.440 That's correct, and that was based on research done by the Canadians for tax fairness

00:21:46.100 and by some analysis from the Toronto Star as well.

00:21:50.160 So it would be fair to say that the extent of Brookfield's tax avoidance,

00:21:56.120 taxes that it should have otherwise paid in Canada in just five years,

00:22:01.820 was over $6.5 billion.

00:22:04.100 Yes, I mean, there are, the tax gap is looking at the statutory rate,

00:22:11.220 and there are some reasons why companies, legitimate reasons why companies pay below that,

00:22:16.320 but that's an indication of a major underpayment of taxes that,

00:22:22.420 in the spirit of the law, should have been paid in Canada to finance public services in Canada.

00:22:27.480 Yeah, I'd say $6.5 billion is a lot of money.

00:22:31.700 Would it be fair to say that Brookfield is Canada's largest tax dodger amongst corporations?

00:22:38.540 It has been labeled as such, and if it's not the largest, it's clearly in the very top tier.

00:22:47.440 The thing is here, I played that whole thing for the purpose of highlighting

00:22:52.460 that Carney does not have as much goodwill as people really think.

00:22:57.220 He had goodwill when he was running against the image of Donald Trump in the election,

00:23:04.200 and running on promises that he was probably obviously not going to be able to fulfill

00:23:08.660 if you are a keen political observer.

00:23:11.880 And six months after the election, he really can't run on those things again,

00:23:14.840 and his government has scandals, and they have multiple policy failures,

00:23:19.660 and it looks like they're going to have to get rid of...

00:23:21.300 They already got rid of Bill C, too, the thing that was going to crack down on how much money

00:23:25.560 that you could basically move around in cash and whatnot,

00:23:28.760 and it was going to have, you know, without just cause,

00:23:32.500 abilities to actually look through your mail and whatnot.

00:23:35.000 They already ran away on that. 0.91

00:23:35.960 It looks like they're going to run away on the gun buyback,

00:23:39.360 because it's going so badly in Cape Breton.

00:23:41.220 The mayor spoke out about how obviously there's basically no uptake

00:23:44.340 of people wanting to sell their guns to the government.

00:23:47.100 They do not have the bandwidth to run a new election.

00:23:51.520 If it happens in the spring, who's really going to say,

00:23:54.860 yeah, let's go out again for the liberals?

00:23:56.900 Let's, you know, let's gather up all the troops and run on the what did they do?

00:24:01.800 Like, what did they do?

00:24:02.660 What do you say to someone at the door?

00:24:04.200 Oh, we're going to go out there and tell the public that we're trying in some way.

00:24:08.700 You promise to fix the issues fast and, like, get a trade deal and, you know,

00:24:16.360 lead us through a crisis and we're six months in and you still haven't even tabled the budget?

00:24:21.100 Come on, guys.

00:24:22.780 No one's going to, no one believes they actually are going to fix things

00:24:25.880 when they haven't done anything in six months.

00:24:27.920 And in fact, everything's been getting worse.

00:24:29.880 The deficit's worse.

00:24:31.500 The accountability is worse.

00:24:32.980 Transparency is worse.

00:24:33.960 The censorship laws are worse that they're trying to pass.

00:24:37.160 It's an open gun range, you know, pun intended when it comes to the gun issue.

00:24:44.060 But this is just a turkey shoot for the conservatives on all the areas of policy

00:24:48.940 that Carney has failed on.

00:24:50.540 Bolliev on the debate stage would probably just go through a list.

00:24:53.580 You said you're going to do this.

00:24:54.440 You said you're going to do this.

00:24:55.240 You said you're going to do this.

00:24:56.120 You said you're going to do this.

00:24:57.180 No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:24:58.880 And we're back in an election because you couldn't hold it together

00:25:01.500 because you don't know what you're doing.

00:25:04.020 Easy election script to write up for the conservatives, and rightfully so here.

00:25:09.060 Anyways, so that should be it for this video, guys.

00:25:12.180 Naturally, I am going to come to you guys in the next couple of days

00:25:15.160 and tell you about stuff happening in British Columbia.

00:25:18.060 We've been on the move.

00:25:19.520 It's been really fun.

00:25:20.580 We presented a bill today to ban land acknowledgements in public institutions.

00:25:25.740 You know, for instance, if you're a teacher being paid on the taxpayer dime,

00:25:30.120 you don't get to do a two-minute land acknowledgment

00:25:32.580 and basically compel children to do it for two minutes every single day.

00:25:37.240 You are being paid by taxpayers to educate children,

00:25:39.800 and no, it's not a free speech issue to block you from jamming

00:25:43.600 just ancillary nonsense into the classroom

00:25:46.120 when you should be teaching, you know, reading, writing, and arithmetic.

00:25:50.160 Anyways, with that all being said,

00:25:52.600 make sure you guys like, share, and subscribe.

00:25:54.320 Do all that fantastic stuff, and I'll see you guys all later.

00:25:56.960 I'll see you guys all later.
