00:00:00.000Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.
00:00:06.020I found it really funny over the past few days when people were saying that if you were criticizing
00:00:10.920Doug Ford for trying to get into a bun fight with President Donald Trump, then you don't
00:00:15.800support Canada and you must be secretly hoping America wins this tariff war. No, it was just
00:00:21.580always a very stupid thing for Ford to be doing. My evidence? He has now been basically told to
00:00:27.440shut up because either we're probably going to go back to the negotiating table and actually
00:00:31.600try and hammer out a proper deal or at the very least it wasn't helping and they're scared of
00:00:37.440what donald trump was going to do in response to doug ford trying to throw rhetorical haymakers at
00:00:42.780him this was him a few days ago when he was talking tough and then we're going to jump
00:00:48.140forward to him on cnn walking it all back okay i was just wondering you sound a little more
00:00:53.080a dude that you did this morning on the radio when you said donald trump could kiss your ass did the
00:00:57.960prime minister tell you to ask you to tone it down a bit no he didn't i'm not going to comment but
00:01:04.600he wasn't against that and i have a lot of real estate on my ass so he has a lot of room to kiss
00:01:09.640my ass so i just do good good job doug ford yes he has a fat butt and that's supposed to mean
00:01:18.680something or whatever uh doug for uh you know donald trump can kiss my butt okay thanks kevin
00:01:26.480from home alone why did we make you premier of ontario like again how is this helpful and you'll
00:01:32.580have people say well donald trump is rude and okay and how does this actually get us to a deal
00:01:39.880and this is my problem with people like doug ford mark carney and a lot of the other premiers except
00:01:44.740for Scott Moe and Danielle Smith. They don't seem to know what a good deal is or a bad deal. And
00:01:51.160they don't understand what an effective tactic and what an ineffective tactic is. They just do what
00:01:56.340feels right. So Carney was about to sign a trade deal and was going to accept 25% tariffs on
00:02:02.480aluminum and steel. He thought that was good. That was actually the bad part of the deal that we need
00:02:06.760to adjust lower. But the thing he thought was bad was that the Americans wanted us to get rid of
00:02:12.240cultural language regulations like Bill C-11 and Bill C-18, and also, hey, stop integrating so
00:02:19.000closely with Communist China. That was Carney's red lines, which makes me have no faith in him
00:02:25.120actually being able to get a good deal. If he does get a good deal, it's not going to be because of
00:02:29.560Mark Carney. It's going to be because someone forces him to sign on to a much better deal.
00:02:34.420But now let's jump over to Doug Ford on CNN with Wolf Blitzer, where he now is heavily walking
00:02:41.480back what he said and saying that we need to turn down the temperature. The fact that this guy is
00:02:45.980going to say that it got heated on both sides is so ridiculous. Just own what you did. Stop saying
00:02:51.840it was on both sides then when you're the one who threw the on fire bag of dog crap into the dance
00:02:57.820floor. It sounds like your frustration with President Trump and his tariffs policy against
00:03:03.680Canada's escalating. Would it be wiser to take the temperature down a bit right now between these two
00:03:09.620long time great allies and this is being asked by wolf blitzer who is a died in the wool democrat
00:03:17.780he does not like donald trump at all if wolf blitzer is suggesting that maybe you're going
00:03:23.540a little too hard you're probably going a little bit too hard and by the way for all those canadians
00:03:27.940out there who think well well doug ford and carney are being smart they're going to try
00:03:32.020and get donald trump to lose the midterms and then they can get a better deal with democrats
00:03:36.660It's like, well, he's still going to be the president. And historically, Democrats are more pro-trade protectionism.
00:03:43.720If, let's say, Kamala Harris was president right now, she would probably be doing potentially some of the same things.
00:03:49.940Or if she became president right after Trump now, she'd keep it all in place because blue voting steel towns like this sort of thing.
00:03:58.120Trump is doing this protectionist stuff to try and win Democrat territory.
00:04:01.760But now let's listen to Doug Ford responding to Wolf Blitzer here.
00:04:06.660I think so of all things got a little heated it got a little personal yesterday between the
00:04:13.320president and myself but I want to make a deal a good deal for the American people good deal for
00:04:18.700the Canadians and we're the two greatest countries in the world we're each other's number one
00:04:23.740customer and it's time to get back to the table and let's negotiate a fair deal because it's
00:04:30.880hurting uh the u.s it's uh hurting canada and we just want to make sure that we have a fair uh deal
00:04:38.560such a different tone though things got a little heated things that got a little bit personal
00:04:43.860between me and the president yes but you clearly started it and you can say well he started with
00:04:48.680the terrorists okay but in this particular scenario when we're trying to get a trade deal
00:04:54.320which apparently doug ford cares about it was not helpful and like i don't know what happened to him
00:04:59.440He sounded so subdued there, like right before he went on CNN, Mark Carney stopped him in the hallway and like injected some like lithium into his neck and said, please just shut up for a little bit so we can get a good deal.
00:05:10.780I don't even have faith in Mark Carney, but Mark Carney isn't Doug Ford levels of stupid about his rhetoric.
00:05:17.620Mark Carney is kind of a he's a weasel.
00:05:20.680He knows how to phrase his anti-American rhetoric in such a way where he can like walk it back later.
00:05:26.460When I said we need to have middle powers and, you know, walk away from the great power rivalry, I wasn't saying anything anti-American.
00:05:34.200I was just saying, you know, smaller countries should trade more with each other.
00:05:37.480He always phrases stuff in a safe way where Doug Ford absolutely does not.
00:05:42.060And one of the very delicious things that followed right after Doug Ford did a big walk back of his fight with Donald Trump is he was walking through the halls of Queens Park and was being asked about why he was doing this.
00:06:39.700They walk away from the negotiating table rather than just saying, hey, regardless of who was making last minute demands, let's extend this for another week and let's hammer out a deal.
00:06:47.900Instead, we walked away because Carney wanted that little boost to his approval rating so he could run around saying, well, I'm the people's champion because I said no to a deal.
00:06:57.920And it's like, that's great and all, but can we have a prime minister who gets a deal?
00:07:03.140Again, I'm never saying sign something bad.
00:07:17.000value value for canadians is represented by low tariff rates right now the auto tariffs
00:07:23.620it's seven percent on most cars and i think heavy trucks it's 15 okay i don't like the 15
00:07:30.040if we can let's try and get it all down to seven or maybe heavy trucks 10 when it comes to steel
00:07:35.540and aluminum it's 25 apparently i've heard other sources saying it was actually going to be
00:07:40.060on certain quota levels it was going to only be 10 or 15 or whatever but let's try and get that 25
00:07:46.240down to 12 down to 10 that would be great what we need to stop doing though is drawing red lines
00:07:53.440around things canadians do not need like if mark carney is watching this video you want to follow
00:07:59.460me for a second here because there will be a point that you need to absorb canada does not
00:08:05.900need a deal with china canada does not need a deal with any other country that is not the united
00:08:14.280States. It's not because I love the United States so much I like the United States. It's because
00:08:19.740we trade with them 78% in terms of our exports. We trade a lot with them. If the United States
00:08:26.780told me, hey, you guys can't, I'm the Prime Minister of Canada. Hey, why, I don't want you
00:08:32.020and Canada trading with Ireland. I would say, sure, whatever. We barely trade with them anyways. Okay,
00:08:37.680we'll wait until Trump's gone and then we'll start trading with them again. For now, we won't
00:08:41.280Because you care about that 78%. Stay focused and get to the things that Canadians care about. But instead, Carney is getting all offended about America not liking us integrating with China more, who Carney himself said was our biggest national security threat.
00:08:58.920He is being tripped up by Trump saying no bilingual cheerio boxes,
00:09:04.640or at the very least American companies shouldn't have to pay for the bilingual cheerio boxes.
00:09:08.780That is apparently a deal breaker for Carney.
00:09:11.260C-11, C-18, deal breakers for Carney, things that Canadians don't like.
00:09:14.960And at the same time, everything in a negotiation has value.
00:09:20.180If the other side cares about it, it has value to put on the table.
00:09:23.480So why in the name of Saeed, I don't even know who Saeed is, I'm just throwing a name out, who in the name of Chekhov decided that we're going to get rid of the DST, the digital services tax, the streaming tax, and give half of the net revenues on the Gordie Howe bridge, which Carney lied about.
00:09:45.360That's why we don't trust him on what's in the deal until we see the official deal. Why in the name of all that is like right in this world did you get rid of those three things when you weren't even at the negotiating table and you could take those things that were valuable to the United States to get rid of and say, okay, if you want these three things, maybe with us getting rid of the Chinese EV deal and getting rid of C11, C18,
00:10:15.060You need your tariffs down to 7% across the board, or if not outright eliminated like we were going to get for softwood, which makes it so insane that David Eby is backing Mark Carney on this, when the only thing that David Eby should care about here is softwood tariffs, and Jameson Greer apparently was offering 0% softwood tariffs.
00:10:34.100like what are we doing why are we mucking around with things that we do not care about uh i want
00:10:43.200to play this clip too this was from uh i believe it was actually from today although it looks like
00:10:48.160the original clip i played of doug ford doug ford uh being reported by table salt here just in doug
00:10:54.660ford discovers that canadian oil is shipped through the u.s back to canada quote i have to give credit
00:10:59.340to Danielle Smith, she came up with these ideas
00:11:01.320to reroute Canadian oil through Canada.
00:12:15.980But Premier Smith came up with some great ideas.
00:12:19.400right now we're getting our fuel and our natural gas coming down to the U.S. and coming back up
00:12:26.780to Canada. Craziest thing I've ever heard in my life. It's so funny that he doesn't know how oil
00:12:31.920and gas products go from Alberta to his province because again yeah you can't exactly ship it all
00:12:38.360on trains or all on trucks. You know the more efficient route right now is going through the
00:12:42.660United States then coming back up into southern Ontario to where the majority of the population
00:12:46.360is. The fact he doesn't know this is just proof positive that we are being led by morons. And I
00:12:53.440guess the one thing, we don't need to listen to any more of that clip. I will give Trump some
00:12:57.460credit here. All these politicians, Trump, Carney, Doug Ford, David Eby, Susan Holt, Wobcanoe,
00:13:03.300they're all, everyone except Scott and Danielle, they're all in the doghouse. I've created a dog
00:13:07.440house. I've placed them in that doghouse. But if I was to tell Donald Trump that he's done one
00:13:12.660thing right he has made some liberal politicians realize the value of having a proper economy
00:13:18.600of having a pipeline that goes from west to east or east to west from you know alberta the west
00:13:25.340coast or the east coast oh my goodness at least donald trump has at least gotten them to acknowledge
00:13:29.660that much now are they actually going to do it i don't have that much faith in them because that
00:13:34.020requires long-term commitment to a good idea and these people only ever have long-term commitments
00:13:39.200to horrible ideas by the way isn't it really funny that we are currently upset that america
00:13:46.100is tariffing us which we should be i don't like tariffs but we're so upset about that but where's
00:13:51.140the day-to-day outrage that basically canadian provinces tariff each other and block each other's
00:13:56.300trade we literally have internal trade barriers that mark carney has had 10 000 meetings on
00:14:00.920meetings about with the premiers and nothing has happened and then we're going to go down
00:14:05.920to the United States and like wag our finger at them like, oh, can't believe you would tariff us.
00:14:10.340Don't you realize that increases costs for consumers, your own consumers? Well, what do
00:14:14.840our tariffs do? What do our crappy regulations do? This is a Mark Warner point. He was on CBC and
00:14:20.740says, we always like to tell Americans, oh, you know that your costs on your grocery shelves are
00:14:25.920going up because of these tariffs. Why don't we acknowledge the same truth when it comes to
00:14:30.500supply management, our internal trade barriers, and our counter tariffs? It's all affecting us.
00:14:35.920It's not saying that there's no value in retaliatory tariffs as long as you're using it as leverage to try and get back down to zero tariffs, but that never feels like what the liberals and leftist premiers are actually trying to do.
