Ezra Levant critiques Mark Carney’s UN speech, calling it "word salad" while exposing Canada’s economic decline—$100B in lost pipeline investments and stalled projects like Ontario’s "ring of fire." He mocks Carney’s AI claims, noting U.S. dominance in research, and slams his selective "rules-based order" rhetoric, citing CFIA’s 9 p.m. enforcement confusion and the mass killing of 400 healthy ostriches despite herd immunity. Trump’s UN tech failures and Carney’s absurd Quebec independence analogy further highlight a global shift toward unstable, borderless governance, undermining Canada’s credibility as a stable, prosperous nation. [Automatically generated summary]
Mark Carney was on the world stage at the Council of Foreign Relations, and he gave a speech, and I watched it.
And I got to tell you, they say this guy is smart, really smart, they say.
And I've said that too.
I said he's Trudeau 2.0, but harder working and smarter.
But I don't even know if he's smarter.
I mean, how could he have run Brookfield Asset Management?
I don't know.
I'll take you through his speech.
And I just think it's meaningless.
Now, maybe that's high art.
Maybe it's a kind of performance art.
Or maybe saying nothing while pretending to say something.
Maybe that's the highest achievement of a politician.
I don't know.
But I'm still waiting for the smart part to kick in.
I'll take you through it.
But first, let me invite you to become a subscriber to Rebel News Plus.

Tonight, they say Mark Carney is smart.
Is that true?
It's September 23rd, and this is the Edge of LeMan Show.
Shame on you, you censorious bug.
Well, there's some big meetings at the United Nations.
Donald Trump gave some remarks today.
It was an incredible thing.
Some workers at the United Nations building joked about turning off elevators and escalators right when Donald Trump got on them to make some political statement about underfunding.
And wouldn't you know it, that actually happened?
They turned off the escalator when Donald Trump was on it.
I suppose that's not the same as turning off an elevator, which could kill a guy.
But, you know, the idea of causing physical annoyance at least and harm at most to conservatives by people who work in public institutions, that is part of the same leftist mentality as Antifa and in extreme circumstances, assassination.
I thought that was really gross.
I'm not done going through Trump's speech.
Again, they turned off his teleprompter too.
And he started riffing.
And Donald Trump doesn't need a teleprompter.
He gives hour-long speeches all the time on the campaign trail.
He just went into campaign mode.
Some grown-up turned back on the teleprompter.
But seriously, if you have an institution that turns off elevators and escalators and turns off teleprompters, it's actually a bit of a security threat when you're dealing with the most assassination-prone person in the world, namely a U.S. president.
Super gross.
I'll talk a little bit more tomorrow about Donald Trump if time warrants.
But I want to talk about something that our prime minister said, the Council for Foreign Relations, which is sort of a globalist left-wing think tank, but it has a good reputation and a lot of, they have a lot of good speakers.
So Carney went there.
And I want to play for you some clips from it.
And I'll stop it once in a while.
I'm not going to play the entire thing, and I'll give you some of my thoughts.
So I want to show you Mark Carney on the world stage.
Take a look.
You know, what I propose to do in 10 minutes is just to say a few words about how a middle power like Canada can deal with the situation where the rules-based order is eroding, great power rivalries intensifying, and authoritarian models are hardening.
I mean, that's a simplified version of what's going on.
A rules-based global system, that's not really how it works because there's no global enforcer of rules.
It is, as it has always been, the strong defeat the weak, which is why Israel has to be strong in the face of terrorists who would wipe it out and kill it.
We don't like war, but war is what happens when politics fails.
The rules don't mean much.
As Stalin said about the Pope, how many divisions does he have?
But rules-based international order is sort of a buzzword that people like Mark Carney and before him, others like Christian Freeland have used.
But there were no rules that went along with his weird endorsement of a terrorist state to come out of the ashes of Gaza.
So I think he only talks about the rules when they favor him.
And when he talks about authoritarianism, he's the prime minister of Canada who, when the trucker convoy was operating in Ottawa, he wasn't prime minister then, obviously, but he took time out from his overseas work to write an op-ed in the Globe and Mail saying that Trudeau wasn't going hard enough and far enough.
And it is reported that Mark Carney, because he knows banking and he was the former head of the Bank of Canada, that he was the one who proposed the idea of seizing and freezing bank accounts, which was the worst part of the lockdown.
So it's a bit much for someone who wanted Trudeau to go harder against a peaceful protest to complain against authoritarianism.
At least it looks that way to me.
Here, let's listen to some more from Carney.
I'm going to give you a punchline, which is we think we can thrive, and I choose that word advisedly, thrive in this new non-system or the system that's evolving for three reasons.
And the first is we have what the world wants.
Take on the energy side, we are an energy superpower.
That is going to become increasingly evident.
85% of our energy is clean.
We're one of the world's largest LNG exporters, one of the largest reserves of oil and gas.
We measure additions to our grid in 10 gigawatt chunks, to put it in perspective.
And you will see that with time.
Hey, do you think that Canada is thriving?
Do you know anyone in any industry who would use that word?
Do you think we're an energy superpower?
I think we could be, but I think after 10 years of the Liberals blocking every pipeline and driving out $100 billion worth of investment, I'm not sure if that's quite true.
Mark Carney has been prime minister for more than six months now, and he now says he's going to have an approvals process for fast-tracking mega-projects.
He's listed a few of them, but not a single pipeline is on his list.
Why would he tell the world that he's going to move forward on things like that when he doesn't?
He says we're one of the most important countries in terms of mineral wealth, but a lot of those companies no longer operate in Canada.
Mining companies based in Canada often operate in other parts of the world because they can't get permits in Canada.
Here, take a look.
We are top five in 10 of the world's most important critical minerals.
40% of the world's listed mining companies are in Canada, to give a perspective there.
Yeah, I think Canada used to be big into mining, but that so-called ring of fire in Ontario, that's been dormant for decades.
I mean, again, it's regulatory processes that have killed it.
Now, Mark Carney, like all politicians, loves to use the words AI.
He doesn't really know what it means.
He just knows it makes him sound fresh.
Take a listen.
We are a leading developer of AI, and our research universities are some of the biggest producers in volume of AI computing and quantum talent in the world.
Unfortunately, most of them go to the United States.
I understand you're changing your visa policy here.
Yeah, does anyone really believe that Canada is an AI superpower?
I mean, do you believe that?
I know there are some AI companies like chip makers like NVIDIA, and then there's a race between ChatGPT and Grok AI and XAI.
And I mean, I barely understand what these things are, although I do use Grok AI, which is associated with Twitter.
But none of them are Canadian.
Does anyone actually think that just because Mark Carney says we're an AI superpower that we are?
I just think that's sort of laughable.
Here, listen a little more.
Now, the second reason why I'd say we have good prospects, not assured prospects, but good prospects, is we have values to which much of the world, not all of the world, much of the world still aspires.
We're a pluralistic society that works.
Our cities are amongst the most diverse in the world.
Good Prospects Through Values00:05:41
Public square is loud, diverse, and free.
Are our cities working?
I mean, Mark Carney goes in a limo with an entourage and the roads are swept free in front of him, but does he not see the homeless encampments along the side of the road?
He has security around the clock, so he doesn't see the crime wave, but does he not know about it?
Is he briefed on the world or just what his flaks want him to hear?
There is loudness in the public square.
He's right on that part.
But it's also violent and bigoted and full of foreign extremists, including 700 agents of Iran.
So yeah, we have a loud public square, and it's hounding Jews and sometimes even shooting up Jewish schools.
And it's not free.
He's making it less free.
He supports online censorship.
Why does Mark Carney say certain things in public when he's got an American audience that just aren't true?
You know, most of his speech, and I went through it unfortunately, it's just endless bureaucracy speak, a sort of fog of meaningless jargon.
In Orwell's 1984, that was called duck speaking.
Quack, And to call someone a duck speaker could be an insult or it could be praise.
Oh, he's an excellent duck speaker.
Mark Carney just quack, Listen to this carefully and you tell me, if you doubt me, you tell me what he actually means by what you're about to hear.
By the nature of our federation, we have to practice collaboration and partnership.
And it's a country that is still committed to sustainability.
And the third reason why I'm going to argue we can thrive in this time is we recognize what's going on.
This is not a transition.
This is a rupture.
This is a sharp change in a short period of time, driven by a variety of factors.
We have a determination to rise up and meet this.
I'm going to give you one last set of threes, and then we'll have our conversation.
Our response to this is to build strength at home, to build resilience by diversifying abroad, and pursue a variable geography to defend our values and pursue our interests.
Tell me, no, you got to say, what does that mean?
He uses words like rupture and values and pursuer.
Did you learn anything there?
Like that sort of like mesmerizing hypnotic word salad.
I don't know, but I thought this guy was super smart.
I think it's completely meaningless.
It pretends to be deep.
I don't know how this BS would have worked when he was the chair of Brookfield Asset Management.
Was he different there or were they all like this?
I don't know.
Watch some more.
So just on strength at home, I can understand if you were distracted by events down here and you haven't followed exactly everything we've been doing in the last four months.
But while you were otherwise occupied, we've cut tax incomes and capital gains.
We have removed all barriers to interprovincial trade.
Is that true that they've removed all federal barriers to interprovincial trade?
Is that true?
Is that true for oil?
Oil pipelines are a national project and they're under federal jurisdiction.
There is no right for provinces or Indigenous groups to veto them or to block them.
Yet that remains the case in Canada.
Why would Mark Carney say that he has removed all barriers to interprovincial trade, barriers that come from the federal government?
Why would he say that if he is still blocking oil and gas pipelines?
Why would he say that?
We have passed landmark legislation to fast track literally hundreds of billions of dollars of projects in energy, in AI, in critical minerals, in new trade corridors.
So when is that all going to happen?
I mean, he's been prime minister for half a year now.
Donald Trump has a furious pace.
You could name 100 things he's done.
We are doubling our defense spending by 2030.
We're doubling our defense by 2030.
No, I just don't think that's true.
In fact, I checked.
Now, it is true that Mark Carney is renaming a whole bunch of other spending as defense spending.
So he can claim to boost funding, but there's no actual new money or very little new money.
It's like when he called every single bureaucrat working at the border agency, called them a border guard.
So you could be a paper pusher in some office in Ottawa, and he suddenly called that a border guard to appease Trump on fentanyl and terrorism.
I checked.
Last year, Canada spent $41 billion on defense.
And according to Mark Carney's plans, five years from now, that number will rise to 57 billion.
So it is going up and slightly faster than inflation.
So if he actually keeps his word, it's growing.
But how's that doubling?
Why would he say that if it's not true?
Listen a little bit more and count how many times you hear the word AI.
Our core capabilities with respect to defense, AI, quantum, cyber, critical minerals provide unique opportunities for dual use and economic benefit, and we intend to fully exploit those.
Like I say, he's calling everything defense spending now, isn't he?
Think Outside the Deadline Rush00:02:00
Let me cut to the end.
Look, I'll just sum up.
I would ask you to, when you think about Canada, think about Canada, actually, that's my request.
Think about as a strong, sovereign, independent nation.
Think about Canada as that.
But there is a big opportunity in this shifting in Canada.
We understand what's going on.
We understand the scale of the response that's required.
We have the resources the world needs.
We have the talent to turn that potential into growth.
We're a reliable partner.
We're connected more than anyone else through trading relationships with any other part of the world.
And we're no longer relying on just the strength of our values, but the value of our strength with your help.
So thank you very much, and I look forward to the discussion.
Did you understand any of that?
Here's what I took away from it: we're no longer reliant on just the strength of our values, but the value of our strength.
I think he might have got that from some influencer on TikTok.
Like, I think this girl might have given him the idea.
Don't love your job, job your love.
Don't love your job.
Job your love.
Don't love your job, job your love.
I love that.
Get ready.
Get ready.
Don't think outside the box.
Let the box think outside.
Don't rush to meet that deadline.
Let the deadline rush to meet you.
Don't take it personally.
Personally, take it.
Hope we try.
Try Kush.
Yeah, I just don't know what he means, and I'm really trying hard to find out what he means.
I think we have an airhead as a prime minister, I'm afraid.
Prospect Receding00:03:06
I don't know.
Happy to be proven wrong.
Oh, and on Palestine, that came up.
Did you know that Mark Carney proposed to the Council of Foreign Relations, he didn't say it in Parliament yet, that Canadian soldiers go over there to Gaza, into Gaza, to disarm Hamas.
Oh, what?
The CBC didn't put that on the news.
Listen, he's talking about disarmament.
His first word in this clip.
Take a look.
The disarmament and elimination of Hamas as a force, certainly as a political force, military force first and political force, is one of the conditions for a sustained cessation of hostilities and peace.
And when you say who is going to do that, there are many proposals, as I suspect you're aware, from a variety of Arab states, combination of Arab states and European states, to which Canada would be party if they were to come to pass, for multinational forces to be deployed in Palestine to enforce a peace and to drive that process,
that process forward.
Now, is that smarter or dumber than Mark Carney saying that Gaza will be a Zionist Arab country?
Canada join some European countries in recognizing Palestinian statehood.
What do you expect that to accomplish?
Well, I think the first thing to say is this is consistent with our policy since 1947.
Since 1980, every Canadian government, whether of whatever political stripe, has supported a two-state solution, as many other countries have.
What we have been seeing, first because of the acts of these Highness Acts of Hamas, but then other in terms of response, is that that prospect is receding before our eyes.
So the idea of waiting until all the conditions are in place for a free and viable Palestinian state committed to peace and security side by side with the state of Israel, as what I've called a Zionist Palestinian state, which is what we want.
That's what you want.
That's what you think you're getting.
You think that by declaring Palestine a state, even though that's not, it hasn't happened, nothing's changed on the ground, you think it's going to be a Zionist Palestinian country, that they're going to be pro-Israel and they're going to believe that the Jews belong there.
You think that's going to happen?
You call it necessary.
You say that's Canadian policy, and yet it doesn't exist and it never will.
And yet you still command, I don't know, implore Israel to accept a Palestinian state and recognize it without those things.
Hamas's charter calls for the extinction of Jews.
Ostrich Farm Controversy00:11:55
The current head of the Palestinian Authority got his PhD in Holocaust denial.
Where are these Zionists?
You know, they say Mark Carney is smart.
They say he's very smart.
I'm still waiting for the smart part.
Just incredible.
Hey, I want to show you two things because I don't know if you're following this ostrich situation in BC.
In the BC interior, there's an ostrich farm.
It's not for leather and it's not for food.
It's for medical research.
And there's hundreds of these giant birds there, and they have been ordered to be killed en masse because almost a year ago, one of them had avian flu.
They all got better.
They all have herd immunity.
And the farmer says, look, I'm happy to test every bird here to prove they're not sick.
But the Canada Food Inspection Agency has commanded a mass killing of the birds.
There's no science behind it.
And I think one of the reasons why people are revved up about it is not just the idea of slaughtering hundreds of animals who did nothing wrong.
Not that animals do things wrong.
They don't have consciences.
But where's our conscience?
Why are we just killing hundreds of animals?
Because some bureaucrat says so.
It really is an echo of COVID times when we were told to do stupid things by people in white lab coats and just to obey.
Anyway, there's a real showdown going on there.
Audreya Humphrey is here, as you know.
And Sheila Gunreed went there with reinforcements driving all the way from Fort Saskatchewan, BC into the heart of BC, Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, into the heart of British Columbia.
It was an 11-hour ride here.
Let me show you some of the action that happened there today.
Yeah, 252 days have been entirely healthy.
Their eggs are used in medical research for COVID-19 and, of course, for avian flu.
If they are killed, if they are killed, then that research to update on what's happening.
So you can see the police are all standing here and they want to speak with the farmers, but we're not allowed to go over there.
So my understanding was Jeff was going to try to get them to come over this way so we could all be present.
And so I'm going to walk you guys over here because I think they're going to drive this way.
But look, look, they've been here all night.
And you guys should know that the warrant, by the way, that was issued allowed us to get a little bit of sleep.
The warrant says that nothing can be done by the CFIA.
By the way, it's the CFIA's warrant, not the RCMP's.
And it says that after 9 p.m. and before 6 a.m., they're not allowed to, you know, do any of their duty.
So everybody was allowed to, you know, not sleep with one eye open for a little bit there.
So that was really nice.
So here, what's happening is they're saying, no, if you want to talk to the farmers, do it where everybody can see.
So they're walking over this way.
It's not going to get any better over here with the load.
Be warned.
Why are you arguing?
There's an injured ostrich over here because of this operation.
The RCMP, the RCMP was flying their drones far too low and it caused complete hysteria with the birds.
I have never seen them run around the way they were running.
They can run very fast.
They were terrified because they're thinking there's prey hovering around their heads.
And so one of them, one of the hens, ran right full speed.
These guys can go 50 to 70 miles per hour into a fence, injured herself, is unable to walk.
There's two veterinarians here.
I interviewed one for a report, you know, a recap of day one that our producer is working on.
I'll see if I can find the other one.
But there's two veterinarians here that have been calling different animal health organizations and also calling the CFIA and say there's nothing humane about this.
You guys have an injured bird here.
No vet is coming in here to help.
The RCMP did say, okay, fine, we'll stop flying the drones.
And I did interview an officer about that, about them making the call.
But the point is, they don't even know what the heck they're doing here.
And maybe you should start by not coming to kill 400 healthy birds in the first place.
What's going on, Paul?
Officer Paul?
What about the letter from the CFIA that said they could feed them when they were requested?
Aren't you guys scared of catching avian flu?
Or is that the cockpit?
Thank you.
Just get your stuff.
Be proud of yourself.
Be proud of your assistant.
You know, why don't you not put your parents?
All right, Sheila, what does it feel like to see the farmers' tears for the first time in person?
As I said, I don't care for ostriches, but I do know what it's like to be a farmer whose livelihood is tied up in the land and the livestock.
I don't care We stand up Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
Here's the table.
I think Drea showed this yesterday during the live stream, the list of supporters.
People who have spoken out in favor of keeping the ostriches alive, President Trump.
And there we are.
There's Viva It's not that anybody can see that So this is supposed to be footage if you guys can see it.
And the hazmat, that is bugging me so much with the hazmats guys.
It's the medical theater of COVID all over again.
There were CFIA officers here yesterday.
No masks, no nothing.
They went right past the yellow caution tape.
Yeah.
So the birds didn't really give them a hard time, eh?
Very dangerous.
I think they actually dropped something on the ground before that so they could see that they could eat it.
Hopefully not poison.
No, I wouldn't.
What's it going to do?
Put them to sleep or something?
They seem pretty frisky.
Well, there you have it, guys.
All to get the farmers away from their herd.
So over here, just about three minutes down the road from the farm, sort of hidden amongst many trees, we can see a bunch of ideal lease trucks with many hay bills, which is consistent with what rebel news sources told me would be the case, that CFIA had used tax dollars to go ahead and buy these hay bills just as we reported.
I believe these trucks are based out of Dawson area, and you can see police are also guarding here.
So I have obviously not had time to reach out to the company as I would normally do.
But you guys are seeing exactly what we're seeing here right now.
I'm going to let you listen to some of the supporters out here trying to, I guess, convince the RCMP to back down while I assume they're getting their other supporters and other people online to maybe call this company and try to do a last-minute backout.
There's already been at least three companies who have backed out.
I believe there's a fourth.
I have been meaning to investigate that all day and haven't had a chance that have backed out of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's call plans for the 400 healthy ostriches.
Let's listen in.
Did you guys get leave?
This is really amazing to see that you have your future and their future in your hands.
Like you have that power and it takes one.
There's one of a hundred cops who just says no.
And if it happens to be you, I think you're going to find your fellow officers deciding that this is criminal to kill or be complicit in the killing of these animals.
And I think it's really imperative that if in fact if this one of the hundred is you, you'll be celebrated for the rest of your life by the world.
And we are so thankful for your being here.
Please do what you think you need to do and that is not put your head on the pillow tonight to see these birds kill.
I think this is important information for all of us.
And I just talked to Karen, who's the owner of this farm.
I've been here for many, many months.
I just talked to the owner of the farm.
I know you are here to keep peace and uphold the law.
What you're upholding the law is that the court order has said that these birds and the appeal have been denied.
But as of right now today, that appeal is in place and it's in place to be heard.
So that is coming from the owner of the farm that the appeal is in place as of today.
So talk to whoever it is you are because the appeal is in place.
Are you the commanding officer, sir?
Absolutely not.
What is your name and badge number?
My badge number 50521.
Thank you, sir.
Okay.
I so appreciate it.
I'm just saying that there's an appeal that has been officially in place.
And you guys, I guess, better coagulate over that and because you're here to uphold the law.
Dealey's called her hey back.
Yeah, we've got that.
Nice.
We called her hey back.
It's not over yet.
The farmers are fresh.
Hey, welcome back.
That's very interesting.
We're going to do our best to continue to cover that.
It's sort of strange.
I would not have thought that save the ostriches would have been a compelling call to arms.
But it's not even just about the ostriches.
It is about them.
But it's about an administrative state that is so unresponsive and unaccountable and so lacking in common sense that it proposes to kill hundreds of big birds simply because some bureaucrat says so.
Contrary to the science, contrary to property rights.
And what's so incredible to me is the Canada Food Inspection Agency has the power to summon and commandeer dozens of our CMP who, I suppose, have nothing better to do.
Sovereignty Debates00:04:33
Is that a fact?
Just incredible.
Maybe the ostriches need to be wearing kefias or something and talk about a free Palestine and maybe the cops will leave them alone.
Anyways, in a somewhat related matter, not really related, we have a rebel reporter very far away from the interior of BC, Avi Yamini, our Australian correspondent, he actually went to Israel and when he heard about Canada voting to recognize Palestine, he walked up and down Tel Aviv, the beach, and he asked people, should Israel recognize an independent Quebec?
I mean, fair is fair, right?
Are not the Quebecois a people?
Do they not have the right to self-determination?
Are they not a distinct culture and language and history?
Should Israel recognize a state of Quebec and, like Canada, should it give tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars to make that independence a reality?
And if you were to keep the analogy going, actually give money to the terrorist FLQ.
Well, luckily, Israelis have more common sense than Mark Carney.
Here's Avi Yamini asking that question in Israel.
Since now all these governments are going around declaring states and recognizing states inside of state, do you think Israel should return the favor and recognize, for example, Quebec, which is a French province in Canada, who some won independence?
Should Israel just recognize Quebec as an independent state?
We should be as Israelis.
We should be beyond that and be with compassion to the world.
And, you know, everybody will eventually get the truth.
And we don't have to be like, how do you say it?
So to give it back, you know, like to be, to do, we do on purpose because they wrong.
We know we are right.
We know our truth.
And we are good people living in a crazy Middle East.
And we are trying our best.
And eventually we'll be good.
Oh, I really don't know anything about that.
Why not?
If we're recognizing people as independent states, why not Quebec?
Why not the Aboriginal in Australia for their own sovereignty?
Why not?
I don't know anything about Quebec, but I don't know anything about Israel.
What does it matter?
So I support Quebec independence, okay?
We cannot act like other people act.
If they are wrong or they get abusive about something, you don't want to be the same because you want just to look about yourself and resolve your own problem.
You don't want to get involved in other problems.
So what we should focus on is our problem.
No, no.
They should just be one, one Canada.
Yeah, they don't need to have the French side and the English side.
It's not necessary.
I don't think Israel has the luxury to play those kind of games.
I don't think they even try to play those kind of games.
I think what they're going to do is really focus on the international, on the internal domestic decisions to take over Judea-Samaria.
i don't think it will change anything it's a really risky game and we don't have you know we don't have much power you know to influence other other countries So we can say that, but it doesn't change anything.
It doesn't, you know, it will get more fuel in the fire, you know.
So it's not smart.
I think it's kind of tacky because it's not, these are legitimate things.
Like in real life, you have to have real borders, you have to have real government.
You cannot just make up borders and make up statehood.
That just leads to chaos.
If they can handle a state, if there are certain borders that can be defined, okay, if they have a government, a stable government, if all that can be done in a peaceful manner, they can actually have a state.
But Israel cannot be part of the equation.
It depends on Canada and Quebec.
I don't know, you can go to WebEx, Kors, Andalus, Barcelona, and everybody.
It's like took some parts of the world.
And if you take it like this, like the whole Canada, it belongs to the native.
And Australia belongs to the Aborigines.
And there are Aborigines that want sovereignty.
It would be the same as Israel declaring sovereignty for Aboriginals in Australia.
