EZRA LEVANT | The CBC Lied Before—And Under Mark Carney, They’ll Do It Louder

Ezra Levant’s guest Sheila Gunreid exposes the CBC as Mark Carney’s "$150M taxpayer-funded disinformation arm", ignoring Canada’s 2002 Hamas terror designation, amplifying unverified Gaza hospital claims, and quietly correcting the Kamloops "250 graves" narrative without on-air accountability. Chris Dacey details Carney’s dismissive treatment of independent journalists while protests—including radical Hamas-aligned rallies—escalate in Ottawa, requiring heavy security even for Israeli Independence Day events. Viewers like Naida Treviza link CBC bias to Western separatism, while Lillian Kelly warns BC may follow Alberta’s path under Carney’s coalition. His rapid Trump alignment and boomer voters’ tribalism reveal a broken trust in liberal institutions, demanding Conservative oversight or defunding post-election. [Automatically generated summary]

Tonight, the CBC lied before.
And under Mark Carney, they're going to lie harder and with even more of your money than independent journalist Chris Dacey joins me to discuss his first interaction with a post-election Mark Carney.
I'm Sheila Gunread.
It is May 1st, 2025, and you're watching the Ezra Levant show.
Shame on you, you censorious fuck.
Stick to someone here, and I think Pierre's the guy.
Okay, but if you stick with the leader, do you stick with the leadership style?
Because I don't think it's helpful to be fighting with Doug Ford.
I don't think it's helpful to be fighting with Tim Houston.
You've been at war with the Parliamentary Press Gallery, you know, calling people liars because they get subsidies.
Not you.
I want to make that very clear.
But this has been the thing that, you know, because I work for the CBC and we get government money, we're going to lie for the government.
I mean, it just creates all of these fractions and tensions and makes people question, you know, the seriousness of things.
It's official.
The CBC just isn't biased.
It's fully weaponized.
And now that unelected banker-turned politician Mark Carney has clawed his way into power through the back door of a liberal minority, Canada State Broadcaster is going to lie harder, louder, and more aggressively than ever before.
They were Trudeau's spin machine.
Now, they're Carney's comms team.
Let's be honest, though, the CBC stopped being a journalistic institution a very long time ago.
Today, it's a taxpayer-funded disinformation factory.
And if you still had doubts, Carney just erased them all because Carney promised to give CBC a $150 million boost in funding, despite record low ratings, plummeting public trust, and viewership numbers so bad they'd be canceled if they weren't subsidized.
So why is Carney throwing money at a network nobody watches?
Well, it's simple.
He knows they're in the bag for him.
And they know their jobs depend on it.
If you ever wondered why Rosemary Barton acts like a protective wingman whenever somebody says something harsh but true about Mark Carney, it's because she's auditioning for survival.
They're all acting like their pensions depend on Carney staying in power because they do.
But first, let's go back a step.
The CBC is the only broadcaster in Canada that doesn't answer to independent oversight.
Private broadcasters like Global CTV, almost anyone else on terrestrial TV and radio have to follow the rules.
They're accountable to the Broadcast Standards Council.
If they air something false, they have to publicly correct it on air.
If they screw up, they answer to a panel of peers, not their own HR department.
But the CBC, oh no, they investigate themselves.
If they lie and you complain, your complaint gets sent to their ombud or ombudsman, a CBC employee hired by CBC management, paid for by your tax dollars.
It's a farce.
And this matters because they've been caught lying again and again and again with no real consequences.
Case in point, the war in Gaza.
After the October 7th massacre, where Hamas terrorists murdered Israeli civilians, raped women, and kidnapped children, the CBC told its journalists not to call Hamas terrorists, even though Hamas has been officially listed as a terrorist group by the Canadian government since about 2002.
And when Hamas falsely accused Israel of bombing Gaza's El Alhi hospital, CBC ran the story like it was gospel.
No verification, no sourcing, just Hamas propaganda laundered through your state broadcaster.
And even when it became clear that it was a misfired Palestinian rocket, CBC never issued an on-air correction.
B'nai Brith, Canada, called them out, saying the CBC actively spread terrorist propaganda.
That's not a one-of.
There's a pattern, because there's also the Kamloops lie.
Remember the story that set the country on fire?
250 unmarked graves at the Kamloops Residential School?
Now, if you get all your news from the CBC, you would not know that no bodies have ever been exhumed.
There's no forensic evidence.
But the CBC ran with it again and again.
The government canceled Canada Day.
Churches burned.
They were vandalized.
And anyone who asks the questions, well, they were called a denier, including our own Drea Humphrey.
Drea dared to ask for evidence.
And she dared to say, hold on, this lie sent the country aflame and stoked anti-Christian hate.
And shouldn't those, including the politicians who spread the lie, now be forced to apologize?
Hello, Mr. Sting.
Drea Humphrey with Rebel News.
Your party takes great pride in standing against hate such as white supremacy, Islamophobia, and all.
Sorry, I didn't get your outlet.
Drea Humphrey with Rebel News.
Okay.
Your party.
You know I'm going to go with this, though, right?
Can I speak?
Yeah, you can.
I'm just going to say, you know where I'm going to go with it, though.
Your party takes pride in standing against hate such as white supremacy, Islamophobia, and online hate speech.
Yet you stay silent about ongoing attacks against Christians, even after Conservative MP Jamil Javani's order paper question revealed that over 200 churches have been targeted by arson and vandalism since claims of remains being discovered at former residential schools swept the nation in 2021.
These claims have been disproven by bans that excavated and remain unproven by those that have not.
Will you condemn the rise in acts of hate against Christians today and explain what your party will do moving forward to keep Christians safe from hate in Canada?
Again, thank you, but I'm not going to respond to an organization that promotes misinformation and disinformation like Rebel News.
So no, I'm not going to respond to your question.
Please keep the questions and answers short.
We're just getting up to the time.
Perhaps you didn't hear me.
Over 200 Christian places of worship have been attacked in Canada since 2021.
Many served First Nations communities.
Many were historic.
And they diverted police and resources and put others at risk.
What do you say to Canadians who see your refusal to answer, especially from one of the few media outlets here that are not funded by the state, as proof that a vote for you is a vote for a dangerous radical party that gaslights the public into thinking it stands against hate when its silence is instead embolding Christophobia?
Your question is another example of why I don't respond to agencies like Rebel News that promote misinformation and disinformation.
And Rosemary Barton, Canada's taxpayer-funded mean girl?
Well, she went on her national TV program during the 2025 federal election debates and accused Drea of residential school denialism.
No proof, just a smear.
A racialized, to use their language, female journalists publicly defamed during a federal election by the national state broadcaster.
I think we have to sort of address the elephant in the room.
How are these people chosen to answer these questions?
And I don't know if either one of you have an answer for that, but I think there will be people at home saying, some of these seem like odd questions.
Some of them aren't getting answered.
How come we've heard so often from this one particular outlet?
Any idea what's going on?
There's three right-wing, very right-wing media, we can call them media, websites that are present in there.
They get in line to ask a question like anybody else.
Their accreditation has been approved by the Commission of Debates.
And so they get the right to stand in line and ask a question that they choose to ask.
In this case, you saw Mr. Singh, and this has been his position for some time, to refuse to answer questions.
Rebel News in particular, traffics and misinformation, facts, lack of facts, and as you heard in that question, which was woven with some truth and some things that weren't true.
Yes, there have been burnings of Christian Catholic churches.
Yes, there have been remains of Indigenous children found in various places around the country, which she misrepresented.
And when the truth came out, CBC didn't correct it on air.
They didn't apologize.
They quietly issued a correction on a page that nobody reads.
And that's a violation of their own policies, which state that televised errors must be corrected on television.
But the rules don't apply when you're the ruling party's favorite outlet.
And they do it again and again.
During the 2025 leaders' debate, CBC hosts David Cochrane and Barton again pressured the Debates Commission to ban Rebel News from attending, despite two court rulings saying that it was illegal to block them.
They also publicly said that our accreditation was revoked.
It wasn't.
They falsely claimed Ezra Levant disrupted their live broadcast.
He didn't.
They claimed Rebel News billboard truck rented out to a third party was operating illegally.
It wasn't.
There was some sort of an altercation inside there in the last little while involving Ezra Levant, who is the head of Rebel News and other journalists.
Michel Cormier has escorted Ezra Levant out.
His credentials, we believe, has been revoked.
Earlier in this program, you might have seen sort of some glitchy video playing because we had to go to tape because Mr. Levant and his people came over with cameras rolling and tried to interrupt this broadcast, you know, which is something journalists do to other journalists, I guess.
The duo spread misinformation over and over again about who is allowed at the debate and who is disruptive while acting like CBC itself should be the gatekeeper of Canadian democracy.
Meanwhile, as we do, Rebel News filmed everything.
You can watch the raw footage of the lies at, you guessed it, CBCLies.com.
And when you do watch, ask yourself this.
Why does the CBC lie even when they know the truth is on camera?
Well, it's because they assume you'll never see it because they believe they're untouchable.
And now, Mark Carney wants to give them more power.
Carney isn't just rewarding the CBC for their loyalty.
He's also laying the groundwork for a censorship regime.
Because besides promising CBC $150 million more, he also said this.
We announced a series of measures on crime.
And we announced a series of measures with respect to online harm and other factors.
And one of the observations we had, one of the issues we're dealing with, there's many serious issues that we're dealing with with respect to crimes of violence, conjugal violence, drugs, fentanyl, others.
But one of them is with respect to really just the sea of misogyny, anti-Semitism, hatred, conspiracy theories, this sort of pollution. that's online that washes over our virtual borders from the United States.
It's the sea of misogyny, anti-Semitism, hatred, and conspiracy theories.
This sort of pollution online that washes over our virtual borders from the United States.
That wasn't just moralizing.
That was a target list for censorship, if you're paying attention.
Carney doesn't mean dealing with the Hamas hate marches or the anti-Christian crimes or the misinformation and conspiracy theories of the CBC.
In fact, Carney also said he agrees with Hamas, remember?
Hamas, we all agree on Hamas on a two-state solution.
No, we don't agree with Hamas.
No, we're against Hamas.
We're all against Hamas.
We are.
Someone in favor of a two-state solution.
What Carney means is that what you say and believe about him is pollution.
And we know Carney hates pollution, like so-called carbon pollution that he hates so much.
He will legislate against.
He'll legislate against your polluting free speech.
That's not leadership.
That's authoritarian in a tight necktie.
He wants a media ecosystem where only his version of the truth is allowed.
And with the CBC in his corner, well, that's easy enough.
They're bought.
They're desperate.
They're acting like his re-election team, even now, after he's been elected.
But let's not forget, I mentioned off the top, CBC's viewership is in the toilet.
Most of their content is watched by fewer people than a Rebel News live stream.
And they know it.
If this were a private company, they'd be bankrupt by Christmas.
But Carney's CBC is too politically useful to fail.
So he'll prop them up with your money and let them punish dissent while they're at it.
So here's the bottom line.
The CBC lies.
The CBC smears.
The CBC fabricates.
And the CBC censors.
And now, under Carney, the CBC will become the nerve center of a national censorship regime.
They are not Canada's trusted news source.
They're not a public service.
They are a taxpayer-funded comms team for the ruling class.
Cbc's Future Uncertain 00:13:29
So what do we do?
Well, once the Conservatives get elected, they must cut their funding.
If the CBC wants to be activists, they can crowdfund like everyone else.
Two, they should put them under real oversight.
End this ombudsman scam.
Make these people answer to the Broadcast Standards Council like every other terrestrial network.
And here's what you can do.
You can support independent media, Rebel News, Western Standard, Juno, True North, even the smaller independent guys, the ones fighting for truth while CBC rewrites it.
Because the CBC lied before, and under Mark Carney, they've got the money to lie louder.
But they're not the only ones with cameras.
They're not the only ones with microphones.
And we, well, we've got the receipts.
Stay with us.
I've got an independent journalist with me up after the break who, despite CBC's attacks, continues to ask the big, tough questions.
Up next.
Mr. Carney, you ready?
Fear-based campaign focused on Trump.
Elbows up.
Did you practice that long?
I did, actually.
Why does Trump prefer you over Pierpolio?
Why does Crutzy hate us?
Are you doing that?
Do you plan?
Do you plan to do anything about the weekly hate marches here in Ottawa?
We have weekly hate marches here in Ottawa.
Assaults on independent journalists.
Should you maybe call back Parliament?
Parliament's been parogued a very long time.
Should Parliament come back and skip summer vacation, Mr. Carney?
Do you think mocking the independent media, the only people here questioning you, is a good way to start?
Can we do that?
Hey, looking forward to seeing you again soon.
Bye now.
I look forward to our next meeting, Mr. Carney.
So what you saw there is independent journalist Chris Dacey.
I think he's one of the hardest working independent journalists in this country, and he is not letting grass grow under his feet.
He's not retreating to his emotions now that the liberals have won.
He's out there working hard every single day.
And I thought, since my monologue was on how bad CBC is, I thought I would bring on an independent journalist, exactly Chris Dacey, to show what one man can do if he has a camera and a sense of hard work.
So Chris, thanks for coming on the show.
Tell me, how were you able to catch Mark Carney out on the street like that?
Yeah, I mean, I guess the same way I've always been doing this.
Like pay attention to what's going on around Ottawa.
And Mark Carney now has a larger than Trudeau security detail.
And it's pretty easy to pick out.
So like there's the three SUVs and then there's an entourage around that.
And, you know, I've been doing this a long time.
So like, I'll get it as soon as that vehicle is spotted, like I'll get a message, you know.
And if I'm in the area, I'm close, I just went down.
And there was a bit of media around, but I just waited around and kept an eye on things, hoping I would get a chance.
And when the RCMP started setting up, we had a quick chat, and then I knew for sure that I have an opportunity.
So, I mean, a lot of it's patience.
Hurry up and wait.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And working your connections, situational awareness, and just good old-fashioned hard work and ingenuity.
Now, you were able to put a question to Mark Carney, but instead of answering you, he mocked you, which I think is exactly how he feels about, I think, all media, to be honest with you, but independent media, I think he hates us the most.
Tell us about that.
Yeah, I would maybe even go further than it's not just media.
I think he thinks basically everyone is beneath him.
He has maybe a particular angle at media.
But, you know, I was, I mean, I wasn't really shocked that he would come back like that, but I was a little surprised.
Like, so it wasn't an answer, but he engaged, which is very different than my experience with Trudeau.
You know, it was different.
Perhaps that means that he's willing to spar a little bit.
I don't really know.
It's still kind of early.
And there's like a feeling out process for all of this, I guess.
I'm new to this, and I'm definitely new to interacting with Carney.
So I wasn't shocked by it.
And I mean, I'm used to being mocked, to be honest.
You know, the legacy media mock me openly.
Politicians mock me.
They slander me in the House of Commons.
So, you know, this is kind of old hat.
Yeah.
I mean, it was a little bit of the look inside yourself rosemary moment for you.
And, you know, when he's when he thinks CBC is too biased against him, he really, really, really doesn't like the media.
But he's not used to being held accountable for the things that he says and he does.
He thinks he's just, as you say, just sort of above it all.
He's a rich bankster who gets to do what he wants and be damned with hearing from the little guy like you.
Yeah.
And I mean, that's exactly what he's like with them.
And he comes back at people like, like, how dare you even ask me a question.
And I mean, people kind of come at me.
It's a pretty dynamic situation in these things.
I'm still getting used to it.
I'm still, you know, I'm not used to questioning the most powerful people in the country.
Like, that's an intense thing.
So, to be able to ask these questions where even bigger independent media, such as yourselves, you know, you barely have access.
The people that do have access certainly aren't going to ask the questions that at least a large proportion of Canadians would like answers to.
So it's a real unique opportunity.
And I think it's something that needs to be done.
I'm getting my legs under me and figuring out how to do that, but it's something that I'm going to continue trying to do to keep doing.
And with Mr. Carney or any other politicians that I can find around Ottawa.
In my experience, the politicians are far more scared of you than you should be of them, because you have the ability with one question to make or break them and their reputation on an issue.
And I know it's nerve-wracking.
I've been there where you're like, oh, heck, am I going to ask a question of the prime minister or potentially the next prime minister?
But they're more scared of you.
And just always remember that.
I wish all citizen journalists would remember that.
There's a reason why the politicians don't want to talk to us.
And it's because they're scared of us.
And we do important work on behalf of the people of this country.
Now, that's one of the reasons I wanted to have you on the show.
So Mark Carney is our new prime minister, just by the skin of his teeth.
And who knows how long that's going to last.
But he did say in the debate that in the liberal debate that he does agree with Hamas and members of his party, including who will now be sitting MPs, signed a pledge, a sort of anti-Israel pledge.
And part of your work is documenting the chaos caused by these pro-terror Hamas mobs on the streets of Ottawa.
I want you to tell me how what comes next?
Is it going to get worse?
Do you think Kearney will actually do anything?
I'm doubtful.
He's got this weird coalition of Hamas apologists and radical NDPers that voted for him.
What comes next for Ottawa, for Canada's streets?
We see this stuff in Toronto.
Is it going to get worse?
I mean, it's May Day today.
Yeah, yeah, maybe I got, yeah, we'll hit on that maybe after too.
I don't see how it possibly possibly de-escalates.
In my experience, as this stuff amps up, it only gets worse.
It doesn't like stabilize it and suddenly go away.
And in my experience, these things aren't slowing down.
Like the number is at least once a week of fairly major protests.
And perhaps sometimes the size is smaller, but I would say the radicalization or the amount of radical elements is growing.
So maybe some of that people that were coming out to see what it was, a lot of these people have been, I think a lot of people have been turned off, but there are quite a few radical elements.
I would say like Islamist elements, but there's also radical trans elements.
There's unions involved.
So there's a lot of very interesting bedfellows, I guess, so to speak.
And then you have this is a lot of these people, like in theory, would be the base that would have elected Kearney.
So he's walking, you know, he's going to have to talk out of, he seems to be anyway, he's talking out of both sides of his mouth.
I don't see how this gets any better unless it's directly addressed, unless we admit what's happening, talk about what's really happening, and then come up with a plan.
Yeah, I think the election was a pivot point for Canada.
Do we accept the carnage in our streets, the social decay, the crime, the violence, the drugs, the out-of-control immigration, the out-of-control cost of living, and this weekly anti-Semitism celebration that happens in cities all across the country?
Do we accept that?
And I guess for many parts of Eastern Canada, they do accept it just fine.
I want to talk to you about the election outcome.
You're in Ottawa.
I'm in Alberta.
It's causing already a unity crisis.
Just set aside your independent journalism covering the streets of Ottawa.
And I want to talk to Chris Dacey about this.
How do you feel about the potential for a constitutional crisis in this country if the West says we did our part, we voted as blue as we possibly could, and it doesn't matter.
What do you think about that?
Yeah, I mean, as, you know, as a Canadian, it saddens me that it has to come to this.
But I mean, I understand.
I can completely understand where you guys are coming from, honestly.
You've been getting the raw end of the stick for a very long time.
You've been doing what you can.
And, you know, I kind of feel like I have a little microcosm of that here.
Like, you know, I'm a conservative stuck surrounded by liberals.
I understand.
And I mean, something needs to change, right?
So things cannot continue, status quo.
Things are getting worse and worse.
And, you know, we need to think about how we're going to rebuild it and the future, right?
We're in a bad place right now.
If we're going to move forward, if anyone is, like, you got to think, you got to think about how.
So, I mean, I understand.
And it's unfortunate, but honestly, like there wasn't so much timing here.
I would honestly consider moving.
And I have thought about moving.
If I moved, it would be to Alberta.
I think you do just fine out here.
I know a lot of our staff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, you're in the trades too.
So you would do very well here.
A lot of our Rebel News staff evacuated Ontario for here and they're doing quite well for themselves.
We touched on May Day.
Tell me what happens in May Day in Ottawa.
I'm in rural Alberta.
We don't even know what May Day is.
May Day is just the first of May.
It's another day on the calendar.
What is it like there?
So to be honest, I don't actually know.
I was going to look it up before this and I got pretty busy today.
But May Day, I have seen in other years, there's been major protests in Ottawa.
It's a union day.
It's like a unionist protest, but I don't know why it gets so violent.
So I was going to say, in my experience, it was those more radical elements.
So you'll see people in black block at the ones I saw other years.
Ottawa police put out some statements earlier today to avoid the downtown area after, I believe it was 11 o'clock for protests throughout the day.
And then specifically at, I think 4 or 5 p.m. tonight, a Palestinian protest that's supposed to coincide with this.
So there's going to be an extra Palestinian protest today at Confederation Park.
And it's actually, it's interesting timing.
So this morning, it's also Israeli Independence Day today.
So in Ottawa, there's an annual tradition every year on Israeli Independence Day.
There's a flag raising ceremony.
And normally they're just quick, quiet things.
A flag goes up and that's the end of it.
Last year, there was quite a large counter protest, I would call it, and things got a little hairy.
This year, I was invited to it this morning.
The mayor Mark Sutcliffe was there.
The Israeli ambassador to Canada was there.
No other media except me.
And I mean, there was a massive, massive security contingent, Ottawa police, RCMP, the ambassador at his own security.
There was a few counter-protesters that showed up, but it was a nice thing.
People can look on my X.
I posted some stuff from it.
Chris Alone on the Streets 00:02:13
But that just goes to show you, and they spoke to how scared and dangerous it is to have these things.
You know, they thank the police for having to protect coming to protect them, and they did a wonderful job, the Ottawa Police Witness and everyone involved.
But the fact that that's necessary and to this degree is very telling.
You know, I didn't speak on camera with people.
They're kind of nervous, but people were telling me they can't take their kids downtown.
They can't go out and, you know, let alone someone wearing people.
Like, people will identify people that don't, you know, just by stereotypes alone.
And, you know, but it's not safe.
It's dangerous.
And I mean, I have some of that experience too.
It's not safe for me sometimes on the streets either.
Yeah, that's a serious indictment of what's going on in our nation's capital every single week: that Israeli diplomats can't be safe, but also just your regular old Jewish friend and neighbor can't feel safe in our nation's capital.
Chris, I've said this all the time, but I really admire the work that you do because you're a lot of times you're out there by yourself.
You've been threatened by these mobs.
You know, the police are not going to protect you, as we've seen time and time again.
I want to give people an opportunity to support you.
If there's a way to do that, please tell them and where they can find the important work that you do because you are self-funded and you do this alone.
So please give the viewers a chance.
Yeah, so the best place to find all my work is on X at Chris Dacy.
If you search Dacey Media, you'll probably find me.
I am starting to get, you know, I did this kind of ad hoc.
So I have bought DaceMedia.com and.ca and I just registered and things.
So there will be more coming.
But if people want to support me directly in the meantime, they can do so by e-transfer to daceymedia at gmail.com or Dacey Media Merch 2, I now have available exclusively through the Veterans for Freedom shop.
So if you go to veteransforfreedom.com and check out their shop, you can get some Dacey Media merch there too.
Well, Chris, thanks so much.
And thanks so much for the work that you do documenting the troubles of Carneast Canada, particularly in Ottawa.
We Are in Deep Trouble 00:05:28
You put yourself in harm's way.
And I mean, I think you do this out of a labor of love for your city and for your country.
And so we just thank you for that.
Yeah, thanks for having me.
Appreciate it.
Stay with us.
your letters to Ezra unceremoniously read by me up after the break.
As is Ezra's custom, he turns over the last portion of the show to you because without you, there's no rebel news.
So this is your viewer feedback.
You can send it to us in all the ways listed over my shoulder, but also you can leave a comment on the rebelnews.com website or as over my shoulder says on any of the platforms, where you might find us.
Now, on Ezra Levant's interview with Constitutional Lawyer Keith Wilson, speaking on Danielle Smith's immediate actions to make it easier for citizens of Alberta to organize a referendum on separation or on anything for that matter, Naida Treviza said Keith Wilson has spoken truthfully about the attitude from Eastern elites toward Alberta.
Guys, I don't know if you spend any time whatsoever on X, and I know I probably spend too much time on there, but the only people telling us that we cannot decide our own fate as Albertans, whether it is to stay or to go, are a bunch of Easterners.
And isn't that the problem that got us here in the first place?
A bunch of Easterners telling us what we can do with ourselves.
I think it is a decision for Albertans to make one way or another, but I think there is uniform attitude that something is wrong, severely broken, and there are systemic inequities within Confederation that under the current way Confederation works, Alberta just can't get around.
So something needs to change.
Now, what is that thing?
That's up to the people to decide.
Lillian Kelly writes: I live in BC and am originally from Ontario many, many years ago.
I cannot imagine Alberta leaving Canada, and it is definitely not what I want to see happen, although I can understand people in Alberta choosing to do this.
I'm going to stop right there.
Many of the people who were newborn separatists on election night feel the same way you do.
They don't want to see it happen, but they've tried it the other way time and time again.
You know, we've got a premier who fights back against the feds.
We had a prime minister from Alberta and nothing got better because those things are not permanent.
Let's go on.
With Carney as prime minister, I think that we as a country are in deep trouble.
I am so disappointed that the liberals won this election.
You might be disappointed, but I'm not surprised.
We cannot outvote the bad voting habits of Easterners as Westerners.
In fact, I feel sick about it.
I think it is Carney and the Liberals that we need to get rid of, not Alberta.
What will people in BC do?
We are in deep trouble in BC as well.
We basically have a fascist government here.
And what are we going to do about this?
We are in deep trouble in this province.
I love this province.
Carney and Eevee are birds of a feather.
We need the BC, NDP, and the federal liberals to both go.
I suspect there's probably a movement afoot, at least in the interior of BC, to consider what Albertans are organizing in this province to do.
And that is put the question to people, or at least give people the opportunity to respond to a question.
Because the interior of BC, you guys are just like us, Albertans.
You just keep voting deep, deep blue.
And it doesn't matter.
You're controlled by Ottawa and you're controlled by Vancouver, people who don't share your values.
Nicola Timmerman commented: it didn't take tough Carney five seconds to suck up to Trump.
Trump said after their phone call that Carney was so nice, a real gentleman.
Liberal voters got so suckered.
Yeah, they did.
Or did they?
I mean, I guess they did.
If they were voting for Kearney because they thought Kearney would be tougher on Trump than Polyev, did they get suckered or did they just not want to believe what was right before them?
Because Trump said, yeah, I think the liberal would be a lot easier to deal with.
Well, of course he would be.
Trump said that.
So, I mean, these are just tribalist liberals who I think no matter what you told them would have voted liberal anyway.
Breaking the Social Contract 00:02:30
I mean, these are people who are okay with 10 years of corruption, social decay, crime, rich elites lining their own pockets while the rest of us do without over taxation, out of control, immigration.
These are people who are fine with those things completely.
And what I find so shocking about the voting habits of boomers in the East, and don't come at me, boomers, the demographics play this out.
If you didn't vote for Carney, I'm not talking about you if you're a boomer.
But for all of human history, all of civilization, the generation before has always willing, has always been willing to work harder and do with less.
So the generation in front of them could have a better go of it.
And that's how we moved society forward from living in a cave to celebrities vacationing for five minutes in outer space.
That's how we got here.
That's how we got from literally living in a cave to a supercomputer in your pocket and getting a new one every single year.
It's because the older people knew it was their responsibility to leave something better for the younger ones.
And when those younger ones got older, they did the same.
It's the social contract.
And these boomers are breaking the social contract, the social contract that has worked for all of human history.
I can't get my head around it.
As a mother, as a mother with at least one of my kids old enough and stable enough to have a child of his own to give me a grandchild, I can't imagine choosing myself over them.
Like that's just not your role as a parent, but that is what these boomers have done.
And I don't get it.
And people like that, could they have, would anything have convinced them not to vote Carney?
I'm not sure.
I am not sure.
Well, everybody, that's the show for today.
Thank you so much for bearing with me as I filled in for the boss, Ezra Levant.
I think he's hosting the show tomorrow, most likely.
