00:16:22.440They were polite, but they certainly made a point
00:16:24.520of keeping Klaus's distance from that reporter.
00:16:27.500but still the you see this is where we have to start understanding how much of an impact
00:16:35.740we as independent journalists and independent thinkers critical thinkers how much of an impact
00:16:42.460we're making on on the attitude worldwide of the people 2023 i believe is the year of the great
00:16:52.100awakening and i'm not talking about that in any religious sense i have never seen more people in
00:16:58.260my life who are now aware of what is actually going on around them yes there are still many
00:17:05.340millions who are asleep at the wheel but i have never seen anything like this before you know
00:17:11.320what's interesting mark friesen the grizzly patriot i played a video of his on the show last
00:17:16.460night and he's a friend of the show he's a friend of freedom he's a good guy and i respect mark i
00:17:21.120don't always agree with mark but i respect mark and he was doing a tour with laurel and tyler
00:17:27.160thompson that came through winnipeg and all across canada um back in august i think it was at the
00:17:33.520park west inn out in charleswood and mark came on and the room was packed i'm going to say there was
00:17:40.540about 400 people there listening to what he had to say about the globalists and he's absolutely
00:17:45.540right when he says the things he says. He said, I've been doing this for 20 years. I've known
00:17:51.880about this for 20 years. And now here it is coming down on us. And if I did this two or three,
00:17:57.280four years ago, I would have had maybe a dozen people in here. And now there are 400 and probably
00:18:03.940a whole bunch of people outside. And he was right about this, wanting to get in, but there wasn't
00:18:08.240room. The room was beyond capacity at that point. So next time those two come through, there's going
00:18:12.660to have to be a bigger room people are awake and aware of what's going on a lot of us are
00:18:21.080so don't go and i know that you're going to be going shadow come on i still can't wake up my
00:18:26.800family some people are going to take longer some people never never will wake up and these are the
00:18:31.980people who will sleepwalk into the matrix system get the chip in their hand or their wrist or their
00:18:36.600face or their ear or whatever and go ahead it's so easy to pay for this oh i can get into my
00:18:41.820apartment building so much easier now oh i don't have to pay a mortgage the government's going to
00:18:45.800do it for me that's awesome there's going to be there's going to be people like that and i feel
00:18:51.920bad for them but in the meantime the rest of us are trying to figure out what to do to stop it
00:18:56.340and i don't know if it can be stopped it can be slowed down so that we have time to build
00:19:01.740a parallel economy a parallel society dan bongino talks about this a lot you've heard me talk about
00:19:08.760this a lot all of the wayne peters from you know what's up canada he talks about it a lot
00:19:13.880doug force from the myth is canada has talked about it on this very show yes we do have to
00:19:19.640start building a parallel economy a parallel society almost and it's going to be interesting
00:19:24.760because it's not going to be societies living side by side um it may wind up that way in the future
00:19:31.900because of these smart cities and all of these electronic boundaries that are going to be
00:19:37.060surrounding these areas inside of cities that you can't leave unless you get a permit from the
00:19:41.940government for 100 days a year like is what's going to happen in the UK in 2024 I think it is1.00
00:19:49.700but until then we're going to be living next to each other so the people who are chipped0.98
00:19:55.680the next door neighbor maybe in the future our society will be outside of the cities
00:20:05.040and they will be in the cities i've been thinking about that quite a bit over the past couple of
00:20:11.760years and i'm thinking how is this going to shake out how is this going to actually look
00:20:16.080in 2025 because guys remember it's agenda 2030 we're talking about we're not far off from that
00:20:23.260now it's 2023 another new year is upon us here seven years away what were you doing in 2016
00:20:29.780that just seems like yesterday doesn't it okay let's get back to the uh the world economic forum
00:20:37.300here and this story comes from tnc.news day two at the world economic forum how influential is
00:20:43.920the wef anyway who wrote this was this andrew yes it was andrew lotten who is over there covering
00:20:50.540it right now corporations are paying thousands of dollars to attend the world economic forum
00:20:56.120annual meeting this year. Meanwhile, politicians are able to attend the summit for free.
00:21:01.160Despite Klaus Schwab's denial that the World Economic Forum has any influence on politicians,
00:21:06.580the annual event certainly seems like a cash-for-access event. As Andrew Lawton reports,
00:21:12.940the policies being promoted at the World Economic Forum are being adopted by governments around the
00:21:17.520world, including the promotion of a carbon tax. On day two of True North's coverage of the World
00:21:23.880economic forum annual meeting andrew attempted to question schwab caught up with the prime
00:21:28.280minister of luxembourg xavier battell and much more should we have a look at this and see what
00:21:32.520he airs day two world economic forum 2023 annual meeting here in davos and obviously this was the
00:21:39.020first main day of the substantive policy oriented sessions between media leaders political leaders
00:21:44.900and also business leaders all of whom converge for what the world economic forum says is an
00:21:50.200exchange of ideas. It raises the question of just how influential the WEF is. There are people on
00:21:56.120one end of the spectrum that think it's this shadowy cabal of puppeteers controlling everything
00:22:00.000that happens in the world. And on the other end, you have people that are very dismissive of it
00:22:03.840all that say it's just a glorified sales conference where it's all talk and no action. Like anything,
00:22:09.560the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. But one of the things worth noting is that some
00:22:14.600Some of the members of the WEF pay up to $650,000 a year just to be members of the organization.
00:22:22.740Coming to Davos costs even more money.
00:22:24.920Bill Browder, the anti-Putin activist and financier, said that the price tag for him to come this year was going to be $250,000.
00:22:33.120Now, politicians come for free, which begs the question of what it is that business leaders see value in when they pony over almost $1 million to be here.
00:22:43.600Is it just cash for access to politicians?
00:22:46.840What is it that ordinary people around the world are getting out of this?
00:22:50.320Some of the policy ideas that were put forward on day one are some things that politicians around the world have been all too eager to implement.
00:22:57.960For example, Oxford University professor Naguera-Woods advocated for a global carbon price, but a real one that's going to show businesses they have nowhere to hide.
00:23:06.940So what is really required now on the energy transition?
00:23:11.500And the thing that's missing is clear, permanent government goalposts. The one minimum thing that governments need to do, whether it's the Chinese government, the European Union government, African governments or the American government, and that's to set the rules that create an ecosystem for every company in the world to then make excellent decisions on the energy transition.
00:23:35.540You know, first, obviously, a carbon price, not a pretend price, but a real carbon price that companies can know is not going to change.
00:23:47.300Companies need to know that the goalposts won't shift every year or every three years or every election cycle.
00:23:53.400So I think that's the one thing about the energy transition that we now absolutely have to set our minds to.
00:23:59.000We shouldn't let it become a partisan football.
00:24:01.540football. Interestingly enough, I ran into Klaus Schwab himself, the founder and chairman of the
00:24:06.660World Economic Forum, and he was speaking to another journalist at the time and said that
00:24:10.860he's actually never said anything to persuade politicians. I'm very often expressing myself,
00:24:16.940except now I have to explain why we have chosen to see, but you never have heard from me political
00:24:23.700statements or economic statements, which are, let's say, in any way influencing political
00:24:34.220personalities. I tried to ask a follow-up question, but he very quickly went into the speaker's room
00:24:39.720and said he had somewhere else he had to be. But if it's true that Klaus Schwab and the World
00:24:44.140Economic Forum are not here to influence politicians, what's the point? Moreover,
00:24:48.240how do we explain this comment of Mr. Schwab's about penetrating cabinets, including in Canada?
00:24:53.700But what we are very proud of now is the young generation,
00:24:59.400like Prime Minister Trudeau, President of Argentina and so on,
