Ilhan Omar RAIDED, DHS Investigating Possible IMMIGRATION FRAUD w/ Elliot Daigneault

(upbeat music) - Elon Omars. - The home has been rated. The DHS has made a massive play, days, or weeks, I guess, a few weeks before the midterms here. Pretty unprecedented. We've never really seen anything quite like this before. A lot of reaction from all over the political space. Also, the reason why they rated her home was not what we expected. I think a lot of people heard you on Omars. They thought it was over her brother. Turns out it's some completely separate documents. But hey, I'm all right. Let's hear out DHS. I'd be all right if she got deported. That'd be pretty cool. We have a few more stories, but that's obviously the big one. It's kind of hard to follow up. Elon Omars are getting her home rated. Oil prices are on the rise. Once again, I ran, you know, continuing on. I'll probably be talking about this for the next three years of my life. We have at this point, at this rate. Also, to call you up and send you to the front line. - I know, yeah, until I get, you know, drop like a drone picks me up and carries me over there. ATF. No, it's suppressors.

Because that's not my wheelhouse. And just kind of decided to talk about the story for no reason whatsoever. And Quebec, separatist of one, an election there. Again, this is something that's been percolating my head. Again, there's no other reason why we bring up such a story.

And we are back and I am your host, tape brown here holding it down for the great Tim Pool today who is out with an illness, but he will be back soon. But thankfully, we have a fantastic guest here today to hold down the show or join by the great Elliot Denon. - Thank you for having me, man, I'm stoked. - Dude, this is gonna be a great one. You know, I catch a lot of flat 'cause I refuse to go in on the Canadians. I mean, the Canadian government obviously, but I meet a lot of great Canadians. You're emblematic of that. You're a fantastic patriot. - Thanks, thanks. - You know what, there's a few of us, still in Canada. The ones who haven't fled to the US yet. - I love it, I love it. So, who are you, what do you do? - Yeah, so I'm a political commentator, conservative political commentator who are far and few in Canada. Host of the right call on YouTube and Spotify and aside from that, I'm just a inspiring American one day. Well, we need you up there for the time being. Try to win back, we can't see it any ground. - No, we'll get into it. We got a lot of good stories coming, Brett. - It's going on. - I'm an honorary Canadian exempt from Minnesota. So, I'm basically a Canadian. - You mean from Somalia? - Yeah, yeah, well, so I coined the term frostback as my slur towards Canadians, but I won't use that on you at all tonight. - We like snow Mexicans better. - I like it, that's another. - I love that, I love that. We got film house. - What's up everybody, back from the imaginary world of Las Vegas out doing some ATR stuff last week. So, I'm back here holding it down with my good friend, Tay, what's going on Carter? - What's up, I know you're in Las Vegas, I'm in LA. - Did I say Las Vegas? - You did. - No, I meant LA. - Same for me. - Oh man, I mean, it's the same thing. It felt like it was Vegas with like a hundred degrees when I got in. - Oh man. - It's crazy. - Time me up. - Well, hey, let's get into it. - Let's get into it. And we'll get into it this first story. Everyone's talking about it from the associated press, agents, search, representative Omar's, Washington home and criminal probe as she vows. She won't be silenced. And you can see here, the guys in the HSI. Jack gets posted up outside of her home. This is a fascinating story to say, the least we're still learning the facts as they come in. I'll read here from the AP. Federal agents on Monday search the home of Democratic US representative Elan Omar, a startling escalation and a criminal investigation that brings renewed focus to the frequent target of the Trump administration's derision in the final weeks of her reelection bid. She's likely going to be safe. That's like a plus 50 Biden district, but you know, stranger things have happened. The search of the Minnesota Congresswoman's home so close to next month's midterm contests that would determine control of the House and Senate was swiftly condemned by top Democrats in Congress who raised questions about the timing, giving a longstanding Justice Department protocol to avoid overt investigative steps involving political candidates and they direct run up to an election. Obviously Omar and thank you AP for sort of adding that in. We wouldn't have known as an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump. Once again, this is a fascinating story, Homeland Security, Mark Wayne Mullen. Last month, I decided a quote ongoing investigation that he suggested was examining potential fraud in her family's immigration paperwork. Quote, "Something's going to happen." He said in a potential foreshadowing of the search. - The timing, obviously. I said the same thing earlier today. I said it looks like if anything is signaling to the Trump base, like, hey guys, look, we're doing stuff. We're trying to get stuff done before the midterm. So to say it's not politically motivated, timing-wise doesn't seem very genuine to me. - I agree. It is politically, I mean, there is the political angle, but it is also, you know, it does seem like there's substance, right, it's not just fabricated. If she lied about, allegedly, the story is that she lied about her birthday so that way she could get naturalized with her father when he was naturalized in 2000. She said she was 17, she was actually 18. Therefore, she's not actually a citizen of the United States. And in my opinion, look, I'm very open about, or very clear about my policy or my personal preferences when it comes to immigration and all immigration for a few decades. Everybody that's here is illegal. You have to go if you're here legally. You have to go back. We don't need to have a massive amount of immigrants and the people that are here, that are immigrants, that are children of immigrants. They need to assimilate, become Americans, which I think I'm of the opinion that basically anyone can become an American, but it's not something that happens just by putting your foot on the magic soil. We don't have magic soil here. You have to come to the United States. And so if you're here illegally, if you've somehow got around the law or lied on your paperwork, gotta go. Now, as for what this means, politically say hypothetically, she's found in the next couple of weeks or you're not able to be the representative, that doesn't substantively change who would be elected from that district, right? The district elected Ilan Mohar, Ilan Omar, because she is a Somali. She says that she represents the Somali community of Dearborn or of that area. It's not like you're going to get some MAGA guy in there and they're going to elect that person. So there's not going to be a substantive change. It's going to be someone that has similar views, similar politics will likely win. - But I don't think it's about getting somebody in that you think, I don't think it's about getting a MAGA guy in there. I think it's about signaling to the Trump base that we're doing things at a time when they're saying that nothing's getting done, where that's the straw man arguments that nothing in the administration is getting done, it's lame administration, administration, and we've had discussions in the past about the things that have been accomplished. So it doesn't feel to me like it's about changing the voting in Minnesota, more about signaling that they're-- - No, and I agree with you, but I think that beyond, I don't think there anything you said is wrong, but I do think beyond that, it also kind of reminds people that it is a situation where they are trying to get illegals out. - But keep in mind as well, a judge had to sign off on it, right? So this is sure, maybe there's a political aspect to it, but ultimately if there was no substance, there was no basis, a judge would have rejected it. - And it's interesting that you brought up the magical soil 'cause we were talking about that today 'cause over the weekend, like Danny Trejo released a statement 'cause he's doing a movie with the Daily Wire. That's like a pro ice movie, and he basically-- at least a tweet or something being like, "No, I'm anti-ice and I'm a Mexican-American blah, blah, blah." And the point that we were making today is that the days of, because he's born in America. So it doesn't even matter at that point. Like it's not even about assimilation in a lot of ways, 'cause even people born here don't necessarily assimilate. And there is still, and my point that I was making during the show, was like there's for a lot of like the generic liberals, or old-school liberals, there is a romantic story around the idea of somebody shedding the skin of their former homeland, and coming here, and becoming an American, and embracing American tradition and American values. And that's something that's very powerful, but it's not the reality that we live in anymore. If anything, it's kind of like a spectre. It's a ghost of a past life in America. - That's a really good point, because if you look at what's happening in France right now, there's massive riots, right? A lot of those riots are people, young guys, that are second and third generation French. So they've been born, they're born in France, they've lived their whole life in France. They have not assimilated. - A point that Tate makes all the times is when you have enclaves, people that are all of the same ethnicity living in an area, then you really don't get that kind of assimilation. Or that's one of the reasons why you don't get that assimilation. I think there's multiple aspects as to why, but I think that to Tate's point, which he's made on IRL multiple times, if you have these enclaves where everybody basically is just bringing the old country with them, there isn't the impulse or the need to assimilate. That's one of the reasons why, back when the Trump administration, first start when the second administration started, I was very, very pro like, make sure that the government produces no materials in any language other than English. You have to speak English. And I do think the United States should have a national language that's English, and we shouldn't accommodate different groups of people, because now you can go and you can see there are government documents that are written in Chinese or in Arabic or in Spanish, or what have you, and we shouldn't do any of that. Everyone that comes here should speak the same language, because there are concepts in one language that don't make sense in a different language. There are jokes that don't land the same because of the language. So to initially, the first, very most important thing, is have everybody able to understand each other, and to do that, you need to learn English. Yeah, I mean, well, it's funny, because we're saying this and we're saying, okay, we'll look, the problem here is you have these ethnic enclaves, you know, the immigrants come in and they pack in one place. And of course, the solutions to that, you know, going in and maybe breaking them up using government power, that sounds like something that only a far right government would do. But we've seen in Switzerland here, I mean, this is from the conversation.com. This is just a random piece I pulled up at the last second. You can find this well documented. Denmark, who I don't think any of us would really think of as a far right society or certainly a far right government. I mean, the government they have in powers, a very center left kind of pragmatic government, they've been sort of ghetto busting for lack of better word. They've been going into these ethnic enclaves of immigrants, obviously, because they're not Danish, and sort of breaking them up. I think they actually have a threshold of 50% of a neighborhood reaches a non-Danish, you know, so that becomes a non-Danish majority. They have to by law go in there and sort of break it up. They go and bulldoze the buildings. I mean, it is very, sort of aggressive, as you can see here, from the title, Denmark's uprooting of settled residents from ghettos forms part of aggressive plan to assimilate non-white inhabitants, and go figure it's working. And you're actually seeing in Denmark, in Denmark, I said it really stuff, funny. In Denmark, you can see that it's working, you can see that these governments get rewarded by the voters, which is the funniest part I was telling you earlier. The secret sauce, if you're a liberal, is just keep immigration under control, and you'll keep most of the nationalists happy. The nationalists just want to see that their country is going to be the same country that they can give their kids. If you want to pass your socialist reforms and your, you know, lefty, social programs, you could probably get away with that as long as you keep immigration under control. I mean, that's kind of the reality in the situation. America's a slightly different beast, but certainly the case in Europe that this would be this instance. - I also laughed at the article when they were talking about the unspoken rule of not trying to use law fair against political opponents as if that hasn't been something that they've been-- - Yeah, literally. - Doing to Republicans for years and years and years. - Well, this is what I got to ask, Elliot, do you believe, so President Trump, he came out and he said, "I have no idea this is going to happen." And obviously they juxtaposed this with JD Vance, saying back in May, that they were actively looking at the immigration record. Do you believe Trump that he had no active role in this? - Do I believe in probably not? I mean, he's a president and he should be aware of these things, but there are separations between the judiciary and I guess the White House proper. And politically he can't say he ordered it or did he had anything to do with it. We get that. But again, like I'm all for it because I've never understood in the US the whole unspoken like 60 day before an election. You don't investigate anything political. I mean, if you commit a crime, you need to be prosecuted period. I agree wholeheartedly, a follow-up question I would have for you kind of on this topic. Does Canada have magic soil? 'Cause the United States were saying maybe not the case, but I don't know. Canada is doing something. - Apparently so. We've been a very agonho but immigration for a while. But I like the whole breaking down ghettos after 50%. That would get rid of pretty much all of Brampton. - Yeah, Brampton. - The real estate would be great. - Yeah, yeah. So look, I've never believed indeed the whole magic soil thing. I believe that a nation is nothing more than its culture and its people. And I've used that point before. If you took everyone from Congo and you put them in Norway, which is a very rich country, one of the wealthiest country in the world, and you took Alderman Weijens and you prod them in Congo. Within 10 years, Congo is the first world nation and Norway is back to a third world nation. The people make the country. So there's no such thing as magic soil. - Yeah, absolutely. I mean, it's fascinating stuff because, you know, this is a point that I imagine we're gonna make a few times on the show as Canada because it also is sort of a settler colony, like the United States was. Faces a lot of these same sort of existential questions that we have, like, what is an American? You know, it's like a debate, you know, raging really on the right. I think the left has a consensus, which is anyone that says they're an American, but on the right, you know, we're having these conversations. As I understand it, Canada has the exact same questions and is maybe a little further down the road and sort of coming up with the answer to that question. - Yeah, you guys are about 10 years behind us when it comes to that stuff. - But it's a good question because I ask Canadians what is being a Canadian? What is being Canadian? And you know, the number one answer people give is, well, we're not America. And I'm like, wow, 'cause your entire identity is not being another country. But you have to understand again in our history, Canada was deloyalists. There were the guys who wanted to stay with the crown. And interestingly enough, in your first constitution, the Articles of Confederation, there was a clause in there for the province of Quebec at the time to join the union automatically. It was pre-approved, pre-vetted. They never took it, what a shame. But nonetheless, so we've always been a little bit doing our own thing, being closer to the king and the queen or whatever. And we see consensus up there. We're just a nation of consensus, guys. - Everybody's polite. - Oh, God. Yeah, but the problem is that eventually leads to suicidal empathy. - Yeah. - If you're always so inclusive to everyone all the time, you end up being inclusive to the kind of people that won't be inclusive back to you. And eventually these people will get into power and don't be surprised when they come for you. - It's weird seeing this like battered wife, syndrome among Canadians, where President Trump, seemingly, you know, I mean, in my opinion, it was never gonna happen. I mean, to be fair, he was saying it explicitly, but you know, I think everyone felt like in America it wasn't gonna happen, but I'm gonna invade Canada. And it invoked a strong enough reaction among Canadians where they sort of blame Pierre Paulier for like, I don't know, fanning the flames in some way, shape or form, and just re-elected the same government at like a 20% approval rating. - Pierre's problem is he didn't say Trump bad enough. That's really what it seems like it boils down to. He wasn't hostile enough to President Trump. - He was between a rock and a hard place because within a conservative party in Canada, you have a faction that is very pro-America and you have a faction that's very much, we call it elbows up, but it's pro-Canada, it's just Canada, Canada, Canada. So Pierre Paulier at that time kind of got blindsided, I guess, by Trump. And Trump, the only reason we have a liberal party in Canada is because of Trump. And he is the bogeyman by excellence. It is all our media talks about, it's Trump, Trump, Trump. - When you say liberal party, you're talking about left-leaning, right? - Yeah, but you have to understand that in Canada, even our conservative party would probably be a little bit to the left of the Democrats. - They're like, yeah, they're like Bill Clinton. - Yeah. - Yeah, and then the liberals are very liberal. - But you actually know. - And Canada has a Canadian Communist Party as well. I don't know how much influence they have, but they do as well, right? - Yeah, they do. - I mean, our really left-leaning party that tends to get some seats in our parliament is called the NDP. And these guys are cuckoo, they're wack. - Jagname, what a nag. Oh, he's gone now. - I forgot about that guy, yeah. Jagname, yeah. - He's gone now. He got his pension. He kept a liberal party in power for a while, just to get his pension. The second that passed the threshold, he was gone. So, yeah, you can thank him for that. - Respect the grind, just like defraud your country. - Yeah, but you know, we call him a champion socialist, or actually, the name is, we call him a Maserati Marxist. - Ah. - He was pictured coming out of a Maserati. The guy is loaded. - Yeah. - We don't even know why he needs his like $80,000 of your pension, but he wanted it and he's, you know. - It wasn't that what Marjorie Taylor Greene was doing, just like, waiting it out till she got her pension or my misremembering that. - Could be, I don't recall the dynamic at play. I think she was waiting to get her rumble contract. - That's what they're all doing, right? - Yeah, well, we need to keep moving along. I feel like every story we're going to read is just going to deviate back into Canada. It's very rare. We get to like, I don't know, really drilled in on Canada. - Ignore the entire time. - From Reuters, oil prices rise on Saudi Arabia attacks over shadowing Trump's diesel deal, which was a very controversial deal that was discussed over the weekend. Oil prices rose by nearly $2 a barrel on Monday as attacks on Saudi Arabia outweighed the prospect of increased supplies. Even as US President Donald Trump hailed fresh, Russian diesel exports in a Russia Ukraine cease fire on energy targets. Brent Crude futures settled up $1.93 or $1.80. Add $106 a barrel, 107 rounding up, the highest September 15, Texas Intermediate, settled at 93, 74 a barrel. This is in response to the Hooties sort of kicking back up. I think a lot of people thought that that was over. That was a one time thing, turns out to not be the case. It also turns out the Hooties are a lot more capable. We found this a lot over the last few months, a lot more capable than I think people realized. My guess would just be because the Western media started taking them a little bit more seriously because it was part of a larger theater that's involving the United States, fascinating what's happening down there where the Saudis are kind of hung out the dry in a lot of ways. The Iran, Alain, Hooties claimed responsibility for a Saturday strike on Riyadh's international airport that killed 13 people and wounded more than 300. Further attacks happened on Sunday intensifying conflict that could further hamper crude oil supplies from one of the world's biggest provider. Things are getting wacky and wild. Again, I continue to maintain this position that I've had for the last few months that I think this war drags on probably until 2028, certainly well into 2027. It's just the pieces for Brinksmanship are just not there at all. What do you guys think? - I don't know, about 2028. From what I hear about what's going on inside Iran economically, I'm not sure that they can drag it out that long. I think the Riyadh is like $2 million to a dollar now or something, something incredibly crazy. It's like they're experiencing significant hibernation. I'm not sure that I don't think that that means a popular uprising inside of Iran, but I do wonder how long the government can maintain. It's legitimacy with the people. It's like, obviously they do have the stick and that's what they've been using for the past. At least 40 years or what have you? 50 years, 35 years or something like that, 47. So I don't know, but I don't think that, I don't think there's gonna be any significant escalation by the US either because I think aside from the straight, or from the straight or our moves, the US has kind of achieved the goals that they wanted. They sunk Iran's navy, they have no functional navy. They've taken out a significant amount of their ability to project any kind of power. They can still shoot missiles, but if they actually had a significant military capability, would they really be relying on the Houthis to do things? They have the Houthis attacking the Saudis. They're not shooting missiles at Israel the way that they were before. They're not shooting missiles at US bases like they were before. Now again, I'm not saying that I'm some kind of, I have some kind of deep knowledge on what Iran has not used or has in reserve. But most of the bombings from the United States have kind of ended because the US is kind of taken out most of the low hanging fruit. And the US doesn't really want to start going after a significant infrastructure and really put an even greater, or put greater pressure on the average Iranian citizen. - Look, the midterms are kind of a wash for this topic now. How much of a conversation do you think this ends up being for the 2028 election? - I mean, I think it's pretty realistic that, you know, let's say it's a crowded Republican field. And there's, let's say it's JD Vance, right? And Rubio gets out of the way. It creates this dynamic if it's a crowded field and there's viable competitors to Vance that he's going to probably have the distance himself from this war. Again, polling right now, certainly very unpopular among the American people, a lot more popularity within their Republican party. How much of that is just people trust Trump versus are thrilled with the war? It's hard to say. But, you know, JD Vance, for example, and we're going into a primary, he's going to need to probably distance himself from the war if it's continuing on. And so the cycle, because then when he goes into the general, he's going to the answer for that with the Democrat. I think he might take a line. If, again, the hypothetical if this work stretches out until that, you know, primary season, I see him taking a line of, like, you know, I wasn't crazy on it, but, you know, you know, I'm just doing my job. Like that sort of thing. - It's going to be compelling or not. - It's going to be the first question asked of any Republican that announces and you're looking at six months, eight months until they start really announcing. And before they actually start making the move. So, unless they can wrap this up before spring, they're going to, the people that are, you know, prospectively running for president on the Republican side, they're going to have to have a good answer for it. - What's Trump's play then? Like, he doesn't seem like he needs to care. - It's going great. Everything's wonderful. - We want everything. - He did everything we wanted to do. Right now, the oil is flowing through the general or it doesn't matter what's really going on. He's just going to talk. - The word on the street, right? The rumors is that Trump's going to escalate after the midterms. 'Cause this is, again, some reporting indicates that this is him and we have an election coming up mode. So that's like the volume of, of, you know, offense that we're playing right now. - That's a problem too. If destabilization leads to the problems we're having with gas prices right now, you know, the instability in the region makes it harder for this to, you know, oil to make its way here, whatever it is. That's a problem. Like because they're going to be even more unpopular and that just means he doesn't care about who's going to be taking over in 2028 'cause likely they're going to have to come down on the opposite side of this issue anyways and they've kind of accepted that beforehand. - I think all of it though is about China, all right? So this is all about cornering China and making sure they don't get to oil anymore. 'Cause China's probably the biggest threat to the US, more so than Russia, by the way. I don't understand why people freak out about Russia all the time. - So now with Venezuela? - Because of their nuclear missile, their alleged nuclear missile arsenal. - I mean China has those two, right? - We do, but Russia has more nuclear missiles than any other country. Again, if they launch, I mean, I don't know for sure. How, I don't know what kind of maintenance they've kept up since the end of the Cold War, but go ahead and sorry. - But ultimately now with the deal with Venezuela, I think he's making the entire world dependent on US oil. You're ramping up production here in the US. You obviously got in Canada, Alberta is producing a lot and who knows, that 51st state might be real. What a hell knows. But you most importantly, you have Venezuela to first prove an oil reserve in the world. If he enables the entire world to reroute and to take it from the US, now I think there's more cargo ships going through the Gulf of America, slash Mexico, wherever you are in the world. Well, the world now is becoming dependent on the US and this is huge. China right now is lost by the way, they used to get everything from Venezuela and Iran. And that's gone. So China is struggling to get the proper amount of oil for their military and their population in general. - This is what a best sent was saying. Can't remember which press pool he was in, but he was saying something along the lines of China or Iran would run out of oil to sell to China here in the next few weeks, which is quite interesting. I mean, yeah, I think that was an impetus for the United States. There's kind of this discussion surrounding Iran, why do we go in, et cetera. And I think there's like two obvious sort of indicators of why that was the time to go in from the perspective of the Trump administration is one is sort of, there's a lot of China hawks and the administration, especially in the Pentagon. You look at like Elbridge Colby. I mean, this guy probably just pushups in front of a picture of Xi Jinping every night. I mean, this guy is a total China hawk, which is fine by me. I think China's very big threat. But then the obvious, the elephant in the room, the Israelis who have been eyeing up Iran now for their entire existence as a state, they've been wanting to take the Iranians off the table because that allows them regional hegemony because it takes out his bolla, takes out Hamas, keeps the red sea open, takes out the hootsies. So it's kind of this storm where you probably did have an Israel lobby weighing on Trump saying, now's the time. Let's go in, the infamous Mark Rubio quote, where he's basically indicating that the timing wasn't on there. Schedule, the Israelis sort of made the decision to when to go in. But it must be said, it's not just a straightforward to say it was just Israel. I think the United States had an overlapping interest, which was to your point. They felt like maybe now is the time to contain Iran for Israel's sakes, sure, but also behalf of sort of the China hawks and then sort of containing China. And this is why I think it's interesting, is if you look at sort of the way the United States is going to have to maneuver, they're going to have to have this question of is our alliance relationship, et cetera, with Israel beneficial for a anti-China posture, right? Because a lot of the Gulf States, for example, the Saudis, 99% disapproval for the Abraham Accords now. And that was kind of what we, you know, if we were to develop an anti-China posture in the Middle East, that would be the only way to keep Israel in the equation and build up that posture was the Abraham Accords. Get all the, the SUNY states on the same page. That's gone. October 7th completely sort of ruined the prospects of the Abraham Accords coming about. So the United States, probably going to be in this position where it's like, hey, if you want the Saudis, the guitarries, the Emirates, it's et cetera, you want them all on board. You're probably going to have to make some tough decisions regarding our relationship with Israel. So it's going to be a fascinating, fascinating next few years as specifically the Intel community decides on what to do about China. And I guess a lot of it depends on how Iran sort of wraps up, but it's fascinating. - It's funny that you mentioned the popular support for the Abraham Accords in Saudi Arabia. It's a good thing they were monarchy. - Yeah, well, that's true monarchy too. - Yeah, well, I guess it all depends. I mean, you had to look at what happens in Netanyahu, right? I mean, Netanyahu is under a lot of pressure. And when this, you know, like if you look at what was happening as people don't realize this, people think Israel is much more straightforward than it's a very chaotic place. And if you look at what was happening in Israel leading up to October 7th, they were on the brink of a civil war. I mean, people don't realize this. Israel was quite literally on the brink of like a full-blown civil war as a very unstable country at the time. And then October 7th happens, you know, people speculate what exactly went down there, but from the thousand-foot picture, it happens nationally unity occurs and then they go to war. Again, a very bizarre situation that they were really close to the brink. And who knows what would have happened there? Instead, now we have a situation where Netanyahu has carried on and now we're heading into this current situation where from my perspective, I don't think Netanyahu wants this war with Iran to end until it resolves and regime change. I think for the Israelis, regime change is the only acceptable outcome of the war where for the United States, they'd be perfectly happy. Just sort of, they call it cutting the grass, right? Moan the lawn. I think the Americans are happy with that arrangement. But yeah, the Israelis, as we saw with the MOU, you know, a few months ago, have the ability to derail negotiations, right? Like JD Vance had this deal on the table and then the Israeli sort of bombing Southern Lebanon. So this is, I think why a lot of people are really upset when Trump went into Iran 'cause we're like, we're gonna be in this situation. It's tempting, sure, from the, certainly from the Intel Community's perspective, but nine times out of 10, it's getting up and it's sort of quasi-quagmire, which is where we are. Yeah, I mean, I think the American people actually, look, the American people tolerated kind of the moan of the grass, airstrikes thing over Iraq for over a decade after the first Iraq war. The American people have shown that they're pretty comfortable with the US military flying over other countries and dropping bombs. They don't wanna see caskets coming home full of American kids. So as long as the United States doesn't have a significant ground operation trying to go into Iran, I honestly think that obviously, the people that are involved in politics, the people that, the people that watch this show, the people that are politically aware, they're gonna have strong opinions one way or the other about it. People in the beltway are gonna have strong opinions, but your average person in Omaha or people that live in Minnesota or what have you, right? Like, if it doesn't affect them, and their gas prices don't go crazy, for the most part, Americans will be like, I'm going to work, I got bills to pay. Because you don't see them, and that's only if you don't see Americans coming home in body bags. If you start seeing a lot of Americans coming home in body bags, all bets are off. But the historically, the American population is pretty comfortable with the US just flying over countries and dropping bombs. I mean, drone strikes, all that stuff is kind of par for the course now in the American psyche and it has been for the better part of two-decade, three-decade. - It's status quo at this point, right? - Yeah. - And it's how Empire works. I mean, we're the Empire, obviously. This is what happened in the British. I mean, they were kind of coasting long, perfectly satisfied with sort of what the Victorian version of going long looked like until the Boor Wars. And then that's when they started to see a lot of casualties, again, a lot of men coming home. And while it wasn't like body bags, it was caskets, but it had a serious effect on the British psyche. And you saw them have, this is the more of what they started pushing towards the minions, which led to Canada, obviously, and other things. But in regards to Iran, I mean, yeah. You know, Phil pointed out kind of the difference, the X-factor here is the fuel prices. I mean, this is ultimately, I think, why Americans are upset is because, you know, Trump, the way he's conducted foreign policy, is very much a kind of old school. Like, well, let's get something out of it. I'm not interested in spreading liberal democracy. I'm interested in, you know, bringing home, you know, goodies for the American people. This seemed like an ideological war in a lot of ways. I mean, I do understand the geopolitical component to it, but in a lot of ways, it felt like it was a long time coming. I mean, we've been talking about going to war Iran for 50 years now. People are upset that it's actually costing the American people to conduct this war. I mean, we're seeing with the oil prices. And that's why that Russia was, Russia deal was fascinating. It's like what two and a half million barrels of diesel were buying from the Russians. I mean, a lot of it gets applied to the global market. But you see that, you see the fact that this cease fire that was, you know, allegedly signed between the Ukrainians and Russians are just purely over energy infrastructure. The obvious question is, are the Americans anticipating sustained high fuel prices? Are they maybe, if you're cutting a deal with the Russians, I think that indicates that there could be a potential ramp up in the conflict after the midterms. - But what's crazy right now is that the fuel prices are artificial, right? Because you've been dumping oil from your strategic oil reserve, which is almost depleted now, which I think is-- - What was ever. - Yeah. - Which is a crisis for the US, especially considering, you know, your biggest military force in the world, you need oil to run-- - We don't have to bolt with the last hurricane, but if that was a direct hit, eating squirrels in the house. - Yeah. (laughing) - So the question's, how long can he keep going? Because again, Americans are saying "K price is expensive," and it is. I mean, let me tell you, it's even worse in Canada. But again, it's artificially lowered and it should be. And if you guys run out of oil and that reserve, what happens? - That's a great point. I mean, the entire globe right now is dumping their reserves. The entire energy market right now is propped up by governments doing everything they can, again, at the global level, doing everything they can to keep fuel prices low. That's the terrifying thing. The question is, how long can we sustain it? With the amount of fuel the United States has in the reserve right now, that gives you about two weeks of commercial use, which is nothing. Again, I mean, again, if something serious happens, like I haven't had a better hurricane or just, again, sustained, low imports, you know. (laughing) We're in, again, like disaster territory. - It also sends a message to any adversaries. Because if there was a country out there, and I don't know which one right now, let's say China, whatever, that wants to make a move on the US, even if it's like a small kind of like geographical move far away from the US. Not saying you're gonna have your homeland invaded here, but they realize the US can't really do much because you're running out of oil. You can't really support it. Unless, of course, the American people are willing to support prices that are 20, 30, 40, maybe 50% higher. And now you're really gonna hit at home. That's gonna be bad. - Absolutely. I mean, what we've seen that certainly the Iranians have auspices in the United States abroad. I mean, you know, there was reporting, I think it was this morning. It might have been yesterday. Burnham, Andy Burnham at a Britain, he was saying that it looks like RAF airfield, there was the Iranian fingerprints all over it. Again, the involvement of the RGC remains to be seen, but if Burnham's getting out ahead of it and saying it looks like the Iranians might have been involved in some way, shape or form, I think that's sort of labor speak for, yeah, they're involved. And so if the Iranians are in this position where I would imagine those were sleeper cells of some sort, you know, with the border as open as it was for four years, it begs the question, okay, how many of those guys are in the United States? You know, how many of those guys are ready to, you know, walk over to a power plant and do something, you know, do something drastic? Again, you have to start thinking like that. We're in that situation. - And what does, that's the point, I think, Americans really understand under Biden at the time, you know, saying, okay, the border needs to be shut down. That's the reason why. Because if you don't vet people coming in, you don't know what can be set up. And like you said, with sleeper cells, if and when and hopefully never, but if they get activated, the damage is on domestic soil. - Look, you could have, you could easily have with how many illegals cross the border during the Biden administration. You could easily have 10, 20,000 people spread out throughout across the United States that have nefarious intent, we would say. And considering the numbers, it's a small fraction of the people that came in. So it's not like, oh man, there's no way that many people came in. And there was at least 10 million people that were led in during the Biden administration illegally. Possibly more, the number that I hear the most is 20 million. - You know, I do think that is that Americans seem to dismiss the possibility of something like that happening so much. - Because it hasn't. - Just last time any foreign power laid a lick on the motherland, the homeland right there would have been the Japanese with the, - No, September 11th. - Well, yeah, but that wasn't like a direct, you know, this is the country declaring war and then they've-- - Like a nation-state kind of thing. - Yeah, yeah. I think the last one had been the Japanese like lighting a forest on fire in World War II. (laughing) - Yeah, I mean, 9/11 I think gives people this idea that like, you know, terrorism can happen in a given moment. But as far as like we're at war and then all of a sudden the country at war at laid a lick on us, that's a completely but not even the idea of being at war with another country but just a terrorist cell from any nation, whether you're at war or not, you know, having any type of attack on America. Americans seemingly have dismissed that. At least the ones who aren't harsh on immigration have dismissed the possibility of something like that happening. And kind of it's because the discussion on immigration always comes back to empathy and always comes back to America. of bending over backwards to help out those less fortunate, while ignoring the possibility of something really, really dangerous happening. And it's funny too, 'cause we were talking about it earlier today is like, why do you think it's possible that the Democrats take on immigration's change so drastically in the last 15 to 20 years? Well, it was economic at that time because the Democrats had a different voting block than they do now. But in a lot of ways, it's like this discussion has become, maybe it's because we never found WMDs, so people thought that they kind of got taken for a ride in that way. Where it's like, they don't imagine it can happen. Therefore, they don't think of it as a threat, so leave the borders open and who cares? Yeah, I mean, this is kind of the, they had this problem in Europe when Russia moved in on Ukraine, is a lot of the leaders in Germany and Western Europe broadly were trying to whip up this idea, which may or may not have been like, you know, reasonable, that look, we can be invaded at any moment and we should react accordingly. Now, obviously, since they're quite left-wing, the response wasn't well as beef up our military. It was just, well, let's try to get the Americans to pay for everything. But it kind of got to the point where a lot of people in the first world and the developed world haven't quite wrapped their mind around the idea that like we could just have conflict within our borders in any given moment. And, you know, we're at War of Iran and then they deploy against some sort of sleeper cell, attack in the United States. Suddenly, that's the first time we've received an attack from a, you know, belligerent in a war in, you know, 100 years. So, but people can't wrap their heads around that. Same people in Europe can barely wrap their heads around that. Well, the thing is, we're indeed a Pax Americana right now, right, a great American piece since World War II. There hasn't been a worldwide conflict or any threat to America, to North American general. So you have generations, entire generations that grew up in a prosperous, safe environment and they fail to realize that their forefathers fought and died to be able to grant them that privilege. But that needs to be protected. That needs to be taken and cherished because it can happen. If it's happened before, history will repeat itself. I mean, so I agree that there could be some kind of infiltration right by like sleeper cells or what have you. But the idea of a substantive military attack on the United States, that is a question of logistics that only a couple of countries in the world could actually do, the United States being one of them. And nobody could do it without the United States knowing. We still have a massive advantage just because of the way that the world is, right? The Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, both of our, both of the coasts have massive mountain ranges that basically protect the interior. The Appalachians aren't as big as the Rockies, but it's still a significant barrier. You're not gonna see a massive army rolling down from Canada into the United States, into Montana, in tank country, or through North and South Dakota and have just Americans just watch these vehicles go by like it happened in Ukraine, right? There are geographical reasons why the United States is basically untouchable. And you do also have to throw in the fact that the American public is very well armed. I mean, we have more guns than we have people. We have more guns per capita than any other country. And we're a foreign army actually be able to get the logistical means necessary and get people on the border to actually drive into the US, like they're going to be met very quickly by yes, regular military forces. But one of the things that you tend to do if you're an invading army is you try to subdue the population. And that's just not gonna happen. You can't, you're not gonna disarm the American people. I mean, look at the effort that the US had to put in disarming the Afghans. And the Afghans, you know, they had weapons, but they were not nearly the, you know, equipped like the, like the average United States, you know, gun guy, you know. So it's the idea of some kind of invasion into the US or something like that. It's not gonna happen. You could see sleeper cells. You could see terror attacks. Unquestionably, that's not, that's completely within the realm of reality. You can see significant attacks. You could see even things like balloons coming over, dropping bombs or something like that. But it's not gonna be a situation where a massive army's gonna land in the Gulf and the, or, or, of course, you know, send cutters up the Mississippi, you know, that's not happening. - For sure, to your point, what you're talking about, there's power projection. And only the US has it. Even China does not have power projection. I mean, they would struggle to take Taiwan, which is off their coast. They would suffer massive casualty. So let alone go across an ocean. - They only have like two carriers. I mean, they don't have to. - Yeah, yeah, there's Britain has two carriers. - Yeah, there's no country in the world that can touch a US. That's for sure, on a more conventional front. The problem now is more the unconventional front. - Cyber attack, terror. - That's, that's where I would see vulnerabilities is just sort of panicking in the United States. Right, I don't think that's your point. No one's touching the homeland. I mean, everyone's armed. - But also information warfare. Like the way America's portrayed to the rest of the world is already where our own worst enemy in a lot of ways in that respect. 'Cause, you know, a lot of countries dislike America just on principle in a lot of ways. And then we tend to do, you know, we put ourselves in a position to be disliked. And that's very dangerous as well, beyond just being attacked on your own soil. It's how you're perceived by the rest of the world. 'Cause the world runs on trade. The world runs on relationships between countries, between people, so. - Well, Phil brought up the point that, you know, part of the X factor for the United States is the fact that everyone's armed. And the ATF has made it slightly easier for gun owners here. This is a fascinating story that was put on my desk five minutes before I went to the show. I should have to go live for the show. ATF changes suppressor rules for gun owners. Under this guidance, the ATF will no longer enforce prior approval, registration and tax stamp requirements for suppressors. - So for the people that are unaware, last year in the Big Beautiful Bill, there was a provision that would remove short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, any other weapons and suppressors, they would take the tax away, right? So there used to be a $200 tax you had to pay, you had to send the stuff into the ATF, the ATF would give you the stamp that said you paid the tax. This was the premise of the registration for most NFA items. The only thing that's left in the NFA now are machine guns and destructive devices. Anything basically like things that are like bombs or hand grenades or whatever, 'cause those you can actually own as well, you do have to have a tax stamp for each one and they're a hassle. But any rifle that has a barrel length under 16 inches and a shotgun, I believe it's under 18 inches and they have a random category for any other weapons and suppressors, you'd have a $200 tax stamp. The $200 fee for the stamp was removed. So then you still had the registration, but the Supreme Court has heard cases against the NFA saying, hey, this is an infringement on the Second Amendment and the argument that was presented to the court and that they found compelling was always that this isn't about regulating the weapons, it's a $200 fee for the tax stamp. So when you make the stamp, make the stamp, you know, $0 fee, I believe it was in Texas where they argued, look, without the fee, the constitutionality of this is evaporated, right? The argument was the $200 is why they could do it and the judge found that that was the case. He said, yeah, without the $200 fee, there is no tax. That means that it's not under Congress's taxing power. You can't have a registration for guns, a federal registration for guns, the tax stamp is gone, so you don't have to have it. Now, this was a couple of weeks ago when the judge actually made this decision and there was a question as to whether the Trump administration was going to appeal, they didn't appeal, and so we were waiting on the ATF to give guidance because everybody's like, well, you know, I don't want to become a felon. I don't remember what the fee was, but you could get up to 10 years in prison for having an NFA item without a tax stamp port. So the ATF released guidance, I believe it was Friday and basically said, look, we're not going to enforce this for anyone. Initially, it was just the people in the suit because another judge had said that we were getting rid of blanket injunctions, right? That was a couple, I think it was last year, a judge says, it's only the parties involved in the lawsuit that are actually going to be given relief, no more blanket injunctions nationwide. So only the people, scientists shop, GOA and a handful of other, handful of states, I think there's like 13 states that were a part of it, and they were the people that were going to be covered under this. And everyone else was still going to have to do the jumping through the hoops or that's what we assumed. But the ATF has said, nope, we're not doing it for anybody. For continuity. Essentially, they're not going to be giving out, they still allow you to register your NFA stuff if you want with the zero tax, zero dollar tax and amp or whatever, and that's for people that are worried about possible future administration changing this, because anything that's done budgetary, or any kind of fees or anything like that. All Congress has to do is pass up a $1 tax and say, okay, you have to pay the tax and then the NFA will be back into effect for those particular items. But right now in, I think it's 38 states, maybe 36. You don't have to file any paperwork to own a suppressor. You don't have to do, no, I'm sorry. You have to do your normal 4473, which is the background check. But you don't have to file any other federal paperwork aside from your background check to buy a suppressor from any FFL. You can sell them to friends. You can sell by them, you know, if your state allows it, there are some states that have NFA requirements or some legislation about whether or not the NFA paperwork has to be filled out for the state. I think Washington, you have to have NFA paperwork to have these things. There are some other states where there are, you know, issues with it, some states ban NFA items outright. But in most of the country, you don't have to fill out NFA paperwork to buy short-brow rifles, short-brow shotguns and destructive vices and silencers. Now this is a really big deal because it's the first serious change of the NFA in over 100 years, right? So the NFA, I believe it was, or almost 100 years. I think it was 1934, I mean, I probably got that wrong. But it's a significant rollback of federal gun laws. And that's something that, you know, we haven't seen, I mean, in 90 years or something like that. So it's a big deal. - How do you feel about, you know, 'cause there's been a lot of conversations about Trump's record this year, you know, like how people feel he's doing. It's been a huge point of contention. How did gun owners see both it? 'Cause I know bump stocks were a big part of the first administration. Donald Trump is the most pro-to-a president we have ever had. So it was a Trump appointee that found in favor of the plaintiffs in this particular case. It was Trump appointed attorney general that's decided that they're not going to push the issue and appeal. It was the Trump appointed director of the ATF that came out with this guidance. And it was Donald Trump himself who told his attorney general, don't appeal. So it was specifically from Donald Trump. I've heard from multiple people at GOA and people at silence a shop that said, Donald Trump himself told the attorney general, don't appeal the decision. - One of the criticisms of him was about red flag laws, right? My misremembering that. - Donald Trump's not perfect. - Yeah. - And a lot of times he'll speak, everybody knows, he'll speak without, you know, kind of just off the cuff. And Donald Trump's not a gun guy, right? I believe Donald Jr.'s a gun guy. - Oh yeah, he's always out hunting. - Yeah. And so, Donald Jr.'s the guy that's a little more plugged in. - Trump's the higher a gun guy. - Yeah, probably, probably, go get him. But yeah, so Donald Trump's not a gun guy. So you asked Donald Trump a question about something and he's going to come off with a knee jerk reaction. And on the bump stocks, you know, he said something that was, you know, it was a bad call for gun owners. But at the same time, the Supreme Court has found that forced reset triggers are perfectly legal, right? And a forced reset trigger is a significantly better option if you want to imitate full auto fire than a bump stock, right? There was also the red flag law thing. I want to get the guns first, get due process later. But again, that was Donald Trump talking off the cuff. He hadn't probably had not discussed any of that with anyone in a gun group or with anyone that has a signal, any deeper knowledge than a teaspoon, you know? So he said some bad things, absolutely. But the proof is in him saying, look, don't appeal this and the director that he has, this is a crazy sentence, but director cicada is a great ATF director. Now, I never thought that I would have anything nice to say about anybody that worked at the ATF ever. But he's gone on, he was on Brennan Herrera's channel, talking to Brennan Herrera. Now, I think that because Brennan Herrera is looking like he might take the congressional seat there in Texas, I think that might have helped get the director on his podcast, but at the same time, you know, he's on a gun tubers podcast, answering questions and telling people, you know, look, this is what we're trying to do. So credit to him, the guidance is absolutely, it's actually better than we had hoped, you know? It's because I didn't think that they would just say, you know what, everybody, don't worry about it for now. There are things that you might have to deal with in the future, future legislation can change this, a new director can change this, but for now, you don't have to worry about it. So it's fantastic, it's fantastic stuff to see something in government shrinking in size. That's the question. I mean, what's the gun situation in Canada? Yeah, it's horrible. You guys would have a heart attack. I'm a gun owner, I have a license. It's nearly impossible to get a gun first and foremost. And it's too bad because we're a nation of proud, like, we have a proud heritage of gun owners. Yeah. And since 1995, we had a shooting at a school, at a university, and then they brought forth some of the craziest gun laws ever. And then recently, the liberal party in 2020 started using our version of executive orders to ban guns. So we have classifications of guns. We have non-restricted, which are like shock guns and like your hunting rifle restricted, which is going to be your, like, AR-15s and your pistols, and then prohibited. That's like an AK-47. So prohibited, you can touch it. But non-restricted and restricted, you can get a license, two different licenses, like an escalating level of like tests and courses need to do. Now, I was an AR-15 owner. I had a restricted firearm. I owned pistols as well. And overnight, through signing that what we call an OICN order and council, they banned it completely overnight. They reclassified it, making it prohibited. So I became a criminal overnight, legally speaking criminal. But they put an amnesty in place, saying, I can't be prosecuted until they create a buyback. And now they've been trying for six years to do a buyback. It ain't working out. They earmarked, I think, $200 million. Now it's over a billion dollars. Not a single gun was bought back yet. It's an entire boondoggle. But they've done that after that, with 1,500 other firearms. Right now, most of my guns are prohibited. They're paperweight. I'm not allowed to use them. I'm not allowed to take them now out of my house. And already, our laws are pretty strict. Like, you can only go to the range with them. They need to be locked, trigger locked, case lock, your name, and amnesty separated. But no, situation's bad. And I love listening to you guys talk about guns. Keep your guns. Don't give an inch, because they will take a mile. Believe me, they will. Is it varied by province? I mean, is Alberta as a little looser than Ontario? No, so that's regulated by the criminal code of Canada, which is federal. Except Quebec, as usual, we're special. We added. We tacked on a nexial layer. So we have something called law 9. So you need a nexia course done. And you need to be a member of a gun range. If you're not, they come and take your guns. Then on top of that, the last conservative government back in 2010 scrapped what we call the long gun registry. So even your non-resistant guns, like your shotguns and whatnot, they were registered at the time. Then they scrapped that. So no more registration. Well, Quebec turned around and said, screw it. We're going to force registration into province only. So a lot of Quebec gun owners start buying guns. And Ontario, bring them to Quebec and not registering them. Now, that's technically still illegal. It's not criminal, because the criminal code is federal. So unlike here, where some states have their own criminal code and you have your federal code too, us is just Canada-wide, but it's still a civil penalty. So it'll find you several thousands of dollars and confiscate your guns or property if you don't register them. - So it's so fascinating hearing other, I mean, I was talking to Australia about the same thing recently and it's like, as late as the '90s, they had gun laws basically on par with us. And this is what it sounds like with Canada's. If you go back to the 1970s, probably just as easy as a time buying a firearm in Canada versus here, just to see the total embrace. It makes you thankful for the United States that the 2A is so rigid. 'Cause I don't think that we're uniquely special compared to Australia or Canada. It's just our forefathers have the foresight to make it untouchable in the constitution, which gives us a lot of leeway. I think that's absolutely fantastic. I mean, Phil, does this sound like a read-like-to-go, Canada? - Canada, no. Well, I mean, I've been to Canada a lot. And the Canadian people are great. It's a great time to go out there and play shows and stuff. I have friends that it is possible to go up there and go hunting and stuff. I think you have the borrow guns. I don't think you can bring guns across the-- - You can, but they fall within our regulation. So, for example, if it's a short barrel rifle or a shotgun, then it would be prohibited. But if you have a good old bolt action, you can definitely bring it just paperwork to do what you're allowed to bring in. - So, yeah, I mean, I don't intend to, I mean, there's states that I won't live in, you know, because of gun laws. So, I'm certainly not looking to renounce my US citizenship and to move to Canada. I'm not particularly fond of the cold. Although, I mean, look, you know, being from New Hampshire, where we're not that far from the Canadian border and we get about the same-- - You probably have cousins. I mean, LeBonte, you probably-- - Oh, I have family that my great-great-grandfather came down from Canada. - Yeah, so you guys are probably like six cousins or something? - Maybe. - Maybe. - Maybe. - There's not that much relative-- - Not that many of you guys. Yeah, but uh, but yeah, I mean you am sure you said right? Yeah. I mean, I'm from Massachusetts originally I like my I live in New Hampshire now. Yeah. I love that state model. I live free or die. Yeah, you know, you know, and you know, of all the states, like New Hampshire consistently, uh, clocks in at the the freest or the second freest, depending, depending on your metric or whatever. But you know, the, uh, the free state is a New Hampshire, the libertarians up there. They're the real good libertarians. They're, they're, they're fiercely protective of their rights, um, and they're smart. They've done, they've done what, you know, what you should do, which is find the most viable political vehicle and get yourself and your friends elected and, uh, and, and pass laws that suit your political, uh, preferences. So like the free stateers, the free stateers have put a lot of pressure and, and believe me, there's a lot of, a lot of progressives that had moved to, to New Hampshire from Massachusetts because they didn't like paying Massachusetts tax, but they kept voting like they were from Massachusetts. The free stateers came in and they started running and they've done, done absolutely wonderful things. There's only a handful of, not even a handful. There's a very few, actual gun laws in New Hampshire and, and usually those are, uh, a fishing game laws. They're not, uh, they're not about actually, you know, prohibitions on what you can care. You can own anything you want in New Hampshire. They don't basically don't have gun laws. There's, you know, no permit or anything to carry a gun concealed. You know, you can own, there are more machine guns in New Hampshire than any per capita than any other state. So I love that legal, legally owned machine guns. I think it's right. And you can tell the Libertarian Party in New Hampshire was doing so well because they got kicked out of the net. Yes, they did. That's winning too much. That's right. They were, they were too, uh, too based for, for, uh, the actual Cooked Libertarian party. Well, we're going to move, or we're going to grab another ad here. I do want to grab some of these super jets that were coming in. Um, why at Kaldinburg says, "Tate in World War Two, Japan occupied the Western Aleutian islands for over a year. They executed the Americans who were living there. There were battles too." Yeah, you're like really far out. But yeah, in the Western Aleutians, the Japanese, there was skirmishes with the Americans. Um, as far as on the mainland, the, the little, kind of unknown, the Japanese were able to launch a balloon. Um, and it ended up lighting a forest on fire in Oregon. I don't think anyone got, I think a firefighter got hurt. I think it was the only casualty on the American mainland. The Japanese were very impolite to the Americans in the, in the 40s. Yeah, you know, not impolite. It's, and, and, and, you know, how far they've come. Yeah. With Hello Kitty and, and they're surely showing underwear. Like a balloon full of plague flees over here. Really? Yeah, they were doing these like cartoon, cartoonish like, like, like, setting traps, you know, like, dropping balloons. Why? Thanos from balloons and stuff. Why Lee Coyote, shit, you know, yeah, it's really wacky and wild. Um, also, let's see, this is from. D. B. Dore, uh, he says, R. I. P. R. J. Mitty, A. K. Walter Flynn, white junior, gone far too. He was the guy from, uh, what was it, um, breaking bad, breaking bad. I've never seen it. The sun, you know, he, uh, believe he had cerebral palsy and he obviously had cerebral palsy in the show as well. And, uh, it's a really sad story. I don't, I don't want to, uh, say too much about it because I'm hearing things. Um, but yeah, 34 years old, you know, living with cerebral palsy is rough. I, I can't imagine that kind of, uh, you know, how, how tough that is, but, uh, you know, my thoughts are with his, uh, family and friends. So, um, that's horrible. Well, on that note, we're going to capitalize and run an ad real quick. And then we'll join you guys for the second half of the show. Keet.io. Head over to keet.io/timcast.iol and download it. Here's an uncomfortable question for you, Mary. Why, why, why should your messaging app need to know anything about you? Why does it have your phone, your phone number and your, your email address? You don't need none of that. I don't know. That makes me really uncomfortable. That's right. It does. Most of us have already except the technology companies collect enormous amounts of information, what we click, where we go, what we buy, who we interact with. What information is valuable because your attention, I'm sorry, that information is valuable because your attention is valuable. Keet takes a radically different approach. Keet is a free messaging file sharing and video calling app built peer-to-peer. There's no centralized company database holding your conversations, no metadata tracking, no phone number or email required. Your messages are end to end encrypted and move between the people in the conversation. Your private life shouldn't be another crop in somebody else's data farm. So visit keet.io/timcast.io download it for free, invite a friend and you can share stuff, start a conversation that belongs to you. This was a stat that I did not believe when he told me, so I had to look it up and you weren't lying. You're just worthy guy, so I'd probably should assume that. This is from Vaz. This is all over. This is just a random outlet I picked out here. More euthanasia deaths in Canada than gun homicides in the United States. That is stunning because we hear what's going on at the mid. You broke your leg and they try to kill you or whatever. When you put it into that context, something that Americans have this perception is very widespread, which it is, is gun homicides and then the Canadians are at the hands of the government. I mean, this is unbelievable stuff. Yeah. Well, that's the state of Canada nowadays. It's easier to off people than it is to fix the issues we have in our country. Look, initially I think it came from a compassionate place. It was supposed to be for people with terminal illness that were, you know, compassionate end of life as we called it. They were suffering and they just couldn't take it anymore. I get that. It's mutated now into a off ramp for anyone and for any reason. And at a point right now, we're discussing an apartment that they want to be able to offer made to people with mental illness. The people the most vulnerable to this entire thing they want to offer to them. But the reality is that, and it's going to sound so grim, our healthcare system is so overloaded. And now with the boomers getting a little bit older, retiring and requiring more medical care, the system can't accommodate it. So there's rumors, and I can't vouch and confirm this, but there's rumors that it's just a tool used to be able to offload or to lesser the burden on the medical system in Canada. It certainly seems, I mean, this is what I've seen on Twitter at least, you know, it's neither here nor there, but people saying it's for the more costly your medical bills are going to be some sort of computer and the medical office spits out. Kill this guy. It's like a math problem. Well, this is the argument that that the conservatives were making about in America. We're making about the ACA here in like 2012. You know, the idea that it was turned into a boogie man of death panels, right? You know, who's going to decide? But the reality is there's a limited number of doctors. There's a limited number of, or there's a limited amount of, you know, services that can be given out. And as boomers get older, they're going to be taking, you know, they're going to be looking at, okay, who is likely to last longest air? Are we going to extend this person's life by two years and spend this much money? The end of life care is where the vast majority of your lifetime expense on health care will be, right? You're going to spend, if you spend just for easy numbers, if you spend $100,000 on health care in your entire life, you're going to spend like 80 of it most likely in the last two to five years, trying to extend your life by a couple years. Nowadays with our system, although it's expensive, people, not everybody, and people have to deal with insurance, companies, and stuff, but you have the option, and it's not something that the government's involved in. If you have a single payer system, the government gets a say, you know, and there are, there's also the arguments about, hey, look, you know, if you're going to live on a healthy lifestyle, why should I pay for your health care? I know Canadians don't have the same kind, so don't have as extreme weight problems. We're getting there. We're getting there right behind. Yeah, you know, it is a reality of, like, look, if we're paying for your health care, then the government, the people are going to have a say in what you're allowed to eat, you know, how much you exercise, because exercise in diet or major, you know, factors in how over, how healthy you are overall. And these are realities that can't be seen. Obviously, medical assistance in dying is a different animal than just health care overall, but the question does become well, is it worth saving this person's life? Is it, you know, how long can we really expect to extend their life, because they've got 60 years of treating their body like it's a party, and now they're 75 and they're falling apart, can we get them to 80? How much is it going to cost to get them to 80? And that calculation becomes real when the government is actually making that, and you're seeing it in Canada, obviously extending down to basically anyone they can get, anyone that feels like they want to, you know, end their life, the government's like step right up. Yeah, no, it's completely messed up, and I know it is a big push from the left in America to have a single pair system like Canada. My advice, don't do it. It's horrible. I had the chance to live in the US. I lived in Florida for a couple years, and I had the chance to use the American health care system, and it blew my mind, it blew my mind. I was at a gym, I busted my shoulder, so I'm like, I need to go see a doctor, and I thought, okay, just like in Canada, I'm going to have to go and wait hours in the hospital, like the emergency room. Instead, I called the primary care physician, [BLANK_AUDIO] told me right away, come tomorrow 9am. That was mind blown. Like tomorrow, next day appointment, sure. So I go in and I start talking to the doctor next day and I'm rushing through it, right? I'm speeding through it 'cause I'm used to being treated like a number, like cattle in Canada where they have five minutes of talk to you onto the next. She stopped me and she's like, slow down, slow down. She started asking me about my history, family history, medical history. I was like, wow, you're training me like a human being. So then she looks at me, examines me, takes a whole half hour and then she tells me, look, I'm gonna have to send you to imaging. You need an MRI. So I'm like, okay, how does it work? She's like, I'm gonna send a script out. They'll contact you to book an appointment. So, okay. I drive back home, five minutes while driving back home, I get a call. Hey, this is Boy's Imaging Center. Am I talking to Elliot? Yeah, that's me, what's up? So, this is to book an appointment. When are you available? So I said, what's the soonest appointment you have? Expecting two, three, four weeks maybe. She's like, how about nine p.m. tonight? I was like, same day? She's like, yeah, I was like, you guys are open that late? She's like, yeah, again, I'm coming from a place where I would have had to wait months. So I'm like, sure, nine is good. She's like, okay, so who you insured with? I'm like, oh, I'm uninsured. I'm gonna pay out a pocket. And I'm bracing. She's like, yeah, I'm gonna have to let you know what it's gonna be and I'm like, expecting. Again, you hear stories and cadets. It's gonna cost me like, I'm gonna have to remorge my property. She's gonna be $325. $325, I'm like, sure. No stress. So I go that night, the kindest people ever, get the results the next day. And everything's fine. Take some ibuprofen, some Tylenol, everything's good. I'm freaking out. I call back home. I call my mother. I'm like, you won't guess. You won't believe this. I tell you the entire story. And then she tells me that she has a friend who needed a non-emergency MRI as well in Canada. And going through the public system would have been six months wait. So she decided to go through the private system 'cause we also have like a accessory private system. Everything out of pocket. And through the private system, had to wait two weeks longer than what I had to wait in Florida. And it cost her $1,200. More expensive than in America. So since that day, I realized that all the lies we've been told in Canada is, be as it's not true. Now don't get me wrong. There are some issues here too with the healthcare system. And there are some people that are uninsured from what I rates about 10% of the population or don't have any coverage. But nonetheless, you don't wanna do like we do in Canada. Like my back is busted, okay? Like I injured myself again into gym. And I'm so busy, I can't find a time to go to the hospital to wait because that's what I'm gonna have to do. Wait to go CAGP, a general care practitioner, is this called, and get a referral to go get an MRI done. I don't have the time. And I wish I was in the US like back in a day where I could get a done in 24 hours and just pay out of pocket. So you guys have a good and you just don't realize it. And anyone that has money in Canada goes to the US anyways to get treated. It's faster and it's better care. - 'Cause if you go in there with your back, they'll just shoot you at that point for sure. And here's the crazy stats in Canada, the entire country. We have less MRI machines than most states do. - Wow. - That's nuts. - I mean, there are only 60 million Canadians, so. - Yeah, 40, 40. - 40, yeah, 40. - Yeah, even less. But not because I'm made, now there's only 40. - Yeah. - Yeah, there's been a lot of, a lot of people taking made. - Well, let's create, I mean, these stats. World's fastest growing assisted dying program, okay. Made is now tied with a cerebral vascular disease. This is the fifth leading cause of death in Canada. Okay. Made assessors and providers do not treat it like a last resort. The percentage of made requests that are denied continues to decline that currently it's at 3.5%. So you have a 97% chance of getting your made request approved. - Where do they, it's like a broken finger, surely they're declined now, who knows. - Well, some doctors refuse to offer it on moral grounds, I get it. But the problem is you have these, I don't want to call them crazy like woke doctors, but there are some of those. - Well, I saw one guy, he got like 400 people in one year. - There you go, right? And you got like, D, the doctor, the death. - He's got a big picture of Dr. Kavorkian up in his house. - Like how he works, yeah. - What do you think they're doing the right thing? They think they're doing people a favor. But again, there are some folks out there that are truly legitimately suffering and they're terminal. There's nothing that can be done. I get it, and I respect that. But nonetheless, I don't think it's something the state should be paying. You know, I believe in freedom. I believe people should be free to do whatever they want. I'm a huge libertarian in that regard. But I don't think, especially considering, I'm paying for it with my taxes. I should not be helping people enter days. - Yeah, I'm pretty opposed to just on ethical grounds. I'm like, just ride it out. Just ride it out, just see what happens. You never know, especially in Canada's case, you broke your arm, it'll heal. I mean, I get like, you know, the worst case scenario. You have some sort of like chronic disease that you're just being taught. And you know, you're gonna die in three weeks anyway. I feel like we've always had sort of solutions for that. And it's kind of one of the, it's, you know, it's when you're engaging in all sorts of debates. People will take the worst case scenario. And you're like, well, okay, if I'm to accept, you know, we can, a debate in what the worst case scenario then you should be willing to concede that all of these other reasons why you would, for example, use made or purely, you know, that's over the top, right? It's kind of the same as abortion, where you'd be like, be debating abortion. They're like, yeah, what about, you know, like, you know, rape or something like that? And you're like, well, that's, you know, exceptionally small proportion of abortions. What about the 99%? That's kind of what we need to be debating over. It's, you know, the same thing that happens with made. And yeah, that seems like the logical endpoint, that it's a, it's a market, you know, it's a market. So the computer's going to spit, yeah, this person's going to, it's going to cost us too much money off or made. And, you know, at the amount of mentally ill people these days, a lot of people jump at the opportunity. People jump at the opportunity to destroy their lives so quickly, without made anyway. But it's even worse than that. There are instances now reports, and this is being reported on, where you have elderlies who don't request made or offered made, if they say, "I'll consider it." And then they're fast-tracked. And the problem is a lot of these elderlies are vulnerable, right? They don't necessarily have all the understandings. And there was this article just a couple of weeks ago, where this, and the grandkids or maybe even the kids that came out publicly and said, "My mother did not want to use made." And they forced it on her. And I mean, even me, closer to home, my grandmother, now she's gone, but at the time, when she was in her, you know, last few weeks of life, she was offered made. And she said at time and time again, I refused, I refused, she was very religious, so for her it was a non-avenew. But just a thing that is being offered. Again, you go to a hospital, you go to the healthcare system, nurses, doctors, for care, not to end your life. - Like you're like filling out the formula accidentally, check the made box and you're like, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, "slime me out, box." And you're like, "I'm just gonna throw you out the room." - Yeah, yeah, literally. - There is something to me that, you know, there's been stories for as long as stories have been told in movies and television about the ethical quandaries of what happens when pain gets to be too much and it doesn't just have to be a story about somebody who's at the end of their life. I mean, it can be stories about people with severe depression, people with severe mental illness, and there's always an interesting discussion to be had in that form about, you know, at what point do you stop living for you and you start living for somebody else? And that's all interesting and very analytical, but that's like, to me, the idea that it would get as far as being co-signed by the government and being something that ends up on a balance sheet is just, even I can't look at that and be like, "That's a bridge too far." - Yeah, well, we're at a point too in Canada where our budget's so screwed. We're just not capable of making our meets. - Just the idea of the, and I understand that it's done in other ways that it's something that we do when we send kids to war, that human beings as lines on a balance sheet after a fact has always been, it's a fact of governance, right? I understand that, but there's something so nihilistic and utterly modern about that, that we've taken it so far to that end point. And maybe that does have to do with entering into a more secular society, then perhaps we've ever been, and that has something to do with it, but it is depressing to think about, absolutely. - And it's depressing to think that my country now is known for that. It's not known for it, I don't know. Puttin' and maple syrup anymore, or I don't know, being good at hockey, not anymore. - I don't know, maple syrup is still pretty high on the list. - It's pretty good, it's pretty good. We produce, I think 90%. I actually Quebec produces 90% of Canada's and Canada produces 80% of the world. Vermont has some good maple syrup into, I think. - A little bit. - Well, you know, it's despicable, I find, that we're at a point now where this, no one least being offered, but we're talking to charts where again, people now are using or dying more through made than guns in America. - That's number one of something, though. - I can't finally see gun control works. - Yeah, there you go. No, but we've lost a moral high ground, right? Because again, in Canada, they love to attack the US on the guns, guns, guns. It's like, okay, guys, at least Americans are not dying because they're government. - You can, and you know, as the resident gun guy, you can remove about 20 or 30 neighborhoods from the equation and the US. - Like safer than like Switzerland. - Yeah, it becomes, it becomes on par with the European Union. - I thought it was like three or four cities. - And you're removing? - I'm understating for the rest 20 years. - It's really like, you just take out, you know, a handful of, not, and again, not even cities, but just neighborhoods, you know. - Just one fan group of a music genre. - And you're, and you're, you know, the American, you know, gun violence, numbers basically evaporate. Absolutely. And again, when I was living in Florida, I was in Sarasota County, which is one of the counties with the most concealed carrier weapons licenses. And you know what, safe as hell. The other day, I was at Walmart and saw two open carries at the Walmart bus. One place I don't want to see. Both of these gentlemen looked like the prime of reverence for their firearms. I hope that's because I go to Walmart and if people are open-carrying, it's like they're hoping they have a job. Just try it, dude. Please, someone in here. Again, I'm as pro two as it comes, carry however you want to carry. For me, and if anyone were to ask my recommendation, don't open-carry because then you make yourself a target. If the day comes, you know, where you have to use it, there's someone that's like, oh, you know, decides they're going to shoot up the mall or whatever that you're at. They're going to be shooting at you. So, you know, you might notice the element of the prize. Yeah, it's a huge benefit. One dude who's also carrying is like four o'clock or five. So, it wasn't even like, it was like too far back. It looks like somebody could like, you know, with, uh, within, you know, outside the way, spendholder. Yeah, I've seen people at Walmart that literally have a tour. You could just walk up behind them and grab them. Is there a quick tour? He's like carrying in a quick draw holster. I'm like, you know, that case. Okay, then don't even have retention. Like, no retention holster. Yeah, I mean, and look, I, you can, if you're, I carry appendix because, you know, you can bend over and there are people that get weird about that. They're like, oh, I'm not going to point it at my body. And it's like, yeah, I get it. You do. And if you're going to carry appendix, you should practice before you load it and make sure you're comfortable with it. But like if you're trying to get fast, like, so I'm just going to carry around a crossbow. There you go. Yeah, why not? Strapped on the red sword. A rocket launcher just on my back and a ride shield. That you need to, you need to have an NF, you know, a tax stamp for the rocket launcher. Yeah, for the rocket, not the launcher. Okay. Yeah, that's my plan is like concealed carrier rocket launcher. $200 for every round. And you have to have, you have to have an ATF official there when you, when you set it off. So it's a lot. It's a big hassle. Face time. I'm like, hey, I'm self-defense situation. Just make sure this is cool. Check your local laws. You know, I'm, I'm only a layperson. It's a hassle to have exposed to hold up the gas stations with rocket launchers. Yeah, there's a lot of things you can do in GTA that you can't do in real life. Maybe not in your hamster, though, in your hamster, I think you can get away with a lot of stuff. You can do it with a lot. Well, I want to ask you another question about, because we have you here, and I want to, and I want to subject to the audience to, uh, to Canadian politics, because a lot of this has a lot of salience, American politics. We don't realize, um, people just want to hear about the save act all day long or you'll on Omar. And it's like, that's great. And all, but when you go bigger picture, Canada, once again, we've said it a million times, really is this cautionary tale. One place I see some hope, correct me if I'm wrong, is the separatist movements. That one allows places like Quebec and Alberta to, you know, determine their own destiny. But secondarily, kind of, puts a black eye on the Canadian government on Ottawa and sort of maybe gives them a reality check. I mean, this is from the Guardian. The results coming in last week separatists went in Quebec. Does that bring Canada any closer to separation? Um, lack of majority, uh, puts any referendum in doubt. But again, we got this new guy coming in. I'm going to butcher his name Paul St. Pierre Plammadon. Amazing. There we go. There we go. Let's go. He's kind of this mixed bag, right? He's kind of socially, yeah, conservative, physically liberal kind of mixed bag, but interesting nonetheless. Yeah. Well, the party tends to be, it's, it's a left leaning party for sure. But in the last few years, there's been more and more right leaning individuals partaking in it. Now, the big thing with and we call them PSPP for short, because nobody says his entire name anyways. So even that's pretty long, but his number one thing is immigration. It's protecting the culture and the nation of Quebec, if we can call it that, sure, they want to bring a referendum. I don't know if it's going to pass. A lot of people don't, don't know this, but Quebec tried twice already once in 1980, once in 1995. 1980 was not even close. 1995 came damn close. We're talking less than one percent. So it was like, oh, yeah, it was less than 50, 149. So he came damn close to passing. He wants to bring it back. Good. I know. Sorry. I thought you were going to. Well, I'm just wondering if Quebec were to become its own nation. Do you think that that would cascade and have, because I know there's a talk about Alberta. And I don't know about the other provinces, but do you think that would be something where like basically Canada's just Ottawa? Yeah, well, there are the West. If Alberta separates, then Saskatchewan is joining as well. They're two very wealthy provinces to very conservative provinces. The problem in Alberta is that they don't have the support. I wish they did. I want Alberta to separate. I think it's the greatest province. They don't have the support sadly. They're going to have a referendum in a few weeks and it's probably not going to pass. Quebec has a little bit more of a leg to stand on. Not a leg to stand on. Alberta has a leg to stand on, but Quebec is a historical and cultural difference. First of all, sure, we speak French. We use a different set of laws in Quebec. We use the civil law. French derived versus the common law in the rest of Canada. So if you're a lawyer in Quebec, can practice in Canada and vice versa. And due to our history of being technically colonized, because we lost a war against the Brits and that's why it's not French anymore, we've always been very reclusive living in a silo. Now, the thing in Quebec, it's still not super popular. It's maybe 30%-ish support for separation. What it does though, and it's always good for Quebec and the politicians and the government in Quebec, it buys them kind of a card to use with Ottawa, with the federal government. And that's how we get all these low freebies, like being in charge of our immigration system, which is only Quebec does that compared to other provinces, like receiving entitlements and programs and money. So Quebec likes to use that card to get bigger favors from Ottawa. Now, keep in mind though, Quebec is still the province with the high support for the current Prime Minister of Canada, Carnie. He's nowhere in Canada is he more popular than in Quebec for some reason. And again, it's because of this America bad, Trump, Trump, all the time, that's all we talk about. Wall to wall coverage in Canada is just how Trump is horrible and wants to take over Canada. And yes, he joked about it, the whole like we're going to take over Canada. That was, again, he helped the liberals like he has no idea. Now, mind you, he said before, and I've heard him speak about it, he said, how much rather deal with the liberal government than a conservative government, because they know conservatives are a little bit wiser and they're not dumb. I was going to say, can we say return? Yes, good. Again, I'm from Canada. Who knows? So the conservatives are not retarded. So obviously as a businessman, Trump would rather deal with a weaker opponent. So if that was the goal, it worked. It definitely worked. But now we're all suffering up north because of that. It's it's fascinating stuff. I, I have a soft spot for Quebec. I remember Tucker Carlson was saying this to I think it was the milk boys. He was on their show or the other way around such a weird thing to even hear. I know. And like, yeah, Tucker said something about Quebec. And the nowhere's like, yeah, you want to like dunk on Quebec together. And Tucker's like, no, they're the only province that like stands up for themselves. Yeah, well, it was my take. I'm like, well, the Anglo-Canadian's have kind of rolled over where at least the French Canadians are still have a bit of fight left in them. Well, that's the thing, right? For the longest time in the rest of Canada hated Quebec because of it. Because we were, you know, maybe a little reclusive. Maybe we wanted to preserve our culture. And we have some crazy lost to it. Don't get me wrong. Like French laws in Quebec are wild. Like they will find you. If your business is not conducted in French, if your signs are not in French, I mean, KFC, the American, like, we should do that here in English, which blows my mind because America does not have an official language. No, I mean, I thought we did. I thought we had some administration. The trumpet, you'd have to have Congress pass the law. The Trump administration has made an executive order about English being the, look at this. This is in France. It's called KFC. Yeah. But here is called PFK for Pulefri Kenteke. It's a little transaction. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's crazy. Some of the best shows, all it remains, a handful of the best shows we've ever played have been in Quebec. Oh, yeah. It's an awesome. So did people awesome that before? Oh, no, we, we all call it PFK. So that's how we call it. Well, in French, PFK. But nonetheless, the thing is now the rest of Canada is looking to Quebec and saying, okay, maybe this crazy French people had a, you know, they're doing it right. Because again, we've had crazy immigration in Canada to a point where some cities are 82% plus Indian or, you know, Sikh and they're looking at Quebec being like, okay, you guys were on to something at one point. And now with that new premier, PSPP, I mean, he was on stage saying that and this is controversial in Canada to say, but that mass migration suppresses wages, mass migration suppresses fertility rates in the domestic population. And in Quebec, we're like, yeah, we like that. Now, the rest of Canada is looking to us and people that were critical of Quebec on the right. Because again, everyone loved to dunk on Quebec. They're now looking at that premier being like, yeah, he's the most based politician in the entire country. Maybe we should be a little bit more like these crazy French people. Yeah, I love it. I mean, I've been to Quebec and I, I mean, I'm a wasp. So I would theory have a lot of problems. I found it surprising a that the French Canadians are pretty apprehensive when they first meet someone like me because they think of an Anglo-Canadian. And then when they find out American, they're like delighted. They're like, oh, no way. Like, we love, you know, etc. Which is, I found funny. But also, I just, I really liked the because it's this, it's weird because it's European feeling, probably because of the French language and the very same infrastructure and that sort of thing. But it's the layouts of the cities were like American cities. So people were driving pickup trucks, but then they would have like window stickers in French and. For sure. it's like kind of a French country music almost sounding like it's like it's it was so it's one of the string and I mean this as a compliment it's one of the most strange places I think in planet earth because it's got this weird combination of of of Europe and in America it all comes together there and we also have something called jouette vive which translates to like the pleasure to joy of life we love to have a good time and that's why I'm not surprised when you say you play shows up there and in people are super nice it's like in Montreal you can go out on your own and you will make friends like Americans are super friendly especially in the south love it but people from Quebec are probably some of the friendliest people depart you with ever downright I believe that yeah it's fascinating well you're talking about how how they control their immigration laws and this manifests with like basically requiring French off the immigrants which is done an excellent job at keeping immigrants from flooding the flooding the province but yeah when I went to Montreal there's Haitians everywhere yeah that's the thing right for the dogs and cats definitely although you know what for for straight dogs and cats maybe it's good we don't have animal control which is made for dogs there you go we're keeping our system why is that out no it's funny but the thing is yeah so instead of taking so Canada's taken massive amounts of people from India okay I mean at this point Canada's probably the second country or third and I'm not even making this up country with the most Indians after India okay but Quebec we're still very much it's a lot of former French colonies so a lot of former African French colonies a lot of Haitians some Middle Eastern because they used to be under French rule as well but it's kept the province right now I think Quebec is the the the province with the most still ethnically Canadian right in the entire country and it makes a difference again I was in Toronto this week twice back and forth and back and forth to be on a show and to cover the the Quebec election on a new station and you land in Toronto and it's a culture shock in your own country yeah well it's stunning if you step in I step in a pile of shit literally the second I walked out it's yeah you feel like a minority in your own country well it happens so quick I was reading about how Toronto every mayor of Toronto was a member of the orange order which for people that knows like this very very British Protestant fraternal order like Knights of Columbus basically for Protestants every member highly unionist this is like if you are a proud British subject you're in the orange order and every mayor of Toronto until the 1970s was a member of the orange order there was British authors in the 50s and 60s and even the 70s in Toronto is the most British feeling city in the world like the rate of demographic overhaul was was rapid and it's like you lost a war I mean that's literally what it felt like in Toronto I'll never forget I was there two years ago and I'm on the ferry to city island so I can get the view of the skyline and when I'm like when I was a kid and I'm 25 when I was a kid the stereotype about Canada was that was this obnoxiously white place like it was comically white and everyone had these kind of very white people values of like being super polite and kind of meek and whatever so you know I knew things have changed in Canada a bit but I was stunned to go to Toronto and I'm on this ferry to city island and I'm not making this up I'm not just no hyperbole or you know I'm putting any spin on it for for dramatic sake about 500 people on this ferry the only non-South Asian person on this ferry I get over to city island again it's almost entirely South Asians they're playing their Bollywood music or whatever everything smells weird um they're cooking strange things and I'm just like what is what has happened because Toronto has the bones of a very beautiful city I mean the the university there is stunning once again it looks like it was plucked from Britain and dropped in Canada and I'm just seeing it just get pissed away and again in 34 years you know it's like you lost and I'm not saying this is like a demoralization thing it's just it's just because I think Canadians would agree with me and it's isn't the case in Quebec like Montreal still feels maybe not Montreal but a lot of the surrounding areas still feel distinctly Canadian still feel distinctly French Canadian Toronto it's it's it's gone it really is it's not hyperbole say it feels like you are in yeah some sort of weird middle ground like maybe like Doha right it's like a lot of Indian workers it's just so strange and there's an 80 nowhere to be seen there's no I saw one Canadian guy on the subway and he was looking at me like like again like he was a POW or something and it's I look at and he looks at me he's like what are you doing here I'm like what are you doing here it's just doing here yeah it's the weirdest it's I got and I it's I've never seen anything like it not even in America not even like New York or LA it's like Toronto is just maybe besides Dallas uniquely bad in this regard and it's not just Toronto as the worst part you got Surrey in BC is just as bad and and now you have you know you mentioned the Daenerys of Toronto now Daenerys of Toronto is a woman named Olivia Chao we like to call her Olivia Chao because she doesn't speak English so and and just listening to her is a meme watching her videos is ridiculous but we're at a point right now even in our politics where you have writings you know it's like districts for you guys writings where it doesn't matter which candidate of which party conservative liberal NDP they're all wearing turbines yeah you know and it's and we're at a point where again because the demographic of that writing is purely South Asian and it makes you wonder again like what is Canada anymore and it does feel like an invasion and people now are starting to push back so immigration used to be a okay it was never contentious in Canada we used to be super pro-immigration now it's still not contentious we're super against immigration but we don't have like a Donald Trump a politician in Canada who's willing to stand up and and and to end it except for this premiere right here and we even have something crazy in Canada it's called the century initiative and it's a bunch of like elitist Canadian you know what they want to do is bring Canada to a hundred million people by the year uh two thousand one hundred to give you an idea we're at 40 million so that's more than doubling the population it's impossible we went from thirty five million to forty ish million in the span of two decades and everything collapsed yeah our infrastructure collapse our job market collapse I mean just uh this week we announced we lost another six eight thousand jobs to put this in perspective for America because six eight thousand jobs who cares it's like if America lost over half a million jobs in one month in one month so our economy are unemployment rating Canada's at six point five percent it's four point two percent in America right so you guys are like we're 40 percent 43 percent higher than American unemployment rate well because I remember like if you go and you look at what John Kerry ran on what Al Gore ran on what uh especially Obama ran on they're always making appeals to Canada they're saying Canada does this Canada does that exceptionally well and that would have had a lot of salience with Americans at the time they'd be like yeah Canada does do that well and then after Obama oh wait Democrats stop doing that like Biden I bet you could go through and they didn't once appeal to Canada as some sort of model for some sort of social program it's just completely except for Sanders who keeps talking about the single pair system yeah yeah even then it's like they'll just say we could have one like I don't know Australia sweeten will you sweeten yeah yeah yeah I can't it had just stopped being the stand in for perfect dope in society now we like try to ignore it I think well people are on the left try to ignore it and it's it's it's it's so shocking um the South Asian thing in particular for whatever reason they like move to a country well it's not for whatever reason they're highly nepotistic they move to a country and they are immediately their first instinct is I need to run for office like we have this like Shree fanatar guy I don't know if he won a seat or not if he's still in Congress he's like oh Shgoufius Shri Tandiri yeah Goufius guy I've ever seen like a cartoon character and he's like a total phob like he got off the boat yesterday and it's like what does he he doesn't speak any English and I'm like what is going am I being pranked I thought it was like an SNL skit but these people they show up and their first instinct is run for office as if their country is something they're replicate at least when the British came to India it's like hey we're gonna make you more like Britain that's yeah at the time agree with things yeah but coming from India it's like no actually you need to shut up and like watch how we do things well enjoy the second thing to do is they run for office the first thing is they bring older cousins to parents and everything else that's number one yeah but I mean again it's in Canada right now it's a cautionary tale immigration is not bad when it's done properly when it's done to augment Canada actually used to have the envy of the world for immigration system because we use a point-based system it was purely merit-based you needed to have education income experience be married it all counted for a point into getting you into into the door the liberal party when it came into power in 2015 they did away with all of this and then our system Canada used to be a high trust society so a lot of our institutions and our systems are put in place for people that are high trust right sadly some cultures are not based on high trust societies so we are right with scams they are scamming the system we used to have and we still do we call them diploma meals so you could come to Canada on a student visa so what start happening a bunch of South Asians start opening colleges big colleges and instead of teaching people there they would only print out those kind of transcripts you know letters of offer for for for program and they will use that to get visas and then they start importing them and he became a racket where people would be making money on basically offering visas same thing with companies Tim Horns the most Canadian thing we used to be it was sold to the Brazilians but Tim Horns used to be the icon of Canada now Tim Horns we call it jeet hordens for very obvious reasons they start using what we call TFW's temporary foreign workers and to do that you need an LMA a labor market impact assessment you have to show that you've tried to hire domestically and you just couldn't Most importance, you go on the government website for LMAs and it's just Tim Horne, Tim Horne, Tim Horne, Tim Horne. You're telling me, you can't find a guy in school, a student. - It's throwing out the microwave. - I mean, I used to work at Timmy's when I was 16. That was my summer job. So they rather import people from those countries. And the reason why is because they put them up 20 a piece in a house, they work slave wages. They don't know any better 'cause they don't have the cultural and historical ties to the country. They don't necessarily understand what's normal and what's not normal, what's going on. And it's being called now modern day slavery. That's basically what it is. But who's, not only are they suffering these immigrants, but on top of that, the real losers in this are the Canadians, the students, the low skilled workers, they can't find jobs. Our youth unemployment rate, that's anything under 24, stands at upwards of 14%, which is again, one of the highest numbers we've ever seen. So people are suffering. We're by, again, back in the days, summer jobs, you'd go, you'd hand out your CV, your resume to a few places, you'd find a job. Now, they had a Costco couple weeks ago. Open up a couple positions. And there was a video that popped up. There was a line of over a thousand people for a handful of Costco positions. - Yeah, this is a Tim Hortons and it says hundreds of Indian students lined up. - That's, and this is not a joke. This is not like made up. That's not a idea. This was one of the 20 pictures I'm going to go on with just on the cursory search. - And people just don't understand unless you're Canadian, of course. In Canada, we know that reality. And again, we're super anti-mass migration now. We still want the proper people to come in. We still think that they can benefit a country, but we want to end this lunacy, but the government doesn't want to. They are by indirectly importing voters because whenever they get the right to vote, they tend to vote liberal, of course. And it's making a docile population. And a lot of our, so Canada's economy is based on oligopolys. We have like three telecoms, three grocery stores, three media companies, it's all oligopolys. So these guys are plugged in with the government and power, dirt, or buddy, buddy, or chummy chummy. So obviously they lobby the government to continue these insane migration policy because it suppresses wages. So again, it's the Canadian. It's the old stock Canadian that's losing. - Well, and the red pill here, and this is what people don't want to accept, is if we brought it, if Canada brought in, I don't know, a million Englishmen, or maybe even a million Frenchmen, probably wouldn't be having these problems. I mean, there'd be some economic problems getting these people homes or whatever, but you wouldn't have these cultural clashes and Toronto wouldn't feel foreign. If anything, Toronto would start to feel a bit more Canadian again. - Absolutely. - You know, when you look at, I mean, I know your French canates be of a slightly different perspective on this, but from my perspective, especially it plays like Ontario, really is meant to be this kind of outpost of British empire in many ways. So the further away you get from that of Anglo-Protestant French Canadian core, the less Canadian it feels, and people have a really tough time accepting this because, you know, 70, 80 years of post-war liberal consensus, we're supposed to believe everyone's a blank slate. I'm sorry, someone from Yorkshire, it's kind of a slightly easier time assimilating in Toronto. Actually, they probably just pick up right where they left off versus someone from India. And it's like, the sooner people can accept that, especially on the right, you have no excuse. You should have already accepted that by now. But the sooner people on the left even can accept that people are different based off of where they come from, the sooner we can fix these problems. - And you mentioned earlier, Denmark. They did this fascinating study. They looked at immigrants from different backgrounds. And how much it costs society to import, not only import these immigrants, but how much they would cost society over their lifetime. So they took the average Danish person as a benchmark and that person would contribute more to society than they took. So they would, through taxes and productivity, would benefit Danish society. Then they looked at other Europeans like Romanians and they contributed a little bit less, but it was still positive. It was still a net gain for society. But then they started looking at other cultures, other people from other areas. And whether it's Afghanistan or Iraq, the worst offender was from Somalia. Someone from Somalia cost Denmark 27,000 euros per year to support. Throughout their lifetime, it doesn't get better. They don't integrate. They don't start producing a net value for society. They're just a drain for their entire life on society. And that's another angle people don't realize. I mean, ultimately, again, immigration's supposed to benefit your country. It's not a right. It's a privilege to go to a different country. - It's certainly not a charity, which is definitely not. - That's what it's been. - Well, I'm glad that, I'm glad Quebec has put their foot down on this. Someone's got to do it. Trump's obviously been making some massive strides on this. I mean, to the point where his own base is like, we want more. I mean, that's like a really healthy thing, actually. You're starting to see across Europe, people waking up on this. But yeah, unfortunately, it feels like Canada, Australia, really the other, anglosphere countries in New Zealand, the hours late. So it's good to see Quebec is showing the anglos how it's done here. Well, with that, we got to get to some of our super chats here. They've been rolling in on Rumble. I've been looking at YouTube and there hasn't been as much. On Rumble, it's like Super Chat City. Shane H. Wilder says boys, boys, boys, boys, boys, boys. Cast IRL. - Boys, boys, boys, boys. - Brett's an honorary frostback on Arrow with a legit frostback. Welcome back, Phil. The new album Better Make My Ears Bleed. - We wrote a chorus, and I sent it to our guitar player. And he showed his wife, and she cried. So I think we're on the right track. - That's the book. - That's a legitimate story too. There's a song that we were working on, we were pretty pumped, and we sent it to our guitar player. And he's like, that's sick. He's like, I showed my wife. She cried, I'm like, yes, that's a winner. So speaking of honorary, Elliott, it looks like he's just changed sides here. - Yes. - There you go. I'm joining. - Oh boy. - Swaded by the Americans at this table, so. - Can you see him on camera? - Yeah, the hat back there. - There you go. - It's really getting wet. I mean, you're gonna have some trouble with the airport. - Yeah, for sure. I'm gonna CBSA, which is like our CBP, and they're gonna be questioning me. - So happy. - That's it. - They're turning it back around. - This is fuckin' it. - That audio is, you need to put that there. - What do we got here from Terrible 1382? That's quite the username. Brett, great, that's what he put the three T's there. - Three T's. - Great job on not being a fat POS, but does thou even hoist fill, take him to the gym, post-haste? - We got like a middle age, something, someone from the middle ages. - A medieval, yeah. - We've talked about it. - Fascinating. Dildos or 74's as Phil said, we don't have magic soil. Excuse me, sir. Have you not spoken to the mountain Jews? They believe in Missouri magic. (laughing) - I love the term mountain Jews. That is the term for the Mormons, by the way. 'Cause you don't know mountain Jews. - From St. Miles, if you look at the inside recording of the terminal that was hit by the Houthis, most of the people there were dressed to go on Hajj. They bombed a Muslims on pilgrimage. Yeah, the Houthis don't really care. They're just getting wacky and wild. - Root. - They just want to win. (laughing) All right, rotating around the cube or whatever, you're not safe. Andre Tukulescu, the very Romanian name. Want to talk about Iranian sleeper cells, look at the Toronto police officer who got busted trying to have suppressors melt in the Canada. Is this true? - Yeah. - Jesus. (laughing) - Don't nail him, put it down. - Don't nail him, put it down. - That police officer, again, look at the last name and you'll realize where's the Legion stands. - Doesn't sound to Anglo or French, huh? - Yeah, no, no. - Igor Gargail of Kazan says FPV drones would destroy the US population, whether that be the Pentagon's drones or drones from China, Russia, et cetera. Your guns are irrelevant, silly, silly. Whoa. - She, I mean, look, I said like an actual invasion by people. - Yeah. - So. - It's cool. - You're having different conversations. - Yeah. Evan for us says the Trump 2.02A moves and stances alone may dictate he needs to win the midterms LOL. I guess you're saying that for 2A purposes alone, it's definitely worth reinforcing Trump's- - I mean, yeah, look, if you want to see the border secure, then you have to vote for Republicans, right? If you want to retain your Second Amendment rights, you have to vote for Republicans. And if you want to see any more of the policies that Donald Trump has put forward, you have to vote for Republicans. If you want to see any kind of legislation or anything out of the administration, you have to vote for Republicans because if Democrats take control of the House, it's going to be investigation, impeachment. They're going to be calling it, they're going to do everything they can to sign me the Trump agenda. So I mean, for me personally, it was never a question, and it's not because of Donald Trump, it's because I'm never going to vote for Democrats the way they are. Like I'm not going to vote for Democrats. Like they have not, they've indicated to me that they do not hold the values that I hold. It's that clear. And so whether it be Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, JD Vance, the Democrat party would have to shift massively for me to be like, well, maybe I'll vote for a Democrat. They just don't, their values are not the same as mine. So yeah, no, absolutely. Get out and vote. I concur. Dragon 4536 says, "I had to live through two years of HE double hockey sticks when my mother was diagnosed and passed from lung cancer. But never did I waver in my belief that anyone but the Lord could bring her peace from that pain, that is very salient, that's absolutely. I share that belief as well. Yeah, I mean, it's difficult to imagine any true relief from that can come outside of, obviously, the Lord. I would second that. I mean, my father passed away in 2000 and I mean, he died of cancer and it was pretty rough at the end, you know, he was definitely suffering and unfortunately something like that, you know, there's no around is only through, you know, so yeah, I agree. Only the truth we're going to YouTube says, learn your history, that's always exciting. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, it's kind of weird to hear this one opens up, it's probably right because these people have like access like Wikipedia, so if you say something, you think it's correct, they look it up. I'll just not know that. You're not going to be nice about that. You're all like two months in a date, a pregnant woman and five kids were the balloon victims in Oregon. Oh, okay. Okay, a crashed zero was found in Alaska after a failed to Dutch Harbor raid Dutch Harbor was the over the illusions. Yeah, so off of a few casualties there, thank you for the update. I appreciate that, rooster sauce 69, and this is coming in a Canadian dollar. So this is an authentic Canadian here, that's worth nothing, sorry guys, thanks for the monopoly money. If you want to know more about the horrors of made, please look up Kelsey Sharon, she's one of the most vocal Canadians, she's amazing, that's her entire platform, highly recommend if you guys want to have her on, she'll definitely come. Oh, it's amazing. We have to get her on Lisa if you're watching. Let's get going. That'd be awesome. She's probably asleep. She's probably, yeah, she's probably like living her life. She works probably the hardest out of anyone in this company. She's the best shot at Lisa, why it called in Berg says old people thinking it was a weekly house made. It's on offer. Oh, made. Yeah, I could use a clean. It's paying for that. It's amazing. It's like back in the evening. It's like back in the evening, if we had real comedy these days, somebody would be making that skin. Yeah. What made? Oh, my house isn't any cleaner than my dad. I was like, they opened the door thinking it made. It's going to be there. It's just a guy with an axe. Yeah. It's Michael Myers. Yeah. Big, big steak knife. It's so true. Yeah, well, we're not as super chats here. We got to pick back up on the can because it's Wednesday next summer, we're going to have a Canadian. I don't know. You know, maybe JJ McCola on because JJ McCola made this interesting point. He's the one that put this on my radar is, and you said it at the top of the show, is that Canadians in the 21st century identify themselves solely in opposition to the United States. Yeah. And we've talked about this before, frustration with the Republican Party. The inability to articulate what you're in favor of will always destroy you. If you're only defined in what you're against, you can only last so long. And I think that's part of the reason of why you're seeing not that America doesn't have these problems. It's just Canada has these problems and steroids. It's not me boasting like, oh, we figured it all out. No, look at Dallas. Dallas is almost as bad as Toronto and a lot of ways, certainly a lot of suburbs there. It's just to say Canada is in a, you know, further stage of this. But yeah, I think part of it is just because Canadians don't know what they're before, what actually does define the Canadian. I mean, as you see it, I guess, depending on the broad brush here, obviously, Anglos and French Canadians, you know, what is a Canadian? You know, that's a good question. I bring the Quebec aspect. I think Quebec has culture out of all places in Canada. We have a distinct culture, language, linguistically, historically, food, or people that's bound together. History, look, if I look at Canada, it's first of all, there's the, you've got to look at the descent. You've got to look at the ethnicity, like you're not. It comes from Ireland, England, France, and Scotland. Scotland. There you go. So I was going through the aisles. Those are the old stock Indians. And then after that, you can tie in with immigration, a lot of Europeans, lots of Italians, Polish, but it's Christian-based, European-based, and that's what we should go back towards. We used to be known as being very polite, that's fine, but we used to also be known to, you know, our first prime minister was a staunch, nationalist, he's the father of Confederation. And he was very much anti-immigration. So we have to go back to that. We've been tearing down our statues. We've been bending over further the First Nations and doing land acknowledgments because all the land has been stolen. We have to go back to our history and be proud of it. That's number one. So now we're at a point where before every hockey game, you have to do a land acknowledgment. We're on the unceded territory of whatever. We have to get away from this continuously, just trying to pender and just go back to being "Yeah, we're Canadians, we created one of the greatest nations at a time. We've been losing it. There's nothing to be ashamed of." And we've elevated the quality of life of so many other people. There you go, that's the deformer. I think you guys should go back to this. Again, as a French Canadian, as I understand it, a big reason you guys went away from this is a lot of the French Canadians weren't too happy with a big giant union jack on there. As I understand it, this new Quebec minister, he wants to get rid of the monarchy. Absolutely. Well, that's the interesting thing, right? So, when you enter Parliament, so in Quebec, it's called the National Assembly. You know, we're maybe taking a step, we're low too early there, we're not yet in the nation. But we renamed it the National Assembly. So you're supposed to take a note to the king before you take your seat. And he said, and on top of that, you're supposed to have the left-handed governor. We call a left-handed governor, but you guys would say the lieutenant governor, who's the king's representative, they represent the Crown. They're the ones opening Parliament, they're the ones doing a speech from the throne, setting out the agenda of the government, of the session. And he flat-out said, I'm telling her not to come. She's not welcome. And as for the oath of office, we're going to swear allegiance to the people of Quebec. We're not swearing allegiance to the Crown. Now, there is precedent because the deformer government passed a law abolishing the need to swear allegiance to the Crown. And it was not a challenge. Unconstitutional? Yes. Completely. Nobody challenged it. Again, we're Canadian. We're not going to make a, make a fuss. So that was in 2022. It hasn't been challenged. So right now, him telling saying, you know, the left-handed governor is not coming, probably going to pass as well. And then he went further saying, we're going to cut the entire budget of her office. So I mean, I'm for it. I mean, what is the Crown anymore in Canada? Why do we need to have a king? To use J. Jim McColle is arguing again. I mean, he says the primary reason is just to sort of signal that we're not American. Yeah. Well, it's done. You see left. You go around the world, you go to Australia, certainly Britain, New Zealand, you know, being a monarch is very right-wing. It's very conservative. And then in Canada, it's kind of a mixed bag. I mean, true to it was probably more pro- Crown than anyone. Yeah. I guess it was just a signal that he wasn't American. Yeah, at that point. And even then, when we started to trade war with the US, what's the first thing we did? We actually asked the king, Charles, to come open parliament for us. He came from England, which was the first time he's ever been in Canada, by the way. So it was a message, you know, we're not we're not bending over for America again. It's posturing. It's stupid. And it's devoid of any value. I like the old flag. Now, again, being from Quebec, we have our own flag, and we're very proud of it. We fly it everywhere. I like this one. Well, and to your point, looking up the three lines of England, the dragon of Scotland, the flowers or the, what do you call it in French? Fledelis. Fledelis. You wanted to hold show without making a joke, like a French fry. It's good, man. It's been boiling in. I need to come up. I lost back. I had to contain the froggy. We got the beautiful. I love the French, by the way. No one loves the French more than me. The beautiful, and then you got the Irish harp. And then you got to unite it all together. This is basically them saying, these are the four that are Canadians. And if you're outside of that, it's up to us to determine if you're Canadian, and that's what that flag says. And then it says, by the way, this is where we kind of came out of. The new flag, it's just like, like, like, kind of lived, hard post-war. Like, doesn't mean anything. All the men who died in the World Wars, they didn't even have a conception of that flag. Yeah. It's just like the epitome of we're moving into the blank slate. What it means to be Canadian? I don't know. It's on the fly. Yeah. It has no culture, no history. And on top of that, we push even further, so we redesigned our passport. And back in the day, every page had, you know, Vimy Ridge, which was a, you know, a battle that was very much Canadian that we won. In Europe, Terry Fox, that was an icon of Canada, they removed everything. Now it's just drawings that mean nothing. We've erased our history and our culture. And that's the problem again with mass migration. It leads to the collapse of the culture and the erosion of social cohesion. Mm-hmm. It's tragic stuff. It's a tailspin. I think the Quebec wall could probably pull out, which I think would be great, at least salvage something. We'll see. We'll see what the Western provinces decide.
