Trump Just Did What Carney Said Was Impossible | CBC: 'What Is He Doing?'
of the fear that an influx of foreigners will transform our social fabric in an undesirable way.But the reality is that our social fabric is changing anyway.
Well, Mark Carney didn't walk it back.In fact, he may very well be the first prime minister in history who explained himself more clearly, and it's actually worse.When all the mainstream outlets, CBC, CTV, as we're going to share today, have nothing to say, but what is he doing?That should be a really big red flag.I'm Jasmine Lane.Like, share, subscribe, comment your thoughts down below.
Hype this video if you have any left and give me a follow on other platforms as well so we can keep in touch.We have a new governor general who does speak French, by the way, and I will say that the fact that this is who the liberals have chosen to represent us is pretty concerning overall.Donald Trump also made a big announcement today that I think Canada can learn a lot from.
100 % of all new jobs have been in the private sector.100%.We cut a lot of government jobs.And two of the three new jobs have been in small businesses, but I just want to say so.Think of that.100%.
of new jobs are in the private sector.Now, to do that, we cut tremendous numbers of governmental jobs.
And this really is a tale of two completely different strategies.And I want you to keep in mind the context and the significance of it, especially when you hear Canadian politicians and leaders saying that Canada's in way better shape than the U .S.because the U .S.has lost how many jobs and we've grown jobs in comparison, while of course never accounting for the job losses that we have here, those tricky little omitted details which are so much more confusing when you are in Canada.
details from your side and then hyper fixating on details from the other.Anyway, I digress.As of 2026, so far right now where we have it, the private sector in America has gained 186 ,000 jobs, but the federal sector of employment has lost over 330 ,000 positions.
I feel sorry for everyone.And I, you know, it's a hard thing to do.None of those people voted for me, but now they like me because they went out, they got private sector jobs that they like better and paying them sometimes two and three times more money.So it's worked out.the right way, but you have to do that.You can't just keep, I mean, we had jobs, we had government jobs where you'd have 10 people doing the job of one person.
And it just, it's, you can't make America great that way.
And the narrative is always that Canada created 80 ,000 new jobs, whereas America only created 6 ,000.Yeah, well, most of that is actually public sector.Guess who pays for those salaries?The private taxes.That's who.And to give a really simple explanation there, the U .
S.is prioritizing private growth because it actually brings capital into the economy, whereas Canada's public sector has grown twice as fast as its private sector in recent years.Is it possible that the federal liberals decided to go on a government hiring spree to try to inflate those numbers?Sure, that's probable.I think that that's fair enough to suggest may be a possibility.But if you're going to be using certain tools within your toolbox to inflate numbers such as your GDP per capita ratios and that sort of thing by increasing the immigration to your country, you are going to have to pay the piper at one point or another.
Economists are now saying that Canada needs at minimum 40 ,000 jobs created each and every month just to keep the unemployment rate from going even higher because our population is growing so fast.
The Auditor General report found 153 ,000 cases of noncompliance with international students that are in Canada.And today we learned that immigration committee from the Liberal Immigration Minister that 14%, so representing roughly 21 ,000 of those people have now sought asylum.I asked her if the checks and balances are working in our immigration system and she said yes.Well, they aren't working.The Liberals have lost control of our immigration system and Canadians are paying the price.
But silly Conservatives, don't you know that this is how you skirt around having tangible results that benefit the quality of life in your economy and your country as you just inflate those numbers.And that could be exactly why it is that Ottawa has just announced 33 ,000 temporary foreign workers fast -tracked to permanent residency.But of course they would do this because there's somewhere around 1 .9 million visas that are expiring this year and gosh that is going to be a headache of undocumented who choose not to go home and live in Canada somewhere that the government does not know.And this brings me to my next topic which is Mark Carney and The people who he chooses to appoint, and we obviously know Mark Wiseman is our new ambassador to the U .S., who co -founded the Century Initiative, which is a Canadian lobbying group which advocates for increasing Canada's population to 100 million by the year 2100, focusing explicitly on high immigration levels.
There's been a lot of people, including Dominic Barton and Mark Carney.And Mark Carney's wife, Diana Fox Carney, among many others, who, uh, Carney has very carefully chosen to be quite close in his inner circle.And you know, it is rather frustrating that this never gets the amount of, at the very least,curiosity from the mainstream media.Like, why is it that Mark Carney keeps appointing people who are his partners in these sorts of things, who have these really ideologically left ideas and plans?that have been implemented in Canada in some cases upon their recommendation that we are seeing the bad negative effects on what does it say about our prime minister that these are the people that he's choosing for these appointed roles.
Have you ever advised on government policy or contributed to government policy before?Have your expertise ever been consulted or your research ever been referenced in any capacity?Yes.
and correct me you're listed as an expert panel member for the century initiative is that correct yes and we have yet another one that i'm curious to see if there's any scrutiny or curiosity criticism perhaps that'd be nice at all about we have a new governor general i am aware of the fear that an influx of foreigners will transform our social fabric in an undesirable way.
But the reality is that our social fabric is changing anyway in this increasingly interconnected world.

Get started freeOh, shoot.My bad.Wrong clip.
This kind of negative attitude towards migration, for instance, in many Western countries in the short to medium term is going to be completely self -defeating.
Oh, my goodness.I did it again.Wrong clip.My bad.Here's the announcement of Mark Carney.
office to which I have asked His Majesty to appoint a Canadian whose entire life has been dedicated to that very principle.I'm very pleased to announce that on my recommendation, His Majesty has approved the appointment of the Honourable Louise Arbour as the 31st Governor -General of Canada.
Now, Miss Arbour will be replacing Mary Simon, whose term ends in July, and she's definitely not a random pick in the slightest.She's a former Supreme Court judge.UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, as well as an international war crimes prosecutor.On paper, she is a heavyweight.She is also, in addition to that, though, somebody deeply embedded in institutions, domestically and global.But I do think that her appointment highlights Mark Carney and technocracy as a whole, because I think Every single one of his appointments has been somebody who is a big believer in institutions.
Why?Because they benefit from them, and they control them, and they believe that they know better.I mean, in the first chapter of his book, Values, as an example, literally page two, it specifically says, and he's talking about being the governor in the Bank of Canada and the UK for the bank, and he says, I felt the collapse in public trust in elites.Globalization and technology, and I became convinced that these challenges reflect a common crisis in values and that radical changes are required to build an economy that works for all.And in typical technocratic fashion, you like institutions because you're trusted within them.And you don't have to abide by the democratic norms of popular vote and things like that in order to do what you want to do.
You also have people within those institutions such as the World Health Organization, as, you know, one of many examples, who are the experts.And you trust the experts.And the experts, conveniently, are also appointed by other experts and other elites.And there does seem to be a very clear class divide when it comes to your trust in these sorts of institutions.And that's not to say that each and every single one of them is nefarious, that every single person who sits on these boards is a bad person, not in the slightest.And especially, you know, for this new governor general, she has said and done some things that are questionable.
She's said and done some things that are great, too.So, we're gonna have to wait and see how all of that unfolds.
And yet, at times, there have been political parties in this country...taken issue with your work.And I'm gonna reference the comment in 2008 of the Treasury Board President at the time, Vic Toews, who after you concluded your work with the UNHCR, called you, and I'm quoting from his words in the House of Commons, disgusting.And just yesterday, a senior aide to former Prime Minister Harper, Howard Anglin, also former Chief of Staff to Jason Kenney, tweeted out, anybody but Arbour.So there's a point here is there's conservatives in this country who took issue with you as a quote judicial activist and so on human rights.And I wondered how you might bridge or seek to make bridges.
with conservatives who might not be so happy with your appointment?
Well, I can tell you that, as I said before, we live in a country where there's a great free space for expression of contrary views, even at times expressed in very robust fashion.And I have immense respect for that process.I will reach out not only to those who agree with me, The kind of cheerleading mode, I think, is not always conducive to change and to progress.I will reach out to anybody who wishes to engage with me, to debate, to discuss.I will listen, and I hope in due course that I will manage to persuade those, particularly those who may doubt my integrity, that I'm not sure I could do much more to try to persuade them otherwise on the basis of what I've done before.But going forward, Yep, I will engage.
Just to fill you in on what exactly it is that they're referring to when they're talking about her being criticized, it's not just from Canadian conservatives either.This is global.And most notably, so she served as the Human Rights High Commissioner for the UN from 2004 until 2008.And in 2006, she hit a real big bumpy road when there was the 34 -day conflict with Hezbollah during the war.not around any more incidents that took place.She was accused of creating a false moral equivalence.
She also had refused to meet with the families of kidnapped soldiers during that conflict.Initially, she then had to backtrack.This happened in 2008.There was an Arabic charter, a human rights charter that had come out, and she had praised it as being a step forward.And then somebody pointed out to her, there's actually some stuff in there about being Jewish and how, you know, being a Zionist is now going to be equated with racism.And then she had to say, oops, I didn't mean to share that.
My bad.I didn't see that line.She's also been condemned for praising the government in Cuba, despite their human rights issues.And this one is kind of interesting too.So it's a sin or something to have a drawing, depiction, cartoon of Muhammad.And she has been very vocal calling that out about how disrespectful that is, blah, blah, blah, while at the same time being incredibly silent when it comes to issues of anti -Semitism across the globe.
The first is that I think history has shown that the judgments of the UNHCR at the time, how correct they were, the crimes against humanity and others that were addressed, The first observation.The second is I don't want to extend into a partisan characterization of this.This is an institution that belongs to all Canadians, all political parties, but truly all Canadians.
You know what, though?My favorite part about this entire press conference this morning was when Mark Carney had an opportunity to correct course and instead he said, hold my beer.Good morning, Raisa Patel, the Toronto Star.Fun fact, Raisa Patel once upon a time had me very stressed out because the Toronto Star there, whoo, baby, they can be pretty bad sometimes.Nothing against her personally, obviously, but they were trying to write a hit piece about myself and a few other creators in this space.And they ended up canceling it because after interviewing all of us, they didn't really have anything despite how loud people on the internet are.
What do you mean?You're on social media and you're conservative and talk about it.Who influences you?Like, I don't know, Statistics Canada, who influences you?That's a way better question.Who pays you?
Like, I don't know, my mom lent me money for groceries and stuff after I decided to leave my job and do this for a living.And I didn't think it was going to work out for me, and then it did, because it turns out I'm not alone and I'm actually not crazy.So there's that.Well, how exactly did you grow so fast?I don't know, I guess I'm good at my job?Like, How did you get to speak at the Conservative Convention and close it out like that?

Get started freeYou must be foreign interference.No, girl, I literally sent a PowerPoint presentation that was titled, Why I Should Speak at the Conservative Convention.I'm just as surprised as you are that I got that.I never thought that they would accept a PowerPoint proposal like that.It literally says, yes, I made a PowerPoint for this on the front page.So yeah, I'm surprised too.
I'm with you.
what we're celebrating today.I think we are celebrating the constitutional role of the Governor General.I and other Canadians are celebrating Madame Obrador's willingness to serve in that role, which is a belief in democracy, the rule of law.who transgressed, in the most egregious ways, those rules, norms, standards, were prosecuted and brought to justice.That system, as I've observed in the past, and I'm not alone in making these observations, has been greatly weakened and needs to be rebuilt, and rebuilt perhaps in a different way, but rebuilt based on the same principles.And Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Australia, other countries, share very firm convictions with those principles, and we will work together to rebuild.
And obviously there's a critical mass in Europe of countries, 27 members of the European Union, but then a broader grouping that you saw in that meeting in Armenia, over 50 countries that have some form of association with Europe and either fully support or are moving towards those principles.So that's what I meant by those comments and I stand by them.
I feel like this more than anything was this opportunistic moment.for a technocrat, such as Carney, to declare a new world order and a post -American strategy so that they can start funneling everything into the areas that they want them to be funneled into.And he has focused so much on this relationship being broken beyond repair.Meanwhile, we still have USMCA, or KUSMA as we call it here, which is still in effect for a number of years, by the way, which does still mean that tariffs on various products are 85 % tariff -free.They're zero, right?And so for those other sectors, I feel as though the mature thing to do would have been to, I don't know, help the industry by not regulating them so hard, by not having so many environmental restrictions and all of that sort of stuff that literally nobody else in the world is doing except for us.
And you didn't do that.
Well, Kate, on that, when Vandana was talking about maybe the U .S.is feeling pressure and, you know, maybe the long game is paying off, you were sort of shaking your head that you disagree with that.
I mean, how do you view it in terms of what you're seeing from the U .S.?Certainly, it's not paying off for Canadians.We have sat on this show and said those countries that have deals have them promptly ignored.We don't have a sectoral deal and things are changing.
But we actually were very close to a sectoral deal back in the fall.The government is conveniently admitting that when they're talking about the nature of the relationship with the United States.But the U .S.walked away from the table.Well, the U .
S.says that it was Canada's action in a particular ad from the Premier of Ontario.Yes, it was Ontario's action.That was the source of that.The USTR last week said that he's happy to talk to Canada about critical minerals and an energy pact.He said that right beside the ambassador.
It is Canada who is slow rolling this.We had a sectoral deal.Dominic LeBlanc has said that they were trading term sheets associated with that.So if you are looking at today's relief package and wondering if this is a sign that Canada is preparing for the long game, I think it's a pretty good sign, particularly when you consider there's been no meaningful conversation and negotiation But how is Canada slow rolling it if Trump imposed the tariffs, Trump ended the negotiations on the tariffs, and James McGreer says you're going to have to live with these tariffs?Greer has said that there is nothing to be done on sectoral tariffs moving forward.
He says it's up to the president.There's nothing he can do.
And Donald Trump, he says you have to get used to the fact there's going to be tariffs.And how is not having a conversation on these things going to improve Canada's position?The hope seems to be that we'll have a more distracted audience in the United States.And I think it's just as likely that if Trump does poorly in the midterms, that he looks to lash out and Canada will be a convenient whipping post.So hope is not a strategy.The Prime Minister is the one who ran on getting back to the table.
I hear a lot of cutting slack and putting this at the feet of the president in terms of, you know, what Canadians are willing to withstand.The prime minister is the one who ran the election on being able to fix this issue.
But what is this really about?It is about Mark Carney and his personal preferences, not because they're based in anything factual, but it's based on an experiment.that he would like to lead.He wants that to be his legacy.That's what all of that reads like to me.He loves global regulatory standards.
Why?He influences them.Of course he loves them.He wants to be right.That is his goal and Canada is a pawn in that game so that he can be known in history for what it was that he tried to do.And he probably genuinely believes that it will work.
But thankfully, There are many people who are really starting to call his bluff now.
Lisa, last word to you is, is joining the EU going to save us?

Get started freeNo, I don't think it's good politics either.There are two, there's two types of Canadians right now, Bashi.It's the Canadians who are very secure.They own a house.They've got a pension.They're doing well.
And they can indulge themselves in these kinds of political, fancy kind of thoughts of, being part of Europe or doing something different and having a middle power and what it means to the great world.And then there's the other kind of Canadians.It's the Canadians that Minister Solon was just talking about, the ones that are gonna be helped in terms of steel and aluminum tariffs.It's the Canadians who are being laid off right now because companies are closing.It's Canadians who are really worried about the fact that it's a buck 78 right now at the gas tank.I don't think talking about Europe and joining Europe is necessarily good politics.
There's a lot of fires going on here at home in Canada, and a lot of people are going to be judging him based upon what he's saying in other countries.and saying.I don't think he gets it.Like, is he out of touch?That's a very dangerous place for Mark Carney to be given his incredible resume and the fact that he has survived in these very different places for so long that haven't necessarily been in the more middle class of Canada, which is truly suffering in the moment.
