The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - More Trudeau Liberal scandals and treason!

00:00:00.000 Welcome back to the Wyatt Claypool Show.

00:00:02.900 Well, we have some more Liberal Party scandals on our hands, some of which include treason.

00:00:09.180 Yay! 0.99

00:00:09.960 Isn't it great that the media destroyed Stephen Harper's conservative government over Mike Duffy having his debts paid off by other conservative politicians?

00:00:19.440 It was literally a non-scandal. 1.00

00:00:21.880 Mike Duffy was a moron. 0.99

00:00:23.300 But we had other conservatives who were paying off the debts that he owed to taxpayers. 1.00

00:00:28.240 So it effectively was a complete moot point.

00:00:31.500 And Duffy had been put on notice.

00:00:33.340 Yet that was the biggest scandal in 2015.

00:00:37.440 And since Justin Trudeau took office in the latter half of 2015, what have we had?

00:00:42.640 Well, you know, just scandals in the realms of literally hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions, when you add all the price tags together.

00:00:52.440 You know, We Charity, S&C Evelyn, Ajakon Island, Trudeau's Jamaica Trips.

00:00:58.920 We have tons of other sole source contract issues.

00:01:01.840 And now we have Randy Boissoneau, who is this very arrogant Liberal MP, the sole Liberal in the city of Edmonton, who has been actively just working in a fraudulent PPE company that he's a 50% stakeholder in, at the same time that he was an elected Liberal MP and minister.

00:01:23.780 But first, before we get into kind of what this scandal is all about, I've given you some indications so far.

00:01:30.120 I want to revisit a brilliant video.

00:01:32.900 A video that he posted trying to mock Conservative MP Leanna Rood for going after Tim Hortons for getting rid of their plastic lids and replacing them with these disgusting paper lids that completely melt as soon as coffee touches them.

00:01:46.440 He posted this incredibly cringe video of him making out with a donut at a Tim Hortons location.

00:01:51.820 Yeah, these are our Liberal MPs, very, very serious people.

00:02:07.960 And to show you how serious they are, they have a dedication to not commit any corruption.

00:02:13.360 And so we're going to dive right into that and see Randy Boissoneau completely fumble all over himself, trying to justify his ownership stake of this company that was effectively meant to just fraudulently exploit the very loose standards on who the government would give money for, for acquiring PPE.

00:02:34.280 All these were like middlemen organizations, they were effectively ordering from Alibaba and taking like quadruple the amounts of their costs in money back from the government.

00:02:44.440 It was insane.

00:02:45.440 But I want to jump over to Michael Cooper, the Conservative MP also out of the city of Edmonton.

00:02:50.800 And I forget what exactly his writing is, but he's been doing a good job covering this issue.

00:02:55.280 And I just wanted to jump into his questioning of Randy because there's been this very funny thing going on with the scandal involving Randy where he claims, because there was this long text chat where one of the people running the company, I think it was, I forget what the company's name is.

00:03:12.180 I'm going to quickly check right here.

00:03:13.320 Yeah, it was like global health import, some generic name.

00:03:16.600 His business partner was texting with somebody from another organization in China that they were buying PPE from.

00:03:23.300 And this is in 2022 after Boissoneau was an MP.

00:03:27.580 He was previously an MP for between 2015 and 2019, but he was reelected after losing in 2019 again in 21.

00:03:34.920 But he was still cutting deals in 2022.

00:03:37.880 And in these text logs, his business partner is referencing, well, I'll have to ask Randy.

00:03:43.320 We'll talk to Randy.

00:03:44.660 Well, Randy's in charge of that.

00:03:46.660 And now Randy Boissoneau's argument or his excuse is that that is a different Randy.

00:03:53.800 This being an organization with effectively no employees, but somehow it was still a different Randy.

00:03:59.820 But they can't find the Randy.

00:04:01.340 They cannot find another last name for this Randy.

00:04:03.400 It is just a phantom Randy.

00:04:05.380 And here is Michael Cooper making this point right here in this clip.

00:04:09.100 I'm probably not going to play too much of this.

00:04:10.580 It's five minutes.

00:04:11.320 We just mostly need to see the start.

00:04:12.680 Minister Boissoneau, you held the title of partner at GHI before you were elected, correct?

00:04:20.700 I recall, I actually can't remember that, but partner was the title that I used while I was operating the company.

00:04:27.800 Thank you, Mr. Cooper.

00:04:28.900 Thank you for confirming that.

00:04:31.620 And just GHI is not exactly a big, big operation.

00:04:39.940 There was you, there was Anderson, and there were a few employees, correct?

00:04:45.080 Correct.

00:04:45.520 And so I posed to you, through you, Mr. Chair, then who was the other Randy?

00:04:52.800 I do not know who the other Randy was.

00:04:54.500 They were somebody hired after I was, but I do not know who that person is, Mr. Chair.

00:04:59.240 No, there was four seconds, four seconds.

00:05:00.360 Mr. Cooper, go ahead.

00:05:01.260 You have a 50% stake in the company.

00:05:06.800 There's only a handful of people there, and you presently have a 50% stake in GHI, and you mean to tell me, but you have no idea out of a handful of people, if not you, who the other Randy is.

00:05:19.700 Are you serious?

00:05:20.740 20 seconds.

00:05:21.480 Go ahead, Minister.

00:05:22.040 I have had no operational involvement in this company since I was elected.

00:05:25.880 The company has hired and probably let go of people.

00:05:28.840 Well, you can claim that, but the problem is we have evidence that his business partners are texting saying this other Randy is involved in approving business decisions.

00:05:39.000 There's no other Randy that they can name that is on any payroll, because if they had another Randy, do you think that Randy Boissoneau would just be saying, I don't know who that is?

00:05:47.740 Obviously, the man would have just come up with some receipt saying, oh, it was Randy Davison.

00:05:54.180 It was Randy Smith.

00:05:55.660 They don't even have a fake Randy that they can slot in, and you can even just tell from his posture in these that he's just not comfortable with answering any of these questions.

00:06:04.940 I don't like to judge people purely on body language alone, but when it's something that should be this easy to answer and you can't answer it and you look this uncomfortable, I'm going to say you might be corrupt.

00:06:20.360 You might have done something wrong, but good thing that we got rid of Mike Duffy, guys.

00:06:26.020 Good thing that Harper got his comeuppance because Mike Duffy was a bad guy.

00:06:30.140 Good thing that we attacked conservatives for buying $20 glasses of orange juice.

00:06:35.060 I know the conservative MP who was involved in that genuinely actually kind of was corrupt, but the scandal that made it break was like a $20 glass of orange juice.

00:06:44.060 You know, if anything, I would still prefer that person have been the MP from Durham because they ended up getting replaced by Aaron O'Toole.

00:06:50.820 Good thing that we also have Jamil Giovanni in that role in Durham.

00:06:54.600 Jamil is actually, this is a very bit of a sidetrack I'm taking.

00:06:58.580 I respect Jamil a lot right now as the MP for Durham because you end up getting a lot of MPs that if you're on the same team, as in you're a conservative, you could be a conservative MLA from BC and you will not criticize a conservative PC MLA from like Newfoundland.

00:07:17.760 It tends to be unheard of.

00:07:18.920 You don't criticize other people.

00:07:20.440 Jamil Giovanni is willing to go after Stephen Lecce, Doug Ford and other hacky non-conservative conservatives out in Ontario.

00:07:27.860 They deserve it and he should be commended for actually doing that.

00:07:32.400 That needs to become more normal that if somebody's not doing their jobs, you call it out and you don't get attacked and you don't get censored, you don't get canceled, you don't get DQ'd for having made basic points on someone's horrible record.

00:07:45.020 But that's a subtle indication of stuff that's been going on in my life here.

00:07:48.360 But I want to pull up another clip here just about Michael Cooper also bringing this up in Parliament and seeing the Liberals team trying to clean up for on Randy's behalf.

00:07:59.260 It's not going very well for them, as you can probably tell so far.

00:08:03.060 But, you know, the Liberals have to have this idea that they can't get rid of any other people at this point.

00:08:09.360 They are so thin in terms of their minority government, they can't afford to say that, yeah, no, Randy's out.

00:08:15.120 And think about all the people that they've gotten rid of, like Kevin Vong in the past, Ram Nish Sangha, other Liberal MPs who were actually decently honorable people.

00:08:25.400 Like, I would never vote for the Liberals.

00:08:26.840 I'd never vote for the NDP.

00:08:28.000 Kevin Vong has easily shown himself as a very honorable man, as an independent MP.

00:08:32.900 I hope that conservatives will invite him into caucus.

00:08:35.400 Ram Nish Sangha was kicked out of the Liberal Party for calling out people who are Calistani terrorist supporters in caucus who identified themselves as Calistanis who were in the cabinet.

00:08:45.780 He himself is a Sikh man, but he called out other extremists.

00:08:50.080 That guy got kicked out for that.

00:08:51.520 You know, Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott, people who I disagree on policy, but they were honorable people.

00:08:56.840 Liberals will not stand up by them, but they'll stand for Randy, who is just so obviously corrupt.

00:09:02.800 This is like graft that you would see in like the 1930s in the United States, like teapot dome type stuff where the government was just selling contracts to its own people in order so that they could get millions of dollars to basically build bridges to nowhere.

00:09:17.040 But here's Michael Cooper holding the Liberals' feet to the fire from Parliament.

00:09:21.120 Mr. Speaker, who's Randy?

00:09:23.740 The Minister of Employment has a 50% stake in a PPE company embroiled in allegations of fraud.

00:09:31.960 Text messages from the COO reveal that a partner named Randy was involved in one of those shady business deals.

00:09:39.960 The Minister assures us it's not him, yet somehow he's unable to identify who the upper Randy is amongst a handful of employees.

00:09:48.520 So again, who's Randy?

00:09:50.580 Here.

00:09:52.040 The Honorable Government House Leader.

00:09:58.680 So of course they actually don't have Randy stand up and answer this because Randy has only done a job equivalent of pouring gasoline over himself.

00:10:06.820 So we get this flunky at coming out.

00:10:08.760 Mr. Speaker, of course, Canada has among the toughest, most stringent ethics and conflict of interest provisions in the world for public office holders.

00:10:19.540 The minister in question appeared yesterday before committee.

00:10:24.060 Here's what I'll say just quickly, not to cut him off too much.

00:10:26.320 I know people sometimes don't like that.

00:10:27.640 We actually do have tough, stringent standards.

00:10:29.440 The problem is, and I had a conversation with someone about this today, it doesn't matter what the laws are, it doesn't matter what different regulations are in place to stop corruption or to stop violations of your freedoms.

00:10:41.300 If they're not enforced, if the people in charge of enforcing themselves are corrupt, it doesn't matter how pure the rules are, they can slow walk it.

00:10:49.520 We have justices on our courts who don't care about the law. 0.90

00:10:53.060 They will read whatever wacky left-wing interpretation into the laws that they can find.

00:10:57.480 They don't care. 0.62

00:10:58.900 And that's the problem, is that when these people, when morons like Steve McKinnon are in charge in government, not that he's in those roles, but people who Steve McKinnon would see as being highly ethical, well, obviously nothing's going to get done because the problem is the people, not the actual system. 0.95

00:11:16.420 Systems only work when there are good people involved. 0.92

00:11:19.080 For one hour and answered all of those questions.

00:11:22.160 The honourable member for St. Albert Edmonton.

00:11:29.240 Mr. Speaker, there is no trace of this Avirandi.

00:11:32.880 Global News can't find him.

00:11:34.940 The COO claims there is this Avirandi, but conveniently has forgotten his last name.

00:11:39.920 And the minister can't identify him among a handful of employees.

00:11:44.240 This is a farce.

00:11:46.920 Everyone knows who Randy is.

00:11:49.260 The local minister just stand up and admit it's him.

00:11:52.380 Here, here.

00:11:52.800 Here, here.

00:11:54.260 The honourable government house leader.

00:11:58.980 Order.

00:12:00.380 Order.

00:12:03.240 Order.

00:12:06.120 Order.

00:12:07.240 The honourable government house leader.

00:12:09.460 I'll remind you, in French, Canada has one of the strict ones.

00:12:16.240 Of course you just answered in French.

00:12:17.720 We don't need to hear that stuff.

00:12:19.420 But yeah, the government's falling apart right now.

00:12:21.720 And this isn't the only scandal, as many of you guys may know.

00:12:24.540 I'm not going to bring in any graphics for this because the current scandal is involving the lack of things to talk about.

00:12:30.740 It's just that they haven't been revealed yet.

00:12:33.080 That there are several MPs in our government who are tied with and work with, pass information to, are effectively moles for foreign regimes. 0.90

00:12:44.000 For different, like, for places like China, places like India, Russia.

00:12:49.380 You will have governments who have basically pawns in our government.

00:12:53.640 Another country that's obvious is Iran.

00:12:56.060 I'll just say which MP we obviously know is the stooge for Iran. 0.68

00:13:00.620 It's Maja Jahari in Richmond Hill.

00:13:03.060 Maja Jahari literally has Iranian parliamentarians go and stay at his house, go meet him at his house when they enter Canada.

00:13:10.640 You'll know that Iran does not actually have, like, an embassy in Canada.

00:13:15.540 They're banned from having an embassy in Canada because it is a terrorist government.

00:13:19.760 And so, what do they do when they come to Canada?

00:13:22.520 Well, they go and stay at good old sweet Maja Jahari's house, a man who always has the mildest things to say when people are being gunned down in the streets of Iran by the Islamist regime out there. 0.94

00:13:33.780 So, yeah, we know some of the people who are obviously involved.

00:13:36.840 Handong is obviously involved with the Chinese government.

00:13:39.560 There's other people who are obviously involved in the global Kalistani movement, the Sikh separatist movement.

00:13:44.720 There's other people who are involved in other organizations.

00:13:47.600 I know there are people like, should I even name her?

00:13:51.400 It doesn't matter.

00:13:52.100 But there's people obviously associated with the Pakistani government that the government does not want to reveal.

00:13:57.340 And there was even Laurel Collins, I believe.

00:14:00.420 It wasn't Laurel Collins.

00:14:01.460 It was another lady from the Liberal Party who basically said boo-hoo too bad when the conservatives asked for these MPs to be unmasked and for them to be able to read the reports. 0.99

00:14:11.180 That is, I'm not sure if anyone even has to be told, the height of arrogance and corruption.

00:14:17.480 When people don't even care about the appearance of ethics, that is when the government has fallen over the side of contempt.

00:14:26.280 The government is fully contemptible at this point.

00:14:28.560 They don't care.

00:14:29.600 You have Jagmeet Singh making a show of it.

00:14:32.080 Why won't the liberals release it?

00:14:34.320 They and the conservatives are hiding whoever might be corrupt inside their parties.

00:14:38.220 It's probably just the liberals.

00:14:40.520 If anything, there's probably people inside the NDP who are also involved.

00:14:44.000 There could be easily conservatives involved too.

00:14:46.440 You know, corruption doesn't know any specific party label.

00:14:49.780 And this is a problem, is that when people could be voting for somebody who is more concerned with the constituents of another country than their own actual constituents, that is obviously corruption.

00:15:02.320 And maybe this is a good time to define corruption.

00:15:05.140 Because I find oftentimes this is where the liberals get away with the idea that we're not corrupt.

00:15:11.020 We haven't been involved in any corruption.

00:15:13.280 Because they haven't had an MP or Justin Trudeau hasn't personally gone to the government treasury, opened the vault door, and stolen $50,000.

00:15:22.740 That's not all what corruption is.

00:15:25.020 Corruption is decisions in government, or at least this is my opinion of what corruption is.

00:15:29.180 In governments and parties, corruption is you making decisions for any reason other than what motive, what you believe is morally right, what your constituents want, and your constituents on all levels.

00:15:41.340 So if you're a local MP, it matters what your local members think, what national members think, what local constituents think, what provincial constituents think in terms of what those in your province want.

00:15:53.080 And then also all of Canadians.

00:15:54.940 If we're not even touching on what people in those areas care about, that's a problem.

00:16:00.780 If you're the minister of agriculture, obviously farmers now become part of your constituent.

00:16:05.700 That's a main constituent you are trying to serve.

00:16:07.800 Even if you are technically serving farmers, if you start handing out subsidies, if it's hurting the rest of the country, and there's no justifiable reason to do it, that is a form of corruption.

00:16:17.920 You are trying to buy votes.

00:16:19.020 You are trying to swing favor.

00:16:20.420 So there's a lot of things that happen to our government every day.

00:16:22.940 That's just considered policy.

00:16:24.580 But it's obviously corruption.

00:16:26.560 It's obviously the government doing something because they're trying to win a constituency of voters for illegitimate and immoral reasons.

00:16:33.280 It's not because they genuinely think this program is the best thing for them, and it's also going to benefit the rest of the country, or at least the cost of it on the rest of taxpayers is outweighed by the amount of benefit that those individuals get.

00:16:45.340 We are well past that in our government right now.

00:16:48.160 Every decision the liberals make hurts Canadians for the benefit of a very small constituency, sometimes who don't even live in the country.

00:16:57.020 You have MPs in the Liberal Party who openly stump for Pakistan, taking over all of Kashmir.

00:17:05.520 Kashmir, which on the Pakistani side of the border, has had all of the Sikh and Hindu and Christian elements completely eliminated.

00:17:13.320 The side that's still on the Indian border, there are Sikhs, there are Hindus, there are Muslims, everybody lives there.

00:17:20.400 But if you go on to the Pakistan side, it's only Muslims. 0.86

00:17:22.900 And there are MPs in the Liberal government who stump for Pakistan's right to take over the rest of that province.

00:17:30.520 It's also no, like, so, that's insane.

00:17:33.760 I don't know if I even have to highlight that too much more. 0.61

00:17:37.120 That's ridiculous that there are people like that who are able to occupy seats of power.

00:17:41.740 That's when somebody actually needs to come in and start making arrests. 0.77

00:17:45.100 When somebody is taking marching orders from a government building that is not on our soil, or somebody who covers up crimes, or somebody who is taking money in order to stump for their position.

00:17:58.200 This happens way more than people think in Canada.

00:18:01.320 Canadian politics, like, mark my words, Canadian politics, people always see American politics as corrupt.

00:18:07.260 Probably because there's a lot of drama, television, movies made around it.

00:18:11.920 You know, we know about, you know, corrupt figures like Richard Nixon and people from the past who are just openly stealing money.

00:18:19.280 You know, Bob Menendez, I believe, the senator from New Jersey, who's being indicted potentially for just flat out having gold bars of stolen government funds in his house.

00:18:30.740 Like, he just is basically laundering money off the books that he has basically been taking through corrupt, like, graft deals.

00:18:39.080 That's insane.

00:18:40.200 But in Canada, you, I think, per capita, pound for pound, Canadian politics is far more corrupt than American.

00:18:46.920 In America, you actually have the right to run.

00:18:49.280 In Canada, unless you're running just as an independent, you're not going to win.

00:18:52.540 The parties have the right to just kick you out.

00:18:54.700 And you could be literally running for the right reasons.

00:18:56.680 Everybody liked you, but you weren't compliant enough, you weren't corrupt enough effectively in order to get involved because they thought you would blow the whistle on something.

00:19:05.340 That happens all the time in Canada.

00:19:07.560 The thing is that in Canada, we also have an extremely high trust society.

00:19:13.160 People don't really have a lot of skepticism around politicians.

00:19:16.160 People don't like politicians in Canada, but people also don't have the feeling that these people are up to something.

00:19:22.560 They're not doing their jobs right.

00:19:23.820 I don't trust them.

00:19:24.600 Americans have far less trust in public officials, so they demand more accountability.

00:19:29.200 I think COVID proved that between at least the vast majority of U.S. states and Canada, that Canadians were way more willing to go along with stuff that was just obviously unethical, unconstitutional, immoral.

00:19:44.560 Whereas in the U.S., there was far more pushback.

00:19:46.780 There was far more people who lost their jobs for doing that.

00:19:49.260 Whereas there's a lot of people in Canada who have effectively been rewarded through COVID, still allowed to run for office, never held to account by their parties or by voters, because people don't really like to get involved like that in Canada.

00:20:02.400 It feels icky.

00:20:03.520 It feels too hot-blooded.

00:20:05.220 Our politics is low-key, and that can sometimes be a problem.

00:20:09.600 The places where people make the least amount of noise, you can get away with the most amount of corruption.

00:20:14.920 The Soviet Union became more corrupt, the more compliant the Soviet, like the people, the Russian people and other people captured by the Soviet Union became. 0.62

00:20:23.120 There was less corruption, actually, generally when all the chaotic killing was going on, because that was at a time when there was actual fights back and forth with people stealing money and doing stuff.

00:20:33.720 It was usually once they had suppressed people into a docile state that they were then able to raid the piggy bank of the country.

00:20:42.580 Anyways, that was a little bit of a mini rant, but I'm going to kind of move on to some other stuff I wanted to talk about.

00:20:49.200 There are some other fun things going on this week when it came to Canadian politics, and we have been given a great little thing to talk about right here with Laurel Collins, the NDP MP, going on another rant about climate change because she didn't embarrass herself enough the first time.

00:21:07.720 So here's her talking about how we need to, I don't know, give in to the UN on how we end up regulating our environment, because, of course, the NDP doesn't actually care about Canada.

00:21:18.420 They care about what international bigwigs think about what Canada is doing.

00:21:22.880 We've seen 12 straight months of record-breaking temperatures, more extreme wildfires, more extreme weather events.

00:21:30.420 This is a climate crisis.

00:21:32.160 The Liberals have been asleep at the wheel, letting oil and gas CEOs pollute more and more each year, and the Conservatives can't even agree if climate change is real.

00:21:42.180 The UN Secretary General is calling for a windfall tax on oil and gas profits to help fund climate action.

00:21:49.520 New Democrats agree.

00:21:51.020 But why are the Liberals letting big oil rip off Canadians and destroy our climate?

00:21:56.500 Rip off Canadians, I'm sorry, but our standard of living, other than the fact that Trudeau has been taxing us to death, but in terms of the 21st century, our standard of living has gotten better with cheaper fuel.

00:22:08.900 And the idea that the oil and gas companies are allowed to pollute more every year, can she define more?

00:22:14.740 Because our actual per capita emissions have been falling over time.

00:22:18.760 Technology becomes more efficient.

00:22:20.620 Extraction and refinement becomes more efficient.

00:22:22.700 Really, she just like, in her video where she was crying about how climate change affects women, or whatever she was on about, it was embarrassing, that she just doesn't want any emissions at all, and is willing for effectively all oil to be banned.

00:22:37.440 Windfall taxes, which is what the UN Secretary General Chair, or I don't care, is calling for, that was effectively trying to take any profits that the oil and gas companies are making.

00:22:49.300 Any windfall profits mean like, oh, if they've profited any more than they did last year, we should be taxing all of that.

00:22:55.600 That's insane, especially because companies expand over time.

00:22:59.060 Also, inflation happens.

00:23:00.500 So that's also why revenues are up, because there's just generally more dollars floating around the economy, dollars that aren't worth as much as they used to be.

00:23:08.880 So all of this is just commie nonsense.

00:23:11.800 But I want to go back to the very start of that, just because of how hysterical that is, her trying to pretend also like any amount of extreme weather events, quote unquote, any year, that means more climate action is needed.

00:23:23.200 We've seen 12 straight months of record-breaking temperatures, more extreme wildfires, more extreme weather.

00:23:30.160 Can she define extreme wildfires?

00:23:32.160 I challenge Laurel Collins to define extreme wildfires.

00:23:36.280 Our wildfire season right now is actually pretty mild.

00:23:39.960 Yeah, we had some fires that were actually from last year that were still burning.

00:23:43.940 It's strange to say, but fires will burn underground and stay heated, and then they will continue after the winter.

00:23:50.680 But we are not actually experiencing very many fires at all.

00:23:54.220 If you look at Alberta, where all the fire hysteria was taking place, there's only, I think, one fire that, as of a few weeks ago, that was not in control.

00:24:03.320 Every single fire is in control.

00:24:04.660 They are all contained.

00:24:06.960 So what are we talking about?

00:24:08.620 Are we going to live in a world, in her mind, if we tax carbon enough or we just defund oil, we ban oil, where there's no such thing as fires, no such thing as tornadoes, no such thing as extreme weather events?

00:24:19.800 I'll note that in 1825, 1825, a little bit of a while ago, one-sixth of the entire landmass, not mass, but I guess land area, in New Brunswick burnt to the ground.

00:24:34.400 One-sixth of it.

00:24:35.300 That's not counting one-sixth of the forest.

00:24:37.100 That's of the entire boundaries of, like, all the entire thing of New Brunswick.

00:24:42.840 I think it's like 17, like, whatever percentage one-sixth is.

00:24:46.500 But one-sixth of the entire landmass burnt.

00:24:50.200 That was before the big industrial revolution in, like, the United States and Canada.

00:24:56.360 So what did that happen?

00:24:57.640 How did that happen?

00:24:58.920 How do we have larger wildfires 40 years ago in individual provinces than we do today?

00:25:04.940 It's because wildfires happen.

00:25:06.760 Big wildfires happen.

00:25:07.800 And the idea that somehow turning off, not using your car is going to solve anything is wacky nonsense.

00:25:13.880 The NDP just doesn't actually have any real issues to whine about.

00:25:17.780 They're not willing to really call out Liberal Party corruption.

00:25:20.900 They're not, they like high taxes, so they won't call out the tax regime in this country.

00:25:24.980 They won't call out any of the crazy waste of money.

00:25:28.480 They like the government spending more money.

00:25:29.920 And so they've occupied themselves with abstract issues like climate change that they can then use to try and pretend that they really care about the real moral issues of the day when Laurel Collins is completely out to lunch.

00:25:42.880 The last thing I want to talk about today, I think I can just bring this up on screen rather than having to share screen here, is something concerning out of the province of Alberta.

00:25:52.600 I know a lot of people like Premier Daniel Smith, but this is a move that makes me have to criticize her.

00:25:59.020 So we were supposed to be done with all the corrupt PC politicians, but for some reason, we now have former Premier Alison Redford appointed to the Alberta Corporate Board, the Invest Alberta Corporate Board.

00:26:14.020 Why?

00:26:15.000 Why do Albertan taxpayers owe Redford anything?

00:26:19.080 She frankly owes us.

00:26:20.420 The amount of corruption and misuse of money under her PC government that she never even finished the term of, she was so bad.

00:26:27.620 Why are we now rewarding her by putting her into place?

00:26:31.580 I just got off the phone with somebody when I had heard this news yesterday, and I said that in Premier Daniel Smith's heart lies a barometer.

00:26:40.840 That barometer goes back and forth between Premier Ralph Klein and Alison Redford.

00:26:47.040 Daniel Smith wants to, in her heart, be like Ralph Klein.

00:26:51.140 But around every corner, I found that she acts far more like Alison Redford than anyone probably wants to admit.

00:26:58.000 And hopefully, because we're still in the first year of this government, they need to, or we just got past the first year of the government, they really need to just button down and act like Ralph Klein.

00:27:09.100 They need to actually start cutting spending.

00:27:10.900 Our budget is 20% higher right now in Alberta than any budget that Ralph, that, sorry, Jason Kenney passed.

00:27:17.360 It's higher than Jason Kenney's budget.

00:27:18.960 By 20%, that's crazy.

00:27:20.800 So we need to cut spending in all these wasteful areas of government. 0.97

00:27:23.900 We have to cancel boondoggle projects with this stupid rail line between Calgary and Edmonton that nobody's really going to be using. 0.93

00:27:32.940 We're driving cities. 0.96

00:27:34.040 Even if you get to Edmonton or Calgary on the rail line, you're going to need a car once you get there.

00:27:39.400 This is not exactly super accessible cities for walking.

00:27:42.900 Well, we've not lowered taxes.

00:27:46.680 We have a surplus in our budget, yet we don't lower the gas tax.

00:27:50.660 There's a lot of areas here where Ralph Klein would not really see this as a government in his own making.

00:27:55.660 So this Alison Redford story is making me have to call out the fact that we need more politicians in Alberta. 0.98

00:28:04.080 We need more MLAs in Smith's government to push her to actually do the things that people want her to do. 1.00

00:28:10.000 I've heard that she actually might pull back on her parental rights promises, that they might water down the parental rights legislation so much and then, you know, peg it to international standards so that they'll basically be useless. 1.00

00:28:22.420 I was at a fundraiser event with her last Friday where Premier Smith said that she's no longer going to be pursuing the Alberta pension plan.

00:28:31.560 I wasn't that, like, jazzed about the Alberta pension plan.

00:28:34.240 It's just not a policy I care about a lot.

00:28:36.120 There's a lot of people who do care, and she's saying that she's not going to have a referendum vote on it anymore.

00:28:40.480 There are so many people out there who believe that she is going to do it, and in groups of large donors, she'll say, well, no, we're not doing it anymore.

00:28:47.480 That's disgusting to me, that you would run on all these promises of sovereignty, and then you only really fulfill the easy ones, and then you kind of get back to business as usual of not checking who you're giving these bloated contracts to.

00:29:02.280 Power bills have not gone down.

00:29:03.800 We need coal back on the grid.

00:29:05.520 We need to just not just put a moratorium on new green electric power in Alberta.

00:29:10.060 We need to cancel these green contracts. 0.97

00:29:13.140 They were fraudulent.

00:29:14.400 They were obviously overpaying green companies for energy, and so we should at least pay them out to end the contracts early.

00:29:21.140 But, you know, what do I know?

00:29:23.180 Well, that should be it for me today, guys.

00:29:25.160 We're at the 30-minute mark of the show.

00:29:27.220 Let me know if you guys want me to talk about different topics in the future, what things interest you guys.

00:29:32.460 This was kind of – I hadn't made a video in a few days, so there was a lot I wanted to talk about,

00:29:36.720 but also it's sort of difficult to get to every topic and be able to talk about it in a fulsome manner.

00:29:42.180 But give me your suggestions in the comments below.

00:29:55.560 We're being sued by a billionaire developer for defamation that he hasn't been able to provide a shred of evidence for in over two and a half years of this case going on.

00:30:04.480 Anyways, that should be it for me today, guys.

00:30:06.720 Have a good one.
