00:00:00.000 Are you anti-liberal?
00:00:01.240 I'm actually a 19th century liberal.
00:00:04.360 The thing is with the Trudeau government is they actually kind of hindered our economic development as a country.
00:00:09.980 And, like, they refused all sorts of, like, development projects.
00:00:13.800 And it's actually nowadays it takes, like, 18 years to even get a mine approved, like, just for that.
00:00:20.520 So, like, the development and the economic growth in Canada has been severely slowed.
00:00:25.200 Carney is like putting up another agency to say, hey, supervise the development of stuff.
00:00:32.620 And they think that that's going to make things develop quicker, which is kind of like to me ironic.
00:00:40.140 But yeah, I'm trying to get people to think a little bit more critically about the role of government and kind of the role of the free market,
00:00:47.640 because the free market has had the most success of any market in the entire world.
00:00:52.860 Are you anti-liberal?
00:00:53.700 i don't say you know here's funny i'm actually a 19th century liberal
00:01:00.780 it's interesting it has totally changed the term liberal has totally changed
00:01:07.320 in say the late 19th century early 20th century the term liberal meant that you viewed the
00:01:13.740 individual as the ultimate entity and that their well-being was like the most important thing and
00:01:19.600 the best way for the individual to be like happy and successful was for them to be totally free
00:01:25.940 and the government step out of the way but the term liberal has changed to where now like in
00:01:31.560 like the 30s to like the 60s it changed to be something about the government uh being the one
00:01:38.140 that helps you and like welfare programs and things like that that's it changed that way so
00:01:44.420 that's why i say i'm a 19th century liberal because like just how i view things for like
00:01:48.960 government does that make sense no I get that because a lot of people see I can't
00:01:53.880 really speak for this because I moved in to Canada after Truda took took office
00:02:01.000 maybe like a year or two into his first term so I can't really say much
00:02:05.880 about how liberals look before but that's a really interesting take because
00:02:09.820 I do hear from a lot of my Canadian friends that were born here that
00:02:12.360 liberalism has changed over the years when Truda took place he said they said
00:02:17.940 that he set the dumpster on fire and Carney's just making it worse that's
00:02:23.560 what I heard at least I can't really speak for that because I'm not really
00:02:26.280 very political but I do hear what you're saying where government has taken a lot
00:02:32.280 taken a lot more action into their own hands and and people's lives if you get
00:02:38.120 what I mean but I do believe that people should work for themselves for things
00:02:43.480 that they require in their life, like housing, I guess.
00:02:48.400 Jobs, if government stands in their way,
00:02:50.640 then that's definitely an issue that makes housing
00:02:53.480 unaffordable, so on like that.
00:02:56.780 And obviously, immigration,
00:02:58.700 if government doesn't put a limit to it, 0.92
00:03:00.640 then it's just gonna keep getting worse from here.
