Starting point is 00:00:10 We have had closed captions for 30, 40 years, something like that. I remember when my grandma got a new TV and you could turn on and off and close caption. This stuff has been around forever because if it was a big deal for me as a kid in small town, Saskatchewan when I was a little kid, then I promise you it had been around in the big cities like Saskatoon and Yorkton for you. years before that. And yet some where along the lines, we decided that the press conferences need to have the sign language people in it. Not because the people who are deaf can't figure out what's going on with subtitles or
Starting point is 00:01:11 reading lips, but because it's a useless virtue signal. Because why actually do anything that can make a positive change when you can just throw taxpayer money at trying to look like you're awesome? Fuck, I hate these people. Mashup 11. All of them. Mashup 111. How's Tuesday doing? Tews is doing good. He's had a very long week. I don't think Tuesday is going to get up to much on Sunday.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Oh, fair enough. Mashup 1-11. Brought to you by the Parental Rites Tour featuring Dr. James Lindsay. That's coming real fast, Tews. Bonneville next Friday, June 21st. And then from there, it just picks up Emmington Red Deer on the 22nd, Calgary on the 23rd, Brooks on the 24th. And if you've never heard of Dr. James Lindsay,
Starting point is 00:02:00 while he's been on Joe Rogan multiple times, he's an American author, Ph.D. in Mathematics, and host the new Discourses podcast. You can get your tickets today, nice and simple. Written several award-winning papers, including one about unwanted sexual advances by dogs at dog parks and how it's basically rape in dog parks in Portland. uh,
Starting point is 00:02:29 the guy, uh, basically was trolling. He was trolling the far left woke idiots before we even knew they existed. Correct. Correct. And I'm just going to toss it in the, uh,
Starting point is 00:02:44 the comments here where you can get tickets. Pace that up. There you go. If anyone, if anyone's interested, brushfire.com backslash A&V is where they're at. There you go. Matt DeJong.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Oilers defense in the final looking like Sean's defense at noon hour. A little bit of inside knowledge there on that? I feel like this is going to be an interesting mashup. No worries, folks. I came ready. Oh, happy. What are you ready for? What are you expecting?
Starting point is 00:03:19 A Calgary Flames fan, happy the Oilers are down 3-0. I mean, let's not beat around the bush here, twos. Happy Airborne Friday, Jamie Sinclair. and the group and the Coots to 852 days behind bars. Christopher Carbert, Anthony Olinick. And I pulled up, man, where did it go? Jason Levine, there we are. If you're wanting to get a good feel, I talk Moka Bersergan a lot.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Jason Levine's had some interesting, he's been covering it as well, and some interesting tweets kind of outlining some of the things as the trial is progressing. and he had he had uh here i'll just pull it up oh man um boom boom uh background oh no no that's not what i want come on john come on where did you go here the first undercover officer did admit that she is a professional actor that has skills to lie and use emotions including crying on demand after all the entire time there the uCO's role is to lie and fake a backstory and support during the cross examines of both defenses this was witness had difficulty with details, contradictions, with notes, and several inconsistencies
Starting point is 00:04:31 spending most of her time in the kitchen. The witness didn't see any offenses past, present, or future. The reason to bring up the tweet is if you're wanting to find out more Jason Levine MP on Twitter, that's his handle, Moka Besergan. It's 852 days now and growing. And I think we should all be paying attention here in Alberta and across Canada to what's going on there too. That's genuinely interesting.
Starting point is 00:05:01 I had heard about her crying on the stand, but I hadn't heard the fact that she was a failed actress. Become a failed actress and get people into jail. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's, it comes across as a little bit suspicious and suspect and just us in general that you would have, a trained Thespian as the undercover officer who, while on the stand, says that she spent
Starting point is 00:05:34 most of her time in the kitchen. Sexist jokes aside. It almost wrote itself, too. Yeah. And then she's being caught basically just getting all her facts wrong. Maybe we should start trying to hire competent people. Although I could see how you're like, okay, well, you know what, we've got this presumably beautiful woman because, you know, failed actress, she's probably easy to look at. Let's put her undercover. Yes. All right. Headlines, two's, shall we begin?
Starting point is 00:06:10 Well, I don't know where we should start with this, Sean. Let's go with Old Faithful. The NDP are not a serious party. There, there you go. This is Mark Holland. How to show my support while in Emmington. and let's bring the cut back. Sorry, I thought we were tying that one into Mark Holland's liberal, by the way.
Starting point is 00:06:29 I know he is. I'm reading your headline and I'm pulling up what I got. Okay, all right. Okay, well, yeah, so let's start with the oiler stuff. Yeah, perfect. Okay. So it's not the oiler stuff. We're talking about the guy who says don't take any road trips.
Starting point is 00:06:41 Because you're going to burn down the planet. Right. And two weeks later, he shows up at Edmonton for a photo op. Correct. Don't take your family on a road trip this summer. But here's me in Edmonton holding a cup. which is something that's not going to be said very much in the near future, I don't think. Not have to keep playing the way they've been.
Starting point is 00:07:04 What you got next, dudes? Okay. Now let's go to NDP. NDP are not a serious party. An NDP MP, you know what's funny? Before we started this, the amount of text I got that said twos is going to be insufferable today. I'm like, yes. Yes, folks, he is.
Starting point is 00:07:20 And that's okay. We can do this. Last week, I was like if somebody was saying that if the U.S. I got a bunch of texts and messages and stuff saying that if the Oilers win, I'm probably going to have to quit watching the mashup. Well, I'm glad people are tuning in. The NDP MP who frequently joins parliamentary proceedings
Starting point is 00:07:42 remotely from her riding, build the hose of commons for a trip she took to reportedly meet with stakeholders over the Christmas holidays in Quebec. Travel that included bringing her husband and kids along, of course, at taxpayer's expense. Paralyatory travel records indicate
Starting point is 00:07:57 Nikki Ashton was only in Ottawa on one occasion for four days during the fall sitting in 2022. But on December 21st of that year, she flew from Thompson, Manitoba to Ottawa for five days after the House of Commons, just past five days from the House of Commons had already risen
Starting point is 00:08:12 for the Christmas break. The trip cost taxpayers $17,000, including $13,000 for airfare and other transportation, 2,500, accommodations of $1,500 for meals, other incidentals, according to Commons records. First off, I think it gets laid out pretty clearly here.
Starting point is 00:08:33 She can't even be bothered to show up in Ottawa for her actual fucking job, but she decides to make a trip on December 21st, which actually has her starting off in Ottawa and ending up in Quebec fucking city with her whole family, $13,000 worth of transport and accommodations. Like, I couldn't even imagine. Like, if you took the entire. entire fam family to Central America for a week, it would cost you two thirds of that.
Starting point is 00:09:05 And some all-inclusive resort. And she's just, oh, yeah, yeah, no, it's totally fine. And then really dodges around the details on it. The other one I wanted to talk about was Jagmeet Singh. He says, an NDP government will ban corporate grocery chains from throwing away or destroying unsold food. instead we'll force them to donate it to food banks. Do you know why food gets thrown away in grocery stores?
Starting point is 00:09:37 Past its expiry date? Yeah, or it goes bad. Imagine you're going through the produce section and there's some rotten ass potatoes, you know, with all the spuds coming up and everything like that. And you'd be like, why the hell are you guys? No one's going to buy this. Yeah, but it's legal for us to get rid of it.
Starting point is 00:09:57 We're required by law to keep. keep it on the shelf because we didn't manage to get it to the food bank in time and we're not allowed to throw it away and we can't destroy it. So we're now required by law to keep those potatoes on the shelf for the rest of time. Nikki Ashton going back to her, she says we must decolonize the health care system. And another one, NDP immigration critic Jimmy Kwan is putting forward a motion for a unanimous consent. Bill C-71 will give a quoted second generation
Starting point is 00:10:32 Canadians born a brown, around. Broad. A broad. Oh, it does say a brown. A brown. Citizenship to Canada. Is that a race thing? A brown? No, you're probably right. It's probably
Starting point is 00:10:48 meant to say abroad. Probably meant to say abroad. Canadians born abroad citizenship, Canada. Damn it. Who? Who? Who? Put the on the television. I'm Rod Burgundy?
Starting point is 00:11:02 I'm not a serious party? Yeah, this is How about we just kind of just chill the fuck out with all of this? Let's make everybody a citizen thing. Or let's just actually do what they want to say and just say passports don't matter. There's no such thing as citizenship or non-citizenship. We want seven and a half billion people to vote in the next election. Cancel culture gets canceled.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Are you, are we talking Twitter here? Yes. We talking? Yeah, all right. Your likes are now private. That's one of the things that Twitter has just done. Thoughts, too's? I think this is wonderful, not that I worry about it too much because I have a secret identity.
Starting point is 00:11:55 I'm like the Batman of the internet. Sure. But you'll see every once in a while on somebody's Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram or whatever, they're going to say like likes or retweets do not equal endorsements. And it's stupid that they feel as though they even need to say that. Because you could just your butt, you could have the phone on and you instead of butt dialing somebody, you could butt like something. And then people get butt hurt about the fact that you butt liked something.
Starting point is 00:12:24 And now all of a sudden you're worried about keeping your job. It's absolutely silly. It's asinine. And from a business standpoint, it holds people back from engaging. in Twitter as much as they would perhaps want to. And so why would you not try and remove the barriers? And the best part of it, though, is that it ends up taking away from people who just try and people like the Canadian anti-hate network who just want to cancel everything.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Cancel everything, everybody. So, for example, here you've got Faye Johnston, that deal. I think he's from vagina. Got the long hair. One of the ugliest looking women you could ever possibly imagine. In case anyone was wondering, or sorry, let me try this again in a more accurate voice for this transvestite. In case anyone was wondering where Melissa Lansman stands on the LGBTQ plus issues in 2024,
Starting point is 00:13:26 she's liking tweets from a man who made a career out of anti-gay discrimination. with the tweet in question blaming human rights activists for declining public support of gay rights. I think that's pretty fair to say, by the way. So what's the unintended consequence of hiding everybody's likes? Well, apparently it's going to cause a sharp increase in far-right extremism, according to the Heron-Fire Fire people. I tell you, I tell you, I don't think, if, if you're worried about what you like because you're worried about getting canceled, we got to get past that, in my opinion. Like, that's my opinion. So, so hiding it allows us all to be anonymous again on what we, we enjoy and whatnot.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Now, in fairness, I mean, it's still going to show how many likes a tweet gets, just not who liked it. And maybe that's a good thing. I don't know. I'm, to me, I think it's a good thing. I imagine you're going to see a lot more people creeping on, um,
Starting point is 00:14:34 attractive women's posts now. Because you'd be like, oh, that's a great picture. I really appreciate that. Yeah, but I don't want to like it because, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:44 I think that's probably, uh, that's probably going to be the unaffected, uh, unintended consequence. Layoffs? Not layoff. Uh,
Starting point is 00:14:55 layoffs not laying off. Uh, I don't know. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm chuckling at the, uh, the, the next thing. Um, course, uh, Tuesday, uh, we're trading at 28 cents, a drop of 95% in the last five years. Need I say anymore? Need I say anymore? Yeah, is dying. So this whole thing has been a war of attrition. Basically, this is, this is like World War I where there's just sort of this weird stalemate. And the first people to run out of bullets and sandwiches first loses, right? And, and if,
Starting point is 00:15:27 you've lost 95% of your market cap you're losing five years five years we we say that it like when when we say uh legacy media or or corporate media or mainstream media however you want to call it is dying like that chart right there i am i don't even know what do you what do you i mean it's just who it's just one one example of a of a more like of a larger not even problem because it isn't a problem in my mind. It's showing you exactly where it is and why they keep asking for government bailouts and help.
Starting point is 00:16:04 And the thing about it is is that I'd have a bit more sympathy for them if these news organizations spend a bit more time on the news instead of just parroting bullshit talking points. But if they did that twos, then they wouldn't have this problem, right? If they actually reported it on the news, right?
Starting point is 00:16:20 You go back to the Freedom Convoy. If they actually just went and watched it, filmed it, talked to it, talked to some of the supporters, talked to some of the people who didn't like it, talked to the organizers, they would have been, they would,
Starting point is 00:16:33 they would, that little graph would be going the other way. Instead, they did what they did. They've shown their true colors. And this is the result. Nobody is paying attention anymore. Nobody cares.
Starting point is 00:16:43 You've done it to yourself. They're a news agency, they're news agencies that don't report the news. Okay, this here's a glass. If this had no bottom on it, if it was just open, it would hold nothing.
Starting point is 00:16:54 and just like them, it wouldn't hold any water. The thing about it is, is how much use would you have for a glass with no bottom on it? About as much use as you'd have for a news agency that doesn't report the news. All right. Ken says, if you like the mashup, you were on a list. I imagine that's probably correct. And you're going to be on that list even more, Kevin. Yeah, yeah, that's probably true.
Starting point is 00:17:27 All right. Oh, shoot. Where did we go here? Oh, yes. Ottawa trying to be less like Ottawa. Mayor Mark Succliffe no longer wants to hear that Ottawa is the town that fun forgot. It's an insult and we shouldn't be repeating it. This after an extensive recruitment process, the city of Ottawa named Matthew Grondon as the city's first ever nightlife commissioner. We reported on this a little while ago. yeah in April of well go through I'll yeah go through it no that that's pretty much what I got I didn't even pull up any of the I should pull up some of the articles so I can show people the guy and give me give me a sec but they hired it he's he's right here
Starting point is 00:18:11 there he is look at that mustache he looks like a fat um Zoro he's just like like if Zorro had a fork instead of a sword this is what he would look like. Sure. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Now, we did report on this. In April of last year, Ottawa decided that they were going to move forward with getting a nightmare to try and reinvigorate the nightlife. And Ottawa, because they wanted to figure out Ottawa being the most Ottawa place that could ever be Ottawa, spent 15 months deciding who they would hire to move forward with this government-mandated project
Starting point is 00:18:55 to make people have more fun. Correct. So, yeah. Don't you think, don't you, don't you, I was reading in one of the articles, I should put it in here. One of the, one of the things they were, like his, uh, uh, resume of who he is. Mm-hmm. It said he, he hosted a couple events and 600 people showed up. I'm like, that's...
Starting point is 00:19:20 So you've done that. I know. I'm just like, okay. And he's from Montreal. And listen, maybe Montreal and Ottawa love each other, maybe. But it'd be like hiring a nighttime commissioner in my mind for Calgary from Emmington or vice versa. I'm like, that doesn't make any sense. Why do I want somebody from the other city coming into my city to run our nightlife?
Starting point is 00:19:41 We, they know. Like, why wouldn't they go within Ottawa? I mean, if he's from Montreal, maybe they'll bring in a whole bunch of awesome strippers or something like that. Right? I mean, that's basically what Montreal is known for. So what did you do?
Starting point is 00:19:55 What did you do in your first month? A nighttime commissioner. Uh, but in Zia, how you say, uh, closing removals. And then people started showing up. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:20:12 um, instead of a fiscal deficit in Ottawa, we had a clothing deficit. And believe it or not, it was a hit. All right. Calgary water fiasco. is sunk.
Starting point is 00:20:25 I mean, you're the guy living closer this. I'm really curious to get somebody a little closer to the situation.
Starting point is 00:20:31 But here's a couple things. Mayor Jodi Gondack says she doesn't know what caused the giant water main break, but then suggests she
Starting point is 00:20:37 does. She blames the province and Ottawa for lack of funding. Not in this situation, she says, but the pipes are very old because of those other guys.
Starting point is 00:20:44 And then quoted, I have to say that without a stronger partnership from the provincial and federal governments, the city takes on the full cost maintenance works,
Starting point is 00:20:51 she told global news. That's literally their job. Premier Daniel Smith responded quickly and calmly in the circumstances. Quoted Mayor Jody Gondack has never asked us for funding to repair their water supply infrastructure, Smith said in a statement. This year we're funding $223.2.23 million to the city of Calgary for local government fiscal framework funding with no strings attached. I do have this picture as well. Yeah, this was a patch on it that let go.
Starting point is 00:21:19 Yeah. Now, I just, I'm not a huge. expert on water movement but I feel like if this had been an oil pipeline you probably would have done something a little bit more thorough that what looks like bubble gum and bailing wire right yeah I yeah twos I looked at this for a long time I'm like like who in their right mind would have thought this was a good idea just cut the section out put a new section in, seal the edges, and be done with it. But this has been going on for a couple weeks now.
Starting point is 00:21:59 And you've got, it's supposed to be going on for another week because they, they were having trouble finding the replacement. The big thing I've found is that they keep saying they're running out of water. Okay. So from what I understand, about a quarter of the city's water comes through that pipe, assuming that it's not leaking. from Bears Paw, which is northwest, northwest Calgary, a quarter of the city's water comes in there through that pipe.
Starting point is 00:22:28 So it's not like they're running out of water. It's that their ability to get the water to the, to the houses and businesses and whatever else has been throttled back. So it's not, it's not like the water isn't there. It's just that they're, it's like having a highway go down, to one lane basically right now. But they keep saying they're running out of water and they're running out of water. And the messaging
Starting point is 00:22:58 has been atrocious. Like, report your, report your neighbors if you see them using water any way that's bad. This is basically like that old episode of family guy with Adam West where he's like, somebody's been stealing my water. And it's funny because that was the
Starting point is 00:23:15 mayor too. Right? And so the communications has been, have been utter garbage with this. you've got a city that's far more concerned with having rainbow asphalt above the water lines than what's actually going on in and around them. And then when something does go wrong, rather than her saying, well, yeah, sometimes things break, but we're going to get it fixed right away.
Starting point is 00:23:42 She says it's Daniel Smith's fault. Another thing that you'd put in there was it said the decision to ban all Hotworts in Calgary has left at least 800 roofers without work during a prime construction period. We urge the CFD to reconsider and implement a balanced safety first solution that doesn't halt the construction industry. And then it goes on to explain what that all means and what work is not. Yeah, you weren't allowed to put shingles on your roof because of the water main break in Calgary. And then eventually this got resolved. But for a while, people were like, are you fucking kidding me?
Starting point is 00:24:23 So, yeah, it's been a gong show. Dick gets cut off. Transgender swimmer Leah Thomas will not take part in the upcoming Paris Olympics. After losing a legal battle in which she argued, the rules prohibiting her from participating were invalid and unlawful. Yeah, they're basically saying that it's not that they're saying she can't, he can't participate. They're not saying you can't go to the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:24:59 they're just saying if you as a dude want to go to the Olympics you need to compete and qualify as a dude and then she's there he's there whatever the hell going well you know what
Starting point is 00:25:13 I think this is a real dick move but it's good that there's finally some common sense poking its head up taking care of Bison O liberal MPs are an update by the way yes liberals are rejecting opposition efforts to call for employment minister
Starting point is 00:25:34 Randy Bissono's business associates to testify before the parliamentary Parliamentary Ethics Committee saying conservative members are abusing committee powers. Well, they unanimously passed a motion to have Cabinet Minister Randy Bissano, business associates testify in an extended meeting. On Tuesday, the motion calls for Stefan Anderson, who co-owns a global health imports with Bisonau, and Kirsten Poon, a lobbyist with ties to the minister, to appear before the committee for an hour. haven't set a date yet, but they are going to have to testify tos.
Starting point is 00:26:07 So this is Randy. This is the other Randy that we were talking about before. Who is this other Randy? What role does he have? So the opposition was saying, okay, we'll give us, like, give us some proof that there's another guy named Randy at this company. And they're like, oh, this is a huge overreach. This is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:26:27 Why can't you just take our word for it? We weren't lying about S&C. Lavelin. And so, anyway, after all this pushback, they said, screw it. You guys are going to have to testify. And the NDP, for some stupid reason, or I'm bored with that too, which is awesome,
Starting point is 00:26:42 I guess. Maybe they didn't read it correctly. But now the two head honchos at his company, which it seems as though, I mean, this is just from what I've been able to piece together, it seems as though he just plays a middleman for third world manufacturing facilities to the government. I think is how this company works,
Starting point is 00:27:06 which is exactly the kind of just side business you'd expect to have some greasy fucking liberal who ends up being a cabinet minister. That's exactly what you would expect to happen. So anyways, hopefully it all comes out. You also had Andrew Shear tucked in there. The conservative motion passes. All files on Trudeau's $1 billion green slush fund
Starting point is 00:27:28 will have to be sent to the RCMP, over $120 million in taxpayer money abused, over 180 conflict of interest at the fund. This is nine years of Trudeau. So if you guys remember this was where the president resigned and then a week later the CEO resigned. Basically they said, we need you to testify. And they said, too late, I quit.
Starting point is 00:27:50 And you're like, well, that's not suspicious. I like the first comment. The cops aren't going to do anything. I had the same thought when I read it. Absolutely. maybe we'll be you know maybe we'll be surprised and something will happen that
Starting point is 00:28:06 you know Glenn Gebert says another episode of Find Randy yeah I know that the liberals are also well known for their sex scandals so it'll probably be a little bit confusing when people start saying in Ottawa
Starting point is 00:28:22 that they've got that they've got Randy so hopefully this turns around for them this week in bears. The death of a rare white, I'm going to pull it up here so people can see. Oops, no, you pull it up.
Starting point is 00:28:39 Okay. This death of a rare white grizzly bear in the Yoho National Park, just two days after Cubs dies has sent a rippling sadness across the wildlife community. Nicoda officially Bear 178 was found deceased on June 8th and is believed to have died from an internal injury sustained in the collision in Yoho National Park in BC on the Transcanda Highway near the lake. O'Hara turn off on Thursday, June 6th, and her two Cubs were killed in separate vehicle incidents on the highway earlier that day, right? So three hits in a day.
Starting point is 00:29:13 Yeah, which, I mean, if they're all hanging out by the highway, it's not as though there are three isolated incidents, you know, but not awesome. I will say this, though, they do happen. It's not completely unheard of, but they're saying, oh, we need more wildlife conservation because we're worried about this white bear. Well, I guess, I mean, your options are
Starting point is 00:29:36 you could have put it in a zoo if you wanted. But I would say that a white grizzly bear is, are we sure it wasn't a polar bear? I'm assuming yes. It's just a little bi-in-resliber. I would assume yes.
Starting point is 00:29:56 Got it. I hope, right? I mean, it would be funny if it had been... It was it, polar bear? That had gotten lost. The news is gay. A new study of LGBTQ2SLAA plus. Representation in Canadian film, TV, streaming, and video game industry says there are significant gaps in how the diverse community is portrayed on screen.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Despite some recent improvements, the paper published today by Pink Triangle Press says a majority of industry professionals agree. The portrayal of this community characters is frequently superficial. stereotypical focuses solely on trauma. Yes, it also said that gay men are represented about 7% of the time in movies, which is probably, I would say, maybe a little bit high. I mean, don't get me wrong. I know a few gay people, but I really don't know many. And I would say that 7% is probably somewhere around a decent,
Starting point is 00:31:01 representation of how they actually, you know, exist in the... 2020, 2015, a separate health survey said 1.7% of respondents identified as gay, lesbian, or bisexual. So 1.7% of respondents said they were gay. They're in seven... They're 7% of characters in movies, and they still feel underrepresented. This is... They're represented it four times their demographic. This is the point, too.
Starting point is 00:31:31 This is like to me until this gets put back in its place, it's just going to continue to grow because what do they want? They want it in every movie. Go back to was it the Academy Awards? Remember when we were talking about the way you could get, you had to have a lead role on a minority, you got to have that. And you're like, so this isn't going away.
Starting point is 00:31:52 We're seeing it in video games. We joked about the new Assassin's Creed and what they did there. And, you know, we're seeing it play out with the, different storylines across almost every universe, uh, story arc through Disney and everything else, how they're just, they're just filling it full of junk.
Starting point is 00:32:10 If you haven't heard what's going on an acolyte. I haven't heard what's going on an acolyte. It's pretty bad. It's pretty bad. It's trending on Twitter right now. Uh, basically, um,
Starting point is 00:32:19 a bunch of lesbian, um, force people, um, managed to just conjure babies out of the air, you know, because they don't need no man. Uh,
Starting point is 00:32:29 but then you got stuff like this. This is Frederick. That literally Acolyte. That's what they did. Oh, man. This is, this is Fredericton.
Starting point is 00:32:38 This, let's just pause it here real quick. What color is he painting right now? Uh, looks to be red. Okay, what color is the brush painting right now or the roller? I can't see.
Starting point is 00:32:51 All right. It is, if you were to zoom in real quick, it's just for show. There's no paint on it. and if he was painting it, why would he be standing in the stuff he just painted? Very good points.
Starting point is 00:33:11 So, yeah, this is, it's all performative bullshit that nobody really wants to get behind. They're just not willing to say that they think it's performative bullshit. And then here's another one. Yeah, just look at some of those pictures. The skid marks. Oh, the skid marks. It looks like people have actually been going across it.
Starting point is 00:33:30 and people threw paint on it. Because they're saying, well, we can add whatever the fuck we want to this flag anytime we want, but not you guys. Well, Lyme, a popular electric scooter and bike rental service has announced it will be implementing a no-go zone around crosswalks painted with the large pride flag mural in Spokan, Washington. The crosswalk has become the center of much discussion after the arrest of multiple teens for making skid marks on the painted pavement. So now they're not going to allow their scooters to work. Imagine being so stupid that you paint a gay pride crosswalk and then be surprised when a bunch of scooters show up. They're talking, a group of five or six said started doing donuts. I'm like, what?
Starting point is 00:34:16 I'm like, at any point, do you see a kid here do a donut? No. No, you see one pop a wheelie and that's it. But, hey, why get, why let facts get in the way of some real good news, right? chorus entertainment okay let's see here visit China
Starting point is 00:34:40 twos you tell me great wall I just wanted to point out you've got the terracotta army you've got the forbidden palace the great wall of China there's so many beautiful things to see
Starting point is 00:34:53 in China and now you can be reasonably certain that you'll be able to leave on your flight home it's wonderful and the time is probably now to go for a trip to China. Oh, how the mediocre have fallen. Uh-huh. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:16 Well, I tell you what, we're down 3-0. And I'm going to be honest, when you first set this one, I'm like, that is me right now. Like, oh, 3-0, you know? Tough, tough go. I like this one as well. I'm in danger. And I also.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I also thought this one was pretty good. You know, it's funny how Calgary Flames fans have taken to the Panther bandwagon or the Dallas Starz bandwagon or the Vancouver bandwagon or the L.A. King's bandwagon. They seem to find their way. And here's twos. I think it's absolutely wonderful. Your Photoshop skills are a little bit weird. But I would absolutely wear that.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Yes, 100%. So you're not even really mocking me. and now you guys are down three nothing. I get the fact that Edmonton, the Oilers are real big into this whole gay pride thing and it's gay pride month. But coming from behind isn't quite what you think it means. I can't take credit for this.
Starting point is 00:36:24 The machinist sent this to me and showed it to him because I was like, this is fantastic, right? Like right there epitomizes twos in a nutshell and pretty much every other Calgary Flames, They're all tuning in. I wouldn't be able to tune in to the mashup if they won. Well, there you go. Put on your flames, fat jersey.
Starting point is 00:36:41 Put some other crest or slogan on the front of it. Because you guys have been golfing for way too long. The Oilers down 3-0. We're going to do our best. You're going to show the dogs. Yes. So this is the Stanley Pup. I quite like this.
Starting point is 00:36:56 This is a nice thing I think we can all get. Zoom in on it, twos, or make it full screen. All right. So what happened was they did this Stanley Pup. where they had a bunch of dogs playing hockey and it was a fun event. But then dogs being dogs, they ripped off the blue line.
Starting point is 00:37:17 You gotta be kidding me. But yeah, they had one, it was with some adoptive shelter. And so they had one dog for every team that was in the playoffs. So the flames didn't get one, but I think it was like Connor McBeagle or something like that.
Starting point is 00:37:35 For you clowns over there. The comment's been flying. And we should probably look at these because I'm guessing at least one or two of them I have to do with with hockey. Gary says the N. Gary Moester, hey, how's Gary doing? The NHL is fixed, he says. And I would agree. You know, I think all the call has been going Florida's way.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Leanne Taylor says off a side twos. Well, there's an extra F she put in there for me. I think that's probably fitting. It's interesting. I was hoping. I'm glad you can make it today, Leanne. We've decided to unblock you so that you can
Starting point is 00:38:13 be here to hear all of this stuff. I think, you know, the Oilers aren't completely finished yet. There have been, I think, three teams in the history of the NHL that came back from 3-0 deficit in the finals. I thought it was only once in the finals. I think it's three times all time.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Three times in the playoffs, once in the finals. I think that, let's, be very, you know, an oiler fan sitting here. The, the, the magnitude of what they have to pull off. I'm just so happy for what they've accomplished. Even if you don't get into the conspiracies of Gary
Starting point is 00:38:47 Batman, not wanting the cup to come up to Canada. It's not a conspiracy. Well, and I agree. But like, even you take that aside, the Florida Panthers have, I mean, Brovsky's been fantastic. When, when the, uh,
Starting point is 00:39:01 Panthers were flying in to, flying into Edmonton. The air traffic controller was joking with them about diverting them. And then all the other pilots on the channel were just kind of having a fun little conversation about it. And even one of them was like, yeah, Gary Batman doesn't want them to land here. It's such an open joke that it is not at all a conspiracy theory at this point. You would have to say it's a conspiracy theory to say that he,
Starting point is 00:39:31 doesn't. That condescending prick hates Canada and Canadian markets. Remember how he was when Winnipeg moved up? Like, oh yeah, you guys can keep the team if you can sell like 30% of season tickets in the first six months. Like, what a douche. Give fucking Quebec a team already again. Let them have the no dicks. Time to switch to whiskey. Here you go. We're going to pull it up. It says provinces with the largest declines in beer consumption as of the end. of April, you'll notice Saskatchewan has picked itself up. Saskatchewan's the only one holding their own.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Even Alberta is down 0.3%. I know. Saskatchewan increased 1.2%. You're like, of course, the old Sasky boys. Yeah. Newfoundland down 12.5. Of course, once again, the tax on alcohol has gone up
Starting point is 00:40:27 again as of April 1st, right? Not as much. They didn't put it up as much as they could have. Right. Right. good old politicians. So anyway, yeah, this is, this is sales by volume. So this isn't even just dollar amounts where, where people are switching to cheaper brands or anything like that. There's just less booze being bought. So, um, I would say, uh, because, presumably, because, uh, everything's so fucking expensive right now.
Starting point is 00:41:04 No one can afford the taxes on alcoholics. well, I mean, yeah, maybe we should tax the alcoholics more. Red Ink Redford. Former Premier Alison Redford was named the board of directors of the Invest Alberta Corporation, a provincial crown corporation that promotes the province as an investment destination. Wonder how I get that job. I just feel like, you know. I have thoughts.
Starting point is 00:41:35 Hang on a minute. I'll get to them. Redford's term in the role is set to expire January 30th, 2027. It comes with a $10,000. annual retainer and 300 compensation for each meeting attended as well as provisions for travel and meal expenses. If you're wondering who Redford is, she resigned as Premier in March of 2014 following scandals involving the improper use of government aircraft, travel and staff expenses, and plans to construct the so-called Sky Palace atop the structure now named the QE2 building.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Yes. Before we get into this too much, Zane Southgate, Sask beer sales only went up recent on count a certain military man's retirement. That's fucking beauty right there. You're not wrong. You're not wrong there, yes. Okay. So Allison Redford was Premier a decade ago. And she had a very short-lived tenure as Premier
Starting point is 00:42:29 because as soon as she got in, she's like, well, I'm in charge now, so I'm going to buy whatever the fuck I want with your people's money. And what are you going to do? Elect a bunch of socialists. and we elected a bunch of socialists. That's basically what happened. It was the epitome of the fuck you.
Starting point is 00:42:48 We've been in charge for 40 years. We're going to do whatever the fuck we want. And yeah, I get the fact that our name's conservative, but the only thing we're conserving is our own pocketbooks and all you guys can just suck it. That was basically the messaging that came out from her when she was premier. It was an absolute disaster and she got ousted. fairly quickly. And I would say is reviled to this day in Alberta by everybody because she was the epitome of the cronyism and the lack of accountability that was representative of the
Starting point is 00:43:25 conservative party. And so now in an effort to dispel these lingering feelings of of cronyism, Daniel Smith has given her a cushy appointment. There is literally nobody. in the province that would have been a worse choice as for the looks of this than Allison Redford. She would have been better off, not a word of a lie,
Starting point is 00:43:54 she would have been better off given this job to Rachel Notley. Her giving this job to Rachel Notley would cost her fewer votes than her giving it to Allison Redford. Wouldn't that have been something? And we're appointing, we're going to appoint
Starting point is 00:44:12 in the position of, to the board of directors of invest Alberta corporation, Rachel Notley. Can you imagine heads popping off? Well, I mean, all she had to say was it was either her or Allison Redford. I would almost rather see Justin Trudeau have that job
Starting point is 00:44:28 than Allison Redford. Okay, that's how bad that bitch was. And now she got a cushy fucking gig again? We haven't forgotten. You know who'd be great in Invest in Alberta? Marty up north. He'd be fantastic. There's like there's four and a half million people that would be better at it.
Starting point is 00:44:47 You could get. Fair point. You could get some illiterate trucker or some illiterate welder or some illiterate yoga instructor or some illiterate teacher or anybody. Anybody would be better than Allison Redford at all. You could get a Ouija board and say that you've got Ralph Klein consulting you on this and it would be a better choice. and it would be a better choice. Tax Freedom Day.
Starting point is 00:45:22 If Canadians paid all their taxes up front, they would work the first 164 days of this year before bringing any money home for themselves and their family. Look at this. Look at that. Yes. All the days up until yesterday were you paying for Justin Trudeau's stupid bullshit.
Starting point is 00:45:43 and Allison Redford's new fucking appointment and Jody Gondex doing everything but fix that fucking pipe this is what you do, this is what you pay for. So all that time in January, February, and March where you were outside freezing your balls off almost to the point where you could compete in women's events.
Starting point is 00:46:07 That wasn't for you. That wasn't for your family. That was for that idiot bitch in Thompson, Manitoba so she could fly to fucking Quebec for a family vacation over Christmas. All of that stuff, all your sweat, your hard work. Every time you cut your knuckles open, turn in a wrench, every time that you burn yourself with welding spots, every time that you get knocked off of a horse, every time that you end up with a bunch of transmission fluid all over you because you're trying to fix your tractor. You name it. It's all just going to them.
Starting point is 00:46:47 And now the rest of the year you're working for yourself. And just think how far along we are in the year. That's an insane stat. It's an insane stat. Drew McKay, even twos would be better than Redford for fuck's sakes. That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me, Drew. Two's in that role would be fun. On behalf of the illiterate truckers, I accept your endorsement.
Starting point is 00:47:20 The focal point was that it was just, it was a half dozen different jobs where everybody was illiterate and they were all better than Redford. But yes, as somebody who also, I think I have a class one, but I can't read, so I'm not sure. I think we just got to get some grant writer on our, somebody on the list that's watching this as a grant writer. Just start writing grants applications. and like positions for the Tuesday mashup or for the mashup now and just see what we can get. Just see if we can get a million dollars.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Maybe we get 10 million twos. You never know. What if we just blew it all on something really stupid pointing out how silly it was? Yes. And then just went back to square one. Yes. We could do that.
Starting point is 00:48:01 I mean, I would like if we didn't do maybe all that, but it would show the ineptitude of the government and chances are they would give us more money. That's probably what would happen? Well, what if we just got a grant and then we like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:48:13 we got $180. $186,000 grant. So tune in for the $185,500 giveaway. We probably have. We probably break some records that day. The mashup effect. Sales of adult monthly transit passes for OC transport,
Starting point is 00:48:34 that's Ottawa, will remain well below pre-pandemic levels, but transit staff are hoping government workers heading back to the office more often will help. A staff report on Thursday's Transit Commission meeting showed sales of adult passes so far in 2024 are at just 32% of where they were at this time in 2019. All the other passes types combined are at 99% of pre-pandemic sales levels and they include discounted passes such as youth senior community access and equi pass. So everything but the adult pass is back to pre-pandemic levels. So we talked two weeks ago.
Starting point is 00:49:12 would say about how the Ottawa transport is losing shit tons of money and the government wants all their employees to start coming back into work. And we had said, well, if they were smart about it, one problem would solve the other problem. Oh, yeah, we did say that. And then two weeks later, CTV says, hey, you know what, maybe we could write an article about that. I was, for the listener, I was going to, why the heck are we talking about this? I don't, what do we do?
Starting point is 00:49:45 Why normally it's so blatantly obvious. I forgot we were talking about that. I actually forgot about it. Literally the exact thing we were talking about with the two- Sometimes I literally, when I hear Ottawa and government, I just kind of black out, you know? It's just like, I guess can't take it. Yeah, just like Trudeau's face.
Starting point is 00:50:01 Correct. Yeah. Romming against the machine. Three fiery flavors. That's a great headline. That could be a shirt. The three fiery flavors and we could have the rooster on it. Right?
Starting point is 00:50:14 Like, blows smoke out of its mouth? That'd be great. Three fiery flavors of the Samyang instant ramen line are being withdrawn. Bulldeck, three-time spicy and hot chicken, two-time spicy and hot chicken and hot chicken stew. Denmark's food agency issued the recall warning on Tuesday, urging consumers to abandon the product. But the maker, Sam Yang, says there's no problem with the quality of food. Quoted, we understand that the Danish food authority recalled the products not because of a problem in their food quality, but because they were too spicy.
Starting point is 00:50:44 I want to try some of that now. Yeah, actually, I'd been wanting to, that specific one that's in the picture right here, I saw some random video where the Babish, where he ranked like 25 different ramen packets. And this was one of the, I think the three best or four best that he picked out of all of them. This was one of them.
Starting point is 00:51:05 And so I'm like, well, that seems really good. But yeah, so to be clear, Denmark, not exactly known for having wonderful culinary stuff. I remember I'd spent like a month there straight. And by the time I got done, I'm just, I like, I just want some wonder bread and cheddar.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Because there's a different weird cheese and a different weird bread every day. But just lots of bland stuff like that. And then them to ban this, to be clear, it's because the spice content was too high. It wasn't for any safety concerns. there was no salmonella risk or you know Ebola or monkey pox or coronavirus or whatever else
Starting point is 00:51:48 I bet you I bet it's too spicy we can't let people eat it this is probably another fix for the COVID pandemic was the three times spicy you know you get some of that in your system it's basically ivermectin on steroids that's right yeah yeah what are you taking ivermectin you taking that horse paste no I'm taking the three-time spicy ramen man it's That's fantastic. Yeah. Just cleared me right up. My shelves are stocked.
Starting point is 00:52:16 I got a sore butthole, but I am healthy as a horse. I don't know. I got to try and find this stuff now. I want to maybe have some for lunch or something that I've definitely got to try it now, right? It's too spicy for Denmark. The sales of this stuff are going to go through the roof, man. You can't buy marketing like this. Update, carbon tax.
Starting point is 00:52:40 Data from the Environment and Climate Change Canada, the Trudeau government kept secrets for years, details of the hit to the Canadian economy. The data was only released Thursday after its existence was revealed by parliamentary budget officer. Yes, Giroux. Drew went on to say the Trudeau government had put a gag order on him, told him he couldn't share the information publicly.
Starting point is 00:53:00 The data released Thursday morning says that the carbon tax emissions would be 11% higher by 2030. It also showed that the carbon tax will be responsible for a multi-billion dollar hit to the Canadian economy. First off, they literally campaigned on this. They said that it's going to cost you money to pollute. Was there basically their tag on this? Was that making carbon dioxide is going to cost you money.
Starting point is 00:53:29 And then, well, how much? Well, it's going to cost $25 billion in reduced economic growth, plus what it's going to cost for all of it, which absolutely makes sense for anybody who understands deadweight losses and artificially increasing or decreasing the price of products. I've talked about this a bunch. This literally is what you would expect in an economic model. And they said it was going to happen.
Starting point is 00:53:56 But now they're backtracking because it's actually hitting people's wallets now. I mean, it sounds nice when it's some flowery thing that, oh, yeah, yeah, we're going to make people pay for polluting. Like, okay, but now we're, We're fucking broke. Oh, yeah. It's not, it's not that we're going to make it pay that much.
Starting point is 00:54:13 No, it's, you know, it's fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. Like, no,
Starting point is 00:54:17 no, no. You said it was going to cost people more money. We've actually got the math on how much it's going to cost. And now you're going to say that it just magically doesn't cost anybody anything. That's our government. That is our government in a nutshell. Yes. All right.
Starting point is 00:54:31 Yes. This hot chicken one is moderate. I would rank near Tabascoe versus Habanero and then Carolina Reaper. And then Carolina Reaper. okay I'm trying to picture that in my head I mean I get where they all are but yeah
Starting point is 00:54:48 show idea hot wing Wednesday should we just do an episode where we're eating like the hottest hottest things I'm trying to read headlines little uh point two um one of the little point twos a couple weeks ago
Starting point is 00:55:05 I was like here do you want this cracker I did this cracker with some sauce on it but I don't want it anymore and she'd poured an absolutely ungodly amount of, I've got this bottle of hot sauce that lasts me six months because I love spicy food, but this stuff's an absolute bastard. And she just poured this cracker and I wasn't looking too close,
Starting point is 00:55:26 popped it in. I'm like, she's like, hi, I pulled a prank on you and meanwhile, I'm freaking dying. She just thought it was going to be a little bit spicy. She didn't realize that she's gone.
Starting point is 00:55:39 I'm drowning over here and you're grabbing the water. Yep. Update. Capital gains. Well, there's a couple things here. One, I'm going to pull up the, just, I'm not going to play the video. It's six minutes. Everybody should probably go watch it.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Finance Minister, Christopher Freeland, is saved by her PR team after Vassi Capulose laid an unmerciful verbal beatdown on the Wef sock puppet. This is a tweet from wiretap media. For blatant lies, broken promises, over expenditures, misappropriated funds, and the new capital gains tax. it's it's you know that's absolutely what happens although to be totally fair it's not as though she was beating up on Freeland
Starting point is 00:56:21 she just she wouldn't let her off she just kept coming pulling it back well no no you're lying this is how it is or oh no no no people are saying that but here's how it is I get what you're saying here but this is the reality right it was this is exactly what the media should have been doing for the past decade and it's about fucking time they started 100% and then there and then there's this one
Starting point is 00:56:41 I'm still Yeah, sorry. Here it's Amad Hussein fills up one cup with cream. It says Fairness for every generation. And then the other one is Pierre doesn't care.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Pierre doesn't care. And then he takes the one that's fairness for every generation. But his fairness for every generation thing needs to die a horrible death. Because, well, it's not fairness for every generation. You can't possibly tell me it's fairness for every generation. when the generations who are going to be paying for this shit aren't going to be born for another 50 years, Sean. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:18 Minister of International Development. That's the thing, though. So he's pouring this milk into these two glasses, a full of coffee. He's pouring the milk in. And it's actually probably a pretty good demonstration of how Canadian taxes work because it's probably half and half. Or maybe he's just embracing the whole gay pride month and it's homo milk. Oh, man. Okay.
Starting point is 00:57:47 Okay. When Blacklocks loses, we all lose. This is very true. I'm just going to pull up here. Bingo, here's Holly Dohn. Password sharing will be law in Canada, September 1. What does the internals, well, basically, essentially what this talks about here. I'll just plan on Canada's research chair called the ruling a huge win for people who don't want to pay for content in the internet.
Starting point is 00:58:10 There are enormous implications for libraries. He wrote, the University of Toronto Library serves 97,000 people. students under the new rule password sharing mushrooms from 9 to 900 to 97,000 without payment or permission. What this is about, I believe, two, correct me if I'm wrong, is you buy, you know, a membership to Blacklocks, for And then I can take my user credentials, my username and my password and shared to the world. And there's no recourse on me. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:38 So you could, in theory, according to this new law that gets passed, which got put put in because Blacklocks was fighting this. because there would be one person in an entire government agency who would buy a subscription to their news service and then basically use that to figure out what the hell was going on in Ottawa. And then they would share it or when something that that department did got talked about in blacklocks, they would say, okay, well, here just log in and here's all the information. Here's how to log in so that you can look at this too.
Starting point is 00:59:11 And so they got caught doing this multiple times. and despite the fact that it's completely against the terms of service for black locks. And so the government basically just legalized it. They said, we don't really care what your terms of service are. We're just going to make it legal for us and whoever else to do this. So in theory, you could take a blacklock subscription login and password, and you could share it on here. And everybody who listens could log in and they would essentially have a free blacklock
Starting point is 00:59:44 subscription because that's what just got legalized. They talk about how media is dying and media needs support and media. No, they're not. It's not that they care about the media. It's that they care about it being their media and not the, I would say best people in Ottawa as far as news people. Are they the best? I think they're the best.
Starting point is 01:00:12 Am I missing somebody? No, they're the best. We talk about this lots, how a married couple is doing the work of all of media combined. Two people. Two people. They're phenomenal. I mean, there's more people legalized ripping them off. Yes, there's more people than Holly Donne and Tom Corsky at Blacklocks.
Starting point is 01:00:32 And then, of course, there's other news agencies out there that are wonderful too. But me and you talk about Blacklocks all the time because of what they do and what they break and how they do it. They just follow the money over and over and over and over again. Isn't it weird how that seems to work out? Yes, it does. If you can't follow the science, just follow the money. If you can't follow this, just follow the money. And the money never lies.
Starting point is 01:00:55 Unlike global or unlike weather, environment and climate change, Canada. The weather is going to be super scary. What do you want to put here? For anybody listening along at home, there's a man. map of Canada, and I would say three quarters of it is red. And it says one or two, for summer 2024, we expect above average temperatures throughout most of the country. These conditions are likely to result in other severe weather events. This is Environment Canada.
Starting point is 01:01:31 Okay. There it is. Yeah. So you've got probability below normal. And there's just a tiny little bit on the West Coast. and then I don't think there's I think there's a it's hard to tell exactly with the radiation
Starting point is 01:01:48 it looks like there's a tiny section that's probability of being near normal Yeah probability what does that even mean to Probability percentage above normal So if it is going to be I want you to think about this for a second folks If it's going to be point one of a degree Not one degree point one of a degree
Starting point is 01:02:09 Above methodology in it. Then it's a 100% it's going to be above normal. And you're like, I don't know. I don't know what Tew's weather has been like. But I tell you what. It's been rainy.
Starting point is 01:02:21 I'm wearing shorts today. I think this is the second time I've worn shorts so far this summer. And we're almost into July. Correct. Okay. So basically it's the top half of Saskatchewan and the whole rest of the country going east is all just red. Scary red.
Starting point is 01:02:40 The problem these people haven't really figured out yet is that I get the fact that scary red is the scariest color, but it's kind of getting overused. And you can't really switch it up at this point. Like you could say it's, you know, you could make Ottawa and fucking Quebec brown, but that's just more of a stylistic choice. Where do you go from scary red in all of these weather reports? How do you improve on it? I think they're going to go neon. Crimson. I think they're going to go neon.
Starting point is 01:03:07 That's going to be, they're going to change because they can't fix this. color template and they can't go with like pastels because they're too muted. I think the next thing you're going to see is that there's going to be a bunch of neon colors for the next series of these. Because how else can you explain an atmospheric river? May has her lazy eye on foreign interference. Quoted, having read the full unredacted National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliament report for myself, I can say I have no worries about anyone in the House
Starting point is 01:03:40 of Commons. there's no list of MPs who have shown disloyalty to Canada says Green Leader Elizabeth May. I feel so much better that she came out and said it. Yes, yes. The woman who openly admitted to lying to us about renewable energy for a decade when Planet of the Humans came out, she is now to be trusted completely on all of this stuff.
Starting point is 01:04:05 And then Jagmeet Singh read the same report and came up with the exact opposite conclusion. and so you're like okay two of the stupidest people in parliament came to absolutely opposite conclusions I just want to show speaking to Jagmeet I just want to show the end of the question where here I'll bring it up
Starting point is 01:04:24 and we'll play it here a quick because I just want to have to rewind it unless that's where you're planning on starting it from no that's where I'm going to start from okay wow screw it I'll feel here I'll show a bit more okay
Starting point is 01:04:36 so why are you continuing to prop up the government who you say isn't taking democracy seriously. Why do you continue to prop them up? So the question is what are we going to do about it? The question to be... Why do you continue to prop up the government when you say our democracy is at stake? And this government is not taking our democracy seriously. Why continue to back them up? We're not at all doing that. What we're saying is we're going to demand answers.
Starting point is 01:05:00 We're going to continue to push for solutions. Because we're in parliament right now, I was able to read these documents. Because we're in parliament now, we've been able to push for a letter to have the public inquiry also in include the conservative leadership race in a part of the public inquiry's work. We want to use the tools as parliamentarians as a parliamentarian myself to use the tools that we have that I have to advance democracy. I want to use the tools that I have to get to the bottom of this. The suggestion that an election is a solution to election interference is, I think, a fallacy. What we need to do is use the tools we have to get to the bottom of this. I want to continue to push for more solutions. I want to push for more transparency. I want to push to
Starting point is 01:05:40 Learn more so we can have better solutions. There you go. He's literally voted down multiple instances of attempts to investigate this. Yes. He has literally been the deciding vote in whether this stuff gets brought into the daylight or not. And I don't know who that reporter was. Quite fiery. But it was great.
Starting point is 01:06:05 It was fantastic. It was fantastic. That's exactly what they should have been facing for the last nine years. All of them. 100%. So anyway, yeah, this report is apparently pretty damning, and it also dams senators. I'm going to go on a limb and say Yuan Paul Wu is a Chinese spy. I think that that's probably a pretty safe bet at this point.
Starting point is 01:06:33 Packing heat. Men who are satisfied with their penises are more likely to own guns. The new study is being described as the first to formally test whether size matters in gun ownership. based on a national sample of American men, the researchers observed that men who are less dissatisfied with the size of their penises were more likely to personally own guns across outcomes, uh,
Starting point is 01:06:57 across outcomes including any gun ownership, military style of rifle ownership, and total number of guns owned. Yeah. So you're pretty happy with what you're packing. And I, I wonder if it's proportional. Like the more guns you own,
Starting point is 01:07:12 the more happy you are with it. possible you'd just be like oh yes I'm the happiest man alive when it comes to my weiner it's interesting that they didn't ask any of the wives or anything like that how satisfied
Starting point is 01:07:30 are you with your how satisfied are you with your husband's following items a penis B gun collection up in smoke this is
Starting point is 01:07:48 this is something. I've been, okay, here. I'm just going to pull this up. We're going to play. We don't need to have any sound on this. We're just going to play the up and smoke. Authorities in El Salvador set fire to three tons of cocaine worth an estimated $65 million, which they reported seizing in May. Oh, the CIA must have been so mad when this happened. There it goes. Yeah. So now, is anybody who lives downwind of that just going to be like high as fuck?
Starting point is 01:08:17 Possible. I don't know. Like, can you, I feel like if you're burning that much weed, it would probably happen. Does that happen with, with, with Coke?
Starting point is 01:08:28 Can you, can you smoke it? I'm not sure. I'm not an expert, but being like, El Salvador's really turned things around the past few years. But I feel like if I was in charge of a small Central American company or country,
Starting point is 01:08:43 and I found, or my, my people found 70 million dollars worth of cocaine. I'd be like, he... So the guy you're talking about is it naeeb Bukali? He got an interview by Tucker Carlson a couple weeks ago.
Starting point is 01:09:00 It is probably the best interview I've seen for sure this year. Like, I mean, it was fantastic. And he took El Salvador from the world's highest murder per capita rate to underneath lower than Canada. And they arrested 70,000. gang members. He's the guy that has the video where he brings all of his cabinet in. Yeah, we talked about that the one week where he brought the ball in and he said,
Starting point is 01:09:27 you're all getting investigated. And if any of your grease, he's going to be a problem. We talk about Malay an awful lot. But this guy, to me, just keeps coming back up on different world leaders that are doing things a lot different than what we're doing. And I sit there and admire it because I'm like,
Starting point is 01:09:42 this is something. I imagine if Randy Bissinal try to do the same shit with his other Randy stick in El Salvador. He would have been thrown on that fucking cocaine fire. Yes. Maybe we should send him over there. They could deal with them. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:00 Tell us like a diplomatic issue or something. Your punishment is presenting you to El Salvador. We think you're doing a great job, Randy. We want you to go talk to El Salvador about this. You get off thinking like, hey guys, how's it going? They'd be like right this way, signor. Well, before we hop into community news, I know we don't have a headline in the last. Happy news.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Well, before we get to happy news, I don't even know what the happy news is this week. I want to talk about Russia with ships in Cuba. Well, U.S. Navy tracks Russia warships 25 miles off the South Florida coast en route to Cuba. And Kremlin claims that the move is giving the U.S. a taste of its own medicine. So there you go. There's some things going on there, too, is that, you know, like isn't exactly being talked about a whole lot. I feel like this might be a missile crisis all over again. Yeah, well,
Starting point is 01:10:52 US, here's what the BBC reported. US officials have played down Wednesday's arrival of four Russian naval vessels in Cuba for military trolls. Like, plays it down. Like, it's not that big of a deal. They're literally anchored at Havana base from 90 miles from the U.S.
Starting point is 01:11:07 state of Florida. Well, I mean, how close is the Aleutian Islands to, well, uh, to Russia? You can basically see the tip of Russia from the tip of Alaska.
Starting point is 01:11:21 So, I mean, having Russian stuff in close proximity to U.S. stuff isn't new. It's just new in the Gulf of Mexico. I'm just saying the significance, you know, like in history of what went on with the Cuban missile crisis and they're back, right? They're sitting there for the world to see. And I think we should take note of that. Like, I think it's very news noteworthy of like, well, that can't be good. That, that isn't good. And especially with, I don't know, old senile guy Biden there.
Starting point is 01:11:54 And Justin Trudeau on this side, like, I mean, we are in, the West is in just tough sorts, beyond tough sorts with the leadership we got to deal with it. Okay. Joe Biden is going to have nothing to do with any sort of a response to this. even if he said, we need to nuke these guys and he pulls out his nuclear football, he's going to pull the string on it and then the arrow's going to spin around
Starting point is 01:12:18 and it's going to land on the cow that goes moo. Okay, he's been completely taken out of the game at this point. You cannot possibly tell me that he's got the launch codes. I hope. Happy news. What do you got for me? Happy news this week. All right.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Twin elephants. in Thailand known for more than just Bangkok. So 36-year-old Asian elephant named Chamchuri gave birth two twins. One of them was a lot smaller
Starting point is 01:12:50 than the other one you can kind of see from the picture. This one actually probably lays it out a bit better. The bigger one's a boy, the smaller one's a girl. And apparently this this never happens. They weren't even expecting it at all.
Starting point is 01:13:02 Elephants are so fat that you can't tell when they're having twins or that the second baby hasn't even come out yet. Man. That's super cute. Yeah. The little girl needs a stool to nurse until she gets bigger.
Starting point is 01:13:20 And there they are. It was a big kind of a panic pandemonium with, well, apparently they're not even used to having twins pop out. So the handlers were trying to make sure that neither of the kids got stepped on. got hurt a little bit in the process. But was so excited about the twins that they said they didn't even notice. So there's your happy news. Twin elephants.
Starting point is 01:13:48 Community, community events. We got a bunch going on in an injection of truth. Town Hall, June 17th. That's Monday coming up in Calgary. Tuesday is going to be there.

Starting point is 01:15:05 therapy for homosexuals, and protesting a rainbow crosswalk. I would say that out of everything he's known for, that's going to be pretty low on the list. I would say being arrested on a freeway during COVID lockdowns probably be the thing he's known for. John Carpe compared the rainbow flag to the swastika and denounced LGBTL, etc.
Starting point is 01:15:30 writes as authoritarianism, a guy named Zubi of Lager known for performing a stunt, mocking transgender people and his professed support of transphobe J.K. Rowling. The stunt mocking transgender people was setting the female deadlifting record.
