00:00:26.820 zone here on the red apple audio networks first of all i want to thank the many listeners for their

00:00:33.480 emails their their text messages their phone calls uh wishing me a speedy recovery from

00:00:40.440 laryngitis because well roger stone who can't talk is like uc and bolt or roger banister who can't

00:00:47.920 run so i am so glad to be back in the zone with you there's so much breaking news remember new york

00:00:55.980 democrat attorney general latisha tish james she's the one who used a new york state law that has 1.00

00:01:04.180 never been used before to charge president donald trump with inflating the value of his assets in

00:01:12.680 order to obtain commercial loans for his real estate projects every penny was of course paid back on time

00:01:23.160 in some cases early and the banks that loaned him the money made 40 million dollars in interest

00:01:31.600 every one of them said they would be pleased to do business with the trump organization yet again

00:01:37.800 this was part of the tsunami of lawfare part and parcel of the same operation that

00:01:44.820 made a change in new york state law to extend the statute of limitations for sexual assault so that e

00:01:54.380 jean carroll could file a lawsuit claiming she had been sexually assaulted by trump over 30 years ago 1.00

00:02:03.380 when the democrats and legislature made that minor amendment little did they know that they would

00:02:10.820 catch uh andrew cuomo and mayor eric adams in similar sexual assault lawsuits anyway uh latisha james was 1.00

00:02:20.380 speaking yesterday to reverend al sharpton's national action network convention and she says she's going

00:02:29.100 after donald trump let's take a listen

00:02:31.660 let's go

00:02:45.660 now if you could make that out uh latisha james said i ain't afraid of no president donald trump why she

00:03:07.660 chooses to talk like a ghetto rat i don't know she has a fine education and a law degree i guess that 0.92

00:03:17.400 is to appeal to the rabble but i would say that she should be more concerned with herself we learned 0.99

00:03:25.420 only yesterday due to the great reporting by sam antar at whitecollarfraud.com that latisha james who

00:03:34.000 built her career allegedly on exposing deception uh has a real estate transaction in norwalk norfolk

00:03:42.540 virginia which actually happened just weeks before the trump fraud trial she championed opened

00:03:49.820 that raises serious questions about her own compliance with new york state law a declaration

00:03:56.300 buried in legal filing states her intent to make her virginia home her principal residence

00:04:03.620 she writes i hereby declare that i intend to occupy this property as my political

00:04:10.160 principal residence close quote those awards appear in black and white in a specific power of attorney

00:04:18.400 signed by james and filed in norfolk virginia on august 17th 2023 authorizing one of her relatives to

00:04:26.160 act on her behalf in a transaction that included that very declaration now those were not the words

00:04:32.680 written by a lawyer acting in james behalf they're her own words that is as my friend sam antar points

00:04:40.760 out her intent it is most definitely her signature this is a smoking gun on its own completely separate

00:04:49.400 from how the mortgage might be interpreted because it stands as a clear declaration of intent from a

00:04:56.500 sitting new york state attorney general to establish principal residence in another state the 219 000

00:05:06.040 mortgage requires occupancy within 60 days not possible of course because she was in the new york courts daily

00:05:14.140 during that time under new york state law moving out of state uh on a uh a technical basis in other words

00:05:22.440 moving your principal residency creates an automatic vacancy in the office you hold

00:05:29.560 uh the property and the mortgage in question well they're missing from latisha james official disclosures

00:05:37.300 uh this was not some boilerplate language that she inadvertently signed it is a standalone legal

00:05:44.740 declaration uh this is but one of the problems that i think the attorney general faces the other one frankly is the habitual

00:05:55.940 use of state and campaign resources for her personal use uh is it a coincidental that on the same date that she

00:06:06.700 spends eight thousand plus dollars using a state airplane to fly to martha's vineyard her campaign pays 1.00

00:06:16.860 a two thousand dollar cost for the rental of a beachfront rental uh there's that is just one of

00:06:24.940 uh several flights that seem to coincide either with campaign uh business or her personal business that by the way is

00:06:34.860 a federal income tax violation if there was personal benefit to her so if i were attorney james james i would

00:06:44.780 not be worried about no president donald trump i'd be worried about myself because federal and state

00:06:52.220 officials are sure to look at all of this meanwhile it turns out that the chief justice of the u.s supreme

00:07:01.020 court has a secret friendship with the chief architect of donald trump's uh tsunami of lawfare one norm eisen

00:07:10.860 uh i guess we finally know why jester roberts acts the way he does it turns out that he's a very good

00:07:17.020 friend with one of the biggest deep state operatives on the planet a man literally known as the architect

00:07:24.060 of the russian collusion hoax the architect of the uh ukrainian impeachment hoax uh the architect of the uh

00:07:35.420 of the january 6 uh uh phenomena uh an architect of the multiple prosecutions of donald trump uh in new york

00:07:45.500 all of which are legally flawed norm eisen admitted that he and chief justice john roberts spent a week

00:07:53.500 together in the czech republic working on quote america rule of law close quote issues what could

00:08:01.660 that possibly mean eisen claimed that roberts isn't corrupt he's just a close friend who happened to fly

00:08:08.620 overseas and stay at eisen's posh 150 room palace to corroborate collaborate on transatlantic political

00:08:19.340 projects this was not just some casual meetup this was a week-long stay at eisen's home in europe and

00:08:29.020 this is while roberts was serving as chief justice of the supreme court so we're talking about a so-called

00:08:36.380 rule of law collaboration from the same man who's made his mission to sabotage donald trump and bury

00:08:43.100 the america first movement in lawsuits and lawfare uh eisen most definitely has a hand in the recent

00:08:51.100 unconstitutional ruling in which judge jed bozberg uh has ruled that donald trump does not have the

00:08:59.020 authority to deport violent extremists and criminals from the united states uh how coincidental that judge

00:09:08.300 bosberg and judge amy berman jackson that's the judge who uh sat over my case and withheld exculpatory

00:09:17.180 evidence from my defense attorneys uh that proved beyond a shadow of doubt that there was no russian

00:09:23.660 collusion no wikileaks collaboration or any other crime on my part my lawyers filed a motion with the

00:09:32.060 judge to see robert muller's entire unredacted final report the judge denied it and said that

00:09:40.380 she would personally review the report and give any segments relevant to my defense to my defense

00:09:47.740 attorneys she failed to include in that a section that we learned about only through a lawsuit by

00:09:55.260 buzzfeed in which even robert muller could not sugarcoat the fact that he had found no evidence of

00:10:01.500 russian collusion wikileaks collaboration uh or any other crime on my part in fact he admitted that if

00:10:08.700 he had found uh that i had received anything from wikileaks which he didn't uh that it would not have

00:10:15.420 been a crime under the first amendment by the way don't look for that in the new york times or the

00:10:21.180 washington post or the wall street journal uh the department of justice decided to release that stunning

00:10:27.900 information uh at midnight on election day of 2020 in other words the busiest media day of the year

00:10:35.980 to ensure that it received no coverage whatsoever uh interestingly enough uh eisen also admitted

00:10:44.460 recently that uh judge roberts and justice amy coney barrett are so anti-trump that they are completely

00:10:51.980 compromised now i believe even though i'm not an attorney that this is a massive conflict of

00:10:58.460 interest justice roberts has no business presiding over any of the cases that eisen uh and his ilk

00:11:06.780 of lawfare activists are funneling through the courts eisen is tied up so many of these weaponized

00:11:13.580 cases that are aimed at thwarting the will of the american people uh and bringing about the change

00:11:21.100 that we voted for uh as senator ted cruz pointed out in the senate hearing the day before yesterday

00:11:29.260 what they do is they go forum shopping they find a particularly loony left-wing judge in any jurisdiction

00:11:38.540 across the country to get a ruling that is nationwide so they have a federal judge bozberg who by the way

00:11:49.580 with judge uh amy berman jackson showed up not wearing their robes of course to sit in the audience for

00:11:56.940 jack smith's indictment of donald trump in a case that was later dropped uh they find a judge who issues

00:12:05.500 a ruling that covers the entire country so they have federal judges who have ruled that trump doesn't

00:12:12.700 have the authority to close down the department of education which of course he does they have

00:12:17.820 found another judge who say that trump does not have the authority to lay off federal employees

00:12:23.660 which of course he does they have found yet another judge to rule that trump cannot as i say deport

00:12:32.140 dangerous illegal violent criminals and terrorists uh where will this all go well it should go to the

00:12:40.300 u.s supreme court uh but these new revelations about robert's conflict of interest uh are deeply troubling

00:12:50.620 now the the judiciary does have wide authority back in 1802 uh president thomas jefferson elected to

00:12:59.420 ignore the federal courts uh and the while the republic is still here i think that the president should

00:13:07.420 listen to a three judge appeals panel in a federal ruling but these random judges trying to undo the

00:13:14.380 will of the american people is judicial tyranny uh and my friends it will not stand president trump has

00:13:22.060 appealed directly to the u.s supreme court but judge john roberts cannot sit in judgment on that matter

00:13:29.900 because as i have just demonstrated he is hopelessly conflicted you won't hear this news anyplace else

00:13:36.860 but right here in the stone zone and right here on the red apple audio networks we'll be back with

00:13:43.580 more breaking of political news so whatever you do don't touch that dial because here you get the stone

00:13:51.420 cold truth and plenty of it this shrimp and coconut sauce is divine what's your secret goya coconut milk how

00:13:59.340 does it taste so good it's all in that real coconut flavor and that rich creamy texture what about

00:14:05.100 thickeners and added sugars none just smooth coconutty goodness what can i make with it from curries to

00:14:11.900 sweet treats like coconut flan the possibilities are endless goya coconut milk take your cooking to the

00:14:18.460 next level no question about it find it in the goya section of your local grocery store if it's goya it has

00:14:23.740 to be good this is the stone zone with roger stone the stone zone

00:14:31.340 this is the stone zone with roger stone they went after a guy named roger stone who's sitting in the

00:14:52.140 office and i'll say this in front of roger he's no baby and right now he's cleaner than anybody in this

00:14:57.580 place now as i treated him very unfairly now get in the zone it's the stone zone here's roger stone

00:15:09.420 well little laura loomer the investigative journalist and long-time friend of mine

00:15:17.260 was certainly in the news yesterday now loomer tells people that i am her mentor and that may be true

00:15:24.620 she was one of my strongest and most vocal supporters when my family and i were virtually

00:15:29.900 destroyed in the russian collusion hoax uh and i value loyalty if you're not loyal what do you have

00:15:38.060 does that mean i agree with everything laura loomer says and does most certainly not and i'm sure

00:15:43.180 she doesn't agree with everything i say and do but in this case they're upset because laura loomer

00:15:48.620 went to the president got a meeting with him he invited her by the way for those in the fake 0.99

00:15:53.820 news media who are flipping out uh and heard her out regarding certain officials uh in his

00:16:01.100 administration shortly after his meeting three members of the national security council staff

00:16:09.100 were fired the president says that his meeting with loomer did not affect his decision-making process

00:16:18.140 he said laura loomer is a very good patriot and a strong person i saw her yesterday for a little while

00:16:22.860 she makes recommendations of things and people and sometimes i listen to those recommendations

00:16:26.940 trump said did she have anything to do with the nsc aids that were asked to the president abruptly

00:16:32.780 responded no uh interestingly enough i think uh the individual the number two person in the national

00:16:41.180 security advisors alex wong if one will look at his background uh he is a bidenite his wife was a

00:16:47.900 u.s attorney under biden uh there's nothing america first about him he is kind of the first major

00:16:56.140 official that loomer identified as being a trump hater within the national security council team he's

00:17:04.380 still there the mainstream media is going absolutely ballistic with the allegations that loomer's responsible

00:17:11.500 for helping expel three members of trump's national security team suspecting of having pro-war foreign

00:17:18.700 policy agendas uh this uh is uh will be of course contradictory to president trump's pro-peace

00:17:26.460 position loomer went to the white house on wednesday entered the west wing spoke with the president

00:17:31.020 about several nsc staffers according to the new york times miss loomer walked into the white house 0.95

00:17:36.380 with the chief of papers two of the people said she proceeded to excoriate them in front of her 0.98

00:17:41.260 their boss and national security advisor mike waltz so uh you can say anything you want about laura loomer

00:17:49.340 she is the hardest working investigative journalist in the country uh and uh she's often right and in

00:17:56.300 this case she is absolutely right we saw the first trump administration agenda being diluted

00:18:04.700 delayed and derailed by some inside the fort that cannot happen again and thanks to laura loomer i

00:18:13.340 don't think it's going to when we come back we're going to go to our northern border and talk about the

00:18:19.580 election in canada and who will succeed justin trudeau you're in the right place it's the stone

00:18:27.020 zone the place for politics here on the red apple audio networks

00:18:41.100 this is the stone zone with roger stone they went after a guy named roger stone who's sitting in the

00:18:47.900 office and i'll say this in front of roger he's no baby and right now he's cleaner than anybody in this

00:18:53.260 place now as i treated him very unfairly now get him his own it's the stone zone here's roger stone

00:19:04.220 welcome back into the stone zone the canadian federal election is scheduled for monday april 28th

00:19:11.820 this date was set after prime minister mark carney who became prime minister upon the resignation of

00:19:19.180 justin trudeau advised the governor general to dissolve parliament on march 23rd 2025 triggering a 36 day

00:19:28.300 campaign period joining me now is stockwell day stockwell day has a long career in the forefront of

00:19:37.980 public policy development at the federal provincial and municipal levels of government uh he served as

00:19:45.180 as a member of the alberta legislature a member of the canadian parliament a high profile provincial

00:19:51.900 and federal cabinet minister and as canada's a leader of her majesty's official opposition team

00:20:00.060 at every stage he's worked tirelessly to advocate for canadians and for freedom i had the uh the blessed

00:20:06.860 opportunity to actually meet him in church uh and i'm delighted that he agreed to join us today uh stockwell

00:20:13.980 welcome to the stone zone thank you roger good to be with you uh i i'm a great admirer of pierre paliev

00:20:22.300 the uh leader of the conservative party of canada the head of the official opposition uh and i have to

00:20:29.180 play this short clip of him schooling a member of the fake news media on the on the topic i mean in terms of

00:20:38.060 your sort of strategy currently you're obviously taking the populist uh pathway um what does that

00:20:44.460 mean well appealing appealing to people's uh more emotional levels i would guess um i mean certainly

00:20:52.540 certainly certainly you certainly you tap certainly you tap uh very strong ideological language quite

00:20:57.820 frequently like what uh left wing you know this and that right wing you know i mean it's that that

00:21:05.020 type of ideological i never really talk about left or right anyways a lot of people i don't really

00:21:08.780 believe in that okay a lot of people would would say that you're simply taking a page out of the

00:21:14.300 donald trump uh like which people would say that well i'm sure a great many canadians but like who

00:21:23.020 i don't know who but well you're the one who asked the question so yeah you must know somebody

00:21:27.980 okay i'm sure there's some out there but anyways the point of this the point of this question is

00:21:33.500 i mean why should why should canadians trust you with their vote given you know not not just the

00:21:41.580 sort of ideological inclination in terms of taking the page of donald trump's book but what are you

00:21:46.540 talking about what page what page can you give me a page give me the page you keep saying in terms

00:21:51.340 in terms of turning things quite dramatically in terms of of trudeau and and the left wing and all

00:21:56.700 of this i mean you you you make quite a you know it's it's quite a play that you make on it so i'm

00:22:02.060 i'm not sure i don't know i don't know what your question is okay then forget that why should

00:22:05.980 canadians trust you with their vote common sense common sense for for a change we're going to make

00:22:15.260 common sense common in this country we don't have any common sense in the current government you know

00:22:21.660 the guy prints 600 billion dollars grows our money supply by 32 percent in three years that's growing the

00:22:29.100 money eight times faster than the economy no wonder we have the worst of flight inflation in four

00:22:35.340 decades i'm going to cap spending cut waste so that we can balance the budget and bring down inflation and

00:22:41.260 interest rates you'll want to be able to pay your mortgage again you want to be able to afford rent

00:22:45.020 then you have to vote for pierre polyev because i'm the only one with a common sense plan that will

00:22:51.180 bring back the buying power of your paycheck now if you saw the actual video of that

00:22:57.660 pierre polyev is calmly eating an apple through the entire thing it's one of the greatest things i've

00:23:02.300 ever seen tucker carlson actually sent me that audio by text we both enjoyed it uh stock you know you

00:23:09.660 know the man tell us about him well i do know i've had the honor when i ran to be leader of the official

00:23:16.540 opposition this is 20 years ago over 20 years ago in canada um pierre at the time was a young uh

00:23:22.860 fired up university student and uh just because of the way he could connect with people we got him to

00:23:29.340 run our campus outreach program uh right across the country and he brought in just you know tons of

00:23:35.980 young and college age and educated vote then when i got elected i successfully won that particular

00:23:42.460 leadership campaign um pierre agreed to come to ottawa with me as my assistant worked with me for

00:23:49.180 a couple years in that regard so i know him well and i've watched him uh with great satisfaction

00:23:54.940 mature over the years and um not that he needed a lot of maturity but he's learned a lot so i'm not

00:24:01.180 surprised to this is the the type of way he addresses he expects direct answers from direct questions which

00:24:07.580 you don't often get from uh media and so i'm not surprised to see him uh do this and very pleased

00:24:14.460 to see how he is uh how he's running things as leader of the official opposition right now in canada

00:24:20.700 how would you describe the factors that led to justin trudeau's resignation uh my wife is cuban-american

00:24:31.340 she fully believes the idea that he may be the illegitimate son of fidel castro and margaret

00:24:38.220 trudeau who let's face it did as they say get around i don't know whether that's true or not but

00:24:43.500 i do know he's an authoritarian i do know when you seize the bank accounts of people because you don't

00:24:48.540 agree with their views i do know when you when you want every citizen in the country who owns a firearm

00:24:55.660 to register the fact that they own it uh that that's a step in an authoritarian direction when you

00:25:01.820 throw people in jail uh because they disagree with government policy people like tomorrow licht

00:25:08.300 and chris barber two uh folks that i know um i i know what he is but how would you describe the factors

00:25:15.340 that led to his resignation well i'm not surprised to see you've done the research there those are uh

00:25:23.500 all true factual uh events that you've you've talked about the other the what you started with

00:25:28.860 the rumors well you know that's out there and we'll let that float as it may um it took a number

00:25:34.460 of years for mainstream media in canada which uh leans significantly liberal small and uh small l and large

00:25:44.220 it took a long time for them to begin to uh report i would say the negative side of what he was doing

00:25:52.700 and uh really what you heard peer polyev articulate at the start of of the uh program here it's the

00:26:01.660 terrible impact of the fiscal policies people have lost their buying power people are not able to

00:26:08.060 purchase homes um on and on it goes inflation and uh it just became so increasingly obvious that media

00:26:18.140 mainstream media had to really start reporting it and as you know with mainstream media they largely

00:26:23.580 affect the undecided people in a population in in canada at any particular time that can be five to

00:26:31.420 eight percent nine percent of of people and they finally through uh polyev focusing on it with real

00:26:38.860 intensity and forcing the questions to be asked uh the public in general became increasingly

00:26:46.940 um disillusioned with justin trudeau because of how they saw what they saw happening mainly in their

00:26:55.580 own buying power we literally saw our future dissipating in front of our eyes mainstream media

00:27:03.020 had to start reporting that the last couple years as they did and started reporting accurately uh

00:27:08.700 trudeau continued to fall in the polls and peer polyev continued to rise the major factors in this country

00:27:16.380 in 2020 was the widespread use of censorship uh mostly on the internet but censorship across the board we

00:27:24.860 now know thanks to elon musk and his release of internal documents that our own american government

00:27:31.660 was coordinating with all of these social media giants to essentially silence any voice that talked about

00:27:38.860 uh whether it was the safety and effectiveness of the covet 19 vaccination or whether it was the

00:27:45.340 uh legitimacy and integrity of our elections or whether it was a hunter biden's a laptop which we

00:27:53.420 turned out uh thanks to the great reporting of the new york post to be completely authentic and real

00:27:59.020 i'm concerned about the extent to which censorship by the government is a real problem uh even worse than in

00:28:05.980 the united states uh in canada your thoughts well it's a problem and the way it works is the uh

00:28:13.980 government financing of what they call or what we call uh legacy media mainstream media uh the cbc the

00:28:21.500 canada canadian broadcasting corporation and some other mainstream media uh they have significant subsidies

00:28:28.380 available to them uh that other media don't and that's part of along with the fact roger that um most

00:28:35.980 people in mainstream media have been schooled uh in a philosophical and political world view which cranks

00:28:43.740 significantly to the left which is in fact uh culturally marxist um in terms of its viewpoint and um that

00:28:53.100 added with the fact that they could actually lose subsidies their entire subsidy if the conservatives

00:28:59.580 get elected i believe it just you know it strikes terror in their heart on the one hand and they're

00:29:04.860 absolutely convinced to the core that small c conservatism is evil and therefore a threat and therefore

00:29:14.140 taking a culturally marxist view um which is and is you know marx himself i'm not saying the media

00:29:19.740 or communism i'm using the expression culturally marxist uh which is if there are voices that are

00:29:25.340 speaking out against what the policy of the day is the voices must be silent and of course the way uh

00:29:32.860 you know stalin did it and the way uh through the soviet years it happened people would just be

00:29:37.660 you know eliminated in the public square it's different now thank god we have a democracy but um

00:29:44.140 the forces of these still find a way to eliminate in the public square or cancel people uh obviously

00:29:51.420 they don't physically do that um but it's been the use of that power the use of the large

00:29:57.980 megaphone uh mainstream media uh with the voice application of government subsidies that uh leads to

00:30:07.420 self-censorship first of all people are afraid to speak up and then actual censorship censorship it's

00:30:13.340 happened uh to me when i was cancelled a few years ago it's happened to others and they wield that

00:30:19.420 as a club which uh literally bludgeons anybody who wants to speak up on certain matters that are going

00:30:28.060 against the what they are trying to uh uh carve out as the mainstream view mainstream um uh philosophical

00:30:39.180 world view it's it it's an awful instrument um we have seen the ability to speak freely without

00:30:46.700 extreme punishment we've seen that uh increase in canada it was alarming to our international friends

00:30:53.340 to see justin trudeau actually to seize bank accounts for uh on a trucker convoy that had emerged in

00:31:01.020 ottawa and at the end of the day after all the investigations and everything else the honking of

00:31:05.980 horns which which can be irritating uh was one of the things that uh led to people getting extremely

00:31:11.980 upset and uh it was really you know when when people actually started to come to grips with the fact

00:31:18.060 that bank accounts were frozen um that began to be the start i think of a lot of citizens who hadn't

00:31:26.540 really seen the heavy hand of government before starting to wake up and say this is going too far

00:31:31.020 uh we of course now only recently learned that we have the same subsidies here in the united

00:31:37.740 states for legacy media thanks to elon musk and doge we now know that the u.s taxpayers sent 140

00:31:46.220 million dollars to the new york times well that's a lot of subscriptions 90 million dollars to politico

00:31:52.860 the fake news propaganda front that pretends to be a journalistic enterprise uh nine million dollars

00:32:00.620 to reuters i don't think government should subsidize media period i frankly think the the national public

00:32:09.100 broadcast should be shut down their their reporting is not unbiased it's not news it's political

00:32:16.460 propaganda a lot of discussion in this country uh regarding uh justin trozo's place in mark carney

00:32:24.300 and his relationship with jislaine maxwell who was of course convicted in new york city essentially for

00:32:31.260 being the pimp for jeffrey epstein there are photos can be seen widely on the internet of them

00:32:38.540 together those are not deep fakes they're real uh do you think the people in canada are aware of

00:32:46.220 this connection and it will will make any will have any effect on this race i think there's an

00:32:52.700 awareness of some of the things you just uh talked about again the um mainstream media will pursue

00:33:00.060 with intensity questions that are aimed at let's say a conservative leader just because they are so

00:33:07.660 philosophically opposed to where conservatism goes generally so if you get an accusation of any kind

00:33:13.260 it'll be uh pursued with real vigor if it's against a leading uh liberal figure the same intensity

00:33:21.020 doesn't happen so it'll be mentioned and then it's like the mainstream media says there we've mentioned

00:33:25.180 it and then it goes away and so the uh time and opportunity it takes for something to sink into the public

00:33:31.020 psyche uh it just it just it doesn't catch it doesn't hold so uh we're saying and conservatives are

00:33:38.140 generally saying we just want answers we want um whether it's to mark carney or if pierre polyev is

00:33:44.540 getting hit with questions fair enough but we want answers and we want some intensity of purpose we don't

00:33:50.780 see that with the media mainstream media i i think for your uh american listeners probably comparing the cbc to

00:33:59.340 uh a rough comparison to uh your national public radio uh would be a close uh comparison massive amounts of

00:34:07.500 money and so naturally uh i mean we're all human beings we're we're self-interested and we are aware

00:34:13.980 of where our funding and our livelihood comes from most of us tend not to want to really bite hard the

00:34:21.020 hand that feeds us uh that's that is a calculus that should not be entering into the minds of journalists

00:34:28.140 if you're just tuning in we're talking to stockwell day a distinguished leader of canada's uh conservative

00:34:36.220 party and when we come back i'm going to ask him how uh if conservatives win the next election how can

00:34:41.660 it will respond to trump's tariffs and the negotiations so whatever you do don't touch that dial we'll be

00:34:48.220 right back with our analysis of the upcoming canadian elections with my guest stockwell day this is the stone

00:34:57.420 zone this is the stone zone now get in the zone it's the stone zone here's roger stone

00:35:27.420 and we're back we're talking canadian politics with canadian statesman stockwell day uh under prime

00:35:36.940 minister stephen harper harper stockwell was appointed minister of public safety uh where he was

00:35:42.860 responsible for the national police force federal prisons border security and security intelligence

00:35:48.380 he went on to serve as canadian minister of international trade which is why my next question

00:35:53.820 i think is most important uh should conservatives win the upcoming election how do you believe the

00:36:00.540 new government will respond to president trump's tariff positions uh and uh those upcoming negotiations

00:36:09.420 you have a great question and peer polyeth has been very clear that um he we as canines are not happy

00:36:15.660 uh with the approach that the president is taking um the the history book of trade wars that are

00:36:23.660 successful is a very thin one and uh we feel we are being unduly impacted so peer polyeth has already

00:36:32.060 articulated some actions that he will take uh somewhat in a reciprocal way to push back on these um

00:36:39.500 that's not to say that everything the u.s is doing you know shouldn't be or all the concerns shouldn't

00:36:44.220 be listened to i posted uh for mr carney and for mr polyeth and having been as you said minister of

00:36:51.900 international trade and also minister of um public safety which is your equivalent roger to homeland

00:36:57.580 security i have said listen come out very strongly and say yes we need to and we can always improve at

00:37:03.740 the borders we have great border officers but let's put more money into our borders um we are concerned

00:37:10.540 about the fentanyl problems so to show that to assure americans of that let's be much more aggressive

00:37:17.100 put more resources into uh searching out and hunting down the the fentanyl production labs some of which do

00:37:24.140 exist in canada and let's be very publicly our public officials standing up and demanding that china stop the 0.96

00:37:33.100 production of the precursors that go into making fentanyl china is a surveillance state like none other in 0.83

00:37:40.060 the world they know where every precursor lab in their own country is they could shut it down so

00:37:45.340 let's be really aggressive on those type of things let's be um uh really aggressive on um um serious

00:37:56.060 criminal um offenders who shouldn't be in the country let's show the us that we are concerned about

00:38:03.420 that that's the way to do it and to calm some of the concerns but uh going this through the tariff

00:38:09.580 route is uh not something canadians are happy with certainly not something that pierre polyev is happy

00:38:15.180 with well let me say this i've known donald trump for 50 years he is a businessman he's a negotiator

00:38:21.740 and this is about the art of the deal i actually don't think he likes tariffs either but uh he does

00:38:26.940 want a level playing field and he wants a reciprocal agreement reciprocal agreement that's good for both

00:38:31.900 states both countries uh and i think in polyev he will find a willing partner uh and an agreement can

00:38:39.020 be reached that will be good for the people of both canada and the people of the united states

00:38:44.940 i saw the mexicans today announced they were dropping their tariffs and therefore we will drop

00:38:49.340 all of our tariffs against goods coming from mexico so progress can be made uh i think you have the

00:38:56.140 potential for a great partnership that works in conjunction to the betterment of both peoples let

00:39:02.300 me thank our guest stockwell day uh conservative party veteran uh stockwell i'll see you in church

00:39:08.860 this sunday thank you so much for joining us here in the stone zone
