00:00:47.980How could it not be? I mean, seven MPs, four of which have defected to the government side,
00:00:54.960three, including Mr. Brock, could just say, look, I'm going to do something else with
00:00:58.740my time. I'm going to do something else with my career. Frankly, it feels like a slow motion
00:01:05.500vote of non-confidence. It's like a gradual mutiny. There's no accelerating moment. It
00:01:11.220isn't like anyone's bringing forward a vote against Mr. Polio's leadership. But when you
00:01:17.820lose seven caucus members in a year, when you lose a majority to your opponent when you had
00:01:22.340held him to a minority. All of that speaks very troublingly to the status of your leadership.
00:01:29.760By the way, Mark Carney and the Liberals have lost, I believe, like five MPs to resignations.
00:01:36.320People like Chrystia Freeland and Jonathan Wilkinson and Nate Erskine-Smith. There's a few
00:01:41.940others in there as well. Sometimes people just resign. Sometimes there's a story behind it.
00:01:47.040Sometimes there isn't. In fact, with the Liberal MPs who've resigned, it was more clear-cut that
00:01:52.800they just don't like Mark Carney. Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney have really bad blood
00:01:58.400when he basically threw her under the bus for all the economic problems under Justin Trudeau,
00:02:03.960even though he was the economic policy advisor to Prime Minister Trudeau.
00:02:08.760Nate Erskine-Smith also famously disliked Mark Carney. Jonathan Wilkinson's more of a mixed bag.
00:02:14.740I never focused on that one as much for good reason, because he was more so an aging politician who was probably looking for an easier job.
00:02:22.200So he was going to get out of office while he was ahead.
00:02:25.580But Larry Brock, he is currently leaving his riding of Brantford, Brant South, Six Nations because he has a personal medical issue.
00:02:35.060He is leaving because the job of MP can be really hard on you.
00:02:39.560He is 61 years old, which is not super old in any way.
00:02:42.800But the thing is, if you have an underlying medical problem that's just making the job tougher, all the travel, really early mornings and really late nights are not desirable.
00:02:53.320That is what people who know Larry Brock have been saying, that this is absolutely a personal reason for having to leave office.
00:03:00.820He's absolutely a committed orthodox conservative, and he is very likely to campaign in favor of the person replacing him in the riding.
00:03:09.020And yet we have Scott Reid here just assuming that this has everything to do with Pierre Polyev based on what? Nothing. I'm sorry, people resigning does not simply mean that it's a Pierre Polyev problem. People crossing the floor doesn't even necessarily mean that. Michael Ma, who crossed the floor, is obviously a CCP agent based on all of his actions since crossing the floor and some before. So that doesn't say anything about Pierre Polyev.
00:03:36.880Chris Dontremont still has never articulated a problem with Pierre Polyev.
00:03:40.680He just makes vague insinuations that Polyev's a bad guy, yo,
00:03:44.200when everyone knows that he wanted the deputy speaker job
00:03:47.220and freaked out when he wasn't given it,
00:03:49.160and instead Tom Kamik was given the deputy speaker role,
00:09:15.480It's still a tough job, but you don't need to be constantly traveling, which really sucks the life out of you.
00:09:19.800And if you have anything that's limiting you medically, it's really devastating to be constantly waking up at like four in the morning to travel to Ottawa, coming back home late at night, you know, staying very late in Parliament, waking up sometimes at 5.37 to make sure you're there for the opening of Parliament.
00:09:39.520That can be hard on you if you have anything that's maybe fatiguing you.
00:09:42.920If Hendy Fry tomorrow, the liberal MP from Vancouver, I believe Vancouver Granville or something like that, might not be her riding.
00:09:50.880But if she resigned tomorrow, I wouldn't be pumping out a video saying, wow, this really says something about Mark Carney.
00:14:59.400But if you actually wanted to take a pound of flesh out of Polyev, if you were disillusioned,
00:15:03.360the letter would read like he was disillusioned.
00:15:06.540But anyways, now I want to move on to another topic here. So job numbers are in for the month of July, and it actually does look good for Mark Carney and the Liberals. I never want to ever cover up, you know, good news for the Liberal government here.
00:15:22.680Now, I'm going to temper the good news by pointing out that people are very much rating Mark Carney on a curve here. Here is Richard Diaz saying, credit where it is due, public sector employment as a share of total is falling. And in the month of July, about 75,000 jobs were created. Now, that's good. I'm not going to complain about that.
00:15:44.520I want to see less public sector jobs and I want to see more private sector jobs.
00:16:02.220Now, we'll wait a couple of months and see how many of them are actually going to be permanent jobs and how many are going to be summer jobs.
00:16:07.800I suspect a good portion are summer jobs when you see how many of the jobs were created in areas like retail or professional services and stuff like that.
00:16:17.340A lot of this could end up being hospitality industry, things to do with Stampede in Alberta, things to do with other festivals going on around the country.
00:16:26.720You know, people working in industries where naturally you only work the summer and then in the winter you're finding a different job or you're just working a summer job because you're a student.
00:16:36.160I actually found out today, which is shocking, you know, this Canadian summer jobs program where they cover 100% of the minimum wage cost for, you know, young people and students who are working if it's a nonprofit and they cover up to 50% if it's a private company or corporation, if it's a, you know, youth summer job.
00:16:55.900I found out those actually often do not get counted out in terms of seasonal adjustments.
00:17:02.980Those are just counted into the numbers, and they are not seasonally adjusted out, which proves my point that seasonally adjusting numbers is just useless.0.88
00:17:11.520We might as well not do it, because it becomes a hiding place for idiots to be able to say, well, no, actually all these are permanent jobs because they're seasonally adjusted.
00:17:20.240Seasonal adjustment really does not count a lot of this stuff.0.97
00:17:24.120and kirk lubomov here says canada added 75 000 jobs in july but the interesting important data
00:17:31.260is the full-time jobs those this is what it looks like by province so a lot of full-time jobs created
00:17:37.700in british columbia and quebec newfoundland labrador manitoba nova scotia and then there
00:17:43.500was actually job losses in ontario alberta saskatchewan new brunswick and prince edward
00:17:48.560Island. Now, what I would point out there is that if it's this many jobs concentrated in places like
00:17:55.820British Columbia and Quebec, that probably has more to do with government subsidies than you
00:18:01.180would think. And remember, the World Cup was in British Columbia. British Columbia's job market
00:18:07.320sucks. It is terrible. They're usually losing jobs unless they're subsidized. And when you actually1.00
00:18:14.380look at the underlying numbers here there is a lot of jobs suddenly created in the lumber sector
00:18:21.260people who are harvesting and processing lumber that is a bit suspicious because in british
00:18:28.140columbia the lumber industry has been dying longer than i was going to make a dark joke and i'm just
00:18:36.180going to not, but it's been dying for a very long time. So when suddenly it gets 8,000 jobs
00:18:45.380in British Columbia in a single month, that feels more like the relief subsidies from the government
00:18:52.700because of tariffs, more than actual organic job creation, because every single month we have seen
00:18:59.200mills closing. So as mills are closing, how are more people being hired? That just sounds like
00:19:04.740jobs are being filled at existing mills because of subsidies because if you're offered money to
00:19:10.540employ people well why not take it so you have world cup jobs which are full-time jobs but
00:19:17.360they're temporary that are also going to be going away that we're still existing in july
00:19:22.220those jobs are going to be going away probably you're going to have these subsidy jobs that
00:19:27.340will go away as soon as the subsidy money runs out or a trade deal is struck and so when i look
00:19:33.480at this, I'm happy we're creating jobs, but the concentration of it in BC and Quebec does shout
00:19:40.040subsidized. This is not organic growth. And by the way, we are celebrating having what is a 6.4
00:19:47.380or 6.2, it's in the 6% range, low 6% range, 6% unemployment. That is like nearly twice what the
00:19:56.560U.S. is at, I believe they're at like 3.2% or so, we're at like 6.1, 6.2%. Absolutely ridiculous0.76
00:20:04.240that we even are going to be spinning up all these great headlines about how good of a job
00:20:08.800Mark Carney is doing, when by any actual G7 standard, our unemployment is absolutely terrible.
00:20:15.880We are chipping away at a problem that we have been accumulating for more than 10 years under
00:20:21.220the Liberals, which Mark Carney was an advisor on. And by the way, a lot of the jobs being created
00:20:26.620are in part more so just recovering jobs that we have lost in 2025 and early 2026. So the actual
00:20:35.380change since Mark Carney became prime minister, or maybe before the big job drop off when the
00:20:41.980tariffs first hit, when you compare that level to the current level, basically nothing has changed.
00:20:47.720And that level wasn't good. We haven't gotten back to a good level. We've gotten back to basically the crappy, low-growth recession level that we had under Justin Trudeau before the tariffs hit. But we are grading Mark Carney on a curve, so no doubt we're going to see a bunch of articles about how this just demonstrates how much of a powerhouse he is.
00:21:07.140And in two months, when all the summer jobs start dropping off, we're not going to have people saying, oh, my goodness, Mark Carney's doing such a bad job.
00:21:14.940In liberal Canada, we count the rise and we just ignore the falls.
00:21:20.020If you go off of a liberal media, we actually have like 200 percent employment probably eventually because we only ever count the rise.
00:21:28.000And then we just ignore whenever a bunch of jobs slough off.
00:21:30.780Like when Carney in like November and December of 25 was like, oh, look, 150,000 new jobs were created.
00:21:38.060That really demonstrates the power of Carney-nomics.
00:21:40.480And then ignored in January when all those holiday jobs just like died.
00:21:45.020We lost like 180,000 jobs in a single month in January.
00:21:49.360And I don't even blame him for most of those because they're just seasonal holiday jobs.
00:21:53.580I do blame him for the permanent full-time jobs lost.
