Okay.
Let's get on to The Tale of the Tape.
She's the mother of seven.
a copywriter and former guest host of the John Gormley show.
I'm talking about Lee's Merle.
So buckle up.
Here we go.
Welcome to the Sean Newman podcast.
Today I'm joined by Lee's Merle.
So thank you, ma'am, for making the tour here and coming to sit with me.
Well, thanks so much for having me, Sean Newman.
It was good to meet you when April Hutchison and Linda Blade were in Lloydminster a couple weeks ago.
Yeah.
When Brad first reached you out, he said, you've got to meet this late.
I'm like, why do I know that?
That's because we had breakfast together.
That's right.
It's because we had breakfast at the Meridian over here.
Yeah.
That's right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We came to you guys brought April Hutchison and she's Canadian power lifter and Dr. Linda
Blate to Lloyd Minster and seeing them just set a fire under me.
I mean, like, like, like, and those are two powerhouse women that I think all women need
a lot more of in their lives.
Well, tell us a little bit about your story because it's funny when I got introduced
to you that morning.
It was Sheila Gunnree, and actually, and Linda, for that matter.
Yeah.
Man, actually, maybe April.
Everybody started pumping your tires.
I'm like, what are I missing here?
Like, what is going on here?
Oh, that's sweet.
Well, my name is Lee Smurrell.
I'm a mother of six children.
I'm a writer.
I've been called a thought leader by people that hire me to accelerate ideas and conversations.
But I dabble in media when I'm not busy being a mom of six.
But I do a lot of writing, like a lot of writing.
On a typewriter, actually, like a 1948 typewriter.
You do not.
I have it in my van.
I have two in my van.
You want to come to my van and we'll do like dueling typewriters?
We can do that.
But yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the internet got to be a scary place in COVID.
You know, it just did.
And I was like...
Kids do not get in the van.
Unless it's got dueling typewriters, then maybe you're okay.
I keep a full of free candy, too, exactly for that reason.
And it looks like a van that would have free candy in it.
So I keep it in there.
What kind of van is it?
It's a Mercedes Sprinter van, like a huge blacked out van.
Yeah, it's wild.
Why?
Why do I have a sprinter van?
Yeah.
Because it's cool.
Because it's cool.
It was a COVID purchase.
I joked with my husband for 100 years.
I was like, I want a Hutterite van.
I just want a Hutterite van.
And when I saw one pop up on the internet, first time in our marriage ever, I called my husband.
I said, give them our money.
And we went and got the Hutterite van.
And now I happily roll around the province doing fun stuff with fun people.
So yeah, you can't go wrong.
You can't go wrong.
I stuffed it full of typewriters and, you know, record players
and things that would seem normal and fun through COVID.
And then it just never stopped.
So, yeah, that's what I do.
What were you doing before COVID?
Before all this insanity happened, you mentioned your mom of six.
Yeah.
Your small town Saskatchewan.
I'm in Regina.
I'm in the wokenest 15-minute city.
I thought you lived just outside on Regina.
I did.
I did for a lot of years.
Oh, you did for a lot of years.
Yeah, and I'm a rural girl, like going all the way back to my birth.
I grew up just outside of Regina in a little town with Charlotte Sebastian, another one of your guests that were here.
We grew up in the same hometown.
So now I live in the woke epicenter of Saskatchewan.
It is crazy what is happening in the woke epicenter of Saskatchewan.
Tell me, honestly, tell me a little bit about it.
Because, you know, I come from small towns.
Saskatchewan farming community where, you know, you think, yeah, none of this will ever penetrate
too, but it seems like... It's penetrated. It's here. It's here. It's penetrating. Yeah, it's here. For sure
there is. Well, Canada has added over two million people in the last year, 1.6. I think 1.16 in the last
year in 2.2 million over the last couple of years.
That is an insane amount of people to add to all of our existing infrastructures.
That's health care and that's housing and that's education.
And they are going into cities and they are transforming the way that cities operate.
And that's where I live right in the middle of one of those.
So what do you see about being a Regina resident?
Yeah.
A, I love some of the slogans they came out with for Regina.
That was fantastic.
Yeah.
How do you know women weren't involved in that thought process?
like not one woman.
They didn't run up by one woman before they were like,
we're having a big splashy event to launch this.
I think they learned their lesson.
I think they learned their lesson.
Do you think they learned their lesson?
Oh, I think they learned their lesson.
What was one of the catchy ones?
Like come, come experience my regina.
Show us your vagina.
Show us your vagina.
Show us your vagina.
Oh, I couldn't believe it when I saw it.
But, you know, those things have a way of working themselves
out when the public gets a hold of them. So yeah, it was a lesson for them. So, so, so,
Regina Saskatoonan, the bigger centers. So Saskatchewan has added more than the city of Moose Jaw
to its population in the last one calendar year. That's not, that's not nothing. And how many people
is that? It's over like over 35,000 people. Have been added to Regina. To, to Saskatchewan.
To Saskatchewan. Yeah, two Saskatchewan. And Alberta is like adding a new medicine hat. Alberta
has added a whole new medicine hat in the last year.
So if we're wondering why our housing prices are out of control
and why we can't have access to services
and everything feels broken,
it's because we're serving a brand new bunch of people
that are brand new to Canada and acclimating to living here.
Yeah.
So in our subdivision, let me tell you what it looks like,
there's 40,000 people packed into a residential subdivision,
40,000 people.
At the beginning, it was low-density single-family units,
and then they start building multifamily units and high-density housing right beside it.
Then they open up all of the laneways for laneway housing.
So if you have a garage, you can build a suite on top of your garage,
which another family lives in.
Our school is so heavily overpopulated, like by double, like by double what it should be.
We have the highest public transit usership in the entire province in our neighborhood
because houses are so close together that not everybody can have a car.
that lives in this neighborhood and everything you need in the neighborhood is literally within
walking distance, literally within walking distance. So this this leads people, some people to believe
that in order in a couple, in a few years, you're not going to be able to leave your 15-minute
segment of the city. It's funny. I was just watching somebody on Twitter. I think it was
Dezre Levant, actually, who just put out, you know, they're saying that 15-minute cities can't come in because of conspiracy theories while they try and prove that 15-minute cities are a thing.
That they're happening.
It's an Eminton report.
I'm butching that just a smid, but it was clever.
Oh, Eminton is bringing it in.
All of the smart cities are.
All of the smart cities are.
They're getting funding to accelerate housing through a federal housing initiative to do these things to us.
That is what's happening.
It's what's happening.
It's wild.
It's wild.
Enjoy.
Welcome to Canada.
Well, the thing is, you talk about it, and then it's like, well, what can be done about it, right?
I mean, obviously, on the Alberta side, you have Daniel Smith and the UCP trying their best to limit the powers of municipal governments to make these decisions arbitrarily without consulting their electorate.
That's what they're doing.
Is that what they're doing?
I think so.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think so.
You guys can't make these decisions without everybody being consulted because it does change the vibe and the look and the tone of a city or a community. It absolutely does.
I, you know who Mocha Bersergan is.
I just had him on.
What did you?
And he was talking about Amarjit Sohi, the mayor of Emmington.
Yeah, right?
Yeah.
So, like, there's some pretty questionable things in that man's past, not even, I'm not
even talking about the going to jail in India.
I just mean, like, as he's been in Canadian politics, there's some questionable stuff.
Some ethical violations.
And geez, in our country, it just seems like.
like the ethical violations just go on your portfolio.
It's not that big a deal.
Yes.
But he's pointing it out.
What I can't figure out is why they aren't investigating that.
Or if they are, I would think that should be like bigger news than what it is.
You know, why is it a kid from Turkey who's over here who used to work from Rebel,
who's now independent, the one exposing all this, doing fantastic work I might add.
And nobody else is on it.
I'm like, this seems really odd.
Doesn't that seem really odd?
Well, part of it is independent journal.
journalists are self-directed. So he gets to chase the stories that he's interested in and
knows that his listeners and viewers are going to be interested in. So that's part of it. Being
independent lets you do the work that maybe larger organizations won't let you do. But the reason
or the reason why they're able to do this is because all of their, all of the mechanisms that
uphold those higher levels of government are stacked in the government's favor.
So he's not doing this.
He's not doing this in a microcosm.
He has an entire industry, a bureaucracy, that's allowing him to make these decisions on behalf of Edmonton, as are all bureaucrats, as they all are.
We have to take a real hard look as Canadians about who's making decisions and committee and subcommittee and municipal boards that allow this kind of corruption to unfold in our public institutions.
institutions like it is. Yeah.
You know, one of the things that I actually don't know what, I'll let you explain
and how about that. But you worked for John Gormley for or with John Gormley.
I was like, that's what I'm trying.
I work beside John.
Thank you.
I'm like, how about I say that?
No, with and four is also accurate.
I was on a show for nearly 10 years. Yeah.
You got to tell me a bit about that because you just said Moka gets to chase the stories
he wants to because he's self-directing as an independent and it's funny.
at where I sit, I kind of have the same freedom. I want to have lees in. You just have lees in.
That's right. Pretty simple. When you're with John Gormley, the John Gormley show,
how difficult was it to go chase stories like this? It wasn't at all because he let me have
all the leeway I wanted. That was sort of part of the role was to bring the stories that I found
interesting and sort of pitch them on the air. So I were with two dudes, Mike Carouse and John Gormley
and we were a little trifecta on the air.
We were on once a week.
He created a role for us to be on his program.
And so basically it was my job to bring the stories that piqued my interest or that got on my radar
and we would talk about it.
And we would see if our listeners would be interested in hearing more about that.
And so often it was like a story aggregator, right?
We would find little, you know, the beginnings of a story.
Yeah, pull on the string a little bit.
And then the newsroom would take it over, right?
The newsroom would start chasing these stories.
So, but there was, I don't recall a time where John told me no, ever.
Like, I don't recall a time where he told me no or rained me in or, you know, put any, put any, put any boundaries on what we were talking about.
It was all kind of whatever we wanted to talk about we did.
And so it was awesome.
It was a golden time of media before everything really changed in COVID.
So.
I feel like I'm skipping something here.
You have two typewriters in a sprinter van.
You work for John Gormley.
He created a spot on his show for you.
What did you, did you go to school? Did you? I was a, I was a copywriter. So I was a copywriter by trade. That's what I was doing is writing for advertising and marketing. I'm a, you know, a pretty clever writer, I think is how I've been described.
You wouldn't say, show us your Regina? I would not have said that. I would, nope, I would not have said that. I would probably go back to our royal roots because we're named after Queen Victoria. I'd probably go back like a like a rain in Regina or I don't know.
know what, but not show us your vagina. No. But yeah, I did lots of, lots of that work. Branding and
communications and stuff. And then a little website called Twitter popped up. Okay. This is back in the
day. And that's where I met Sheila Gunn. We, too, was on Twitter back in the day. We were both
young moms with little kids at home, telling off the left and trying to make each other laugh.
That's how it started. And John Gormley found me on Twitter. I had a couple of stories I did. I live
tweeted. Can I just say,
Some of my best guests have come off Twitter.
Like, you get to really see people work.
That's how I found Quick Dick MacDick.
Shush.
I was his first podcast he ever did.
He's a gem.
And John loves him.
Yeah.
I was literally like, well, you can tell John this.
I found him before him.
And John was the guy in all of Saskatchewan.
So is that right.
That is right.
I'm going to take that little jam.
That's right.
Okay.
But I started watching guys on Twitter because I'm more of like I try and like collect.
Yes.
And then bring them on here.
You curate them.
You curate them on Twitter.
Yeah, yeah.
And Twitter is a fantastic, it's one of the last places you can do that.
Maybe the only place you can do.
Twitter has always been ahead of the curve as it pertains to social media and mining stories and finding people.
And this is evidence by the news media sourcing all of their stories on Twitter for years and years and years.
This is where mainstream media finds their stories is on Twitter.
It's ahead of the curve.
Once it's a story, once it's a bona fide story that everybody is, you know, interested in, then you'll see it pop up on the Instagram.
the Facebook, on Reddit, on any of the other platforms,
but Twitter has always been the place that people go to be ahead of the curve.
That's a true story.
That's just a true story.
And now that it's X, it's...
X.
It's better.
It's better now that it's X.
Twitter turned into a little bit of a shit show.
Well, no, Twitter got...
Hydaqed.
Thank you.
Hijacked by ideologues.
Yeah, it did.
Yeah.
I mean, that should not surprise anyone on this show.
I mean, literally...
They've released the files, folks.
Go back and look through them and you go.
I got a good story to tell you how bad it was.
So back in 2017, Me Too, the Me Too movement, you might remember how that kind of went down.
I tweeted, Gillette, the men's razor company came out with this ad campaign called like Do Better Men or whatever it was called.
It was basically saying men, men, don't be terrible, awful humans.
Now in the Me Too movement, we're going to scold you.
And I went on Twitter and I said, you know, Gillette, you could have shone a light on prostate
cancer or men's mental health or heart disease or any number of the things.
Or propped up great men?
Right.
I don't know.
You could have done that.
Is there no great men out there?
I'm pretty sure there is.
According to Gillette, there was not.
You were all monsters.
And so I said, you know, you could have served your demographic, but instead you
emasculate them with this pearl clutching virtue signaling garbage.
And that went viral.
Like I've never seen a tweet go of.
Okay, it went, like my phone would not stop rolling.
Actually, I just went viral like last week doing the same kind of thing.
But in, now, I think it's just prudent to say, I am a Me Too girl, okay?
I don't believe that women should be sexually harassed or sexually assaulted in the workplace.
Okay, we are all agreeing that that's bad.
It's a bad practice.
You don't want to be Harvey Weinstein?
I don't want to be Harvey Weinstein.
Yep.
And, but I was canceled by those Me Too girls for telling.
Gillette to stay in their lane because Gillette should have stayed in their lane. So what,
what happened with Gillette is that campaign became the most disliked video on YouTube in YouTube
history. Okay. They lost, I want to say it's like 29% of their market share in that moment.
They, they told their committed shoppers that their committed shoppers were bad and they paid a price.
So along comes Harry's, along comes Dollar Shave Club, along comes all of the subscription services.
And everybody looks at Gillette and goes, who?
like who they canceled themselves in that moment so that's when i knew twitter twitter was bad
because twitter said to me about my tweet right take it we're going to lock your account until you
take that back that mean thing you set about that huge multi-billion dollar organization i was like
i'm not taking that back they're see well it's jillette i can't i use jillette like i steal
take it back lees you lees you can't be doing that you cannot say anything against the me too movement right now lees
you me too girl like it was insane so instead of taking it back i blitzed my account and in that
account i had Canadian senators I had every MP from Western Canada in that account I mean I had the
biggest players in in Canada I went you know what you Twitter you can keep it this is how bad and awful
you were so when Elon took it over I wrote a letter to Elon on my typewriter I was like hey but
hey but is it's it's safe for a person like me to come back and sure enough it is so it's great to be
Did he respond to your typewriter letter?
It came a long way around.
Like I got a response from a long, long, long, long way around, but I got a response to
it's one that I'm happy with.
So no, it's a place again.
You know how cool it is that you use a typewriter still?
I know.
I mean, I'm probably, I got to be close to the last age group that understands what a
typewriter is and probably had to use one.
Yeah.
And that probably comes from being in small town.
Yes.
Yeah, you've got to take it in high school?
No, I don't think I took it in high school.
That's what I mean.
I think I'm the last.
My siblings did, but by the time I got to middle school, we were learning how to type on a computer.
Huh.
And so what I find so interesting about the typewriter is you start with a blank page.
There is no backspace.
There's no delete.
There's no whiteout.
There's no number one.
There's no at symbol.
There's no exclamation point.
And what you start, you must finish.
So is it like therapeutic for you?
Oh, yeah.
You want to get your deep thoughts out.
You've got to take it to a typewriter because you, like you have to go through.
through it. You have to go through your ideas. There's no stopping and starting. You can't go
restart a paragraph or reword things. And at the end, Sean, nobody comes along and puts a little
hard on it that you did a good job. Like, you get right with your ideas on a typewriter. So,
and your beliefs and it just, it's just the best. Anyway, I, you guys are invited to come use
my visitors typewriter, all the listeners. You know, but when this airs, and I can already feel it in
the listenership, it's like, did we need a smile?
I think we did.
Lisa is doing a powerful job of making your smile today.
Oh, good.
You know, getting your thoughts out.
I want to stick on that.
Just for one second.
Yeah, go on.
Well, because think about it.
Getting your thoughts out now is Twitter, is Instagram, is taking a little,
and it's, you know, I got a, nobody can see it,
but I got a little journal that I write in.
I'm trying to be better at it because I find when I write, like,
because once again, you can scribble and you don't have,
nobody's putting a little hard by it.
Yeah.
But, you know, when you write out your thoughts, sometimes just like, man, that's stupid.
Why don't I think that you don't, but you get it out.
It's funny of getting it out.
It's a release.
It's a release.
Imagine the typewriter is, and I'm a Mac, you know.
I'm sure that's how you are in the sprinter van.
It's a noisy thing.
Like it clatters.
It's really noisy.
Do you put a smoke in your mouth too and just like chain smoke while you're trying?
Heck yes.
Like it is a vibe.
It's a whole vibe.
I very much.
Yeah, I very much recommend it.
It's the best.
It's the best.
Did you see Laurelind's interview with, who was it, folks?
Dr.
Dr. Drew.
Talking about how nicotine isn't the substance they made it out to be and he has a nicotine patch on.
I'm telling you, it makes you a more creative person.
Does this mean?
Don't get me wrong, folks.
I'm not going to start chain smoking tomorrow.
but like there's just something cool about chain smoking and I'm kidding a little bit.
My husband,
my husband hates it.
Like he hates it.
We all know it's the chemicals they put in it,
but I,
you know.
I was thinking we should start growing tobacco and greenhouses.
Well,
I think people have that honestly,
off of that interview that Laura Lind did,
and once again,
I'm spacing on the homeless.
It's a 100% of stimulant and it just, yep, yeah.
And it's also a unit of measurement.
Nicotine?
Well, a burning cigarette is a unit of measurement because basically it's like,
it's like,
it's like,
How long did that document take you?
About 18 burning cigarettes?
It's about 12 minutes per cigarette.
And you can light one and put it down.
And then the next thing you know,
it's a burned all the way out.
And you know that you've done 12 minutes worth of work on that page.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a whole vibe.
Like, I'm 1950.
Take me back.
I was born in the wrong decade.
Obviously, wrong era.
Yeah.
Yeah.
If I learned nothing else out of this, folks.
cigarettes are a measurement
or a unit of measurement
although I would assume the new ones
everyone says they burn faster
I don't know
I don't smoke
they do
I should say I smoke very rarely
no we I think it's a
I think it's a habit that
some people cling on to
simply because the government
the government says it's bad for you
and they're just like no you know what
you say everything is bad for us
and you try and police us every which way
it's bad for us in government
that's right
The government should be forced to put warnings on itself like it puts warnings on cigarette and booze.
Cigarettes and booze.
Carol Crosson?
Is that?
Forgive me, folks.
I interviewed a lawyer and she's passed away since.
Was she from Freedom's advocate?
Is that her?
Carol Crosson?
Yeah.
Carol Crosson?
Yeah.
So I interviewed her in the middle of COVID.
And I'm sitting there talking to her and I, you know, I'm definitely not as awake as I am right now.
And I'm talking to her and she's, you know, basically says to me, I'm like, the government, why would it, you know, why would they do that?
And she basically says, I'm a constitutional lawyer.
Yes.
If the government never broke the rules, I wouldn't have a job.
I'm like, oh, yes.
You are correct.
It's true.
The government is screwing us all the time.
Yes.
Surprise.
That's what constitutional lawyers do is challenge the government when they overstep.
When they consistently overstep, which seems like it's a boom in business.
Oh, more and more and more, Sean.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's, we are in an unprecedented time of government overreach
into our personal lives, infringing on our freedoms,
and changing the way that Canadian society operates.
I know you want to eventually get to kids in school and that.
I'm cool with this too.
I'm really, you worked alongside John Gormley for 10 years, correct?
And if you talk to anyone in Saskatchewan,
Up until COVID, I would say, they were a devout John Gormley follower.
I don't, I mean, as long as you're into talk radio folks, obviously, if you're not into that.
If you're a political, you listen to them.
If you were into, if you were in the tractor, you listen.
If you're in a tractor, I've had more farmers tell me, you are the woman that has been in my tractor more than any other woman.
They told me, yeah, that's the time I spent on the show, yeah.
It was quite the honor when I first started in the podcast and guys were telling me they were, I was getting them through harvest and stuff.
And I'm like, that's kind of harvesting canola.
Yeah. That might be the most badass thing I've ever heard.
I know. It's a compliment.
Yeah, it is.
John Gormley.
The state of, not John Gormley specifically, just with your background there, and you look at
this state of media in Western Canada. I'm not going to worry about the far side of Canada
for now. I'm just going to Saskatchewan, Alberta. You want to stick in Manitoba fine.
You want to stick in parts of BC, OK.
Yeah.
I probably should say better than okay because I know I love you all in Northern BC that listen
to me.
but why don't we have more of this or have you given it any thought?
We need to have more of this.
We need to have more of this.
When Pierre Pollyov becomes prime minister,
I hope he sells the CBC on the first day before lunch.
Do you think he will?
Oh, he best.
He said he's going to and he's got to keep his promises.
I think the Canadian public is so done with politicians telling us
they're going to do a thing and then they don't do it,
that if he doesn't keep those initial promises in that first term.
I think he's going to ask the carbon tax.
Well, he has to.
I think, I think, boom, that's gone.
He has to.
No, but we would see an almost immediate improvement in our quality of life
if we didn't have the CBC lying to us all the time.
The CTV and Global and all of the, you know, captured, federally funded mainstream media.
I literally cannot argue with you on any of this.
I'm not going to, I agree.
I just go, so if they get rid of the CBC,
you think it gives more opportunity for this to come above?
Without question.
Without question, we can get a word in,
normal people can't get a word in edgewise through the CBC,
their panels of experts,
their bureaucratic circle jerks that they participate with language.
But you know what I mean?
They have a, they have a thing.
That sounds like typewriter language.
There's chain smoke in here.
chain smoking typewriter circle jerks they they do have a they do have a network that they've
become overly reliant on they've become lazy journalists and uh the the stories that really matter
to people that would change hearts and minds aren't getting aren't getting told and aren't getting
oh there is it's it's such very rare cases but they are getting told well i don't know yeah
increasingly more and more
as the trust listen as trust in mainstream media goes down
trust in independent media goes up
yes and so just capitalize on that and don't stop telling the truth
that's that's the law that we just don't stop telling the truth
don't shut up no matter what they say and they will say
I mean the left will always say that you know they'll always
denigrate and insult and try and you know just try and overtalk
and out out network and it is the point
is not to let them, is not to let them.
Because we have real common sense people that are listening to us going, right.
They're right, actually.
Don't listen to the CBC and their panels of experts.
I did have the first listener call me right wing for the first time.
I was like...
Congratulations.
Well, I should say I was called a lot worse things during COVID.
But just recently I had somebody call me right wing and I'm like, right wing.
Do you listen to me all the time?
Well, no. I'm like, so you listen to one interview?
I'm like, well, I don't know. I've only done 650 some. I'm like, I don't.
The conservative movement has experienced a sort of a drift to the left, okay, a drift to the left.
I think over time, everything drifts to the left. Yeah. And so to be, so to be considered right wing is a supreme compliment. It means you're still rooted in.
Thank you. Thank you.
It means you're still rooted in a right.
reality. Okay. What is this? Is this a gift? Yeah, so everybody who comes to the studio gets one of those.
I get to spend it. What is this? Silver. It's real silver. It is. It is shiny like a, it is,
wow, this is beautiful. Thank you, Sean. Tell me about this. Well, so Silver Gold Bull is one of my
major sponsors. And for Jack, there you go. She's showing off the car. Van White, I've watched a lot
of vintage television in my videos.
So it's a silver coin.
And no, so they're one of my major sponsors.
They're out of Alberta Company.
And I look at today's world and I go, is the government doing things on the economy side
of things that people should be able to maybe pay attention to?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And so it's just like, you know, every once in a while you get a, well, I shouldn't say that, all my sponsors fit. And some just are like, they're so like, they just run into you at the right time. And Silver Gold Bowl, me and Nick were just talking the other day. And we kind of stumbled on to each other at the same time. And so now you got any guests that comes to the studio.
That's one of these days. Gets a silver coin. It's like, I'm not saying you got to have your body weight and silver and gold in your house. If I could afford.
it. I probably would.
Yeah.
But at the same time, today, like, you see all the insanity.
You say what? You say one wrong thing and now freeze your bank account.
You honk at the wrong person. They freeze your bank account. I want my, I want my weight in
silver. I want a typewriter weight in silver. There you go.
So that's, thanks for coming.
Well, thanks so much for having me, bud. That's a beautiful gift.
I got nothing else to say.
Has that what how are we doing for time?
Oh no, I'm kidding.
We got flooding with that.
Oh, by the way, we're out.
We're out.
We're out.
We're out.
We're going to get on the typewriters.
See ya.
See you.
So what are you writing about, what are you writing about like when you're on your
typewriter, you're getting your thoughts out.
What are you writing about now?
Um, right now I'm doing a lot of, uh, children's stuff.
So, so like focusing on the gender side of this?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And hammer it out on the keys.
Yeah.
Because our children have been told an egregious lie, an egregious lie.
And it is up to parents to walk them back from all of the highly confusing and highly damaging things that they've been told.
You know, I feel like, I mean, I feel like I'm on the edge of this.
Or maybe I'm not living in Regina.
You've got to tell me what you're seeing in Regina.
Because I think.
Regina is the epicenter for Saskatchewan.
Yeah.
I mean, they literally, what was the name?
You'll know this.
Woman of the Year was a dude.
Oh, the Nutrient Women of Distinction Awards.
The YWCA Women of Distinction Awards was Fay Johnstone.
Faye Johnstone, that's right.
That's a biological man, trans-identified woman that they brought in to tell all of our business
legends in Regina how to be better women.
That's what they did.
They booed an actual woman who brought greetings from me.
the government, they booed her, a breast cancer survivor.
They booed her.
Who booed her?
At that event.
Well, you know, the ally camp.
The ally camp at that women's women's banquet.
So at this banquet, there was a whole bunch of Fay Johnstone supporters.
Yep.
And they booed a breast cancer woman survivor in the government.
Yep.
Why?
What did she say?
Well, she was there representing the government.
And the government of Saskatchewan has taken a, a pre-executive.
pretty principled stance.
And this was even preceding it,
but because we're a conservative province
with a conservative government,
Saskatchewan was used as a testing ground in so many ways.
Dave, Dave Petru, how do we say Dave's last name?
The teacher from Petru.
Dave is another example of how Saskatchewan
was a testing ground on this issue.
So first, the YWCA brought in a trans-identified
biological man
to be the keynote
to be the keynote speaker.
I know we
this
man okay they brought in a
they brought in a dude right
that
I guess I'm not playing the word
mumbo jumbo that keeps going on
okay I try and be careful
I try and be careful
yeah but I look at it and I go like listen
you can
you can be whatever you want to be
that's fine
but guys can't become girls
girls can't become guys
they literally can't
Like, you just can't.
No amount of feeling or any piece of paper is going to change the irrefutable fact.
The only thing that keeps it going is how society applauds it along.
Well, it's federally funded all of it.
Wow.
It's a federal construct that's been foisted upon the people of Canada in through schools
and in through public sector unions and through activists to children as a solution to their problems.
So in COVID, kids, I mean, kids' lives, I don't think anybody was as impacted.
as those kids were, we asked them to pivot on everything.
Everything that was true and, you know, routine to them and normal was taken away from them.
And so then we had this whole generation of little kids that are searching and not feeling good.
And everything feels real shaky.
And then they go back to school and they say, well, maybe the solution to your problems is this gender.
Like maybe you're feeling bad because you have a gender itch to scratch.
When in reality, that offers no solutions to little kids.
matter of fact, it's confusing them more.
It's making them,
it's making them angry and frustrated.
And it's definitely,
parents are definitely feeling all of this.
Charlotte Sebastian, right?
Oh, yeah.
That happens.
That Planned Parenthood in Lumsden happened in June.
So Faye was in Regina in May.
And Planned Parenthood happened right after that.
And what's really interesting in what nobody knows is Planned Parenthood and the YWC case.
The YWC of Canada is supposedly a charity that serves.
women. It has been ideologically
captured since 2017 in a way
that is absolutely staggering. They're a
propaganda arm for the federal government,
the YWC of Canada. And the
YWCA of Canada and Planned
Parenthood and any number
of dozens of third-party organizations
are all working together
on this issue.
To propagate it into
the public sphere and to
push boundaries where they should not be
pushed. Lums didn't
happen. One of the things that I got told
after and I don't want to I'll probably get a few texts on this but one of the things that
happened after Lumsden was that's a one-off that doesn't happen everywhere it just happened in
New Brunswick it just happened in New Brunswick that was happening in Ontario like it's it's
it's not a one-off yeah go on sorry two was Dave Petru the thing that I got um an angry caller on was
they were talking about how Dave was trying to push religion on kids and how he was trying to
basically trying to remove him for that and he wasn't what he said he was that was the thing that got
pushed there and so i was like this is really interesting because uh when i have people on to talk
specifically about the kids i always piss somebody off like i just that's kind of you know part
of the course take it as a compliment you don't know if you're doing listen you know you're doing
the right thing if your enemies are mad about something you just said and that you can take to the bank
i love nothing more than on gourmly when he got flooded with texts about something i said from our
enemies like well done least that's a you said a good thing well the thing about it is is the the skeptics
go it's it's not happening that much it's it's only once in regina regina is kind of like an an isolated
thing right oh what happened in lumsden lumsden lumsden's pretty close to regina that's why it's
happening there but you know through school boards through covid while we were trying to survive okay
so this is school boards across the nation of canada they they came up with um gender and diversity
steering committees who then directed boards of education to start to start infiltrating gender
throughout the school. And this is the queering of math. This is the queering of kindergarten.
This is the queer like what it looks like to kids. So our school where our kids go for the
first seven years, it was a brand new school, but for the first seven years was completely overtaken
by gender activists. We have the 50 foot pride flag sidewalk in front of our school.
We had no fewer than, you know, 250 rainbow, you know, rainbow and blazing posters and, you know, little sayings and all sorts of.
Every day in kindergarten, kids in that school got sung, I can sing a rainbow.
This is right after O Canada.
Every day I can sing a rainbow.
Every day of their kindergarten experience, they get into grade two.
They get a teacher who tells them, boys can be girls and girls can be boys and you can just go in between them and you can do whatever.
you want, grade three, they get a new teacher that's telling them these things. Now,
our school has recently turned over, a whole bunch of staff left. But these organizations and these
activists. Is that from pressure? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Because gay, so every school has a gay
straight alliance. Many, many schools have gay straight alliances, but they've become so unpopular
that they've pivoted now to lunch clubs.
Sean, do you know the person that watches your kids at lunch at school?
Do I know the person?
Yeah.
Nor does any parent.
And that is where this gender thing is going to come from next.
You mark my words, it's happening in Britain and they've called it out.
There are parents in Britain that are saying, we need a national inquiry into school lunch clubs.
Because that is where they went.
They're not going away.
They're just becoming more insidious.
Well, then I actually, what I would ask of the audience is, do you know who's watching your kids at lunch?
And do you have a lunch?
Do you know their backgrounds?
Do you have a lunch program?
So every one of those people working in the schools gets 10 professional development days a year.
Do you know, can you name one of them?
Can you name one of the trainers that's trained your teacher or your school aid or your parents,
parents don't trust who is in our schools?
Because parents don't know who's in our schools.
We don't know their backgrounds.
We don't know their training.
We don't know their areas of interest or their passion.
they come into school and deliver this completely outside of the sight line of parents.
They do this insidiously, and the only reason parents know is because our kids come home and tell us what's happening.
Our kids are coming home and telling us what's happening.
I mean, ask them.
They will tell you.
It's, I feel, you know, every time I get into this conversation, because the listener knows, I'm married to a teacher.
Yeah.
She's a lovely human being.
Yep.
And I feel like we are one of the last bastions of like.
Normalcy in the world.
Yeah.
Like I just, I don't, it doesn't mean everything's perfect there.
But at the same time, I think they get a lot of things right.
Yes.
Right.
Right.
Like, I think, you know.
Yes, they do.
Sure they do.
And then.
And then I listen to like, Charlotte Sebastian would have been the first one.
And certainly the list goes on because it's, you're not the first one.
You will not be the last one to come in and talk.
about this and I'm like man like one breath I'm like I don't see what you're seeing in the schools
on the flip side on the flip side here in Lloydminster yeah it was um uh rendel park was one of the
schools that had a kindergarten kid come home with a book the knight and the prince or the prince
in the night I can't remember anyways this is a gay story about two you know a prince and then
a fairy tale it's a fairy tale a gay fairy tale yeah yeah and you're like why would a kindergarten or have
that book. Yeah, I have a friend that went through our library at school and pulled like three
dozen titles out of the library. And so you don't need, you don't need parental consent to get,
like the kids don't need parental consent to get their hands to those books. But the thing is,
for parents, if you're concerned at all about your school, right? You hear these things and you're like,
yeah. Is that happening? Well, just go ask. A, talk. So, so. And the library, you can go see if
any of those books are in. You can shine a light on it. Yeah, yeah, you sure. And, and we, and we, and we,
sure should. And do not shy. Listen, your kids are going to, your kids are going to, if your kids have
said something to you that gets your, you know, gets your ears to perk up. And you talk to the teacher
and you talk to the school. And, and, and they say, right, well, that's really not happening.
You know, it's just so rare that this would be. And, you know, we just really want to support the
kiddos that are telling us who they are. You say, absolutely not. And you bark it up every tree.
So you go to your school board, you bark it up that tree. And at the school board,
to stonewall you like they do.
If they try and talk over you like they do,
you bark it up the government's tree.
So what we have, for sure, 100% in Saskatchewan,
is at least three levels of government
that are all pointing at the other saying,
it's not our responsibility.
We would never do that.
It's not our responsibility.
We would never do that in the center of this drama triangle
of buffoons who are all pointing at each other going,
we just want the best for the kiddos.
We got the parents in the middle
with no off ramp to this.
the parents must build the off ramp to this.
Okay.
We've seen what happens when it gets entirely carried like out of control.
And the good, here's the crazy thing.
The good teachers, the teachers that want the best for our kids, the teachers that are
invested in their academic achievement, the teachers that want good outcomes for kids
are so busy being good teachers that even they don't see this happening in the schools.
You know what I mean?
It's not on their radar, but for the crazy.
activists for the for the school staff for the administrations that would hide behind their
rules and policies and regulations it's it's it's there to keep parents out because they know that
if they get our kids then they've got our kids for life well one one of the things parents have
dropped the ball on is not not being engaged yes yes 100 percent so so you know uh while we harp on
the teachers. Yep.
Being married to a teacher.
No, we've been, we've been asleep at the wheel.
We've been asleep at the wheel.
And I think that a lot of that is by design.
They've kept us, they've kept us hopping and on our toes.
They've been bankrupting us.
Everybody has to work harder for less.
You know, people are worried about how they're going to,
how they're going to buy groceries or heat their homes in Canada.
Those are huge stress stressors on, on families.
And I don't, I don't blame parents who believe that when, when they send their kids off
to school, that their, that their kids,
kids are going to be taken care of there.
I don't blame those parents.
But it's time for all of us,
all of us at the same time,
to say, right.
So something really devious and awful has happened in our absence,
and we need to take it back.
Yeah.
Well, once again, I go,
I didn't understand, you know,
this is kind of one of those thoughts you write out
and then you start to wrestle with it.
I didn't understand the importance of supper, right?
Having family supper.
Like, you do and you don't, right?
Like, I get it.
You want to be right?
around your family.
You want to...
Yeah.
But to me, it became...
An opportunity to talk...
Yes.
It's a health check.
Yes, brother.
You literally get to see how your kids do it once a day.
And you should strive for once a day.
Now, I can imagine you having six.
That becomes difficult because everybody's going in different ways and everything.
But you need to do it more than once a week.
Oh, yeah.
And switch up your questions.
So it's not like, what did you do at school today?
Because what are your kids?
What are your kids in?
Nothing.
Recess, they'll say.
You know, like that's the best part of your day.
I ask them, what are three great things that happened today?
Is there anything, like, is there anything weird that happened today that made you think just a little, like, hmm, that's weird.
I wonder what that's all about.
That's what I find brings out the actual conversations about what's really getting at my kids and what they're concerned about.
Yep.
I think that's good for parents.
Actually, you know, because beating the, it's not like I want to talk about this, but I want to get it past, like, yeah, things are going on.
I'm no longer, you know, if I go back in my COVID history story and if you go back and listen, once upon a time, Ocean Wise Black got arrested on an outdoor rink at Calgary.
And I made fun of them.
I was just like, just get off to outdoor rink, man, what are we doing?
Yeah.
And that was a dumb thought.
And at the time, I just, you know, it's in Calgary.
It's not going to come here.
Yeah.
I mean, we had her own lady arrested.
Miranda got arrested at the swimming pool.
You can think about it, not wearing a mask.
I still think about this.
She was not wearing a mask,
and if she's looking into the pool,
everybody's swimming, has no mask on.
Right, and they're chlorinated.
Like, it's actually, like, it's bleachy water.
Like, nobody is going to, I mean,
the overreach in that, the authoritarian overreach in that time.
So I think I'm past, like, is it here?
No, I already know.
You brought up Rendell Park.
You go, like, if it's happening in Calgary,
the seeds of it have already started to form in all these different places, right?
Like it's already starting to be pushed.
Yeah.
So, you know, it's like, well, what can a parent do?
You can go yell at your teacher.
I don't think that's going to go as well as you think.
You need to keep a really great relationship with your teacher because they are after all
the people that are going to, well, in large part, decide the success of your kids, right?
These are people with extraordinary powers that spend more waking hours with your kids than you do during the school year.
You have to keep it cute with your kids.
But school boards don't, and politicians certainly don't.
And if I was, I mean, I'm asking some pretty hard questions of people that want my vote this year.
Did you see my video, my Twitter video, when the NDP came knocking on my door?
Mother's Day. You can tell the people over that. On Mother's Day, the NDP came and knocked at
at Lisa's door. At brunch, okay, 12.08 p.m. somebody not, somebody rings the doorbell. We told the kids,
we're like, it's Mother's Day, so we're not going to make any plans until like later in the
afternoon. Mother's Day. It's your one luxurious day of the year where your kids burn toast and you have
to pretend to like it. But it's all about you. You get the beautiful little cards. It's really like a
once a year luxury. And so the doorbell rings. I look at our next.
and I see that it's our NDP candidate who has P.S. been at our house before and whom I've told
not to come back and who I told should be ashamed of himself for representing that party for the
stance they've taken against parents. And I just, my husband, I'll release his video on Father's Day.
He was, he's so great. People accused me of being rude. I'm like, it was Mother's Day brunch.
And this guy from the anti-parent party comes to my door. So basically I just opened the
the door and said, do you believe the teacher should keep secrets from kids? And he started with his
pre-can answer and I repeated myself, do you believe the teachers should keep secrets from kids?
And he said, yes. And I said, get off my lawn. I said to him, I shoot like I threw him off my lawn.
I don't think he'll come back. But that should be. I wonder if he knocked on the door and saw you come
in the door. Oh, crap. Oh, crap. Please that it would be her husband. He's so nice. He's so nice.
He'd never ask me that question, but not a word of a door.
I shan, a million people saw that video and now have their question for their elected officials when they come to the door. You should have your ballot question ready for when they come asking for your vote. You're on the water board. You want to join a water board? You want my vote? Do you think teachers should keep secrets from kids? That's my ballot box question. Get yours lined up people. Yeah. It was the best. It was the best. Million people now have that question to ask. Well, one of the things I, you know, when it comes to this, I come back to it. I want like new things like and,
you around the kitchen table new things to ask your kids good yes like i think that's that's um because
we all those parents go how was school day it was good if you want to if you do i don't know if you want to
know what your kids have been taught about gender in school ask them to describe it to you ask you
sit down at dinner and be like kids can you tell me what gender is and they will repeat word for word
what they've known what they've learned in school it's not hard it's not hard they will repeat it to
you. This is how I know. This is how all of the parents. This is how Charlah found out about
Planned Parenthood. Her son came home and told her, we must listen to what our kids are telling us.
Yeah? And not let this conversation be led by people outside of our family sphere of influence.
What families, for some reason, parents and moms and dads have sort of been tricked into believing
that we're too stupid to be able to discuss these things with our kids. You know, you have
have to have experts involved.
Bullshit.
I agree.
They're your kids.
I agree.
Have conversations with them.
I'm really tired.
The whole expert thing, like, oh, he's an expert.
She's an expert.
It's like, uh-huh.
They've been relegated to a trash sheep as far as I'm concerned.
How long have they been doing their job?
Yeah.
What qualifications did they get to get their job?
Yeah.
How long have they been, you know, case in point, my youngest son has had to go through a series of experts.
It's a lovely kid.
Absolutely beautiful human being.
But, you know, back when he was born, we almost lost him, almost lost my wife.
It was a, it was a touchy, touchy thing.
Very, very, that's an emotional story.
Regardless, I'll skip over that part.
Because talking about it does bring me back there.
Yeah.
It was, you know, like you get.
Scary time.
Well, you thought I was going to lose my wife.
Heck, like, Casey was like not moving, right?
Hooked up to like, so like I have, as much as I talk about health care and like how they screw
us really hard on COVID.
Yeah.
Got a lot of time for the maternity ward in Lloyd.
Like, without them, I don't know what happens.
Well, just, yeah, just like in education and healthcare, there are people that do such a
phenomenal job.
Phenomenal job.
Those people that are doing the phenomenal job aren't aware of the-
But as parents, we have to remind or remember, like, some expert comes and stares at your
kid for 15 minutes and goes, well, their feet are kind of crossed and it looks like the
can't, whatever.
And I'm like, hey, I'm around this kid all the time.
This is a healthy kid.
Like, he's a wonderful human being.
What do you need them to do?
We'll work on it.
You should know, parents should never trust anybody who purports to say that they know your kids better than you do.
You know your kids best.
You know everything about your kids.
I can tell my kids are getting sick by their smell.
Okay.
They have a, hmm.
That's a mom of sick right there.
I swear God.
I could, I could just get in their necks and they just have like it.
It's almost like a, it's almost like a vinegar or like a metallic smell.
That's what it smells like.
It smells like, it smells like silver is when it does.
Yeah, I can tell when my kids are getting sick by their smell.
I can tell when they're off.
I can tell when something is bothering them.
I could tell.
And so should every parent know those things about their kids and know the best ways to help their kids through their tough times?
Because every kid is going to have tough times.
And it's just a matter of weathering it together and finding a way.
Well, that's the one of the, you know, like there's no, even if there was a book on parenting, like here's a book.
Yeah.
Read this before you have kids.
You'll know it's like, yeah, screw that.
Yeah.
The only way through is actually like having it and then like not sleeping for way too many nights in a row.
And, you know, and like going through that and then you get through that.
And then it's the next thing and the next thing and the next thing and you've got six.
Yeah.
I feel pretty good at three right now.
You're putting me to shame.
But regardless, like one of the things that is a foregone conclusion with having a kid is there's going to be dark days ahead.
Right.
And it's trying to navigate those because, you know, you just look through your own life.
if you're sitting listening to this wherever you're at, you know, like there were some times in whether
it was in whether it was when you were really young or when you were in high school. Oh, yeah.
College, heck, maybe even in your early 20s, right? Or you had some tough days. There's always some
tough days. Yeah. Like it's just, it's part of life, actually. To be, and, and to be a constant as a
parent, okay, to be a constant, because parents are their, their own kids, constant humans throughout
their lives. Okay. Nobody replaces a parent in a child's life.
Government's trying. You're, you're, kick them out. Kick them out.
Off my lawn. But what, what becoming a parent does is it strips down who you think you are.
Okay, we all have lofty ideas. We think we, we are before we have kids. And then we have kids,
and you are destroyed by them, okay, in a million different ways.
Daily. And, and who you, but who you come back as is the person that you're meant to be.
You know what I mean? Like, like that relationship really builds you,
both into who you eventually become.
And so to put emphasis on it, to say that it's the most important relationship you'll have,
certainly up until the point where you get married or your kids pair off and go into their own lives,
the parent-child relationship is the most important, the most important.
Yeah.
It's pretty wild to see the world try and twist and turn that.
Oh, like Randall Garrison telling us that parents, I like to say parents don't have.
rights. You fucking sure about that, Randall? Because I'm pretty sure we do. And I'm pretty sure that
there, like, there is no mother or father alive that won't say, I would take a bullet from my kid.
I would do anything to keep my kids safe. And for them to say that parents don't have rights.
I mean, it's enshried in the United Nations, through the United Nations in the Canadian Constitution.
The right to education in Canada is held explicitly by the parents. Okay. There is no, there is no rights to being
a student in Canada, right? It is the right to education is held by the parents. So yes, parents have
rights. Look at family courts. Of course parents have rights. We don't, who, how many people,
Sean, do you know that has a baby? Okay, has a baby is in the hospital. And they say,
here is your brand new baby. And they say, I can't wait to see what the grade three teacher is going
to name you. None of us do that. Of course parents have rights. We have, we, we are the best,
We are the best people to uphold the rights of our children.
Can you imagine, though, if they, you know, they hand you the baby?
Now, what sex would you like to be?
So we're, you know, we're just trying to, we're trying to get the, we're just going to keep this one gender non-conforming, okay?
Until he gets that right teacher.
And then we're going to let the teacher decide what's happening.
That's, but the crazy thing, that's what's happened.
Thank God Saskatchewan has parental rights laws where parents now have to consent.
Thank goodness, Saskatchewan has the Saskatchewan
Because, oh, they're going to come hard on the right
And that's exactly what we need to deal with the drift to the left
Is somebody somebody on the right side.
You know, I want to make sure that I'm clear on this.
Yeah.
You know, like you go, oh, we got a great government Saskatchewan.
Yeah.
I'm not so sure about that.
But I tell you what you do have.
You have a great group of people in the Sasky United
holding them to task.
They can hold their feet to the fire.
Yeah.
And by doing that, they have to adjust.
So now they've become, you know, Tews would say, I said that he told me it.
And I always give Andrew Lawton credit.
I'm going to give them both credit.
Yeah.
Create the conditions so bad politicians do good things.
Yes.
Because the good politicians want to do it anyways.
Yes.
Right?
Yes.
And Saskatchewan has that.
Yes.
No, there, Randy Weeks, I'm not sure if you're following what was happening with Randy Weeks.
But Randy Weeks, the former speaker of the house, threw a grenade at the Sask Party on his way out of the wall.
I mean, I heard it.
from my house. I heard that grenade from my house. But he said a really interesting thing. He said,
and I'm not sure if I agree with Randy Weeks, okay, I'm pretty sure I don't, but he said, you know,
the Saskatch party, the Saskatch party was created by liberals and conservatives. And since Scott Moe took
over, it's taken a hard turn to the right. I'm not sure if I agree with any of that, but what he did
have right was that we had liberals and conservatives form the Sask party. And within the Saskatch party,
there have been liberal operatives that have let these liberal ideas take root in Saskatchewan.
That is what happened.
And so many of the issues that we're facing in education are a result of those harmful liberal policies.
And this is by accepting funding by having a network that the old liberals were working in.
And so the SAS party is turning over.
By playing political games and saying the cities think a different way than the
the rural part we got a pander to votes and I want to just yes yes yeah that's what happened so I've told
you my story about the about the ranchman from Saskatchewan who was a long time SaaS party
member tell me tell me though I want to know I bet I know him but go on he literally said he was
with our group and he was saying we asked what's one of the guys asked what's a woman and the
little you know like um uh well
I think, and he kept saying I think,
and really bugged me, because he was saying the right things.
And I'm like, why do you keep saying I think?
Right.
He's like, well, I mean, I believe this.
But, you know, from the SaaS party perspective,
you know, we have to approach the cities in a different way
because, and I'm like, but it's a lie.
Like, I mean, come on.
Like, I get it, the cities have a different need
than some guy out in the middle of rural Saskatchew.
Yeah.
When you're telling them,
then boys can be girls and girls can be boys.
You're just, you're like perpetuating something that's not true.
And at some point, if that's the only way you're going to win, you don't want to win.
I mean, I think it's, I think it's high time.
You just, like, maybe not.
We just, we just get on board the truth.
And this was a cattle farmer.
Is that right?
Is that right?
Think about that.
Yeah.
Well, you have to, it's really interesting because if you go back, so a lot of our voting decisions should be based like this.
Okay.
So you're going to have a slate of candidates to choose from.
And you should just go down the list of social media and check.
Okay, so go under your candidate for municipal council,
go to their social media and just search for pride or LGBTQ.
Okay, every time one of those two words is mentioned,
you should take a point off of where, right?
Like, this is how you can tell if they're liberal or not.
You can identify a fake conservative.
You can identify fake conservatives by how many times,
how much effort they've put into these liberalites.
Dias is what I'm saying. And that's what we have to do. That's exactly what we have to do.
We need a hard correction. Like I used to say, the pendulum is going to swing back to the right.
It's not. It's going to swing shot. Okay, we're going to pull that so hard and tight that it's
going to slingshot back to the right. And that's what we all need and deserve in Saskatchewan and
Alberta. And really, there's nothing that I will stop at to make that happen. There's nothing
out of the question. So if we can't correct it in the next round of
elections if it doesn't get corrected fast, especially as it pertains to women and children.
You know, notwithstanding clause, the whole thing. I would blitz the whole thing with notwithstanding
clauses. Just make the federal government know how serious we are about all of this.
And failing that, there's, I mean, I've always said that Lloyd would make the best capital city
for the Western Republic of Canada. It just would. There's nothing I won't stop at to make this
right. Lloyd Minster. You know, it's funny. It's,
been brought up an awful lot. Obviously, being a border city helps. Obviously, having no big
government, having no big union. Heck yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, it would be a perfect little,
a perfect little home base for whatever comes next. But we can't continue on with this trajectory.
We just get untenable. It's untenable. What they do to us from the east without representation.
It's crazy. So yeah, we've got to get our elected officials in line.
So what do you do in Saskatchewan? You're obviously speaking out about it. That's how you,
you got on my radar.
You know, I met you through the ladies coming to town,
but then, you know, sitting with Shea Gunnard,
and, you know, and now understanding you're with John Gormley at one time,
I'm like, oh, man, you must have a large network, I would say.
Are you pushing on that?
Or what do you see him?
Oh, yeah, no, no.
Like, everybody within my personal network.
And I just like knowing everybody.
I like knowing everybody.
I'm a friend to everybody, but the left.
They're not included in my no one.
But these are issues that I've been that I've been pressing on for, well, at least, at least the last two years that we need common sense to come back into public institutions, that trust in public institutions has eroded to a point that people don't trust health care.
They don't, they don't trust police, they don't trust our CMP, they don't trust the mainstream media.
There's a reason why people.
You've seen the statistics on that?
What?
Which one?
On the level of trust in all the answers.
Oh, it's just plummeting.
It's limiting.
Yeah.
And so what I'm saying is, you know, if you want to, if you, if you have any chance of regaining
that trust in those institutions, you're going to have to start listening to people like me
a lot.
You're going to have to listen to what we say and then implement those friggin changes as quickly
as possible.
They seem pretty hesitant.
It's wild because like politicians will never do anything without the pre-permission of their
electorate, right?
Like they always, always, culture always has to happen before a politician will make a move.
We knew this from Lumsden.
We knew that this out of control, crazy third party organizers were in Saskatchewan school,
sort of operating, but under the radar.
But it took Lumsden to propel the government into action.
And what we must know as a people is that we must give permission to our politicians before they will do anything on our behalf.
Because let's face it, these guys want to get elected.
They want to get reelected.
going to do anything that's going to, you know, hurt their chances. But what they have to understand
is if they don't do it, their competitor will. So it's like, it's like a two-way, it's a two-way race.
And it's, it's perfect for people. I mean, all you have to do as a, as a, as the voting public
is tell them what you want and don't stop telling them what you want until they do it or get voted out.
The only time that hasn't worked has been COVID. Oh, COVID was a, COVID was a terrible time.
though and we got it like it it happened from it happened from so many angles it came at us from so many
angles unrolled all at the same time like the weight of the bureaucracy was on the people and I don't
think that we understood how bad that would that would feel to us now we know they're talking about
new pandemics coming down the pipe like bird flus and stuff what are you going to do avian flu what are you
going to do disease X yeah what you're going to do
What am I going to do?
Yeah, I'm changing nothing, nothing.
Yeah, I just watched Peter McCullough talk about, you know, how they're coming in, you know, they're going to, it's going to be in the food supply, right?
Like how they're going to be, you know, killing off huge chunks of birds, essentially.
poultry, poultry farms, and then they'll find it in dairy farms.
Dairy farms and beef operations and, you know, feeder operations, yeah.
I, you know, one of the places I still haven't got to,
but I have a ton of respect from the story I've heard about La Crete
is they had a young, this is the story I've been told,
is they had a young woman die from near around taking the vaccine.
And after that, majority of the community said no more.
And then AHS showed up to like basically,
and they all came out and said, you can get the hell out of here.
And then AHS never went back.
And, you know, they were kind of like,
all this bad, you know, they're not doing the, you know,
and they had all these slander pieces and talking about how they, you know,
went against the restrictions and the mandates and whatever.
And I was just like, I just need to learn more about what you did.
Yeah.
Because like, you know, if they're going to show up to, you know,
as Peter McCullough would say,
he's definitely talking from the American standpoint.
But we can, you know, assume we're going to see some of that up here,
would be my guess.
Yep.
You know, like, if it just takes the community coming out saying,
get the hell out of here.
It's like, man, maybe we should figure out how to do that sooner than later.
Because, like, as far as, like, you know, masking and shutting things down and on and on,
I personally think, and I could be wrong about this, Lee's.
But I think if they tried to, like, walk back in, we got another bad pandemic.
We're shutting everything down.
I think you'd have a full out riot.
I think, I think the 20% of conspiracy there is tin hats would be like, I told you, I told you, and they'd be out there celebrating.
But then there'd be like 70 other percent of the population they would lose their crap because they've been like, you know what?
We haven't talked about it.
You know, we've been going along and we had the freedom convoy and we've been allowing you to do some things.
But now, now I'm really pissed off.
And it'd be kind of like in the middle of COVID, I said, if tanks rolled down the street, I think everybody'd snap out of it.
But as long as they just kept this incremental little approach to it.
Oh, the slow creep.
Then people are kind of like, well, it's not, you know, it's kind of like how I was.
Which is my spot.
I'm like,
ah,
it's not in Lloyd Minster.
It's way over in Calgary.
They're kind of weird.
You know?
And yet it just slowly did that.
They bring back COVID 2.0.
I think you got Timfoil hat people just putting it on.
Don't celebrate out in the streets.
They're just excited.
And I think the other,
the quiet majority loses their crap.
That's what I think.
Yeah.
So I don't think that's coming back that way.
That's why the bird flu and going to the farms.
And like to me,
I look at that and it sounds like,
you know,
once again,
I got a lot of time for Peter McCullough,
sounding like gain of function research again.
Yes.
Right?
Like you just,
F my life.
Yeah.
It's a really horrible,
like unprecedented times we're living through.
Unprecedented times we're living through.
But we have to understand as a public that our response,
our response is going to determine the course of action.
Through COVID,
we saw what,
you know,
the two-week circuit breaker did.
Okay,
we saw,
it was a two-week circuit breaker.
We were just going to take a quick time out.
Kids were all just going to take a quick,
time out we're just going to get things under control and it was business as usual.
It was 20 months.
Two-week circuit breaker took 20 months and I think...
And only got stopped because a huge chunk of the Canadian population said no more.
That's right.
Said no more.
So I think that we learned our lesson as the Canadian public and as the and as a worldwide public
that these elite fools, okay, at Davos, the ones that fly on private jets and, you know, jetset
around the world to make up all of the rules for the rest of us that they must not be
allowed to determine the course of our lives again they must not be allowed to nope stop them
you know i want to i want to hijack the the government's money because they seem to spend money
on just insane things like i'm just like how do i how do i get can can the audience and me figure
out, can independent media figure out just how we siphon off a billion dollars? And we say we're
for equality and inclusion and ESG and whatever words they want us to use. And then we just go spend
it anyways because they don't care and they can't seem to find a way to claw it back anyways.
Yeah. And we could just all be billionaires. And we could build like, you know, a giant
studio that houses all the best speakers and fly them in and have a private airport and all of a
sudden. And now all of a sudden, you go, it's private land. Nope, you can't come in. You've got to
have a pass. And, you know, and Tucker Carrolls, when he comes, he just flies in and he comes
into the studio and we do her show and he flies out. And I was like, how'd you do this? Well, you know,
we're for all for equality and, and, you know, whatever other words, I can't even think of it. Do you
have a pride flag? Diversity, inclusion, inequity. We run over the pride flag every time we land.
I don't know, you know, like I said it's there. And we just,
At some point, there's got to be a way to just hijack the government's money.
They're spending it insanely.
We need to.
So it's pretty easy.
We got to elect a conservative government because, okay, so let's not forget.
So it looks right now like Pierre Pollyov is going to have a runaway landslide win in the next federal election.
And then he will be in control of all of the per strengths.
And part of that is going to be austerity measures like we have never, ever, ever experienced in our lives.
So this is cutting out the CBC and there are billions of dollars of spending.
This is cutting out DEI initiatives and all of their billions of dollars of spending.
This is cutting out ESG scores, all of their billions of dollars of spending.
This is cutting out gender and diversity and all of their billions of dollars of spending.
We're going to take everything that's absolutely not necessary to the normal functioning of Canadian life.
And we are going to take their money away from them.
And then we won't have to pay so much in taxes as we try and digger.
I hope you're right.
He has to do it.
I mean, he absolutely has to do it.
Because if he's not a true conservative, right?
Like if he gets in there, if he's just sailing in on all the buzzwords and all of the, you know,
anti-carbon tax, whatever, he's going to be a one-term government.
That's it.
Conservatives are going to be a one-term government and they must not.
We need a push for two or three or four or five or seven consecutive terms to undo the harms
that have been done to us just in this last eight years.
and he'll be ways, he'll be looking for ways to, to decrease their spending.
Like, I'm available here, Palliab, if you want a list of things to defund, I'm here, girl.
I've been typing it out for the last.
She's been chain smoking and typing.
Yeah, yeah.
Crossing the country and her sprinter band.
Yeah, yeah.
But all of these things, like all of these things are just come at such an enormous financial cost to Canadians,
never mind a societal cost or the, you know, the economic cost.
But it's just literally billions and billions and billions of wasted dollars.
And this is something we can't afford to continue.
So I think they'll agree with me.
There's not a conservative that's going to disagree with me.
Well, I appreciate you coming in.
What we're going to do is we're going to slide over to substack.
We're going to take a pre-bos, folks.
And if you are on the substack, if you're not on the substack, come on all over.
And we'll have our final question with.
Lee, Marl.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Do I keep saying that wrong?
No, it's perfect.
Lease, yeah.
You're good.
I don't know, folks.
Come over to Substack.
