00:00:00.000 good day welcome to the cory morgan show
00:00:29.340 as we go into september the leaves are turning out there i can see that when i'm driving in and
00:00:34.540 it depresses me i hate winter with an unholy passion so just giving you a warning i'm just
00:00:38.240 gonna get crabbier and crabbier as it gets colder towards the bottom of the year i'll start to
00:00:42.520 brighten up after the uh the shortest day of the year till then you got my grumpy commentary on
00:00:49.280 things lost to comment about lost for me to be grumpy about today also good things of course
00:00:53.260 and stuff like that i've got alberta commentator john bolton on he's a former radio host you might
00:00:58.940 know him on his youtube channel he's he's very prolific with some great stuff on there and i'm
00:01:04.300 going to check in with dave on some new stuff lots going on out there right now actually we're not
00:01:08.080 short of news to cover i see jordan and uh donald there on the comment scroll yeah this is live guys
00:01:14.280 uh interact send those comments my way chat with each other you know just try to stay civil we can
00:01:19.580 keep the fighting to x or somewhere else but on here you know we can try and keep it reasonable i
00:01:23.620 see them all but i don't necessarily read them all out so i'm gonna get on what i'm ranting about
00:01:28.980 today uh mark carney is here in alberta an enemy territory as far as liberals go with a liberal
00:01:34.440 caucus meeting getting ready for next uh uh the next session of parliament which is coming up pretty
00:01:41.680 soon and uh they came up with their big list of projects as you've been talking about the projects
00:01:45.780 and noticeably absent no pipelines and the liberals are saying as usual it's because there's no private
00:01:51.740 interest well canada's economy is spluttering and it's going to continue to under liberal rule
00:01:57.000 carney's administration it's no less economically reckless than the trudeau administration was and
00:02:03.660 for the same reason carney's net zero obsession is overwhelming any pragmatism when it comes to
00:02:08.800 policy reforms he can't allow himself to support any policy that might clash with his green vision
00:02:13.920 for the world as he dithers and offers double speak while industries continue their decline in
00:02:19.320 fleeing canada carney's indicated he would support expanding canada's pipeline network
00:02:24.320 so petroleum products could be exported overseas markets yet he refuses to drop the tanker ban or
00:02:30.080 bill c69 which is known as the no more pipelines bill and it makes expansions impossible he knows that
00:02:36.140 carney repealed the consumer carbon tax but maintained the clean fuel mandate which continues to keep
00:02:41.280 energy costs and cost of living in general high he's paused but won't rescind the wretched ev mandates
00:02:48.160 which are going to lead to a ban of conventional vehicles even when facing fines if they couldn't
00:02:53.860 meet the 20 sales minimum to be imposed this 2026 before the pause dealerships couldn't even come
00:02:59.220 close to meeting those targets in fact sales of evs in canada have collapsed with the new ev
00:03:03.880 registrations down by 39 percent in the second quarter of 2025 look the cars are expensive unreliable
00:03:10.400 poorly suited to canada's climate and we don't have the infrastructure to manage them but despite all this
00:03:15.160 carney clings to the mandate to ban regular vehicles as he's causing a chill in an automotive industry
00:03:20.920 already reeling under a trade war the liberals imposed 100 tariff on chinese electric vehicles
00:03:26.560 which earned that massive retaliatory tariff on canadian canola but rather than lift the tariff
00:03:31.960 which protects a canadian market that doesn't exist carney's spending hundreds of millions of tax
00:03:36.480 dollars on a biofuel initiative so the canola that we can't sell could be burned in vehicles
00:03:41.000 canadian housing availability that's still a crisis levels in some regions and a contributing factor
00:03:46.060 is the green building strategy which puts regulations on construction which raises costs
00:03:50.080 slows the construction and puts contractors out of work meanwhile billions of tax dollars are still
00:03:55.200 slated to go out in various ev and battery plants despite the chronic failures of these industries
00:03:59.580 the trend is the same across the board the carney government claims to be concerned with the
00:04:03.900 economy but won't make the changes it needs because they clash with the environmental goals of the
00:04:08.440 regime this won't change because we're being governed by ideologues mark carney's proven himself
00:04:14.140 effective in saying all the right words to get elected but weak on action once in office
00:04:18.460 he's been painted as a pragmatist but he's anything but he's blinded by an obsession to fight climate
00:04:23.160 change through legislation no matter how much it makes we the citizens suffer ideologues are immune to
00:04:29.420 reason and when they've convinced themselves they're saving the world they're never going to back down
00:04:33.700 carney like trudeau before him believes the world's facing an existential crisis that he can manage
00:04:38.280 to stop through legislative changes he has a messiah complex feels he knows what must be done and the
00:04:43.800 masses must accept it for their own good he's also an elitist he has no interest in listening to those
00:04:48.720 he considers to be his subjects canada's going to stop trying to be the world boy scout and start
00:04:53.280 looking out for itself carney reflects a nation crippled by mediocrity and lacking ambition
00:04:59.760 unfortunately and again like trudeau carney's more concerned with his european reputation than
00:05:04.440 the well-being of the citizens he's actually responsible for maybe if carney could be convinced
00:05:08.940 that european leaders he's trying to endear himself to would value his company more if canada
00:05:12.820 was actually selling them oil and gas rather than environmental platitudes he would change his
00:05:17.440 stance on the environmental development or energy development maybe in that case who knows he needs
00:05:21.700 some some fluffing from the european crowd his predecessor embarrassed the nation when he turned
00:05:26.720 down germany's offer to buy canadian gas carney doesn't have to follow trudeau's economically
00:05:31.440 incompetent footsteps after months of dithering and talking about uh talking big you know that
00:05:36.700 list of canadian infrastructure projects is still lacking any oil pipelines the government's claiming
00:05:41.040 it's the fault of privacy private industries because no companies are going to step up to build it but
00:05:46.040 of course they won't no investor in their right mind is going to build a pipeline when the federal
00:05:49.840 government's uh legislation there no more pipeline thing the tanker ban and the implied requirement for
00:05:55.420 indigenous consent for every project is out there can won't get pipelines because carney doesn't want
00:06:00.180 pipelines it's as simple as that the only question now is whether the entire nation's going to swirl
00:06:04.580 down the economic drain due to the zealous environmentalism of carney or if a nation's
00:06:09.160 going to split so at least the west can escape the fate of the east you know i'm hoping for the latter 1.00
00:06:13.500 option by the way there's my bright and cheery outlook this morning guys let's turn to dave and
00:06:18.320 see what's happening in the news other than that how's it going good you not too bad actually you know
00:06:22.420 how i can tell winter's coming yeah well when you're growing your beard yes yeah i gotta keep warmer for the
00:06:27.160 season keep your chin warm or i'm just too cheap to buy more razors yeah maybe uh big game on sunday
00:06:33.700 big big game steelers uh versus my seahawks your steelers oh the upcoming yes the upcoming game on
00:06:40.560 sunday yes i'm looking forward to rubbing your nose in the loss we shall see my friend we shall see
00:06:45.220 hey did you see uh justin trudeau has entered the uh speaker's circuit i did a hundred grand a speech
00:06:51.980 she's he's asking somebody'll pay it so he was over in japan delivering one i wouldn't pay 10 bucks
00:06:57.640 to see that i'd pay to have the volume muted that umming and ahhing and his voice is his nails on a
00:07:03.320 chalkboard no i know i haven't heard it for a while which is good which is good you can speak in japan
00:07:08.520 all he likes i don't know uh some of those mark carney press conferences where he ums and ahs
00:07:13.140 it's it's painful um as you said very very busy news morning uh you talked about pipelines and it
00:07:21.000 not being in the initial list of uh national interest projects uh daniel smith the alberta
00:07:26.280 premier just finished a press conference and was asked about that and she's still optimistic cory
00:07:31.220 uh she says uh these projects can be added at any time uh and they just need to you know get rid of
00:07:38.600 some of the the regulatory processes that prevent them like the tanker ban and the the pipeline ban
00:07:45.240 and all that sort of good stuff so she's still optimistic uh teachers fresh from their two months
00:07:50.540 off uh during the summer have announced october 6th will be the strike date uh monday uh that's if
00:07:57.500 they can't reach a negotiated settlement with uh with the province uh the province basically said
00:08:04.560 they've offered them 12 percent uh over the term of the contract and if they want any more money
00:08:10.420 then they can kiss the notion of hiring more teachers goodbye that have one or the other right
00:08:15.060 so uh if i was a parent i'd be finding my alternative daycare arrangements at this point
00:08:21.940 should be finding alternative forms of education i mean it is a good point people gotta be getting sick
00:08:25.920 and be put over the barrel by these teachers yes they said they just have their two months off and
00:08:29.500 when you add it all together they get three months off a year plus a pension plus a six figure
00:08:32.820 salary and they bitch i don't know i've had it with them yeah well you know what it is a tough job 1.00
00:08:39.580 i do have some sympathy for them it shouldn't be middle wage no but as you say they're they're paid
00:08:45.100 well uh and they do get all that time off but uh hopefully they can come to uh an agreement we'll see
00:08:51.800 uh speaking of schools we've got a good story up on a uh social worker at a calgary catholic school
00:08:58.160 who uh social media is filled with vile anti-semitism uh things like death to the idf and
00:09:06.180 all that sort of good stuff so she has been currently uh she's put on leave from the school
00:09:11.240 while they investigate so see what happens there uh you remember the trans rapist down in ontario 0.97
00:09:18.700 uh allegedly raped that poor little uh girl he's in court today for his bail hearing uh hundreds and
00:09:27.340 hundreds of people outside the courtroom uh and protesting the uh uh the bail conditions in
00:09:35.420 canada and all that sort of stuff so i gotta think they're not gonna let him out i would think in this
00:09:40.260 case i mean nothing seems to surprise anymore but that's one of the ones they'll kind of realize
00:09:44.140 you know they should realize for the fact that this is man is a potentially dangerous monster
00:09:49.020 and might harm somebody but if not that reason then at least realize yes there's hundreds of
00:09:53.240 people out there and there's hundreds of thousands watching this who are going to lose it if that
00:09:56.800 monster is released exactly uh maybe uh let him on bail and let him walk out into the crowd see what
00:10:01.960 happens yeah that might take care of things one way or one way or the other uh speaking of bail uh
00:10:07.540 carney uh it was in edmonton for a full caucus meeting today and he announced that
00:10:12.120 the liberals will be bringing in law to make bail harder to get so we'll uh we'll see what happens
00:10:17.880 there uh so yeah lots of other stuff and haven't even mentioned poland i mean what are the russians
00:10:24.520 doing yeah it's either a huge mistake or they're just sort of probing the nato defenses well i was
00:10:30.840 talking nigel about it he said you know why is anybody really shocked though with i mean russian 0.84
00:10:34.280 technology making mistakes potentially i mean you know the whole soviet union couldn't even make a
00:10:39.000 functional alarm clock during their time on the go so maybe it was an error i mean they can't even
00:10:43.320 beat the ukraine why are they trying to provoke nato yeah well we don't need this escalation i i don't
00:10:48.840 know it's it's not a peaceful world right now no and we'll obviously keep an eye on the israel
00:10:54.360 situation with the uh the bombing of qatar yesterday so yeah i didn't shed too many tears no unfortunately
00:11:02.040 it only seemed to have killed the son of somebody so didn't get them yeah well get them eventually
00:11:08.520 they'll get them eventually so yeah that's it fun and games in the newsroom cory right on well lots
00:11:13.800 on the go and i see lots of we're waiting on yeah the strike and conference and everything else so
00:11:18.280 folks should tune in uh keep watching the western standard site as you get all those updates absolutely

00:11:43.720 be sure keep on the western standard get your news as it comes up there's not many newsrooms left
00:11:50.200 anymore guys and the reason we can do it so i gotta nag you but hey we gotta pay the bills 0.86
00:11:54.360 is because you've subscribed it's ten dollars a month just like an old newspaper subscription

00:12:03.480 conference keeps dave in there keeps me doing these shows so if you've already subscribed again thank you

00:12:13.400 guys uh you know get the bulk buy it's a hundred dollars for a year it's a good deal and you don't have
00:12:18.680 to throw it an old newspaper anymore like you used to have to i see some of the comments somebody was
00:12:22.920 asking you about my uh my charges for doing that video on the the sixica reserve uh yeah that's gone
00:12:30.360 on just for an update on it i guess my court dates october 16th i might have mentioned that before
00:12:35.160 uh to my knowledge they haven't even filed discovery yet though they were supposed to weeks ago
00:12:40.120 it's probably gonna get tossed out but who knows in the courts and everything else but you know me i'm
00:12:44.200 stubborn and so on and i will be doing more videos on more reserves because it's my right and it's our
00:12:49.960 land so get over it keep firing the trespassing charges at me for driving on highways i'll just
00:12:54.760 keep doing it but i will update you on something else is uh new yeah um see another commenter saying
00:13:01.320 why is a sylvan lake principle uh not relieved i i'm meaning yeah i'm guessing you mean like like
00:13:06.200 fired or set aside uh because yeah there's a whole battle there i'm going to talk a little bit
00:13:10.520 out about that after i've uh talked to mr bolton actually there's quite a scene going on in sylvan
00:13:15.400 lake the western standard kind of broke that this is all started over the firing of a football coach
00:13:20.520 a volunteer one because on his personal social media he didn't toe the trans line and it turns out the
00:13:27.240 the principal of that sylvan lake school is as so many in the education system a woke lunatic 0.84
00:13:34.040 and uh this battle is going on now that we got parents and students and the the athletes who are on the
00:13:39.160 team pushing back trying to get their beloved coach back the principal's been intimidating and
00:13:43.880 pressuring people and pushing back there was a teacher sending emails to students too saying
00:13:47.800 shut up on this issue so this is still unfolding and the standard's going to be following that closely
00:13:53.080 uh they just won't back off and it's sylvan lake for those who don't know alberta this is not good
00:14:01.800 woke territory this principal i got a feeling her tenure might not be terribly long at that school i mean
00:14:07.560 the way it works she'll just get transferred to a school elsewhere i think but taking a stance on 0.69
00:14:12.520 this one i don't believe is going to work out well for her career as it goes but it's time to have it
00:14:17.400 out to some of these schools it's time for the parents to speak up the students to speak up because
00:14:20.760 it's getting insane and uh i'll rant a little more about that a little later let's bring in somebody
00:14:25.960 who's mostly sane anyways and he's john bolton i love your videos john it's always something to look
00:14:33.800 forward to you you're covering the issues and uh vocal out there so so thanks for coming on to
00:14:39.400 talk to us today it's my it's my pleasure can you hear me okay i do you're coming in great this time
00:14:45.720 super we we seem to be kind of cursed i was worried something might happen to you you know before but
00:14:51.320 everything looks great well i bought a new computer so we're looking good cory it's great
00:14:55.160 great to talk to you i'm so appreciative of what you do so thank you so much for having me on i do
00:14:59.560 appreciate it great well it's good timing you really watch those issues closely and uh uh there's
00:15:05.400 always something going on but we've got you know parliament resuming next week uh our our collection
00:15:12.600 of clowns they're they're actually uh the liberals are in alberta right now of all places there must
00:15:16.840 be some some good high security to avoid that yeah the the rotten fruit being thrown their way and
00:15:22.760 whatnot yeah uh you know i guess i'll just get you to kind of lay it out what do you think we got to
00:15:28.200 look forward to as the parliament opens this year well you sent me a text message a few days back and
00:15:33.080 said you wanted to talk about parliament and i started thinking about what was coming up i think
00:15:36.680 there are a few things well a lot of things that conservatives aren't going to like but i was
00:15:40.760 wondering what really had changed uh since the beginning of the year i mean pauliev certainly has
00:15:46.120 a different riding now he's in battle river crowfoot um he'll actually be in parliament it'll be in
00:15:51.720 question period with mark carney which should be interesting because i don't think there are
00:15:54.840 too many people better than pure pauliev when it comes to um uh when it comes to question period
00:16:00.920 pauliev is one of the best at that but and and of course he'll be able to bring up tariffs and maybe
00:16:05.400 the pipelines which you've discussed as well but i don't think a hell of a lot has changed and that's
00:16:09.800 the sad thing about this we had an election on april 28th carney was named the prime minister
00:16:15.480 month and a half or so before that but pauliev is going to bring up the same things that are
00:16:19.320 plaguing canadians right now cost of living food prices crime car theft the price of homes young
00:16:25.480 people can never own a home homelessness food lines immigration levels temporary foreign workers these 1.00
00:16:31.080 are the things that are going to be discussed which are basically the same things he was discussing in
00:16:35.320 the house of commons you could probably go back and download a youtube video of him the last time he
00:16:39.960 was in parliament and questioned period with justin trudeau put it on ad infinitum and it would be
00:16:45.320 exactly the same nonsense we're dealing with right now and it's just a sad state of affairs here in
00:16:50.360 canada and just think about it they're going back into parliament and in the whole year i think
00:16:54.920 parliament's going to be sitting for 73 days or something like that at the 365 it's disgraceful
00:17:01.080 yeah so looking kind of from the other side i mean and we can beat on the liberals and we certainly will
00:17:05.960 but i'm wondering if as you said you know peer pauliev is very effective as an opposition leader and
00:17:12.040 you know really a pit bull in the house of commons but that didn't pay off when the election finally
00:17:17.480 came around do you think maybe they're going to be trying to take a bit of a different tone with him
00:17:22.280 in the house i mean he's certainly going to be on their case there's no getting around that
00:17:25.800 but maybe coupling a bit of the opposition and trying to look more like a government in waiting
00:17:30.680 rather than an effective opposition now a little more of okay this is what you're doing wrong but i
00:17:35.240 think they got to propose a little more well this is what you got to do to do it right i don't know
00:17:39.000 that he didn't do that during the election campaign you know it's it's you go online and
00:17:44.280 you hear the keyboard workers complaining that conservatives are saying carney just basically
00:17:48.440 stole everything pauliev came up with whether it came from housing or crime he had solutions to these
00:17:53.880 problems and being the leader of the opposition that's his job i mean obviously he's going to find
00:17:59.240 well he's going to be critical of the government so how does he change the way people feel about him
00:18:06.920 i i was thinking about this as well when you talked about parliament cory i think more people
00:18:13.720 voted for pier polia than voted for mark carney in the last election um because people voted for
00:18:20.120 pier polia a lot of people voted for mark carney but they voted against donald trump so i think he
00:18:26.200 has to keep on this on the straight and narrow the way he was going before because he didn't lose a 20
00:18:32.840 lead he lost you know a lot of the seats came from maybe the block of acquire the ndp the ndp only have
00:18:37.880 his seven seven seats right now so i think pure polia continues where he's going and i think
00:18:43.080 eventually people are going to catch on that things aren't going so well in canada i think hard times
00:18:47.320 are ahead for canadians real hard yeah well that's part of it i mean uh polia was characterized and
00:18:53.400 framed as such and it was difficult to break out of that i remember watching it through the campaign
00:18:57.160 people saying he's got no policy on this well no here's a link there you go there's an extended policy on
00:19:01.480 it he's got no policy on that well no here it is but it we got an issue with legacy media that won't
00:19:06.760 dig a little farther on some of these things too so he he has a harder time cutting through
00:19:12.440 one of the areas that i would imagine i mean it just smells like we're moving towards a disastrous
00:19:17.400 budget i mean the the absurdity of carney saying we've got an austerity budget with investment coming
00:19:23.640 ahead of us what on earth does that mean says we're going to save money and spend money at the same
00:19:27.320 time we're going to suck and blow uh how bad is this going to be because it's looking pretty bleak
00:19:32.600 well he he's i think he's changed his tune a little bit but he said spend less invest more he actually
00:19:37.240 put out some pretty um slick videos on that during the election campaign and everybody just said spending
00:19:42.680 less investing more means spending more money i i think at this point with the way the economy's
00:19:49.320 going right now where we're seeing it already he talked last week about spending billions of
00:19:53.720 dollars for more people on ei we're going to see more people on ei they're going to be on ei longer
00:19:58.760 and the only way to get out of this is to continue to as um church bernard shaw said the politician
00:20:03.960 that robs peter to pay paul will always have a friend in paul so he's going to continue to spend
00:20:08.440 lots of money and spread it around he gave what 370 million dollars to canola um just last week and
00:20:14.760 this is what you're going to see um it's going to be more deficit spending i i think 92 billion
00:20:19.880 dollars was the the suggestion for a deficit this year for the for the for canada it it could be
00:20:26.360 well over 100 billion dollars now that things are going really going south in the country well so i
00:20:32.040 mean in the part with the austerity you know he has put down orders saying he's expecting departments
00:20:37.080 to shave and cut the reality is it's the civil service it's massive it's bloated it's it's our largest
00:20:43.160 expenditure do you think the currently government's going to find the courage to cut that i mean
00:20:49.080 they're running out of options well if he cuts at 40 percent maybe because that's what it grew
00:20:54.440 since 2015 but if he doesn't cut it 40 well here's the thing they they grew the government by 40 percent
00:21:01.800 and and they spent tens of billions of dollars to hire other people to do work for the government
00:21:07.560 that the 40 extra 40 couldn't do unless he cuts at 40 we're going nowhere here i mean this is ridiculous
00:21:14.600 and i mean are your services any better canadians they're not but government always grows um it grew
00:21:20.600 through the pandemic it grows all the time while the rest of us we languish with the cost of living
00:21:26.520 and all the things that pure poly is going to bring up in the upcoming government no polio he's not going
00:21:32.840 to do what he needs to do cory he's not going to do what he needs to do no no yeah and that's concerning
00:21:37.320 because i mean you know if you know just basic economics we're going to see a more devaluation
00:21:42.920 of our currency we're going to see more economic slow down we're going to feel pressures our cost
00:21:47.400 of living is going to go up unemployment is looking bad uh one thing they've always relied on or kind
00:21:53.080 of used as a crutch was mass immigration to keep the gdp from dropping into recession levels that's really
00:21:58.920 the only reason that hadn't happened during trudeau's tenure but now it's even showing a decline i think
00:22:04.040 i think it was 1.6 decline in our general gdp another big issue that's going to be hitting
00:22:09.400 parliament is immigration uh they have capped some things they've reduced some of the student uh
00:22:15.160 immigrants but are they going to take on the big uh the big ones you know the the tfw's the the 1.00
00:22:21.480 permanent residents or the illegals the refugees so much i mean it's another loaded issue that they
00:22:26.120 talk a big game but they don't seem to do much on well i think paul i have i mentioned that he's
00:22:29.880 going to talk about that and they'll do what they normally do when it comes to conservatives
00:22:33.320 talking about immigration they'll use the r word and it ends with ist and that's what's going to
00:22:37.880 happen here i think he's talked about what is it five percent per capita or something like that for
00:22:42.760 immigration that's a lot of people it used to be a little over three percent per capita and now it's
00:22:47.640 over five i think it's seven right now and he wants to bring it down to five he's not going to
00:22:51.160 really reduce the numbers at all i like what paulieff says we need some negative immigration for a while
00:22:56.360 and basically cut off the temporary foreign workers calgary nose hill mp michelle remple garner has
00:23:02.040 talked about that and she's on that like a dog on a bone but we need to we need to put people to
00:23:06.360 work we've got fourteen point six percent um youth unemployment right now in this country that's crazy
00:23:12.120 that's nuts yeah and i mean when people can't get jobs when they can't pay the bills ideology starts
00:23:18.440 to go out the window and i mean two things i think that really turn people on a government
00:23:23.480 two things people always expect of a government no matter whether you're left or right you want to feel
00:23:27.640 safe and you want to be able to pay the bills and you know bail reform okay that's one thing but we
00:23:33.000 need a heck of a lot more than that we've got some crazy stuff going on in crime with repeat criminals
00:23:38.120 being released uh i got a feeling he's going to need to come up with a crime reform bill more than
00:23:43.320 just trying to tweak bail coming into this year or he's going to face some problems well and the the
00:23:49.400 answer to the liberals when it comes to crime is to take guns away from law-abiding citizens that's 0.66
00:23:54.520 generally what they do um i i who's who's the name what's the name of the justice minister i've
00:24:00.920 forgotten his name now but fraser yeah fraser yeah sean fraser who has been an absolute nightmare in
00:24:05.960 any of the portfolios he's hell had has basically um pooh-poohed anything balieff says about this
00:24:13.240 balieff does have solutions to this problem but the liberals won't do what needs to be done as things
00:24:17.960 get worse right across the country yeah well but i mean that blew up in a pr mess i mean the timing uh
00:24:24.040 you know fraser called it uh poly of pushing the wild west and so on and then that weekend
00:24:29.080 there were several horrific violent crimes that uh perhaps could have been stopped had there been
00:24:34.920 somebody capable and willing to defend themselves so i i think more citizens are going to just take
00:24:40.360 it upon themselves to defend themselves no matter what the law says because it doesn't matter when
00:24:43.720 your family's at risk and i was talking about this with my wife the other day and it's a sad thing to
00:24:48.280 save when it comes to basically stand your ground uh law inside your own house nobody's going to be
00:24:52.600 checking a a box to figure out if they're you know using the right proportional proportional
00:24:58.440 when it comes to somebody in your home but i guess the only thing you can do at this point is somebody's
00:25:02.280 in your home and you don't want to go to jail for defending yourself in your home is to kill the guy
00:25:06.920 because dead men tell no tales folks folks you know i mean i thought he was going to kill me so
00:25:11.160 that's what i did but i mean that is that where we are in our country right now that we can't defend
00:25:15.160 ourselves in our own in our own homes i mean i'm beating the person to win it within an inch of their
00:25:19.480 lives if they're threatening my wife in this house that's what i'm doing and i think that's what
00:25:22.680 most canadians are going to do and who cares about what happens after that but that's where we are in
00:25:27.240 our country right now it's it's absurd really is yeah and i mean i think most sane people i mean we
00:25:33.480 never want to be in that situation in the first place and and we would as far as we could tell in
00:25:38.200 the heat of a moment do what minimum required to make your household safe but when you don't know the
00:25:43.160 intent of the intruder that minimum required could be pretty violent unfortunately uh you know these
00:25:50.040 discussions are going to keep happening every time one of these situations come up though i i got a
00:25:54.040 feeling that liberals can't hide from this one forever because it really grabs the public interest
00:25:58.360 when these things happen and they seem to come in trends you know or maybe the media is more inclined to
00:26:02.280 watch for them once we see it getting hotter and we're going to speak to it cory there's not a lot
00:26:06.680 of things i mean i i believe that um the government that governs least is best i mean that's basically
00:26:12.360 what ronald reagan said but one of the things that government i expect to do is to protect us
00:26:17.480 security and we're not doing a very good job at that are we i mean so i certainly there has to be
00:26:23.000 some changes and we'll see what happens and but again that'll be something as i mentioned crime will
00:26:27.240 be something that paulia brings up in question period it'll be interesting to see how uh carney hums and
00:26:32.120 hawes his way through that when that comes up yeah he's the that new mr dithers on so many things
00:26:38.120 another issue carney's got to face coming up and it's definitely brewing is unity uh you and i both
00:26:43.640 speak quite a bit on the uh you know budding independence movement in alberta but something
00:26:47.080 that's really been on a slow boil in quebec people are kind of been forgetting about that even since the
00:26:51.640 90s but the pq is leading in quebec and they are platforming on open secessionism their platform on uh
00:26:58.280 holding another referendum this could be quite something coming up next year it could be you
00:27:03.480 know i've actually heard that um the head of the parti quebecois is in alberta over the next couple
00:27:10.120 of days and might be meeting with some people with the independence movement out here i'm not quite
00:27:14.680 sure what they're going to be talking about um maybe they're trying to get some tips on how to get out
00:27:19.400 of canada when it comes to quebec at this point i don't know um that our independence movement is going
00:27:24.280 to be getting advice from quebec because we don't much like quebec here in alberta because so much
00:27:28.360 of our money goes there but yeah that canada could be coming apart at the seams right now
00:27:33.640 there's all this talk about team canada and how we have to stick together but i really believe corey
00:27:40.200 that in order to be a team you have to have common goals and how much does alberta have in common with
00:27:47.080 quebec now how much does alberta have in common with bc or manitoba or the east coast not a lot i think
00:27:53.320 we have a lot in common with saskatchewan so there's no team canada right now and if alberta
00:27:59.080 decides to leave it won't be long before the country just falls apart at the seams and it's
00:28:03.560 really an interesting time right now and as i've said number a number of times canada's demise
00:28:08.840 is alberta's rise and i believe that well absolutely i mean i i personally feel uh in
00:28:14.840 conrad black wrote on that recently kind of you know the nation would just fall apart like dominoes if
00:28:19.320 if alberta pulled out i think if any province did uh one commonality between alberta and quebec even
00:28:25.400 if we have different interests generally is a a distrust and a dislike of the central government in
00:28:29.960 ottawa yeah so if if if we can find that common ground and saying well if we can get uh uh the
00:28:35.960 government out of our faces on both ends of the country uh i think actually there could be some
00:28:40.600 interesting alliances coming together out of that well i have to see what happens again i know that some
00:28:45.080 people in the independence movement are talking to mr plamondon i believe is his name i think he's
00:28:49.480 here over the next couple of days so that'll be interesting to find out what happens i'd love to
00:28:53.400 be a fly on the wall in that like i'd like i'd like to be a fly on the wall i believe danielle smith
00:28:57.560 is meeting with mark carney later this afternoon boy i'd like to hear what they're talking about today
00:29:02.040 after the way you opened your show today well that's it and and premier smith has put out her what nine
00:29:08.200 demands i believe it was some months ago and gave kind of a six month deadline which we're pretty
00:29:12.360 close to right on the six month mark now yeah yeah within a week i think within a week she's gonna
00:29:17.880 start looking quite weak if carney doesn't act on some of those things and she doesn't do something 0.76
00:29:24.040 further towards it i mean i'm just speculating now i don't believe premier smith is uh a separatist but
00:29:32.280 i think she wants to see a referendum held that would dominate the the new scroll for a year it would 0.99
00:29:39.640 bring that issue to a four and even if she's not an independent supporter i mean i'm just talking
00:29:44.280 politically and i'm purely speculating it would be gold for her if we came out and had an independence 1.00
00:29:49.000 referendum and 40 of albertans say they want to go because boy the leverage she would have the day
00:29:53.160 after that to say how this we've got to stop it from turning to 50 this is what you guys have to do
00:29:59.720 yeah and again kind of the way quebec's been you know using leaving for many years to get what they
00:30:06.760 want as well i think that's what she's been trying to do you have to hand it to the liberals i have to
00:30:10.360 say it they expertly denied alberta pipeline through their consensus you know you're never
00:30:16.360 going to get a consensus when it comes to the provinces you're never going to get a consensus
00:30:19.960 when it comes to aboriginals here he waited out the clock on daniel smith and her demands and you
00:30:25.560 mentioned it in your opening here that who's going to invest in this province if all of those laws are
00:30:30.280 in place and then he created a law around the laws bill c5 so he could decide what gets built in the
00:30:36.120 country and decide what gets done so um they played it out really well i mean it's pretty smart what
00:30:43.000 he's done here because he can you know just basically deny that he had anything to do with
00:30:46.520 this but i've been i was thinking about this when i saw peer polyev's tweet this morning and they
00:30:50.760 talked about no pipelines being in the the major projects and then the cbc actually wrote a story
00:30:57.080 on it as well and i'm asking danielle smith call a referendum call a referendum for goodness sakes premier 1.00
00:31:03.320 i'm concerned i don't want to get too much into this whether you want to go here but i'm concerned
00:31:07.480 we're going to get denied with our question in october because this has gone to the courts and
00:31:11.320 what are we going to do when that happens i think the premier needs to call a referendum i would suggest
00:31:16.040 we do it on july 2nd next year i think it's a tuesday or i think it's a tuesday maybe a thursday
00:31:20.840 the day after canada day that way we can declare our independence the day after canada day and every
00:31:26.840 year we can celebrate the fact that canada has is is basically broken up the day after their their
00:31:34.120 their day their big day every year because i think we need a referendum here and i think she needs to 1.00
00:31:38.440 call it and not wait for all the signatures and all that kind of stuff i want to see a referendum called
00:31:44.040 i do because we're not going to get we want you we're not going to get a pipeline like you said in
00:31:47.720 your opening or it's not going to happen and i'm with you and thought as an individual but i also look
00:31:53.000 at things as a guy who you know worked in the political parties for quite some time and seeing
00:31:56.520 some of the tactics that they said i think she wants it but she doesn't want to look like it's
00:31:59.960 on her hand so her preference would be that the courts allow the petitioning to happen and she'll 1.00
00:32:04.520 say well the citizens did it but if the courts won't allow that then it's time for her to facilitate 0.95
00:32:09.800 the referendum and that's it as you said she's gonna call it i'm looking at the calendar because i
00:32:14.120 believe we're just a little over two years away from an election so if it gets turned down which i
00:32:19.400 think is a perfectly reasonable question that the app has put together if it gets turned down in
00:32:25.160 october then we start this process all over again and we could be going within a few months of an
00:32:30.120 election maybe into a referendum and i don't know that she wants to do that if she could do a referendum 1.00
00:32:35.160 say early in the middle of next year at least she's got a buffer period between maybe a no vote and
00:32:42.200 they they won't be able to use that against her as the election comes in i believe october 2027 so
00:32:46.920 i'm just looking at it from from that because she needs a win right now she really needs a win 1.00
00:32:51.320 no and i think she'd want to see it sooner rather than later and not wanting it overlapping with it
00:32:55.480 with her own campaign yeah the other thing will be interesting it's got to be running through the 0.97
00:32:59.480 judge's mind a little bit if he rules against the referendum he's also signaling to quebec that
00:33:04.440 they're not allowed to go either and i i that you know they don't care about snubbing alberta 0.56
00:33:09.480 but they think twice when it comes to telling quebec and i don't think quebec will respond very well to
00:33:13.400 that either no i don't think so you know it's funny because i don't know that i mentioned this
00:33:17.720 to you back in 95 i was living in cornwall ontario which is in eastern ontario an hour from ottawa
00:33:23.160 hour from montreal and i actually went um i went to the big get together in downtown montreal back then
00:33:30.680 just prior to the referendum then which was very very close i remember watching it that night
00:33:35.800 i would never do that today um i would i would i don't i don't care if quebec goes at this point
00:33:41.880 but um but yeah i think i don't think that they would i don't think quebec would even care what
00:33:47.080 the federal government says they do what they want they get what they want because they've had this
00:33:50.760 leverage over the government for for so long and of course they're vote rich out there we're not vote
00:33:55.400 rich out here in alberta yeah so i mean we've got to take on more of their what you're going to do about
00:34:00.680 it attitude well the time went quick because there is a lot to cover i mean as the session's coming
00:34:05.320 hopefully we can uh touch base again you know maybe as the session gets rolling and then
00:34:09.480 dig into this a little more uh before i let you go though as i said your youtube channel is fantastic
00:34:15.240 i love the hat there and and of course your well-known big blue mug oh we got app going on
00:34:21.000 as well we don't have to wonder where you're coming from where can people keep up with your
00:34:26.760 stuff you got regular content coming out all the time well if they go to if they go to youtube and
00:34:31.160 they put at john bolton ab they'll find me right on all right well thank you very much for coming on
00:34:38.840 today no disasters no problems we got it through perfectly and it was excellent i was looking
00:34:43.000 forward to the conversation so uh i look forward to more of your your commentary and hope we can
00:34:47.240 talk again soon thanks for inviting me cory you have a great day go to cory's youtube channel if
00:34:52.120 you're not sure about what's going on when it comes to the independence movement out here because
00:34:56.360 it's just a wealth of knowledge it really is yeah well we both like going on on that one all right
00:35:01.880 thank you again soon yeah bye-bye bye so yeah one more time you guys uh john bolton you ab
00:35:07.960 look it up there on on youtube and he's on x and other areas and everything but uh good commentary
00:35:12.840 and regular content and he gets up in an ungodly early hour in the morning which is good though
00:35:17.480 because you can get that content first thing in the morning and really get some up to date
00:35:21.720 up to date stuff to start your day but yeah these justice issues just keep piling up you know and
00:35:27.080 talking about the self-defense thing and things like that like i'm not some tough guy i see some
00:35:30.840 of those debates you know people coming oh you're just some tough talking internet guy you know no i'm
00:35:35.080 not and and that's the difference i'm not some mma fighter or something if some guy breaks into my
00:35:40.360 house i'm not going to try and put him in a headlock and restrain him i i can't i'm i mean i'm not a
00:35:46.360 total 98 pound weakling but i'm also not capable of taking on some crazed tattoo meth loaded intruder 0.99
00:35:53.880 so chances are i i'll take advantage of whatever household things i may have to to make sure my
00:36:00.440 home is safe and that might be a what is determined later to be above and beyond which was supposed to
00:36:06.040 be used i don't know and we shouldn't have to try and make those decisions in a heartbeat i mean i live
00:36:10.360 on an acreage i live rural and i was very active during the eddie maurice situation where he got
00:36:15.800 charged for defending his his child in his house with a 22 and the police response times in our
00:36:22.040 area on average 40 minutes i can't sit in my house for 40 minutes whilst there's an invader in there
00:36:29.160 and hope that this invader just wants to steal a few things and and you know not rape and kill us
00:36:36.120 so more and more people are making these decisions are being forced to make these decisions
00:36:41.800 because we're letting repeat dangerous horrific criminals out when we really shouldn't be
00:36:48.360 here's an interesting one and you know i'll give a positive out to somebody on a negative issue
00:36:53.160 the edmonton police are have made put out a letter and they're objecting openly the police usually stay
00:36:59.320 out of the courts you know like as far as is telling them what to do uh but there's a plea deal for
00:37:04.360 a woman who murdered it it looks like an eight-year-old girl this was the stepmother of the
00:37:09.720 eight-year-old girl and the edmonton police service has said that uh if this plea agreement goes through
00:37:16.040 it looks like uh this this woman would only get eight years or six years i think it is for for 1.00
00:37:21.480 murdering this this little girl and uh the police have said it would be a miscarriage of justice and
00:37:26.440 they're asking for provincial intervention uh on top of that there were four men charged with
00:37:32.680 the accessory and murder and indignity human remains so after they murdered the little girl
00:37:36.840 they uh allegedly uh put her in a hockey bag and took her down to the samson louisville reserve 0.95
00:37:43.720 uh this is one of the things that keeps coming down to that people are afraid to talk about too
00:37:48.440 is the indigenous factor we've got to face that sensitive
00:37:52.520 but real issue head-on particularly with these kids with kids in general
00:37:58.760 we had a case in alberta recently again two indigenous parents they boiled their toddler to 1.00
00:38:05.000 death starved it tortured it uh they referred to this toddler as a meal ticket in their texts that went
00:38:14.200 before the courts they had lost a child multiple times you know to social services but they keep giving
00:38:20.040 the child back because everybody's still worked up over the 60s scoop you know there was the 60s scoop
00:38:27.240 when a lot of social services came in and seized children from first nations families but the
00:38:33.000 problem was they were living in conditions where the children were at terrible risk whether from
00:38:37.000 substance abuse other social problems trouble in general but it's made the government flip all the
00:38:43.240 way over the other way where they will bend over backwards to put an indigenous child back in the hands 0.98
00:38:48.040 of the family no matter how dangerous that family may be uh liberal senator paula simons was a journalist
00:38:55.240 that was one of her main stories she covered was uh it's referred to because they don't give the 0.58
00:39:01.800 identities baby serenity again a first nations child who was constantly abused this poor little girl
00:39:08.120 and uh they just kept giving the girl back to family members and she was abused and finally killed and
00:39:13.480 murdered terribly and uh the charges that came to the the guardians who did that to her got five-year
00:39:20.680 penalty you know these ones that boiled their child to death six-year sentence they're going to be out 0.68
00:39:27.080 soon and they're young so they'll be able to breed again and torture another child to death again
00:39:31.720 guys making exceptions in these indigenous cases it's got to stop this case of uh dave mentioned it
00:39:40.040 earlier the bail hearing for that child rapist out in eastern canada uh he also if his people were
00:39:46.920 wondering well that that guy raped a 12 year old as well why was he released after such a little time
00:39:50.760 well you also look he's not just claiming to be trans to trying to get into a woman's prison
00:39:54.760 he's indigenous you're gonna look up gladu rulings uh it's it's where the judges are instructed to
00:40:01.800 give light sentences to indigenous offenders now i don't want to turn the discussion to saying
00:40:06.920 that indigenous people are inherently violent or criminal no no the discussion's a lot bigger than
00:40:13.000 that it's not that it's that we've got this social circumstance that we created in canada with these
00:40:18.280 reserves where we've segregated people based on race and have them sitting as complete dependence on
00:40:23.400 the state in socioeconomic ghettos and they turn out that way it doesn't matter which race you take any
00:40:30.760 race and stick them in those circumstances and you're going to have very very troubled people coming out of it
00:40:37.000 and we're really paying for that everybody is everybody's losing there's no winner in this
00:40:43.160 but we got to have some blunt speaking because these cases keep coming up again and again and again
00:40:49.480 and that common denominator keeps coming up so no i'm not looking at faulting indigenous people i'm
00:40:54.360 faulting our policies regarding indigenous people they're failing catastrophically in the worst possible
00:41:01.400 ways children are literally paying the price being murdered raped and tortured to death by indigenous 1.00
00:41:08.200 offenders and no not all indigenous people i know that people as even john talked about their dr word
00:41:14.200 is going to come out no it's it but you got to face some realities too because these aren't happening
00:41:19.640 in other identifiable cultural groups within canada so let's look at the bottom
00:41:24.280 of the problem and it's our system it's this this stupidity this ridiculousness this thinking that 0.73
00:41:29.960 apartheid can work and it doesn't and this is what we see is these these awful awful cases and children 1.00
00:41:37.240 just suffering i've said it before if i really actually because i get accused of that when i go out
00:41:42.680 and video reserves and show the conditions and when i talk about these things i write calls you hate
00:41:47.640 indigenous people no i don't if i really hated indigenous people and wanted to wish the worst 0.99
00:41:53.000 honor the worst possible fate i could think of it would be to keep them under the current system
00:41:57.480 that's the worst possible thing i could do to those people there no i'm railing against the system
00:42:04.360 because i do care because i'm sick of watching human waste like this good people in impossible
00:42:11.320 circumstances in isolated areas fed a bunch of crap and then turning out like this in in with crime
00:42:20.280 health issues low education you name it by every single measure it's failing yet yet our system can't
00:42:27.720 seem to admit it uh so yeah i was talking again a bit before i'll kind of turn the page a bit away from
00:42:34.120 that uh we were talking about and you're speaking of trans i mean another issue a hot button people are
00:42:39.960 terrified of and uh that that was the whole thing going on in sylvan lake was a uh a teacher
00:42:49.640 or a volunteer football coach like i said uh wrote on his personal thing that he doesn't support
00:42:55.720 some of the trans ideology and things i mean that's the stuff they're going after daniel smith
00:42:59.720 for right now too so he got fired this principle the battle is going on i'm kind of happy for it in
00:43:03.960 a sense i feel for the kids who are caught in the middle who just want to play football
00:43:07.160 but we need to have it out on some of these things let's have it out then uh the thing that
00:43:13.480 the coach really got in trouble for i guess was a tick tock video of his own on his personal thing
00:43:17.000 where he said boys have penises girls have vaginas if you remember from an old kindergarten cop i think 0.99
00:43:22.200 it was there was a kid who said that in a movie with arnold schwartz and a few years ago that statement
00:43:26.680 alone is enough to get you fired that statement of biological reality will get you fired
00:43:34.600 the mass media you know the mainstream media the legacy media the way they're on again the smith
00:43:41.960 government we're talking education this whole mess one of the things that she's brought into is 1.00
00:43:46.520 basically saying boys can't play in the girls sports and we unfortunately due to activists and
00:43:51.800 idiots we have to now make them a test so we can prove that they're not trying to sneak through 1.00
00:43:57.320 whose fault is that it's not an unreasonable request i watched a woman get the hell beat out of 1.00
00:44:01.800 her by a man and they called it an olympic sport the other year it was disgusting there are 0.64
00:44:07.800 physiological differences realities that's why the sexes have been separated in physical sports since 0.99
00:44:14.520 sports began and now we're trying to fight reality where to the point where a person can be fired for
00:44:21.880 saying the reality that boys have penises and girls have vaginas what world are we getting into so
00:44:28.040 yes we need these fights we need them to break out we need these unions to be taken on so it looks
00:44:31.960 like the teachers are going on strike in alberta yeah they're offered a 12 raise offered to get 3 000
00:44:36.760 more teachers again yes as dave said they have a hard job but let's face it guys they got a gold-plated
00:44:42.440 pension they get three months off a year when you add it all up together they get more sick days and
00:44:46.840 benefits than anybody can ever dream of so what does it take when's it enough well i it's time for
00:44:57.720 a voucher system it's time to let parents choose it's time to have a variety of educational options
00:45:02.520 more of them i want to see more charter schools i want to see more private schools and you know what
00:45:10.040 with the competition and a voucher system the public schools won't go away they won't turn into ghettos 1.00
00:45:14.360 they'll improve because they'll have to because they'll be competing for those dollars to get the
00:45:17.800 kids into them so let's have these fights guys thank you premier smith you don't do everything right
00:45:23.320 and everything perfectly but at least you're taking a stance on education you're not taking
00:45:27.080 the crap from a lot of things and you're not taking it from these teachers it sounds like at this point
00:45:30.840 because again it's time to stand them down quit having them hold parents for hostage
00:45:35.560 quit letting them facilitate this absurdity of trans ideology and having porn on the shelves and 1.00
00:45:43.800 have media call it a book ban when you try to get rid of it this is how nuts the world has gotten
00:45:47.880 premier smith might be many things but she's more sane than most of the the people out there right 1.00
00:45:53.480 now the activists the media and the rest so uh she's standing between them and your kids and i 0.60
00:45:59.080 i have nothing but appreciation for it all right well that's what i got today guys lots to go on
00:46:03.720 about there was a bit more but i think as as much as i can cover in my time slot so thank you all very
