00:00:00.000 So the thing is, as more people come here, they've created something central to European identity, Western identity,
00:00:10.460 is this idea of liberalism, is this idea of individualism.
00:00:13.980 People want to keep things abstract and fair to the individual.
00:00:16.940 But as we've imported more and more people here, that's just not how they think about things.
00:00:20.960 They're tribal, they're ethnic, they import this style of politics. 0.97
00:00:24.920 And as a result, you have heritage Canadians, white people who remain atomized. 0.94
00:00:28.840 we don't want to play that game and then we're just going to lose because democracy is inherently 0.93
00:00:33.640 inherently about collectives right it's about creating voting blocks in order to shift the
00:00:39.000 whether that's within political parties or within ethnic groups or whatnot in order to achieve power
00:00:43.080 through through democratic means and if you have one side that's saying no we're not going to work
00:00:46.920 together we're all going to be individuals and you have the other sides being we're going to
00:00:50.440 collectivize then we're just going to lose every single time
00:00:53.080 is canada a bicultural nation is that a contradiction in terms i asked daniel tyree
00:01:04.440 founder of the dominion society this question during an interview i recently did with him
00:01:09.320 behind me on parliament hill in ottawa ontario this is robert kreitschuk reporting for the
00:01:14.280 western standard okay i want to start with the easy thing first daniel what's your morning routine
00:01:20.520 what's my morning routine i get up and i tweet a bunch i post a bunch on social medias on all the
00:01:25.240 different platforms first thing in the morning get up i drink my coffee i work out and then i get to
00:01:29.400 work okay the workout that's what i want to hear about what does that look like uh it depends on
00:01:32.520 the day you know i do a kind of push pull legs circuit throughout the week uh so it depends on
00:01:37.880 the day but it's hitting all muscle groups building body putting the body under stress
00:01:42.280 first thing in the morning strong body strong mind is kind of where i come from so i totally relate
00:01:47.000 in case you folks can't tell now it's very virile so it's very evident okay now now let's get let's
00:01:52.280 define some terms are these terms synonymous and if not maybe you can define their parameters
00:01:58.120 what's ethnicity what's a nation what's a people what's a race do these terms overlap what do they
00:02:03.880 mean there's significant overlap the most important is nation and nation this is a term that's often
00:02:08.760 misused in the current zeitgeist it's confused with country state really a nation is a people
00:02:14.760 it's a people with a shared history culture language geography uh it's not uh we're not just
00:02:21.080 a a post-national economic zone we're not just an economy uh to be a canadian to be part of the
00:02:26.760 canadian nation is to be part of an intergenerational lineage stretching back to the earliest pioneers
00:02:31.880 that built this country from nothing so i think that's a very important term to understand yes
00:02:35.640 there's significant overlap with things like race and ethnicity really the the the word ethnicity
00:02:40.600 and the word nation come from very similar roots nation comes from the latin uh ethnicity comes
00:02:46.040 from the greek but both mean this this people with a shared uh history and culture which is really
00:02:51.000 uh what's most important and what what we're striving to preserve through our activism okay
00:02:55.560 so you're mentioning lineage bloodline shared heredity is there an aspect of biological
00:03:01.000 determinism that factors into this perspective that people of a particular nation that belong
00:03:08.440 to this people have unique physiological aspects that make them better or worse at being able to
00:03:17.080 manifest particular culture or values or ideas put another way is it fair to say that a people's
00:03:24.280 culture is sort of a behavioral expression of their ancestry yeah exactly i i do think that
00:03:30.840 culture institutions all these things are downstream from the from the people the the
00:03:35.800 The area we now know as Canada was very different when it was only populated with roving bands
00:03:40.520 of First Nations tribes fighting against each other.
00:03:42.900 It would have been very different if it was settled by the Spanish or the Japanese. 0.93
00:03:49.040 Canada is only the way that it is because it was settled by a unique group of Anglo
00:03:53.720 and French settlers that came together in order to create this new political organization
00:03:57.440 that we now call Canada.
00:03:58.780 You can't separate those two things and we see that transformation happening in real
00:04:01.880 power. As our people have been replaced, which is what's happening since the 70s, our birth
00:04:06.520 rates have been declining. And instead of increasing our domestic birth rates, instead 0.99
00:04:12.600 we've supplemented that with replacement migration. And as the population changes, we can see the
00:04:17.240 culture of Canada change. This is most obvious in areas of the country that have been completely
00:04:21.800 taken over by foreign ethnic groups. Areas like Richmond, BC and Markham, Ontario have been 1.00
00:04:27.000 completely colonized by the Chinese. Areas like Brampton and Surrey have been completely colonized 1.00
00:04:31.640 by by Indians and now these areas don't look like Canada anymore they look like foreign countries 0.99
00:04:36.840 the the buildings are changing the the languages are changing the way people dress in and and the
00:04:43.400 way that the the whole trust dynamic in the society has completely warped and I don't think
00:04:48.520 that's acceptable like I want to preserve Canada as a distinct nation within the globe I don't have
00:04:54.040 anything any problems with Indian culture Chinese culture but they have their own countries they
00:04:58.200 have their own homelands where they can express their own unique cultures i want to make sure
00:05:02.600 canada remains canada i mean for what it's worth i'll just share a couple of anecdotes that reinforce
00:05:07.240 daniel's position i've got friends that are foreigners i mean i grew up here in ottawa born
00:05:11.720 and raised it's inevitable and one friend who i was with she was with me several months ago here
00:05:17.160 in downtown and she said it doesn't feel like canada and she's remarking on the physiognomy
00:05:21.240 to basically the racial ethnic visual competition which includes dress and these other sorts of
00:05:25.320 things and some people who i won't name but are very very close to me remark on how when they're
00:05:30.440 in costco the one language they never hear is english yeah so clearly there's a dilution going
00:05:35.240 on uh eroding those linguistic ties that bind that provide cohesion okay okay and it's not to say
00:05:40.920 people can't integrate into that culture and in fact i think we had we had a functional immigration
00:05:46.120 policy for for years where people came from more similar countries to canada where we had a strong
00:05:51.000 sense of identity a strong demographic foundation that people would merge into but now with our new
00:05:57.000 kind of perspectives on multiculturalism with the levels of immigration now what we have is
00:06:01.320 ethnic enclaves there's no reason there's no reason for people to integrate there's people
00:06:05.480 can function within canadian society speaking foreign languages practicing foreign religions
00:06:09.800 foreign traditions it undermines uh what it means to be conadian so i think it's it's important that
00:06:14.760 we take a strong stance on that and preserve not not only economic interests through our immigration
00:06:19.400 program but but cultural interests as well okay uh what does it mean to be canadian insofar as
00:06:24.120 you can describe it what are the parameters of canadian culture well i mean uh culture is it can
00:06:29.160 be a difficult thing for people to understand i understand because it's like it's like you're a
00:06:32.440 fish in water it's hard to realize what surrounds you but as soon as you go to a foreign country
00:06:36.760 it becomes very clear what canadian culture is the our our unique uh our unique foods our unique
00:06:42.440 uh our unique traditions people people take these things uh for grantor but it becomes very
00:06:48.600 clear once you go to an area of canada that's now become dominated by foreigners what canadian
00:06:53.400 culture is uh i think there are a lot of care i think we can simplify things into the the
00:06:58.040 foundational principles of can the peace order and good governance i think there's all sorts of
00:07:01.880 qualities of of kindness of of uh of uh uh of punching above our weight of all these things
00:07:10.040 that are kind of foundational to the uh the canadian character but it really goes back to our
00:07:14.360 history and our geography and things that are passed on from parents to to children to to
00:07:19.960 grandchildren uh in those notions of of doing things the the one thing that's become quite
00:07:25.400 controversial nowadays is this idea of like high trust and low trust societies it's become a bit
00:07:30.040 of a buzzword but like in in canadian in western society we have a high trust culture we have
00:07:35.000 we'll have social supports and institutions and charities food banks that are there to serve
00:07:39.960 our needy but we just assume people won't take advantage of these things and now we have people 1.00
00:07:43.560 coming from the third world coming from india where they have very low trust cultures where 1.00
00:07:47.320 their whole idea is not is is to take advantage of systems to benefit yourself if you're not doing
00:07:52.520 that you're kind of sucker in these cultures and i understand where these people are coming from 0.96
00:07:56.600 but it's just not the way we do things here and now as we import more and more people from these 0.99
00:08:00.120 low trust cultures we see things like food banks being abused and overrun we see we see things 1.00
00:08:05.640 like this big osap scandal here in ontario where there's these indian residents are coming here and 1.00
00:08:10.600 they're they're finding ways to game the system more than half of uh osap tuition support going 0.98
00:08:15.960 to students in ontario in 2024 and 2025 went to went to just a few schools one by run by
00:08:21.560 one person who's clearly grifting off of the system to benefit himself this is not this is
00:08:26.280 not canadian culture and this is the inevitable result of just letting people come in as
00:08:30.840 interchangeable economic units from dissimilar cultures it transforms canada into into those
00:08:36.600 foreign countries you you import the third world you become the third world i'm going to add just
00:08:41.080 a little bit to this i do think it's even worse than you described because i think even if you 0.63
00:08:44.840 had a bunch of high trust cultures the fact that they can't communicate with each other i want to
00:08:49.240 get the language in a moment they don't speak the same language they can't trust each other because
00:08:53.320 they can't talk to each other yeah so if you have five different languages of cultures all high trust
00:08:57.880 they become low trust once they're coalesced or consolidated okay but that this is what you
00:09:02.760 didn't mention i asked you about culture you didn't mention language and this is where i
00:09:05.960 wanted to ask you about some things that you recently discussed is language a central component
00:09:12.360 of culture and ethnic cohesion yeah absolutely absolutely if we can't if we can't talk to each
00:09:16.920 other and we can't work together so it's it is a central part of you can see where i'm going with
00:09:21.880 this can't you so how can canada be a cohesive unit or a nation if it at its genesis is bi-national
00:09:31.400 bilingual uh bicultural whatever term you want he's bi-ethnic because again the french and the
00:09:37.400 english and all those people around there scottish irish they have different evolutionary histories
00:09:41.800 and i'll even put an asterisk beside the indigenous aboriginals native because they're
00:09:45.320 totally separate from that how is that not like a country that's born as a siamese twin 0.91
00:09:52.040 and totally corrupted in the way that a siamese twin would be dysfunctional physiologically yeah
00:09:56.680 I mean, these are some of the fundamental challenges of Canada.
00:10:02.020 There have always been tensions between the two founding peoples, the English and French. 0.95
00:10:06.360 It's not only that, it's Protestants and Catholics, which don't even neatly fall along those lines,
00:10:11.980 because a lot of the Irish settlers that were a large contingent of the founding people of Canada were Catholics,
00:10:17.140 but English-speaking, then you had French-speaking Catholics, and you had a huge base of Anglophone Protestants.
00:10:22.780 These are the basic problems of Canada, but I don't think we solve them by importing more and more people from different religions, from different languages. 0.95
00:10:30.960 We have enough challenges as it is in Canada. 0.99
00:10:33.640 There's so many divides, East and West, urban and rural, English and French.
00:10:37.900 These are the challenges that we have to overcome as the founding pact that is Canada. 1.00
00:10:42.960 And yes, it isn't easy, but we shouldn't make things more difficult by bringing in more and more foreign languages that only further complicates the situation. 0.93
00:10:49.720 in your framework of how we define canadian identity or the canadian nation
00:10:54.680 how can quebec or quebecers be a part of that when i don't want to speak for them i'm just a guy here
00:10:59.160 i live my life here i have some sense of it many of them do not view themselves as canadians so are
00:11:04.120 they part of a canadian culture uh or a canadian nation again choose the terms that you want yeah
00:11:09.480 absolutely in fact the the who we now call the quebecois are the original canadians they were
00:11:15.160 were that they were the first people that that brought this term canada that started calling
00:11:19.380 themselves canadien this term kebecois is a very recent development it's as part of this quiet
00:11:24.040 revolution this cultural revolution that happened throughout the 60s and 70s where where the where
00:11:29.340 quebecers really retrenched themselves into the province before that they conceived themselves
00:11:32.640 as a people that was not limited to quebec's borders there's people with french roots across
00:11:36.980 this country i was born and raised in ontario but my my ethnic roots are french canadian as well
00:11:42.960 and there's people like that all over the country.
00:11:46.260 So, yes, absolutely, the Quebecois are Canadian, are Canadien,
00:11:51.980 and we will always have these two different cultures within Canada,
00:11:58.320 and I think that's part of the distinct beauty of Canada,
00:12:01.180 that compromise between English and French,
00:12:03.720 and it's something that we should steer into.
00:12:05.160 So, too many English Canadians, Anglo-Canadians don't know the history of French Canadians in Canada,
00:12:11.520 And it's an excellent and wonderful history and culture and something that we should embrace. 0.97
00:12:17.220 Part of my mission as an activist is I want to make Anglophones more Francophilic
00:12:21.740 and I want to make Francophones more Anglophilic. 0.73
00:12:23.920 I think we need to have a mutual appreciation and respect for that. 0.77
00:12:27.780 And I think in this age of mass immigration and demographic change, that actually becomes much easier.
00:12:32.540 We can kind of look at all these other people that are coming to the country and realize,
00:12:36.860 oh, you and I, we're not so different after all.
00:12:39.160 So we have to deal with what unites us and unite again against the transformation of Canada.
00:12:47.080 Okay, you partially sold me on that.
00:12:48.680 I was thinking you're never going to square this circle for me, 1.00
00:12:51.140 but I do understand that two peoples that are distinctly different from one another
00:12:55.940 and need different paths can be unified through a shared interest of protecting their own existence
00:13:00.960 via demographic destruction.
00:13:02.660 And that's the history of Canada. 0.97
00:13:03.820 Sure, we're going through a new chapter where the challenge is completely foreign.
00:13:08.360 demographic change but the the the the the genesis of Canada comes through that as well right
00:13:13.720 we were as Grant said two different people uh George Grant uh the French and the English with
00:13:19.240 not much in common other than we didn't want to be American that's why we we created this political
00:13:23.880 pact that is Canada to stop in opposition to a foreign power coming to conquer us we we decided
00:13:31.080 no there's more that brings us together we'll work together in order to preserve our identities
00:13:34.840 that's the founding of Canada and I think we need must rediscover that work together again in the 0.99
00:13:39.640 face of a very different foreign power now it's not as much the US it's it's you know foreigners 0.98
00:13:44.760 from the third world from all over the world who are coming here to transform Canada's identity we 0.83
00:13:48.520 need to refine those roots stand up for our uh for our for our founding peoples for our founding 0.76
00:13:53.240 identities uh and and unite English French East West Alberta Quebec there we there's a lot more
00:13:59.320 that we have in common historically culturally and all these things that we do with the with
00:14:03.720 the third world uh okay i'll share one quick anecdote and then ask you a final question about
00:14:07.480 how christianity factors into the equation of identity just to reinforce your position so my
00:14:12.920 parents are soviet immigrants they're both jewish and we become more jewish when we perceive
00:14:17.960 ourselves as threatened so to daniel's point a sense of enemy or a sense of threat consolidates
00:14:24.760 and reinforces our own sense of identity so that could be happening i'll take your word for it that
00:14:29.560 both francophones and anglophones are experiencing a resurgence in their own sense of coalescence
00:14:34.600 and identity based on what they are experiencing in terms of demographic destruction via contemporary
00:14:39.480 immigration policies okay so on christianity i asked you earlier about what it is the cain culture
00:14:45.640 and of course that's difficult to explain it's not easy it's like you're fish in water i get that
00:14:50.280 is christianity a part of canadian identity and if it is would you agree with the premise that
00:14:57.400 that modern manifestations of Christianity,
00:14:59.200 in many cases, I'll give you an example,
00:15:00.280 just down the street, there's a United Church there,
00:15:02.320 and they've got this rainbow flag going down.
00:15:05.200 Is there a concern among people like yourself
00:15:07.560 that Christian institutions,
00:15:09.480 to say nothing of Christians themselves,
00:15:11.180 are becoming subverted or captured or enmeshed 0.69
00:15:16.280 within the very ideology and movement
00:15:18.780 that pushes for diversity,
00:15:20.480 which is code word for anti-white,
00:15:22.560 anti-Canadian, anti-Western? 0.57
00:15:24.780 Yeah, well, to start off, 0.99
00:15:25.780 I do think the foundations of Canada are inherently Christian.
00:15:29.740 It goes right back into the first words of our Constitution,
00:15:33.660 under the rule of law and the word of God.
00:15:37.380 And whether or not people practice,
00:15:39.940 like these are the moral foundations of Canada.
00:15:43.300 You might be an atheist, an agnostic.
00:15:46.120 You still celebrate Christmas.
00:15:47.080 It's the water in which you swim.
00:15:48.480 You still celebrate Easter,
00:15:49.900 even if you're not going to church every weekend,
00:15:51.460 even if you're not a practicing Christian.
00:15:53.580 It is the foundations of Canada. 0.95
00:15:56.200 And I do think the decline of Christian faith and the transformation of the church in modern age 0.98
00:15:59.980 is a central part of the problems that we're facing,
00:16:03.640 if for no other reason, just to go as simply as community organization, right?
00:16:08.180 People used to be organized around their communities, around the church,
00:16:11.900 and that actually has a very pragmatic, real impact on political organization.
00:16:18.480 People used to have this nexus of the church in their communities,
00:16:21.680 And if you're well organized locally, then you have more influence over the halls of power.
00:16:27.120 You're more organized at the local level to win certain ridings.
00:16:30.040 And we see this impact within these foreign groups who are still much more organized around their temples,
00:16:35.340 their whatever you might want, synagogues or mosques or godwaras or whatnot. 0.93
00:16:41.540 And as a result, these people are very tribal.
00:16:43.580 They're very locally focused.
00:16:45.880 And as a result, they are very effective as voting blocs.
00:16:49.480 And this is why we see politicians going in and wearing the headdresses and playing dress up in order to try and win over the support of these different spiritual communities because they're well organized at the local level.
00:17:03.200 So the decline of faith has had a lot of knock on impacts that have created a lot of the problems that we're going through now.
00:17:11.080 And what I think is the solution is really we have to go back to this local focus and local organization.
00:17:15.820 That's what we're building through our organization.
00:17:17.200 This is why we have such a focus on local chapters.
00:17:19.080 We want to create this grassroots local nexus in different ridings across the country,
00:17:24.940 create these voting blobs that can put pressure directly on specific members of parliament
00:17:28.940 in order to shift them towards our way of thinking or punish them at the battle box.
00:17:33.420 You just reminded me of something I should have asked you, but perfect timing. 1.00
00:17:37.280 So what you're saying, which is obvious, is that a bunch of different visible minorities
00:17:41.560 on racial or ethnic and or religious lines, they're far more consolidated.
00:17:47.780 that they are far more unified in a political sense,
00:17:51.160 in an activist sense, than are, let's say,
00:17:54.080 I think the term you've used is heritage Canadians.
00:17:57.060 I'll say those descended from white Europeans,
00:17:59.000 what have you, that's my own framing.
00:18:00.900 And that there's a lack of sort of ethnic, racial,
00:18:03.600 national lineage consciousness, let's say,
00:18:08.660 among heritage Canadians. 1.00
00:18:10.360 And they're, by definition, they're like disarming themselves 0.99
00:18:13.240 in the context of what's this now democratic landscape 0.99
00:18:17.700 that's characterized by different ethnic groups
00:18:20.880 voting their way in, so to speak.
00:18:22.580 So is it fair to say that you wanna have a greater sense
00:18:25.700 of, let's say, heritage Canadian identity
00:18:29.060 in order to be more of a bulwark
00:18:31.420 against this sort of ethnic fragmentation
00:18:35.040 of the democratic process?
00:18:36.460 Yeah, absolutely.
00:18:37.300 So the thing is, as more people come here,
00:18:41.780 they've created something central
00:18:45.200 to European identity, Western identity,
00:18:47.700 is this idea of liberalism, is this idea of individualism.
00:18:51.380 People want to keep things abstract
00:18:52.920 and fair to the individual. 0.99
00:18:54.200 But as we've imported more and more people here,
00:18:56.700 that's just not how they think about things.
00:18:58.380 They're tribal, they're ethnic,
00:18:59.740 they import this style of politics.
00:19:02.480 And as a result, you have heritage Canadians, 0.96
00:19:04.480 white people who remain atomized. 1.00
00:19:06.260 We don't want to play that game. 0.99
00:19:07.900 And then we're just going to lose
00:19:09.300 because democracy is inherently about collectives, right?
00:19:12.400 It's about creating voting blocks
00:19:14.620 order to shift the whether that's within political parties or within ethnic groups or whatnot in
00:19:19.340 order to achieve power through through democratic means and if you have one side that's saying no
00:19:23.500 we're not going to work together we're all going to be individuals and you have the other sides
00:19:26.940 being we're going to collectivize then we're just going to lose every single time and this is why
00:19:30.780 we're seeing our politics shift shift shift so quickly so we have to we have to get canadians
00:19:35.820 together we have to uh start taking our own side and we have to start working as a collective so
00:19:40.780 that's what we're putting forward we have a very simple principle i don't care about your position
00:19:44.620 on on climate change on economics on any other thing if you agree with me that canada is is not
00:19:49.500 just a is it's not just a post-national economic zone it's a people and that must be defended
00:19:54.380 through our immigration policy and the only way to protect that at this point is through
00:19:57.980 re-migration is through the removal of millions of people who should not have been brought here
00:20:01.980 in the first place if you agree with me on these on these basic principles that can there's a
00:20:06.460 people and we need re-migration and i don't care what your position is on any other i don't care
00:20:10.300 what party you support i don't care uh i don't care if you're a christian or an atheist whatever
00:20:15.580 we need to all get together take our own side work together in order to take back the halls
00:20:19.340 of power with respect to the changing demographic landscape of canada how is that affecting
00:20:25.420 jurisprudence or the rule of law in this country well i mean for one there are there all are all
00:20:30.620 sorts of double standards in our in our judicial system like we're seeing more and more that judges
00:20:35.820 give lighter sentences to people who are here on on immigration visas or short-term or permanent
00:20:41.780 in order to protect their immigration status because if they're if they were convicted of a
00:20:45.780 crime they'd have to be sent back so you see there's a threshold I think it's above a two
00:20:50.340 month sentence would cause deportation so you see courts are issuing all sorts of things where it's
00:20:54.540 like two months minus a day in order to protect them this is ridiculous like this is not the way
00:20:59.460 our judicial system is supposed to work but as well as the people change as the culture change 0.99
00:21:03.600 they're going to they're going to push for their own political ambitions and i think like muslims
00:21:07.920 are a big uh example of this they're still a relatively small portion of canadian uh society
00:21:14.240 but they are very well organized and they do have an entire different conception of justice and of
00:21:19.120 laws like as they get uh a larger and larger foothold they're going to push for their own
00:21:25.520 cultural way of do cultural ways of doing things sharia banking sharia law completely different
00:21:30.800 uh conceptions of what canadian law and justice should be and this is totally uh acceptable in
00:21:36.480 the modern the modern format of politics you know they want to do things differently so they can
00:21:41.040 elect their own officials and those officials can advance their their their their uh communities
00:21:46.320 their constituencies uh expectations and to me it's not that's not okay i don't want canada to
00:21:51.920 become a muslim country there's 50 or so muslim countries around the world if they want to live 0.97
00:21:55.440 under sharia law they don't have to be here they don't have to bring that here and transform our
00:21:59.600 way of life they can go and they can live in the many uh muslim countries around the world that's 1.00
00:22:05.360 their that's their prerogative but i don't think it's acceptable for them to come here and trying 1.00
00:22:09.280 to transform us into something else and that's that's how our system works right now and this
00:22:13.760 is exactly why i think we need to put cultural considerations back into the heart of politics
00:22:17.760 instead of just viewing things everyone as as liberal abstract interchangeable economic units
00:22:23.840 uh the reality is people every every person is a part of a nation is a part of an intergenerational
00:22:29.520 chain with their own cultures traditions superstitions and they that's what they bring
00:22:34.780 here they don't come here as blank slates as much as as much as liberals want to want that to be how 0.97
00:22:40.120 society works it's just not so if we if we bring them here they're going to transform our society
00:22:44.720 into something else so that's not acceptable i want canada to remain canadian the analogy that
00:22:49.660 i use is that you can't install high-end software on let's say a different kind of computer i was
00:22:55.260 gonna say a lower-end computer but some people are just not ready for that cultural software
00:22:58.680 which is why i think assimilation is sort of a delusion i know i've noted that it's basically
00:23:02.200 illegal yeah we don't do assimilation in canada we say come here keep your languages keep your
00:23:07.400 foreign ways of doing things and as a result our country transforms no if we need to change
00:23:12.120 the incentives if you're not going to integrate you can integrate or you can leave like we need
00:23:16.520 to have a central the way canada is the way canada was is better than what it's transforming into
00:23:21.960 and that's why should we stand by and watch our country slowly decline and transform into something
00:23:27.480 else no we can get organized we can push for our conception of what our society should be that's
00:23:33.080 what democracy is you get to build the country you want to live in and this is not the country
00:23:39.000 that i want to live in we've gone in the wrong direction and it's time to take an about face 0.87
00:23:42.680 i mean i think the whole multicultural ethos which is consecrated into canadian law by the way
00:23:47.960 ends up building what you described migrants who come here foreigners outsiders they're told not
00:23:53.240 to assimilate and if anything there's a
00:23:55.160 simplistic statement that they should
00:23:56.440 come with a sort of resentment towards
00:23:58.840 the white european christian culture
00:24:00.760 that founded this country okay we're
00:24:02.360 running out of time i want to ask you
00:24:03.480 one question this may be like a
00:24:05.160 private question i understand if you
00:24:06.600 want to answer but have you had
00:24:08.120 conversations with elected officials or
00:24:09.880 people with influence
00:24:11.560 if you don't name names that's fine do
00:24:13.240 you are you making some sort of inroads
00:24:15.320 with respect to
00:24:17.400 uh communicating or persuading or
00:24:19.240 getting feedback from people who can
00:24:20.360 actually affect
00:24:21.640 policy changes via power uh i i'm not having any conversations with elected officials and they're
00:24:27.400 all very i'm a bit taboo but as we continue to grow um as as we continue to get organized as
00:24:34.360 we continue to fill rooms of people uh our influence will be unavoidable at that point
00:24:39.320 uh and they will they will come to the table i talk to people inside parties all the time
00:24:43.400 with staffers lower level people uh it's it's obvious the impact that we're already having
00:24:47.800 they're talking about us they they see us getting organized they see the influence that we're growing
00:24:52.120 in this country and it's making them nervous um so we just have to keep going keep growing and they'll
00:24:56.200 come to the table do you see this struggle for the preservation of canadian ethnicity identity
00:25:03.320 nationhood as being a part of a broader struggle around the world particularly in europe and the
00:25:09.240 commonwealth let's say the anglosphere to protect this culture this shared culture these shared
00:25:14.520 values from what i'll call demographic destruction is this part does this connect to what's going on
00:25:19.560 in the uk does it connect to what's going on in spain and france and italy in australia the us
00:25:25.880 yeah yeah absolutely where all these countries are going through very similar problems
00:25:29.240 at very similar paces uh there there is there is a whole rising movement around the world
00:25:36.520 uh of nationalism and those are there's going to be different in different countries we're all we
00:25:41.080 all have our own particular identities but it's it's it's unignorable that there's a there's a
00:25:46.200 sea change happening in politics uh we're living through a very important time in history um so
00:25:52.360 the the reality is all these countries our own uh most importantly in our case is going through an
00:25:58.440 existential crisis like our nation is we're we're rapidly becoming a minority with our
00:26:03.640 with our within our own country a hated minority at that they hate our way of life they hate our
00:26:08.360 history we're told that we were evil villains colonizers you think this gets better when we
00:26:13.240 become a minority in this country no this is only we're already oppressed in workplaces for hiring
00:26:18.360 purposes uh white men are at the the bottom of the totem pole it's all completely backwards so we need
00:26:23.800 to we need to get organized and take our countries back and it's happening all over the world i think
00:26:28.200 it's part of a broader power dynamic the the the the the global global geopolitics is shifting
00:26:34.920 from this system where we have one single hegemonic power, the U.S., and we're moving towards
00:26:40.040 this bipolar system between Canada and China, a more chaotic system, and it makes sense
00:26:44.820 that all countries are going to realign to take a more nationalist bend, to put their
00:26:49.360 own people first, in order to survive in this broader, more chaotic geopolitical environment
00:26:55.060 that we're living in.
00:26:55.940 This is an important age in Canadian history.
00:26:58.540 everyone thinks the exciting stuff has passed you know uh uh all the wars and all that stuff is is
00:27:05.940 in the past but we're living through very important very consequential time just right now you know
00:27:10.980 we were born too late to explore the the the seas we're born too early to explore the stars but
00:27:17.120 we're born right in time to take our country back okay okay uh daniel i think that's it man i can
00:27:22.800 ask you a bunch more questions but we gotta run a few amazing folks out there in the audience
