Justin Trudeau is on a bizarre YouTube media tour, where instead of going on mainstream news shows, he's now going on the YouTube channels of advocacy groups. It doesn't matter what you do as an interviewer to make him look good, you can lob the ball at him as slowly as humanly possible and that boy is not connecting with the ball. It's hilarious.

I think it's safe to say that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is the undisputed master
00:00:05.260
of scuffing friendly interviews. It doesn't matter what you do as an interviewer to make
00:00:10.520
him look good, you can lob the ball at him as slowly as humanly possible and that boy
00:00:15.760
is not connecting with the ball. He cannot answer easy questions to make himself look
00:00:20.460
good. It's hilarious to watch. And now Justin Trudeau is on this very strange YouTube media
00:00:27.300
tour where instead of going on to mainstream news shows, he's now going on to the YouTube
00:00:32.360
channels of these tiny advocacy groups because even the legacy media these days are asking
00:00:37.900
him decently tough questions because they have to because they would lose all of their
00:00:42.700
credibility unless they ask him and some of his cabinet ministers some critical questions
00:00:47.400
about their failing agenda and bad election results. So now Justin Trudeau is going to
00:00:53.120
turn his back on CBC, CTV News, CP24 and all the rest of the news agencies he subsidizes
00:00:59.580
and he's turning to advocacy organizations where I'm not sure if the government subsidizes
00:01:04.360
them but it seems that way based on how friendly they are to Justin Trudeau. But even in this
00:01:10.060
one interview I found that's absolutely hilarious with Generation Squeeze which is this ridiculous
00:01:16.000
affordability intergenerational fairness organization. It doesn't matter how hard the interviewer is
00:01:22.700
trying to lick Justin Trudeau's feet. Just make him look good as good as possible. I'm not obviously
00:01:29.000
going to show you a lot of this interview. It's like 33 minutes. The first seven minutes is just the
00:01:33.220
interviewer gushing about how great Justin Trudeau is and how great budget 2024 is. Objectively the least
00:01:39.700
popular budget his government has ever released. Justin Trudeau somehow hangs himself during this
00:01:45.140
interview. Justin Trudeau starts opening fire during the interview on Justin Trudeau. He keeps
00:01:51.520
describing all the problems with the country and keeps saying that we do a terrible job at this and
00:01:55.900
we do a terrible job at that not realizing that he's critiquing himself. It's not even like it's
00:02:01.920
hard for me to even it sounds like I'm being like I'm exaggerating and that Justin Trudeau must have
00:02:06.940
just said you know we have problems in Canada. He no no he literally says that we are bad at getting
00:02:13.400
affordable housing in this country and then moves on to not even understand that that is a shot across
00:02:18.820
his own bow. But check this out. But before I get into the video I do need to comment on the guy
00:02:24.760
sitting behind it Justin Trudeau and the interviewer. Hopefully I don't get in trouble
00:02:29.820
because I don't know why. I don't know what this guy was wearing during this interview but he had a
00:02:34.240
purse with him and he had these like women's shoes on and he's like this giant eyesore during the
00:02:40.700
without further ado I wouldn't have forgiven myself unless I noted that very distracting
00:02:48.280
gentleman in the background. Here is Justin Trudeau attacking himself.
00:02:53.700
And I tend to think that if we were a country that did a better job in helping people plan for
00:03:03.720
retirement in better pensions so there wouldn't be that massive gap in terms of people who rent
00:03:11.200
you know throughout their lives like there are lots of cities around the world where people just
00:03:15.700
accept that they're going to rent their entire lives but they're not feeling they're going to be
00:03:19.900
impoverished in retirement. Does he not say those things and realize that maybe it's me and my liberal
00:03:28.060
government that's been in power for nine years that might have made it so that Canadians don't feel like
00:03:33.580
they can actually save and if they needed to they could rent forever comfortably. Maybe that's the
00:03:38.920
problem with the system that you've constructed but Justin Trudeau likes to do this sort of thing where
00:03:43.940
he's a very small prime minister in his head. He's doing as best a job as he can but he's a very small
00:03:49.960
not powerful man so he's sitting there just trying to do his best while Canada is failing. Canada's
00:03:57.520
failing but he's not. We do a bad job but he's not meaning we as in the liberal government.
00:04:03.580
Meaning like a collective all of us over here are bad at it. That's just him attacking himself but
00:04:09.160
he doesn't get it because Justin Trudeau has an inability to understand that criticism can apply
00:04:14.260
to him. So when he says we he assumes that you're dumb enough to think about it in the same way he
00:04:19.700
does and assume that yeah I guess as a country you know us maple leaf people are not very good at
00:04:26.440
allowing people to save for retirement and you know invest in their futures and have like pensions that
00:04:32.920
can pay for their uh for their like later life that's you that's literally you and somehow he
00:04:39.580
doesn't get it at all. Well other people who rent and people rent in Canada feel like they have a big
00:04:46.760
piece of a nest egg that's simply not there because they've been renters all their lives.
00:04:51.000
That's there's a there's a challenge there that I think there are elements of policy uh policy
00:04:57.340
solutions but the big thing is we just have to. There might be there might be some policy solutions
00:05:02.680
to this problem. Hmm as the prime minister of this country I think that these issues might have a
00:05:09.620
policy solution to them. I can tell you right now the policy solution is lowering immigration.
00:05:15.120
If you're wondering why there's not enough people for homes it might be because we are only building
00:05:20.600
230,000 homes a year and that's not even a bad figure. That's a pretty good amount of houses per year
00:05:26.640
but maybe it's the problem that we build that many houses but then we let in more than 1.2 million people
00:05:31.900
into the country in the year 2023 and now 2024 might be even higher. And I'm going to just take a
00:05:38.660
sidestep off like away from this interview for a second just to talk about the organization that's hosting
00:05:43.920
this interview Generation Squeeze. On their website I went to their affordability section
00:05:48.840
affordability for housing section and in this very very long website page of just talking about all
00:05:55.140
the different policy solutions that they've thought of for this issue all the different ways of having
00:06:00.620
greater generational fairness and housing at no point do they use the word immigration. They do not.
00:06:06.900
This is why Justin Trudeau is sitting down with them because they are fully in the tank for his big
00:06:11.620
government like vision for how solutions should be solved in Canada. They like immigration. The only the
00:06:17.700
time they use a word like immigration they say immigrants because they're sympathizing with new
00:06:22.460
Canadians not being able to afford houses. And so we need to solve that by like forcing the government
00:06:28.720
to purchase houses for people or capping rents or basically having the government just construct
00:06:34.600
affordable housing or buying old houses off the market and then having them then resold to younger
00:06:40.000
Canadians at low prices. This is what the entire organization stands for. Big government effectively
00:06:45.700
socialist solutions to housing. Nothing about immigration because they don't actually care about
00:06:50.740
the country. So they don't care if immigration is a drag on wages and inflating prices all across the
00:06:56.460
board. They only care about socialist big government issues. And actually immigration is forcing these to
00:07:02.940
become bigger issues which might give them the window to then pitch their socialist solutions. So they
00:07:08.100
actually don't want immigration lowered because if it was lowered housing you know job growth this stuff
00:07:14.620
wouldn't be a crisis. But in here I'm going to go back to Justin Trudeau now pretending that there might be a
00:07:20.620
there might be a policy solution to this. I'm not sure about that. Well a prime minister of Canada a policy
00:07:25.980
solution? Ridiculous. Slow down on the speculation right? I mean like housing housing prices and value should
00:07:33.660
should should increase over a lifestyle life. So yeah so guys it's the speculators fault that housing
00:07:40.700
prices are going up. Not not the increased artificial demand from immigration. It's the speculators fault
00:07:46.140
because they're just being dirty capitalists and not letting younger Canadians have affordable housing.
00:07:53.420
If you shouldn't be able to flip a home you know eight years later and have it double the price right? I mean there's there's
00:07:59.660
that housing has doubled in price since he became prime minister. You can't make this stuff up. He knows
00:08:06.140
how bad the problem is. He's articulating it and yet he still cannot pin the tail on the donkey that is
00:08:12.860
Justin Trudeau. He knows that there's someone out there causing these problems but he doesn't know who
00:08:18.220
it is but he's going to get to the bottom of it. Something unsustainable and it moves
00:08:23.420
housing into an investment vehicle rather than a vehicle for you know supporting a family and building
00:08:35.980
a community around it. And as soon as it's an investment vehicle you have people who have money
00:08:41.420
using it as a way of generating more as opposed to saying okay everyone should have an opportunity to do
00:08:47.740
this. So we would if immigration wasn't so high I feel like a broken record even mentioning it
00:08:55.100
but that's the solution but he's pretending like it's capitalism's fault that the conditions that
00:09:00.700
he's created are not accruing to everybody's benefit so he's created horrible a horrible situation
00:09:07.900
and it's capitalism's fault for not deciding to just give out free houses to make up for the horrible
00:09:13.500
circumstances that Justin Trudeau has plunged us all into. And now here's the host right here who's
00:09:18.380
going to say some soft nothing comments in order to try and set Justin Trudeau up to not embarrass
00:09:24.300
himself in the next answer. But at Gen Squeeze when we talk about that theme we refer to housing should
00:09:29.740
be for homes first and investment second. Of course. And it's quite a cultural shift in Canada though
00:09:35.820
for us to actually think that we don't want home prices to rise really any longer. In fact for the
00:09:40.860
next many many years it would be great if they minimally stalled so that people's earnings would
00:09:44.460
have a chance to catch up. But that is a mental shift that's a mental model and it requires asking
00:09:48.700
an older demographic to come on board with that. Now I think it literally doesn't require asking
00:09:55.020
an older demographic to do anything. It requires asking Justin Trudeau the man to your direct right
00:10:01.820
to put a cap on immigration to make there to be less artificial incentives to immigrate to Canada
00:10:07.340
when there's no houses that are available. This is so patronizing and I love like this is
00:10:12.300
pretty much it. I don't really need to go into the video further. You guys kind of get the point.
00:10:16.220
I love this pretentious camera angle like we're gonna we're gonna go watch all of the people
00:10:21.660
watching the interviews. I'm trying to get back to this one cut they made. It's hard to find this
00:10:25.820
pinpointed. But like where they're like showing everyone sitting in the crowd really really doing a
00:10:29.980
big thing about housing and about the solutions that we we can all collectively come up with to
00:10:36.300
just ask older Canadians to pay a little bit more so that they can so that people can actually live
00:10:42.140
in their own house for a change. I'm sorry I'm trying to find this ridiculous camera angle. I hate
00:10:47.900
stuff like this. It's like meant to invoke this idea that like you know look at all these people
00:10:51.980
really contributing to the to the conversation because they're watching these guys do this ridiculous
00:10:57.740
interview. I cannot find this anymore. Okay but you got my point. You guys remember what I just
00:11:01.900
looked at a second ago. But these people are so disconnected from reality and even with these
00:11:08.140
just delusional fools asking Justin Trudeau softball questions he still ends up describing himself as the
00:11:15.100
problem without ever actually being able to figure it out. He then tries to pivot to say it's capitalism's
00:11:20.700
fault and the idiot interviewing him then says oh no no it's actually older Canadians just not getting it.
00:11:26.780
Guys housing used to be cheap because you weren't having to compete with 60 other people to purchase
00:11:33.740
every house on the market. That's the big problem today and it's it's not complicated. It's the government
00:11:40.380
shouldn't be artificially trying to increase or decrease supply and demand. They should just let it go. Basic
00:11:47.980
economics 101. But that's too complicated for these guys. Anyways that should be it for me today guys. If you want to
