Somebody who voted for Mark Carney, his lack of awareness, to me, is scary.
00:00:06.720
I want to know more about your stance about liberals aren't the cure, they're the problem.
00:00:11.440
Because I'm pretty in the middle between parties.
00:00:16.400
So, because, I mean, I take politics courses and stuff like that.
00:00:20.080
I'm very into politics, but I see good and bad from both sides.
00:00:24.460
recently i have seen more questionable activities from the liberal party um i just want to know
00:00:34.600
your stance on it yeah okay so if you look at everything that the liberal party has had their
00:00:41.620
hand in it seems to all have gone awry maybe not everything but almost all of it yeah so like
00:00:51.700
I mean, if you just take the national debt itself, why would they overspend that much?
00:01:03.420
He should understand things like inflation and the quantitative theory of money.
00:01:09.860
So when he goes to adding so much more money to our economic system, that's going to cause
00:01:17.540
it's going to make things harder and this generational investment that he is putting
00:01:21.780
into the country which i mean i'm not seeing if you look at the budget it's like
00:01:25.540
really i'm not kind of not seeing the generational investment here but he's putting that in as
00:01:32.900
as inflationary spending it's literally not going to do anything it's just going to basically make
00:01:40.340
our lives worse so he's a smart guy he should be able to understand that yeah and when I look at
00:01:47.960
him I think okay maybe there's something a little devious about what he's doing maybe he wants us to
00:01:53.300
be dependent on him for government handouts like I know that sounds kind of conspiratorial
00:01:59.000
but when you look at what he's done like it makes no sense to assume something else
00:02:06.360
well there's sorry there's there's some things i at least from what i see at the moment mark
00:02:12.080
carney is put in i want to say one of the most difficult terms you could be a prime minister in
00:02:18.600
with all the immigration out of control with inflation right now in canada reaching new highs
00:02:26.480
with um living standards plummeting and the whole fiasco with the trump administration
00:02:33.560
It is a bad time to be a prime minister, both sides.
00:02:40.260
a large part of that budget is going to these huge industrial projects
00:02:45.840
In terms of there's a huge copper mine in Saskatchewan.
00:02:51.360
They are trying to build a new highway and new economic system
00:03:00.820
and um i think it was a new um power plant addition to the power plant out in ontario
00:03:08.900
so i think from what i see from him is more of a hail mary attempt to put this huge investment in
00:03:18.300
to in years reap the reward my problem is i don't think that's going to help and i think
00:03:25.380
Right now, I think that's a little bit too little, too late.
00:03:31.080
And even though the budget is way over what anyone was going to think,
00:03:35.600
even before the budget came out, I knew the budget was going to be high.
00:03:39.200
Just because of everything going on in an economic crisis like this,
00:03:52.480
Now, I don't know if he's getting any government handouts,
00:04:23.580
it's too early oh my goodness no a lot of those things like there were six i think it's a six
00:04:30.280
projects or 12 six projects maybe um only major projects and then there was six other
00:04:36.800
there could be there was probably a few more than six but then there's several other smaller
00:04:42.460
projects that he's building as well i know they're building a huge expansion of the montreal harbor
00:04:46.040
that's one that is long overdue um but again i just think right now that's not the problem i
00:04:54.780
think we have to fix what's going on right now in the country rather than trying this hail mary
00:04:58.880
but do you know actually that those projects that he announced many of them were already approved
00:05:05.500
and funded in during the trudeau era oh yeah but would they the thing is is that it's are they
00:05:11.880
going to go through because during trudeau's reign i don't want to say reign while trudeau
00:05:15.820
was prime minister we all knew they weren't going to get accepted they weren't going to go through
00:05:20.160
they're the some of these projects especially the montreal harbor pretty sure has been in works for
00:05:25.160
so long and i think it's just a talk of is he going to actually do it and i think announcing
00:05:32.540
it is a start for actually doing it because trudeau seemed like he forgot about it and
00:05:42.020
they're leaning so much for the conservative because they feel forgotten.
00:05:46.700
And I think that's his attempt to try and, you know,
00:05:52.540
bring jobs back to those areas, especially in Saskatoon,
00:05:56.140
not Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, where they're hurting.
00:06:04.620
at least to try to get these projects approved.
00:06:06.540
because at the end of the day, it's also not totally in its control
00:06:13.660
Do I think most of these projects should go through?
00:06:33.040
and i think he he's hoping that it will pay off which it could it would be really difficult to
00:06:41.580
and a lot of things would have to go right but it most certainly most likely won't um
00:06:50.500
all i hope is that we don't have too much information about any handouts or anything
00:06:56.760
like that there's some but i just hope that um we um as a country that he isn't giving these
00:07:09.340
houndouts and that these projects actually go to people because if they if if these handouts
00:07:16.800
start getting uncovered then i think his his like reign as prime minister is gonna gonna be very
00:07:25.880
rocky very very rocky and even as somebody voted for Mark Carney I don't know the past few months
00:07:36.180
even though it's just the start just the his lack of awareness to me is scary and I would say I mean
00:07:47.120
both sides are scary I think I think parts of conservative side are scary too
