I went platinum seven times.
It's still the ill that want to see us rise.
I guess because the only God knows why.
Why? Why? Why?
This is wild.
Thank you.
Oh, I love it.
Thank you for having me.
I've never spoken in a cooler place in my life.
I cannot believe I'm in a hockey arena in Edmonton, Canada in January.
This is just, this is the coolest.
My friend Theo Fleury is here, which kind of adds to the authenticity of it.
Go Theo Fleury.
Thank you.
I am thrilled to be here. Alberta, that's exactly right.
Al-freaking-berta, as we call it. I was so excited to be here that I actually called the CBC
and I said, I'm in town, which they were aware of, and I'd love to talk to you.
I'd love to talk to as many Canadians as possible and I talked we talked to a very nice guy I
think he's new there and he's like sure and we call back and and they actually
we were speaking Calgary earlier and they had a CBC guy there and I said look
I would love to talk to the CBC. I'll answer any question you like, and I dare you to put it on TV.
No.
And I wasn't just outraged
because there's a state media organization
that's totally opposed to free speech,
which is a little weird
since the media should be the defenders
of the things that make their careers possible.
But it also offended me personally because i feel like i have some ownership of the cbc not because
i'm a canadian taxpayer because i am secretly and i never reveal this part canadian and i am i am
and i wouldn't say this honestly to an audience in los angeles or new york or denver because i
don't want to be singled out you know or treated differently but it's actually
true my dad's family's from Nova Scotia and I've actually we had a place in Nova
Scotia my whole life until a few years ago when we sold it to a guy called
Gerald Cotton who mysteriously died sort of of colitis in India with the keys to like a billion dollars in Bitcoin.
And the New York Times called me
and suggested that I was in on his Bitcoin scam,
which for the record, I'm not.
But anyway, I have ties to this country
and I spent a lot of my life coming here
and I just love it.
And that's why I'm here.
And I mean that.
And I like Canada because I understand what Canada is,
and it's not, I'm not attacking Toronto, if I'm pronouncing it correctly. By the way,
I mispronounce all Canadian names just to infuriate people and see if I can make them laugh, but they never do. I'm an Alberta, Calgary, Ottawa, in Kanata. And no one ever, thank you for laughing.
I love that.
Everyone accused the Canadians of being humorless.
They're just too polite to laugh in public.
So, but thank you.
And I called it Ottawa many, many times
and I would get these outrages.
You don't even know enough about our country
to pronounce the name correctly.
And of course it was intentional
until I received a very sincere email from an Ojibwa First Nations leader who said, actually, it's called a tawa.
And they've been mispronouncing it all these years.
I'm not making that up.
And if you have any Ojibwa friends, ask them.
Yeah, it's a tawa.
So your creepy prime minister can put on the costumes of other cultures, but he doesn't really understand them.
But I'll be honest.
There are two things that I like about Canada,
and both are totally sincere.
This is not a pander.
One, I like the physical country.
I think it's the prettiest country in the world.
And I mean that.
And I've been all over it. And no one in Canada talks about it, actually. You know, they talk about
cool things about Canada, but they never mention the fact that it's prettier than Switzerland.
And it's the second biggest country in the world. And there are only 40 million people in it.
And I think that's the greatest, I think that's the greatest ratio I can imagine.
And I hear your friends in Ottawa saying,
we've got to make this country as packed as Bangladesh
because, you know, a crowded country is a happy country.
And I think to myself, you're really sick, actually.
I've been in places in Labrador and northern Quebec
that I'm not sure another human being has ever been to.
You know, your mountain's not far from here.
You go there and there's like not another person around,
just you and what God made.
And it's just the most inspiring, edifying experience.
And I, if I were prime minister of Canada,
I would mandate, I would, I would take some public lands
and I would allocate them to the entire 40 million
who live here and I would say, everybody gets six acres.
And I command that you spend at least a week there.
I mean it.
And get out of your little cube
with your food delivery and your weed
and your stupid internet service
and go sit in the dirt
in God's most beautiful country and enjoy it.
And then you'll understand what Canada is.
I mean it.
I mean it.
And go catch a trout
and you don't have to kill it, but catch it.
And see the kind of fish or a walleye. You don't have to go shoot a moose, though you can.
But you should know the country that you live in. And you shouldn't just be clustered near
the border of like Detroit. what? Spread out a little.
And people who have a little bit of contact
with the natural world and the animals that live in it
are a little bit clearer thinking, I have to say.
And I met a bunch of them tonight in the photo line.
And you could just feel the vibe coming off them.
These are people who are taking the long view on life
because they
know what it is, you know, and they know how precious it is and they know how little control
they have. Because when you farm, you really don't have control. And I don't care how many agronomy
degrees you have or how clever you are in your planning. In the end, you don't control the
weather. Despite, you know, the really fierce attempts of the U.S. government to control the
weather, they don't. And neither does Justin Trudeau.
He doesn't because he's not God.
I don't want to blow his mind or anything.
And when you realize that you're not God,
you have hit upon the root of all wisdom.
I am not God.
All goodness flows from that realization.
If you don't reach that conclusion,
then in the end,
you find yourself very tempted to commit genocide. Because it's true. And everyone who has has
reached the conclusion, the same conclusion, I am God. So let's just start there. So anyway,
I love this country. And I admire its natural resources. And I think you could have one of
the greatest economies in the world with a population of 40 million and some of the deepest energy reserves in the world and mineral deposits in the world. And I've been
to a lot of your extraction sites, I'm just saying. And, you know, extraction is an ugly
business by its nature, but Canadians, true to form, have really done their best to make it as
tidy and respectful as they can. And I've seen it. I've seen it firsthand. You've never seen more conscientious
energy extraction than in Canada. They like apologize for taking it out. It's great.
So I love that. And the other thing I love about Canada are the people. And I love the thing that
other people mock Canadians for, which is their politeness. Their sort of Anglo commitment to
never offending you no matter
what, no matter how much they hate you. Even the CBC today, they were sort of apologizing for
calling me a Nazi, like, well, we'd love to have you on, but we have to have another meeting and
got to do another segment on intersectionality. And obviously, they know that I'm a racist because
I don't believe in climate change and I'm not trans, because that makes sense.
And that's the sum total of their entire programming schedule.
Flip on to the CBC.
By the way, oh, in breaking news, you're a racist.
Eh?
Yeah.
So obviously, they're loathsome and bent on my destruction, but they're very polite about it, which I appreciate.
I do, because I believe in, oh, there's Theo Flory right there. Without my glasses, but they're very polite about it, which I appreciate. I do, because I believe in,
oh, there's Theo Flory right there.
Without my glasses, I see him.
And I appreciate that.
I do appreciate that.
And I strive to be a politer person,
and I'm not always,
and I obviously can offend people and use profanity,
but in my heart, as an Anglo, honestly,
I really strive to be polite.
And you all pull it off in a way
that's just remarkable and admirable.
And thank you for that, for adding to the sum total of civility in the world.
But thank you. But here's my concern. And it's part of a larger concern that
people's best qualities are leveraged against them.
And that what unscrupulous people in power do,
if they're smart,
is they don't dispatch an army of young men
in tight uniforms to goose step through your town
because it's a little bit too obvious.
You've seen that movie.
And you sort of know what happens next.
You take up arms, you form a resistance,
you drive the people out and freedom returns, right?
You guys have seen that movie.
It's been done about 50,000 times.
And oh, if only that's what we were facing
because that is straightforward.
That's the kind of masculine expression of fascism.
But the West is now facing a far slyer opponent,
which is the feminine expression of fascism. But the West is now facing a far slayer opponent, which is the feminine expression of fascism. The Chrystia Freeland version of fascism. Yes. Yes. And
I know a lot about this because I knew Chrystia Freeland when she, you know, was
a journalist at the Financial Times, whose name shall forever live in infamy
for employing her.
And I remember even then thinking,
this woman is not bright at all.
But boy, does she have high self-esteem.
I don't think I've ever even seen,
it's off, I don't know what the self-esteem
measurement scale is, the Richter scale.
But her self-esteem was literally unassailable.
It was bomb-proof.
If a nuclear bomb dropped on your town,
you could hide beneath Chrystia Freeland's self-esteem and live.
There's like nothing you could do to shake it. Nothing. No amount of evidence of her stupidity
and wrong decisions and idiotic views could dissuade her from the core belief that she
was awesome and you were not. And I kind of stood back in admiration. So I guess I
shouldn't be totally shocked that she's helping to run and destroy your country. But she's doing it
in her signature way. She's not getting on the CBC, her media outlet, which like almost all
outlets in this wonderful oppressed country, is run by the government. It's all state media. It's
Albania, 1985. And I'm sure we have people whose families were refugees from Albania. Welcome.
And you know what I'm talking about. But at least you could say of the Albanian leader in 1985,
Enver Hoxha, that when he went full fascist, he just like didn't mince words. Shut up and obey
or we'll shoot you. Chrystia Freeland is wise enough, clever enough,
in her serpent-like way,
to make it all about your protection and safety.
All about your protection and safety.
No, we're just trying to help you.
That's why you're in shackles.
You're being arrested right now for your safety.
Oh, it's for the common good.
Don't worry, you'll understand.
I always want to say, Mrs. Freeland, can I go to the bathroom?
No, no, you can't.
And you can just imagine her taking great glee
as your fourth grade self wet his pants in class
as Mrs. Freeland refuses to let you go to the bathroom.
So that's kind of more diabolical than what we've seen in previous generations,
and it's much more effective in a committedly polite country like Canada,
because you don't know that it's happening.
And because a demagogue like that, or your completely bizarre, cross-dressing prime minister...
It's true. Prime minister blackface.
I didn't wear a blackface. He did.
Three times, thank you. Three times. And I want to thank you for your commitment to the facts.
The prime minister, right, the prime minister, their attack on your rights, which is
an attack on you and your children, is cloaked in the language of therapy, self-help, and compassion.
You're doing this for the common good. Don't you care about the elderly?
And of course, being a decent person, you care very deeply about the elderly
and the weakest in your society, of course.
So what you don't realize
is you shuffle off to abandon another God-given right
to a totalitarian government
is that this is not being done
on behalf of a marginalized group
or the weakest among us or the elderly.
They hijacked the language of the gospel
to crush the gospel. That's exactly what they're doing.
And it's hard to sort of see this when you're right in the middle of it. If you ever had a
friend who was married to an alcoholic and gets divorced and everyone comes up and is like, wow,
your spouse was a raging drunk. And oftentimes the spouse is like, didn't really know.
If you live with someone whose behavior
is completely off the chain,
sometimes you're not aware of it
because you're too close to it.
So let me just tell you from my perspective
as a foreigner, a semi-foreigner,
with some Canadian blood in my veins,
what I'm seeing.
And here are the markers for the malice that undergirds
these expressions of false compassion.
We're just trying to help.
Really? They're trying to help?
How does it help you or your family
when the government of British Columbia
gives fentanyl to your children
without your knowledge?
That is literally happening right now.
And it's been stopped by the premier here, who's not giving fentanyl to children. Amen. Bravo.
Hard to believe you even have to say that. But it is happening right down the road,
right over the mountains in British Columbia. What is that? It's not an expression of compassion.
Fentanyl is the number one killer
of people under 40 in the United States.
Number one.
There's no safe dosage of fentanyl.
It's a poison.
Manufactured in Mexico with Chinese precursors,
designed to kill people, and it does.
And so to hand that to children
without their parents' knowledge is what?
An attempt to kill your children.
What else could it be? That's not compassion.
There's no other way to read that.
And I just fear if you're in the middle of a society
that says that's okay, or it's on the spectrum of okay,
it's something that we should consider,
you may lose sight of the fact
that that's not only completely unacceptable,
it's a declaration of war against you and your children. People who
are trying to kill your children are not your friend. They're your sworn blood enemy. Is there
another way to interpret that? Am I being crazy? I don't think that I am. And in less developed
countries, this would be very obvious. Go try that in Burkina Faso. I'm serious. Show up in
Ouagadougou next week with a briefcase full of fentanyl and say, I'm going to pass this out to
the neighborhood kids, but I'm not going to tell the parents. Those would be your last words.
You would be ripped apart. You're coming to kill my children? No. They don't even have electricity in parts of Burkina Faso,
but they have a gut level sense
that your primary duty on this earth
is to protect your children.
If you can't protect your children,
and not even spiritually or intellectually, just physically,
then who are you? You're a husk. You're a shameful husk.
That's what you are. There's no greater dereliction.
There's no worse abandonment than leaving your children to be harmed in the hands of others.
So, obviously, try that in Eastern Europe.
Even Eastern Europe, which does have electricity.
And by the way, no homelessness or graffiti or public drug use.
How are they pulling that off? Amazing.
I guess Bucharest, Romania is a lot more advanced than New York City now.
Because they won't put up with it.
And they won't put up with the tax on their own children.
Because they haven't been socialized to the point where they've lost their souls.
That's the truth.
The maid program, which nobody wants to talk about because nobody, and again,
this is not an attack, it's a compliment.
People here, I'm from a very similar culture,
don't want to talk about things
that make other people uncomfortable.
So what I'd really like is a Christmas dinner
among the Episcopalians
where there's a lot of sort of semi-drunk,
sullen silentness. You know what I mean? As people kind of secretly resent each other,
but no one can say anything about it. Apparently, you know, at some point,
someone gets drunk enough just to say, I hate you. Everyone puts their heads down again. No Frills delivers.

The government of Canada is killing Canadians,
and not just a few, and not just the terminally ill.
Over 50,000.
50,000!
Any organization that kills 50,000 people
is a genocidal organization.
Period! Any organization that kills 50,000 people is a genocidal organization. Period.
And I don't care how you dress it up.
That's just a fact.
That's like a bottom line on a chart.
How many people have you killed?
Oh, 50,000.
Oh, you're not in the good guy category.
Sorry, we can't.
We're going to bring you up at the hague
actually where you should be
and now under consideration apparently next month is a plan to expand the made program
the systematic killing of canadians not all of whom are terminally ill, many of whom are just sad because Canadian society has made them sad, they're going to expand that to children.
And that's the point at which you have to say, I'm sorry, we're not going to be polite anymore.
You literally can't do that. And I don't care if someone, you don't need to be, by the way,
a religious freak to think it's wrong for a government to kill people at scale.
And I don't care choice, they'll dress it up. No, it's totally evil is the truth. And it's deeply revealing of who they are and what they want. It's deeply revealing. The standard of
living in Canada, which secretly a lot of, no American would ever tell you this because no
American ever wants to think about Canada or admit that there are things about Canada that
are cooler than the United States, including Iraqis, by the way, which are better. Sorry.
But one of the things Canada always had was this incredibly robust middle class. It didn't have
these super jagged wealth distributions that the United States had. It was much more like Scandinavia than Dallas.
And I personally always liked that.
I did.
I mean, the downside was some of your, you know,
most energetic people left
because they wanted to become billionaires,
but a lot of really smart people stayed
because they liked being around people like them
and their neighbors and whatever.
That is dying before your eyes.
The Canadian standard of living is in free fall at exactly the moment when Canada is importing
more people per capita than any nation in the world. It's the highest immigration rate in the
world. So this is something that no Canadian will talk about. And you have to ask why.
Well, there are two reasons. The first reason is,
aforementioned, they don't want to offend anybody and it's touchy and no one wants to be called a
racist. It has nothing to do with race. It has everything to do with population numbers and the
strain on available resources, public and private. Housing prices, for example, your healthcare system
of which you were once so proud. It's so overburdened that it's easier to get into the MAID program than it is to schedule a surgery. It's easier to be killed
by the government than healed by the government. That's true. Look it up. So it's at exactly that
point that they're like, oh, our country is underpopulated. In what sense? Who decided
Canada was underpopulated? The second
biggest country in the world with 40 million people in it? That sounds like paradise to me.
Are you joking? And they're nice people. What is going on? The second reason no one wants to talk
about it in Canada is because immigration has been a good thing for Canada over the years. Some of
the coolest people in the world have moved to Canada and the United States, by the way.
Immigration is not bad.
Immigration can, many people here are the product of fairly recent immigration.
It's good.
But like anything in the temporal world,
it's not all good.
It can be good.
It can also be really bad.
It can enhance your country.
It can destroy your country.
Choose.
So if you have an immigration policy that makes your country stronger, your economy stronger, your country. It can destroy your country. Choose. So if you have an immigration policy
that makes your country stronger,
your economy stronger,
your country more cohesive,
amen.
And you have had that for generations.
And everybody in Canada is happy about that.
That's not what you have now.
You have the wholesale importation
of millions of people into your country
for no obvious benefit at exactly the time
when your housing prices are so out of control. Like, can your kids afford a house?
This is true in my country, too. And so the question you have to ask is, why is the government
doing this? Is there an economic case to be made? Maybe there is. I've never heard it.
Maybe there's some central planner who's decided this is going to make us all much happier and
much more prosperous
They don't even attempt to convince you of that
They just shout slogans in your face. And if you ask a question, they call you a racist and if you say but i'm actually not
a racist
And i'm not speaking for myself. I just want to know the answer. Why are you doing this?
Without the consent of the governed it's a decision you made unilaterally and they won't answer your question
Diversity is our strength. Okay, that may be true, it may not be true. I don't know.
It's a metaphysical question, actually.
But in practical terms,
why do we have the highest immigration rate in the world?
Shut up!
And of course, the answer is political power.
Political power.
This is a democracy.
Your citizenship entitles you to choose your leaders.
Your vote is valuable
because there's a finite supply of those votes.
It's very much unlike the Canadian dollar.
Right?
Or the U.S. dollar,
which in a pinch they can just print more of.
And then the Canadian dollars you have in your pocket
are worth less.
Do you know anything about this?
Have you heard this principle before?
It's called supply and demand. And if you misuse it, if you ignore the most basic law of economics,
you wind up with, repeat after me, inflation, with which you are familiar. Just inflation.
The same principle holds for citizenship in a democracy. And if you don't like the way that
the public votes,
import new voters, and that's precisely what they're doing.
They're doing that in the United States as well,
and here's my point.
You're taking it because no one's saying anything,
and I'm just warning you that if this was a mistake,
if these were policies formulated by people
who actually loved you and had just gone off course and we're doing the wrong thing as you often do with your
kids if you have children you often make the wrong decision with your kids but
you're brought back on course by your love for your children so over time you
make the right decisions because you're animated for a desire to protect them
because you love them but if you hated your children all of your mistakes would
be in one direction,
and that direction would be toward destruction.
And there is zero evidence
that the Trudeau government loves you,
and there's overwhelming evidence
that they hate you and your families.
How is that not true?
If liberal and NDP politicians
are sending fentanyl to your children,
if they're trying to add your children
to the list of people who can be killed by the state,
who aren't even terminally ill,
if they are changing the composition of your country
without asking your permission,
if every communication you have with the Tawa
is a lecture about your moral deficiencies,
you're a bad person. Shut up, racist.
There's no love at all.
There's only contempt.
And the reason I'm saying this is not to upset anyone
or hurt anyone's feelings, but it's very important.
It's the most important thing to understand the terms
of the debate and the consequences of its outcome.
It's one of the saddest things about this country.
The country's getting sicker.
Despite all of our wealth and technology,
Americans aren't doing well overall.
Obesity, heart disease, autoimmune conditions,
all kinds of horrible chronic illnesses,
weird cancers are all on the rise.
Probably a lot of reasons for this,
but one of them definitely is
Americans don't eat very well anymore.
They don't eat real food.
Instead, they eat industrial substitutes,
and it's not good.
It's time for something new,
and that's where masa chips come in.
Masas decide to revive real food by creating snacks
how they used to be made, how they're supposed to be made.
A masa chip has just three simple ingredients,
not 117, three.
No seed oils, no artificial additives,
just real delicious food. And I know
this because we eat a ton of them in my house. And by the way, I feel great. So you can still
continue to snack, but you can do it in a healthy way with chips without feeling guilty about it.
Masa chips are delicious. They taste how a tortilla chip is supposed to taste. But the
thing is you can hit them really, really hard, and I have, and not feel bloated or sluggish after.
You feel like you've done something decent for your body.
You don't feel like you got a head injury or you don't feel filled with guilt.
You feel light and energetic.
It's the kind of snack your grandparents ate.
Worth bringing back.
So you can go to MasaChips.com.
Masa is M-A-S-A, by the way.

We enjoy them. You will too.
These are high stakes questions. You thought Quebec separatism was a big deal. This is a big
deal, what you're living through. And not just you, but the entire West. These exact issues mirror
those throughout the Anglosphere. That would include the United States,
and the UK, and Australia, and New Zealand.
And for reasons that I can't fully comprehend,
because I am not God,
these trends are present in all of those countries
at exactly the same time.
And those countries are,
they are on the brink of becoming not salvageable because the people who live in them have been completely broken and led astray, misled by their leaders and ultimately replaced by their leaders.
And that's not a conspiracy theory.
It's a fact based on the numbers.
And anyone who tells you, oh, that's a racist conspiracy theory, It's a fact based on the numbers. And anyone who tells you,
oh, that's a racist conspiracy theory,
lay out the numbers for them.
What are we looking at?
What's the justification for this?
Why are you doing this?
As the people who were born here languish
and decide it's better to die than to keep living here,
why aren't you helping?
So here's my advice.
First thing you need to do, I think, in this country is figure out a way to
tell people what's happening. I would do it in a very Canadian style, in a non-inflammatory,
highly rational, super polite, nice, but also uncompromising way. These are the stakes.
This is the truth. I'm going to stand on the truth. Unfortunately, you don't have,
you have a couple of wonderful media outlets who I've spent a lot of time with in this country,
but they're small and they should be huge. All of your media. Yeah, that's right. That's what I was
thinking of. All of your media, with only a few exceptions, are controlled by the state. It's not
just CDC, CBC. We have an institution in our country called the CDC,
which is almost as sinister.
But you need a way for Canadians to know what's happening
and to understand.
You need a way.
And it can't just be about Justin Trudeau,
who's, if I can just say, so absurd, that that guy's gonna sashay off into history fairly soon,
I think.
Because, I mean, honestly, someone told me last night,
I was talking to someone,
to one of your countrymen at dinner last night,
and Justin Trudeau is, who I've never met,
though I know his cousin Gavin Newsom,
but he's so,
he's so ridiculous.
He's so transparently phony.
I mean, I just, I'm mesmerized watching him.
And so my very obvious, as a foreigner,
question at dinner was, does anyone believe him?
And everyone at the table said, oh, yeah, young people do.
And I hope that's not true.
No, it's not true.
But the point is, there can't be more than 20% of Canadians who think he's not repulsive because he's just so obviously repulsive.
Would you leave your kids with him?
Would you be like, oh, you know, we're going to go to canadian tire for an hour oh justin can you
watch my kids i don't think you're going to do that but you hand him your country is totally
cool don't worry he's a good steward um but he will collapse under the weight of his own
ludicrousness and go back to cuba or do whatever he does but
what and go back to Cuba or do whatever he does. But...
What?
You know, I don't know if that's true or not,
but it's just too great to check.
Though if I ever meet him, I'm gonna demand a 23andMe,
like, right away.
But he will...
He will disappear from the world stage,
and I don't think history's gonna treat him well, and he'll probably be a university professor
or work for Bill Gates or something equally ignominious.
But the problem won't end there,
because he is part of a structure that is itself rotten,
and the fact that it has elevated him to the top.
And that's really the problem. And the
only solution is for not radical people, but just clear thinking people to say absolutely not. And
here's why. And to stand firm in the face of their kryptonite. And their kryptonite is the word
racist. And as someone who's been called racist like 50,000 times, I have kind of a PhD in this
and here's what I've learned. I'll never forget the first time that somebody on some other channel,
CNN or one of the totally discredited propaganda outlets in my country was like, he's a racist and
wow, it really hurt my feelings and I thought, I can't believe they call me a racist. That's like
horrifying and my second thought was, am I a racist?
Because when you're accused of something,
I mean, it's just reflexive.
Your first thought is to sort of take stock
and ask yourself, you know, did I do the crime?
And I thought to myself, no, I'm actually not.
And then I just said, well, then why would I be?
I mean, if they said, you know,
Tucker Carlson gained 30 pounds this summer
from eating pizza, I'd be totally ashamed
because of course that's true. But every summer, by the way, my whole life, but
I'll admit it. But I'm not a racist. So I just decided, you know what? The only people who can
really be upset about being called racists are the racists. And the rest of us can sort of stand
strong and smile and say, I'm not a racist, I'm sorry.
I just don't like you, actually.
But that's the leash.
That's how they keep you silent.
And when they started calling people who questioned
climate change,
it just cracks me up. In a country shaped by glaciers,
has there been climate change before? I'm just wondering. Oh, do the glaciers melt because of
SUVs? No, I don't know. We'll check. Anyway, climate change. But when they started saying
that people who doubted climate change, it's hilarious We're racist. I was like, okay. Right. So, so, so my
two pieces of advice, and I'll stop with this and we'll get to our panel with smarter people than I,
is one, be strong inside. Know who you are. If you're not a racist, it shouldn't hurt to be called one.
It really shouldn't.
And two, I've been attacked
for calling Canadians humoralists or whatever.
And as I've said, I don't think that at all.
I do think you've lost an awful lot of good comedians
who fled your country to the South because I do think you've lost an awful lot of good comedians who fled your country to the south.
Because I do think it's hard to,
there's a culture of self-restraint
and of modesty here, clearly.
And I think it's hard for Canadians
to sort of mock someone else because it feels forbidden.
And I get that, and I appreciate that sentiment.
But now is the time for mockery. It is. It is.
You are led by buffoons in costume.
You really are.
And if Chrystia Freeland...
Chrystia Freeland!
Fascist midget.
And Justin Trudeau. Perky little Justin Trudeau, those are your leaders, okay?
And if you can't laugh in their faces, if your first response is, how do I get to a place where
you, who I wouldn't hire to clean my pool, is running my country. Get out of here, freak.
Go back to your costume party.
Laugh in their faces.
Nothing is more empowering to you and more disempowering to them than laughter.
Because the one thing they want is to be taken seriously.
These are broken people.
These are hollow people who are desperate for power
because there's nothing else inside.
There's nothing else inside.
A normal person doesn't lust for power.
He doesn't.
He can use power to affect good,
but power for its own sake is not interesting to him.
In fact, it's dangerous,
and wise people stay away from it.
And so the kind of people who do lust for power are freaks.
They're sideshow freaks.
And the last thing they want is for you to say that out loud
because they melt like a vampire at noon.
They just disappear.
And the second you laugh at them,
you realize how good it feels to tell the truth
and you are empowered by the spirit of truth
when you do that and you become stronger.
And so I look forward to your mockery
of the people who misrule you.
Thank you. you
