Western Standard - CMS： Canada’s immigration timebomb

00:00:00.000 Ahem! 0.97

00:00:30.400 Good day. Welcome to the Corey Morgan Show. This is my weekly platform with the Western

00:00:36.800 Standard out there on the Cowboy Network and RFDTV and all those good spots. We broadcast

00:00:43.320 live for those who are following the live version. Hey, take advantage of that comment

00:00:48.660 scroll there. I see Brandon already jumping into the mix, talking about things on the

00:00:53.880 upcoming show. I like hearing the feedback. I like having that communication. It lets

00:00:58.220 me know you're out there. Just remember to keep things civil. Of course, there's Stuart saying

00:01:03.200 good day, good day to Stuart. And yes, I've got a good show ahead today with a lot of rants,

00:01:09.280 of course, and news items and a good guest coming up. So I've got Michael Binion. People may be

00:01:16.200 familiar with him. He's the head of Quest Air Energy, and he founded the Modern Miracle Network.

00:01:20.960 I know it sounds almost like an evangelical sort of thing, but actually, no, it's an energy

00:01:24.980 activism group, I guess you could say, in a sense. And we want to talk about subsidies in oil. Are

00:01:30.220 they really subsidized? Are we really, you know, Gilboa made all that virtue signaling, we're going

00:01:33.960 to cut the oil subsidies. Pardon me. But where are these subsidies? What are these subsidies? So

00:01:41.160 Mr. Binion will certainly have some answers for us as well. Of course, we'll be checking in with

00:01:46.860 Dave with the news and doing a whole number of other things. I'm going to remind a couple times

00:01:51.540 to this show though, Meta has started. They are blocking links to new sites online and you won't

00:01:59.080 be able to see Western Standard stories and things like that. You still see the video links and things

00:02:03.420 such as that, but just a time to remind you, take out a membership. Plus follow us on Twitter. It's

00:02:08.680 WS Online News and you'll see those stories as they pop up. Or of course, go directly to

00:02:13.660 westernstandard.news to get these stories because you're not going to see them on Facebook

00:02:17.360 thanks to Trudeau's latest idiocy and I'll rant more on that a little bit later but I just want

00:02:22.800 to remind people a couple times because they're forgetting where they first found our news perhaps

00:02:26.760 need to be reminded so back to what Brandon said he said it's getting bad out there too many

00:02:31.420 immigrants okay well I don't think there's too many but I think we're well there's too many for 1.00

00:02:36.320 what we have to sustain the level of immigration and that's that's the problem so I'm going to 1.00

00:02:42.600 start talking about that because I'm pretty very concerned about what's going on. So are you ready

00:02:49.040 to be forced to take strangers into your home? I know that sounds unbelievable, but then no most

00:02:54.840 of us never would have believed the government would lock the country down for years over a

00:02:57.620 virus either would they? Canada's marching towards a national catastrophe as the government's refusing

00:03:02.780 to even consider reducing the immigration numbers while our housing construction lags. This isn't a

00:03:08.720 matter of my opinion. This is just simple math. The government plans to bring in nearly 1.5

00:03:13.500 million immigrants into Canada in the next three years, while we're expecting to construct about

00:03:18.220 700,000 new housing units over that period. So where on earth does the government think we're

00:03:23.220 going to put all these new Canadians? I mean, Canada's a winter country. It's not as if we

00:03:27.980 can set up massive temp camps to hold the immigrants for a few years while we figure 0.53

00:03:32.060 out what to do with them. People need shelter with solid walls and heat for six months of the year.

00:03:37.460 So what's the plan?

00:03:38.800 Are we going to house the immigrants in community halls and gymnasiums? 1.00

00:03:42.740 That won't be sustainable for terribly long.

00:03:45.420 I mean, again, the immigrants aren't necessarily coming in destitute.

00:03:48.380 Many have funds, and they're going to be finding homes in the existing market.

00:03:52.120 But that, of course, will push rents higher and purchase prices for homes higher.

00:03:56.520 And Canada's already experiencing a housing affordability crisis.

00:04:00.860 Then there's the health care shortage.

00:04:02.580 Everybody's already having a hard time finding a family, doctor.

00:04:05.400 the lineups for specialty treatments are, you know, people are suffering, they're long. Well,

00:04:09.720 how is bringing millions of new Canadians in going to impact the healthcare availability and

00:04:14.420 services in years to come? Now, what it's going to lead to, unfortunately, is tensions between

00:04:18.900 current Canadians and new immigrants as citizens find themselves pushed into possibly homelessness

00:04:23.760 by the surge in immigration. And that's not fair to the immigrants who are just simply seeking a 1.00

00:04:28.500 new life or a home, but let's not pretend that this isn't going to happen. The ire, of course,

00:04:32.880 should be directed at the legislators who refuse to back down on the ridiculous immigration targets.

00:04:37.920 So why is the government so hung up on bringing in millions of people when we clearly don't have

00:04:41.840 the infrastructure and services to handle them? Well, the Trudeau government's created a budgetary

00:04:47.760 pyramid scheme or even a Ponzi scheme. You see, with the massive increases in deficit spending,

00:04:52.240 the government needs to try and pump the economy through your immigration or it's going to crash. 1.00

00:04:57.120 It's an artificial way to buy prosperity. But like any pyramid scheme, eventually the bottom becomes

00:05:02.400 too wide. You can't keep widening it and it won't sustain it and the structure is going to collapse.

00:05:06.920 I think most of these top decision makers are hoping and assuming they'll have retreated to

00:05:10.300 their retirement destinations before it all falls apart. It's pretty cold comfort for us commoners,

00:05:15.400 however. The push, though, when I get back to what I asked to start with, to force citizens to rent

00:05:20.920 out rooms in their homes, it will start and it's going to start as a soft sell. In fact, it's

00:05:25.500 already begun. In Nova Scotia, their housing minister pointed out that there's 130,000 vacant

00:05:31.760 bedrooms across that province that could be rented out to ease the housing crisis.

00:05:37.100 Well, that's quite a suggestion. It's troublesome on a couple of fronts. I mean, for one, how does

00:05:41.200 he know how many vacant bedrooms the province has? Well, remember all those questions that

00:05:45.760 seem so intrusive on the census form when they asked you about how many bathrooms you had and

00:05:50.100 such? Well, now you see the sort of thing that information gets used to. You can also see why,

00:05:55.920 not just why they wanted to know, but why you probably shouldn't have cooperated with the

00:05:58.680 census. The other issue is we have a senior government official looking at those, as for now,

00:06:04.580 spare rooms with an eye to compelling people to rent them out. We know the progression of

00:06:09.700 government when they do these things. The next step is going to be shaming people. People with

00:06:13.320 large houses or empty nesters with spare bedrooms are going to be called selfish if they don't rent

00:06:18.720 those rooms out. The politics of envy will come into play and the government's going to demand 0.68

00:06:24.340 homeowners do their fair share, they love that term, in easing the crisis. And of course, they

00:06:29.660 will imply that holdouts are racist. Though, again, immigrants come in all colors, as do the existing

00:06:36.460 homeowners and people residing in Canada. It isn't a matter of racism, it's a matter of statistics

00:06:42.160 and ability. When the social shaming, though, doesn't work, the government will use its favorite

00:06:46.220 tool to compel people to do things. They'll move on to taxes. In the UK, there's already what they

00:06:50.560 call an empty bedroom tax. And Canadians on social media are already hinting that that might be a good

00:06:55.440 idea here. Let's just call it what it is, though. It's a fine for those daring not to help the

00:06:59.940 government with the immigration catastrophe it has created. So even with the social ostracization

00:07:05.720 and the extratization, though, there's still people aren't going to comply. If they wanted to rent

00:07:09.160 their spare rooms to strangers, they already would have. So then as tensions escalate across the

00:07:14.200 nation due to growing homelessness, clashes between immigrants and citizens, the government

00:07:18.140 will use its trump card. This will sound familiar. They'll declare a national emergency. Then they

00:07:23.620 can suspend civil rights and people can be compelled to open their doors through the

00:07:28.140 threat and seizure of things like their bank accounts or possibly even their property itself.

00:07:32.740 It'll be for the public good though, of course, right? That's why. Does this all sound far-fetched?

00:07:37.120 Well, remember what happened when we were told just two weeks to flatten the curve?

00:07:41.740 Authoritarians in power in Canada are capable of anything and they've already proven that.

00:07:45.660 We don't need to halt all immigration. That would be bad for the nation. We need to lower the numbers, 1.00

00:07:51.360 though, to match the housing ability and infrastructure. Otherwise, we are on a collision

00:07:56.360 course with a catastrophe. Well, that's kind of what's got me going today. Let's see, you know,

00:08:02.840 Stone Lee saying, did you know Israel doesn't accept immigrants, but they shame any other 1.00

00:08:07.660 country that doesn't? That's not true, Stone Lee. In fact, Israel takes it a lot, though they do 0.95

00:08:11.900 give a great preference to people who were part of the Jewish diaspora. But that's a separate

00:08:16.880 discussion altogether. No sense injecting it into this. Let's see, you know, again,

00:08:22.960 1 million new Canadians each year from Flexing saying, you know, helps with Justin's inflation.

00:08:27.440 Yes, I mean, it's just supply and demand, but supply and demand is lost a lot in the left when

00:08:31.420 it comes to any of these discussions. But all right, let's check in and see what else is

00:08:34.340 happening out there and bring in Dave Naylor, our news editor, and see what other news order

00:08:38.520 items are topping the scroll today. Hey, Dave, how's it going?

00:08:41.900 Good. You got me worried about my empty bedrooms now, Corey. I'm going to have to rent them out, I guess.

00:08:48.540 It may come to it, you know, but hey, it's for the public good.

00:08:52.240 It is. It is. So, you know, viewers know, Corey, that you tried to get into the bee business, and I think you'll agree it wasn't a great success.

00:09:01.900 Your bees have basically all run away, and you're not having, you know, you're not making floods of honey, as you had hoped.

00:09:08.140 so i understand you're now you're you're now trying a new business and you're going to try

00:09:12.620 and set up the prittis cartel and you're going to manufacture drugs because they just grow freely

00:09:19.260 on your property cory like i mean that is a beautiful specimen of a marijuana plant growing

00:09:26.260 in your backyard it most certainly is i mean we're economically diversifying uh yeah i shared that

00:09:32.580 picture uh that thing did sprout up out of the blue in the backyard i'm glad it's legal these

00:09:37.140 days, because I'm sure no enforcement agent would ever believe me if I made that excuse. We have

00:09:42.060 a couple of family suspects we think may have played the Johnny Appleseed with the weed in

00:09:47.820 the backyard, but boy, that plant sure is doing well, and I can't grow anything else to save my

00:09:52.700 life. Well, whenever it's matured, I'm sure Duke the Wonder Dog will have a fun time

00:09:58.520 chewing on the leaves. Yeah, I hope. The dogs seem to have ignored it so far, thankfully,

00:10:04.260 and they're already a screwy enough, but we'll see what happens.

00:10:08.340 Good. Well, I wish you luck in your new cartel. News on the website already. A busy morning as

00:10:14.240 always, Corey. You remember all the fallout from Chinese interference in the election and Chinese 1.00

00:10:21.220 police stations being set up in Toronto and Vancouver. It turns out since the start of the

00:10:26.240 year, one quarter of the Chinese diplomats in Toronto have quietly left the country.

00:10:31.940 You know, things that make you go, hmm, dramatic scenes in Hawaii today, Corey, where wildfires are running amok over Maui.

00:10:42.240 You don't think of the Hawaiian Islands being a tinderbox, but apparently Maui is.

00:10:48.280 And the Coast Guard is having to rescue people because the flames have forced them into the ocean.

00:10:53.920 So there's some dramatic video for you to look at there.

00:10:58.160 We had a tragedy in downtown Calgary this morning, Corey, when a woman was killed by the LRT station crossing at Centre Street.

00:11:08.360 Young Jonathan Bradley was sent to the scene, and his report on what happened and what the police are doing about it is there.

00:11:16.880 Downtown Calgary, the LRT is going to be shut for several hours as police investigate.

00:11:22.720 The TransCanada Pipeline, it looks like the Feds are trying to sell some of it to the local First Nations along the route.

00:11:31.340 They're offering them basically free money or risk-free money if they wanted to try and invest.

00:11:37.940 And we've got Dr. Barry Cooper, University of Calgary wizard, pitching in his thoughts on the lawsuit last week,

00:11:47.540 which ruled that Deanna Hinshaw's public health orders, emergency orders, were invalid. 0.98

00:11:54.940 So that's an interesting read from Dr. Cooper.

00:11:58.440 And just to come, Corey, we've got another story on, you know, mind-numbingly, head-shaking little government waste.

00:12:06.760 They're spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to set up a goose farm on Hudson's Bay.

00:12:12.940 A goose farm.

00:12:13.660 I mean, you go put a fence around Princess Island Park in Calgary and get, you know, thousands of geese trapped there.

00:12:21.780 It just boggles the mind.

00:12:24.060 But even I'm looking forward to reading that story, Corey.

00:12:26.860 Yeah, it's an interesting one.

00:12:28.520 I had a look at that and they never seem to cease to find ways to spend our money on crazy ventures.

00:12:34.960 No, they're very, very good at it.

00:12:37.260 All right.

00:12:37.920 Well, thanks for the update, Dave.

00:12:39.540 I'll let you get back to curating more of that news.

00:12:43.780 And yeah, you know, if that plant blossoms

00:12:45.660 and continues as it does,

00:12:46.960 perhaps I'll bring a bunch by the office

00:12:48.380 for everybody to sample quality down the road.

00:12:51.100 Well, we can all go out and do it at your place

00:12:53.500 and stay in your Airbnb.

00:12:55.520 There you go.

00:12:56.300 All right, thanks, Dave.

00:12:57.660 Thanks, Corey.

00:12:58.380 Talk to you later.

00:12:59.640 So as you can see, guys, again, as always,

00:13:02.260 lots of news stories.

00:13:03.140 We've got reporters all over the country.

00:13:04.680 We've got columnists all over.

00:13:06.460 And it has just gotten a great deal harder

00:13:09.340 for some people to find us. There's a lot of confusion about how that worked, what it was

00:13:13.680 about with Meta, you know, now Facebook and Instagram blocking news content on their site.

00:13:20.280 People say, who cares? I didn't want to read my stuff on social media anyways, blah, blah, blah.

00:13:24.540 Okay, they're missing the point. You weren't reading the news on Meta or Google. That's

00:13:29.740 actually some of the spin that the liberals were wrongly giving it as if they were carrying a full

00:13:34.000 news products. They were not. All they carried was a link and it directed traffic to us. It helped

00:13:40.120 you find us and other news outlets. It was a funnel. If anything, they were doing us a service.

00:13:46.680 Now, unfortunately, due to the failed shakedown of those social media giants through C18, Meta is

00:13:53.720 basically teaching the government a lesson and saying, well, we're just not going to share the

00:13:57.700 links. You say we were stealing content from media. Well, we'll just stop stealing it. And now the

00:14:03.140 flat-footed government doesn't know what to do. The problem is it's independent outlets like us 0.92

00:14:07.120 that are paying the price for that because we do lose a degree of traffic. That was one of our

00:14:11.580 better areas to reach out to people, get new readers, you know, people who hadn't heard of us,

00:14:17.240 people considering subscribing. So I just have to remind you, at least our videos haven't been

00:14:21.940 blocking. You know, we're still out there. We still have the website. Get on there, westernstandard.news.

00:14:25.820 You don't need Facebook, of course, to get to us, but we've lost that tool. So make sure though,

00:14:31.340 subscribe guys get on the email lists uh you know get so that you can find out what's happening

00:14:36.980 follow us on twitter it's ws uh what do we got there for twitter ws online news and uh that way

00:14:43.960 you know you can't you can catch all of our content and keep our traffic going uh despite uh

00:14:48.900 the the reduction right now going on because of this this whole mess that they've made with the

00:14:53.220 c18 hopefully they will uh repeal that that odious bill soon but in the meantime get out there and

00:15:00.420 you know what? Do us a favor too. You hear that all the time. Share the links, get out there,

00:15:04.300 share it. You can't share our link on Facebook, but you can share it on Twitter. You can share

00:15:08.920 it through emails to friends, all sorts of ways. That's how we can keep being independent,

00:15:13.240 keep ourselves free of government subsidies. We always have been. We don't take a nickel of tax

00:15:17.640 dollars here at the Western Standard. And that's thanks to you guys who've subscribed into our

00:15:22.040 advertisers, of course. So, okay, with that out of the way, and it kind of segues in a nice way,

00:15:26.680 I want to talk about subsidies. I want to talk about what I think is a bit of a myth when it

00:15:30.640 comes to subsidies, but perhaps we'll get some more clarity on it. Because recently,

00:15:34.300 Minister Stephen Gilboa has said he's going to end all the subsidies going to the oil and gas

00:15:40.420 industry. You know, they always make it out to sound like Canadians have been shoring up the

00:15:45.600 oil and gas industry all this time, you know, particularly Central Canadians, of course.

00:15:49.740 But nobody can exactly explain what those subsidies are. So we've got Michael Binion

00:15:54.120 coming on the show. As I said, he's the head of Questair Energy and of course the Modern Miracle

00:15:59.240 Network. And he's worked on these things in the energy sector for a long time. And hopefully he

00:16:03.880 can clarify some of these things for us. So hi, Michael. Thank you very much for joining us today.

00:16:08.600 Hi, Corey. Thanks. I appreciate you inviting me.

00:16:11.560 Yeah. So you kind of heard in the intro, like where I want to start with this at least anyways.

00:16:17.320 I mean, if I don't care for corporate welfare, I don't like seeing the tax dollars going out

00:16:21.880 to businesses if they aren't viable but usually you can kind of see it you can say well look here

00:16:26.200 here's this many millions went to bombardier or here's this much went over to this agricultural

00:16:31.480 facility over there but i can't find these checks that were going to the oil and gas companies

00:16:36.680 yeah well when people mention that to me i always say well you just could you just please tell me

00:16:41.000 where i could apply because i would love to get one of them if i could you know and and of course

00:16:44.920 i don't really mean that because as former head of the canadian tax or chair of the canadian taxpayers

00:16:49.160 Federation, I'm completely against this corporate welfare as well. So I'm all for getting rid of

00:16:54.540 these subsidies. And I can probably find you a couple of them that do exist, but certainly

00:17:02.540 nothing like what they portray and nothing like getting $16 billion to build a battery factory,

00:17:09.280 for example, where there's direct checks and production subsidies being given directly.

00:17:13.860 So I think what I said about the Stephen Gilboa announcement was it's literally trying to kill a dead horse.

00:17:21.320 Like we got rid of the subsidies and we're just going to announce over and over again that we're getting rid of the subsidies.

00:17:27.480 And great, you're successful every time because you got rid of them years ago, right?

00:17:32.160 I think the other thing that gets missed from that conversation is just the net tax and royalty revenues that the industry is giving into governments, which as well should when you're making money.

00:17:46.320 But this idea that somehow it's a subsidized industry, when in fact, the industry is the main net provider of foreign exchange to the country, and we're one of the largest providers of government revenue.

00:18:03.780 Well, that's it.

00:18:04.700 I mean, so with these subsidies having vanished, we didn't see a flood of oil companies suddenly going under or fleeing the country because they weren't getting them in the first place.

00:18:14.960 Yeah. And if you want to get into sort of some details, I mean, I'm sure, well, the worst example is one report that said, you know, having to send out police or security to the site of a protest, you know, at a pipeline or whatever.

00:18:34.520 well that's a subsidy you know because uh the government's having to pay to protect your asset

00:18:39.280 was the was was the line so there there's the there's a type of example like where these

00:18:43.400 subsidies come from um it's it's really by redefining the word and you know and and i don't

00:18:50.560 think that the average person would think that um you know police protection of property would be

00:18:56.560 considered to be a subsidy um and and by the way it's not like the police don't protect other

00:19:01.240 people's property too so it feels like that would be a level playing field um i'm sure people will

00:19:06.200 i've seen a lot of people talk about that the tmx pipeline is an example of the government

00:19:10.300 subsidizing the industry i mean i i personally find that so objectionable because the last thing

00:19:18.260 most not all people but certainly most people in the industry the last thing we wanted to see was

00:19:23.740 the government take over the management of constructing that pipeline um but you know their

00:19:28.400 their own policies chased away the private sector proponent and i think the government felt they

00:19:34.120 had no choice but to step in um because there was there was nobody nobody nobody to run it but but

00:19:39.560 that that you know unfair to me to call that a subsidy when nobody wanted it right um the other

00:19:46.040 one the other one that i think is that that i would say is that there are growing subsidies

00:19:50.800 and of interest, Stephen Gilboa noted that, you know,

00:19:54.980 we continue to support projects that create Indigenous involvement.

00:20:02.960 So there's a, you know, I think we can probably all agree

00:20:06.660 that First Nations poverty is a major social issue in this country

00:20:11.680 and the government continues or even adds to programs

00:20:15.720 that would help that.

00:20:17.280 uh he they also he was announcing additional additional programs to help with decarbonization

00:20:23.200 emissions reduction so the you know out of one side of his mouth he says we're eliminating

00:20:27.820 subsidies for the oil and gas industry that were already eliminated and then on the other says oh

00:20:33.760 by the way we're going to continue to support or maybe give a bit more support for things like

00:20:38.100 carbon uh emissions reduction or in in indigenous involvement in in in jobs and and equity in the

00:20:46.260 industry so um my my sense was that to cover that they were actually giving out some more money to

00:20:54.200 help indigenous people and and i'm sure you know this maybe not everybody who's listening knows

00:21:00.340 this but every you know the the oil and gas industry has been by far the best industry for

00:21:05.140 providing jobs to indigenous people and and and also the best at uh gender parity uh in in terms

00:21:11.500 of jobs for women and men. So, you know, our industry getting help to do that, as they're 0.77

00:21:20.160 announcing that, he wanted to say, oh yeah, well, don't forget we're getting rid of those other

00:21:24.060 subsidies. Yeah, well, and I mean, it gets convoluted, as you said, as you start and how

00:21:29.380 you're going to define what's a subsidy then. An area that a lot of people aren't necessarily

00:21:33.480 familiar with, but I think some of those numbers get pulled out of that with claims of subsidies

00:21:37.320 as well as is like the tax deferral for capital investments in the oil sands uh but i mean i you

00:21:43.800 if you go on a real stretch you can say that's a benefit the government's offering but i wouldn't

00:21:48.360 call it a subsidy yeah well i think that's that's what they mean these international report there

00:21:53.240 was a report a few years ago that got a lot of play about how many billions of dollars worldwide

00:21:59.080 were given to the industry but you know i took time to read that report and it was it it redefined

00:22:05.240 what I think the layman thinks a subsidy is I mean I would say for for the average person a

00:22:10.580 subsidy is the government actually writes you a check or the government gives you a you know

00:22:16.160 everybody else is paying 40 tax but you're only you know but you're gonna get no you're gonna get

00:22:21.680 zero tax for five years I think the average person thinks those are subsidies things like

00:22:27.240 I went and bought some equipment and I was allowed to write it off most people don't think that's a

00:22:33.080 subsidy and by the way what industry doesn't get to write off its capital investment over time

00:22:37.240 and things like you know police protection of your property and the government having to

00:22:43.720 rescue a pipeline that they themselves torpedoed most people wouldn't consider those to be

00:22:48.640 subsidies but but these reports um they consider it subject the other the other thing the reports

00:22:54.280 did was they made their own assessment of what royalties should be. And if your royalties

00:23:03.720 weren't at what the UN said they should be, well, that was another subsidy. And it didn't really

00:23:07.760 take into account that profit margins on oil sands is less than profit margins on natural gas,

00:23:13.360 which is less than profit margins on light oil. And so in Alberta, it makes sense that we have

00:23:20.540 different royalties for different types of products. But that was another thing they

00:23:24.300 called a subsidy. Yeah, they started to really stretch. One area though that, you know, maybe

00:23:32.100 there's a bit of merit in a sense. I think it was perhaps due to some bad policy historically,

00:23:35.780 a number of things. There are a large number of orphaned and abandoned facilities that need

00:23:40.140 reclamation. And tax dollars have been dedicated towards that. Now, it's not, the thing is the

00:23:46.120 companies that left that are often gone. So it's not like a subsidy is gone to that company.

00:23:49.520 but there are tax dollars going to a remediation that uh that came from that industry in the first

00:23:54.920 place how would that kind of fit in well i would say in in all honesty there's the one one place

00:24:00.720 where i would say that there was a subsidy that and i and i disagree with it uh was during covid

00:24:06.880 the alberta government said hey the industry is in real trouble the price of oil is 20 some dollars

00:24:14.300 I mean, there was that one day where oil actually sold for less than zero.

00:24:19.800 And so, you know, I think every company during the height of the COVID crisis, which was

00:24:25.000 also an energy crisis and an economic crisis, you know, I think there was a sense that I

00:24:31.340 know me leading my company, I said, well, I don't know how I got maybe six to 12 months

00:24:36.120 and after that, we're bankrupt.

00:24:37.920 So during that time, the government was saying, hey, like every other industry that you're

00:24:43.720 giving all these supports to the airline industry and others could we have some support for the oil

00:24:48.420 and gas industry and what they were what we were mainly asking for was just some liquidity support

00:24:53.300 to make sure that our banks didn't call our lines in the middle of the of the of the of the crisis

00:24:59.080 what the government gave instead and this was i think more a federal government decision not a

00:25:05.780 alberta government request said well we'll give you some money for well reclamation we think we

00:25:10.320 can justify that um i uh that's that's not really what we needed uh by the time that by the time the

00:25:17.160 money came through for well reclamation our liquidity crisis was over so it it didn't come

00:25:22.360 in time it didn't help the problem we were looking for and in the end uh i i think for for my and i

00:25:29.280 and i won't not everybody in the industry is going to agree with me on this point but but i i think

00:25:35.000 that it is bad for our you know our reputation as an industry as responsible as a responsible

00:25:41.240 industry responsible companies i i don't think we should take any subsidies to clean up our wells

00:25:47.480 and to the extent companies go bankrupt we have a industry funded orphan well program and i think

00:25:52.920 the industry needs to be responsible to keep it funded so that that's that's my that's my strong

00:25:57.880 view not everybody agrees with me as you can imagine but so i guess i would say from my

00:26:02.360 perspective i think there was a subsidy there it wasn't what we asked it wasn't what i asked for

00:26:08.600 my company and it didn't come in time to help me yeah and again it's certainly if you're gonna look

00:26:13.480 at the scale of subsidies or what's going on i mean it doesn't equate a 15 billion dollar battery

00:26:17.640 plant or or something like that that that subsidy i'm just saying it could fairly be called such i

00:26:22.920 guess was still pretty minor in the in the scheme of things it was one yeah it was one it was 1.5

00:26:28.280 million dollars i think relative to the industry size and the economy the industry got less than

00:26:35.320 less than you know proportionately less than a lot if not most industries got during the

00:26:40.360 covet crisis and as i said it didn't even come it didn't even come in time to help us with the

00:26:45.160 covet crisis well with a lot of i mean the issues of the energy sector it's not a matter of them

00:26:50.200 needing capital or needing subsidies they just need a government to get out of the darn way

00:26:53.880 but but that's something this government doesn't seem to be interested in i mean that's the

00:26:57.880 the catastrophe with the Trans Mountain. That could have been completed, I think, by private

00:27:02.480 dollars if the government had just lightened up on regulation. But they would rather, at this point,

00:27:07.860 it looks like getting up to $30 billion and climbing, turn it into a compounding mess than

00:27:13.000 admit that maybe some deregulation was in order. Yeah, it's a shame. And I do feel that there's a

00:27:18.900 little bit of a misdirection going on here. I mean, if you want to look, step back and look,

00:27:22.900 I mean, all the way back to the McKenzie Delta pipeline, where private sector was willing to put up billions of dollars, 8 billion of those dollars.

00:27:31.160 So that's going to be 20, 30 billion in today's dollars to open up.

00:27:35.600 Like America has opened up, Alaska would have opened up our Canadian north to oil and gas.

00:27:42.020 All financed by private sector.

00:27:43.940 The Northern Gateway private sector was killed.

00:27:46.580 The Energy East private sector, there was a 16 billion dollar offer.

00:27:50.240 uh you know these are all high paid jobs they they're they're and they're all private sector

00:27:56.600 funded jobs and so we have this strange lng plants that have been turned down all private sector

00:28:03.520 money wanting to create wanting to create jobs in the lng sector that will reduce global emissions

00:28:09.060 by replacing dirty or fuels internationally and we're saying no to that and then instead we use

00:28:16.040 government money to subsidize, you know, forklift jobs at a battery plant. It just makes no sense,

00:28:21.020 right? Yeah. So, I mean, getting to the, you know, as we kind of wrap up, I mean, a lot of it,

00:28:25.560 you could tell that, I mean, Gilboa, whatever he is, isn't stupid. It's a public relations battle

00:28:30.520 going on. He wants to keep the myth alive that the average taxpayer is actually holding, you know,

00:28:35.960 shoring up the energy sector and the energy sector is a net loser for the country. That's

00:28:41.320 part of why you've named your organization Modern Miracle Network. I mean, you know, celebrating

00:28:45.360 the benefits that the hydrocarbon industry has brought to us.

00:28:50.300 And I guess it's that back and forth.

00:28:51.900 You know, I appreciate you're defending an industry that's done us this much good as

00:28:55.360 we have an ideological government that's trying so hard to mischaracterize it.

00:28:59.640 Yeah, and I don't discount for a moment that there are negative environmental impacts from

00:29:05.560 our industry.

00:29:06.520 Our organization, Modern Miracle Network, is to remind people, but it's also literally

00:29:11.500 had, you know, created the miracle of modern society.

00:29:15.360 And so let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

00:29:20.900 We can reduce the impacts of our industry with new technology, and we are.

00:29:26.900 So why give away these benefits that have been such enormous impacts on life expectancy and infant mortality and education and equality and leisure time, all the things that we just take for granted today?

00:29:42.020 let's keep those benefits but but but work on the impacts and and and by the way i'm a i'm a big

00:29:47.880 proponent wind solar alternatives we we need all of our energy choices it doesn't make any sense

00:29:53.540 at all as a society to put all our energy like why would you ever put everything in one basket

00:29:57.660 you've seen what happens in germany you you can you you know you can be at you're at risk you put

00:30:02.820 your society at risk doing that um but let's not forget that these other energy uh sources well

00:30:08.820 you know they have enormous impacts and you know i say that wind and solar have had better work on

00:30:14.900 their problems with land you know too much land use too much materials use and they better fix

00:30:19.780 those problems too because we're going to need those energy sources in the future yeah well and

00:30:24.620 again i mean it's unfortunately turned a lot into an either or discussion when it comes to those

00:30:28.780 energy sources and it really shouldn't be i mean they can complement each other absolutely but we

00:30:33.340 need all of our energy sources and we should be applying like we just got to get away from these

00:30:39.260 20th century ideas that you know moratoriums and taxes and subsidies are you know with big

00:30:45.380 government central planning is going to fix anything we need to do what united states is 0.52

00:30:49.240 doing turn your climate uh you know carbon pricing into it into carrots more carrots and not so many

00:30:56.640 sticks turn carbon into a business opportunity and let the private unleash the private sector

00:31:02.420 to solve these problems.

00:31:03.900 And I think you're going to see

00:31:05.180 dramatic improvements in America

00:31:07.800 as they've rolled out this policy

00:31:10.660 that turns carbon into a business opportunity

00:31:13.360 with carrots.

00:31:14.680 And Canada, as long as we stick

00:31:16.400 with centrally planned solutions,

00:31:19.720 and by the way, Stephen Gilboa

00:31:20.680 is a very smart guy.

00:31:21.880 I mean, he's very knowledgeable,

00:31:23.400 but he's got a point of view

00:31:24.920 and he's got an ideology

00:31:26.040 and he wants to impose his smart solution

00:31:29.260 on all of us.

00:31:30.900 Whereas in America,

00:31:31.920 They've gone and said, well, let's let's let the market find the best solutions and let the best solutions win as opposed to pick them.

00:31:39.800 Great. Well, I thank you very much for filling in some of those blanks, because not everybody watches the energy industry necessarily as closely as even myself and certainly not as yourself.

00:31:49.140 So, you know, good to counter some of those, I think, incorrect points that have been thrown around out there.

00:31:54.340 So thank you again for coming on and for your work and speaking up for that industry, Michael.

00:31:58.880 OK, well, thank you, Corey. Appreciate the chance to be here.

00:32:01.460 Great, thanks.

00:32:02.020 Hope we can talk again soon.

00:32:03.320 Bye-bye.

00:32:04.940 Okay, so that was Michael Binion.

00:32:06.620 And yes, his group is the Modern Miracle Network,

00:32:09.760 and he's with Quest Air Energy.

00:32:11.340 And it's just so much, you know, mythology.

00:32:13.620 I mean, those checks aren't going out like that.

00:32:17.020 You know, part of the problem with that Modern Miracle Network,

00:32:19.940 like I said before,

00:32:20.480 is people mistake it for some sort of evangelical thing.

00:32:23.080 It has that sort of sound or something like that.

00:32:25.580 The reason he named it such, as he said on there as well,

00:32:28.120 is that it's kind of a modern miracle.

00:32:31.700 We wouldn't be sitting as comfortably today,

00:32:33.660 not even close, without hydrocarbons.

00:32:36.480 I mean, look at the evolution of technology

00:32:38.940 and where it's gone, medicine, computers.

00:32:41.940 It all is completely dependent on energy.

00:32:44.880 And I mean, it went all the way back to, you know,

00:32:47.560 hand-driven and animal-driven machinery

00:32:49.980 was coming about for hundreds and hundreds of years.

00:32:52.880 That was evolving even through the Middle Ages,

00:32:55.020 things like that.

00:32:56.220 The steam engine changed all that around, right?

00:32:57.860 the industrial revolution. Holy cow, we can generate energy with something other than people

00:33:03.380 or animals. This is a big turning point, something bigger than a water wheel. And then, of course,

00:33:08.900 the leap into hydrocarbons. I mean, that was a massive leap that brought us the ability for

00:33:16.020 everything from settling the north to medicine, to transportation. There is no way without

00:33:22.220 hydrocarbons we would be doing as well as we are around the entire world today. Look at the world

00:33:26.780 today with famine. Even back in the 80s, it was so common. It was so large. It was terrible,

00:33:32.880 terrible looking at what was happening in Northern Africa back then, things like that.

00:33:36.720 And there's still challenges around the world, absolutely, but not nearly on the scale it used

00:33:40.780 to be. Why? Affordable energy, because of course that lends itself to affordable food production

00:33:47.260 and housing, you name it, every bit of it. And we have this ideologically driven government

00:33:54.280 that's trying to push us away from these hydrocarbons. 0.69

00:33:58.420 And as Michael was saying, there are alternatives

00:34:00.980 and we should look to those alternatives, certainly.

00:34:03.760 But, you know, we can have both.

00:34:06.100 And that's part of why I think it's hard to ration on that one.

00:34:10.500 But when the Smith government in Alberta tapped the brakes

00:34:13.700 on approvals for renewable energy projects.

00:34:15.940 Now, again, the left has gone bananas, but guess what?

00:34:19.860 The left is going to go bananas on Premier Smith

00:34:21.860 no matter what she does ever.

00:34:24.280 and that includes the legacy media, the same parasites who support things like stealing

00:34:30.120 money from Facebook and other areas to try and subsidize their industry. They don't like her. 0.93

00:34:36.080 They want her out. Speaking of subsidies. So look at legacy media. So they've put a pause

00:34:42.540 and see, they're talking about the end of the world. It's a moratorium. It's going to be an

00:34:46.400 end. Is this and that? No, it's a six month pause on, and it's not ones that are in process. It's

00:34:51.640 not ones that are already built on pending and applications for wind and solar projects.

00:34:58.680 Not necessarily forever.

00:34:59.940 They're saying, let's just have another look at this.

00:35:02.260 And I mean, as Michael said, too, we've got to look at the impact.

00:35:04.780 They are not zero impact projects.

00:35:07.900 Down by Vulcan, south of there, you get towards the Little Bowl.

00:35:11.320 This is parts, you know, I know we've got national viewers.

00:35:13.300 But this is in southern Alberta.

00:35:14.140 There is a massive solar project on there, massive.

00:35:17.560 It's the Traverse Solar Project.

00:35:18.880 and it takes up 3,300 acres. Yeah, 3,300 acres of land down there that was grazing

00:35:24.960 and agricultural land. And that land had, again, endangered species on it. It had burrowing owls.

00:35:31.260 It had antelope down there and it had farmers in some areas of it. It's pretty dry down there,

00:35:36.760 but there's some areas where they were either running cattle or they were trying cropland

00:35:41.340 on dry land farming. It's gone now. 3,300 acres have been taken out of the mix. Now that solar

00:35:47.060 facility generates about as much power as one, there's a major one in the city of Calgary,

00:35:53.860 a natural gas one that generates power for the city of Calgary. Now that natural gas facility

00:35:59.740 takes up, well, I don't know, 10, maybe 20 acres. There's cost benefit. Okay, we've got to look at

00:36:06.460 those things. I mean, maybe the solar one is still worth it, but it comes with a cost, an environmental

00:36:12.600 cost, and of course, a monetary cost. And speaking of subsidies, we have a really hard time finding

00:36:20.300 subsidies for the oil and gas energy industry. That's why Michael and I were talking so long,

00:36:25.000 trying to find exactly where they are. But you don't have to look hard to find the subsidies

00:36:30.800 that go into wind and solar. It's not just private industry building these. These are

00:36:35.580 heavily subsidized companies going into these projects because most of them can't generate on

00:36:40.620 their own. There was a large solar project out by Medicine Hat, the sunniest, driest part of Alberta.

00:36:44.940 It went broke. It went broke after just a few years. It just couldn't come up with it. Now,

00:36:51.180 technology is getting better. Solar is getting better. Maybe it'll get there. But what we need

00:36:56.920 also, though, is reliable energy. We need a grid that you can have even if the weather isn't

00:37:01.040 cooperating. And solar and wind don't contribute when the sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't

00:37:06.160 blow. So we still need, and that's what Premier Smith was talking about, basically for every

00:37:09.820 bit that we bring on stream that's solar and wind, it still has to be backed up or matched by

00:37:15.120 something reliable, whether it's nuclear, natural gas, or even coal. I don't think she said that

00:37:21.260 though. So we've got to look at these things. Alberta, the West, we don't have giant rivers

00:37:25.420 we can dam like Quebec and Newfoundland had. We have to work with what we've got. And this energy

00:37:29.900 is important. It's important to every part of us. Meanwhile, again, we have a central Canadian

00:37:33.980 government trying to shut it down, but they're happily taking all the taxes out of it. They're

00:37:37.940 happily sucking the equalization out of the West and happily screwing the West on transfer payments 0.86

00:37:43.440 for pretty much everything. So we've got quite something going on and it's a PR battle. So

00:37:49.640 reminding people, no, please people, average Canadian people, you were not being ripped off

00:37:55.480 by the oil and gas industry. In fact, it's one of the best things that ever could have happened to

00:37:59.020 you. You were lucky. You were born in the period of human history when oil and gas were providing

00:38:03.640 you all of this prosperity and comfort and extended lifespans and modern medicine. So

00:38:09.840 let's hope these battles keep up because the thing is, again, with all of Gilbo's talk,

00:38:16.020 if the energy industry was so dependent on subsidies, well, they would have bailed out as

00:38:20.260 soon as he said he was ending them, right? But they're looking around, oh, okay, you're going

00:38:23.420 to stop giving me money that you never gave me in the first place. Okay, I guess I'll be all right.

00:38:28.280 half. That's what it comes down to. All right, let's turn the page a little bit. Sorry about

00:38:33.700 some federal things. Perception of increased crime. We've got this going on. Some numbers

00:38:38.600 have been coming in up here. Polly has certainly been pointing it out. Violent crime in Canada

00:38:42.700 and crime in general in Canada everywhere is going up. In fact, frighteningly so. It is shooting

00:38:48.300 through the roof. I don't think there's easy solutions for it. I mean, there never is. Most

00:38:51.920 big things. There's no easy solution. But the Liberals have really taken on an outlook, not

00:38:59.140 just with the immigration, for example, but with the crime. They deny that it's a problem. They say

00:39:03.400 it's a perception problem. Canadians perceive crime is going up. No, they aren't perceiving it.

00:39:08.500 They've got knives piercing them. They're being robbed. They're being molested. They're being

00:39:14.580 abused by criminals. The statistics now back it up. Stats Canada says the crime is rising

00:39:20.800 dramatically. And you're not going to start towards the solution, whatever it may be,

00:39:25.900 until you at least first admit we got the bloody problem. But they aren't admitting that. I mean,

00:39:30.220 I see some recent stories. It's just today on the Western Standard. Again, I got to keep nagging

00:39:34.360 you guys. Western Standard.News, get on there, get your stuff. Two in Edmonton alone, Arthur is

00:39:40.280 always on top of that stuff up there. Two violent sexual offenders have been released among the

00:39:47.460 public who are both considered high risks to re-offend. The police are warning us. Basically,

00:39:51.580 one of them again was released four years ago, and they warned us then, saying he's a high risk

00:39:55.520 to re-offend. Guess what? He raped and hurt somebody. Who just saw that coming, right? You

00:40:00.200 know what? He's going to be out in a few frigging years again, and he'll do it again. There are a

00:40:05.580 core of incorrigible criminals out there, dangerous criminals. You know, I believe in

00:40:12.500 three strikes laws. I really do. And you know, you see, the problem is when you get a government

00:40:16.240 that takes a policy and screws it up dramatically,

00:40:19.620 you can ruin a good policy

00:40:21.320 because you implemented it wrong.

00:40:22.960 I believe it was California that did that

00:40:24.380 and they love screwing up policy down there.

00:40:25.760 They brought in a three strikes law,

00:40:27.240 but the problem is they let it encompass everything.

00:40:29.560 So somebody who gets three convictions for shoplifting

00:40:31.780 is suddenly getting a 20 year sentence

00:40:33.020 and then they overcrowded their prisons.

00:40:34.680 They caused all sorts of problems.

00:40:37.140 Is our justice system really too stupid

00:40:39.300 to figure out the difference

00:40:41.980 between a rapist and a shoplifter?

00:40:43.300 a murderer and a car thief you know some of these violent crimes and when they're repeat and when

00:40:50.480 you know you can't fix them you know what I don't care anymore warehouse them yeah warehouse them

00:40:56.340 put them away long long term and you know what once you do that it's not that expensive anymore

00:41:01.860 once you've accepted that once you've given a true life sentence you're going to die of old age in

00:41:07.980 prison okay then you don't have to worry about all those rehabilitation programs you just gotta

00:41:13.100 keep them in jigsaw puzzles and some recreational activities and so on to do out their time in

00:41:18.420 prison in an isolated area. Because you know what, we're paying for it anyway. With these chronic

00:41:23.740 criminals, you hear about them 20, 30 convictions, or some of them if it's only five or six convictions,

00:41:28.020 but of heinous, heinous crimes. Guess what? They're in remand for years at a time. They're in and out

00:41:32.880 of our hospitals for years at our time, our police stations for years at a time. We're paying for all

00:41:37.360 of that. They're in and out of the courts chronically. Don't try to tell me it's cheaper to release those

00:41:42.200 chronic, violent, nasty people into the public, the innocent public, and then keep re-arresting 0.95

00:41:47.780 them. Don't try and tell me that's cheaper than just taking them and saying, you know what?

00:41:51.360 You have raped the third person in your life. You're going to go away until you die of old

00:41:55.020 age in prison. We've had it with you. We can't fix you. Your brain is broken. Sorry it happened,

00:41:59.700 but goodbye to the likewise armed robbers, people who assault people. Again, there's one more

00:42:06.580 commonality you see with these. I'm not going to go into the whole side rant, but if anybody's

00:42:10.360 interested, look up the Gladue principles, guys, because that is the bottom line when you look at

00:42:15.820 most of these offenders who keep getting released and keep getting light sentences for very, very

00:42:20.380 serious crimes. Tracy, too, saying, weirdo, crime's gone up since Trudeau's reign in mass immigration

00:42:26.020 policy. Yeah, you see, some of the crime is from new Canadians, but a whole lot, actually, 1.00

00:42:32.540 in fact, are disproportionately high, and that's a much bigger discussion, is coming from our

00:42:36.300 Indigenous Canadians. If you look at the cities with the highest crime rates in Canada, violent 1.00

00:42:41.860 crime rates, they're always the cities with the highest percentage of Indigenous people. No, it's 1.00

00:42:46.760 not saying Indigenous, don't misinterpret this. It's not saying that they're naturally criminals

00:42:51.440 by any means. What it's saying, obviously, is that the system is not treating Indigenous Canadians

00:42:56.060 well at all. They are not doing well, and we need to change how we're approaching our entire

00:43:01.800 Indigenous policy, but as it is, they're the highest victims and perpetrators of most crimes 1.00

00:43:07.800 in Canada right now. And yes, they do disproportionately fill up the bulk of our

00:43:11.580 prison spaces right now. In fact, those GLADU principles I referenced earlier, that's a policy

00:43:16.080 that's talking about how to keep First Nations people out of our prisons because they've had 1.00

00:43:22.080 different challenges and things in their backgrounds. Well, those policies have been

00:43:25.140 in place for what, over 20 years now, and Indigenous people are making up still a higher 0.99

00:43:29.140 percentage in prisons than they ever did. So let's just face it, that policy failed. It failed. It

00:43:33.980 didn't work. And we got to be careful. Again, I'm not talking about targeting Indigenous people for

00:43:38.080 long-term prison sentences. I'm just talking about because there's non-Indigenous people who do some 1.00

00:43:42.100 horrific crimes too. But we got to get realistic about where the problems are. And we got to stop

00:43:47.300 making excuses. I don't care about the background of the offender. I really don't. I mean, it's

00:43:53.320 tragic. I understand people who have been assaulted and harmed in their young life are much more

00:43:58.920 likely to end up going off the rails when they're older. And it's tragic. It's wrong. It's

00:44:03.180 suckless. Try and prevent that as much as we can. But once it's done, once they're committing the

00:44:08.100 crimes, once they're reoffending, once they're harming citizens, once they're putting citizens

00:44:11.060 at risk, we have to quit worrying about what got them there and just worry about stopping them from

00:44:15.640 continuing with what they've been doing. And meanwhile, releasing stabbers and armed robbers

00:44:22.280 and these things. And a lot of it's tied to the opioid addiction epidemic as well. That's a large

00:44:27.360 part of it. But we talk about stabbings and things, look at the numbers, look at the stories,

00:44:33.760 read them up. There are often people on the streets, they're often addicted. Or when you

00:44:37.440 see all the shootings that are going on, and there's a lot of shootings, those aren't the

00:44:40.280 addicts, because any addict who gets a hold of a gun is going to sell that thing as fast as they

00:44:43.160 can to get more crap. But killers, of course, I mean, they've got a big lucrative market of

00:44:49.480 addicts out there, and they need to keep selling to and feeding and funding. So they're shooting

00:44:54.620 each other up in gang wars. And it gets into a large, complicated discussion going on about how

00:45:01.180 we deal with drug policy and things such as that. It's messy. Getting back to where I started that

00:45:07.880 whole rant is admitting that crime is going up. And again, it's similar to what I was talking

00:45:12.880 about with the immigration thing. It's not a matter of opinion. It's math. The crimes are 0.98

00:45:17.260 going up. People don't have a perception of being unsafe when they go into urban cities in Canada

00:45:22.460 right now. They are unsafe when they go into those places right now. It is dangerous to go

00:45:27.400 to those places right now. There are people stabbing and robbing people in those places right

00:45:31.340 now. And there's a few things we can do about it. No easy things, but there's a few. Start by

00:45:36.120 admitting the crime's going up and start giving real sentences to those real repeat offenders.

00:45:42.500 All right, guys, that's kind of used up my time today. So I appreciate you all coming to join.
