Starting point is 00:00:04 Is there some kind of a special specific training program that everybody who runs a drive-thru in Canada has to partake in? Where the focal point is to talk to you like you're a piece of shit at the end of the order. No matter how much you order. Like, hi, can I get a large black coffee? And that's it. What the fuck do you mean? That's it. You cheap piece of shit?
Starting point is 00:00:40 Order more stuff. What do you mean? want to order three of everything on the menu. God damn it, you frugal motherfucker. Step up and spend more money. You're wasting my time. This is how they talk to you. This is how they make you feel
Starting point is 00:00:56 the scorn they put in your voice. And it's made even worse by the fact that it's being done by a guy who, him and his three roommates, share a fucking bathtub. I've been wondering how many times they go, uh,
Starting point is 00:01:12 you know, are you a member? No. Like you already know they're going to ask the question. Are you going to point out? No. Nope. Just, nope. I just want a coffee. And then like, would you like, do you like a, no.
Starting point is 00:01:20 Are you going to add anything with that? It's like a struddle with that. It's like no. Wonder how many times people say yes. Because obviously there's been like an uptick in sales by doing it, right? Or am I wrong? Well, probably on, on an infinite timeline, yes. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Actually, you know what? Now that you're making me feel like a cheap dick, sure, I'll buy some Tim bits. I'm sorry. I'm sorry to have offended you. Strengthen my resolve. I don't really like Tim Horton's coffee to begin with. And McDonald's, although has pretty good coffee, and irritate the crap out of me every time I go in there
Starting point is 00:01:58 because they're like, are you going to remember? No, no. And they almost laugh at you because they know they got a script to read from, you know. Anyways, mashup 123. How are you doing today? Tuesday is good. It's been a busy couple days. kind of had my spectral thrown out of whack.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Yeah. I went and saw this buddy of mine. He was, you know, that's how the week went. That's kind of that. I stopped in this little place. I saw this guy named twos. And, yeah, it was decent, you know. Got a good catch up.
Starting point is 00:02:32 That's all right. Yep. Yeah. Lisa Ferguson, I hate when Tim's asks if I want a hash brown with my farmer's rap. There already is one in the wrap. I like to get an extra Like I'll get the one
Starting point is 00:02:44 If I get a farmer's wrap I'll get the one that's obviously in it And then I'll get a meal And ask for an extra hash brown And I don't do that anymore Because it's just too much for them to comprehend It's funny because on the one hand They're like you have to order more stuff
Starting point is 00:03:01 Or you're a jerk And on the other hand where you're like I would like a total of three hash browns In this meal I'm feeling the hash browns this morning and they can't help but screw it up. You would. You know, when, when, uh, when, uh, oh, well, hello, Patricia.
Starting point is 00:03:19 She says, hi, guys, can't believe I actually get to finally see you alive. Love the show and you two are awesome. Thanks, Patricia. Very much. You know, when, uh, Kristen McGowan said she would, okay, like, we're going to do this. I'm going to advertise on this. Uh, I, Carla says waiting for Fridays these days. so are we. You were saying, though, Sean.
Starting point is 00:03:42 I'm like, I wonder if she knows what she's signed up for because she listens to the show. And I'm like, well, she's in for a doozy because Tooz starts off making jokes about drive-throughs. And then cuts me off three different times while I'm trying to get into the ad read. So, but it's funny, folks. Before we started the show, you know, I'm going, Two's okay. I'm this one thinking he goes, that's a terrible idea. Don't do it like that. Dad's got this. And I'm like, Dad's got this. All right. all right all right christie mcgowan professional chartered accountant twos please enlighten us mcgallon professional corporation they are not accepting new clients right now but if you ask nice you might get on a wait list
Starting point is 00:04:23 this is how busy they are and she's looking for a CPA or somebody who is on their way to being a CPA to come in and take some of the load off of her plate off of her desk as it were and you know cool thing about accountants, as much as they're absolutely dreadful in parties and that they don't really get a lot of jokes a lot of the time, it seems like, they truly do God's work. Their job is to keep as much of your money in your pocket and give as little of it to the fucking government as you can without going to jail. It's a beautiful profession. what do you think about it? And their busy tax time is April. It's right in between ice fishing and regular fishing.
Starting point is 00:05:14 It's on the opposite side of the calendar from hunting season. It's a perfect fit. I wonder if that was on purpose. Probably. Probably. I imagine back when Sainer heads prevailed in Ottawa, they're like, well, let's just do it right here. Let's make this the busy season for accountants.
Starting point is 00:05:34 And so, you know, you'd be potentially going into, assuming you get the job, going into a place where they're smart, they're capable, you get treated like an adult. And so if you want some flexibility to work from home a little bit more, well, there's enough accountability within the entire profession regardless that you're not going to be a laggard like the public sector like we're going to talk about later. If the public sectors, listen to us, they heard, we're working. from home and then she'll get like 500,000 resumes. If you work from the public sector, first of all, you probably hate this show. And secondly, it's probably not going to be a good fit for you there. I'm guessing. I'm guessing.
Starting point is 00:06:14 You should ask her, though. Don't take my word for it. But they're looking for a CPA or somebody on their way to be in a CPA who can do a good job of working with people primarily in agriculture and oil and gas. And if you think that's due. And if I made twos, one of the things I, she already knows this, but one of the things I was talking to her about is the mashup audience is different than anything that I do. And so you wonderful people got to help her out.
Starting point is 00:06:43 We got to find, you know, you can't have a word. Actually, you know what, don't, yeah. Yeah, well,
Starting point is 00:06:48 you got a driving business that they can't take. Yeah. As much as you like asking for people. Daddy's got this, he says. Dad's got this. Dad's got this. You know what?
Starting point is 00:06:56 Just put it in the pacifier, go in the back seat. We're going to put on Paw Patrol for Sean for a minute. And here's the thing is, We like to ask, hey, you know what? Every once in a while, if you're enjoying this show, like, subscribe, retweet. If you know somebody who's into accounting or is a CPA or something like that, mention this to them.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Because this isn't the big wig crappy firm that they're used to working for in downtown Ottawa or downtown Saskatoon. This is a little bit different and I would say probably a whole lot better. If I wasn't so damn old, it would make me. think about becoming a CPA just so I could get this but it might be for you Sean welcome back glad to have you you know the one thing about like doing a live show that I cannot script is the guy on the other side and I it's like yeah what am I going to do what am I going to do mashup 123 bought to you by Kristen McGowan CPA you can go to McGowan CPA.ca you know like maybe there's just
Starting point is 00:08:03 be a new slogan. I have a shirt with Donald Trump that I got from the United States. United States and it says Daddy's home. I'm meant to wear it. But anyways, it's that would have been even better. Yeah, yeah, Daddy's home. Now, now literally, now literally
Starting point is 00:08:21 Tews is trying to tell me dad's got this on the ad rates. There you go. So McGowan CPA, we're looking for CPAs, folks, trying to help a lady out, who is one of you who wants for business to continue to grow and thrive and help other people get off the wait list and get their taxes and all that good stuff done. The sooner she gets enough people working for her with the qualified roles,
Starting point is 00:08:43 the more money she can keep from going to fucking Trudeau. What more do you want, guys? And Michelle Krieger says, Cardiff, Saskatchewan, spring fling September 7th. Carnive got a lot of time for that place. One of my, well, my best buddy, actually, is from Carnuff. I think he might be listening right now. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:09:03 If he is, just run your mouth in the comments. You're always going to do it anyway. But that's a great reminder. If you have any events coming up, throw them in the comments. We'll go through them at the end. Yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:17 We got a couple things here. One, let's start with the collection, a couple different things here. Bada bing, bada boom. So if you want a mash-up shirt, if you want a mash-up mug, a few things like that, there is a website where you can go.
Starting point is 00:09:33 and you can buy whatever cool stuff you want, I guess within what's available on the website. And I'll put that in the comments. No people, you're a fan. That's right. That's right. Happy Airborne Friday to Jamie Sinclair and the boys. And I'm going to talk.
Starting point is 00:09:50 I'm going to talk to Jamie just for one second here because he asked me this every week. How do I watch you live? How do I watch you live? How do I watch you live? If he's got to ask, you're not actually talking to him right now, but continue. Yeah, I agree. but he's going to listen to this,
Starting point is 00:10:04 and I'm going to say it again in the show to anyone who can't find us live. We're live 10 a.m. Mountain Standard Time on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Facebook, on YouTube, on Rumble. Am I missing anything to us? A lot, but we'll get to it all later. Sure.
Starting point is 00:10:23 And if you're watching right now, make sure to, if you're on one of those platforms to share us out, it helps get through the, I don't know, the growing temperature, censorship and and everything else that goes on day by day. There you go. Tell an enemy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Tell an enemy about us. That'd be great. Coutes 2, 936 days today. I'm doing a live on Monday, 2.30 in the afternoon with Levine and Marco Van Hogan Boss again and an unnamed third because there should be big news in theory coming out Monday. I guess we'll wait and see if they push it down the road a bit more. But regardless, Coots Boys 936.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Anything else before we get this thing rolling to us? That's about it. Let's get cracking. All right. Here we go. Public sector faces its greatest challenge yet. Federal civil servants will head back into the office three days a week
Starting point is 00:11:27 starting September 9th, but union leaders are pushing back, calling it one of the most anti worker policies that we've ever seen. Civil servants quoted civil servants say they're more productive at home. I bet they do. Why would they not say that? I would say that. I can't do my job from home, my day job anyway. But yeah, of course you're going to say that. Why wouldn't you say that? An anti-worker, the whole point of working is that you're doing something for somebody. And if you're just at home on the couch, you're not actually working. It's the exact opposite of anti-worker. It's pro-worker. These people are so dumb, Sean, and they're just ready to riot over the fact that they have to go into their job three days a week and how evil, evil and inconvenient it is.
Starting point is 00:12:13 They're so out of touch. How do we take Elon Musk up on his offer to President Trump to, you know, go on a panel or on whatever they're calling on the commission to like thin out the public sector? Could we just pull them up here for a little bit? I feel like that we probably wouldn't be able to get Elon Musk to do it because every, country in the world presumably is going to want him to do that after the fact, with the exception of the government workers, of course. You know, but, but the idea of the two bobs from office space are our country needs it. And if Elon Musk is successful in it, you know, maybe we get like a wish.com version of
Starting point is 00:12:53 Elon Musk in Canada, where twos flies out to Ottawa and just cuts heads all around the board, right? Because it's crazy. And here's the thing is, so this is an interesting thing from Brian Lilly. Percentage of employees working mostly from home in select cities. It's the largest 15 cities in Canada. The second highest one is Oshawa at 25.6%. And number one is Ottawa slash get near at 34.2%. A third, over a third of Ottawa, get in.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Yeah. Works from fucking home. What a bunch of reloaded pieces of shit. Kelly Lloyd, fire all the bureaucrats. Love it. I probably put up the next... You might want to put up the next headline, eh? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:54 Dad's got this, folks. Don't worry about it. Oh, here we go with that. Before I read the next headline, I just want to make sure that people know that Monday, 10 a.m. to noon is supposed to be sentencing for the Coots Boys. So that's what's big book this Monday coming up. Putin endorses his allies.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Tews has added in the headline on me. I assume this is the interview where he endorses Harris. And I assume you're going to show it. Yeah. I mean, you didn't have to spoil it for everybody. But here's a quick little clip of Vladimir Putin. He's not the beautiful lady here. but here is her talking to Vladimir Putin
Starting point is 00:14:36 about what he thinks about the upcoming election. If we can name a favorite candidate, it used to be Joe Biden, but now he is not participating in the election campaign and he recommended all his allies to support Ms. Harris. So that is what we are going to do. And that's basically, it. Vladimir Putin, who has been the scapegoat for all elections in North America for the past
Starting point is 00:15:10 decade, has said in an interview that he's endorsing Kamala Harris. It's beautiful. I love it. It's as much as the guy is a mega-lomaniacal maniacal maniacical dictatorial mass murderer, he's also wicked smart and really funny. Well, I think it's like, if you watch the video, you're like, oh, man, this is totally him just like making fun of it, right? And, and like using the system against itself. But if all you've read was the headline, Putin endorses, endorses Harris, everybody's heads are popping on one. He would, no way, what? And he's getting ahead of it before they can, they can do any, I mean, it's, it's, yeah, it's been really interesting.
Starting point is 00:15:58 because as soon as I saw the headline on Twitter, I'm like, the heck. And then you watch it and you start laughing. I'm like, this is pretty funny. The host can't contain herself. She's laughing. Oh, yeah. Thin green line. The Alberta government is pulling its share of the funding for Calgary Green Line LRT,
Starting point is 00:16:16 according to a letter sent to Mayor Jody Gondack on Tuesday. In the September 3rd letter, Transportation and Economic Corridor's Minister Devin Drieshan called the City's revised Green Line LRT plan unacceptable, saying the province would not support it. Went on to say the Green Line has fast become a multi-billion dollar boondoggle that will serve very few Calgarians. And although we understand that hundreds of millions have already been spent on utility
Starting point is 00:16:40 and other work for the current Green Line scope, throwing good money after bad is simply not an option for our government. Yeah, it's the sunk cost fallacy, Sean. And I think they, I think Driesian did a good job of saying, you know what we got to draw the line somewhere this thing has it started off being much larger than it is at a less than a quarter of the current budget so it's already gone 400% over budget so classic government remember we talked about the the pipeline that finally got done similar thing and then here's jody gondack talking about it we have been fiscally responsible with
Starting point is 00:17:23 green line we have tried to deliver it within budget Now, they're already 400% over budget, but we've tried to deliver it within budget. We had before us with our other two funding partners. Unfortunately, the delay that will come with this review that's been requested and the uncertainty in the market will elevate costs on this project. No, the fact that you guys fucking suck at project management is what did it. The amount that the provincial government and the federal government has chipped in for this project is more than the entire original budget and she's complaining that they're not getting even more fucking money. Now,
Starting point is 00:18:02 Corey Morgan, who's been following this really closely and doing a great job of it, he's pointing out, look at the map of the latest green line plan. This is all of the stops. O'Clair, seventh, a fourth, Ramsey, seven, eight, eight stops. This is eight stops for six and a half, six point two, billion dollars. The original one was probably 15 stops on the south end and then it also went north for another 15 or 20 stops as well for one and a half billion. And so it's a quarter, if not less,
Starting point is 00:18:44 of the scope for over 400% of the budget. So you're looking at 1.16th of the value. And people are saying, well, why can't you just keep throwing more money at it? Because it all gets fucked wasted. A modest expense. The people who run the investment arm of the Canada pension plan are moving to a new upscale office in downtown Toronto and the estimated 10-year cost of the move will likely be between 300 million to 430 million. According to the quarterly office market report by Collier's Canada between January and March of this year, CPP investments signed a new lease at CIBC Square comprised of a pair of luxurious new office towers that inside of the say offers some of the most expensive office space available in the country.
Starting point is 00:19:36 The money to pay for that move will come out of the returns on the reserve fund for the Canadian pension plan, which more than 22 million Canadian workers must contribute to by law. It's not a move because it requires more space as the new office will actually be 10% smaller than the current office, which CPP investments owns outright. CPP investment has been under growing scrutiny from Canadians who contribute to the plan as its operating expenses have climbed. And here I'm going to pull this up so you can see it,
Starting point is 00:20:04 have climbed from $1.6 billion in fiscal 2024 from $11 million in 2003. The funds net assets in that time, though, have also grown from $632 billion in 2024 from $17 billion in 2003. I don't know why they wrote it that way, but regardless, you get the point. Their funds managed have gone way up and their expenses are like going, look at the, look at the screen. You get the point I'm trying to make here. Here's the thing is that part of the reason why their funds have gone way up
Starting point is 00:20:36 is because there have been so many contributions from places like Alberta, who vastly over contributes. And anybody who wants to dispute that, look at the cap on CPP investments and then look at the median income levels in different provinces. And that will tell you who's actually putting in up to and above, or up to the maximum, right? And then here's the thing is that, first off, it doesn't really matter how big the fund is or isn't.
Starting point is 00:21:07 It's what return on investment are you getting from what you personally put into it? This is a tangent. And I'm going to stop here, but I'm about to go off the goddamn rails about how fucked up our pension plan is. But they're going to spend upwards of half a billion dollars getting sexy offices while they all want to work from fucking home. It doesn't have to make sense, dude. Don't try and make sense of this.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Criminal justice system. A man caught transporting 27,000 fentanyl pills from Vancouver to Calgary, was let go by a bizarre ruling from a judge. Tuesday I could see is going to pull up the video, so you can see what's going on. The ruling from the charter right against unreasonable search was violated because the drug sniffer dog only partially sat. You got that right, folks.
Starting point is 00:22:01 So he's in the back of the car. they get the drug sniffing dog to go around and actually if I rewind here you can see he's got his looks like a Dodge Caravan maybe pulled over to the side basically right up against one of those
Starting point is 00:22:17 cement embankments and so when the dog comes around later you see him right there he doesn't have room to sit down all the way but the problem is is that him sitting down is how he
Starting point is 00:22:34 indicates the officer that he's found drugs. But he doesn't have the room to sit down. And so he just kind of does this half squat. And the judge says, well, he didn't sit down all the way. So you had no right to do the search and seizure on him. Meanwhile, he admits to being a mule. So he literally goes into the cop shop, gets arrested, sits down, has a cup of coffee, and says, yeah, well, you know what drug mules are.
Starting point is 00:23:00 And then they're like, no, we don't know what drug mules are. Tell us more about it. which on the one hand, maybe they're just trying to lead him into saying more. But on the other hand, our cops are idiots, so it's a reasonable question. But he got off Scott Free,
Starting point is 00:23:14 and that's... Meanwhile, if you have old... Explosives 200 kilometers north of the Coots protest. You know... It tucked away in a mezzanine for years. This thing... Yeah, I don't know. I mean...
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah. Caught red-handed with 27,000. thousand pills in the judge. Well, he didn't sit. Oh my God. Aside, fake news. Tuesday just tells me to read the tweet. All right. Here comes a tweet, folks. It says, residents in West Eminton's Parkview and Crestwood areas are getting fed up with increased crime and disorder in the mature neighborhoods long known for being quiet and desirable to live in. I am sick and fucking tired of our leg.
Starting point is 00:24:03 media being completely unable to speak accurately to anything going on in this country. There is no such thing as a place in Edmonton that's desirable to live. You guys are literally fake news. Trans, sorry, Edmonton, trans stuff this week. Well, threats against the Canadian Women's Magazine prompted publishers to revise a contentious article over the weekend. published on August 19th, online August 19th, L Canada published a listical entitled. Did I, is that what it actually says? A listical.
Starting point is 00:24:45 It's an article that's a list. Oh my God. Okay. Entitled these eight incredible Canadians. It goes out of your mouth and you'll be able to say it better. Entitled, the eight incredible Canadians have broken the glass ceiling by writer Sedef. Asan featured. profiles of eight change makers, including LGBT advocate Faye Johnstone, journalist Connie Walker,
Starting point is 00:25:10 hockey great, Cassie Campbell, Pascal, and independent MPP Sarah Jemah. Despite the gender neutral headline of the article's online version, social media posts in the magazine's print edition described the piece as profile of eight incredible Canadian women. You can imagine insanity ensued. I mean, maybe sanity, maybe I should say sanity ensued because that is insanity. Yes. So they originally tweeted women and then they got absolutely lumbasted.
Starting point is 00:25:42 And I think that where Brian picked up on this story was after the internet had been changed. But people, when it originally came up, were like, what the hell? Two of these aren't even women. And one of them got kicked out of the NDP for hating Jews too much. Do you have any idea how fuck? crazy you have to be to get kicked out of the NDP for hating Jews too much. And so they got a bunch of pushback online. And there's a picture of Faye Johnson.
Starting point is 00:26:16 You can see your dick in the picture. Those tight leather pants that women wear, there's a reason why they're not popular among dudes. Like, I can literally tell from this picture of your tight-ass fucking pants, Faye Johnston. where you stand on the whole Israel-Palestine thing. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Anyway, it gets changed a bunch of times, and they said it's because threats they got. None of them were provided. As far as I'm concerned, they were just lying to cover up the fact that it's poorly thought out, and they got a bunch of blowback. Well, I mean, it's definitely poorly played out.
Starting point is 00:26:56 I wonder if, I don't know. Yes. I just, I read that. I'm like, I'm not. doing any research on this at all. So, Michelle, isn't that the person
Starting point is 00:27:10 that the Regina Chamber of Commerce brought in to speak at its Women of Distinction Awards? You are correct. Yes, that is correct. That is the dude with the nappy-ass teeth that they brought in to talk
Starting point is 00:27:23 about being a woman of distinction. I think it says a lot about Regina in general that the best woman they could find was that fugly man. fake money a Quebec man has been jailed after he admitted to masterminding one of the largest ever series of shipments of Chinese made counterfeit tunis in Canadian history 26,630 to be exact. Jean-François, Jean-Rae was sentenced to nine months in jail before the Labor Day weekend after he pleaded guilty to two criminal charges, including importing and introducing counterfeit money into Canada. I scrolled down. One of the things,
Starting point is 00:28:03 this guy has like a long record here. He'd been previously jailed three times, including 12 months in 2012 for court records show. And Mike Marshall, an Ontario-based counterfeit coin expert called the Quebec man's sentence, a slap on the wrist. He said counterfeiters can face up to 14 years in jail under the Canadian law. So for the largest one in Canadian history,
Starting point is 00:28:25 you're giving them nine months. Yes. Kelly Lloyd, as you called it twos. Thank you for that. I'm not sure which part we're talking about specifically, but I'm sure you are correct. If you haven't learned anything,
Starting point is 00:28:37 anytime you compliment twos, it gets red. That is, you know, all the compliments. Yeah, yeah. I am shameless.
Starting point is 00:28:45 So this guy gets a bunch of fake tunis made in China. And in classic Chinese manufacturing fashion, they're poorly made. It says Canada on it twice, and it has, a money sign rather than the amount of the money. So technically it's not even a to-y. It's a somethingy.
Starting point is 00:29:07 You know what? When you want to get something manufactured poorly, whether it's fake money or a virus, you go to China. All right? So this guy gets a bunch of shitty coins made to come over here, and they're mad because he is adding completely
Starting point is 00:29:29 valueless currency to our monetary system, which is debasing it and devaluing it and throwing it into upheaval because it's very important for us to not debase our valueless currency and throw it into upheaval. Is there anybody else maybe we want to indict for similar issues? I can think of a few. Her name is Sony. Sony has announced that is pulling online shooter Concord from sale just two weeks after its launch. The multiplayer title was released exclusively for PlayStation 5 and PC on August 23rd, but has reportedly struggled. That's an understatement to attract players.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Anyone who bought the E40 game will receive a full refund. Have you ever heard of this ever happening? I'm sure. No. Like, no, this is, this is unheard of, right? Yeah. Okay. There's been a few games that get abandoned over the years.
Starting point is 00:30:30 They call it abandonware. But have you ever bought a game and got your money? back because it was so bad? So there was something like that with the SIV Beyond Earth had a very poor launch and they read off the bat like there was nobody could play it. They're like I paid for it. I downloaded it and I can't even play the damn thing.
Starting point is 00:30:53 And those of you who didn't want to wait it out eventually got their money back. But by that time it was so poorly received that they didn't even do an expansion. When was the last time Sid, Weir did a game that didn't have an expansion that tells you how bad it was. And so anyway, but this is- Go back to this. Well, this one, according to websites, so you can see, for people listening, it's a trend of how many people are playing this game at a time.
Starting point is 00:31:17 And it says, according to website, SteamDB, which tracks the number of people playing games on the PC platform, Concord's highest number of concurrent users was 660. Hoosges agrees. Yes. So the highest number of people playing this online. first person shooter ever in the entire history of the game was 660 people. Which you can't even like, what, are you going to have just like everybody in there on one free for all?
Starting point is 00:31:49 Like it, that's like three maps worth of people. Thing about it was was that it was all DEI stuff. It was trying to be as woke as possible. And like they specifically said at one point, racist bigotry won again. Are you happy? Are you satisfied? Does your day feel that little bit better knowing a great developer compromise of hardworking folks is going to likely be shut down over this? All because you can't whack off to ugly character designs and cry about woke games all the time. Get the memo.
Starting point is 00:32:20 This game wasn't for you in the first place. Now a decent shooter with fresh ideas in a boring F2P market is going to die. Does that make you happy? You're what's wrong with this industry. And because of you, Sony might see this and think PC isn't worth investing their money. for future games hope you're satisfied okay if the game isn't for you why are you mad that you didn't buy it if the game's for you you should have bought it if the game's not for you they shouldn't have been expecting you to buy it this thing was delayed by eight years it cost
Starting point is 00:32:50 150 million dollars to make and here's the thing about it is with first person shooters do you remember um you had uh oh shoot um in in gold in Golden Eye. Golden Eye. You had oddball, odd job, odd job, and then there was the giant Jaws, right? Nobody ever played Jaws because he was way too big and he was too easy to hit.
Starting point is 00:33:19 Correct. And it was, nobody was allowed to play. You're going back to the great days of, nobody, nobody, whenever you were doing the four screen multiplayer, nobody was allowed to be odd job because he was so much smaller than the other ones. And he was almost a hard job. Yeah, it's almost impossible to kill. So if you're trying to make a woke first person shooter,
Starting point is 00:33:40 the last thing you want to have is some body positivity character that's going to be a giant fucking billboard for people to shoot at. You're saying a high-calorie human being? Is that what you're saying? Yeah. You don't want to play as a high-calorie human being. You want to play as Celine Dion who just got out of a fucking concentration camp. You want someone that's going to be impossible to.
Starting point is 00:34:04 hit. This is the exact opposite. Nazis and the liberals of the week. A list of 900 alleged Nazi war criminals who fled to Canada could remain secret as federal officials come under increasing pressure to censor the records because they could prove embarrassing to this country.
Starting point is 00:34:24 Some of the individuals and organizations consulted by library and archives Canada argued against releasing any of the information warning it could be embarrassing or lead to prosecutions of alleged war criminals. Other stakeholders who advised the L.A. worried the list could embarrass Canada
Starting point is 00:34:39 as a Ukrainian community or be used by Russians for propaganda purposes. The library and archives can that had hoped to release information to the public between September 16th and September 20th, but how many names of the alleged Nazi war criminals will actually be
Starting point is 00:34:55 made public is not yet known. We don't want to release the name of Holocaust World War II war criminals, which I get the fact that there aren't really any good wars. But this was
Starting point is 00:35:11 kind of a bad one. As far as even for wars. And we don't want to release the names because it will lead to people being prosecuted for them. So that means there's still some fucking Nazis, still like actual Nazis,
Starting point is 00:35:28 still alive in Canada. Like the one they put in part of them? You know what? Instead of releasing the names, let's just send them all the Ottawa and we can all clap like idiot seals for them for a while. We don't want to release the names because it's going to be embarrassing for Canada. Well, you know what? As far as embarrassment over World War II goes, Canada sits pretty nice.
Starting point is 00:35:51 Canada did a pretty good job in places like the Netherlands in Normandy. And so for us to be like, okay, well, yeah, you know what? This kind of happened afterwards and it was a mistake and we're sorry. People would be like, okay, well, you still came out ahead in the exchange. And in the meantime, that fucker that's still alive that killed a bunch of Jews, we're going to try him now. There's no doubt. I mean, just go read, just go read Project Paperclip and realize that we're not alone in the fact that a bunch of Nazis fled Germany and went to different countries. And a country to the south of us brought a whole bunch of them in to work in their programs, right?
Starting point is 00:36:32 And I mean, and once again, the U.S. isn't alone in that. lots of countries around the world. Anytime you're trying to hide things from the public, it just, I can't, you know. Yep. Worst PM of all time throwdown. Here you go. Here's the list.
Starting point is 00:36:51 Here's the polls. Two's favorite polls. Who has been a Canada's worst prime minister since 1968? Justin Trudeau at 38%. Harper at 14%. The other Trudeau at 7%. And then a whole bunch of others at varying percentages, is unsure is 21%.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I mean, okay. Okay. Who do you think is the worst prime minister of all time? You're asking me? Yes. Justin Trudeau. Wrong. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:22 You're super fucking wrong, Sean. In fact, you're so wrong that I made a slideshow about it. I knew you were going to say that. This is awesome. I was really hoping that this was going to go. how I had wanted it to. So, why is Sean wrong? A PowerPoint presentation.
Starting point is 00:37:44 Here's the thing, is you've got Pierre Trudeau's legacy of all of the bad shit he did and Justin Trudeau's legacy, all the bad shit he did. This is a Venn diagram. This is page one of the Venn diagram. Now, here's the thing,
Starting point is 00:38:00 is if Pierre Trudeau had never been prime minister, would Justin have been prime minister? The answer is no. Absolutely fucking not. A part-time snowboard instructor who's been fired from a few teaching jobs does not walk in to being prime minister. He's there because of the name brand neck recognition
Starting point is 00:38:22 of his stepfather. So you can reasonably conclude that Pierre's legacy is the bad shit he did and also inside that circle, every bad thing that Trudeau did. So, by the way, I've got this, I can't even see what I'm doing right now. Oh, shoot. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:46 All right. You know, most people would walk through this and make sure they can get it right. I did. I did. But you know what's happening here? Tuesday is right. That's what his big punchline is. No.
Starting point is 00:38:59 No, there's several, there's several conclusions. draw here. It's plural, Sean. But let's list them off. First off, twos is right. Two's one. Quit arguing with twos. And the Oilers suck. Thank you. Choose is an idiot. That's what I think. Toos is an idiot. All right. What do you got for me next? What do you got for me next? Okay. The other thing I want to say is that Kim Campbell is the best prime minister we've ever had. she was literally in office for like
Starting point is 00:39:34 was it a year 63 days yeah best prime minister we've ever had all right then all right then they all suck they've all made things worse she by a wide margin spent the least amount of time
Starting point is 00:39:54 making things worse than everybody else even with Trudeau in all his fucking vacation days he still did more work than Kim Campbell did. Kevin, easy. Easy there. Let's just push a little back. Why Sean is wrong is the hot news segment on the mashup.
Starting point is 00:40:13 And we got laughing emojis, a PowerPoint of why Sean is wrong. I like it. Everybody likes that. Everybody's enjoying that, are they? All right. Government hates frogs, government croaks. So, newly released documents reveal the government agency spent four years and 10,000 just to kill one bullfrog.
Starting point is 00:40:37 The whole love coming in for twos right now. You all need to stop, okay? This is going to inflate his head. And then you know who's going to have to deal with it? This guy. Uncovered Thursday by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, the documents outlined a costly initiative to eliminate invasive American bullfrog populations
Starting point is 00:40:54 in Gulf Island National Park on the southern coast of British Columbia, which only managed to cull a total of one frog. Not quite exactly. The program managed to kill 100 of a bird. the frogs in 2023, 2024 fiscal year to cost of $5,000 bucks. In all, it costs parks can to croak
Starting point is 00:41:11 101 frogs. Yeah. Now, these are these fucking things. So granted, your ammunition cost is going to be high. That's a big frog. Because you're not going to be able to shoot that with a 22 or even a 30, 30. You've got to
Starting point is 00:41:27 go pretty high caliber with that fucker. It got introduced to try and have a frog leg. market and things went wrong. Kevin, not since Kermit signed with Disney, has there been a frog so expensive. Well, you know what? We just talked about it two minutes ago. I would say Justin Trudeau is a slightly more expensive frog. The buster was so loud. Whoops. Somebody somewhere is driving. What is that? Wiretaps are racist. The Ottawa police secretly wire to have five of its
Starting point is 00:42:07 small officers and their family members for months never laid any charges and refuses to tell them why alleges a $2.5 million lawsuit filed by the officers. So, this whole story is a little bit fucky because I mean, it gets presented as racism.
Starting point is 00:42:24 But even within the article, CBC of all fucking places admits that the officers, some who have loose family connections to alleged criminals, and then they go into that later on. where they say gang affiliated cousins. Okay, so you're bringing on a bunch of new cousins and I'm a frenzy,
Starting point is 00:42:43 which is what was happening at the time, where they're specifically focusing on diversity applicants. So they're fast-tracking diversity applicants. And these guys get in and then they're like, okay, well, they've got a bunch of relatives who are in organized crime. And so they put a two-month wiretap on each one of them and then, you know, make sure things were on the up and up. and that was the end of it.
Starting point is 00:43:06 But the other thing they talked about was all this discrimination that they faced and how people told them that they were just there as diversity hires when they literally were hired as diversity hires and that they got a lot of blowback from within the department because they're like, how did you even get in?
Starting point is 00:43:23 Like they're not even taking white people in right now, but they took you in. And so it's one of the dark flip sides of the coin with DEI hires is that when you hire people specifically to fill a quota, it's probably going to come up around the water cooler every once in a while. And there was this guy, a cop who got suspended a while back for making this meme that he sent around to his cop buddies.
Starting point is 00:43:49 And it's got a picture of a whole bunch of people of color. And it says, Ottawa police service. We're always hiring anyone. Am I, am I the, like, when I saw that, I was like, what a dumb thing to do. Well, it's obviously a very career limiting move. Although I will say in that guy's defense, about half of those people in that picture ended up going under investigations or we'll let go or were convicted of a bunch of weird shit. In fairness, he managed to, he managed to fill it with a few random people and about half of them ended up being corrupt as fuck. It's still a stupid thing to do.
Starting point is 00:44:30 I don't care. I don't care who you are. Like you can justify it all you want. I'm not justifying it. I'm saying you are justifying. Well, you know, a bunch of them got, what do you call that? That is justifying it. All right.
Starting point is 00:44:44 What I am saying here is that when you have a whole bunch of DEI initiatives and all you care about is checking boxes, there's going to be some people who push back. Does it need to be like that? No. But you are going to get a lot of people and you're going to face career hurdles for those people. And a lot of other things where they're like, you're only here to check a fucking box. We're here to work.
Starting point is 00:45:08 I've got a buddy who couldn't get hired on here, even though he's super qualified because he's not black enough. And you're going to have issues with this. You're not wrong. You're going to have issues. I will agree with that. But like, I don't know. I was reading the story.
Starting point is 00:45:23 And it's not like they were all moved into the country, you know, because when I first looked at, I'm like, oh, did they just move into the country in the first six months and on their cops. No, all these guys by my eyes, and I could be pointed wrong on this, have been in the country for a long time. And lots of them have been cops for longer than a couple of years.
Starting point is 00:45:43 And so, you know, they investigated them because it ties, it looks like, to family members that have. I would want to know, like, sure. So then they're not, if you were a cop. Yeah, but they're not giving them the information.
Starting point is 00:45:56 They're saying, well, there's nothing to tell. Well, but that's exactly it. It's like, all right, so, you know what? Harrow, unscrupulous, just absolutely cold-blooded killer, right? If you were a cop and your brother Harle, who's very well-established criminal, you'd be like, all right, well, you know what? We just realized that despite the fact that Newman's a common name, they actually are related.
Starting point is 00:46:22 So let's just throw a wiretap on Sean for a couple months and make sure that everything's on the up and up. Okay, cool. Fair enough. Didn't find anything done. and that was it. But then they're like, well, how, why would you? It's, it's because, it's because we're black that you did this. No, it's because your cousin's a fucking gun runner.
Starting point is 00:46:46 EV Gong show of the week. Volkswagen announcement on Monday said that it consider, it is considering closing factories in Germany is unprecedented in the German automakers 87 year history to make matters even worse for the 680,000 FW employees worldwide. The management also feels forced to end its job security program, which would be put in place since 1994 and prevents job cuts until 2029. In a letter to employees on Monday, VW brand chief Thomas Schaefer described the situation as extremely tense and beyond the scope of simple cost-cutting measures. Also, BMW has recently announced a recall of its Mini Cooper SE 2020,
Starting point is 00:47:27 a 2024 electric vehicle due to concerns over potential battery defects. Yes. And Volkswagen, by the way, had their, their vehicles are part of the zero emission EV rebate program with the Canadian government. Volvo is reversing their plans to sell only electric vehicles by 2030 as demand fails. And then CBC. Oh, shoot, no, this is, we got it listed as a separate one. We'll get to that. Anyway, the point is that the EV markets fall apart about as quick as EVs. Have you written in the hybrid though yet?
Starting point is 00:48:09 Like the new ones, like the diesel EV, like it's Edison Motors, you know, like Jason, the guy that we had on the show to talk about it? No, I'm completely unfamiliar with it. Tell me more. No, I'm not talking about it like the idea he talked about, but I was just in a Ford that is, it's, it's a great idea. It's whenever you see a truck. running down those tracks of which there are only two in this country.
Starting point is 00:48:35 If you happen to be next to either one, it's, it's electric over diesel. They've got these huge diesel engines that run electric generators and the motors on those trains are electric. Yes. I'm just saying, yeah,
Starting point is 00:48:53 you get it. There's good solutions out there. It's just that we're not interested in bailing those out, probably because they don't need it. why twos hates the CBC proponents believe the kid who rides e buses go up calmer
Starting point is 00:49:12 and more focused for school US data link test scores to diesel fumes backs them up but so far only 2% of Canadian school buses offer students this advantage e-school buses are cheaper to operate and can pay for themselves over the long run
Starting point is 00:49:27 but their initial price tag is double what diesel replacements cost the short-term contracts Actually, it's a triple, but yeah. I don't know. I'm reading what I would say. Okay. At another point, it said triple. A classic CBC.
Starting point is 00:49:40 You're right. I went back in the article and I've raised double and I just, or I've reached triple, I put double just to screw it to see if you was reading this article. There's a different part where it says triple, but continue. Oh, man. This is why I hate the BBC. Service across Canada don't always provide incentives for longer term change without government subsidies. at the end of the day
Starting point is 00:50:02 It's exactly it. It's basically this whole article is the reason why we don't have more electric school buses is because the government isn't buying them for us. If you ever see like the handy buses driving around town or whatever else, they'll always say on the back,
Starting point is 00:50:18 donated by such and such, donated by such and such. If you believe in electronic vehicles, that strongly, there's nothing stopping you from buying one of those buses or getting together with a few of your friends. and buying one of those buses, and you get to have your name on the back of it.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Why does it always have to be the government bailing it out? But Dard and his team are motivated to deliver technology that helps kids, not to mention the planet, they're increasingly anxious about inheriting. It's because of shit like this. And the whole time, this whole article is them saying, there isn't enough funding. There isn't enough funding.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Not, can we make them better? Are they better? Are there better alternatives? Like could Edison Motors make a fucking great bus that would solve these problems? I bet you they could. But none of that. It's the most one-sided bullshit pushing an agenda that you could ever imagine. Oh, and then also they were complaining about how the guy who owns the EV bus manufacturing place was forced to lay off over 700 people because he wasn't getting enough bailouts from the government.
Starting point is 00:51:29 as the kids say put chase on the case yeah BC election update I'm that's going to bring up the tweet here here okay here's MP Julian MP for new Westminster Burnaby NDP House leader NDP health critic he says
Starting point is 00:51:49 extremist freedom convoy had as a goal the overthrow of the elected Democratic government some members receive criminal convictions and have been charged with weapons violations and inspiring to murder police officers. Their extremism, harm family, seniors, PWD,
Starting point is 00:52:06 shame on. Shame on Rustad. This coming from a new freedom convoy donor list includes the names of several candidates on John Rustad's BC Conservatives. If you didn't like the BC Conservatives at this point, I think this has you. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:52:24 And then you've got press progress, who is an absolute socialist mouth, piece. They're every bit as biased as we are, but without any facts to back them up. And then Peter Julian from the NDP, and they're talking about this. They're spreading awareness of this. They're helping the BC Conservative Party get elected. They're just not smart enough to realize it. I don't know if I've ever mentioned this before, but the NDP are not a serious party.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Like, oh, these guys, can you believe? Did you know that these guys donated to the Freedom Convoy? Well, I'm already sold on the idea. You don't have to sell me anymore. Influencers of note, how about we start with Miss Annily? Is that where we should start? Yeah. So this is, this is, she's quoting.
Starting point is 00:53:21 Oh, and it's, of course, now I can't see the bloody thing. But Matthew Johnston had a tweet basically in, endorsing Justin Trudeau. Matthew Johnston is consistently just putting out these bullshit, nothing burger platitudes about how great Trudeau is. And it's kind of a weird thing. And it's a little bit baffling. And then continue.
Starting point is 00:53:46 Well, she points out that, as you can see on the screen, $90,000, $90,000, September 1, 2019 was a postdoctoral fellowship, support the most promising Canadian news scholars and the social sciences and humanities and assist them in establishing a research base at an important time in their research careers. He got money from the government. Oh, he got $90,000 from the liberals.
Starting point is 00:54:11 And he spends a lot of his time tweeting about how awesome they are. This is the one where she replied to. He says, I am a parent of three wonderful young children. They probably are assholes. And I want them to have the best start in life. I want my kids to hear a positive. I'm sure his children are fine, you jack.
Starting point is 00:54:32 Government. Inbred fucks. I want my kids to know the real difference it makes when we work together. We don't condone attacking children, you ass. Stick to the facts. Stick to the script. Stick to the tweet that the moron is making. Dear God.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Anyway, this is just a sample of how he does this all the time. And then Andy Lee realized, well, what if I just looked his name up and saw if he got any free government money. Oh, it turns out he got $90,000. So the next time you're like, well, why does this Matthew Johnston always want to talk about how great Trudeau is? It's because he bought him a new fucking pool. And then the second one is Greg Wycliffe. He says CTV news used to, he used to tell the truth. And it was, uh, it was, uh, it was, one of the headlines was meet Mr. Pooh. Unif's new mask. an anti-public defecation campaign.
Starting point is 00:55:30 It was talking about India. And it's trying to get it's, this is the UNICEF put out this program in 2014 to try and get people to shit out in the streets and out in the open less frequently. And so they made this mascot, which was a big fucking turd. And it was going around telling kids how much poop stinks
Starting point is 00:55:54 and like look closely at this picture. You have a mascot shit holding out a smaller shit to a bunch of East Indian-looking animated children on a park bench, and they're holding their nose about how stinky it is. This is literally something Yudisep did a decade ago. But now it's apparently racist for people to point out that it's not a great idea. India is home to the world's largest population of people who defecate in the open. about half the country's population, 620 million people
Starting point is 00:56:27 don't regularly use toilets. The charity says, answering the call of nature wherever they are. Steelworker, verse, verse, this,
Starting point is 00:56:41 verse pudding grifter. Verses. The word you're looking for is versus. Verses, sure. Toos, show the video. Okay. How did that end up in the middle? All right.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Here is the video. Here's Justin. go. Let's over here if you want to thank you for your heart. I can bring some for my kids here. The 25% tariff we just brought in on Chinese skills and help you out. That's going to keep my job, yeah. What about the 40% tax is in pain and I don't have a doctor?
Starting point is 00:57:14 The $400 million in the investment in the car means you can have a job for many years. I think you're only here for another year. We won't see around probably another year. That's what elections are for. That's right. That's right. And I look forward to everyone exercise to the right to vote. Yeah. basic choice. We're going to invest in you in your job. I don't believe you for a second.
Starting point is 00:57:34 Dental care? Do you know anyone who got dental care? Yeah, I pay for myself. Okay. We're like three years behind. Yeah, four people in my family. Every time we go for a dental visit, it's cost to be about $50 in my pocket per person. Why? I have a good job. You're not really doing anything for us, Justin. Actually, we just invest it. So half a million people haven't been to the dentist. We've got to go to the dentist. Probably. like my neighbor that doesn't go to work because she's lazy. You know what? She doesn't go to work.
Starting point is 00:58:03 She lives the same way by you. Good luck and you can't pay you for each other. All right. Have nice day. Have a good day, sir. All right. So the best parts of that, granted all of it's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:58:17 But the best parts about dental care. Where when he's like, well, you're only going to be here for another year. That was beauty. And then, is he an undercover plan fuck no no but that didn't stop the conspiracy theorist is he this guy two's no look at look at the picture so for those of you playing along at home you have a lot of very rabid upset people and here's the thing you can always tell when something's over the
Starting point is 00:58:51 target with the liberals so if something if somebody who's conservative gets outed as being really atypical of the group. They get kicked out. It's like a body fighting an infection. $16 orange juice, you don't fucking work here anymore. But when it's a cult, the leader is always to be protected at any cost.
Starting point is 00:59:16 And we will say as many crazy ass bat shit fucking loony things as possible. And so you have these online conspiracy theories, like the irate employee in the video refusing a donut from PMJT and trash talking to him is James Oakley, leader of mobilized media, storytellers who try to influence public opinion and rally change. Connect the dot, folks. He was a plant. So it turned out the steel worker getting snoddy with Trudeau was not a steelworker at all, but actually a conservative staffer named Jeff Ballingall.
Starting point is 00:59:51 It was a photo bomb stunt. I dealt with photo bombing operatives when I worked for PPC. even Jeremy McKenzie did it. I don't think so. But it's the same thing when we talked about the Apple sticker over top of the HP logo on the laptop. Everybody got super fucking mad about that because it's exactly what Justin Trudeau is, which is a fucking phony. And here he's saying like, oh, we're working for everybody. Everybody can relate to us.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Oh, I'm going to go up and talk to this regular average. everyday dude and he has a lot of salient points to make about how Trudeau is full of shit. And that's why the left lost their minds. And the reaction to this, I would say, was even better than the video of it. The Senate unravels. Okay. I got to scroll here. I got to find.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Okay. Here we go. Okay. So you had Charles Adler. What was that? A couple weeks ago now? I think it was a couple weeks ago. And here's Kirk Lubamoff, saying, if appointing Charles Adler to the Senate wasn't appalling and disgraceful enough,
Starting point is 01:01:06 today Justin Trudeau appointed two more independent senators from Alberta. This time, Darrell Frid Handler, a Liberal Party supporter who has donated to them for decades, and Dr. Christopher Wells, an activist, and probably most people remember him from Pride Tape, right? Like, I think that's, that's like, if you saw, you know, if you're like, I don't know, that name. Why would I know that name? Well, if you're an oilers fan, you know all about this. He's the Pride tape. No, no, no. You just know the Pride tape guy. That's all you know. Yeah, yeah. And he
Starting point is 01:01:36 was really prominent with the Oilers. And he put you guys on the map as far as the Gay Pride stuff. Remember they talked about the Pride Tunnel, which is, you know, another word for butt. And the Gay Pride hockey tape, which ends up with black streaks
Starting point is 01:01:53 on it, just like the crosswalks. And this was this guy's brainchild. That was what he did. I want to bring up Marty Up North's tweet too. Oops, there it is. I don't know if I knew this or didn't know this, but I thought this was important to just bring up. Marty Up North put out,
Starting point is 01:02:14 Alberta has a process whereby we elect our own Senate nominees. We're the only Canadian province to hold elections for nominees to be appointed to the Senate of Canada. We've been doing it since the end of the 1980s. We understand these elections are non-binding as the appointment of senators is solely the responsibility of governor of general of Canada and on the advice of prime minister. So if I understand that correctly, we do election for this. So we would say, if you're going to name a senator, please pick this guy. Yeah, pick, pick, pick the ones that we've got there, which is there's three sitting there off of Marty's tweet, right?
Starting point is 01:02:48 Right, right there. One, two, three. And they're guaranteed not going to get the nod. Instead, you've got guys like this independent senator, not the gay pride one, but the other one who in his history was, so if he forgot to take down all of his info off of his law firm after he got nominated as a senator. You guys, guys, if you're going to get nominated as a senator by the liberals, you got to do a media sweep. You got to clean this stupid shit off. Don't give them any hints tos. This is, okay.
Starting point is 01:03:23 So this is from the guy's own website. that he was vice chair of revenue for the Liberal Party of Canada and National Chairman of the Lauriery Club, 2004 to 2006, and Alberta Revenue Chair 2010-to-13, Alberta Leadership Campaign co-chair for Paul Martin and Michael Ignatiaf in 2003, 2006, you can keep going. All you're pointing out is there's evidence,
Starting point is 01:03:46 like on both the, like it's, they're on independent. There's about seven points there. I know. It's very clear. Over the course of them, he's donated about $80,000. to the Liberal Party, uh, provincially and federally.
Starting point is 01:04:01 That's all people need to know. Our Senate is getting, you know, I think it's, it's, it's fucking smart is 3D chess. Honestly, there's,
Starting point is 01:04:09 there's like, so Trudeau gets in power 10 years ago. You say, well, you know what? This Senate gig, it's nice. I'd love to get it.
Starting point is 01:04:16 But I'm just a regular helper. What can I do? Well, you donate a shit ton of money to the liberals and you do the gayest shit you could possibly think of. And you're the only one. in the province that does any of it, you're guaranteed to get the Senate appointment.
Starting point is 01:04:30 And the other thing about this is that they announced this over the long weekend, over the Labor Day long weekend. Just to quietly put it out there to not have a big fuss and miss the news cycle. Do you have any idea how hard
Starting point is 01:04:45 it is for a politician to go that far out of their way that they're doing work on a stat holiday weekend? We can't even get Trudeau to show up half the fucking time during the work week and he does this on the long weekend. That's how bad they knew it was. Trudeau's happy accident. Happy accident.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Okay. I actually don't, what are you talking about here? Are you talking about? We're talking about can. Canola. Okay, okay, fair enough. As cannes canola farmers, okay. As Canada's canola farmers brace for potential impact from China's new anti-dumping investigation
Starting point is 01:05:30 in the Canadian coal canola imports. A new report from an international credit rating agency suggests the move could lead to a billion dollar hit for the country and its supply chain. The announcement of the investigation Tuesday came after Ottawa moved to impose tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles following the lead of both the US and the European Union. That 100% tariff was put on Chinese EB imports along with a 25% tariff on imported steel and aluminum from China.
Starting point is 01:05:56 In 2023, the report notes Canada exported close to $5 billion. worth of canola products to China, citing Chinese customs data showing that more than 90% of the country's canola product imports last year were from Canada. Interesting things to note. First off, Chinese manufacturing sucks. There's no way I'm remotely interested in getting into a vehicle made in fucking China and driving 110 kilometers down the fucking highway in it. That's a death wish waiting to happen. So you don't even really need to worry about putting extra tariffs on Chinese vehicles. Their reputation speaks for themselves.
Starting point is 01:06:36 Remember the tunis we talked about half an hour ago? Same fucking thing, but at a high speed. Second thing, so Trudeau puts out a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs because he needs to protect all of the jobs that he has subsidized the shit out of in Ontario. And then, unfortunate, unforeseen circumstances, China responds by putting a giant tariff on canola oil or canola exports.
Starting point is 01:07:04 So now, not only does Trudeau in an effort to protect jobs in Ontario, he's also managed to screw over the farmers in Western Canada. This is a perfect, do, do, do, do, do, too, too, just happy accident, happy accident. He is probably over the moon about how wonderfully this worked out, and how he wished he could have planned it. So vindication, if you've been waiting for another article, here we go. Okay, here is Yaxdack. He says, well, actually he's quoting by January 11th,
Starting point is 01:07:41 2021, the Amity Police Service had briefing notes, warning them to stagger vaccinations as to not completely wipe out entire squads, specific to the second dose, where there was a higher likelihood of side effects following the jabs for 24 hours. As you can see down in red. Oh, higher likelihood of side effects. I mean, we got told that didn't happen, but fair enough, fair enough. I mean, it almost seems as though, as all these documents are being released, we were right all along.
Starting point is 01:08:13 I mean, that's why we got co-vindication, right? Goofy News, the working title. We're still looking for submissions on goofy news, what you would like. Text them, DMs, comments, whatever you got for the goofy news. Here you go. Here's two for this week. Delta flight from Boston or Rome diverted after diarrhea disaster
Starting point is 01:08:33 and four years ago, a valley man started giving up free water. Now he's facing hundreds of dollars and fines from his HOA, so his housing association. He literally had a cooler with bottles of water and anyone could come grab one, and he's now facing a fine for doing that act of kindness.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Yep, no good deed goes unpunished for both articles, I guess. actual Russian interference. I, Tuesday, I, I was weird. Right. I,
Starting point is 01:09:09 okay. So where do you want to start? Like how do you like I can, all right. So apparently some Russian company created this fake person who was donating to tenant media, which has,
Starting point is 01:09:26 it works with a bunch of the prominent conservative voices. and gives them funding and works with them. And it turns out that person... We're talking about the U.S. here. So we're talking... Well, most of the U.S. Laura Southern as well, right? Sure.
Starting point is 01:09:42 So Dave Rubin is one that's commented on it. Tim Pools, another that's commented on it. I mean, everybody's commented on it now. But it's just so people have a clear idea of who we're talking about. Yeah. So this sounds like the Bueller report from 8. years ago where there was just a whole bunch of stuff about Trump and collusion and working with Russia that ended up being absolute bullshit.
Starting point is 01:10:09 It sounds like they're doing the same thing, but trying to discredit the people who are speaking truth to, to the powers in the states. The interesting thing about it, though, is that, I mean, this is all very early, right? But it seems as though there's at least a hint of truth to it, because Dave, Rubin says these allegations clearly show that I and other commentators were victims of this scheme. I knew absolutely anything or I knew absolutely nothing about any of this fraudulent activity, period. People of the internet was a silly show covering viral videos which ended four months ago.
Starting point is 01:10:48 I don't know what that's about. The DOJ has never contacted me regarding this matter and I have no intention to comment further. That's not really the kind of thing you say when it's like, oh, this is just a spear. there was money well there was money I the way I read the the report and honest like I'm reading this I'm trying I'm trying to I was trying to find more information on it and the way I read it I could be wrong is that a fictional person was given was giving money to a media company and that media company was funding people and what Tim Poole basically said here I'll read his statement his statement regarding allegations and the DOJ indictment.
Starting point is 01:11:33 Should these allegations prove true, I as well as the other personalities and commentators, were deceived in our victims. I cannot speak for anyone else at the company as to what they do or to what they are instructed. The Culture War podcast was licensed by Tenet Media. It existed well before any license agreement with Tenet, and it will continue to exist after any such agreement expires.
Starting point is 01:11:53 The only change with agreement was that the location of the live broadcast moved to Tenet's YouTube channel. I and TCW never produced any content for tenant media. Never at any point did any other than I have full editorial control of the show and the contents of the show are often apolitical examples, including discussing spirituality, dating, and video games. The show is produced in its entirety by our local team without input from anyone external to the company. TCW is a separate company not associated with the Timcast and other properties.
Starting point is 01:12:24 It exists solely for the production of the Culture War podcast. That being said, we still do not know what is true or as these are only allegations. Putin is a scumbag, Russia sucks, donkey balls, and to the journalists who wish to jump the gun, create their own narrative or lie about what is currently going on. You can eat my Irish ass. That's Tim Poole. So you get the, like, I guess what we're pointing out, what it looks like is there was funding to their shows. And what they're pointing out is they had no idea. You know, their popular shows, so money coming in isn't that strange.
Starting point is 01:12:59 And what they're trying to say is it never changed the theme or the aim of what their podcast was before or after the funding came in. Am I wrong on that, too? That's basically it. Now, maybe there's truth to it. Maybe it's all Mueller report all over again. But it's interesting and it's something to keep watching as it unfolds, I think. Yes. Jeeps really can go anywhere.
Starting point is 01:13:25 You're going to pull up this video, right? Or should I pull this video? Oh, no, I don't, I don't think there's any reason to watch this video. This video is absolutely goddamn insane, Sean. Okay, so 24-year-old... Keep talking. 24-year-old Graham. Ramon Preating from Bram is facing half a dozen charges after driving
Starting point is 01:13:49 attempted to drive police cruisers and Mississauga. Yeah, he literally tries to go full fucking bat, with this Jeep. He's in the drive-through of Tim Hortons, which I mean, Chuck, Jamie, they'd be the first ones to tell you that you've got to be able to plan an escape and that you should be leery of things like this
Starting point is 01:14:08 that you can get boxed in at. And so, yeah, he tries to just go right over top, almost gets it, just can't quite stick the landing, and then he gets hung up on the top of two cop cars, and then tries backing up, and then he gets totally squirled on the, hood of one and then another cop car comes in the back and and boxes them off and you can actually see in a different somebody had a picture of it from another angle and there was a car behind it
Starting point is 01:14:37 that the hood was all smashed up so presumably before this video started he had tried to back up out of there so yeah uh it's it's why yeah yeah this is a guy just trying to go full batmobile over a bunch of cop cars and uh almost makes it almost makes it almost makes it Like, if he had, could you imagine the conversation at Jeep the next day? Be like, look, can we talk about this? Can we just make sure that we don't want to use this as marketing material? Like, buy a Jeep, you can go anywhere. And then just have this, this CC camera footage of this Jeep driving over a bunch of cop cars and making a getaway.
Starting point is 01:15:20 Be like, only use it for legal stuff, but realize also that it's, capable of doing more. Trudeau no longer gay enough. LGBQ2SLAA activists say Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's pledged to remain the liberal leader through the next election despite dwindling public support is putting them at risk. Queer advocates say a conservative government led by Pierre Pollyab would be dangerous for the LGBTQSLAA plus communities and some are calling on Trudeau to step aside to give the liberals a better chance at winning the next election. Yeah, she points to Polyev's comments saying that minors should not have access to puberty blockers
Starting point is 01:16:05 which stop calling them puberty blockers. They're sterilization medication. And transgender athletes should be barred from women's sports and changing rooms. What a controversial opinion. Regular-ass gay people don't want to go into women's change rooms. You know who does?
Starting point is 01:16:29 sexual predators. That's it. So anyway, they want Trudeau to step down because if Pollyev leaves, they're not going to get to explain it. You don't need to explain it. I mean, it's... He's not gay enough for them anymore.
Starting point is 01:16:44 It's pretty self-explanatory. The NDP are not a serious party. I look forward to this bit. Jagmeet's tweet. I think everybody saw it. The deal is done. The liberals are too weak, too selfish, to beholding to the corporate interest to stop the conservatives
Starting point is 01:16:58 and their plans to cut. But the NDP can win. Well, I actually doesn't say that. Then anyways. Yeah. Now, just look at this. This is his post saying that he's backing out of the supply and bullshit agreement he had with the liberals, supplying confidence. 5.5,000 likes.
Starting point is 01:17:18 8,000 comments. He got ratioed on his announcement that he's no longer supporting the liberals. And he got absolutely eviscerated. I don't even know if I should show. any of this. But he's dumb enough to go and talk to Vasi Capulose, who has been consistently lately, the voice of reason in mainstream media. Yes. He's doing a very good job of pointing out politicians' inconsistencies. And so this is a four and a half minute video. Go check it out. He adds, he gets fucking just scorched earth.
Starting point is 01:18:00 she does a great job of pointing out the fact that he's a hypocritical piece of shit and giving him an opportunity to answer every point along the way, which he fails to do. And then here's a picture. Get in loser. We're going nowhere. Jagmeet Singh behind the wheel. And then I think that's Matthew Green beside him. It's great.
Starting point is 01:18:26 It's wonderful. It's got all of them on their heels. You know the thing that really bugs me about it, though? I had an epiphany. none of these pundits are talking about what this means for Canadians. How is it going to affect the people that he's paid to represent, the people in Richmond Hill, BC? At what point does this become a good thing for your constituents?
Starting point is 01:18:50 All of these talking heads, and I'm guilty of this too, generally, but all these talking heads are just talking about it like it's moves on a chessboard. and they're forgetting the fact that their job isn't to make the right moves on a chess board. It's to do their best to represent the interests of the people they're paid to represent. I hear you. I go, you know, I think the sentiment when he first released the video by a lot of people is, oh, we're going to have an election. But the more I listen to Vasi, the more I just back out of saying,
Starting point is 01:19:30 you're right no matter what. That's why you've got to go listen to Vasi talk to him because he's saying, you know, we'll pick and choose if we're going to support the liberals, which means we're not having a fucking broke and they can't afford it. And also, if he does call an early election, Justin Trudeau is going to freeze his fucking bank account
Starting point is 01:19:48 and a bunch of horses are going to stomp on him. Happy news. Do we have any happy news this week? Yeah, we do. Is this one of them? I can't find it. Oh, here it is. No, that's for the community events.
Starting point is 01:20:07 Oh, well. Brad Paisley expands mission to fight hunger with second free grocery store. Country music star Brad Paisley and his wife Kimberly have announced the exciting launch of a second location for their non-profit, the store, a free grocery store designed to support local food insecure families. So everybody's talking about how like, you know what, the government needs to do this. The government needs to solve this. If it's a cause you believe in, you can do shit like this. there's nothing stopping you from saying this is something that I support and take personally seriously and I want to try and make a difference.
Starting point is 01:20:44 And so there's Brad Paisley and his wife and a couple fucking suits in front of the store they just opened and good for them. That is pretty cool. I'd love to know more about that, honestly. That, you know, why don't you have a little to pull that off? Be like, hey, Brad, you know, Paul Brand got me in touch with you. and believe me, I've been trying to get John Rich on the show for like three weeks now, four weeks since he went on Tucker Carlson.
Starting point is 01:21:11 Since he went on Tucker Carlson? How about like a year ago when I told you you should have John Rich on the show? You know what's funny? Every time I bring up, I told you to do something. Okay, does. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 01:21:24 I'm really looking forward to the interview with Vesper. That's going to be good. That guy is very well-spoken. Monday. Monday that comes out. Okay. So there. And then we got, oh, sorry, I clicked on the wrong button.
Starting point is 01:21:38 I mean, I'm not super, I'm not super sorry, but I'm a little bit sorry. Get this guy out of here. All right. Community notes. Community notes. All right. Now you can go to that tweet. Here's one, all right.
Starting point is 01:21:48 True North, event in Calgary, October 26th. Yeah, this is what Harrison Faulkner were saying yesterday on the podcast. So it sounds like their keynote speaker is going to be Danielle Smith. And there you go. There's the details. tickets at true north events.ca. Yeah. And then what was the other one we had in there?
Starting point is 01:22:11 Oh, you stuck in there, Rosemary Barton. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's really good. So this could almost be the happy news. Rosemary Barton of the CBC at issue coming back tomorrow or was coming back tomorrow. It is now coming back tonight. Poor CBC can't seem to get their poop in a group.
Starting point is 01:22:30 And tomorrow. arm strength emoji at CBC the National. So for those of you waiting with bated breath, Rosemary Barton and her regular TV show are coming back online after a summer break. So make sure you go in and check it out. And then we had in the comments, the thing in Karneduff,
Starting point is 01:22:51 apparently it was something called like the fall brawl, I guess instead, but the event in Karneduff September 7th. We have Saturday, October 19th, BC election live coverage. Election coverage that doesn't suck. Sorry, brought to you by the mashup. We have Monday, October 28th.
Starting point is 01:23:08 That's going to be the Saskatchewan election. We got Tuesday number 5th, the U.S. election. And whenever the Canadian election happens, folks, we are going to be covering that sucker. We're going to have a lot of fun with a lot of interesting people across Canada. That one will be a ton of fun to do. And then you're in BC and you think like you would want to get the word out for your company or something like that. We are taking
Starting point is 01:23:32 sponsors. If you're in Saskatchewan, same thing. And if you're in some other place, we'd probably be glad to have you too. And then Shine Christian Academy has a What in the World Conference coming up here if you have been wondering what in the world is going on in regards to such topics as climate change, land use,

Starting point is 01:24:07 I hope I said that right. I think I got that right. Yes, I did. It's Gmail. Yeah. Yeah. Gmail is a thing. 123, folks.
Starting point is 01:24:22 123. We came in flying, I think, maybe. Daddy's home, I guess. That's what I took from this one. And thanks to our sponsor. And again, if you're interested or if you know somebody who might be interested. Yeah. I think, you know, put on your thinking caps, folks.
Starting point is 01:24:41 Let's see if we can't knock this one on the parkour. Because, you know, you're wonderful people that know a bunch of more wonderful people. And we'd like to you to find a CPA. And if it's because of this that she finds a CPA, I'm pretty sure I can guiltrip her into being my accountant. So help me out too, guys. Tews. I guess until next week, good sir.
