00:00:00.000The Mark Carney Liberals have just shot themselves in the foot with their new scheme to try and privatize for Canadian airports.
00:00:09.180When I say privatize, it's more akin to the state selling the airports to the deep state, and it's going to be a massive vector of corruption.
00:00:19.080Before I get into this clip from CTV News, where the Liberal House leader Steve McKinnon talks about the plan,
00:00:25.300I just quickly want to remind you guys, if you like the show, make sure to leave a like on the

00:00:43.060channel more sustainable for me. But we need to go through this minute-long clip from the CTV news
00:00:48.740interview. It's absolutely insane, the plan that the liberals end up pitching here, and I don't
00:00:54.360know why they think this is going to be sellable. It just sounds like carny corruption.
00:01:00.100They're taking that decision out of a not-for-profit operation and putting in the hands
00:01:05.320of a for-profit operation. Their goal is to make money. Canadians, I think, and some public opinion
00:01:13.140polling expresses this, are worried about money being made off of them.
00:01:18.360Now, before we get to Steve McKinnon, I do just want to comment on what Vashi Capello said there.
00:01:39.840The problem is the non-profits make money too.
00:01:42.000They don't pay out to shareholders like a for-profit company does,
00:01:46.680but airport improvement fees in many airports are like double what they should be
00:01:50.920because they like having the extra money to spend on pet projects yes they don't put out dividends0.97
00:01:55.800to investors but they do spend on a bunch of stupid you know woke initiatives that they have0.98
00:02:01.800they do build art installations they give out bonuses to people on the board it still happens0.98
00:02:07.720even if it's not for profit but let's see what steve mckinnon's proposal is for the privatization
00:02:14.040plan well we're taking it out of a largely unregulated model and moving it into what i
00:02:21.720just indicated would be a model that would be regulated by agreements that we have with again
00:02:29.160what we anticipate to be first of all canadians will own a part of these operating concessions
00:02:36.740through the canada strong fund so that will be a direct investment by the government of canada
00:02:41.800We anticipate a lot of interest, of course, from these very experienced Canadian pension funds who are used to and understand the various models around the world and are among the best in the world at operating airports, an opportunity for Indigenous communities as well to invest.
00:03:01.780Do you realize how insane what he just said was? So we are going to privatize these airports by selling the airports to ourselves. That's effectively what it is. By the way, this actually happened in Nazi Germany when they are not calling them, you know, national socialists.
00:03:21.600I'm just saying that it's a stupid national socialist style scheme in order to privatize something by selling it to yourself.0.89
00:03:29.580In Nazi Germany, they would actually sometimes sell state entities to a organization that was run by the Nazi party.1.00
00:03:36.720It was nuts. Again, it's just a kind of a funny quirk that they're engaged in national socialist style corporatism here.
00:03:44.200But you're going to sell the airports to the pension funds.
00:03:50.060Now, maybe he's saying it's private pension funds, although it would be very funny if the Canada Pension Fund actually ended up investing in these airports.
00:03:58.280But the first one, he said, was the Canada Strong Fund.
00:04:01.460So Canadian taxpayers are going to buy it from the nonprofits that are crown corporations operating for the state.
00:04:09.500So we're going to put the airports under the control of the Mark Carney loyalists over at the Canada Strong Fund, which, remember, is funded with $25 billion of debt because we never had a surplus to put into it.
00:04:26.740we put $25 billion into the fund through increasing the deficit massively. Remember that day when Mark
00:04:33.740Carney announced to act like he's some financial wizard, because he can put his credit, he can swipe
00:04:39.140his credit card on an investment fund for $25 billion. And then the last one there was, we're
00:04:45.440going to have a opportunity for indigenous groups to own parts of the airport. How? They don't have
00:04:53.420any money. Some of them actually do have decent money because they are invested in resource
00:04:58.120extraction, but not usually where airports are. What's going to happen is that bands are going to
00:05:04.280get taxpayer-backed loans to then invest into the airport. Wouldn't you love that, that you get to
00:05:11.720own a portion of the airport and the taxpayer is going to give you the loan for it, and then you
00:05:15.720can just kind of pay it back one-to-one as you're making money. It's passive income where there's no
00:05:21.000reason not to sign on. And so we're going to hurt the profitability of the airports for people in
00:05:27.040Canada Strong Fund, as well as the pension funds, because we're going to hive off any amount of it
00:05:33.020and give it to the indigenous band using taxpayer loans to let them acquire it. This is extremely
00:05:41.300stupid, not only financially, but in terms of corruption. Again, we're going to have a fund1.00
00:05:47.600that mark carney's liberal government is fully appointing the board of they are in charge of
00:05:53.380that fund it's not like other parts of the government where there might be some old timers
00:05:57.780who have been around for 20 years and they're not really going to just follow whatever the new
00:06:01.780government's orders are one-to-one they have a certain way of doing things they like investing
00:06:05.960the taxpayer money in certain ways they like you know going for certain types of projects no matter
00:06:11.040what the government says no no this is a brand new organization that's going to be staffed up
00:06:15.360with only Mark Carney drones, and they are going to buy the airports from the non-profit
00:06:21.460crown corporations that they're already under. This is asinine in the extreme and a massive0.93
00:06:28.420vector of corruption. It is the state selling assets to the deep state. It is corporatism0.98
00:06:35.740at large. We are private. Oh, it's a private free market entity that the state basically owns,
00:06:42.400so they can't do anything without the state's permission it's so dumb and what is this for
00:06:47.460really to get extra money in taxpayer coffers okay maybe the pension funds if they're private
00:06:53.140are giving some money to the government to buy these up and they can use that like few billion
00:06:58.000dollars to getting from them to make this deficit slightly less bad but this is a massive change
00:07:03.280for like no discernible benefit and in fact probably no discernible difference in how they're
00:07:10.200operating other than there is far less accountability than there used to be on what is actually going on
00:07:17.060with the airports. But now I want to move on to question period today because Parliament is back
00:07:22.640in session and I found this exchange between Conservative Party leader Pierre Polyev and
00:07:27.440Prime Minister Mark Carney to be quite curious. I find Mark Carney so shaky these days when it
00:07:33.340comes to answering basic questions like the man's flying high right now in most polls and his0.96
00:07:38.920approval ratings, but I find that even he seems to choke a little bit on the dumb words that he0.98
00:07:44.920is saying. Mark Carney is an actual smart man, and unlike Justin Trudeau, I think he actually0.92
00:07:50.820knows he's lying, he knows what he's saying is not correct, and it bothers him, but watch this
00:07:56.100exchange. The Honourable Leader of the Opposition, Prime Minister, welcome back to Parliament.
00:08:02.340To the Canadian people, the message of Conservatives is that we will fight to save you money this
00:08:07.560session of parliament. Save you money on your rent and mortgage. Save you money on gas and
00:08:12.580groceries. Save you money here at home at your kitchen table where you're paying more than ever
00:08:18.320for food because this prime minister is costing you. He doubled the deficit, increased industrial
00:08:24.280carbon taxes and other fuel taxes, driving up your cost of living. So to the prime minister,
00:08:29.700he said in March that affordability was the best it's been in a decade. Does he believe that or
00:08:35.640would he admit that people are paying more than ever here here here the right vulnerable prime
00:08:40.380minister mr speaker there's a reason we have answered uh mr speaker this government will
00:08:47.180continue this is some implication that somehow pure poly of his lying he absolutely said that
00:08:51.960and let the legis or in parliament like earlier in the spring that actually affordability is as
00:08:56.700bad as as good as it's been in 10 years it's like no that's not right and he's mentioning
00:09:01.020hansard because it's like the system they use to keep transcripts on what people said even then
00:09:05.900he's already kind of shaky from the beginning here because i think he's honestly not very
00:09:09.420good at this and he's been away from parliament too long mr speaker there's a reason we have
00:09:13.980hansard uh mr speaker this government will continue to work without fail to improve
00:09:21.260affordability for canadians cutting taxes on income cutting taxes on first-time buyers the
00:09:25.980The gross reason is the income tax cuts are a half a point for the first $50,000 where you don't even pay $18,000.
00:09:33.900You don't even pay anything on the first $18,000, I believe.
00:09:36.980It's nothing that you're getting money back on.
00:09:39.360It's ridiculous to even be marketing that.
00:09:41.680And they implemented their new clean fuel standard, a bunch of other stuff that's already jacking up other taxes elsewhere, mostly hidden taxes.
00:09:50.020So the liberals will lower your taxes slightly, but they'll make sure to implement another tax that gets them their money back.
00:09:55.980Certibility for Canadians, cutting taxes on income, cutting taxes on first-time buyers, the groceries and essential benefits.
00:10:02.200The next check is coming in October, 12 million Canadians getting the benefit.0.71
00:10:06.640Such a pathetic way of putting it. The check is in the mail, boys. Don't worry.0.93
00:10:12.040If you're living on government benefits, the check is in the mail.
00:10:16.100Just make sure you remember that around Christmas because Uncle Carney's looking out for you.
00:10:23.540Oh, you know, we're going to give you a rebate to help you with the fact that we made grocery prices unaffordable through all of our terrible taxes and regulations.
00:10:31.180Well, I gave you a few bucks back on it.
00:10:34.240Think about that next time you're voting.
00:10:36.160And above all, providing the essential social services that that member voted against.
00:15:19.560No, it is not zero. It is, in fact, much more than zero. Does he think that there's a way of putting a tax on something and not having it affect prices? If he is, maybe he is a wizard. But that's not how it works, and that's not how his own, I believe it's the Parliamentary Budget Office, has evaluated things. In fact, it does increase prices.
00:15:40.480I want to go immediately pause that to go over to the food professor who fact-checked this on the fly here, Sylvie in Charlebois.
00:15:59.620Ottawa's own modeling estimates millions in carbon price costs for food, beverages, and manufacturing in 2022.
00:16:05.700When the carbon tax was $20 per ton, now it's $110 per ton.
00:16:10.480Costs do not simply disappear. Absolutely. You can't just say, well, you know, there's no direct impact because it's the major corporations paying it, not the consumers. Who do you think they put the costs on, dummy? Yes, they eat some of them, but they're also going to put it onto the consumer because they're not just going to not make money in order to pay the industrial carbon tax.
00:16:32.740They're going to raise prices so that that can then pay off the increase, can pay off the carbon tax costs, and then the consumers end up still having to pay more so that they can maintain generally the same margins that they had before.
00:16:46.200Again, these people are just dull.0.99
00:16:49.000Either they're dull or they think you're dull, but I really doubt it if you're watching this video that you actually buy this crap.0.99
00:16:54.460The impact on clean fuel regulations on a bushel of canola is over a dollar.0.99
00:17:02.740A bushel of canola in Battle River, Crowfoot.
00:17:31.920His own Environment Department report reveals that the impact of the fuel standard is seven cents this year, rising to 17 cents per litre by the end of the decade.
00:17:45.320So he should check his own documents or he should listen to Justin, who told me in a letter on August 11th, 2026, I cannot afford to eat properly.
00:17:54.300I skip meals and rely on cereal for breakfast.
00:17:57.200I'm incredibly frugal, but my debts are still growing faster.
00:18:00.880i constantly stress and cry over my financials the middle class is being eliminated mr speaker
00:18:07.760will he look justin in the eye and tell him that affordability is the best it's been in a decade
00:18:12.500i always find it sometimes cheesy when people invoke the actual name of someone who wrote them
00:18:19.320in it's not bad just not usually my style but mark carney whiffs this really bad
00:18:23.920because it only comes off as belittling when he also picks up the naming convention here
00:18:30.880Mr. Speaker, this government is working for Justin.
00:18:35.420This government is working for Justine and the Justins and Justines across this country.
