Starting point is 00:00:03 I've had it with memberberry country. Country music does this thing, where it goes through phases. Tim McGraw was pretty much the OG of that whole first line of the song is the last line of the song. It gradually became so overused that it was every damn song in the early 2000s. And for the past, I don't know, five, ten years, it's just been a whole lot of love songs of Brooks and Dunn and Joe Diffey and George. straight. We get it. You like country music. It's your fucking living. Of course you listen to it. You don't have to tell us about it all the damn time. Write your own shit. I get the kicks Brooks is one of the best guitar players in the world. But write a love letter to somebody else already.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Matchable 121. Coming in hat. You were speaking my language there. I like pretty much every country singer you just said there. I don't know what the hell you're talking about these days. I don't know if I'm just not listening to enough country music anymore, Tews. That's possible. It's possible. I don't think anybody's listening to as much country music as they ought to. Well, that might be true. Mashup 121.
Starting point is 00:01:25 Good Sir brought to us by Taylor King Real Estate. I'm better pop that up on screen there. People can see what I'm talking about. Taylor's been in the business six years under his belt and real estate. Before that, he was 17 years as a sales manager in the car business. Basically, a lifelong salesman. And I might add in customer service would be top priority in both of those professions. In his words, if you don't like real estate agents, that's understandable.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I think we've all been let down probably at some point in our life, A-2's. But you've probably never worked with a great one. I think he's talking about himself, and obviously two is can attest to that. One who's truly in your corner who really cares about acting in your best interest and we'll make sure you get the best possible deal. I think, you know, when I'm talking to somebody, the conversations that are easiest is someone who maybe thinks a little bit like us, you know, maybe tunes into the show. He might also be pro West, pro convoy, anti-trude.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Pro all of that stuff, except for Trudeau, obviously. The first time I ever talked to Taylor was I was going through the process of trying to buy this house. And the seller had done a little bit of bad faith in the process, I thought. And so my realtor, it was very good, but she was just like, well, you know, what do you want to do. And I'm like, I wasn't getting a real frank discussion. And so I reached out to him because I knew him from Twitter. And I was like, hey, can I give you a call and just run something by you? And I probably talked to him for about 45 minutes. He made no money on this. He wasn't involved at all. I just wanted to pick his brain and see what he thought. And right off, well, not right off
Starting point is 00:03:06 the bat, but as soon as he, you know, heard my my issue, he's like, okay, well, you're right. You're absolutely right. Now you just have to decide. do you want to be right or do you want to buy the house? Fair enough. And then at that point, I was like, yeah, this, this guy's my guy going forward. So that was, that was pretty cool. And that's, that's the kind of stuff. He was just telling us about how he had not quite the same thing,
Starting point is 00:03:35 but a similar conversation with some people who were moving here from out of province. And they, they thought that they wanted to buy a particular house. And he convinced them that one in a different area was going to be a lot more advantageous. It's one thing, anybody can be a yes man, but it's quite something else to have somebody who wants your best interests, whether you're, because they're selling themselves. And so he'll give you an honest answer regardless of the fact that you're paying him to represent you.
Starting point is 00:04:05 And I really like that. Yeah. I tossed in the show notes, his website and just, you know, name if anyone wants to go search it. You can find them at tkare.ca. He can also be found on Instagram at Taylor King Real Estate.
Starting point is 00:04:21 So there you go. Mashup 121 brought to you by Taylor King Real Estate. It is a Friday twos, which means it's happy Airborne Friday to our military friends, Jamie Sinclair and that crew of folks. John's. I was wondering what he was talking about in those show notes. Okay. Also, it wouldn't be another Friday if we didn't update people.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Coots 2 at 922 days and one of the new developments there this is from a global news report you know Crown prosecutors in Alberta have given notice they plan to appeal the not guilty verdicts given to the two men arrested in the 22 blockade of of Coots and the article went on to say earlier this month a left bridge jury found Olinick and Carbert not guilty of conspiracy to commit murder to police officers however the two men were convicted of mischief and possession of weapons for dangerous purpose while Olenik was found guilty of possessing a pipe bomb, which I think we've talked enough about on this show and a certain roundtable. And with this news coming out, I got two round tables coming up that's going to see a whole cast of characters from Gordon McGill
Starting point is 00:05:29 in one of them, another with Jason Levine and Viva Fry. And we're going to have a whole cast of characters coming on to kind of just pop the lid off this thing. Or, to because it's getting a little bit absurd at this point. Well, I think not only is it absurd, but stuff like this, to a very lesser extent, more so the people who are on the ground in Lethbridge,
Starting point is 00:05:55 are the ones breaking this days ahead of everybody else. This article from Global, I could have talked to their breaking of it, but I wanted to point out that this specific global article was probably about two or three days after it had been talked about by people like Jason Levine. Yeah, and, well, there's, you know, it's an interesting world to watch our media
Starting point is 00:06:23 that we'll get talking about here in Mashup 121. So I won't go too long on that. Make sure, folks, if you're watching this live, obviously we're live right now, you're on X, you're sitting there watching on X. Make sure to like and subscribe or retweet it, share it. You know, one of the things about us, independence is we don't have where we can force it down the cable TV.
Starting point is 00:06:46 We really rely on you folks sharing us. So we'd appreciate it. Retweet. Word about. You bet you. And if there's any community notes you guys want to talk about, just throw them in the comments right now and we'll scroll back up to the top at the end. We'll do a better job this week of scrolling back up to the...
Starting point is 00:07:04 Yes. If you've got any events coming up in your community, whatever it is, let us know. I know there's going, Mother, I put it in there and you guys didn't talk about it last week. This week, we're going to do a better job. We're going to hold twos to the fire. We're going to make sure we read them.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Oh, it's my job now. That, well, you're the one, okay. Oh, one more thing before we get started on headlines. I know, and twos is going, really? But this is cool, okay? There you go. This is Aaron Woodland. New shirt came in today for tomorrow's show.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Aaron, solid-looking shirt. of course, I'll toss that in the live stream. That looks absolutely wonderful. Oh, and one other thing, by the way, I got to give you shit. Gotta give me shit. Yeah. Silver Gold Bull. SGB. So you're always talking about them. I got a whole bunch of
Starting point is 00:07:55 shiny coins and stuff. Here's the thing, though, that you don't ever mention is that they give a specific discount to the listeners. So it's not just, hey, when you're calling, mention the show because they can, keep track of that things, but also mention the show because it's cheaper for you when you buy fucking stuff from them. I thought that was kind of implied.
Starting point is 00:08:16 But maybe I missed that part. Hey, folks, if you mention SNP when you're buying from Silver Gold Bowl, you're getting a discount. Oh, and if you pretend to be 222 minutes, you get a slightly better discount. And there, mashup shirt looking, look at that shirt. Come on, folks. Hey? Love that shirt. Oh, baby.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Aaron Woodland. looking sharp. I'll toss it in the comments here once we get rolling. Once Tews starts talking too long, I'll slide it into the comments of where you can, well, heck, you know what, screw it. We're going to take 10 seconds here. We're going to do it. 10 more seconds? Yeah, 10 more seconds. Yeah, because Tews has taken up so much goddamn time this morning. Here, there, everywhere. Tews just won't. There. Okay. It's into the live chat. So if people want to do it, they can. There, okay? Awesome. It's all done. Mashup 121. Let's start this thing off. Missing scissors cut deep.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Okay, scissors. 36 flights were canceled at Japan's airport, new airport, Cheetos Airport on Saturday after a pair of scissors went missing. Japanese media reported the retail outlet at the airport, which serves the regional city of Cheetos on Japan's northernmost island, required to store scissors in a locker. When staff needed to cut something, they went to get the scissors out and they were missing. So then, you know, what happens? Panamonium. 200 flights delayed, 36 canceled. They made everybody go through security again. Correct.
Starting point is 00:09:50 And happily the scissors were found. Yeah, right were basically in the same room where the locker was. Yeah. Yeah, I had them in my pocket the entire time. It kind of sounds like the liberal government running an airport myself. Yeah. But, okay, this might sound a little bit racist, but this is an airport in Japan,
Starting point is 00:10:10 and they're worried about the danger that a pair of scissors presents. I feel like everybody in Japan is some kind of martial arts expert from all the movies I've watched growing up. And so, I mean, you've got somebody that could just, everybody to oblivion. A pair of scissors is not going to make a farts difference in a tornado. Guess what the C-A-N. And CUPY stands for.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Wow, Sean. That's a little harsh. Do you kiss your brothers with that mouth? There. Here's the man of the hour. The Canadian Union of Public Employees, or Cupid, has lost confidence in the National Vice President, Fran Han,
Starting point is 00:10:59 and is demanding his resignation after he posted a video denounced as anti-Semitic. Digally manipulated video post on Han's Facebook page on August 11th picture, a Jewish athlete with the star of David Arm tattoo leaping off a diving board at the Paris Olympics and turning into a bomb
Starting point is 00:11:16 that explodes. Fred Han says he's going to defy the union and not step aside. That's basically And for some reason, for some reason they've got a picture of Rosie O'Donnell on here instead. But this guy, Fred Han, is just exactly what you'd imagine.
Starting point is 00:11:32 Does he get a nose ring too? He does too. Like I mean, this this guy is a cartoon character at epic proportion. Yeah. Like it's crazy. All these liberal people, you know, we had the Randy Bissinnell's business partner that was
Starting point is 00:11:48 another caricature of what an evil person would be. And this guy, you look at him. Like, just imagine you pass, walk by this guy on the street. You might glance at him and you would just assume that he was a bad person. Like, just look at him. He's just, ugh. And yet, so anyway, the union. have had enough. And he says
Starting point is 00:12:13 So they've been trying to find a way to get this guy out for a very long time. Right now. And he's like, fuck you. They just, they just reelected me. They're like, yeah, we were reelected you. But then you did this shit. So now you need to leave. Correct. And so it's, it's going to be a pissing contest.
Starting point is 00:12:30 I saw some guy who does talk radio in Toronto saying that the problem with this guy is that he he knows where all the bodies are buried as far as the union goes. And believe it or not, unions get up to some greasy he shit every once in a while. And so the question is, how do you get
Starting point is 00:12:45 them to leave without making him burn everything down behind him? And that could get a little bit interesting. I hope it just implodes. And on a completely unrelated matter, let's move to the next topic. Canadians get railed by strike.
Starting point is 00:13:01 The Canadian Union of Public employees, what am I looking at here? Folks, come on, Sean. Routers, CNN, strike here. Workers at Canadian National Railway will begin returning to work on Friday. The Teamsters Union said hours after the Canadian government moved to end unprecedented rail stoppages. I'm just going to pull up the tweet here. I think this, you know, fully, this is a parody on Jagmeat. I fully support CP and CNN rail workers' right to strike.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Collectively, they will cause one billion in economic damage per day. When unions do this, I support them. When truckers do this, I'll gaslight them and spit on their livelihoods. it's very well said. It hits the nail on the head. Jagmeet Singh loves to talk about corporate greed, but it's weird how like only the corporations are ever the ones that are evil. It's never the unions that are evil and wanting to scam people. It's never the union employees that just want unreasonable things.
Starting point is 00:14:00 And it sure is fuck never the politicians who will prop up a failing fucking government just so they can personally ride the train out long enough to say, secure a pension. Yeah, this is the... So here's community notes, and we're going to get more community notes later, but this is another Jagmeet Singh community note. Yeah, well, basically, he, Jagmeet Singh tweeted out, Justin Trudeau told Canadians things would get better. Instead, they've gotten worse. On and on and on and on it goes, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:32 and then the community note says, important context, Justin Trudeau's government is in government because of confidence and supply agreement with Jagmead Singh, right? So, I mean, By entering into this agreement, Singh is effectively propping up the government he's campaigning about above. It was just chef's kiss. Yes, 100%. No matter, anytime he comes out and criticizes
Starting point is 00:14:53 anything that's going on in our country, he can put an end to it. Everything Trudeau's doing is so horrible. I wish we could stop it. If only there was somebody who had the power to stop what this man's doing. Motherfucker, it's you. The other community
Starting point is 00:15:08 notes. Well, I'm going to pull up mine. I know Tews has got the better version of this, but essentially it was a story about Manitoba, and it shows, you know, here's the tweet, okay? It says, horrible and tragic heartbreaking, all at the hands of a responsible, fully licensed gun owner until he wasn't.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Remember this story the next time the conservatives and the gun lobby say, bring it home. Here's the deal with this. So this is ex-Toronto MP for the Liberals, Adam Vaughn, wholly unremarkable person but it specifically just very clearly states in the article that he had previously had his pal taken away
Starting point is 00:15:50 because of domestic abuse that he was inflicting on his wife and they had seized all his guns so when he did this he was not a law-abiding responsible firearms owner it was illegal for him to have firearms in Canada and yet they just they'll put that article up write their blurb and hope you don't actually read into it. Yeah, and just in the story itself, a pretty sad story. He showed up to the house in the middle of the night.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Woman ran into the bushes to hide, and then he went over to the next house, which was her parents, killed both of her parents and her brother, like pretty horrific stuff. And, of course, you know, they make it a gun issue when, I mean, there's a whole hell of a lot more going on in that article than pointing out and then getting it wrong
Starting point is 00:16:40 as two has pointed out. Yes. Lord of the Rental. A 400-acre ranch in BC's Okinawagana has hit the market for $2.5 million and one of the property selling features is a Hobbit Hole-inspired house that has been named one of Canada's most
Starting point is 00:17:00 wish-listed Airbnbs. Go sleep in Frodo's home. Bilbo's home. Although they can't say that because, you know. Yeah. Yeah, they, it's funny. They got issues from Warner Brothers about, uh, not use right infringement, basically.
Starting point is 00:17:17 But here's the thing. I'm, I'm pretty sure that the Lord of the Rings novels at by this point are, um, like the copyrights, uh, anytime you copyright something, you only get a certain amount of time before it lapses unless you're Disney and you buy out the feds. And so it's, it goes into, what do you call it free use or, um, public space or whatever just that anybody can reproduce it or whatever it's like there's no copyright on Shakespeare but anyway here's what it looks like on the outside here's what it looks like on the inside it's one of the most sought after Airbnbs in this entire goddamn country
Starting point is 00:17:52 and it rents out for $600 a night and they're putting it up for sale because the laws around rentals and Airbnb's in BC are getting so fucking difficult that they're like screw it just buy it. If you want it, buy it. We're tired of dealing with it. It'd be cool to go stand it for a night. I don't want to pay 600 bucks. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I like the Lord of the Rings, but I don't like it that much. Exactly. Green slash fund update. Don't know why I read it that way. A person by the appointed by the Trudeau government was found guilty of ethics crimes for rewarding her
Starting point is 00:18:33 company, the government contracts, of which she was responsible. And that was $10 million she got. The penalty, I'm going to let Vaughn, I'm going to let Twos play the video, so Von Finkenstein can say and you can sit wherever. I want you just all to sit down for a second. Listen for this. I don't want you to hurt yourself.
Starting point is 00:18:51 I don't want you to swerve in traffic. I don't want you to, oops, in the kitchen. Just everybody brace yourself. Okay, here we go. Ethics Commission. The Rashehran report. We've heard from my calling, Mr. Perkins, that she somehow benefited from the decision.
Starting point is 00:19:07 decision-making that she either made or abstained on voting but not refusing herself upwards to $10 million. You found her guilty of breaching two aspects of the act. I want to know, and I'm sure Canadians watching this, want to know, what is the penalty for her? Penalty for her is as the act provides right now basically exposure. She's sorry? Exposure. Exposure. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:41 You know, if you want to have you had a conflict of interest. We expose it. If you get it certified, it does damage to your reputation. That's how the act works. The act does not have any penalties except for minor penalties on the reporting thing. So just to be clear here, okay? This is why we have no teeth on anybody doing stupid things in the government. You go, Ethics Commissioner finally in.
Starting point is 00:20:11 He's finally doing some thing. Finkelstein is at the hammer here. He's going to be all over it. He finds out, yep, you're guilty. 10 million blacks. Guilty as fuck. And the, for $10 million. The crime for that?
Starting point is 00:20:23 What's the punishment? A little bit of exposure. Yeah. This is exactly the kind of law you would have. expect politicians to pass. Right. Okay. We get into power.
Starting point is 00:20:34 All right. Well, we want to use it to benefit ourselves. But we need to make sure that we're being held accountable to the taxpayers because we care about that so much. So, but we need to decide what the penalty for, for being corrupt is going to be. Well, fuck. What if we just said it was like the worst thing possible for us to be exposed? Like no, no financial penalties, no remuneration, no paying back, no jail time.
Starting point is 00:21:00 No, nothing. The penalty is it's not even getting fired. It's going to be a public announcement. And they're like, imagine trying to sell that when you're passing it. You just be like, trust us guys. This is the worst thing you could ever do to us. Really going to hurt your reputation. If you guys are watching and you don't like this show, honestly,
Starting point is 00:21:20 the worst thing you could possibly do to Sean and I is to send us bacon. Please don't do that for the love of God. If you're hating the show, do not give us any salted pork products whatsoever. We don't love them. We don't want them. I can't imagine anything more horrible. You know, I just, going back to that video for a second. On this show, 121 episodes of the most profound things to happen, that video, I'm like, this is insane.
Starting point is 00:21:55 This is absolutely insane. Okay, Canadian military asked to help with youth in Asia. Oh, that's clever. That's clever. Sheila Gunn-Reed and Rebel News have obtained documents showing how veteran affairs can attempted to hide and paper trail of evidence relating to caseworkers suggesting alien veterans choose to access the medical assistance and dying program. Listen, this was a long tweet. I just pulled one excerpt out of it. On page 679, Sheila wrote,
Starting point is 00:22:32 The Veterans Affairs Media Team only says to provide verbal updates writing recommendations quoted, recommendations to keep the updates verbally to a limited distribution, but will follow DMO OSD's preferred format and frequency. She then wrote, they didn't want things in writing because writing amounts to a paper trail,
Starting point is 00:22:49 which I can access, which she's bang on it. Absolutely. The fact that they're that calculated about it, tells you, I mean, everything you need to know, doesn't it? That's exactly it. So originally this story was it was just one lone wolf in one department who was mistakenly doing this and they weren't supposed to.
Starting point is 00:23:10 And then it comes out, oh wait, it's so prolific that she gets, what was it, 1,121 pages or some fucking thing like that, like just an astounding amount of information. And in it, they specifically, after the news story, broke, moved to verbal conversations about this so that there was no access to information. That was a part I missed, right? After the stories break and they go to verbal and they're trying to make it so there's nothing to find. It's a pretty... If there's nothing to find, then you don't have to go to verbal. Oh, man. Yeah. Global signs off. Video shared on Instagram show former anchors sharing emotional
Starting point is 00:23:55 goodbyes as they sign off for the last time. The posts have received a lot of reaction from followers of the Clona base station as viewers lamented yet another painful setback to local news coverage. Of course, that's, this version is Clonas. I'm not from Clona. Maybe they were doing a great job. I have no idea, folks.
Starting point is 00:24:11 I just know that as a whole, our mainstream media is failing us and they had a great opportunity to suck us all back in in COVID, and they didn't. And now they're showing more cards. They did the exact opposite. Correct. And now they're doing the exact same thing with climate change and a whole bunch of other things
Starting point is 00:24:29 where they parrot this narrative. They don't. And what's the repercussion? I watched the videos of them like, you know, getting emotional. I'm like, I'm sorry you're losing your job. Do it better. And maybe you won't have a problem there. Here's the thing of it.
Starting point is 00:24:42 This is the crux of it. And you're absolutely right. There are so many people in this country who lost their jobs as a result of their shitty news coverage of COVID. and now they're losing their jobs as a result of their shitty news coverage of COVID. No sympathy for them. Fuck all the way off. That's it.
Starting point is 00:25:08 I've got no love loss for you guys. You sold your soul for a few short years of government bailouts and even that wasn't enough and you did nothing to try and repair your reputation afterwards. Get fucked and don't let the door hit you on the way out. I get that that's a strong take. I don't know. I'm not apologizing for it. But you remember who is the lady, the women's panel thing where everybody blew up?
Starting point is 00:25:34 We talked about it like two weeks ago. Remember then she had the long apology or the long letter calling all the conservatives, the women's panel for whatever. You know, it's like a story that. I'm drawing a blank. We're the victims. Anyways. Oh, oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:25:50 She wrote out this long thing. And the thing was is I'm like, although I agree with someone what you're saying. You just don't understand you created this environment. You created it. You're complicit in it. And when I go back to global news, when I go back to CBC, when I go back to all these things, folks, it's a strong take, sure.
Starting point is 00:26:08 But we lived it where they literally would not give us the time of day. For two bloody years, they wouldn't open up anything. They were as complicit as anyone. And worse, they just fermented it more and more and more. And now they're seeing the repercussions of that. So screw off. I agree with twos. Don't I don't say that much. Let the door hit you on. Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out and be done with this. It's time. We need to move on. We need to get balanced news coverage.
Starting point is 00:26:35 If there is such a thing, we need to talk about things where you get to see both sides. For the love of God, it needs to happen. And a few tears are not going to break me on this either, twos. Well done. Pro-Palestine extremists want to put the sin back in synagogue. Dozens, I assume this was just recent, dozens of Jewish organizations, synagogues, and hospitals in Canada, woke up Wednesday morning to a mass email, containing bomb threats, prompting police in multiple cities
Starting point is 00:27:06 and the RCMP to open investigations. More than 100 Jewish institutions received an identical email. If I am Eastern threatening explosions, including at its offices in Toronto and Montreal. all. So, yeah. All right. So they lost, the liberals lost this big election.
Starting point is 00:27:28 So obviously, yes. Don't blow up anything. It doesn't matter what it is. And it's a little bit fucked to just be like, oh, yeah, that's, that's something that you get behind. Like, just right off the bat. But then the other thing I want to point out is that after the liberals
Starting point is 00:27:48 lost that by-election, in downtown Toronto, which has a huge Jewish population. Now they're pandering. Okay? And so Christia Freeland, she says, threats to places of worship
Starting point is 00:28:01 and to the Jewish community in Canada are reprehensible. We stand firm against anti-Semitism. Every Canadian deserves to feel safe. Now, I just want to harken back a couple years ago to something like this. Update, a map of the 100 churches that have been vandalized or
Starting point is 00:28:19 burned since the residential schools announcement. And this was in February, 2024 that this article came out. Now, if you go to Christian Freeland's timeline and you search for the word church, there's talking about her Orthodox church, Ukrainian Orthodox, oh, here's me at church, here's some stuff nice about church, church, church, church. The threat of doing something like what happened to a hundred churches to a synagogue is enough to get her speaking about it because she stands to lose votes.
Starting point is 00:28:52 But when it literally happens to 100 churches across the country, she's not even mentioned it once. Now, here's the thing. I don't care what special interest group you're in or if you think it's important or not. The big takeaway from this is that they don't give a shit about you or your group. They give a shit about the votes they're trying to get from them.
Starting point is 00:29:14 And I just wanted to pull up this map because I went through that article, above from True North and it was all these are all the churches that have been either burned down or spray painted or etc etc they've had physically something altered on them in retaliation for the residential school uh news cycle whatever you want to call it right that that that storyline and and there they all are that actually shocked me a bit it's in every single province and uh territory uh there's been at least one and so when twos brings up the free thing, you make a very good point that there, nowhere in her timeline does it show her going,
Starting point is 00:29:55 like, listen, there's some things going on here. And two's, I think you're banging on. I can't believe, am I agreeing with two is here two in a row? Oh, all right. Well, let's try and end the streak. Oh, my goodness. What's going on here, folks? She knows no Christians are voting for her. The libs hate us. well yeah I guess I think so cash cow payroll problems here's from the regina leader post Saskatchewan NDP leader
Starting point is 00:30:25 Carla Beck and healthcare critic Vicki Moet held a media conference Wednesday near the Jim Patterson Children's Hospital to highlight issues with the administration and formative management system payment processing system quoted we've already knew that nurses autism intervention
Starting point is 00:30:43 interventionalists and other healthcare workers in the province are not being paid on time. Beck said the payment issues cause the aim system are creating another hurdle in dealing with the current staffing challenges in the province's health care system. Quoted stuff like this are the reasons why we have some of the worst retention rates for health care workers in the entire country. And I might throw in one more thing. Healthcare workers aren't getting paid and the cost of this train wreck program has tripled from 86 million to at least $240 million.
Starting point is 00:31:12 $10. 2's. It's the Phoenix payroll system at the federal level all over again. One of the things, one of the limited, very limited, a liberal did this and it was good, was that before Harper took over, the guy before him, they figured out that they had the provinces managing, taking care of ensuring that the waterways are clear and covering all that. And then the federal government was doing the same thing. So they had two regulatory bodies at two different levels with the exact same mandate.
Starting point is 00:31:47 And so they decided, okay, well, the federal, we don't need to be here because the provincial people are already doing it. So we're just going to close that department. And then Harper gets held because it actually finished under his purview, which is fucked up because first of all, A, it was a good thing. And B, it wasn't even his thing. So everybody gets it exactly backwards. But this, why the hell? hell is the Saskatchewan government paying a quarter billion dollars to fix their fucking payroll system.
Starting point is 00:32:18 And then the federal government with a different payroll system is spending billions of dollars. Why don't they just figure out one that everybody can use? And everybody, I don't know, chips in a few of our fucking dollars rather than everybody having their own system that goes several times over fucking budget and just balloons and cost. It's absolutely insane. And the other thing is that the SaaS party is being a bunch of idiots here. You know that whenever you release a memo in the healthcare world, it's going to a shit ton of NDP people and they're going to send it on to actual NDP people.
Starting point is 00:32:54 So just cut out the middleman. So instead of being like, oh, it's a leaked memo, just be like, hey, we're putting out a memo in health care and we're sending it out to all the people in health care and we're going to send it out to the media as well. And then that way it's not, ooh, gotcha. It's, hey, look, we know this is going to get to you eventually. but here's slightly better optics on it. God.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Am I the only person here who fucking thinks through anything? Michelle Krieger says the payroll issue at SHA is abhorrent. Yeah, I imagine it is. I've never worked for them. I've got some issues with them. So not a lot of sympathy. BC election update. The BC United is attacking conservative parties of BC.
Starting point is 00:33:39 This is a tweet. I can certainly bring it up here. One of not bring it up. There you can see it. It says, New Revelations show John Rustad's candidate for Prince George McKenzie. Not only believes 5G is a weapon and the cause of COVID-19 pandemic, but also believes that the credit cards are assigned.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Antichrist is coming. Honestly, Tews, I'm intrigued. I'm like, dang. I want to hear what this lady has to say. Her name is Rachel Weber. I think I pulled up a picture of her, too. Why not? There you go.
Starting point is 00:34:07 There you go. Prince George. Awesome hair. there you go Rachel Weber I'm like this lady you know
Starting point is 00:34:13 I bet she's interesting around the the old supper table well I mean how many times have the conspiracy theorists been proven
Starting point is 00:34:22 right I don't think either one of those is true but the conspiracy theorists are pretty sterling track record
Starting point is 00:34:29 and here's the thing this is a tweet from the BC United Party right this is the liberal party rebranding that tried to play
Starting point is 00:34:38 them off as being conservatives and now they're looking to get shut out of the election entirely and they're trying to steal back support from the BC Conservative Party. My takeaway from this is pretty simple. If you've got somebody, let's just assume that she is absolutely bat shit crazy. You're going to lose all your fucking seats to a party full of bad shit crazy lunatics that don't have any grounding in reality and you're openly speaking about it instead of trying
Starting point is 00:35:07 to fix the direction your fucking party's going in? But they think... See the forest for the trees. Yeah. The tweet talks about. Yeah. Okay, so here's a comment from David. Morning, a bit of good news here in BC for the first time.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Polling shows of BC conservatives are ahead of the NDP, and they continue to rise. The NDP continue to decline. The United, it's like they can't figure out that, you know, like, oh, those, sure, are some of the conspiracy theories going to be too far to? Maybe. Maybe. But, but, but.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Start proving some of them wrong. That's right. And so they're attacking them for all these, they got all these conspiracy theorists that are running. Well, they're pulling like a mofo. And the reason is, because we've been right way too bloody, too many times. I was waiting for a co-vindication right after this, and Tuesday didn't give it to me. I should have.
Starting point is 00:35:59 I should have. But, I mean, here's the thing, is that, you know, this whole 5G thing, I think it's probably, I can't see there be in any reality. to it, I haven't seen anything compelling in that argument. But at the same time, Elizabeth May has said on the record that she is terrified of Wi-Fi. Why does
Starting point is 00:36:17 nobody in BC go after her? That's where her seat is. Would that be fun? You know, once again, the 5G, I haven't looked into it enough. And so I'm sure because of us saying that, we're going to go a whole bunch of comments, a bunch of texts on and on and
Starting point is 00:36:33 on. Listen, I'll talk about it. I'll bring somebody on the podcast, I got no problem talking about it. It's something that, you know, we're going to get into fluoride here soon enough. Spoiler alert. Spoiler alert. So I tell you, I got a lot of time
Starting point is 00:36:49 for the conspiracy theorist. I just had Dave Cullen on and he talks about it, you're not a conspiracy theorist? Why not? Right? Like, I mean, at some point, you've got to realize there's a lot of things that are coming up that were, that can't be true, and it's true. The lighter side of
Starting point is 00:37:05 COVID. Having a severe case of COVID. This one, this made me laugh a lot. I did not finish this article. Okay. Having a severe case of COVID-19 appears to be linked with increased risk of subsequent mental illness, including depression and anxiety disorders, and a new study finds an association
Starting point is 00:37:21 as strongest among people who were not vaccinated against the disease. Are these people for real? This is for real. This is a study, and basically, oh, and it's all men who are far more likely. Now, here's where it gets interesting. Do you
Starting point is 00:37:37 remember, you know, the official doctrine of the Church of COVID. How many side effects are there? It's safe and effective. It's safe and effective. How many side effects are there? Are you asking me how many side effects? According to the Church of COVID, how many side effects are there? None.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Absolutely none. There's not. No side effects whatsoever. The researchers, no, this one. The incidents of depression in the four weeks after a COVID, COVID-19 diagnosis was 1.93 times higher in people who had COVID-19 before vaccinations were available, 1.79 times higher among the unvaccinated group, and 1.16 times higher among the vaccinated group the researchers found. In other words, an unintended side effect of this vaccine
Starting point is 00:38:30 with absolutely no side effects is that it decreases incidence of depression. You can't even spit it out. I'm like, you know why we have no sympathy for news agencies falling apart and having to let go people? It's because it's junk like this. They're literally saying in this that there are unintended side effects of the vaccine. Of no side effects. Of the fact there's, it's a bit, oh, man. I just, you know, this is why I started reading it.
Starting point is 00:39:00 I started laughing out loud. I just went, Tews is going to have something to do with this because I can't, I can't. I just can't. Okay. Unbuzz me here for a minute because it gets better. It gets better. All right. So this guy, Golden Pup on Twitter, fucking beauty.
Starting point is 00:39:15 He did this big, huge bracket because he wanted to know who was the worst, worst COVID person in Canada. And so you've got Ryan Imgrund against Joe ViPond. And you've got, you know, Francois LeGall against Kieran Moore, Doug Ford with Vera Itches, Trudeau against Bonnie Henry. Teresa Tam was in there. On the other side, you've got She Who Will Not Be Named, David Feisman, Dean Blundell. She came close to the final four. She came close. It's the only thing she's ever really accomplished.
Starting point is 00:39:52 And so anyway, he did this online poll bracket. It went all the way back and forth, talked about it for about a week. It was a lot of fun. It was really interesting to see how it went. And then when it was all said and done, Canada's worst COVIDian. There you go. This fucking guy.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yeah. Believe it or not. Yeah. And so it was, it was just a really fun, interesting thing I saw on Twitter. I will say this before I hit the buzzer again, is that that was a brilliant job, right? Absolutely. I don't know. It's a master class.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Like I, the bracket, there's some names in there that I don't know about you two's. I hadn't heard a few of them. I'm like, who the hell is that even? But I was happy to see, like, a great job on pulling together. there's something that we could all have a little chuckle at. And, I mean, fitting that Trudeau is the guy. Yeah, you got to laugh at him. Would you've had, would you've, I already exit out of the bloody bracket.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Would you've had the, uh, him versus, uh, Fisman in the final? I would have had, right? When you pulled it, when you pull this back up, uh, I think Amir Adoran would have done better if he hadn't blocked everybody right off the bat. But I feel like, uh, Kaplan Murth would have definitely. gone to the to the finals to the people she's probably you know
Starting point is 00:41:12 I'd be curious like who you would have had is you know like was it Trudeau for you or was there somebody else because you know you got listeners across across the country who would have been your you know you're the worst of the COVIDian era and you know I was you know like
Starting point is 00:41:28 to me I almost would uh I know like it's a beautiful bracket but I thought to, you know, like waiting them, you know, like drawing it out for an extra week where you could have, instead of putting them in. You know, had the tension building up and you have people going back and forth. Basically have like sportscasters talking about it.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Because Trudeau is a heavyweight, right? Yeah. He should have been ranked number one from the get-go of all. But he went up against Teresa Tam in round two. Right. And Tam who told everybody to have sex with glory holes. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:42:02 So I'm like, Teresa Tam should have been ranked number two, which means they don't She should have made Final Four, right? Like those two morons. He didn't group it so that I know. This is me playing Monday morning and doctors and social media influencers. It's funny that he put, she will not be named under media
Starting point is 00:42:23 and not social media influencer. But anyway, we're done talking about her. I agree. All right. CBC sucks out of the week. In her testimony, former CBC reporter, Mariana Cloak admitted we betrayed the public, we broke their trust I'd witnessed the collapse of journalists
Starting point is 00:42:43 journalism, we were in fact pushing propaganda. That was in her... I want to show this video. Yeah, National Citizens Inquiry testimony. This is two and a half minutes. I'm probably going to play the whole thing. Yeah, that's fine. That's fun. I think it's worth listening to. We betrayed the public. We broke their trust.
Starting point is 00:42:59 And we had been riding on a reputation of excellence for years. And now we were quickly shutting down one side of the debate. And How were we doing that? We branded the doctors and the experts the CBC chose that we used in our stories. We branded them as competent and trustworthy. And those who questioned and challenged the narrative were portrayed as dangerous and spreading disinformation.
Starting point is 00:43:25 And that was regardless of what their specialty was, what their background was, and what their experience was. And I just also want to sort of give you a window into how this affected me personally. As a veteran journalist, I had solid contacts in the community. I had people calling me with stories. So I was seeing and I was hearing and I was absorbing all their stories of suffering and pain and they were sharing them with me and these stories weren't being told. Some of those were from the vaccine injured. some were from people who had lost their job because of their vaccination status,
Starting point is 00:44:05 those whose families have been blown apart and they'd been ostracized, university students who were depressed over repeated lockdowns and mandates, and parents who were calling me that were agonizing on whether they should vaccinate their child or not. So all these stories were sitting inside of me. They were left with me, and I felt the crushing burden, and the weight of their truth not being given a voice. And it affected my well-being because these people trusted me and I felt I had failed them and I had let them down.
Starting point is 00:44:39 It was like I had failed these people as a journalist to give voice to their truth. Yeah, that's, uh, well, that's, that's the CBC. Yeah. Well, and once again, I really- That's COVID-O communication right there. Yeah, I appreciate her testimony immensely, right? It gives you a very good insight. And we've heard it from other journalists, specifically the CBC,
Starting point is 00:45:03 coming out and talking about that. You'd hope it would be a landslide just like thousands of them. That isn't quite the case. But like really powerful testimony exposing how bad it was. Honestly, like how bad it was. We all saw it and it just confirms what we were seeing. Yeah. But I mean, once they get on a track, they stay on that track.
Starting point is 00:45:28 track. So, for example, this is from the CBC. Sask moving forward with $1.15 billion. Did you just spit? Yeah, yeah, I did the Woolerton. CBC? I did the Woolerton. CBC? Maybe that's what is that new? But we might have to do that from now.
Starting point is 00:45:49 I kind of like that. I got to like that. All right. Okay. Carry on. CBC. Sats moving forward with one point one $1.15 billion, Lake Deefon Baker, irrigation project despite incomplete feasibility study. And there's a lot of reasons why this should be questioned because it's hitting a very small
Starting point is 00:46:08 number of farms and everybody in the country or everybody in the province is paying for it. But it's funny that they talk about incomplete feasibility studies. The last feasibility study update on the Green Line in Calgary was done in 2021. Do you think maybe things have changed a bit since 2021, Sean? Oh, possibly. I mean, it's only three years ago. And then here. All right.
Starting point is 00:46:33 So there's two points I want to point out. This is for the cost projection at 2021, which is a fraction of what it is now. Calgary Transit targets a cost recovery ratio of between 0.40 and 0.45, meaning it aims to recover approximately 40 to 45% of its operating cost through the fare box. It plans on only making $2 out of every five it spent. back on this expansion in 2021. Okay. And then here, 12,000 jobs will be generated based on direct investment in the program, jobs related to construction and operation of the line.
Starting point is 00:47:09 It's going to create 12,000 short-term jobs, it says. Here's the thing. It's not creating jobs. Those are just as far as this, as far as the benefit goes, that's not a benefit. That's an added cost. It's what it costs to build it. it's like saying, oh, well, you know what, we've got to pay for something to get built, but we've got to pay people to do that.
Starting point is 00:47:31 So obviously it's a good thing. You could literally use that justification for any fucking infrastructure project ever, and it would be equally valid. So it's no distinct benefit on one project over another. It's a completely moot point. And CBC never does anything about this with the green feasibility studies. It's just when it's something for a farm. Can we bring up the Saskatchewan part of this?
Starting point is 00:47:58 I agree with you on the whole summary of CBC, but this $1.1 billion going towards an irrigation project. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 1.15 billion dollar irrigation. It makes me want to, I'm like, man, that's a lot of money for what seems like a small area of land. I mean, obviously, it's, and so you go, why would they do that?
Starting point is 00:48:23 And I assume, I assume, but then again, I'm assuming probably too much, that there's a logical explanation for that, or is there more to the story too's that I'm not seeing? Like, when I read further down, it says high-level analysis estimated it will return 20 billion in tax revenue over the 50-year lifespan of it. Okay, so it's a project they're going to put a billion in, they're going to get 20 billion out. How are they going to do that? Over 50 years. Well, because the 90,000 acres, it's going to irrigate. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Is going to generate that much more in yield, which... Well, that's part of it. The other part of it is it says that construction of two, it's relying on the assumption of two potash mines being built in the area, which would contribute 14 of the $20 billion in new tax revenue. So that's, I'm like, okay, so are those being built? Is that actually happening? Is it like, it's completely unrelated? Well, it just, the entire story, I'm like, your framework of the CBC I agree with. The story on Saskatchewan, what the original government is doing.
Starting point is 00:49:24 There's a lot of good meat in this story. worry. There's a lot of shit to point out where this doesn't add up and it doesn't make sense and it shouldn't be happening. But them being like, oh yeah, feasibility study is why we're not for this. Bullshit. You don't care about feasibility studies
Starting point is 00:49:40 because you don't even care if they're well done. Do you know how many sources are cited in that 2021 feasibility study? Fucking zero. Let's move on from the CBC for now. The NDP are not a serious party. Dude, bring up the video. I'm going to have
Starting point is 00:50:01 way too much fun with that. Okay, we got two videos here, and then we've got, and then we've got something that I'm not going to show the video, I'm just going to talk about. Take a pause. Listen, if you're homophobic,
Starting point is 00:50:16 you know, you're homophobic, very inappropriate. You're driving away, you're driving away and causing an accident. I'm right here. You can have a conversation if you like. So, whoever that was,
Starting point is 00:50:30 sounded like it was pretty far east. Not the Middle East, but the Far East. The only thing would better is he would have been walked by. You're a rooster slurper. If he would have said that one, that would have been fantastic. If anybody ever gets a chance to say that, you absolutely have to. He drives by him and say you're sucking on the prime minister's cock, right? That's what he says when they burn it out.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Okay. And then here's the other one. You got to watch the video. For those of you listening, he's holding up a bag of apples. Apples and a thing of baby formula. He's not one bag of potatoes. a sack of potatoes, one bag of potatoes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:09 So how do you like them apples? Now here's the other thing. Like not only is he stupid and silly, but here's this video. I'm not going to show it. But the tweet is Jagmeet Singh says his solution to the housing crisis is the ban evictions, deny landlords mortgage insurance, and use crown land to provide homes below market value. Now, if you're going to be a landlord and you want to purchase a rental income property, the minimum amount you have to put down is 20%.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Now, the CMHC fees and insurance apply to down payments of less than 20%. So by default, if it's a rental property, you're putting more down than the CMHC will throw insurance on. So there are two completely disparate areas. There's no overlap between them. Below 20%? CMHC insurance. Above 20% rental properties. This guy is doing a press conference
Starting point is 00:52:10 where he's talking about something. He does not fucking understand in the least. And he does it all the goddamn time. The NDP is not a serious party. Gay pride cometh before a fall. The Liberal Party of Canada. The city of Ottawa are just some of the organizations to back out of this weekend's Capital Pride Parade.
Starting point is 00:52:36 The Liberals are backing out of a Pride parade in Ottawa. Correct. You heard that correct. And it will be the first time in more than 25 years for the city of Ottawa and its employees that they will not participate in it. And why? It's a wave of backlash after Capital Pride issued a statement expressing solidarity with Palestinians and accused the Israel government of pink-washed the ongoing Israel-Hamas war by citing its LGBT-2-S plus inclusivity in an effort to draw attention away from its actions in Gaza.
Starting point is 00:53:16 This whole thing is just devolving into absurdity. The official Palestinian stance on gay people is that they need to be thrown off roofs. And you've got gay people, awesome. ostracizing themselves from everybody that's their traditional supporters, just so that they can support the people who literally want to throw them off of roofs. You know, this is what comes to mind. Hope they don't shit on you, Bubbles. Shit on you, boo.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Shit on you. Shit hogs. Bit dirty shithawks. If we're living in insane times, man. I haven't played that clip in a long, freaking time. It is the funnest, hilarious thing to watch these things that, like, what is going on right now? So who's fighting who now? I can't, yeah, no kidding.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Donald Schwartz, make Canada sing again. No freaking kidding. We don't usually show comments that are all caps, but I made an exception for that one. Don't get high on your safe supply. The Ontario government's decision to shutter multiple supervised drug consumption sites. Can I just say? Tuesday's on, I don't know what's going on with me this week. I'm in a very good mood.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Tuesday is on point with his, with your titles today. Like your headlines? Fantastic. Yeah, it's because I was uninterrupted. Is that why? I feel like you, I feel like you're not sick. Maybe you got a good night's sleep. And I can't, probably a couple other ones because you, you, it's up,
Starting point is 00:54:55 but you made me laugh like three times. He's had me agree with them twice, folks. Something is definitely off with mashup 121. The Ontario government's decision to shutter multiple server supervised drug consumption sites in Toronto runs counter to the expert opinions it sought about one of those sites. In the province's decision to shutter consumption sites within 200 meters of schools or daycares announced Tuesday, it has been welcomed by some and heavily criticized by others, of course. Quoted, evidence shows that consumption treatment services are necessary public health service implemented to save lives
Starting point is 00:55:28 and prevent accidental overdose deaths, says the supervisor's report of CRCHC, in April 2024. I don't know. Tuesday. I don't know. They're closing down things within 200 meters of schools and daycares. Yeah. And they're mad about that because this is the same thing BC was going through a year ago
Starting point is 00:55:48 where people were racist for saying that you shouldn't have syringes on playground equipment. And I love the fact that they're saying that what we know is that where they're located, there's been a massive reduction in overdose deaths and caused the paramedics. and calls the paramedics. They've been successful at reducing overdose deaths. We are concerned about the reduction in access to supervised consumption, which evidence shows it saves lives, reduces pressure on emergency services,
Starting point is 00:56:16 and helps connect people to treatment. You talk to anybody in emergency services, and they will tell you the exact fucking opposite. And they're complaining, we should start with a pilot. See if it reduces mortality in overdoses and connects people to recovery sites, check their outcomes, evaluate it, and then roll it out as a model. You do have a pilot. It's Vancouver.
Starting point is 00:56:39 They're saying, oh, yeah, we don't have any evidence for this. It's not evidence-based. Van fucking Coover. And actually, I jumped the gun here because this was a great tweet. If druggies can have the government pay for their expensive hard drugs, how do we get a safe drinking site going? I have an addiction to expensive scotch and tequila. I feel like this somehow qualifies for a government subsidy.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Somehow. Okay, absolutely right. And it's funny because you'll see people on Twitter making the exact same argument from the other side. They'll say, well, we've got supervised consumption sites for booze. They're called bars. But here's what I have to say about that. When was the last time you suck somebody's dick for a shot of tequila? Tews, do you have the Andrew Coyne tweet up by chance?
Starting point is 00:57:27 Can you show the video of the lady on CBC or do I got to show that? Yeah, I got it right here. Let's show this her right here. So you want the clip? I want you to play the clip. CBC's so-called expert. Yeah. That you don't close an essential services.
Starting point is 00:57:46 What are we going to close next? Are we going to close cancer treatments? Because people drink alcohol and alcohol produces cancer. Are we going to close them? Well, they did close down a lot of medical stuff in the past few years. And I don't think they're interested in doing it again. But so this guy, Sebastian Skamski, which is just a classic Ottawa name, by the way. Scamsky.
Starting point is 00:58:10 He's, uh, I think he's the comms director for Pollyab or something like that. Uh, so CBC's so-called quote, expert with 23 letters behind her name deems Trudeau's crime-ridden drug dens essential and equates them to cancer treatment centers. These are the wacko experts that Trudeau uses to defend his drug disaster. And he goes on, but coin who's just famous in Canada for having just. shit takes on everything. Yeah. But, but,
Starting point is 00:58:36 but they like to prop them up as being like the conservative voice. And so anyway, the key says the key phrase here is this nearing 23 letters behind her name. Experts are to be dismissed in the Polyev conservative view of the world, not in spite of their expertise, but because of it. Here's the thing. Okay.
Starting point is 00:58:54 I've got six letters after my name. And generally speaking, the more letters you have after your name, the less real world experience you have, and generally the shitter your opinions are. It's not saying that you're not educated, it's saying that you have a very biased interpretation of how things play out in the real world.
Starting point is 00:59:16 And intentionally misconstruing that is just classic Andrew Coyne. And I wanted to just point out with that video. That was the CBC live. And she was talking about trying, like, this is why this is dying to's. She's talking about a safe supply site being equated to cancer treatment. And like the whole story reads like, do you think the human population of Canada is that stupid? The article's talking specifically about safe supply, not all of them.
Starting point is 00:59:49 This one is talking about safe supply near schools and daycares. You're a moron. And this is why CBC needs to be shuttered. Okay? Absolutely. Liberals annual Affordability Retreat I'm just going to pull it up
Starting point is 01:00:10 I'm just going to pull up the here There you go The Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Today announced that he will hold A Cabinet retreat in Halifax Nova Scotia from August 25th to 27th The retreat will focus on the federal government's work To strengthen the middle class
Starting point is 01:00:23 We should all be so bloody lucky Grow the economy and deliver fairness For every generation Fairness for every generation love that Cabinet will take action On the top of mine priorities of Canadian This includes bringing down the cost of living, building more homes, investing in health care, making dental care and essential medications more affordable and taking climate action.
Starting point is 01:00:44 Climate action has been fairly well established in Canada as being the antithesis of affordability. I just think it's absolutely wonderful that our official government statement is written up exactly as a propaganda puff piece for the liberals. What's the definition of insanity, Sean? I don't know, doing the same thing over and over and again and expecting a different outcome, I assume. Yes, last August they had an affordability retreat in Prince Edward Island. You may remember we covered the outrageous cost of it. We did. Now they're doing the exact same thing again.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Maybe try something different. The last retreat cost us like half a million dollars and accomplished absolutely fuck all. Maybe throw some new ideas at the fucking problem. Democrats build their own wall. Democrats in a stunning display of irony are building an impenetrable wall around their convention. I think most people have seen this video in Chicago and demanding ID from everyone who enters a venue. This comes from the same party that decries walls as racist and insists that requiring ID is discriminatory. Meanwhile, all the appointments for free vasectomies for Democratic men at the convention have already filled up.
Starting point is 01:02:03 That's, yeah. I think that's perfect. The only thing wrong with that is that at the Republican National Convention, they should have also offered free vasectomies for Democrats. I don't know. I don't even know if any... Walls are racist. It's racist to demand ID, but we're going to do that at our convention.
Starting point is 01:02:28 But I do like the fact that they're sterilizing as many of their voters as possible. You know, it's funny. It's me hope for the next generation. Since that convention's been going on, the X has been alive with some pretty funny stuff coming out of there. People sharing videos, et cetera, et cetera. It's been interesting watching, right? Like, I mean, obviously, a Democratic convention is the United States once again. So I sit here in Canada and we bring it up because, you know, like...
Starting point is 01:02:53 Because it's silly. Yeah, it's silly. But, I mean, they told everybody that Beyonce was going to be there. Come to the convention. Beyonce is going to be there. Beyonce is going to be there. And then when Beyonce was supposed to take the stage, come on. Mala came out instead.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Update, Venezuela. Venezuela's Supreme Court has backed President Nicholas Maduro's claims that he won the last month's presidential election and said voting tallies published online showing he lost by a landside. The ruling is the latest attempt by Maduro to blunt protests and international criticism that erupted after the contest July 28th vote in which the self-proclaimed socialist leader was seeking a third six-year term. Yeah. The High Court is packed with Maduro loyalists and has almost never ruled against the government. See, that's the thing. Like, when everything's climate change, if something actually was climate change, we wouldn't believe you. Because you've said everything's climate change. When everything's racism, nothing's racism. And when the High Court always sides with Maduro no matter what, it has no credibility. And so now he's actually taking international criticism about this.
Starting point is 01:04:08 And so opposition volunteers managed to collect copies of voting tallies from 80% of the 30,000 polling booths nationwide, which showed Edmundo Gazales, won by more than two to one margin. The official tally sheets printed by each voting machine carry a QR code that makes it easy for everyone to verify the results and almost impossible to replicate. yet they still managed to forge 80% of 30,000 of them? I don't think that adds up. The government has claimed without evidence that a foreign cyber attack staged by hackers from North Macedonia. Of all random places, of course it's the Macedonians. They're so lazy all the time.
Starting point is 01:04:50 And when they finally do something, it's interrupting an election in Venezuela because they hate each other? Not even really that close to each other. Come on. Okay. So that's why it contradicts the findings of the experts from the UN and the Carter Center who were invited to observe the results and both determined the results announced lacked credibility. Do it again. Do it again. Nobody believes you. Do it again. Man hunt. Big foot. This is an actual picture that the. Toronto police released of a sexual assault
Starting point is 01:05:38 perpetrator that they're trying to track down. Correct. Correct. It's it's so for those of you listening, this is the blurriest fucking picture you could imagine. Picture a camera from 2004 with the resolution turned all the way down, zoomed way the fuck in on somebody and they're in a dead sprint. That's the picture here. I have seen clearer pictures. of Japanese genitals than this. Oh my God. Tuse, I don't know what you had this morning,
Starting point is 01:06:22 but you need to do the exact same thing. Maybe I'm goofy this morning. I don't know what's going on here today, folks. Oh boy. Yeah, I don't know what to say about that. I don't know. Well, oh, man. This has been a fantastic morning.
Starting point is 01:06:42 121. I should just wrap it up right here. No, it gets better. I do want to bring up this guy. The Surrey man charged and released. So, you know, as we're making fun of the photo, Mounties say a 24-year-old man has been charged with breaking and entering and sexual assault in connection with a stranger attack at a home in Surrey, B.C. A woman in the city's Newton neighborhood told investigators she woke up in her home
Starting point is 01:07:06 to a stranger groping her in the early hours of July 20th, according to police. Jatinder Singh was charged last week with one count, each of breaking and entering and sexual assault. He was arrested August 16th, and of course he was released and following a quarter appearance later that day. So, you know, like, as everyone in this country, no matter how bad or whatever you do,
Starting point is 01:07:27 go back to that picture for a minute. I just, isn't it a little fucked that that guy's beard directly connects to his one eyebrow? That's a hairy motherfucker. A crazy thing about this, though is that this is in that lady's home. She woke up, this wasn't like she was on the bus and somebody grabbed her ass or she was trying to, she was trying to do a report on a music festival for Coakeney and some future prime minister
Starting point is 01:07:56 grabbed her ass or some other place. This was, she woke up to this guy grabbing her. Okay. And then, of course, Sean has to point out that his name is Jadinder Singh because he's racist like that. If you're listening, I just, I think it's important. I don't care whether the race is calling, whatever. I think it's, I know you're teasing. You probably think Derek Jeter is a racial.
Starting point is 01:08:18 I think it's important to say the name, and if they got a photo, you show it, because at this point in time, our society as a whole is so terrified, and I don't mean you, the audience, our MASHIP audience, fantastic, and there's lots of wonderful people across this country. We're so terrified just to say who that is and point out the fact that this is who it is. You make up your own. I don't care.
Starting point is 01:08:38 I don't think it's fermenting anything. So it's a guy named Sing in Surrey, BC stumbled into someone's home in the middle of the night, start a grope in her, and he gets thrown in jail and gets old released, and on and on and on this freaking song and dance goes. All right. And then Donald Schwartz, dude, turn off caps lock. Turn off caps lock. But why is there more laws protecting perverts and pedophiles than children?
Starting point is 01:09:03 Well, there aren't a lot of children in Parliament passing laws, but there are a lot of the other guys. conspiracy theorist plus one uh fluoride okay we mentioned it earlier i'm going to bring it up here on the screen okay here we go uh it says breaking national tech toxics toxicology report made by us d h s concludes fluoride and drinking water two times what can be considered safe and is in fact lowering iq uh the ntp that's the national toxicology report geez can't spit that out monitoring The monograph concluded higher levels of fluoride exposure such as drinking water containing more than 1.5 milligrams of fluoride per liter are associated with lower IQ and children. It also said that designed, it was designed to evaluate, sorry, the NTP review was designed to evaluate total fluoride exposure from all sources and was not designed to evaluate the health effects of fluoride drinking water alone.
Starting point is 01:10:03 So the guy says, call your conspiracy theory friends, they were right again. I pointed out to twos, this is the United States, right? So one of the things being married to an American, we talk about do we have flora, because we always impose what they're doing there onto us. So I went and was digging. I found a report from back to 2022. And here is, I'm going to just expand that a little bit. This is the total population. Obviously, we've grown a bit, as is everybody.
Starting point is 01:10:34 And it shows in Canada, the populations with fluoridated system, versus with not. And you can see that in Alberta, 57% have no fluoride, and in Saskatchewan, 59.6% have no fluoride. That doesn't mean we aren't moving towards that, but once again, I just wanted to put that in for a little bit of added info
Starting point is 01:10:58 when it comes to Canada. Fluoride in the water, bad. I don't think that's shocking anyone, but it is now confirmed if you're waiting for the co-vindication, the fluoride version. But here's the Canada stats. I never really got behind the fluoride conspiracy theory too much.
Starting point is 01:11:16 The first time I ever heard about fluoride at all in the water, it was the story of how it got introduced in Colorado, where there was that teacher that had been one school where everybody had rotten teeth and one school where nobody had any, and it turned out that they found a little bit of fluoride in the water. And so went over to the other school and put a bit of fluoride in their water and everybody's cavities stopped growing. And I was like, okay, well, that seems fair enough.
Starting point is 01:11:42 I never really thought about it other than that. And I don't know a lot of the finer points of the fluoride conspiracy theory, but it seems as though there's some validity to it. I guess I need to get a better tinfoil hat. I'm probably, everybody's all disappointed in me now. Like, dudes, you don't even know about the fluoride? Oh, Glenn, it's been bugging me this whole damn episode. And every single time he does it, I just, I button up.
Starting point is 01:12:11 I'm like, no, no, no, that's fine. He does it all the time. He does it with the name pronunciations. Glenn Geberd, fermenting or fomenting? Dude, it's fomenting. It's fomenting. And you've got me and Glenn foaming at the mouth every time you say fermenting. Hey, Glenn, get over it. Hey, twos. I don't care. Fermented, baby. Let's go. Daniel Smith hails Mary. The Alberta government is creating a productivity review cabinet committee that will assess more committees that will assess spending in every government program. Premier Daniel Smith said at two party events over the weekend. At a UCP constituency fundraiser in Westluck on August 16th, Smith said the committee will perform a program by program review with the aim of finding savings so that we can deliver on the $760 per taxpayer personal
Starting point is 01:12:57 income tax cut. A new tax bracket on the first 60,000 of personal income tax was promised in the UCP 2023 election campaign and now they're trying to find a way to make it happen, twos. Basically, for those of you playing along at home, here's how the timeline's gone. Is that Daniel Smith came in rip, roar, and libertarian, we're going to cut all kinds of taxes. We're going to get rid of stupid programs. We're going to stand up to the feds. We're going to get our own pension and our own police force. And we're going to do all kinds of raw, raw Alberta sovereignty, what's actually good for us instead of what's actually good for Toronto for once policies. And then she got in. And,
Starting point is 01:13:39 has done nothing. Absolutely fuck all about it. And now everybody who either supported her at the start or like me for example and said, I'm a little bit fucking suspicious and they're all getting together and saying this is not what anybody wanted.
Starting point is 01:14:00 What you're doing, you may as well have voted notly in for all that Daniel Smith has been doing lately. So she's got her... I don't know if I can agree with that, but carry on. say at least to some extent. She's done nothing. Vote notly in? What are you been sniffing now this morning?
Starting point is 01:14:18 Now I'm curious. I don't think you get notley over Daniel Smith. That's an insane idea. That's an insane idea. And you know it. Daniel Smith has basically. She's been coasting. She's just, we're in.
Starting point is 01:14:29 I'll give you this. We don't want to piss anybody off. If we cut any money, someone's going to get pissed off somewhere. They're going to vote NDP because they're going to give everybody. Listen, I will give you coasting. I'll give you she has not been doing enough, but voting in. Anyway, like, what are you going to say next? We should vote Nenshi next election?
Starting point is 01:14:47 Come on. Get out of here. Her reviews coming up here in a few months. And this is just the last ditch to be able to come in like the day of and be like, I know you guys have been mad for two years, but hold up, look, look, look. We managed to save $760. And so I'm, I'm, I'm good again, right? You guys are going to vote for me?
Starting point is 01:15:06 You guys are going to vote for me? $760. That's exactly what this is. It shouldn't be trying to do the absolute bare minimum of what was promised. Why don't you try and go above and beyond? Cut and slash. Call me up. I will give you some ideas.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Burn it all. I'm not going to argue with you on that I, the first year, not everybody was upset with her. They were waiting. You know, the thing was, well, I guess we're waiting. Okay, it takes time. But two years in, Everyone's upset and it's becoming more and more relevant. But I think a lot of conservatives are saying,
Starting point is 01:15:44 so who is going to take her place? Who are we going to put it in that spot? Here's the thing. Is it, okay, it's not as though you need to pick a successor and then fire somebody who sucks. If somebody sucks at your company, you don't be like, okay, well, you know what, we're going to wait until we've got a perfect candidate lined up
Starting point is 01:16:04 and they go through the hiring process and the interviews and all of that stuff, if somebody is not doing what you're paying them to do, you stop paying them. And so I am going to go get my UCP membership, and I'm going to get a ticket, and I'm going to be there. There's going to be there.
Starting point is 01:16:21 There's going to be a whole lot of other people there. If you want to meet us at the convention in Red Deere, I think to all of you lovely mashup listeners who are sitting in Alberta, you should buy a UCP membership, we should meet there. We should have a supper or a get-together. We should have a little bit of fun, trying to have a little bit of fun, but absolutely. We should be, we should all be there. That in my mind makes the most sense to us.
Starting point is 01:16:45 We should all go and and hear what the heck is being said. But agreed on the Daniel Smith thing, okay? She's got time to change my mind. There's a whole bunch of things. But that one goes closing. That didn't happen that she's been talking about, ran on, etc. But to say she did absolutely nothing, come on. come on.
Starting point is 01:17:06 She's been doing things. As far as the pension goes, she did worse than nothing as far as the pension goes. I will say that. You could not try harder to do a bad job of selling the pension than what the UCP is done. And unless I'm completely off base, it's because Pollyev said, we got to just tone it down because it doesn't play well in the rest of the country. If you guys could just slow play this and spike the football, we'll give you a bunch of money on other shit.
Starting point is 01:17:36 She's dragging her feet on the pension because it looks like pull. No, she's not dragging her feet. The communication on it has been utter garbage. Right, right, right, right, right. Well, okay, garbage equates to dragging her feet because... No, dragging her feet would be better. It's, the communication has been so poor that it does absolutely nothing to bring people over and further cements the people who are against it and the people who are leaning to be
Starting point is 01:18:00 against it. If she had just done nothing, it would have been better. for the overall support in the province of the pension. That's interesting. In advance. Most conflict happens over unmet expectations, and she really let you guys down. Yeah, you're telling me, buddy.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Well, everybody's been waiting for her to do like five things, right? You know, I don't know. Pick one, pick one and do it. Minds of really, you know, there's lots, okay? Mine's a really stupid, easy one that I feel like is easy. Is the fuel tax not easy, twos? super easy. It's $6.5 billion surplus.
Starting point is 01:18:39 Cut that fuel tax. Cut the fuel tax. I just, I don't even understand it. It's so simple. Just do it. Now, the police force, it becomes a little more difficult. The pension, I understand, becomes a little more difficult. And I actually understand your frustration.
Starting point is 01:18:53 And I go, yeah, I don't know. You said there's going to be a referendum. So let's move towards these things. I'm going to see about, well, we're going to see about trying to get the premiere back on the show. One, let's see if we can't get her back on. Maybe I should just take back everything I said. No. No. No. No.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Listen, when Daniel Smith... I'm kidding. I know. But when Daniel Smith was on radio and she used to have Kenny on all the time, she didn't take... She didn't put on these, you know, and just glad hand up. She went after it. I respect Daniel Smith. I'll say that over and over again. But things need to happen real fast because Albertans aren't like other places in this world. at least I don't know too many places that are like this place where it's like, listen, you're not moving.
Starting point is 01:19:38 So you're either going to start moving for us or we're going to oust you. I actually get that sentiment immensely. And you can see she's trying to adjust because that's why she's going to all these small communities or not all of them small, but that's why she's doing this little tour. It's because the leadership review is coming up.
Starting point is 01:19:55 It's not because she's trying to, she's putting it off to the last minute. Sure. Well, I've said this. Listen to, too, is me and you have. talked about this off-air lots and I'm extending this just a smidge here by a few minutes obviously folks that she has done not when it comes to all these communities all these rural areas all these conservative areas every one of these has moved away from mainstream which means they're listening through
Starting point is 01:20:22 different places such as the podcast or other alternative means right I'm by no means the only one there's lots yeah and the math is by no means the only one. But we are in that conversation. And she does, I don't know, have you seen her hop on a bunch of different things? I've seen her on the Canadian taxpayers. I've seen her there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:45 She hopped on Ryan Jesperson. Yeah. 630, Chad. Mm-hmm. Right? But, I mean, I don't need somebody to do a talk show circuit. I'd rather have somebody who I couldn't even remember the name of. No, what I'm saying with the talk, with the circuit, though, is, is if you,
Starting point is 01:21:02 You are losing your base's opinion. Like, what are they saying? You can't stop talking to them for a period of time because their concerns matter. And now she's doing this circuit trying to figure out what matters to them, even though she knows, right? She doesn't have to be on a talk show. She could just listen to a couple.
Starting point is 01:21:21 It's not like what we're saying is unique. Well, fair enough. Fair enough. That's a fair point, too. Okay. I've dragged this on too much. It's Alberta, folks. We're sitting in Alberta.
Starting point is 01:21:30 And we got a leadership review coming up. study on red meat done by total nerds. Yes, this is true. Regularly eating red and processed meats in particular is associated with higher risk of type 2 diabetes according to an analysis. And it goes on and on. Yes. Okay, this is interesting.
Starting point is 01:21:48 Okay, first off, look at the picture here. Steaks and other beef products are displayed for sale at grocery store in McLean, Virginia. Now, just out of curiosity, in this picture, what products do you see that aren't steaks. What? Say that again?
Starting point is 01:22:08 Well, the caption underneath this picture says, Stakes and other beef products are displayed. It's all steak. It's all steak. This article isn't even done by anybody with an appreciation of the cuisine. And so here's the thing. Researchers analyze data from nearly 2 million people across 20 countries. The team also accounted for factors including diet quality,
Starting point is 01:22:33 physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, energy intake, and body mass index that could impact the results that may otherwise exaggerate or mask the relationships of meat and type 2 diabetes. Now, first off, body mass index is incredibly misleading for people with large muscle mass, i.e. people who eat stakes a lot are going to show up exactly the same as fat people on this study. The other thing is, however, the data did not allow researchers to account for other things that may contribute to type 2 diabetes, including family history, insulin resistance. You don't need to read this. The point is, they studied 2 million people in 20 countries, and they didn't even ask how big
Starting point is 01:23:15 their pants size was. All I'm saying is, at this point, this is why the CBC is dying because they keep bringing up stories like this where our audience already understands that eating meat isn't bad for you. that going to the grocery store and going down pretty much 87% of aisles, there's a lot of bad stuff. The meat aisle isn't one. Now, when they start injecting other things in there,
Starting point is 01:23:40 maybe you want to go to someone local. And I would probably suggest that at this point. Reading this article is of no use to any of us. It just shows the absurdity of CBC, and how they are a dying, dying organism, and they can't die fast enough. Oh, man. Conspiracy theorist plus two.
Starting point is 01:24:01 On June 6, 2024, a federal court in San Francisco found Stephen Chamberlain and his boss tech tycoon Mike Lynch not guilty of inflating their company autonomy before selling it to Hewlett Packard in 2011. This was considered a lucky break by many, but apparently $11 billion in 2011 was an inflated number according to the court. Then, if you read down, Stephen Chamberlain, Autone's former vice president of finance, who worked alongside Chief Executive Mr. Lynch was killed after being hit by a vehicle while running outside on Saturday. His lawyer, Gary Lisenberg, said, and less than 48 hours later, Mr. Lynch was among six tourists who went missing after a luxury yacht sank in a tornado off the coast of Sicily earlier on Monday.
Starting point is 01:24:45 Funny how things just seem to happen like that. I wonder if they're COVID deaths. Can we please get to everyone has a price. Thank you. Charles freaking ass. Everybody's been waiting all week for it. I've been waiting all week for it. I've been waiting for Tuesday sound off on this. Ladies and gentlemen, this is why you purge your feet. I'm bringing up twos' tweet here of a whole bunch of things Charles Adler said. If you hadn't heard, Charles Adler getting appointed to independent Senate placement for Manitoba.
Starting point is 01:25:23 And then, of course, since then it has been absolute insanity of tweets coming out that he'd said and on and on and on. and then the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs wants Canada's Governor General and the Prime Minister to rescind the Senate appointment. Not even they're against it. They're actively calling for him to be removed. Correct. Okay. So this is just, let's just go for a quick little walk. Wipe the slate clean by abolishing current Senate from Charles Adler.
Starting point is 01:25:51 Cleaning out the Senate barn is not complicated. Pay him $100 a month and no pension. The whores won't take the job. Great app to help us laugh at yourself. taking yourself seriously as risky, you could wind up in the Senate hashtag worst nightmare. Do you think the root cause of Senate scandal was too bad hires with network TV experience? This coming from Charles Adler, a lifetime media person. Nigel Wright says email he told Senate to cease until they check with him.
Starting point is 01:26:21 Sober second thought or is Senate a clunker driven by power drunks? Supreme Court strikes down prostitution laws. Senate will no longer be the only legal brothel in the land. Senate is a sewer that needs to be terminated. It doesn't justify moral or legal crimes, but here's some news. Red Chamber passes assisted dying. Senate is a watchdog? A watchdog guards you.
Starting point is 01:26:47 The Senate isn't guarding you any more than the wolf is guarding the sheep. CPC should propose Senate abolition and first term of a new government. Let the post-Senate era begin. But when you get offered a life. time appointment, with a pension, and a very healthy slush fund of travel expenses and per diems, you seem to just forget all that exists. And then not only that, there were two appointments. Well, okay, first off for this.
Starting point is 01:27:13 Yes, he got appointed in Manitoba. And I get the fact that Manitoba is not exactly the cream. But this has to be like at least the third or fourth best person for the job in Manitoba. Like, come on, folks. it's Manitoba. It's not Prince Edward Island. And Saskatchewan nominated one. Where the heck is?
Starting point is 01:27:36 Oh, shoot. No, I'm skipping ahead here. So, oh, one second here. There's just so much. So much. So PM named Saskatoon's Tracy Mugley as independent senator. This is an article from CTV talking about how the independent committee
Starting point is 01:27:56 nominated this independent Senator. And here is her. Sean's got it up. This is one of the two separate times that she ran for the liberal. The liberal parties. Yeah. Like Tracy Mugly.
Starting point is 01:28:13 Liberal. Team Trudeau. Yeah, this seems like somebody who's independent. And this is the worst of it. Trudeau's Senate appointee, Tracy Mugley, made 222 donations to the Liberal Party of Canada. Fuck her.
Starting point is 01:28:32 Oh, man. Yeah, it's a sad day. Great Britain faces prisoner housing shortage. Just show the video to us. I think you just got to pull up the video and show this. Basically, you know, well, I mean, if you show the video, he's going to say it all. He's going to say it all. We will get a prison cell. We will make sure that those people who need to be in prison will be in prison, not necessarily in the area where they live. They may be two, 300 miles away from home, but we will guarantee people at prison cell. The numbers are so tight. How can you make that guarantee? They are tight and that's why we've initiated operation early dawn. So basically the easiest way to describe it is one in one out. So as people get released, we can then pick up people from police cells and take them to court.
Starting point is 01:29:19 And we will triage that three times a day. We will guarantee a prison cell. There you go. They're going to guarantee a prison cell. So the prison cells in the UK are full. but they're arresting all these people for saying mean things on the internet but they've got nowhere to put them
Starting point is 01:29:36 and so they are now prioritizing mean things on the internet over actual fucking criminals serving actual fucking jail time correct and so if they if another person in Great Britain says something mean on the internet
Starting point is 01:29:52 they've got to release some guy who robbed a bank or killed somebody or whatever else So, like, just imagine you're in for like 80 years. You got all the homemade tattoos all over your arms and your face and everything like that. And they just be like, boy, mate, storm to get out. We got a new one coming in. That's what's happening there.
Starting point is 01:30:19 Update, conspiracy theorist plus three. This is on, well, this is the water. I, twos, I want you to talk to this one more than me read off anything. Okay. So I had said a little while ago, so first we had Calgary. And then we had Quebec City. Oh, sorry, Quebec City, yep. And now we have a big fucking blowout on, it's never one of the small ones.
Starting point is 01:30:47 And these never, these things are never subtle. Ample of what I mean to say aging water pipes. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And there it is. There it is. Water spills into the streets, spewing. That's what's going on in fucking Quebec right now, in Montreal, is now we've got the third one.
Starting point is 01:31:09 And they keep talking about how they need more funding. And it's never how are they spending the money. It's we need more money. And so anyway, as far as I'm concerned, this has happened enough times that I'm going to put on my tinfoil hat and say that it's a planned fucking thing. We had three giant water mains. And three giant cities.
