The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program | Guest: Ezra Levant | 8/25/26

Episode Date: August 25, 2026

Glenn discusses the ongoing murder trial involving Lindsay Clancy and explains why people are looking to find guilt anywhere besides where the fault lies: Lindsay Clancy. Everybody has heard the line from "Spider-Man," “With great power comes great responsibility.” Glenn dives into the history of that proverb and how it’s still relevant to everything we’re seeing today. Rebel News founder Ezra Levant joins to discuss the possibility that Canadian PM Mark Carney purposefully sabotaged the U.S./Canada trade negotiations.  Learn more about your ad choices.

So I try to break down on today's podcast, the Lindsay Clancy story. And I think I have an angle that most people don't have. But I understand through, you know, my own family history, mental illness and how devastating that is. But I also understand through my own history, responsibility and what it means, which leads me into Spider-Man in reverse. You're a Spider-Man fan. I'm going to teach you something about Spider-Man. But more importantly, teaching you why with great power comes great responsibility, why the reverse of that is happening to us right now and what it means.

And we speak to Ezra Levant. He is from Canada. And he has the real scoop on what is going on in Canada. What does all of this mean? Why is this Canadian thing such a big deal? and what's the real goal from Mark Carney? All of that and so much more on today's podcast. You're listening to The Best of the Glenback program.

I want to talk to you about Lindsay Clancy. This is the woman up in Massachusetts. And let me give you the story before I get into what people are saying right now. First of all, let's start with the important thing. Cora was five. Dawson was three. Callan was eight months old. And they died in a house in Massachusetts.

Massachusetts, January 24th, 2023, their mother has never disputed that she was the one who did it. The trial ends this week in Plymouth, Mass. Superior Court is hearing this case, but it's not about what happened. It's about one question. Is she responsible for doing it even though she claimed she did it? Is she responsible? Now, I want to make this really clear. I am not in that jury box.

I have not heard testimony for four years. weeks. I have not been following every word that's happening. I haven't watched the witnesses. I am not going to sit here and tell you what I think the verdict should be. I've watched all of what's happening from the outside of the courtroom. And that's what I want to talk to you about, because I don't hear anybody saying these things. So let's start with something almost nobody in America knows, because it changes how you read every headline that you see on this case. Massachusetts does not use the word insanity. The doctrine is called lack of criminal responsibility and the test has two doors to it. Door one, because of a mental disease, she couldn't appreciate what she was doing wrong.

That's the first one. Door two. She could appreciate it perfectly well, but she lacked the substantial capacity to stop herself. Either one of those doors is enough, okay? And here's the crazy part. It might surprise you. She doesn't have to prove any of it. Once the defense raises it with credible evidence, the burden flips entirely to the state. So the Commonwealth now has to prove that those two doors don't work for her.

The prosecution does not have to prove that she was criminally responsible beyond a reasonable doubt. What they have to prove is a negative about the insubstance. inside of a woman's mind to the highest standard our law knows. That's a really high bar. And not just the one that people assume, not pointed in the direction that people assume. So how did this happen? Let me go back, 1843, Scottish Wood Turner named Daniel McNaughton. He walks up behind a man in a street in London.

He assumes that he is the prime minister and he shoots him in the back. But he didn't shoot the prime minister. He shoots the prime minister's secretary, a man named Edward Drummond, dies five days later. At the trial, the medical witnesses testified that McNaughton was living inside of delusion that the government was hunting him. And so the jury acquitted him. Now, see if this doesn't sound familiar. England lost its mind, and so did the queen, because Queen Victoria had been shot three times in the last three years at that time. one of those men had been acquitted on insanity as well.

And so she writes to Robert Peel to say, every time this law gets tested, it seems to be of no use to anybody. So the House of Lords, they reach back, they dusted off a medieval power, the right to summon the judges of England and make them answer questions.

So on June 19th, 1843, the judges came, they gave their answers, and those answers, the McNoughton rules, became the test for insanity, across the entire English-speaking world for the next 150 years. Did he know the nature of the act? And if he did, did he know it was wrong?

Two things you should know about how that turned out. First, McNaughton didn't go home. He went to Bedlam for 20 years. He died in Broadmoor in 1865. Not guilty by reason of insanity has never meant not guilty and out the door. Okay? Second, the rules written to punish him would have convicted him. He knew exactly what he was doing.

He was just wrong about who deserved it. America, we have run this same game in our own lifetime. John Hinkley shoots the president in 1981, gets acquitted in 1982, the country erupts. Congress narrows the federal test in 1984, strips out that second door, the one whether or not you could control yourself, and leaves the question of, did you know? Massachusetts never followed, okay? Both doors are still open in Plymouth this week. So here's the hard part.

If Lindsay Clancy was so ill that she could not know what she was doing, then somebody has to explain the file. Because this was not a woman that nobody was watching. In the three months before the children, she killed the children. She was seeing a psychiatrist. She was also seeing a psychiatric nurse practitioner. She was seeing therapist.

She was in an outpatient program. She had been to an emergency room. She spent five days at an inpatient at McLean. This is one of the finest psychiatric hospitals in the world. And she was discharged with a diagnosis, major depressive disorder, severe without psychotic features. Prosecutors wield prescription bottles into the courtroom as evidence. She was taking.

everything. And her treating psychiatrist testified at their last appointment on January 23rd the day before she kills her children, she had no thoughts of hurting herself, no thoughts of hurting anyone else, and that she never in any session ever expressed any plan to harm her children or anybody. So which is it? If the experts are right that she couldn't know, why didn't the experts know? I think there's two answers to this and neither one lets us off. The first one is it's invisible. She hid it. Or that it came to her in hours that no clinician on earth could have ever seen.

And that helps her defense enormously. And frankly, it's the most terrifying version because it means there's no warning to miss. The second is that it was visible, but only in pieces. And nobody ever held all the pieces. Her psychiatrist has testified she never went and got the records from the other practices. The nurse practitioner at the other practice testified she never spoke to the Rhode Island Hospital. She didn't even have the records from McLean. A rebuttal witness this month noted that there were no records that anyone ever ran on her blood

to see how she was metabolizing all of the medications she was on. She was adjusting her own doses over a patient portal. The McLean psychiatrist who said she saw no psychosis, acknowledged on cross-examination, she had never in her career treated a case of postpartum psychosis. So it only happens in one or two in a thousand births. So most physicians never see one. So she had six providers, eight or ten medications, and nobody had the whole file. Now, the law is going to disappoint anyone who wants a villain in a white coat.

Massachusetts, like most states, only imposes a duty to warn when a patient names a threat against an identifiable person or has a violent history. She told every one of them the opposite every time. So legally, that's the end of it. Legally, morally, they're different rooms. If a woman that's sick and that medicated and that fragmented across so many different providers. and the system's answer is, well, I didn't have a duty to wonder. It's, you know, it's not a defense of medicine. That's an indictment of it that nobody's ever going to be sued over. Okay, so nothing happens there. So where do we stand on this?

What does all of this mean? Forget all about all that, because you and I can't decide this. Okay, we're not in the room. We might have opinions on it, but we can't decide it. So what do we talk about? We talk about what's happening on the sidewalk and on your phone. Hundreds of women have shown up outside that courthouse in pink. There's a trend online where moms post a video of themselves with the kids in the background

and the caption saying, same, Lindsay, same what? Same what? Say that whole sentence out loud, will you? because if the answer is that you've been so overwhelmed that you've had thoughts about killing your own children, then put the phone down and call some help. Because that's a medical emergency. That is insanity. There are lawyers already saying they'll pull those videos into custody fights.

And whatever you meant by it, that's where it goes. And then there's the other thing. because a certain part of the internet can't tolerate a tragedy without a villain. So let me give you a couple of these highlights from what we're seeing now online. Here's one defender, cut 15, TikToker says she'll never hate Lindsay Clancy. Listen to this. You are never going to make me hate Lindsay Clancy. We're just not.

I know better than anyone that the government would rather prosecute mothers than ensure they're adequately supported. What? Where does that come from? Where does that come from? What kind of mental illness is that? Where is your evidence of that? First of all, you shouldn't hate Lindsay Clancy. I'm not asking you to hate her. You shouldn't hate her.

You should have empathy. Even if she knowingly did it and is going to prison for murder, you should still have empathy for. What good is hate on her? But she's saying you're never going to make me, because she won't even go there because she's convinced that the government wants to put women in jail and would much rather jail them than help them.

That's mental illness. Okay. Here's the next one. Cut 14. But what does happen every single day is women are failed by the system over and over and over again. And I'm not just talking about the medical system. I'm talking about the systems that exist and fail women. So I'm talking about her family system.

Obviously her family system failed her. husband failed her. Her in-laws failed her. Her parents failed her. I'm also talking about the medical system. It is very... Stop. Stop. Insanity again. The medical system failed her. Her husband failed her. Her whole case is no one knew this. No one knew this. There was no way to spot this. That's her case. how did her husband fail her? See, this is where, you know, when you can't find a villain, you just go look for the nearest person, okay? And that's her husband, Patrick.

There's security footage showing exactly where he was. He was the one who came home. He's the one who made the call. He's the one who publicly has forgiven her. This is the man who lost all three of his children and his wife, his whole world. in one moment. And then strangers looking for a victim,

looking for a villain, decide on the internet that he arranged it. That's mental illness. But this is what happens to a society when we get uncomfortable with the idea that a person can be responsible for something. Blame doesn't evaporate. It just has to relocate.

It goes to the system. When the system won't hold it, It goes to whoever is standing closest. So here's where I land. And I say this is somebody whose own family has walked through mental illness, through suicide, through multiple attempts of suicide, through that long, dark hallway. I have real sympathy. I am not a guy who thinks postpartum psychosis is a story women make up. It's real.

and it is savage and it is missed constantly. As is most mental illness. But the standard has to stay high anyway. It has to say high precisely because it is real. Because a defense that can be reached from ordinary depression and exhaustion is a defense that will eventually be used by people who have neither. High standards are how we keep mercy, meaningful.

Twelve juries have to decide whether the Commonwealth cleared that bar. And I certainly trust them more than I trust the people on the sidewalk. And somebody has to say the last part. Do you notice nobody is wearing pink for Cora? There is no trend or no one wearing blue for Dawson. There's no hashtag for Callan, who is eight months old. Notice nobody's wearing pink for them. our priorities are wrong.

Our compassion is misplaced. Everyone in this story, we should have empathy for and compassion. But we are just lather, rinse, repeat on victimhood and who to blame. This is sickness. Our entire society is sick. More than a minute. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. A few years ago when the opportunity came to challenge Roe versus Wade,

the Alliance defending freedom was there, right there in the thick of it. Just a few months ago, they won a major free speech case at the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of a Christian counselor, Kaylee Childs. And they continue to take on the big business of our time, defending women's sports, protecting parents, pushing back against the expansion of male order abortion drugs, and standing up for God's design for men and women. These battles don't end when the headlines fade. They continue in the courtrooms and the legislature and the communities all across our country. That's why alliance defending freedom relies on people like you.

Your support helps them defend the God-given rights and freedoms that so many Americans have simply taken for granted until now. For a limited time, every dollar you give to ADF will be matched.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

We were just talking about Lindsay Clancy, that case, in Massachusetts. The woman who killed three of her children blew up the whole family. Now we're deciding whether she's responsible or not. The guy who murdered the health care executive, you know, because he had some issues, some complaints. is he really responsible? The people who in the name of BLM burned down, you know, a good portion of a major city in the U.S., were they responsible?

In almost every case in our progressive world now, no one is really responsible. The people who came here illegally, are they responsible or is it ICE? You see, when no one is responsible, somebody else has to be, or some past transgression of 150 years ago is responsible, or the system is responsible.

And that leads to insanity. But there is a very, very simple phrase that everyone knows, everyone agrees with. It comes from Spider-Man, or so you think it does. It comes from Spider-Man, and everybody thinks, oh, yeah, that's absolutely true. But nobody's ever run that backwards. and let me, let me, let me teach the doctrine of the Spider-Man

and show you how this insanity can be stopped that fast when you realize the truth that Stan Lee gets the credit for, but he really isn't the one responsible. I'll explain that here in just a second, because somebody's responsible, who is it? Rapid Radio's, if you own a business, you have probably you probably have an entire category of things you buy for work that becomes completely useless the second you leave work. But communication doesn't have to be one of them. Because the same basic

problem you have Monday through Friday, how do we keep people connected when they're spread out all over? Doesn't magically disappear when the weekend starts. The people just change. And that's what makes rapid radio so useful. During the week, you've got crews working across different job sites. You can use rapid radios to instantly push to talk communication over a nationwide LTV network with custom channels to help you manage your entire fleet, no matter where they are. When Friday comes, use the same rugged waterproof radios that can go straight into the RV or the camping gear. You're hiking, you're camping, you're traveling with your family, doing all the things

where cell phones have an uncanny ability to drop a call exactly when you need them. Rapid radios are still there keeping you connected the whole time. For a limited time, go to rapid radios.com.

Everybody knows, especially with Spider-Man, I'm going to go see the movie this week. I hear it's really, really great. But I was watching Spider-Man noir on a plane. And the line came out with, With great power comes great responsibility. And everybody knows, or they think they know who said that. It was Uncle Ben dying in the street, teaching a kid in Queens the lesson that made him Spider-Man.

Except he never said that. I mean, I did some research on that. Look it up. Go find Amazing Fantasy number 15, August, 1962. That line is not in the dialogue. It's a caption in the last panel over, you know, it's the narrator's voice over the boy walking way in the dark. but Uncle Ben has two lines in that entire comic, and that is not one of them. It got put into his mouth decades later, and now it's carved on every tombstone and every version of the story we've told ever since.

But Stan Lee didn't invent it. The oldest match anyone has found, listen to this, comes from the French Revolution. It's from a decree of the French National Convention, May 8, 1793, written for men who are being sent out into the countryside, with what the document itself calls unlimited power. And they were reminded that great responsibility follows, and it's inseparable, from great power. These were representatives on a mission. Within a year, those people became what we now know as the terror.

They were the guys with a guillotine. So the line is older than the comic, and it was aimed at government, not a teenager, in a mask. But it's true either way. Now, here's what I want you to do. I want you to take that and run it backward. If great power brings great responsibility, this is so eye-opening, then what does no power bring?

No power brings no responsibility. No responsibility. Nothing is your fault. Nothing is your job. You can't be blamed for the border, the debt, the schools, the rot in your own town, the killing of your own children, because what could you do? What could you have possibly done? Now, that's not a curse.

It sounds like a vacation, and it is the oldest sales pitch on earth, and we've been here before. Now, please stick with me because it's all going to make sense in the end, but let me tell you some history. in an Athenian courtroom, a free man gave testimony under oath, and his word stood on his own. You're never going to forget this lesson once you'll learn it. But a slave's word was worth nothing. Under the law, a slave's testimony could only be entered into evidence if it was extracted under torture. What? Rome kept the same rule, okay?

the man standing right there. He saw the whole thing, but the court could not take his word until they tortured him. Now, we hear this and we think savagery, but it's because we don't understand the logic beneath it. And it's the logic that I want you to see. Because I spend some time on my vacation,

I learned this and I'm like, wait a minute, wait a minute, what? The oath is only worth something from a man who can be held to it. You break your word as a free citizen. What happens to you? You lose your name. You lose your standing. You might lose your business.

You might lose your place in society. You might lose your freedom and go to jail. But a slave has none of that to lose. He couldn't own anything. He couldn't sign anything. He couldn't be sued. He could, he could. What?

You're going to, you're going to run my name into the mud? I'm a slave. He had nothing. Nothing was his. is. He had no power, so he had no responsibility. Having no responsibility, there was nothing binding his word, so they had to burn it out of him instead. So read the ladder from the bottom. No power, no responsibility. No honor. No honor, no word. A man whose word means nothing is not a man in the room, he's furniture that talks.

And that's the whole problem with slavery. That's the whole architecture. That's the slave's job inside. It was, slave's job is simple. Obey. Study the faces of the powerful so you know which way the wind is blowing before it starts to turn. That's not a life.

That's weather forecasting. All to just stay alive. Okay. So why am I telling you? you this history and talking about Spider-Man with everything that's going on. Because this is truly everything we're facing. It's everything we're facing in the Lindsay Clancy case. Everything we're facing. Let me take you one more step. Let me tell you about a slave and his freedom. When a Roman freed a slave, the ceremony was very short. A judge took a stick, a rod, and laid it on the man's

head. They shaved his head and they put a cap on him. Okay. It was a plain felt cap. It was undied. It was brimless. It was a cheap hat. It was a working man's hat. You could buy one in every market in any empire. But the meaning was this. This man is free. So what did the cap actually get him? Really nothing. You get the cap. All you get is responsibility. You could now own property. You could now sign a contract. You could now be sued. You could be ruined by your own bad decisions. And in court, nobody laid a hand on you. You raised your hand and you swore, and the clerk wrote it down like anybody else's. It didn't have to be burned out of you anymore. That was the gift. It wasn't comfort, not safety. It was liability. You now had responsibility.

of liberty was now everything's your fault. You could be sued for it. You can be jailed for it. All of it. Congratulations, you're free. 17 centuries later, Revolutionaries stuck it on a pole and called it the cap of liberty. It is a colonial icon. It sat on Liberty's head on our earliest copper cent. She didn't have the crown. She didn't have the rays of light. It was a cap. It's on the seal of the United States Senate. It's on the emblem of the army. It's on six seals of our states. You have carried a free slave's hat around in your pocket, your entire life. You didn't know it and you called it liberty. So now listen to what you're being told every single day. The problem's too big. The system's rig.

you're only one person. Your vote doesn't matter. You're not an expert. Who are you? You don't have a degree. What college did you graduate from? The credentials that you have? You have no credentials. The money, the platform, the training, all of it. Life is complicated. This is complicated. Leave it to the people who understand it. What do all of those sentences end? They all end with the same four words. Whether or they're spoken or not, they all end with the same four words, and it's the key to everything. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. High prices are here to stay. Gas, groceries, insurance, and if you're a homeowner, you've probably thought, should I call American financing to refinance and pay off this credit card debt? And then you second guess yourself because of your current low mortgage rate. Listen, that low rate, it's not saving you if you're drowning in credit card interest at 25% or more.

That's the math nobody wants to face. But it's costing you thousands, and here's the truth. If you're only making minimum payments, that debt will follow you for years. That's why people are calling American financing because they're saving customers an average of $800 a month by using their equity to finally break free from credit card debt. You owe it to your family to see what's possible. No upfront fees, no pressure, and it costs you nothing to find out if you could save something big every month. And if you start today, you may be able to delay up to two mortgage payments.

So call American Financing, 800, 906, 2440. That's 800906 2440 or visit Americanfinancing.net. and a good friend of the program, a good friend of America, and a good friend of mine. Ezra, what is this actually all about? Glenn, great to see you, and it's great to talk to so many Americans about what goes on between our two countries. You know, we're the best friends, Canada and the United States, is even hard to tell us apart, sometimes world's longest undefended border.

You can't even tell sometimes which side you're on. But we've got a new prime minister. I call him Justin Trudeau 2.0. but it's like the next Terminator in the series. He's smarter and harder working than Trudeau. But he's a globalist deep in his bones. He has three citizenship, not just Canadian. He's also an Irish citizen and a British citizen.

In fact, he lived in London until two years ago. He has repeatedly said he thinks that Canada is the most European country other than those actually in Europe. he talks about pivoting away from the United States. But he also trashes the United States, but he's moved a major business to America. So I don't even know who he is. His wife and kids are down there.

He was the chairman of something called Brookfield Asset Management, which is a slightly smaller Black Rock. His last move as chairman was to move the headquarters from Toronto to New York. But let me tell you what has, he's always believed in, and I'll give you some proof. He has always believed in replacing America as the hyperpower. He believed in a multipolar world where power shifts away. Let me give you an example. In 2019, Mark Carney was the head of the Bank of England. He gave a speech, which you can find

on their website to this day, where he talked about how do we get the world to stop using US dollars as the currency of choice. How do we get to, well, his suggestion, the Chinese renmin B. And he had this 20-page speech where he talked about how it was critical to move the world off of U.S. dollars to reduce U.S. domineering,

that was the word he used, for a new world order. That was the word he used. So he's been an anti-American for a long time. He was a trustee of the World Economic Forum, so he's a globalist in the mold of George Soros. And just last year, he went to Beijing,

met with Xi Jinping, who he met with before in his job at Brookfield. And he declared in public on camera that he wants Canada to be part of the China-led New World Order. If I put all these things to you that he's a man with three passports, he thinks of himself as not as a citizen of the world, He has dreamed about displacing America as the powerful nation, and he chose to scupper a free trade agreement with America in favor of a China-centric world order.

Now what he's doing makes a lot more sense. And I fear that he is driving Canada away from America, and you know who noticed that? There's a Chinese propaganda outlet called Global Times. It's one of their English language propaganda forums. They were so thrilled with the fact that Carney walked away from the free trade deal. They called it a China-style response. And they noted that China and Canada stand alone against America. Glenn, we can talk for as long as you like about the details.

But the headline is globalist prime minister of Canada, tries to realign the country towards China away from America. I got 100 proof points for you, but that's the real story. I'm going to get into transshipment tomorrow because I think it's really, really important. But let me just quickly just say, transshipment is one of our sticking points.

And what it means is you can't Canada, can't import something from China, then replace the made in China, put a made-in Canada label on it, and sell it to us. It's extraordinarily dangerous and really bad for Canada to do that as well.

And he wants... You see the point here. Yeah, that's exact. Transshipment is a huge thing, Glenn. I'm happy to talk about it today because China now sees Canada as an entry point, not just into the U.S. market,

but in that Global Times propaganda piece yesterday, they noted that Canada is part of the Five Eyes security group. You know what I mean? sort of like the super friends of NATO. It's like the best buddies, Canada, the United States, UK, Australia, New Zealand.

France is not in it. Germany is not in it. This is for true allies. And in that Global Times, Chinese propaganda piece, they mentioned, they said that Canada is a former close ally. And they say it's quite noteworthy that Canada is rebuffing America

even though it still has this deep access. So China, China can't believe their luck. They couldn't keep it to themselves. They boasted about this. Not only is Carney allowing Chinese steel to sneak in, be relabeled and then shipped at dumping prices into America. But I don't know if you know this, Glenn.

Last year, I mentioned when Carney went to China and announced that he was joining the Chinese New World Order, he threw them a bone that had never been given to them before. He said, China, you can sell into Canada. Canada, 49,000 electric vehicles a year, and that's going to go up. You know what an electric vehicle is, though. It's like an iPhone with wheels. It's got so many sensors.

It is a data collector. Those are 49,000 spyware vehicles being dumped into Canada. First of all, it's 49,000 cars that won't be made in Canadian factories. But those are spy mobiles, like sort of the Google, Google Street view. Like they will scoop up everything in their site. The U.S. ambassadors already said, don't expect to drive those across the border into the states. Why would Carney let that in?

Why would Carney do that to our own auto industry? Why would he do that provocation to the Americans? Well, he wants to join the Chinese-led New World Order. He actually used those words, Glenn. So the Canadian people, though, are for it. I mean, the Canadian, he's not leading the Canadians where they don't want to go. The popularity of this move is very high.

Well, a terrible thing is happening. What are we going to do? You know, Canada and the United States, like I say, we really are best friends. But 200 years ago, I mean, 250 years ago, America broke free, and a lot of what they called the United Empire loyalists moved up to Canada. So let's say you were on the wrong side,

the losing side of the American Revolution. You could stick around or you could go north. And so an enormous number of, of passionate monarchists went north to Canada, and there was always a bit of an anti-American vibe. It was always under the surface, because that's the history. Then you had the War of 1812, et cetera. So there is a bit of an anti-Americanism

that's always been there. It flared up under Pierre Trudeau, because he would always go to Cuba, and he would taunt America, flared up again under Justin Trudeau. So it's beneath the service, and Mark Carney has gone to work on that wound with some salt and sandpaper and he has rubbed it raw.

And for all of Donald Trump's flourishes, you know, he gives people nicknames and he uses taunts. 50 first date. Like it's part of his personality. Yeah. And that prickles Canadians because we're sensitive. But holy smokes has the invective coming back being off the hook. I don't know if you've seen any of the clips of the Premier of Ontario,

the largest province. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I don't want to swear on your show, but the things that he was saying are shocking and there's the premier of the province of manitoba who has actually i don't even want to say his accusation he accused trump of being a pedophile this is a this is the equivalent of a governor of a state like they the insane invective and it's whipping things up into a fury and you know what happened mark carney tattled first he ran to the teacher in the schoolyard with his

version first and Canadians bought it. So Mark Carney said the reason we didn't get the trade deal is because Donald Trump wants to destroy our sovereignty. The reason we didn't get the trade deal is because Donald Trump attacked French Canadians in Quebec. So Canadians heard this from our prime minister and said, oh my God, that's exactly what we thought Trump would do. We're angry at America. We're angry at Trump and we're happy we didn't sign this trade deal. Go Carney, boo America. But the thing is, he ran and tattled with his side of the story first, but it turns out it wasn't true. Let me give you two quick points on that. It is true that the United States has said to Canada, we don't want you to be able to sign a trade deal with non-market economies like

China if you're in this USMCA. Because what would happen is just what you talked about with the transshipment of steel. If Canada were to do a trade deal with China, China, that would again give them an entry into the U.S. market. So our U.S.MCA trade deal since 2018 has had a provision in it saying that any country can veto any other country, Canada, Mexico, U.S., can each veto each other if they want to do a deal with China or other non-market economies. So that has been in the deal for eight years. Last week, Mark Carney says it's an outrage.

Trump wants to take away our sovereignty and our right to do. free trade with people around the world. Who does he think he is? Well, I don't know. All three countries signed the treaty because they all understood that China was a threat. Do you see what I mean? It was a mischaracterization of an old provision. Mark Carney was making it seem like Donald Trump was trying to boss Canada around,

but it was something all three countries Canada, Mexico, U.S. agreed to. Last point, I'll stop. I know I'm ranting, but I want to show you the deceptiveness with which Mark Carney has tried to turn the Canadian people against America. You know that a quarter of Canada are French-speaking Quebecers. And they're a little bit sensitive to the fact that they're a minority. There's a small minority in a huge continent of North America. The French language and French culture, they're worried it's going to be in decline.

And you can understand that. They want to keep their roots. So Mark Carney says, I defended Quebec. Donald Trump wanted to attack the French culture, the French Canadian culture, and I won't accept that. Oh, really? And again, in your mind, if you've been fed anti-Trump propaganda your whole life, it's easy to imagine. Trump is disparaging the Quebec people. Well, it turns out that Carney was again misrepresenting what happened.

Canada was demanding that Netflix and other U.S. streaming companies pay a 5% tax and that that money would be given to Canadian competitors of Netflix, including in the French language. and your U.S. trade representative, Jameson Greer, said, well, that's just a tax, that's an unfair tax. We have no problem with Quebec culture. You just can't tax American companies in a discriminating way for that. So it wasn't an attack on anyone or any culture or any language. It was the United States saying, sorry, you can't put a Netflix tax in your country for any reason.

And you see what Mark Carney did? It was a tax dispute. Carney said, no, no, no. he hates Quebecers. He wants to attack our French people and I'll defend them. It's that deceptiveness. But the Canadian media has, it's a trumped arrangement pandemic up here, Glenn.

And so I'm worried, go ahead. I'd be ranting. You go jumping. No, no, no, no. I want to just take a quick break. I've got one minute. I've got to take a break. And I'll come back and I just want to hit because I think we're in the same point of view, but this is going to play out. It's going to be bad for Americans, it's going to be bad for Canadians.

I think it's going to be worse for you guys than us. But we have an election. So how much of this is just election and how much of this pain are the people of Canada willing to take? I mean, I know we're pretty wimpy, but Canada, you've already got your housing cost, your medical cost. Everything is out of control in Canada, much worse than it is here. how much, how long can he pull this game and expect to get away with it. We'll talk some more here with Ezra in just a minute. And remember, one of the things that Mark Carney wants to do is get rid of our reserve

When a decision gets made about your health care, who's in the room?

Because it's not just you and your doctor. It's your insurance company. They have files on you, pages of it. And here's the part it should bother you. It's not always accurate. Somebody from this audience found this out. He called Chapter, the only Medicare advisor that I trust, because his cost kept climbing and nobody would tell him why.

His Chapter Advisor dug in and found the record that they were using on him, and it was flat out wrong. So she corrected it and went back to work finding him better options. Nobody else is going to do that. That's the difference. That's Chapter. Their advisors aren't paid to push one plan over another. They're on your side of the table.

They compare every Medicare plan nationwide. They have found people an average of $1,100 a year in health care savings. And the call is completely free. It'll take you about 20 minutes. Talk to Chapter today. Dial pound 250. Say the keyword chapter. That's pound 250.
