Transcript of Canada Just Went There…

Canada just went there, dropping the hammer even more. The Trump regime threatens more tariffs, and Prime Minister Carney and the United Premiers of Canada said, we don't care, we're in a trade war, we're gonna win. Elbows up, gloves down, over the boards.

Let's go.

Let's do it. Let me show you what Premier Wab Kinew of Manitoba had to say. Yep, he went there. Here, play this clip.

Release the Epstein files. Donald Trump is Jeffrey Epstein's Epstein's best friend. The reason why we're at war in Iran and everyone's paying higher gas prices is because of the Epstein files.

Told you he went there. More from Premier Wab Kinew of Manitoba. Here's what he had to say. Play this clip.

When it comes to Trump himself, I think part of what gives him his power is people pay attention when he does all these different erratic moves. So I think we're at the stage where, yeah, just kind of don't feed the beast and just starve him of attention a little bit. But there is a substantive trade dispute that needs to get addressed. And I think right now we just need to recognize that America is going to be there long after Donald Trump leaves office. So let's figure out a way to establish concrete relationships with reasonable actors who will presumably take the helm once he's done. And let's put the pieces in place. To try and get our economy prepared to weather, whether it's the next few months or whether it's the next 2 years plus.

Then you had the very whiny loser behavior of Jameson Greer, the US Trade Representative. You all know a Jameson Greer in your life, right? Whiny, pathetic loser behavior over here. And he's like, I think this trade war's not even a big deal. I think Canada is unhinged for taking this so seriously. It's not even a big situation. Do you see how they're panicking over there in the Trump regime? Listen to this whiny, grotesque, vile thing. Jameson Greer, right? Jameson Greer. Here, play this clip.

I mean, Prime Minister Carney used the term war. It's not a word we use, right? We don't, we don't talk about it that way. For us, it's business, it's economics. And by the way, the tariffs we put in place, whenever whatever it was, 10 days ago, 7 days ago, it only covers 5% of imports from Canada. It's like a rounding error. And so to kind of have it whipped up into this giant thing where we're talking about war and economic attacks and all these things, it's, it's a little unhinged.

Yeah.

And Jameson Greer sat with the Financial Times and he says it's absolutely unhinged for Canada to call the dispute with the US a trade war. This isn't a trade war. It's the Canadians that came out and said this is a war. We're just putting additional fees on them? Why are they taking this so seriously? And then he says, the fact that we are issuing further tariffs against Canada, he goes, it's a natural consequence of Canada's retaliation. They should do nothing. They should just sit back and take it. This is what he says. In a news release issued late Tuesday, Greer called the measures a natural consequence of Canada's trade tactics. Canada chose to embark on senseless retaliation against the United States, so thus we We must make them pay. More on Greer in a moment. But let me show you Tim Hodgson, the Minister of Energy. Here's what he had to say. Play this clip. We are in a trade war, a trade war that we did not ask for, but that we must win. Yeah, you're damn right it's a trade war. Not only is it a trade war, I think saying trade war is putting it lightly.

My view, Donald Trump has declared an actual war on Canada. When you use 51st state language, when you start uh, promoting separatist groups and secession, when you start talking about invading the country as Trump and his regime have, that's war language. That goes beyond trade war. That's what Charlie Henges says. That's what he talks about on Midas Canada. Take a listen to what the finance minister had to say right here of Canada. He goes, you know what, I— there's a lot of issues, but this is a golden opportunity in front of us. The world is changing. America is changing. Canada is getting stronger. America is getting more isolated in this new multilateral world. Canada has a bigger and bigger role as the US gets weaker. And he's right. Here, play this clip.

My key message is that I see a golden opportunity in front of us. The world is changing. America is changing. The world energy architecture is changing. And in that new world, obviously, in the words of the International Energy Agency, Canada can be at the center. Why? Because we provide stability, predictability, and trust.

Listen to what former Conservative leader Erin O'Toole had to say here as well. Play this clip. The sort of very insulting language and memes, you know, and the offensive things that are being said about Canada and our leaders, our sovereignty, and you name it. I mean, it's really high school, you know, stuff, if not elementary school stuff, you know.

And I just wonder, You know, it aches me to my core, Todd. You know, when I was the Minister of Veterans Affairs in the Harper government, I went and spoke in Congress about Canadians fighting and dying together in World War II and the Devil's Brigade. They were honored by the Americans. And now we have the Secretary of War poking fun at our cadet program and really trolling the Canadian military. I agreed completely with what Prime Minister Carney said. What I think Canadians have to do is to say we are going to continue to approach this with good faith, with professionalism. We're not going to engage in these sort of antics. We have to bite our tongue at times. But I think if we stand together and we drive for a fair bargain, I think we will get there. But let's not resort to the high school name-calling, as you said. I think that's a good point.

More from the finance minister talking about, we know that we're going to be the masters of our own destiny.

Play this clip.

You saw me when I announced the countermeasures, and I know the question you asked, who started that? Listen, we didn't start that. We respond. We don't want to escalate, but we know how to respond, and we know how to protect, and we know what matters, and we know when to stand up. And we know that we're going to be master of our own destiny. And we know that no one— we will allow no one to infringe on our economic sovereignty. This was Canada when we were founded, and that's Canada today.

I told you I would get back to Jameson Greer. Here he was the other day on state regime media Fox. And you see what— like why you can't speak with these Trump regime officials. It was Warren Buffett who said you can never do a good deal with bad people. And the Trump regime— Warren Buffett didn't say this, I'm saying— are the worst scumbag people. They cover up child sex trafficking rings. They cover up the Epstein files. They're disgusting. So here you got Jameson Greer on Fox saying, oh, Canada now wants to have all of these free trade agreements with India and Europe. They're doubling down on globalization, and we want to make sure the North is— North America is protected. That's why we won't do a deal with Canada unless we get to approve of the deals that Canada does. This was the whole point. One of the big things that the Trump regime tried to inject last minute in their discussions with Canada is that the Trump regime wanted a veto over Canada's free trade deals with other countries. So of course Prime Minister Carney, who by the way now has approval ratings at 70%, says, no, we're not going to give you veto rights.

We're a sovereign country. What the hell are you talking about? I mean, because here's the thing you got to realize about the Trump regime. They're predators, right? I mean, they're led by a sexual abuser, someone who's been found liable for sexual assault in a court, someone who brags On audiotape that he sexually assaults women because he's rich. And he says, when you're rich, you sexually assault women, you get away with it. Then he says, that's locker room talk. He said he used his beauty pageants to go in and inspect the girls naked. He's on audio saying these things. He's a sexual predator. He's an actual predator. So his whole view about everything is, I'm going to dominate you. I'm going to— I'm going to do to Venezuela. That's what I'm going to do to you.

He's a sicko.

Listen to what Jameson Greer says. He says it out loud. Canada Canada wants to have free trade agreements. Uh-uh, we need to approve it. Hello, CUSMA, Canada-US-Mexico Agreement. That was the agreement that you had with Canada and Mexico, you idiot. Here, play this clip.

Canada's approach is different. Canada is doubling down on globalization. Canada wants to have a bunch of free trade agreements with Europe, you know, with India, with all these other places, and they can do that, right? They're their own country. And if that's what they want to do, that's fine. But we want to make sure that North America is protected. We want to make sure that if something's coming in from Canada and it's getting a great deal, that it's truly Canadian. So when they go to China and they say, listen, we're going to let in Chinese autos and we're going to invite Chinese auto investment into Canada, that's inconsistent with US trade policy. And again, if Canada wants to do that, that's their right, but it doesn't mean that we have to go along with it.

By the way, you're the trade representative. Literally what you're supposed to do is do trade agreements nationwide, not do— you're not the anti-trade representative, but It is interesting, right? As you go through each Trump cabinet official, they do the thing to destroy their cabinet when you think about it, right? I mean, Hegseth as Defense Secretary, he turns it into a war and then loses all of the wars, right? The Health Secretary, RFK Jr., hates health. The guy loves spreading diseases and there's diseases spreading everywhere. Education Secretary hates education. I mean, the Energy Secretary doesn't understand the way energy works. I could go through each person in the Trump regime. They're each more horrible than the next. It's ridiculous. It's awful. Gotta always do— show you what Charlie Angus had to say. Can't do a video without Angus. Here's what he has to say. Let's play it.

Well, Ben, I think the thing that's really maybe, uh, the good element here is that, again, things that took years, uh, and were very stuck on detail, that's all getting blown out of the water. So yeah, we've negotiated with the Europeans. I mean, it is— it's a nightmare in terms of regulatory issues that they focus on, but they We are a major global trading bloc economy. It's super important for us to be there. I think what the Europeans are realizing with the United States no longer trustworthy, they need allies too. So we are sort of blowing past, throwing the paperwork out the window and saying, okay, shake a hand. How do we sit down? How do we negotiate? How do we start trading critical minerals? How do you guys start giving us submarine technology? How do we work together in the Arctic? This is happening at a very accelerated rate. And it's, it's going to make Canada— it's going to change our position in the world. It already has. But again, who is the United States looking to? Like, they've come out and they've destroyed 80 years of relationships in Europe, supporting extremist parties, supporting, what, Javier in Argentina, supporting the North Korean government, and continuing to kiss the boots of Vladimir Putin at every possible opportunity.

I mean, How is that going to make America stronger? Is this Donald Trump's just nihilistic death wish of destroying the United States as a world power? And he's doing a damn good job. My question is, is why is, why is this being allowed to happen? Where are the voices speaking up? Where is the interventions in the United States to stop this destruction that's going on? Because again, we're watching the empire crumble on our border. We see the level of threat and menace coming from Donald Trump towards us, their next-door neighbors, and we're thinking, we got You gotta be ready for whatever happens, and right now Canadians are more than ready for whatever is going to come.

And then here's RNC Chair Joe Gruters. Here's the deranged comments that he made yesterday. Let's play this clip of Joe Gruters so you can hear it for yourself.

I hear you on the war on prices. The president is in the middle of this trade dispute, trade battle, trade war, whatever you want to call it, with Canada. Republicans are going to need Susan Collins in Maine. You know this, Joe, if you want to keep the Senate. And here's what she's saying about these new Canadian tariffs.

There's no one who has been more vocal than I have against the Canadian tariffs. I voted against them on the Senate floor.

President says they're good. She says no one has been more vocal and against them than me. Should she continue to be vocal and against them if it helps her win in Maine?

Listen, D.C. elitists have been selling the American worker down the river for 5 decades. This president's gone to bat for the American worker since day one. And what people have to know, and hopefully what we'll be able to explain to them at this convention, is that these trade deals— Canada has has been, has been doing one over on us.

So should Susan Collins— should Susan Collins tone down what she's saying then?

Listen, I think Susan Collins is well aware of what she's saying. I think she knows her district. But at the end of the day, this is for the greater good for American workers. This— we're not asking for any type of advantage. We're just telling Canada, be fair. What you charge is what we're going to charge. We're not going to let you bend us over for You know, over and over again for the next 50 years. The American worker has to be protected. We're going to go to bat for him. This president gets it, and he's all about making sure that everybody has that path to the American dream. I love Susan Collins, but she's wrong on this one.

I mean, some real sickos right there. Well, Canada, we stand in solidarity with you here at the Midas Touch Network, and I hope you do know that there are millions of Americans, there are more of us than there are of MAGA who actually stand in solidarity with you against our own government. We don't support the Trump regime. We support Canada over the Trump regime. We know this is a regime of sexual predators and deviants and vile pieces of trash. Keep standing up to this disgusting Trump regime. We'll do our part to fight here from within, but we don't like this. We, we don't support this. And we're gonna speak out loudly for you, you know, fighting. We want to fight with you against this Trump regime, these evil people, these scumbags. Thanks for watching. We appreciate you.
