There we go.
Okay.
Let's get into it here.
We got a couple.
There's going to be some good notables.
You want to do the budget off the back?
I don't know what to say about it that I didn't say in the Siff and Rip.
I think the biggest, like I cannot outdo millennial moron.
And I said this on the Sunday show that, you know, he's the guy, the guy is like hyper focused on the most important things in that budget and beat not only the media to the big stories.
also the conservative party to the big stories.
I don't know if you, did you listen to Sip and Rip on Sunday?
No.
Did you know that the government's new definition of operational versus investing capital
meant that even though the Kearney liberals spent months campaigning on that, on this idea
that the Trudeau's were reckless spenders and the government budget was out of control and
the books needed to be really tightened up, their new definition has.
had the 2025 budget with all the old spending and no new spending already balanced,
which means that all the spending the liberals were doing was in line with what they view as
investment capital.
How about that?
So they balanced the budget in terms of the old spending and then took on enough new
spending that they're not going to, quote unquote, balance it again for four years
unless literally anything rocks the economic boat.
There's no room for error at all.
and no one picked up on that except for millennial moron nobody and i still haven't seen anything
about it melissa lansman today put out a super long article about bureaucratic processes and a video
to go with it retarded talk about this investment thing this is the big thing and the you know
jason jake uh the pbo interim um the intern pbO uh parliamentary budget officer going on every show still
and saying, like, this is a problem.
We are in uncharted territory.
These guys are making up definitions.
They're extremely broad, much more broad than Germany, much more broad than the UK,
much more broad than any accounting definition.
It's not hard to see where this is going.
And I just said, I'm like, dumbfounded that most Canadians don't take an interest in this.
At the same time, you know, Francois-Philippe Champagne is on Steve Paykin's podcast.
Paken pitching him slow and across the point.
plate over and over and over again. No hard questions, no research, no nothing. And it's like
what are we hoping for here? When these guys come to do interviews on the news, on whatever,
like Capellos, you know, raises her voice and has, you know, hard-hitting intonation,
but also doesn't ask good questions. Where's the research? Control F the budget, capital,
investing, strategic, defense, look for these words. Tell me what you see. Tell me what you
fine. It's just not it's not KPMG level accounting required to look at a budget and say,
here's what the old budget says, here's what the new budget says, here's what investment
means, and then go to Google and say, what does investment mean? It's not that hard. You got
chat CPT, you got perplexity. You got all these other tools now. No one's doing the work
except for people on the internet. And so when you go to Thanksgiving dinner now,
or Christmas dinner is a Canadian and you're, you know, someone who's terminally online or
knows how to do research, what do you think you're, you can't even, I can't even
talk to the people around my table now.
You know, oh, Mark Carney was the guy for the job.
Like, what are we basing this on now?
I understand if you thought that before the election, but what are you basing it on now?
The government ran, hold on.
The government ran on the idea they were going to tighten up the books.
Then they redefined what investment and what spending was, or investment in operations.
And the new definition had all the old spending.
that was characterized as frivolous as right in line with a balanced budget.
What are we talking about, man?
There's more to it.
The question I asked before is, how long has he been there?
Like, when did he come into power?
Was Mark?
Jake's or Carney?
Carney's been there for eight months now, almost seven months.
Yeah.
Now, has the price of food gone up since then?
Oh, yeah.
Have you noticed, did you notice that the price of strawberries got?
Like, I don't know about you, but I don't buy you.
but I don't buy strawberries.
We buy berries for my daughter all the time.
You do?
They're very expensive.
My wife tells me all the time.
She can't believe it.
I don't buy it myself.
A little flat of raspberries is like $7.
I don't buy it myself.
It lasts like three days.
That's more of a somebody, you know, that's below beneath me that could buy it.
I have somebody buy it for me, right?
Like I, that shit is, but the reality is, look, the price of beef has gone up quite a bit.
The price of chicken is soon going to go up quite a bit.
Yeah.
They're using these new metrics.
Deficit to GDP?
This is the other, this is the deficit to GDP.
Deficit GDP is a bad one, but let me give you a better one.
Net debt to GDP.
Oh, yes, including all the assets and everything.
So that include net debt to GDP is this new metric that no one really talks about in the modern world because most of the modern world is not retarded.
Net debt to GDP is different than debt to GDP.
That to GDP is the country's spending to its outputs.
Okay.
fine, whatever it owes compared to what it's outputting.
That's already a bad number.
Net debt to GDP is nefarious.
It is intentionally misleading and it is dishonest.
And everybody knows this, including Jason Jakes.
He's talked about it.
And I think we talked about it too, but I will reiterate here.
The big problem with net debt to GDP is that it includes the pension assets in the net debt calculation,
but doesn't include entitlement spending that's yet to be.
outputted or health care or education or anything.
So those pension assets, great for paying down the debt.
But in terms of actual entitlement spending that's coming down the line that's already
been budgeted for, especially as the boomers age into their withdrawal years from their pension
accounts and from the CPPIB, this is not included.
It is the most backwards set of metrics I've ever seen.
And Jason Jakes is trying hard when he goes on these shows not to blow again.
basket, but he's getting closer.
And at the same time, all this is happening,
Sussex has the audacity
to say they're looking for a new PBO
lead and he's got to have
tact and discretion. Like fuck he does.
His job is to tell the public
and parliamentarians what's going on.
Where'd my camera go? My camera just shut off.
I got to turn it back on.
My camera's too hot. Yeah, it's too hot. I'm still here.
But listen. You're yelling at it, man.
I know. You're mining too much.
I have to turn it off because it's running it
4K. I got to get it off of 4K. But the point I'm trying to make is that if you allow this
level of accounting to continue, you will cause yourself so much grief down the line as a
Canadian. You have no idea how this is going to impact you. Sorry, Joey, you'll be able to cash out
your ETFs and everything and be able to get access. It goes all back to this. Let's play out
this deficit to GDP thing, right? The deficit this year is extremely high. One reason is
Well, two reasons.
They're funding a lot of these projects,
these projects to help build stuff, right?
Okay, that's number one.
The second is they haven't had a budget released in a year and a half.
So you're adding an extra six months on what's been done, right?
Sure.
So now you have, hypothetically, you have the deficit.
I don't know what it is this year.
80 billion or what was the number?
78 billion.
Yeah, 78 billion.
Next year.
And by the way, and by the way, that number is going to go up.
Well, no, no, this is what I'm trying to get at, because now you have had a year and a half worth of budget.
Next year is going to be 12 months.
So, and you're, you're marking, spending all this money on projects.
Maybe you could front load it because next year, instead of having 80 million deficit, it's now 70 million, which is still in its own very bad, but the deficit the GDP went down by 10 billion.
So it's trending in the right direction.
That's right.
But that doesn't, it's not a good overall metric of the health of the economy.
economy. It's a snapshot just year to year. That's all it is. At least death of GDP you can compare it over a long enough period of time. Deficit that you're just comparing it year to year. And if you have a blip, it fucking throws everything off, either positively or negatively. And now talking about things are looking rosy, the Bank of Canada came out with some reports. I don't know exactly what was said in it, but I was listening to question period. Apparently they're saying that inflation numbers are within the target and it has been.
for some time, but look at the price of groceries.
Hey, don't forget, Bank of Canada just abandoned corn inflation as a metric.
So, you know, they're looking at things that are, they're not illustrative of the actual
difficulties and the full economic picture.
They're not doing it on purpose.
They're doing it on purpose is the thing we have.
And then we have that salaries are going up year to year.
Now, maybe they are.
And if they are, are they going up with the same rate as the cost of what you're living
is.
I'll let you decide that.
They're saying that they're creating so many jobs.
The last job report that came out for the month of October was the majority of jobs was
less than 10,000 jobs.
I did this on Sippenra.
It was 70,000 jobs were created part-time.
30,000 people adding a second job and one-third of the new jobs across both, across both.
You can't say that.
You can't say that that's a metric of success and say that jobs are good.
And by the way, Len, that's a seasonal pump, too.
Yes, exactly.
The Blue Jays were doing really well.
People were hired to do like these types.
It was food and the type of services.
The question really goes to is the things in the way they're trending.
Can this be fixed?
Can you say there is a likelihood in an X5, 10, whatever year you want to put in?
Can this thing be fixed?
Can the boat be righted here?
Can you say, yeah, this is trending in the right direction?
If the answer is no
What the fuck you're doing?
The answer is no
Then what
Then what the fuck are you doing?
Yeah
I'm asking you
It's not a rhetorical question
I mean I'm buying I'm buying Bitcoin
I'm buying Bitcoin
I'm just I'm loading up on assets
That I can
That are transportable
That travel well let's say
And I'll be ready
It's fun
You know I have a couple of
Sort of signpost indicators in my life
One is my wife's willingness
To discuss leaving Dundas
and although she's not necessarily warm to it
I haven't decided yet
but at some point like
you know there will come a time when I
when I look around I'm sure at some point
and go yeah this is like I'm seeing the same signs
I saw my old neighborhood
but where do you go?
I don't know
that's the question
across the bridge I come to it
across the region I come to it
right now the top two countries on my list
are Poland and Hungary
I think you can escape
a lot of the nonsense over there
but I would add Russia, Estonia,
some of those other places that are,
they are difficult to travel to by dingy.
For a weekend,
in a chat,
I've been pounding this fucking drum,
the GTFO drum for quite some fucking time.
And I've been telling people,
make the fucking preparations before things get bad.
He is the worst thing that you do
is when shit hits the fan
and you start making the moves then.
You don't want to do it.
You want to start making,
moves today better yesterday
but started today you don't have to
act in it if the worst comes
then you at least have a plan if the worst
doesn't come well
at least plan for something that didn't happen it's like
you built a bomb shelter and the no bomb came up
that's really you got
a plan ahead where to go
it's up to you
I don't know man like maybe the two
you mentioned the two countries I think
I think I said disaster yeah I think the EU
the EU is a collapsing
group, but Hungary and Poland have held their own in terms of, you know, third world immigrants
and Islam and all this other shit that destroys modern worlds.
And so I do- There's a lot more to it, though.
Yeah, whatever.
But my point is that is it going to get easier or harder as the EU starts to collapse
economically and socially to continue to resist those things?
It'll get easier.
I think those will become very popular spots, to be honest with you.
So the problem-
I'd like to go.
the question I have is
what's the likelihood
that this thing
doesn't collapse in 10 years
and I think a lot
What's this thing?
What's this thing?
The European Union and this
It's almost an experiment
that's been what in the works for 25 years or so.
35 now.
I wasn't even more to that long.
It just,
it's a lot,
my opinion hinges on
the success of Germany and France
and France has really gone bad
and Germany is really got,
and hey,
I don't know if you know this,
but the IMF
as Canada and Germany are the best
economies in the world.
Germany, to their credit,
I'll have to say this.
They've fucked up by closing
those nuclear plants and all that.
But they have decided,
it looks like they're going to,
because the war is over
and has been some time in Syria,
they're talking about
basically saying, you know what,
you're no longer a refugee
if you're from that neck of the woods.
Because you came here to escape a war,
the war is no longer there.
It may be time for you to go back.
So, at least to their credit, they're going to be doing that.
Germany, no, I think Germany is going the other direction.
Germany is creating, if you listen to Sip and Rip, you'd know this.
Germany creating a catalog, an inventory of young people based on their fitness level
and other characteristics to prepare for a draft, according to the Wall Street Journal.
And that's what I was going to get to that.
If this thing collapses, you have now Romania that is bordering Ukraine.
you have Poland that is bordering you
like you have these
almost buffer countries
and they don't want to call them buffer countries
but if they don't have
a commitment from the whole
the European Union and they're on their own
it becomes
I mean we see what happened
100 years ago we've seen what happened
75 years 80 years ago
or whatever fuck it was like things could repeat
itself there could be an advance of troops
people just want to take it land
there's going to be a rise of right wing
populism if there hasn't if it hasn't
started already. It's going to start. I mean, Donald Trump had to mention Nick Fuentes by name
to the press the other day. To give you an idea, like, I don't know where we are on the continuum
in terms of the conservative movement all over the modern world pushing for policies that were
unthinkable 12 months ago, but we're inching, we were inching closer. Now we are moving
closer to these things. So yeah, I do think there's a possibility that things get nasty. And the
The EU is, you know, if you follow Preston Byrne in front of the show,
who's doing incredible work in the fight for free speech for American companies operating
in Europe.
Like he's a, that guy's a fucking hammer the stuff he's tweeting about.
And he left the UK, right?
Like, he left the UK.
He moved to Connecticut, I think.
He lives in Connecticut now with his cute little pup there.
And the EU is clamping down on free speech at crazy speed.
There goes my camera again.
It's clamping down on the EU.
EU at a crazy speed. Why? Because the EU knows that these policies are unpopular. And so they
have no choice but to tell people, you know, well, you can't talk about how popular the policies
are. We can't have that. We need these policies to pass. We can't have you guys talking about
how much you hate them. That's not going to work. So they, like, it's so laughable and so
predictable that all this stuff is going on now. And I think that people are realizing this,
regardless of their political stripe, their age, all this stuff. Like, wait a minute, I have to
tell Spotify how old I am before I go online I have to tell Twitter that I'd take a picture of my
face to go on Twitter and attach it's illegal IPs at least that's you know what I'm saying like it's
it's it's not common people are starting to realize that things are happening here and they're
not happy about it I don't think and they shouldn't be they should not be happy though then I agree
and because there's been a lot of immigration everywhere right it's slowly slowly changing
demographics and you have a very low birth rate and as the old people
people die off and then it's really a change in how things are that could also be a change in
votes over a period of time totally totally immediately but you wait you know as certain people
have more kids and others and you know after a couple generations it's holy count and
Sweden is is an example of this of how things have changed over there and they're in the
EU and once you get once you're in the EU country you have a passport you can go to any
there's little resistance to go to another one.
You still there, Joey?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
There's little resistance to go to another one.
You could easily go and live and work in a different EU country if you have a passport, a
you passport.
So, like, the example is the Roma, the gypsies, right?
Now they're in Canada, too, right?
They've come here to do their craft.
But they're a nuisance for certain, like you go to Italy, for example, they're fucking
Ben Johnson was robbed by.
Yeah, man.
And he couldn't chase them down after.
it's just whatever it is what it is what i want to mention the uk we talked about them and i just want
to give them credit here because it's turning into a case study and they have a population of about
70 million as of mid 2024 so it's gone up you know i don't imagine a little bit since then significantly
yeah maybe in a year i don't know how much well maybe a million anyways we'll call 71 million
so the department of work and pensions they indicated that the number of people on universal
credit, aka welfare, is now
4 million people.
If you do the math, that's around 5%
of the population that are
not working. And they also
conclude the number of foreigners that are
claiming this welfare is at a
record 1.24
shocking. Who could have seen this coming?
Who could have seen this coming? Christopher Hitchens is rolling
in his grave right now. Continue.
The government, they announced this week, that
it's launching an independent review
into the rising number of young people not working or studying,
many of whom are not collecting benefits at all,
but instead becoming economically inactive straight after education.
So they just leave after their finish education.
They don't decide to work or anything,
and they started collecting this universal credit.
My God.
It's a mess.
They're neat.
They think the term is neat, right?
Not in education, employment, or training,
I think is the term that you'd use for those kids.
They just don't care.
They're apathetic.
they and by the way like why why there's videos of migrants playing PlayStation 5s and eating four
four course meals in hotels for free why the fuck if you were an 18 year old 19 year old in
britain would you not just become a roadman you know how's that how's that slang people in the
chat i still got it i'm not unk status yet how about you just become a roadman and hang out in
the street smoke darts harass people in a you know in an indiana's sweatsuit all day
and leach off the state, why should you not?
If you come over in an inflatable raft,
you get to play call of duty all day in a hotel.
Like, why do I have to work?
Why do I have to pay for school?
Why do I have to take on debt?
Why do I have to live in a 10-man apartment building,
you know, in a 10-man apartment?
It's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
Normal people are opposed to this stuff for good reason.
Oh, like, why are we still pretending?
We should not be pretending, okay,
that this is not happening.
anymore. And this is ultimately the problem that governments are contending with now, that
the normal people are tired of seeing this shit every fucking day, every fucking hour, every
fucking minute. Stories about, oh, food banks are overloaded. Someone goes down to the food bank
takes a video. It's all immigrants. I can't get a job anywhere. There's no jobs. You go to
Tim Hortons, someone takes a video. It's all Indians. You go, you know, the hospital's packed. I can't
see a doctor for 20 hours. Someone takes a video to the hospital. It's all, it's all newcomers.
Like, like everyone is fucking sick of it. They're sick of it. And why should they not be?
I continue to say this on Twitter. I will say it on the show. The people in charge have no
understanding of the information environment in which they're operating. And it is costing them
dearly in terms of support. And when you lose support, you don't just lose votes. You lose
cohesion. That causes revolution. If you want to know what that looks like, ask, ask some Europeans
from the 50s. Ask him in the 60s. Ask him in the 70s. New York, Seattle, this is the start.
These guys are electing socialist. Mom, Donnie's a bad one. Katie Wilson in Seattle lives with
her parents. She's 43 years old. Mayor. This is how it starts. And you know how it ends already.
You have to be prepared. Let's talk about the Canadian justice system again.
Sure. Yeah, I'm already worked up and up. I had two cops.
today after 5 o'clock because I thought I was going to be up talking to Phil till 10 o'clock
and now I'm not and so I'm just unloading here I'm absolutely unloading well get right
keeping an eye on the monitor making sure that my voice doesn't go too loud that my daughter wakes up
and she's like a light clear those lungs because you may start yelling this guy he's a mohawk man
he named jesse garlo and he's a convicted drug trafficker and he was essentially freed
after being caught in possession with weapons.
The man was discovered driving around Peterborough
with a crack pipe in his lap.
And not just that, a loaded and prohibited
modified military-style rifle
described by the judge as a quote-unquote killing machine
in the back seat.
Not only that, he had a fucking flamethrower in his trunk.
So the judge noted that the rifle was the time.
He's out on bail already.
The judge noticed that the rifle was designed solely to, quote,
maim and or kill in a spray of bullets.
And the was in the possession of shit that's anti-technical to norms of Canadian values
because obviously we don't like this type of stuff.
And they just banned this stuff not too long with this type of weapon.
Yeah, he's able to have this modified thing.
So the courts decided to try him.
And the prosecutor's demand of a 3.5 year,
in the sentence was rejected by the courts.
He was given credit
516 days in jail
so that's for the pre-trial
he was given credit
resulting in a suspended sentence, Joey
and three years probation
and the decision for declaring Garlo
was quote
personification of intergenerational trauma
oh for fuck sake
fuck sake
I'm not bad I'm not that
All right.
I'm going to finish this.
Citing his personal history,
including his father's cultural damage
from the residential school system.
The murder of both his grandfathers
and his own
descent into drug,
abuse, and crime.
So the judge determines these factors
and they say that
it drastically lowered his moral responsibility.
She stated that the punishing him further...
Sorry, she?
She?
Yeah, it judge...
Judge, this is a pattern emerging here.
Justice Brenda Green.
And so she stated that punishing him further, quote,
for the sake of the common good would be unjust, quote.
So reducing the sentence would not be a soft on crime thing,
but rather a obligation to address, redress,
and hopefully institutionalize the abused persons here.
So, yeah, it's a very interesting case.
and he's now out and about at 560
516 days in jail
was enough.
The guy had a flamethrower
and a modified military style weapon
after being convicted for drugs.
He was out.
His crime is punished him for
so he's already criminal.
Imagine if I got caught with this kind of stuff
and I don't have a record.
I'm wondering.
You'd be locked up for life.
Why are we not just executing people publicly?
Can we, I'm serious, there's a, there's a point to be made here about public death.
And it's not harsh in a way that's any different from the things that somebody might experience at the hands of this fellow down the road.
He will almost certainly commit another crime.
It will almost certainly be one of violence and it will almost certainly destroy a family.
So why are we not publicly executing people like this?
Again, we need to make an example.
out of a few people, right?
This is all it takes.
There's a significant thing to be said for the chilling effect.
Criminals have no fear in this country, none.
I am friends with many police officers,
and they all agree that something needs to be done
in terms of deterrent,
and the law no longer provides that.
That is the role of the law,
and crime and punishment are a pair
because of the deterrent factor.
If the punishment is no longer a deterrent,
then what is?
It's not self-defense.
I can't use a gun on my property.
I'm still waiting to hear what happened to those guys who broke in and the homeowner stabbed him or took a swing at him with a knife or something.
So that's not a deterrent.
Jail's not a deterrent because these guys are living in club med a lot of times.
I look down on Barton Street there in the Hamilton jail.
I've got a buddy who was in there for assault.
I won't tell that story.
But he was telling me that it really wasn't that bad.
You just make friends with people and you're just killing time, basically playing hockey sack and eating decent meals and doing pushups.
like, okay, you have to, you have to publicly execute people.
There's nothing left if we don't start doing that.
We're talking about people.
There was a news report or a police report a little while ago about a guy who was
released into the community in Canada.
He's a pedophile.
Like, they post his picture and say that he's a high risk to reoffend.
Why is he out?
Why isn't he hanging?
Guys who are committing crimes and killing people in their homes while he's on bail.
Why?
Well, institutional racism.
kill him.
You know, there's this, this meme about, you know, we can fix everything by just flipping
this switch.
And all the quotes around the switch in the picture are, well, don't even talk about flipping
the switch.
We don't want to hear about the switch.
Only extremists mention the switch.
The switch is from a time past.
We can't talk about the switch.
We don't really want to fix everything.
What does fix even mean?
We're not sure about this.
Don't go near the switch.
Don't mention it.
The switch can't be brought up.
We need to flick the switch.
The switch is serious punishment publicly for serious crimes.
Because otherwise, Len, what is the, what is the outcome?
It's people getting killed.
It's people getting killed on roads.
People getting killed in their home.
People getting killed at their stores.
People getting killed while they're walking.
People getting stabbed while they're taking their dog out.
It's not just here.
It's in the UK.
It's in Germany.
Can't have a Christmas market.
Can't have a public gathering.
Can't go to church.
Can't go to school.
Why?
Because you might die.
like at what point do we start hanging people in the town square and yeah you can say whatever you want
like this will probably this video i don't know maybe it'll circulate maybe it won't but my my point is
that if you don't punish people for their crimes in a way that is proportionate for the damage they
are doing not only to your society but to the people who are victimized killing kids you know
didlers uh you name it if they're not getting punished then what are we doing what what is
the whole point of the system, if not to punish
these people? We're not trying to
rehabilitate them. This guy is not going to
suddenly no longer have a problem
with his generational trauma
in a year. He will still have
the flamethrower and the modified weapon.
What is the
fix there? And I don't understand
what we're doing anymore.
It's frustrating to me. I'm paying
taxes to live in a place
where violence is encouraged.
The encouragement
is implicit
it with the lack of punishment.
So what the fuck is going on?
What are we supposed to do?
I think we should move to the next story.
Oh my God.
No opinion again.
I'm out there.
Because we have the co-witchin tribes.
They are urgently seeking financial help from the federal government.
I love this story too.
Clean up a massive illegal landfill on their reserve near Duncan, BC.
And this is an environmental disaster.
and it's poisoning the local environment.
It's a quote unquote mountain of waste on Indian Road.
And it's including, we lost to you again, Joey.
It's including construction waste, industrial waste,
and even dangerous concentrations of heavy metals like arsenic, lead, and zinc.
And, yeah, so the environmental reports that this is very toxic
and it could leach into the nearby
Cowichin River, and it could threaten the groundwater
and anybody that's relying on that for sustaining life.
And the estimated cost for remediation is up to around $5.3 million.
And they want to have the federal government help and provide payment for this.
And Ottawa, I guess, is mulling this over for right now.
And they're saying that the tribe is saying this is a long overdue responsibility by the federal government.
Also of note, the co-witchin tribes received the total, this is reported, at least I can't confirm this,
they received a total of nearly $560 million in federal funding from 2017 to 2025.
That's including $93 million in 2023 and $9,000.
million dollars in
2024. Keep in mind
these numbers. I said
$560 million since
2017. According to
Google, the co-witchin tribes
have about
5,500 members, according to
2024 data.
Can they take turns picking up the garbage for
a few years?
The best quote from this story,
I'm trying to find it on my Twitter feed here in between
trying to cool my camera down. It's funny. I was
talking to Ben and a few other podcast people
on the telegram the other day, and we were talking about overheating cameras.
Now, here I am, breaking every rule I have about making sure my camera stays cool.
The best part of this story is the quote from one of the band leaders that says,
this is not just a Cowichan, Cowishan issue to clean up and fix.
It's a federal issue.
I don't fucking think so.
I don't fucking think so.
You want to talk about land that belongs to you, that no one's allowed to operate on.
You're blocking pipelines, maybe not you specifically, but your tribes people and your
colleagues are blocking pipelines and economic development.
You're taking money at all turns with your hands out.
You fix it.
You fix it.
If you want the government to fix it, you sign the land over for the federal government.
They'll fix it for you.
But they're going to own it after that.
That is the cost of doing business in the real world.
Not this nonsense.
It won't be a desal, Joey.
Don't be a fucking desal.
I want to talk about this.
It's close to home for me.
In Oakville, we had a power out.
There's, you know, nothing crazy about that.
But the reason for this power outage was due to a stolen transformer.
And Halton police are investigating a stolen transformer that led to the Oakville's, this
neighborhood in Oakville in Northeast part that was, had a power outage.
And according to police, this took place in November 6th.
And police came out and realized, holy fuck, the transformer was stolen.
And the transformer is a lot of copper and shit.
that so they took all this apparently the theft is over five thousand dollars they say the
pole was cut down to access to transformer and there's no suspects available right now this is
i love this it reminds me a bit this is like a story from 20 years ago on the 427 that's a highway
in the west side of toronto when the price of steel started really going up thieves went out
and started stealing the covers for the sewers and they did this on the
fucking highway too.
If a car came in like
a hundred kilometers per hour and hit
it would have spun out and just rolled
or whatever would have been disastrous. But it's
reminded me of that. Like when shit goes up in
price and people aren't being
punished as you mentioned two stories ago,
it gives them incentive to
take stuff and
it's a free for all. It's a free
for all everywhere. Like what are we talking about?
Well, maybe next time if you don't want the transformer stolen
or if you don't want any issues, leave the keys
to the transformer there.
You leave a decoy transformer on your porch or whatever, you know, find a way.
You guys can do it.
You take the advice that you're giving out.
I have no sympathy.
I have no sympathy.
Fuck them.
Fuck them.
Speed cameras are now done in Ontario as of November 15th.
They're no longer allowed in the streets.
And people, some people are pissed because they're saying this is a good way to deter speeders.
And the, uh, Doug Ford was saying this was strictly a cash grab.
This is, this is a great one way.
because my camera's overheating,
and I'm just fucking screaming unpleasant news.
People could probably hear me on the street.
Okay, go ahead.
Can't wait.
So Ford was saying this is a cash grab, right?
I'm not sure which side of the camp you believe.
This is either a cash grab or it's helping deter drivers.
But once he said,
we're going to get rid of this,
Toronto City Council unanimously voted
to ask the province to reimburse the city for road safety programs
after the speed cameras are gone.
So I guess it was a cash grab.
Yeah.
Olivia Chow Olivia Chow has the you know intestinal constitution to stand up in front of a camera and a microphone and say that they're going to lose a thousand jobs if they don't get the speed cameras back like what are so you it's a money maker for you and you're spending the money before you have it it's not deterring drivers from speeding obviously if it's making money so that's the other thing right well it's making us so much money because drivers are speeding well then it's not deterring anyone like what's
These guys, again, they don't think, they don't think.
And they just talk and talk and talk without considering the things they're saying
because they've never had to deal with Len and Joey on Wednesday
berating them for being stupid.
But like, they are stupid.
They are stupid.
This is a stupid thing to say.
It's a stupid thing to say.
And Ford is right for getting rid of those speed cameras.
They're dumb.
They're so dumb.
They cause problems because they cause problems because people are driving at pace with
traffic and the speed cameras pop up in your map and your map says speed camera ahead you
fucking hit the brakes or you see the speed camera you fucking hit the brakes and you're like okay
well now I'm causing traffic jams that's an issue too the same way by the way that cops
that that are operating speed traps are causing traffic issues I believe that is the case too
that those guys when they're hiding under bridges and stuff and people see them last minute on
the Lincoln Alexander Parkway here in Hamilton they go from doing 105 to slamming on their
break and going 80 in the fast lane because they don't want to get
a ticket. Like that causes problems
for traffic. What about that guy
not too long ago was right using
his roller blades in the link.
Yeah, see that guy, he's
he's got to slow down traffic for
that dude, right? Or else he's going to be
fucking wiped off the orders. Anyway, let's
how many more before Brampton
Hamilton? This camera I can tell is going to overheat.
No, it's now we're doing. Let's do it.
256 heat is a sponsor of this
segment of the show.
If you want to heat your house, okay,
He's hot, man.
Use 256 heat.
I don't know why people are not using them.
Twan is selling so many of these goddamn things that he's traveling around the province
installing big setups for people.
In no small part thanks to you guys who are buying them.
I cannot stress enough how great these units are and everyone should have one of these.
If you don't, I don't know why you don't, especially with the price low now,
you may find that you get a little bit more firepower on the mining side if people are shutting off their miners.
It's good, man.
it's good I love it
yeah take the ride in the chat
if you want to hit your house
you can also buy this camera
the ZVEE 10 maybe
me and Lennar always talking about
what we should buy on Black Friday
for the show maybe the answer is buying
like a camera fan or something
I don't know not sure
think about that
the problem is I was using USB
for a long time because I broke my
capture card there it goes
I broke my capture card cable
and I just got a new one in the mail
and so this thing is running
the cam link card now
and it's getting hot obviously
I have to figure that out
but anyway
Okay, Brampton or Hamilton.
I'll close the chat.
Here we go.
Let's rip it.
This man, it's kind of a sad story,
but I like the way he,
the method in which he used to do the deed.
He killed his dad with a crossbow.
This is the lead up to the story.
This man killed his dad with a crossbow,
and he's going to face life in prison
after pleading to second degree murder.
I can't believe this guy gets life in prison,
but the other guy with a flea.
What about his generational trauma?
Does he have any?
That's the thing. Well, he says he's very sorry for what he did. He apologized to his family for the pain that he caused them.
And he wanted to let them know that at the time he released, he's a very, at the time this was released, he was a very different man.
And he hopes to be a better man moving forward.
And this guy was 23, he was charged with first degree murder and he pleaded guilty to second degree murder with the consent of the crown.
And he won't be able to get parole for 13 years because, well, this is a fit and proper judgment according to justice.
Paul Sweeney.
So this guy in February 2024 was waiting outside his dad's home in a rented SUV.
When his father came home, he confronted him and shot him twice with the crossbow before
fleeing in the SUV.
Police arrested him two days later.
Isn't it hard to reload a crossbow?
I think so, but, you know, maybe the first one, it's, you know, you might have got him
and he's just, what the fuck happened?
They're like, who shot me with a crossbow?
I'd be stunned too.
And so, yeah.
So apparently this guy was claiming that his father.
was abusive in his lifestyle and he's doing shit that is against his beliefs and his father
56 worked as a welder he was pronounced dead at the hospital about an hour later and uh yeah that's
a story this guy shot his dad he had enough of him and he decided to use a fucking crossbow to end
his life so that's story number one story number two is a little shorter but uh this delivery
driver is facing charges after alleged sexual assaulting sexually assaulting a customer in their
home and this has wrap it up i already know the answer i already got you finished the story but
everybody already knows the answer so this happened in april 3rd in an apartment and this guy was
working uh as delivery driver he entered into the woman's delivery driver this is this is never been
easier on this show under the guys of using the restroom so he decided you know what i gotta take
a piss by the way i'm gonna fucking sexually assault you at the same time and so yeah so he's
sexually assaulted here before leaving the unit and the police believe
There may be other victims, 29-year-old.
This dude was caught and charged with one count of sexual assault.
Those are the two stories.
I was going to use another story that was very famous this week, but I couldn't because you would have known about it.
So I had to go call an audible and use this one.
So if people are crying, why did you fucking use the very famous story?
There's a reason why.
I guess right away.
Yeah.
I mean, obviously the sexual assaulter is the Brampton man.
That's a no-brainer.
delivery driver sexual assault he's checking all the boxes was he wearing sandals too
during the incident was there any like ring camera footage doesn't say but uh yeah the guy
charged did he give his name uh no it does not give his name but the other guy
god uh he let me see pull up the article for that one uh the guy with the crossbow
yeah sucraj chima sing i got wow but he's a hamilton man
He's a Hamilton man.
Yeah.
Wow.
He shot his father, yeah.
How old is that story?
2024.
Wow.
Yeah, I didn't, I don't, I forgot about that if I read it at all.
Like, good, good, fine by you.
That would have been a good one if you were saying to me that, yeah.
Not any names.
Guess not.
But yeah, there was the bus story.
You heard that bus story, right?
Of course.
I've been talking about it with everybody.
The HSR should hire that guy.
I was a big time bus user in high school because most of the schools we played basketball
against were other places in the city.
and my parents were working.
So at 2.30 or 2 o'clock, you know, you get out a little early from school.
If you're on the team, get on a city bus, and off you go.
This day was, got to go to Cathedral.
He was making stops.
Yeah, he was still making stops.
He was on track, on schedule.
And I think story, so I have a source at the city.
And the story is that the guy who took the bus was a passenger of the bus leading up to the theft.
And the reason he took the bus, is this in the story?
No, but this I was aware.
The reason he took the bus is because the driver was taking too long during one of his breaks.
And did you watch the episode on Seinfeld when Kramer was talking about he saw a bus driver was being mugged and then he was knocked out.
So Kramer decided to take control and he was driving.
Did you remember this one or no?
I've seen it.
He was talking to guys.
This is exactly the same thing.
He was driving the bus.
Kramer was driving the bus and he was still making the stops just like this fucking guy.
right so this guy
is the modern day Kramer
this guy took the bus and he's
fucking making the stops because people ringing the bell
I love it I love it
that's it many people were telling me he was going to wrong way
he had to get a detour stuff he went
from Maine to King or something
he got everybody to their stops I didn't hear
any complaints people on Reddit agree with me
if the guy was on time and polite
you know give him a job let's not reprimand
him I don't know what kind of generational trauma
he's got but I hope he's got some
he'd be a non-union member right
yeah I think he's uh
he's a contractor. I'm pretty sure. Yeah.
That's it. We're out of here. Good night and God bless you all. Thanks for coming.
This was a well attended show by the way. I see.
No, before we ended, I just want to say, Joey, next month we have coming up Christmas.
Now, for people out there that are still listening and watching, I'd love to know some suggestions for, because what I envision, this is the way I want to do it, Joey, and I'm going to throw it out there for everybody that this is basically, we're behind the scenes here, but we'll.
