"Trump Didn't Do That..." | Poilievre Brought The Receipts While Carney Hides

Well, you could ask him that question, but he won't take any of your questions.He's been in hiding.

Oh, yes.He let you in for 30 seconds to have a little picture of him with the Chinese foreign minister.Then he hid for the rest of the weekend.Today, he's going to let you show up and take a picture of him wearing a hard hat and carrying a hammer around, pretending he's a carpenter.

The economy of the country of Canada is a very interesting one.Like the fact that there is a complete billionaire class in this nation who have built their empires on your tax dollars.It seems weird, right?Jordan Peterson actually commented on this, and he used a word that nobody in Ottawa ever wants to see trending.So we're going to say it, and we're also going to prove it.We're going to give you all of the data and evidence and receipts for exactly that.

I'm Jasmine Lane.Like, share, subscribe, comment your thoughts down below.Hype this video as well.It is a Monday after all, so I know they've refreshed.Pierre Polyev has unlocked a new version of himself, and there is somewhere in this 19 -second CBC clip that a single word which perfectly summarizes exactly how our national broadcaster has covered for this government.

The lavish meals our Prime Minister spends upon himself while flying himself all around the world to improve Brookfield profits.

New documents show that nearly $200 ,000 was spent feeding the Prime Minister and government officials on just three flights last year.

That's right.The menu including slow simmered beef, fine wine, luxury buttercups.What are luxury buttercups?

I don't know.

We need to find out.Maybe Franco Teresino knows.He is the Federal Director of the Taxpayers Association.and joins us now with more Franco quite the bit.and at a time where many Canadians are struggling to pay for groceries themselves.

Yeah, and that's what stood out to me, right, is number one, the cost of taxpayers.just for airplane food, $195 ,000 spent on airplane food on just three trips.And to put that into context, right, that's more than what the average Canadian family spends in groceries for a decade, right?So a huge bill to taxpayers.But when you look at the menu, you see multi -course gourmet meals being served on these airplanes on the taxpayer dime.

and get rid of this fucking tyranny.

I personally think this is one of the best examples of how absolutely vile, irate, and unhinged much of the Canadian public has become from this constant blame game, this constant victimhood mentality that our government promotes.Do you remember when the Alto high -speed rail project got their permission from the major projects office, $90 billion to nowhere.There was one thing that hardly made the headlines that it should have back then, and that was on March 26th.Bill C -15 received royal assent, and that included amendments to the expropriation act specifically for high speed rail.Wonder why, which would expedite the federal land expropriation and remove the rights of property owners to negotiate for the value of their properties.Listen to that again.

The government literally rewrote.the law so that they can take your land faster and on their terms.But I do think it's quite funny because everybody at the time was like, Pierre Paulief, you're the reason why we can't build nice things.Do you remember the meltdown?Oh gosh, that was so enjoyable to go through, to see the way in which everybodyoutlet was just slamming Pierre Polyev and the Conservatives for opposing this project.

But we've seen complete and total silence from the fact that, as reported by CTV News today, Eastern Ontario community will not grant Alto access to land for high -speed rail study.We've seen complete silence on the fact that 12 mayors Across eastern Ontario have all signed a letter to government saying that they do not want this.In fact, almost everybody does not want this.Nonetheless, Alto has begun their environmental assessments.They've passed that royal assent so that they don't actually need anybody's permission and they can just do it, take it.and do what they want with it on this thing that nobody wants.

A little less crony capitalism would be a good thing, because crony capitalism is really fascism, to give it its proper terminology.And this collusion between huge industry and huge government, that's got to stop.It's not the free enterprise market that properly responds to transformations of demand and supply.it's top -down collusion and it's aided and abetted by very large players and that's really gone out of hand as well.I think the Conservatives would do well to address that as much as they possibly can.

What Jordan Peterson is saying there is something that I have been researching ad nauseam lately and that is that Canada's subsidy addiction is going to absolutely break us.Canada over the last 10 years, thanks to the United States of America, I'd like to add.And Donald Trump actually mentioned this when he was speaking at the World Economic Forum earlier this year.Take a listen.

I'm going to be defending Canada.Canada gets a lot of freebies from us, by the way.They should be grateful also, but they're not.I watched your prime minister yesterday.He wasn't so grateful.But they should be grateful to us, Canada.

Canada lives because of the United States.Remember that.Mark, the next time you make your statements.

Over the last decade plus, Canada has not built a diversified, competitive, or even productivity -driven economy, obviously.It has built a managed economy, a managed one where the government decides which sectors matter, which companies survive, which projects proceed, get funded, which transitions get funded, and the result is exactly what the data shows.1 .1 % GDP per capita growth over a decade.with five quarters of falling private investment and a business community that is described, by the way, by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business as, quote, treading water, hoping for brighter days.And when private capital stops flowing because the return on investment is far less reliable than a government grant, you do not have capitalism anymore.You have what Peterson called it by its proper name, crony capitalism.

And the question for conservatives, I think, isn't just, you know, do we do we repeal all of these bad liberal policies?I really do think because it is so structural at this point, it's whether or not they have the political will to dismantle a subsidy architecture, one that benefits enough constituencies, including conservative leaning ones.There's a lot of hard choices to make here.

Canada is expected to have the second fastest growing economy in the G7 this year and next.And in the first four months of this year alone, we landed over $10 billion in commercial deals for Canadian businesses.

You know what I think is interesting and really important to pay attention to with Anita Anand's statement, and that was given at an event that she held earlier today, is That in a normal market economy, commercial deals are struck between private companies or private parties responding to supply, demand and price signals, right, the market.The government announces them at a podium only when the government was involved in making them happen, which almost always means public money, public guarantees, subsidies, public procurement.That was the lever.That is a managed economy.that is not a free market, okay?And I want you to really think about what has been announced in the last four months.

You know, the pattern in these recent deals that are really, really odd.So just today, if I'm not mistaken, maybe it was yesterday, Hanwha and Algoma Steel have announced that they may or may not be doing something soon.It's a Korean defense company offering Canadian steel contracts and a low interest loan to the struggling Algoma Steel contingent though on winning a $60 to $120 billion government submarine contract.What about 1 million tons of LNG per year from KSI -lisms in British Columbia with Germany?right?It sounds like a market deal, but it only came directly after Germany committed to the submarine bid process and diplomatic courtship by the Carney government.

So that trade relationship and the energy deal are completely inseparable from the political negotiation.Volkswagen, Solantis, their battery plants, $28 billion and $15 billion, respectively, in government subsidies to attract foreign manufacturers, many of which have left close -up shop are delaying their plans.None of those are commercial deals in any traditional sense.They were incentive packages the government was paying multinational corporations to locate here because the underlying economics under their policy didn't make enough sense on their own.They weren't attractive on their own.What Anita Anand is describing there and the things that she's bragging about there

is a government using diplomatic pressure, public financing, and procurement leverage.subsidy architecture to manufacture the deal flow.And then they present the results as though it's some evidence of this economic strength.But it isn't.And the deals are real.But the question is what they cost.

What did they cost in subsidies and concessions and public guarantees and future obligations?

And his economy has unexpectedly ground to a halt and slipped into a technical recession.

I'm sorry, did I did I hear that right?Let's play that again.Just one second here.

And his economy has unexpectedly ground to a halt.

Unexpectedly.He seriously just said, CBC, the national broadcaster that our tax dollars pay for, just said, unexpectedly.Well, my goodness, it turns out that those individuals who accuse everybody else of being misinformation...And inside of echo chambers are in fact dealing with the consequences of being in one themselves.Had they listened to citizens who think differently than they do, anybody who votes differently than they do, or businesses and experts who have a different idea or different information, this wouldn't be surprising to them in the slightest.

Their Prime Minister Carney has decided that it might be better to improve relations with the United States instead of with China, as he implied earlier in his challenge to Donald Trump.I was wondering what you make of this.

Richard Davidson He just runs around like a chicken with his head cut off.I mean, he got in this tiff with Donald Trump, and all he had to do was say, yes, there is a problem with Canada and the United States.We're a small country, and we're running a huge trade surplus with you, 53 billion a year, and we're going to work on that.

France is not in a recession.The United Kingdom is facing tariffs and the global energy price increase.And the United Kingdom is not in recession.Germany and Italy are facing global economic effects and tariffs.They're not in recession.Japan is facing tariffs and the global economic economy.

Japan is not in recession.The United States is obviously facing tariffs and global economic factors like high energy prices.And the United States is not in recession.So why is it that only Canada, after a year of Mark Carney, is in a recession today?Well, you could ask him that question, but he won't take any of your questions.He's hiding from you.

It was Friday morning that we learned that Canada's economy was the only one in a recession.The only G7 economy.And what has Mark Carney done since?He's been in hiding.Oh yes, he let you in for 30 seconds to have a little picture of him with the Chinese foreign minister, then he hid for the rest of the weekend.Today, He's going to let you show up and take a picture of him wearing a hard hat and carrying a hammer around pretending he's a carpenter, but he won't have time to take questions on how he created the only recession in the G7.

Question period.Where normally prime ministers go to answer, especially in a moment of crisis, when the economy has fallen into the only recession in the G7, you would expect him to be there, to be accountable, to show his incredible economic brilliance, but he's not showing up for question period either.While Canadians are starving, losing their jobs and missing mortgage payments, and Mark Carney has created the only G7 economy in a recession, he is hiding from accountability.Now, Liberals are saying it's only a technicality.Sure, it meets the back -to -back declining GDP quarter after quarter.that you find in any textbook.

But that's just an economic fluke.Look at the other data.So let's do that.Let's start with jobs.In the first three months of this year alone, under Mark Carney, Canada's lost 112 ,000 jobs.There are 45 ,000 more unemployed Canadians than there were when Mark Carney became Prime Minister.

We have the second highest unemployment in the G7, a third higher than in the U .S.Let's move from there to business investment.Remember all the investment Mark Carney was going to bring us?For five consecutive quarters, investment has declined in Canada.There's $20 billion in net investment that has left since he took office.

You know what isn't unexpected, though?This from the House of Commons earlier today.not unexpected in the slightest.trade deal, which would mean, in essence, that whatever happens with trade doesn't really matter and shouldn't affect us negatively, especially comparative to other countries, because we have the best trade deal and most of our trade is tariff -free.

But anyway, continue.That's why we're building four new mines in Saskatchewan, a uranium mine, a potash mine, and a copper mine.They should start to understand economics and try to help build this country instead of tear it down.

What a week.Man, gosh, there is just nothing I disrespect more than that.It just makes me feel cringe.You should really get on board with exactly what we are doing that has led this country into a technical recession and had declining metrics over the last 10 years.And if you don't, you're tearing down the country and you're being really mean to us.Grow up, Tim Hodgson.

Come on, man.Do you have no dignity left?

You alluded to oil and gas.This has been a long -standing problem.The attitude from southern and central Canada, the barely concealed contempt and sometimes the open contempt for the Alberta economy and the way of life in Alberta is something that wouldn't be tolerated with any other province.The vast majority of Albertans polls show at least 70 % and I would include even more who might vote for separation out of frustration but don't really want to leave Canada at the end of the day.The vast majority of Albertans love Alberta and they love Canada.I'm not sure a lot of people in Ottawa can say the same thing.

I know they love Canada but when they look at Alberta, Albertans at least don't feel a lot of love.So I think it's incumbent upon central Canada to look at this as a wake -up call to do things that frankly are not just rewarding the separatist sentiment or the separatist activists, but doing them because they're actually the right thing, both for Alberta and for the Canadian economy.

And you know what's just so crazy is there is one reason, two reasons, two reasons why Canada's economy is in this situation.Number one, increased government overreaching control on absolutely everything.Get out of my life, please and thanks, government.And number two, has to do with what Mark Carney wrote an entire book about, what him and his wife's life, work, and legacy is going to be.But the crazy part is that the science is actuallymoving away from that and nobody's talking about it.

In fact, researchers linked to the UN's own IPCC climate panel have been quietly scaling back all of their worst case scenario warming scenarios.This is coming from the Epoch Times.Ross McKittrick, who's an environmental economics professor at the University of Guelph, has said plainly to the extent that they are justifying some of these regulations using cost benefit calculations from a few years ago.Those are now obsolete.So the science has changed so much that the models to justify the carbon tax, carbon capture, the emissions cap, cancelled pipelines, blocked LNG terminals, the complete obliteration of our economy, Here's another quote from the article.economist Jack Mintz.

And if you are drinking water or anything of the sort, please finish your sip before I share this.According to OECD data, the U .S.real GDP per capita has grown by roughly 18 to 20 percent since 2015.Canada's has grown by just 1 .1 percent over roughly the same period.Mintz argued that Many of Canada's economic challenges stem from politics tied directly or indirectly to the country's net zero commitments, including carbon pricing, emission rules and project approval uncertainty.

I love how Minister Tim Hodgson there had the audacity to stand up and say, we're building all this stuff.No, you aren't.No, you aren't.I mean, Red Christmas.as an example, has been operating for years.They're just getting an expansion.

The vast majority of those other projects, they have, their timeline is like 10 years into the future.And for the record, when he says, look at what we are building, the government isn't building any of that.The honest version of that is, look at what survived our regulatory environment long enough to get approved.Those aren't the same thing.The pattern that nobody in Ottawa seems to ever want to say out loud is that we have built an economy entirely on permanent government life support.And we have kept citizens satisfied based on permanent government life support.

And while, by the way, we are actively destroying the one and only relationship that makes our economy work at all.And that's not an exaggeration.That is just honest.And until all of us are honest about it, despite how unpopular it is.

Kellyanne, there's a lot of talk here in Canada about why we are not engaged in any kind of formal talks right now with the US while Mexico is.Does that send you any type of signal or is it just that right now the focus is on the deal with Mexico and then it will be Canada's turn, as you point out, later in the summer?Is there anything to be read into it?

Yeah, so a few things.And I recognize that the sentiment is very different on the Canadian side of the border than it is on the U .S.side.So just speaking from the U .S.

perspective, when the president imposed his IEPA tariffs over a year ago, there were only two countries that retaliated.It was China and it was Canada.And I think that set the relationship off on a trajectory that was very difficult to recover from in the short term.You also had these ads being played, Ronald Reagan in certain key states, at the president, you had a number of remarks being made.of the is on the Canadian side.So I think the US sees Mexico as a potential first partner to resolve this with.

And then once that deal's in hand, we'll go back to Canada and see if they're also willing to accept similar terms.

And I'm going to do my best to say this respectfully, but I'm really heated today.I'm not going to dance around it.I definitely need to take my dog for a walk when I'm done filming.Because this is what doesn't compute for me and it never has.I've never been able to break through and I think it really is just because it makes absolutely no sense and there's no amount of omission, scapegoating, blame game or lies that will make it make sense to me because it just isn't true.Full stop.

All of this commentary and this rhetoric about what Canada should be, this is who we are, Okay, well, just hold on.If Canada is really strong, independent, and sovereign, why did we spend a decade making ourselves weaker?Why did we do that?Why did we spend a decade being victims?Why would we do that?Why did we block the pipelines, cancel projects, scare away investment, make it harder to build things, make it harder to thrive and survive, be competitive, and then we're shocked?

What?It's unexpected that our economy still depends on one customer.It's unexpected that our economy is in shambles after, as a result of that dependence and thinking it was never going to change, taking advantage of it so that we could pursuefar -left radical ideologies to put them into action, to use Canada as a test subject for all of this stuff that doesn't work, that every other country on earth is scaling back from except for us.That's unexpected.Wow, okay, you don't become independent by making yourself less productive.

You're not stronger when you destroy your only competitive advantages, and you're not less dependent on America by destroying the only industries that give you leverage in the first place.And, you know, what makes me the most irate with this is watching how angry Canadians get at reality and the people sharing it.And if it bothers you that America has enormous influence over our economy, be angry at the governments who spent years making sure that we had fewer alternatives, years passing legislation for this exact end result.All of it was created right here at home while most people weren't paying attention or were so wrapped up in this fake patriotism that they didn't even have a hot clue what was actually going on in the real world.Our government also passed legislation to try to limit your ability to see that as well.Bill C -18, C -11.

And it takes me back to something that I have discussed so many times.I've said it on stage when I've been doing public speaking things across this country is cause versus symptom reactions.Because Canadians have been so conditioned to not even know what the cause is and just react to the symptom.And that breaks my heart a little bit because the response to the symptom, the response to feeling small and exposed and structurally dependent, which you are, wasn't to look at the policies that created it.It was to perform anger at the symptom by Canadian law.cancel your Florida trip, slap a maple leaf flag on the roof of your car, and call that resistance.

To who?To what?Like, that's so embarrassing.It's so weak.And the fake patriotism literally has made this problem harder to solve.Because the moment that you frame a tariff, which was slapped on every country, As Canada versus America, it's some cultural conflict, moral superiority, you know, you've made it so impossible to have a real conversation that matters about any of this stuff.

Because it's not, oh, Donald Trump hurt my feelings, Donald Trump, well, he said it, he started it, I don't care.What are you doing about it?How did we let ourselves become this dependent?What are you actually going to do about it?Where is Elbows Up demanding better from this government?Demanding that they repeal taxes, demanding that they make us competitive again by getting rid of all of this stuff that the science literally proves to be obsolete.

Where are you?But nobody will have that conversation because I think in order to have it, you have to admit that the government you just reelected built the vulnerability that Trump is exploiting.And that same government, who is very aware of that, is now exploiting your emotions over that exploitation to stay in power.The recession is not Trump's fault.The dependency on America is not America's fault.The canceled pipelines, the blocked anything productive, That all happened here.

Those were choices made by governments that Canadians elected.And if you want to actually fix that, and you don't want to just keep whining and complaining about how hard and mean everybody is, and I'm better because I'm Canadian.so.You have to be honest about who made the hole that we are currently standing in, because it was not Washington.It was nothing else from around this globe.It was right here on our home turf.
