Summary

In this episode, we talk about the ridiculousness of the government's new mandate to wear masks in public during R.I.P. season, and why it's time to get your masks ready to wear them.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 It's really funny to watch the Liberals keep stepping in it these days, and one of the big ones that they're about to step in is the assumption that they can force Canadians back into masking when they go out in public.
00:00:12.380 I think that Canadians are very much over it, and the Liberals have cried wolf a few too many times for Canadians to actually take the mandates and requests by the government to mask seriously.
00:00:22.820 I just want to play this quick clip right here because, one, I think it's so ridiculous the way that this journalist pitches this question to the Liberals, and I think that Theresa Tam's effective, like, call to everyone remasking is completely ridiculous, but here it is right here.
00:00:39.280 Just as a follow-up, I'm sorry to cut you off, but I just wanted to take note, you're all masking, which is lovely to see, of course, but most government ministers are not now, most MPs are not, most people on the street are not masking.
00:00:50.960 Is there any specific guidance on that going forward at this point?
00:00:57.400 Yes, Theresa Tam, so it is a layer of protection.
00:01:01.040 We hope people have developed the habit to be able to use masks as needed during the respiratory virus season, not just for COVID, but for all the other respiratory pathogens that will be transmitted around this time.
00:01:14.080 So I do think now is the time to get your masks ready if you don't already have them.
00:01:19.800 In our own particular context, we, certainly in our area, there's been an uptick in some of the COVID-19 indicators.
00:01:29.520 For me personally, there have been cases around, you know, even my work colleagues.
00:01:37.060 So that's one of the reasons why we are wearing masks today.
00:01:41.460 Yeah, just completely ridiculous.
00:01:46.660 I just want to start off with that stupid question from that journalist.
00:01:49.780 I don't know what publication he's from, but he's like, oh, it's so great to see that you're all masking.
00:01:54.240 That's fantastic.
00:01:55.480 Why is it good to see the masking?
00:01:57.100 Does it make sense for them to be masking?
00:01:58.900 And then Theresa Tam's ridiculous response that, you know, I think Canadians need to get used to masking around respiratory illness season.
00:02:07.020 You mean flu season, that thing that happens every single year for several months at a time?
00:02:11.900 You seriously want Canadians to get used to masking for like four or five months out of the year every year.
00:02:19.100 It's ridiculous.
00:02:20.680 People should just live their lives and they don't need to be constantly paranoid of respiratory illnesses.
00:02:26.380 If anything, you're making sure that your living standard is far worse having to pay for all these masks in order to just avoid contact with other people.
00:02:35.200 But I think that this just demonstrates how the Liberal Party, as well as the Liberal bureaucrats, are completely out of touch with Canadians.
00:02:43.400 I don't think that Canadians are ever going to comply with these mandates or recommendations from the government to mask anymore.
00:02:49.780 And I think that all it does is remind them of just the authoritarian control that the Liberal Party and different provincial governments took during COVID.
00:02:58.460 Nobody wants to go back to that era.
00:03:00.100 But it's because Theresa Tatt has nothing left in her career other than the fact that she's the mask and COVID-19 lady that she can't drop the issue.
00:03:07.800 And I think when you see a government who keeps spinning their tires on the exact same issue over and over again, you're seeing a dead government.
00:03:14.820 I don't see Justin Trudeau's Liberals recovering from the current polling side that they're in.
00:03:19.460 And it's because of things like this.
00:03:21.000 They can never admit to making a mistake, so they're only ever going to justify why they did what they did and then keep pushing the exact same things as the solution.
00:03:30.920 COVID-19 and respiratory illnesses are not a significant problem.
00:03:35.360 If we had Black Death breaking out across Canada, you wouldn't have to tell anyone to wear a hazmat suit and stay away from other people.
00:03:42.780 If a problem is serious, you don't have to mandate that people take it seriously.
00:03:48.760 If anything, mandates actually make people take it less seriously because in their mind, if it was serious, they would take it seriously.
00:03:56.060 This is where I think that Justin Trudeau's Liberals have effectively entered what is a death spiral.
00:04:02.080 All they're going to be doing every single year up until the 2025 election is trying to generate fake crises to try and recreate the sort of COVID-19 era of Canada, trying to push people back into being paranoid of things like COVID-19, the freedom convoy, right-wing extremism, to see if they can find an issue polarizing enough that maybe they can get their base out to help them survive in government.
00:04:27.140 But I think, again, Canadians have gotten a little bit too wise to the game that the Liberal government and the media plays.
00:04:33.360 They aren't going to take this stuff seriously anymore.
00:04:35.920 And I think that right now all they can do is just keep trying over and over again.
00:04:40.620 And just wondering, how is Theresa Tam not just retired yet?
00:04:45.220 She has nothing left to offer and someone should fire her, just out of the sense that we spend way too much money on that woman's salary.
00:04:51.720 Like us over here at the National Telegraph, we take pride in the fact that we led to the firing of former AHS CEO, Dr. Verna Yu, because she was costing taxpayers more than $600,000 a year in salary.
00:05:03.640 And I think it's over $750,000 a year when you added in all of her other benefits she got.
00:05:08.360 It's insane that we have government bureaucrats being paid this much.
00:05:11.880 If you are entering the public sector, you are trying to enter a job that pays pretty well, has good benefits, and gives you a decent pension once you've stayed in the position long enough.
00:05:21.680 But these days, we're paying people close to a million dollars a year to be bad at their jobs.
00:05:26.560 Dr. Verna Yu in Alberta was just absolutely struggling to keep Alberta properly stocked up with ICU beds, even though the UCP government under Kenny, to give Kenny some credit, actually gave her enough beds to use.
00:05:38.820 He gave her funding so that she could technically have 1,400 beds running, and she was struggling along with 330 beds.
00:05:45.160 Because in my opinion, I think she was trying to make COVID seem like a bigger issue than it was by artificially restricting the resources AHS was using to combat it to make it seem like we were always in a crisis.
00:05:55.820 Because funny enough, every time we hit about 90% ICU capacity, which is the triage sort of portion, which is like anything past 90%, you start triaging people and only let them have beds that they have a good survival rate.
00:06:07.860 Once we, every time we got to 90%, somehow we found another 50 beds so that the crisis was suddenly averted and everyone give Dr. Verna Yu and some of the AHS bureaucrats a big round of applause.
00:06:18.120 I think that all this stuff needs to definitely be cracked down on if the Conservatives take government.
00:06:24.000 Just gut the bureaucracy of all of these just lifers who have never actually shown any competence in their role.
00:06:30.940 It's not just making paranoid, super strict recommendations does not make you a serious person.
00:06:37.120 If anything, it makes you an unserious person.
00:06:39.340 Anyone can try and make a situation more than it is and stoke fear and paranoia.
00:06:43.900 It's an actual professional that analyzes the situation and gives recommendations that fit the current problem.
00:06:52.240 All the recommendations Teresa Tan gave during COVID were overblown and silly and that proved that she wasn't actually acting as a medical professional.
00:07:01.640 Anyways, that's it for me today.
00:07:03.480 I am very happy to say that I don't think we're ever going to enter the masking era of Canada again.
00:07:08.520 You'll see people on the streets wearing them who are signaling how liberal they are, but I don't think the average person is actually going to get tricked back into a mask this fall.
00:07:16.720 Maybe I'm wrong and you can clip this and show how wrong I am in the future, but hopefully my predictions hold up.
00:07:22.580 Anyways, I have my normal Gifts and Go legal fund donation link in the description of this video.
00:07:27.220 I'm being sued by a Chinese billionaire.
00:07:29.360 I'm currently winning that case, but it's a ridiculous defamation case and he's obviously just, you know, pursuing me in court just to prove how tough of a guy he is.
00:07:36.840 It does help every dollar I get to sort of pay for all these costs I'm incurring.
00:07:41.520 And other than that, I also have the TNT email link in the description of this video.
