Western Standard - CMS： Why was WEF tied to Alberta’s health care system？

00:00:00.000 Transcription by CastingWords

00:00:30.000 Hey there, it's Wednesday, October 26, 2022. I'm Corey Morgan. Welcome to the show. October 26.

00:00:40.680 We finally got snow. It's starting to look like the end of October. We're coming up on Orange

00:00:45.060 and Black Day. Yeah, I know. It's Halloween. There's even some schools, though, that can't

00:00:49.460 even say Halloween. The fun, the anti-fun, weird woke left. They shut down every little bit of

00:00:55.840 enjoyment in life for kids. But let's not let them get away with that one. It's Halloween.

00:01:00.640 Kids have a hell of a time for it. They have fun. They dress up. They get some candies,

00:01:04.940 whatever, stuff like that. Let them do it for crying out loud. But yes, this is the show where

00:01:09.440 I will poke at the woke. They deserve it. I'll rant on the news. I will go on about issues.

00:01:15.380 And of course, we'll interact. We have that comment section, guys. Make use of it. It's

00:01:19.700 much appreciated. Good to see you there, Ashley and North Run. Greater Paradoxy already in there.

00:01:24.740 chat with each other, send questions to me, to the guests, to others. I like the interaction

00:01:29.880 live. You know, we get hiccups, we get problems now and then with it, but the thing that's fun

00:01:33.940 and good about it is we just kind of take it where it'll go and having that interaction with

00:01:37.580 you guys makes it, makes it worth the other challenges of going live. So get on there,

00:01:43.000 share your thoughts, chat with each other, make sure to keep it polite and civil though. Of course,

00:01:47.300 you know, we can get a, we can get a little nasty and things I do sometimes, but we can still stay

00:01:51.940 in line. We don't have to be at each other's throats. Good to see you there, Mary Dunn,

00:01:57.020 Diana Bridgman, all you folks already starting to check in. We got a good show today. I'm going to

00:02:01.840 be a guest is coming on, Margaret Capella. She was with C2C Journal. She had an article out and

00:02:07.000 she just released a book. The timing's good. The book is The Great Reset Exposed, 18 Essays Against

00:02:13.600 the Great Reset. So yes, she's got a collection of essays from a number of people about the Great

00:02:18.120 reset. And that is the thing from the World Economic Forum. And good to see you there,

00:02:21.640 Mary, Debbie, Tracy, and Tammy. Everybody's popping in. So I'll get written. It is coincidence,

00:02:26.520 but it hit the news. I'm going to be talking about the World Economic Forum myself.

00:02:31.240 So, I mean, rather than trying to paint Premier Daniel Smith as a conspiracy theorist for her

00:02:35.440 daring to call out the World Economic Forum's ties to Alberta Health Services,

00:02:39.880 our legacy media outlets should be demanding to know why the organization was involved in

00:02:44.100 provincial agencies at all. We can't expect that sort of critical thinking from our legacy media

00:02:48.700 outlets though, can we? I mean, there's some wild conspiracy theories out there involved in the WEF.

00:02:53.580 Practically every public figure on earth has been exposed on social media being a patsy for the WEF

00:02:58.900 one time or another. Hell, even I've been accused of it occasionally on Twitter. I've seen conspiracies

00:03:03.900 tying the WEF to everything from mind control efforts to sneaking microchips into unsuspecting

00:03:09.700 vaccine recipients. Now, the white noise of fringe conspiracy theorists has allowed the WF and its

00:03:15.520 odious agenda to slide under the radar. What they have is a conspiracy right out in the wide open.

00:03:21.620 There's no need to concoct theories about their agenda. Their prime mandate lately has been the

00:03:26.620 Great Reset. They want to take advantage of the crisis brought about by the pandemic to reset the

00:03:32.340 world's economic system and impose socialism. It's no conspiracy. Just go to their website.

00:03:36.560 They have it right there, front and center. Now, this notion could be just dismissed as an

00:03:41.220 aspiration of some think tank. If we didn't hear that world leaders, though, including Justin

00:03:48.260 Trudeau, parroting it, we have to then take their agenda more seriously. I mean, the WEF put out a

00:03:54.440 notorious video telling us, you will own nothing and you will be happy. This group also celebrated

00:03:59.200 the empty roads caused by the lockdowns and implied that it's a good thing. Close Schwab is

00:04:04.040 the founder of the elite group, and he makes no bones about his intent to see global governance

00:04:09.020 under socialism. His annual gatherings in Switzerland bring world political and business

00:04:14.080 leaders together, and Schwab loves to brag about how he's penetrated world governments, including

00:04:17.840 Canada's. In a video, Schwab said, I was at a reception for Prime Minister Trudeau, and I know

00:04:22.380 that more than half of his cabinet, or even more than half of his cabinet, are actually young global

00:04:27.140 leaders. Now, he's referring to the WEF Young Global Leaders Program and implying that most of

00:04:31.900 the Canadian cabinet is part of it. How is this supposed to be taken lightly or dismissed? It's

00:04:36.060 a foreign person talking about controlling our government. Even if he isn't controlling it, 1.00

00:04:40.580 we got to dismiss these guys or distance ourselves wrong. Now let's assume that the

00:04:44.440 WF doesn't really have the influence it claims it does. I mean, Schwab is certainly something

00:04:47.800 of a blowhard. What if it really is just a group of big talking rich folks who like to talk big

00:04:52.360 and meet every year and don't really influence governments that much? Well, in that case,

00:04:55.860 what the hell was the WF doing tied to the Alberta health care system? I mean, the WF is not a world

00:05:02.580 medical organization. They're an activist group. There's dozens of qualified organizations that

00:05:06.720 can take an advisory role with the local health systems, but the WF isn't one of them.

00:05:10.740 Why were they chosen to partner with Alberta at any level? And by who? What was the intention?

00:05:16.500 AHS can't even manage to get ambulances to dying citizens on time. They have more pressing things

00:05:21.400 to do with their time than spend time and money on coalitions with the World Economic Forum.

00:05:25.860 Even if the WEF coalition had no impact

00:05:27.700 on Alberta's health system,

00:05:29.080 there's no reason they should be connected to it in any way.

00:05:32.140 This is a very questionable organization.

00:05:34.580 Premier Smith correctly tossed the coalition

00:05:37.820 out of the AHS and called them out.

00:05:39.760 And for doing that, our legacy media

00:05:41.280 and socialist activists, of course,

00:05:42.720 have been trying to paint Smith

00:05:43.920 as a crazed conspiracy theorist.

00:05:45.960 Thankfully, Smith is standing firm.

00:05:47.780 I don't think that the WEF is as influential

00:05:50.040 as some people believe it is.

00:05:51.400 But when the organization has its tendrils

00:05:53.420 all the way down into a provincial healthcare system,

00:05:55.600 It has to be assumed their reach is pretty wide.

00:05:58.080 There's questions to be asked,

00:05:59.900 but the establishment media in Alberta

00:06:01.720 is asking the wrong ones.

00:06:03.960 We won't.

00:06:05.280 That's what's got my blood pressure going today, guys. 0.89

00:06:07.700 I mean, it's just ridiculous. 0.63

00:06:08.780 I can't believe you would hear that 0.70

00:06:10.660 actually directly associated, but here we are.

00:06:13.300 How can you dismiss these guys?

00:06:14.580 They're even all the way down to that.

00:06:15.740 What else are they tied into?

00:06:17.540 All right, let's get on to some more current news

00:06:19.780 and check in with our news editor, Dave Naylor,

00:06:22.320 and see what else is breaking up there.

00:06:23.360 Hey, Dave, how's it going?

00:06:24.660 It's going well, Corey, but I heard there's trouble brewing on the old homestead.

00:06:29.860 Let's get right to the bear facts. 1.00

00:06:31.580 Ah, that stupid bear. He's been a real pain in the butt. 1.00

00:06:33.980 He keeps coming back. I gave him a buttload of rubber buckshot last week. 0.99

00:06:38.780 I thought that would be the end of it.

00:06:40.680 He doesn't come around when I'm anywhere nearby anymore,

00:06:43.020 but he tore my fence down last night, so he's still in the neighborhood.

00:06:46.600 I'm not sure what I'm going to do with that thing as time goes here. 0.99

00:06:50.500 Well, so you backshot it in the ass? 0.99

00:06:53.780 Yes. 1.00

00:06:55.800 My house bounds on the bush, and that bear would come around,

00:06:59.520 and he knew he'd get on the other side of the game fence,

00:07:01.740 and he'd just be, you know, 20 feet back in the trees

00:07:04.460 and then just stare at me whenever I would come out and ignore me

00:07:06.680 and then come back into the yard when I'd go back in.

00:07:08.600 So this time I thought, okay, and I got that rubber buckshot.

00:07:11.640 I didn't even know you could buy that.

00:07:12.560 But, yeah, you got Canadian Tire and gave him a buttload of that,

00:07:15.680 and he didn't like that whatsoever.

00:07:17.200 I thought that was the end, but here he is again,

00:07:19.480 so I'm not sure what it's going to take with this guy.

00:07:21.840 Don, I take it, Duke the Wonder Dog is valiantly trying to protect you during all these

00:07:27.620 barrens. He's valiantly biting fleas in the corner of the living room by the heat register,

00:07:32.620 but at least he looks scary. And you can't just call fish and wildlife to come and like set a

00:07:39.560 trap and remove it? I think that's what they would do with a grizzly, wouldn't they?

00:07:43.420 With a grizzly or some areas where bears aren't typical or common, but with where I live, the

00:07:47.980 Bears are all over the place.

00:07:49.400 They wouldn't be able to keep up with relocating and moving them.

00:07:51.860 So we'll just have to keep discouraging them, I guess, and getting them to move along one way or another.

00:07:57.020 Oh, poor thing.

00:07:58.520 Well, we've had a very busy morning here at the Western Standard.

00:08:03.240 And on the website, Corey, sort of led off by our old friend, Duncan Kenney, who you will no doubt recall fondly.

00:08:13.240 fondly. He's the editor of a very left-wing publication called Progress Alberta. And

00:08:21.060 last August, he sort of broke a story about how a Ukrainian monument in Edmonton had been

00:08:28.300 vandalized and covered with red paint. And Progress Alberta reported and actually showed

00:08:37.180 pictures of, you know, they said that the photos were leaked to them of the damage. Well, it turns

00:08:43.780 out Mr. Kinney has got himself in a bit of hot water, and he might be a bit red-faced himself

00:08:48.480 this morning, because he was charged by police with defacing those monuments, or the one monument,

00:08:55.460 excuse me. So, you know, he's been a particular critic of ours, and no doubt his fall from grace

00:09:03.420 will end with a thud.

00:09:06.680 We've also got breaking news on Lila Ahir,

00:09:10.280 finished dead last in the UCP leadership race,

00:09:14.340 was not offered a job in the cabinet,

00:09:17.680 despite the six other contenders doing so.

00:09:21.540 So she has announced today she will not run for the UCP

00:09:25.160 in her riding of, I believe it was Chestermere Strathmore.

00:09:28.820 She hasn't ruled out running for another party, I guess.

00:09:32.800 And our Linda Slobodian had actually had a column up earlier today that she was perhaps eyeing a run for the UCP in Calgary Elbow.

00:09:42.260 And we had confirmed that.

00:09:44.320 And obviously, she saw the writing on the wall and decided today to officially drop out of the UCP. 0.96

00:09:51.800 Our Reid Small in Vancouver has got an interesting story on 300 basically protection officers are being dispatched to provincial hospitals.

00:10:02.800 to try and stop and prevent any sort of potential violence.

00:10:08.280 It looks like they're mainly talking about COVID incidences,

00:10:12.100 but, you know, sort of security guards at every door.

00:10:17.240 Our Mike Thomas has got a quirky lighter story.

00:10:20.160 You know, we've all been stuck in the middle seat on an airline flight,

00:10:24.540 and there's absolutely nothing worse than that.

00:10:27.500 Well, Virgin Australia has come up with a unique way to make it more attractive to people,

00:10:32.540 And they are they're doing sort of a lottery of if you pick the middle seat, you have a chance to win large cash prizes and travel to glorious destinations around the world.

00:10:44.180 So that's a little bit different from the from the constant political news.

00:10:48.920 So that's what's making headlines at the moment, Corey.

00:10:52.340 There's a guarantee. Lots more to come this afternoon.

00:10:55.660 Right on. Well, there you see.

00:10:56.920 So there's a benefit for skinny and short people who would be comfortable in one of those god-awful middle seats on airplanes. 0.98

00:11:02.540 They can be rewarded for that sacrifice of getting in there and letting the large people or people like myself with small bladders who have to sit near the aisle unless you want to get my butt in your face every 20 minutes. 0.86

00:11:13.300 It's good to see some creative capitalist ideas to deal with that.

00:11:16.720 Yeah, I have to admit my bladder makes me an aisle man myself.

00:11:21.100 Right on, Dave.

00:11:22.340 Well, thanks for all that.

00:11:23.820 And we'll talk to you after the show.

00:11:25.860 Okay, sounds good, Corey.

00:11:26.800 Thanks. All right. That is our news editor, Dave Naylor. Lots going up on the side. As you say,

00:11:30.940 it's a very busy one. Lots of things going on. Everything from, yeah, we cover a lot of stuff

00:11:34.480 on the Western Standard from those, you know, little public interest stories, like the middle

00:11:38.160 seat thing to domestic stories. We do talk about the WEF or inside political stuff. We get those

00:11:43.780 scoops like Linda did with, with Lila here, there, where she may or may not be going in the future

00:11:50.060 in a run. So the reason we can do all that, the reason we got the newsroom, this is where I nag 0.75

00:11:53.600 this is where I put my hand out is because you guys subscribe. Thank you to everybody who's

00:11:58.160 subscribed already to the Western Standard. This is how we stay independent. This is why the legacy

00:12:02.760 media is falling by the wayside because people like us will not take government subsidies. We

00:12:08.180 rely on you and we respond to you for 10 bucks a month, $99 for a year. You get full access to

00:12:14.440 everything, guys, and it helps us keep things going. So, hey, thank you all who have subscribed

00:12:18.300 already. And if you haven't yet, guys, get on there, take out a subscription. This is how we

00:12:22.200 keep independent media going. This is how we can cover these kinds of stories and keep covering

00:12:26.660 them. Uh, yes. I noticed Gary mentioned, I saw something from shadow about that. Yeah. Shadow

00:12:31.160 Davis. Uh, there were some problems with the platforms last night, by the way, I just got

00:12:34.760 to remind everybody, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Twitch, rumble, and telegram. We're

00:12:38.820 broadcasting to all of those now for the time being, we haven't been kicked off YouTube in a

00:12:43.060 while. So good to see you all on there. Just make sure to always to maybe subscribe to multiple ones

00:12:47.760 because it is so arbitrary and how we get kicked off of things and so on that you never know where

00:12:51.680 we might be available where we aren't. So maybe have a backup because I appreciate you coming in.

00:12:55.900 Sometimes if we get suspended from one for speaking to the wrong news, you'll still be

00:13:00.260 able to find us somewhere else. Let's see now. Yeah. KJF and others talk about buckshot with

00:13:07.920 that bear, you know, shoot shovel, shut up. I really just would rather not. Mary saying put 0.98

00:13:12.600 honey in the neighbor's yard. Yeah, I don't have neighbors. That's the thing. That's the nice thing

00:13:16.240 where I live. I'm out there in the bush. And Steve saying, you know, electric fences are often used

00:13:21.240 the patch we do have an electric fence and boy i gave myself a hell of a zap setting the thing up

00:13:25.760 too it gives a good jolt and at first it seemed to have discouraged the bear and now the bear

00:13:31.020 doesn't seem to care but we will we will deal with him one way or another good to see you guys

00:13:35.600 denise from bc and the others checking in there uh so yeah lots going on so duncan kinney you know

00:13:43.420 i'll give a little more background on that guy if you aren't familiar with him he's a wiener he's a 0.98

00:13:48.300 piece of work. He's this extreme leftist. I believe it's probably some union money that

00:13:53.380 got his little press progress site going together. It's just a little funded attack dog for the far

00:13:58.940 left on social media. And he's managed to get his ass into the legal soup a number of times. 0.99

00:14:04.020 There was a Christian Academy west of Calgary. He got sued by them. He had to put out a groveling 1.00

00:14:09.060 apology letter because he spread lies about them. And basically, unless he wanted to get himself

00:14:15.020 bankrupted, had to back down and retract and apologize to them. I'm pretty sure, but I won't

00:14:19.820 say a hundred percent, but I'm pretty sure among the people that Kaylin Ford and she was terribly

00:14:24.140 wronged by a number of people in all sorts of media, but particularly with the press progress

00:14:28.700 or, and, uh, or I'm not sure if press progress or progress or, but either way, he might be in the

00:14:34.180 middle of that lawsuit too. Good. You know, there are means to get at these sorts of underhanded 0.53

00:14:39.540 people, but this latest one out of them just shows how crazy and goofy and pathetic Duncan 1.00

00:14:44.440 Kinney is. Or maybe, anyways. We'll see. He's been charged, you know, not necessarily convicted, 0.99

00:14:50.980 but of vandalizing that statue. I had some discussions in social media. People say,

00:14:55.760 well, you're standing up for that Nazi on the statue. I don't care about the statue. 0.79

00:14:59.160 I don't. That's up to other people. But the way to deal with it isn't to go out and vandalize it.

00:15:05.080 It was on private property, as a matter of fact. It wasn't a public statue.

00:15:08.580 The other thing is that's goofy with Duncan, Juicy, Smollett, Kinney,

00:15:13.180 is that he actually, the day after the vandalism of the statue,

00:15:16.260 reported on it in his little publication and acted as if he had an exclusive or a scoop on it

00:15:21.180 because they hadn't caught him yet.

00:15:22.400 Yeah, he kind of made up his own little news story and reported on himself. 0.99

00:15:26.260 This guy's nuts. 0.98

00:15:27.580 So, either way, it's good to see him get his comeuppance. 0.99

00:15:30.560 He's been charged with mischief.

00:15:32.240 You might be familiar with that charge.

00:15:33.540 It's the same one that Tamera Leach is suffering under right now.

00:15:38.740 I'm hoping that they drop the charge with Tamera Leach.

00:15:41.480 But Duncan, eh, let him wear it.

00:15:44.520 We'll see how that goes to the courts.

00:15:45.740 Maybe, I doubt it.

00:15:46.880 Guys like him never quite go away, but hopefully that knocks him a little more into the background where he deserves to be.

00:15:53.200 So Leela here.

00:15:54.560 Yeah, you know, I was talking a bit with somebody out in the office, too, about the AGM with the UCP last weekend that was held.

00:16:01.420 Western Standard was there.

00:16:02.400 I didn't make it up there, but, you know, I watched it closely, of course, and things like that.

00:16:06.860 And the thing that a lot of anti-UCPA people, I guess you could say, you know, people opposed to it, were hoping for.

00:16:13.160 They were hoping for infighting.

00:16:14.340 They were hoping for screaming matches. 1.00

00:16:16.000 They wanted to see, you know, maybe some MLAs or cabinet ministers stomping out the door.

00:16:21.980 They've been really hoping that party would not show signs of unity because, I mean, that's the only way, really, I think, that they might not be able to win the election next spring.

00:16:31.980 And as far as that goes, the party looked pretty unified.

00:16:34.660 The only one we're seeing now who's kind of politically homeless,

00:16:37.320 and she was left out of cabinet, though,

00:16:39.380 of all the ones who ran against Daniel Smith in the leadership is Lila Ahir.

00:16:43.600 And now she's announced.

00:16:45.640 We just broke that and we got that out there.

00:16:48.160 And she's not going to run at all, at least not for the UCP.

00:16:51.480 We'll see.

00:16:52.100 I mean, her policies do put her more akin to the Alberta party 1.00

00:16:54.600 if she wants to chase that 4% or 5% support there.

00:16:57.900 Or perhaps she might even run for the NDP.

00:17:01.420 you never know. Things that were going on with Ms. Ahir, though, I mean, she was going to lose

00:17:05.920 her own nomination. So even if she said she wanted to continue and carry on and run for the UCP,

00:17:12.300 she didn't really have a seat that she could run in for the UCP. So she's out. So that's the first

00:17:18.240 of any of the elected people officially kind of leaving. And at this point, she's not saying

00:17:23.440 it's happening because of her loathing of Danielle Smith's leadership or anything like that yet. 0.99

00:17:28.300 But again, with the amount of people they have in caucus, and that's the only one breaking

00:17:32.500 out so far, I think so far, though, of course, it hasn't been a very long time, unity has

00:17:39.320 been maintained within the UCP caucus.

00:17:43.720 And again, conservatives are prickly, they're their own worst enemies, and I'm sure Danielle

00:17:48.280 Smith has got quite the task ahead of her with that herd of cats to keep them all together.

00:17:52.640 But so far she has, and that way that allows her to focus on just the endless attacks she

00:17:57.500 gets from the legacy media and all the others. I mean, I've just never seen such a barrage

00:18:03.420 against an elected official like that. They're just lined up to pick at her and hit her wherever 1.00

00:18:09.160 they can. And one of the areas, you know, it segues well in. She dared as a senior elected

00:18:14.720 official, as a premier, to call out the World Economic Forum. As I said, my opening monologue,

00:18:20.180 she actually said, yes, these guys do not belong involved with our provincial health care system

00:18:26.580 in any sort of capacity, advisory, partnership, whatever you want to call it. Why on earth were

00:18:31.520 they there in the first place? And in return for that, of course, they're trying to paint Smith as

00:18:35.960 a crazed conspiracy theorist who has gone off the rails. But no, the facts are all there about the

00:18:42.440 WEF. I got to give them credit for it almost. They're so cliche in what they are that they

00:18:49.920 get dismissed right off the bat as being a conspiracy. It seems like something out of a

00:18:54.180 James Bond movie with these guys. But they're there. It's in the open. Just have a look.

00:18:58.900 And it's been put together by Margaret Koppel. She might correct me on the pronouncing of her

00:19:04.040 last name in a moment here. But she put the book out, The Great Reset Exposed, 18 Essays Against

00:19:09.600 the Great Reset. We're going to talk about that in just a minute and get a lot more detail on it.

00:19:14.520 Before that, though, we will run another ad. It's not just you guys who subscribe,

00:19:18.200 who help us pay the bills around here, but we have some advertisers. And the Alberta Prosperity

00:19:22.200 project has an event coming up in a couple of days here so have a listen and we will get straight to

00:19:26.920 that book alberta prosperity project is dedicated to protecting alberta's world-class energy sector

00:19:32.280 and has invited alex epstein american author of the best-selling new book fossil future to speak

00:19:38.120 on the importance of fossil fuels and the vital role they play in our economy join us on friday

00:19:43.640 october 28th at the weston calgary airport for beef and beer with alex epstein you will not

00:19:49.480 want to miss this buy your tickets at www.albertaprosperityevents.com today

00:19:57.560 great well that's coming up right away guys it'll be an interesting event okay we have our guest

00:20:01.720 in there uh hello margaret are you hearing me all right there i sure am cory nice to be here

00:20:06.840 great oh i really appreciate it and the timing is good i mean we booked you before this this

00:20:10.840 this came about with uh danielle smith and the alberta thing but it actually brought it into

00:20:15.240 the news and it's an opportune time to really clarify a bit of just what is the wef and and

00:20:21.400 what is their agenda as i said it's not a hidden sort of thing and uh no no not at all and and and

00:20:28.440 the the article you're referencing is a review that i have written for a c2c journal on the

00:20:36.280 subject of uh about a book a review of a book called against the great reset what is the great

00:20:43.960 reset the great reset is a an idea espoused by the world economic forum what is the world economic

00:20:53.000 forum it is an annual gathering of the world's elite uh industrialists politicians even royalty

00:21:01.560 shows up certainly media politicians of all stripes uh show up to uh for a gab fest for

00:21:09.000 to exchange ideas to do lots of networking it's existed since 1971 uh started out just as a

00:21:16.520 conference led by a gentleman by the name of claus schwab a business professor uh and who lives in

00:21:23.080 in in geneva and who has since built the this this annual gathering into a major international

00:21:34.120 institution. They now have headquarters in Geneva. They are more than a gap-fest. They are now a

00:21:42.760 full-blown think tank with ideas, with prescriptions, and with promotional ability

00:21:50.040 for very clear ideas they have about how the global economy should run.

00:21:55.640 Great. Well, I appreciate you clearing that. I misinterpreted how that book came about,

00:21:59.720 but yeah, I did read the essay and just that reminder to people, yes, it's at the

00:22:02.680 c2c journal 18 essays uh in uh against the great reason the book does exist i mean

00:22:09.400 far more far more comprehensive than anything i've written i've just i've just glanced across

00:22:15.240 some of the key zingers and ideas yeah and so i mean when it's gone beyond think tank and they've

00:22:21.720 gotten a bit activist it's a bit of what i said in my opening monologue and you sort of align

00:22:26.520 on that in the article in the c2c you know what or as part of the essays when just talking is no

00:22:30.920 longer enough like they're ambitious they don't just want to talk about it anymore they want this

00:22:34.200 stuff to get going that's right absolutely and that's why they're actually in the process now

00:22:39.000 setting up contracts i wasn't aware of the one that they had uh contracted with alberta but

00:22:44.840 certainly they have done a contract with the uh federal liberals uh with a view to getting some

00:22:51.560 kind of a digital id system in place and of course the digital id is one of the one of the

00:22:57.720 fourth industrial revolution means new ideas, new innovations that will bring us all, well,

00:23:04.280 who knows what the agenda here is. But it's, you know, on the one hand, you think, yes, digital ID

00:23:10.440 sounds great. It will solve all kinds of problems in terms of communication, pulling together

00:23:17.080 different files and different bits of stuff that we all have to carry around with us all the time.

00:23:22.600 But on the other hand, the downside, what's the disturbing side? Is this not possibly the

00:23:29.320 beginning of the surveillance state? Is this not the sorry lesson? We had a taste of this,

00:23:39.160 of course, when the supporters of the truckers had their bank accounts

00:23:44.360 it's foreclosed. So, you know, there are always two sides to all of these great innovations,

00:23:52.600 all these great ideas. And it's up, you know, the question is, how do you sort through them?

00:23:57.000 Do you sign on with the great thinkers and experts and ideas people at the World Economic

00:24:02.600 Forum? Or maybe we let our legislators deal with this kind of thing. And one of the conclusions

00:24:10.980 by one of the essayists in the book is that they have no they clearly don't have any confidence in

00:24:17.300 our you know our individual governments somehow rather they've got to come up with the ideas and

00:24:23.300 somehow rather we're going to sign on with them so this is one of the aspects the arrogance and some

00:24:28.820 of the um disrespect that you see coming out of the world yeah well the digital ideas is another

00:24:35.620 one of those things it's an ambition right in the wide open that could i mean it makes sense to some

00:24:39.700 of us i open my wallet i've got my social insurance card i've got my health care piece of paper one

00:24:44.420 in alberta that's falling apart i have my driver's license boy it'd be convenient to pack it all on

00:24:48.980 one card and it would certainly be convenient to me but it'd also be convenient to somebody who

00:24:53.460 wants to track and control everything i do whether it's accessing health care driving entering a

00:24:58.500 business or purchasing something and i don't want somebody else in control of all that that's right

00:25:04.100 and not and your health records and everything else and all of a sudden you're an open book to

00:25:08.580 somebody who's who's running the system like this at least at the moment it's spread out

00:25:13.700 it'd be hard to track down if they had if somebody wanted to um so no this is fairly typical though

00:25:20.180 of of how they have you know the ideas that are coming out um let me just recapitulate some of

00:25:26.980 those ideas for you one is um you know these these come the ideas come from three main publications

00:25:35.460 from Klaus Schwab himself. Of course, he's the instigator, he's the ideas man, he is the chief

00:25:42.020 organizer behind the World Economic Forum. He's been at it since 1971, which is when he published

00:25:47.380 his first book, a very obscure book whose title I can't even remember, but its main idea must

00:25:54.260 not be forgotten, which is stakeholder capitalism. He's been pushing stakeholder capitalism now since

00:26:00.420 1971. What's stakeholder capitalism? It's no longer should corporations be answerable

00:26:07.700 merely to their shareholders, but to the whole of civil society. Another idea, another book,

00:26:16.340 The Fourth Industrial Revolution came out in 2016. There he talks about,

00:26:22.020 all about, gives a big history of all the different revolutions that have taken place,

00:26:26.260 with what the internet brought, what the different transportation systems that have

00:26:36.100 totally turned our world. I mean, these resets have come along on a regular basis, it has to be said,

00:26:41.940 and he's certainly got that side of things right. Every time a major new

00:26:47.700 transformative technology comes along, it changes everything.

00:26:52.020 So the internal combustion engine is what I'm thinking of here, and of course,

00:26:56.260 marry that to Texas oil gushers and you've got a totally different continent, right, from highway systems and suburbs and three car garages and bridges and what have you to accommodate what arose out of this technology.

00:27:14.760 So, yes, so the fourth industrial revolution, he's saying now, what we're looking, can look forward to, is the fact that we have new technologies, physical, digital, and biological, which will impact all our disciplines and even challenge ideas about what it means to be human.

00:27:39.520 well you marry biological and physical and digital yeah it's it i mean the things yesterday's

00:27:51.280 conspiracies are becoming today's realities uh absolutely in fact it's taking about five months

00:27:55.940 these days yeah okay like the stakeholder governance well what that is is esg which has

00:28:02.180 been uh in my view just you know polluting uh corporate governance around the world particularly

00:28:08.740 in the West, where they've lost track of what your corporation was even set up for in the first

00:28:13.960 place. You're not social justice warriors. You should be providing a product or service and

00:28:19.080 trying to generate a profit for your shareholders, nothing else. I mean, while staying within the

00:28:22.720 law, of course.

00:28:23.800 Yes, of course. And you leave it with your shareholders to have their own conscience

00:28:27.500 about how things should work and how they should operate. And because they're the ones who are

00:28:31.940 plugged in and they're the ones who have confidence in your company to begin with,

00:28:35.080 And they're carrying the cost.

00:28:37.760 And once you bring other people in, they come in with no risk,

00:28:42.440 and yet they have loud, they're given all these,

00:28:44.680 they were given a megaphone with which to shout out their latest grievance.

00:28:52.860 I beg your pardon?

00:28:54.020 And the shareholder has to pay for this?

00:28:56.200 I don't think so.

00:28:57.500 Now, a conscientious shareholder will say, well, yes, I'm listening to this,

00:29:01.440 so I will act, you know, like my own governments do.

00:29:05.080 I will act and see that something's done about this.

00:29:07.980 But it's vastly different from giving power to outsiders, I think.

00:29:12.200 Yeah, well, and so we're seeing that influence coming in.

00:29:15.000 I mean, one of the big areas that kind of exposed it in Canada was,

00:29:18.240 well, Schwab bragged about influencing the Trudeau cabinet and Trudeau himself.

00:29:23.580 And Justin Trudeau did let slip in a sense.

00:29:26.600 I mean, again, he's not a deep thinker.

00:29:28.100 He might just be parroting a line he read somewhere, but he spoke to a great reset.

00:29:32.120 And actually, when we have a prime minister who, I guess you could say could be as easily influenced as Prime Minister Trudeau, I guess I don't want people like Schwab whispering in his ear.

00:29:42.240 Well, indeed. But you know what? You don't even have to have Schwab whispering in his ear. Although in his case, it probably has taken place. Don't forget.

00:29:50.480 we've got people like Trudeau and Krista Freeland who were actual graduates of their Young Leaders Forum.

00:29:59.780 In fact, Klaus Schwab himself has boasted to the effect that half of Trudeau's cabinet has been a young World Economic Forum leader.

00:30:10.840 So these are people who have not, okay, they're acting independently, they have ideas of their own,

00:30:16.880 But they all have been exposed to and have been part of this great thing called the World Economic Forum.

00:30:25.100 And so has Mark Carney, incidentally.

00:30:26.920 Both Christopher Fieland and Mark Carney have been, either are or have been, members of the Board of Trustees.

00:30:34.680 I'm not sure about Mark Carney.

00:30:36.180 There is a little bit, it's not clear on the net exactly what his relationship is now with the World Economic Forum.

00:30:45.600 So no, you don't even have to have anybody whispering in anybody's ears. You just have

00:30:50.960 these people who have had the privilege to, you know, hobnob with the world's elite and just think

00:30:57.440 what kind of influence that by itself would have. Not only that, not only do they not have to

00:31:04.000 whisper in ears, they have gone so far as to provide the language themselves. So where do

00:31:10.640 words terms like the great reset come from where do terms like build back better come from where do

00:31:16.800 terms you know you know that this is such a great opportunity how many times have we heard here in

00:31:22.880 this country about what an opportunity the pandemic the pandemic um gave us so that we could reset and

00:31:31.120 get on with you know completely new you know building back better that's that was that's

00:31:37.280 those are phrases straight from the world economic forum so they're providing the language sounds

00:31:42.400 great you know it sounds utopian it sounds noble it sounds um it's it's you know why would anybody

00:31:51.200 complain and of course they're absolutely they're they're they're counting on this so i mean one of

00:31:56.960 the big cautionary lessons i've uh i learned from this or rather this this book again confirmed for

00:32:02.560 me is how important it is that we monitor how language is used because it can be manipulated,

00:32:10.240 it is, it can be deceptive, it can be turned for. And that's just, you know, when it's well

00:32:17.360 intentioned, when it isn't well intentioned, when you get name calling, when you get,

00:32:23.760 which again has its own set of metrics, you know, name calling for, which at a minimum is usually

00:32:30.880 about people who can't make their case but increasingly it is being used to shut down

00:32:36.560 debate and worse than that to pathologize your political opponents and what happens when you

00:32:43.360 pathologize your political opponents is you no longer have to pay them any attention give them

00:32:49.200 any respect even encourage other people not to pay them attention or give them any respect so

00:32:54.640 this is very, very disturbing how language is being used. It's not to throw a well in.

00:32:59.840 There's a whole set of dynamics which are going on here, which we have to pay attention to.

00:33:09.280 Yeah. Well, in that language, I mean, it isn't as pretty sounding as they try to make it out to be.

00:33:13.520 I mean, the bottom line of the reset, you call it an opportunity. I call it opportunism. You want,

00:33:18.640 I mean, that gives a motivation to actually make a crisis worse because the theory behind

00:33:24.240 it is that if we can drag the world down to a crisis level it gives us the opportunity to tear

00:33:29.600 down their systems and rebuild them but there's going to be a whole lot of suffering in that

00:33:33.520 transition to this socialist utopia and it's a pretty horrible way to get to it that's right

00:33:38.640 exactly and and and there's no question we are going through a major transition but the point

00:33:44.960 is and one actually some of the very good essays in the book uh talk about how you can't design

00:33:52.560 these things. I mean, the problem with any kind of grand schemes is you're looking at grand

00:34:00.100 catastrophes. That's always what's happened, in fact, with, I mean, with Marxist attempts at

00:34:06.320 Marxist-style governments, whether Stalin or Mao or Hitler. I mean, it's a, you know, they don't

00:34:15.220 work. And it's not just that there aren't any useful ideas within them. It's just that once

00:34:21.520 you start to impose huge grand plans you're just asking begging for some little thing to be wrong

00:34:28.080 and then all of a sudden the whole thing is thrown off gear so uh no it's it's um and and the same

00:34:35.520 thing is true with innovation you know for all the stimulus that our bankers central bankers

00:34:40.720 and our governments can supply in terms of monetary fiscal stimulus there is no substitute

00:34:46.880 they can't you know they can take the horse to water but they can't make them drink they are not

00:34:50.800 going to find they cannot force somebody to uh invent the internal combustion engine or an

00:34:56.880 electrical engine they are not going to be able to force anything these are all the purview of

00:35:02.160 plain old human ingenuity people who see a problem and that one person who says i've got an answer

00:35:09.600 i'm going to try it out i'm going to patent it and i'm going to do this so the book is chalk a block

00:35:13.520 with, you know, useful stuff like, hey, how did the big industrial revolution and that really

00:35:21.620 fashioned the rest of the world for the better part of the centuries out of England, how did 0.98

00:35:27.940 that happen? Guess how? Liberating labor, patent laws, property rights. Once people had these

00:35:37.920 things they went out and they invented they came up with this that this the spinning wheel and

00:35:44.640 looms and you know i mean back then it was the uh it was all about the spinning jenny and and

00:35:51.200 the textile industry drove the big big transformation big big transition but yeah this is how it's done

00:35:58.960 and you don't do it with grand schemes you do it by liberating people to do their best and to come

00:36:06.400 up with their great ideas we're seeing uh i i won't go far down that rabbit hole but atlas shrug

00:36:11.520 seems to be playing itself out in a lot of ways almost with what was a fictional uh concept of a

00:36:16.720 world where uh lobbying is more effective than innovation and uh you know you want to get them

00:36:22.080 with the government rather than serve the people uh but i mean we're seeing something is are we

00:36:26.400 maybe hitting a tipping point like have they maybe pushed it too far we're starting to see

00:36:30.560 that sort of discussion we're seeing it from pierre polyev though i felt he felt perhaps

00:36:34.800 pressured into it. Premier Smith is definitely genuine when she's saying, I have no use for

00:36:40.660 these guys and I want them to have no part of what we are doing whatsoever. Maybe we're going to see

00:36:45.400 more of that. Yes, hopefully. But I think there's a fine line to navigate here. The vast majority

00:36:54.100 of, for instance, Albertans, I would assume, are still ordinary Albertans, are ordinary Canadians,

00:36:59.740 and we all of us are not really up to speed on this stuff.

00:37:05.280 And most of us are worried about climate change

00:37:07.880 and we are looking for solutions.

00:37:09.660 And anybody who comes along with some utopian idea,

00:37:13.420 some brand-sounding idea,

00:37:18.440 no matter how woolly it is ideologically,

00:37:21.640 we're inclined to buy into it.

00:37:25.160 So it is really important, I think,

00:37:28.400 for people like Danielle and, and, uh, Pierre to, um, to walk the talk more than talk the talk.

00:37:39.360 Get on with doing what needs to be done. But in the meantime, bear in mind, you're, you're,

00:37:46.480 you're still getting up to speed populations.

00:37:51.200 Yeah. Well, as long as I, I guess we start the conversation, it's coming out. We're hearing more

00:37:55.840 I mean, I'm 51 years old. That organization was formed when I was born. And to be honest,

00:38:01.280 I'd never even heard of them until perhaps two or three years ago. So it is starting to come out

00:38:06.800 in the open. This is the way it's done. And I mean, so long as we do it in a reasonable way

00:38:12.320 and get education, I mean, the politics of explanation is never wasted. Explain, explain,

00:38:19.040 it's like, you know, get out there and say, this is in a measured way and in a way that people and

00:38:26.720 in plain language. Yeah. Well, I appreciate you coming on and we'll keep talking about it. We'll

00:38:32.000 keep watching these columns. I like the plain language, particularly much appreciated. And

00:38:37.840 you do have that book out, the dog bone portfolio before I let you go to remind people you are an 0.60

00:38:43.280 author and you know, and you've written other things besides that. Right. I can speak about

00:38:47.520 this with some authority because i i spent five years of my life studying the technological

00:38:52.080 transition cycle which is really what the great reset is all about and what's interesting is that

00:38:59.520 that that the world economic forum has it absolutely right we are moving into a great reset

00:39:04.720 where they have it dead wrong is all the things that are that are discussed in in in the book

00:39:10.960 against the great reset you cannot prescribe you cannot go out there and make things happen you

00:39:15.600 cannot you have to get the problems out there and then let let human ingenuity at the local level

00:39:25.360 find the answers and and furthermore at the local level you mitigate risk okay at the local level

00:39:32.880 you might make a little mistake fine you're not you're not ruining the world you try these ideas

00:39:41.920 on a global scale you're looking for a global catastrophe if you don't get it right and the

00:39:47.600 chances that you won't get it right are pretty profound great well where can people find more

00:39:54.400 information about you before i let you go um i do have my book has a website look at it there

00:40:00.880 it's it's the dogboneportfolio.com i also have my own website i used to be a columnist so some

00:40:08.400 of my old columns are still up on the web, margaretcopola.com. Great. Well, I really

00:40:13.760 use MC2C. I do have several articles up on C2C. I think this is my third or fourth that I've done

00:40:19.200 on generally on the subject of the vaccine mandates on the Great Reset.

00:40:28.480 Yeah. And it's c2cjournal.ca and that's a C with the number two, cjournal.ca. Well,

00:40:34.000 thank you very much for coming in. I appreciate frank discussion and people digging into this.

00:40:37.840 And I think if we keep talking about it enough, we can shut this thing down yet.

00:40:41.740 It's not a done deal.

00:40:43.060 Well done.

00:40:43.840 Absolutely.

00:40:45.020 Thanks.

00:40:46.800 Okay.

00:40:47.300 So that was Margaret Coppola and talking about that book, which is, back to that, The Great Reset.

00:40:56.180 And, you know, it starts out with a statement.

00:40:57.900 I'm going to get on.

00:40:58.340 We've got some breaking news, too, with a statement from Jane Fonda from October 2020.

00:41:02.480 You know, a noteworthy leftist and a good quote to grab where she said,

00:41:05.500 I think COVID is God's gift to the left.

00:41:08.860 And she's not saying it like it's a bad thing.

00:41:11.480 All right, so I see it.

00:41:12.400 It sounds like I'm not sure if Dave's able to come in or not,

00:41:14.860 but we got something breaking.

00:41:15.840 There's been another attack on the CGL pipeline.

00:41:18.720 Hi, Dave, what's going on out there?

00:41:21.080 Yeah, Corey, it appears that it may be another eco-terrorist attack

00:41:25.360 out in Smithers against the CGL pipeline,

00:41:29.360 a hotel where workers on the pipeline were staying in Smithers,

00:41:34.440 had numerous vehicles set on fire overnight.

00:41:38.860 As you can see by the pictures that we found on Twitter,

00:41:42.980 the entire parking lot is now taped off with police tape.

00:41:47.800 And you can certainly see numerous vehicles heavily damaged.

00:41:52.300 This is the latest incident out there on the pipeline.

00:41:55.300 You'll remember it was only a few months ago, a terrifying night

00:41:59.620 where 15 eco-terrorists showed up

00:42:02.920 and we're throwing firebombs at RCMP officers and stuff like that.

00:42:08.480 I don't think we've had an update from the RCMP since then,

00:42:12.680 but we certainly haven't heard that they've arrested anybody.

00:42:15.640 So this looks like another incident.

00:42:18.080 Our BC reporter, Reid Small, is making some phone calls,

00:42:23.100 typing as fast as we can, and we'll get this story up right away, Corey.

00:42:27.140 Right on.

00:42:27.680 Yeah, I know Reid digs in there and dials.

00:42:29.920 He's good at getting those facts out there.

00:42:31.600 So, uh, well, kind of, I guess in a morbid way to look forward to seeing what happened out there.

00:42:37.300 Yeah, it's, uh, it's not good.

00:42:40.360 No.

00:42:41.360 All right.

00:42:42.220 Well, there we have it guys.

00:42:43.840 Uh, yeah.

00:42:44.480 Breaking.

00:42:45.000 So, uh, the CGL pipeline is Dave laid out.

00:42:47.340 It sounds like there may have been another terrorist attack on it over in, in BC there.

00:42:52.500 You know, this is what happens when the government's got its priorities all wrong.

00:42:57.600 When they allow guys like David Suzuki to go around and say that pipelines will be blown up with impunity.

00:43:04.920 You know, when you've got this attack that happened last February with people attacked with bats, with equipment burned and smashed, no arrests, no updates. 0.80

00:43:16.200 This is empowering the lunatics.

00:43:17.960 This is empowering the extremists. 0.95

00:43:19.620 They're saying we can get away with this.

00:43:20.800 We can keep doing it.

00:43:22.140 And look, lo and behold, they are.

00:43:23.940 What's the government doing?

00:43:25.120 Oh, we're going to crack down on bouncy castles. 0.99

00:43:27.600 hot tubs, pig roasts. It doesn't matter what's up in northern BC. Unfortunately, it's because

00:43:32.760 the government at the same time, you got to remember, is guided by an ideological maniac 1.00

00:43:37.800 who's something of a moron named Justin Trudeau. I mean, this is the guy who told Germany who's 0.99

00:43:42.980 heading into a winter energy crisis that there's not a business case for natural gas. Justin

00:43:49.280 Trudeau has no mind in reality. He doesn't. He has no clue. So he just wants to be this green

00:43:57.680 savior. He wants to stop climate change in any sort of way he can do it, including sitting with

00:44:04.040 his thumb up his ass while there's multiple terrorist attacks on the CGL line. It's just 0.97

00:44:09.920 another way that he can get towards that agenda that he has. I mean, it's not even just the major

00:44:15.580 text. This has been going on for years. I mean, let's review what that coastal gas link line is.

00:44:21.060 It's natural gas, guys. Even if it leaked, it's not going to be putting oil all over the place

00:44:26.120 or anything. It's heading to a terminal to export liquid natural gas. There were, I believe, 21

00:44:31.580 native bands along the right of way of that pipeline. And the coastal gas link company

00:44:37.000 coalition got agreements with all 21 native bands. But some environmentalist assholes have made up 0.99

00:44:44.020 crap about these hereditary chiefs and have been using that and they're fed by the CBC, our state 1.00

00:44:49.880 broadcaster, and doing illegal blockades and protests and things on that pipeline for years 0.99

00:44:55.800 now when it should have been quashed long ago. And you don't need the Emergencies Act to quash

00:45:00.600 this. You just need to enforce the damn law. And they won't do it. They won't do it because they 0.99

00:45:05.580 don't want that thing done. They want to scare oil and gas out of Canada. This is, we're an

00:45:11.340 investment pariah. How many LNG terminals were proposed in the last eight years in Canada?

00:45:17.580 14, 15, I believe. Only one is under construction, and that one is supposed to be fed by this

00:45:22.680 pipeline that's chronically delayed by this government that's castrated itself legally

00:45:27.320 and will not enforce the law up there. So, of course, this is going to keep happening.

00:45:33.080 You know what? It's going to keep happening as long as Prime Minister Ding Dong is in office.

00:45:37.040 is not going to change. I guess we can be thankful for whatever reports we're getting out of this

00:45:42.340 that it doesn't sound like anybody's been injured. But I mean, look at these attacks.

00:45:46.760 Somebody's going to get hurt or killed soon. These extremists are getting farther and farther along

00:45:52.280 in their extremism. They're not going to stop. This thing is getting done. The pipeline's

00:45:58.520 progressing. And when these extremists, if they're not caught and they don't feel that they can be

00:46:02.060 held accountable, they're going to up the ante. What will it be next? Setting a bomb? Shooting at

00:46:07.780 somebody? Kidnappings? They have to get in there and take this seriously. I can't find it hard to

00:46:15.960 believe that with this many attacks, this much stuff going on for this long up there, and our

00:46:21.300 law enforcement authorities don't have any suspects, they can't figure it out. Come on, spare me. But

00:46:26.980 of course, again, they probably have been told not to really prioritize it. We got to remember,

00:46:30.880 Brenda Lucky is Justin Trudeau's pet commissioner. She just does what she's told. We haven't heard

00:46:36.460 a recording of that. She's politicized. The RCMP isn't there. You know, there's some of the

00:46:43.660 discussions we've had in Alberta. People say, why do you want an Alberta provincial police force?

00:46:46.800 Well, there's frigging why. Because we can't trust the federal force. They're bound by an

00:46:52.960 ideologically driven imbecile of a prime minister. And they won't protect us. They won't protect our 1.00

00:46:58.080 industries, they won't move those things forward. If we have our own force, we can prioritize it.

00:47:02.500 So that force is standing up for us, not for Trudeau's agenda. And it's not to say the

00:47:07.540 individual officers are bad with the RCMP, by the way. That's the way people always try to turn us

00:47:11.000 around. It's not the officers, it's the problem. It's the structure and who they answer to.

00:47:15.340 If we brought in a provincial force, a great deal of those officers could be retrained and pop in

00:47:19.900 and join the provincial force. They're not all bad. And I'm sure a lot of them would much rather

00:47:24.280 actually be out there chasing criminals and terrorists on things like pipelines. That's

00:47:27.860 what they signed up for. It's a calling to be a police officer. They don't just want to write

00:47:32.000 traffic tickets. They don't want to go after people with bouncy castles or honking horns.

00:47:37.040 They want to go after terrorists and criminals and violent people. And we got a whole raft of

00:47:42.020 them right in BC, but nobody can apparently catch them. These are some of the best criminals on

00:47:47.520 earth somehow. Really? Come on, spare me. All right. I got to talk about one of our sponsors

00:47:52.580 before I get on ranting about some more news items and things.

00:47:55.740 Speaking of threats and rights and the RCMP,

00:47:59.280 and that's the Canadian Shooting Sports Association.

00:48:02.360 This has been a great area where the West has been standing up too.

00:48:04.600 This is another reason why we need a provincial police force,

00:48:06.760 because the federal government wants to take our property.

00:48:08.800 They want to steal our property.

00:48:10.320 And there's a few ways to push back,

00:48:12.140 and one of which is joining a group like the Canadian Shooting Sports Association.

00:48:16.800 You have to stand up for your rights, guys,

00:48:18.940 because if you don't, you will lose them.

00:48:20.880 And the government wants our firearms.

00:48:23.420 These guys, they're pushing back.

00:48:25.640 They've had court challenges.

00:48:26.920 They expose things.

00:48:27.680 They have a great site full of news.

00:48:29.000 Plus, all sorts of other assets.

00:48:31.040 If you're a shooter, you know, you're a hunter, you're a target shooter, you're a collector, any of those things.

00:48:34.940 They've got links to trade shows or upcoming shooting events, all sorts of things as well.

00:48:39.200 Part of being within an association.

00:48:41.420 And if you like your firearms, you know, a lot of people take them very seriously and they enjoy them.

00:48:45.340 You want to network with other people who enjoy it as well for all sorts of uses.

00:48:50.500 I mean, most important is pushing back to make sure you can keep and maintain those firearms, but all the rest of this stuff.

00:48:55.500 So, guys, check them out.

00:48:56.820 You've got to join up.

00:48:57.620 You've got to take out a membership.

00:48:58.500 It's not much, actually, and it's an investment in your own rights.

00:49:01.840 And it's the Canadian Shooting Sports Association, CSSA-CILA.org, and they've been, of course, a great sponsor for us for quite some time.

00:49:13.600 Yeah, let's just pivot a little here.

00:49:15.300 Claude, at least, commenting.

00:49:16.280 I see, pointing out, yeah, Elon Musk just walked into Twitter.

00:49:19.320 there's an interesting thing right now he's a character i like saying speaking of disruptors

00:49:24.200 shaking things up and we've seen some of the discussion you know and we've had problems as

00:49:27.620 a broadcaster by the way c11 just went through uh the second reading in the senate today so

00:49:32.540 our speech and our ability to broadcast is going to be threatened it is threatened already by this

00:49:36.980 totalitarian leaning government and uh uh things like twitter though i mean he's been terrible

00:49:43.800 left-leaning i mean they made no secrets about it they shadow ban they they crunched down on people

00:49:48.080 it's still my favorite playground. You know, I'm at Corey B. Morgan on Twitter. If you really want

00:49:51.420 to get into it and scrapping or you want me to insult and berate you, that's the best place to

00:49:55.100 get me going. But Musk, it looks like he's bringing her in and buying it. He's going to lay

00:49:59.700 off 75% of them. Yeah. I mean, whatever Musk might be, he's not stupid. I mean, that 75%,

00:50:07.080 what were they doing? Probably not a hell of a lot. In fact, those are the ones that were probably

00:50:11.100 censoring and filtering. And you see, Twitter is a powerful tool. A lot of people don't realize

00:50:17.340 that it's not just, you know, people get upset because, oh, it's a cesspool. Everybody just

00:50:21.220 fights on there and it's not good for anything. It's not a good debating platform. There's no

00:50:25.400 doubt about that. But it is a good, fast information sharing platform. And it's not just

00:50:31.360 what's shared on Twitter. It's who is on Twitter. Because even though most of the public isn't on

00:50:37.160 Twitter, every politician is on Twitter. Every big decision maker is on Twitter. Every media

00:50:44.240 member is on Twitter. And sometimes they turn that into their echo chamber. In fact, that's where

00:50:50.180 they get their worldview. If they don't turn their head away from Twitter now and then, they think

00:50:54.200 that's the real world. And they're drinking their own bath water. And they lose track of reality.

00:51:00.360 Especially when Twitter has been cranked to filter and give an extra amount of weight to left-leaning

00:51:07.680 views while crushing the conservative ones. And Elon Musk, he's not saying right or left. All he's

00:51:13.440 saying is we're going to open it up. That's all. And of course, they're going wild. They're going

00:51:19.340 to lose a lot of influence and push. As I said, it's not your run of the mill person. It's on

00:51:25.400 Twitter necessarily. I think it was only 20, 30% of the population on Twitter, but all of the media

00:51:30.100 are. There's a great image, that classic with the girl screaming that was during Trump's

00:51:35.440 inauguration, as Muskie gets up there and gives the finger and comes in and takes it. And good 0.68

00:51:40.700 on them. Good on them. I just want to see what happens with that. That deal's gone back and

00:51:45.360 forth and let's shake that thing up guys. And, and, uh, get the, the, the, the discourse and

00:51:52.800 the conversations going because I mean, the social media giants, there are enemy and our

00:51:57.960 friends at the same time. I mean, that's why the government wants to control it so bad. That's why

00:52:01.360 we got C11, C18. They are afraid. They're afraid of us talking with each other without them

00:52:08.740 filtering the message. They're afraid of us communicating. They're afraid of us talking

00:52:12.340 about things like the WEF when they wanted to keep that dismissed in the background. As I said,

00:52:16.700 I'm fairly politically dialed in. I never even really heard of these guys until a few years ago.

00:52:20.660 I guess they were always there, but it's never anything to look at. Social media is allowing us

00:52:24.520 to find these things and talk about these things and bypass the subsidized garbage that's legacy

00:52:29.880 media today. It allows things like the Western Standard to get out to you without having to go

00:52:35.760 through the government controls. And we've got to stand up for that. So was it yesterday, Marie?

00:52:41.880 I see, I would see 11 passing the Senate. Okay. Yeah. Like it's, it's, it's scary and it's

00:52:45.540 terrible. So I like to think, and I hope people like Musk, other creative people, ambitious

00:52:51.760 people, we're going to make it like whack-a-mole. When they close down the speech over here,

00:52:56.460 the speech will pop up over there and you whack it over there and it's going to pop up over here.

00:52:59.640 They're not going to stop it. They're going to try and stop it, but they're not going to manage.

00:53:03.560 And we look at the legacy media, mainstream media,

00:53:07.400 there's still a few good reporters in them,

00:53:08.700 but not many left anymore, good columnists and journalists.

00:53:11.940 But they're beholden, they're beholden, they're dependent.

00:53:15.820 They've been bleeding money.

00:53:17.360 And when we're talking about Atlas Shrugged earlier,

00:53:19.220 if you haven't read it, people, you really should.

00:53:21.220 But part of it, you know, it's a fictional novel,

00:53:23.160 but it certainly comes into a lot of realistic things

00:53:25.640 that are happening today, very prescient,

00:53:28.580 even if it was written in the 50s.

00:53:30.540 And rather, the media moguls, the ones who are in there,

00:53:34.260 rather than look at their business model,

00:53:37.080 look at why are they losing money, why are they bleeding,

00:53:39.720 why are they losing their reach on people?

00:53:41.940 Instead, they've fallen into, please bail us out, please bail us out.

00:53:46.200 And a government more than happily hands the money, says, yes, we will help you.

00:53:49.940 We will bail you out.

00:53:51.100 Well, as soon as you bailed out, you're beholden.

00:53:53.460 As soon as you've taken the hand out, you're broken.

00:53:56.840 You now have to answer to them.

00:53:58.520 and the government is offering subsidies and bailouts all over the place.

00:54:02.760 And I like to always remind people for two reasons.

00:54:04.640 For one, because, hey, it's a point of pride.

00:54:06.040 It's a nice F you to the state.

00:54:08.340 The Western Standard doesn't take any subsidies, and it keeps us independent.

00:54:12.760 Like I said, we columnists have our leanings, absolutely.

00:54:15.980 You know, we're conservatives around here.

00:54:18.300 But we answer to you. 0.99

00:54:20.020 If our stuff stunk, if we were feeding you baloney, if it was garbage, 0.99

00:54:23.680 you guys would stop viewing the shows. 0.99

00:54:25.120 You guys would stop reading our columns.

00:54:26.480 you stop reading our news copy and you wouldn't subscribe anymore. So we can beat it, guys. We can

00:54:33.360 bypass it. But this dinosaur of an ugly legacy media and establishment is going to go out in an

00:54:40.800 ugly way. It's a, you know, it's a parasite. If you've ever removed a wood tick, if you really 1.00

00:54:45.020 want to see it grab on hard, it's when you're extracting it. It'll be at its worst. But we're

00:54:50.100 pulling guys and it's popping off. Somebody was commenting, I think it was Dave, and Dave was at

00:54:54.400 The Sun for many, many years. And it's got to be kind of mixed, I guess. I mean, he's here with 0.92

00:54:58.680 the standard and he's proud of what he does, but it's got to be a shame to see the old newspapers

00:55:02.200 going like that. But yeah, The Sunday Sun, a recent one, I mean, I used to look forward to

00:55:06.000 that nice big thick newspapers down to like 27 pages or something like that. And they don't even

00:55:10.220 publish on Mondays any longer. They're dying, guys. They're dying. And part of it, they don't

00:55:15.760 even know it, is because they've lost trust. They were so gross. They embarrassed themselves during 0.98

00:55:21.240 the convoy with their coverage. They embarrassed themselves. They were so slanted, so worked up

00:55:26.920 that people said, oh, I can't take this anymore. I turn all the channels and I get the same crap 0.99

00:55:32.040 coverage. They're basically just reading the federal government press releases. So, you know, 0.98

00:55:38.300 we've got the options. And during that time, True North as well, Rebel, I mean, let's tip the hat to

00:55:43.160 the other ones as well. We all got flooded with subscriptions and we've maintained them. We kept

00:55:46.700 them. And again, the people have stayed on. Thank you. And somebody was pointing out, I'm not sure

00:55:50.220 if that was Jet or, yes, you know, saying thank you for, you know, it's our third anniversary.

00:55:56.020 It's three years the standard's been going. Derek and Dave, you know, we're starting with just next

00:55:59.880 to nothing and getting things rolling three years ago. We're still going. We're getting bigger all

00:56:03.080 the time. And a lot of that, again, is thanks to you. So, and it's therapeutic for me because my

00:56:08.480 poor, long-suffering wife, Jane, you know, at least I get some of my rants out of myself here 1.00

00:56:13.860 rather than always into her poor ear at home having to listen to me going on ranting and

00:56:18.480 raving like that. And I appreciate it. And speaking of drinking our own bath water,

00:56:22.520 as somebody was getting on my case about Uber driving the other day, I never make a secret

00:56:26.100 of that. I put in a good few hours driving Uber every week in Calgary. I like doing it, guys. I

00:56:30.100 like it. I'm forced to do it. I like it. The important thing is with that, all this time,

00:56:35.000 I'm talking, talking, talking, talking. Do I tell you what happens when I'm driving Uber?

00:56:37.800 I'm listening. And I got a completely unfiltered mixture of people who talk to me and I listen to

00:56:43.840 them. And they aren't necessarily conservative or left or right or consider themselves any of

00:56:48.740 those things. They might just be talking about the Kardashians or the weather, or they might

00:56:52.060 talk about politics. I just listen. As opposed to a lot of media members who do nothing but dip into

00:56:56.820 their own waters and read Twitter and Facebook and things like that. Getting out and about

00:57:00.140 is one of the best things that can happen to my mind and keep me thinking and getting other

00:57:03.540 points of views so I can make my points of view and then splat them out at you on this show.

00:57:07.520 So that's another showdown, guys, and I really appreciate it.
