Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Sixty nine percent of Canadians sixty nine percent, uh oh,
- 0:07Speaker 1: sixty nine percent of Canadians have a favorable view of
- 0:10Speaker 1: the European Union compared to thirty four percent to view
- 0:14Speaker 1: the US favorably. That's because Canadians have been brainwashed and
- 0:19Speaker 1: their brains have been turned to mush. Being right next
- 0:23Speaker 1: to the United States, having this big, big, beautiful border
- 0:26Speaker 1: with the United States is just an unimaginable blessing to Canada.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Being right next door to the biggest economy in the world.
- 0:39Speaker 1: It's incredible good fortune for everybody who lives here. Obvious
- 0:44Speaker 1: slave how many countries would like that. Hey, guess what's
- 0:46Speaker 1: on either side. There's oceans, oceans. It's incredibly beneficial to
- 0:53Speaker 1: Canada to be right next door to this massive economy,
- 0:57Speaker 1: the biggest economy in the world. Right, a sane government
- 1:01Speaker 1: would look for ways to maximize the benefit from that.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Sane people would recognize that, right, hey, we're not right
- 1:09Speaker 1: next door to the European Union and guess what, they're
- 1:12Speaker 1: a basket case says here might explain why close to
- 1:16Speaker 1: half of Canadians say they would support joining the EU. Really,
- 1:21Speaker 1: we're right next door to the biggest economy in the world,
- 1:25Speaker 1: surprising Sheriff, Canadians support EU membership. New polling suggests Canadians
- 1:29Speaker 1: are rapidly warming up to the idea of joining the
- 1:31Speaker 1: European Union. From March eleventh, twenty twenty five, amidst the
- 1:36Speaker 1: newly found trade war with the United States, Canadians have
- 1:39Speaker 1: been looking for alternative solutions to our ongoing economic woes.
- 1:43Speaker 1: While there are plenty of ways we could reduce our
- 1:45Speaker 1: reliance on the Americans, some Canadians have started looking across
- 1:49Speaker 1: the Atlantic. A new question has emerged, should Canada seek
- 1:53Speaker 1: membership in the European Union. New polling from Ebicus data
- 1:56Speaker 1: suggests Canadians are more supportive of the idea than one
- 2:00Speaker 1: might think. So Team Canada. Right now, all these politicians
- 2:06Speaker 1: pretending that I don't know what they think, that Trump's
- 2:09Speaker 1: going to invade Canada or something, but talking about we're
- 2:12Speaker 1: never going to be the fifty first state, blah blah blah,
- 2:14Speaker 1: We'll never give up our sovereignty, We'll never give up
- 2:17Speaker 1: our sovereignty. Five seconds later, let's give up our sovereignty.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Let's join the EU. EU sovereignty is such a big
- 2:25Speaker 1: issue right now, Let's see how that would go with
- 2:28Speaker 1: the EU. Let's see I asked that in what ways
- 2:31Speaker 1: does the EU override the sovereignty of its member states tariffs, immigration,
- 2:36Speaker 1: et cetera. The European Union overrides the sovereignty of its
- 2:40Speaker 1: member states in several ways, as member states delegate certain
- 2:44Speaker 1: powers to EU institutions to achieve collective goals. Collective goals
- 2:49Speaker 1: like economic integration, political stability, and coordinated policy making. So
- 2:56Speaker 1: your political stability, that translates as at draconian draconian censorship
- 3:03Speaker 1: of dissent and just deciding that, well, we don't like
- 3:07Speaker 1: a party that a country's elected, so we're just not
- 3:10Speaker 1: going to let that happen. Let's see tariffs and trade.
- 3:13Speaker 1: How it overrides sovereignty. The EU operates as a customs union,
- 3:17Speaker 1: meaning member states surrender control, surrender control over their external
- 3:23Speaker 1: trade policies. Well, we won't even have to worry about
- 3:26Speaker 1: it anymore. Just joined the EU. I'm sure they'll do
- 3:29Speaker 1: well by us. The European Commission negotiates trade agreements and
- 3:34Speaker 1: sets common external tariffs for all twenty seven member states.
- 3:39Speaker 1: So do Canadians want sovereignty or not? Because it kind
- 3:43Speaker 1: of sounds like maybe they don't. Individual countries cannot impose
- 3:47Speaker 1: their own tariffs on imports from non EU countries or
- 3:50Speaker 1: negotiate bilateral trade deals independently. So is this what Canadians
- 3:55Speaker 1: want or do they know? Here's the thing, they have
- 3:58Speaker 1: no idea, right They just all just be able to
- 4:00Speaker 1: travel freely around Europe, that's what they're thinking. They don't
- 4:03Speaker 1: know about any of this. They don't know that this
- 4:05Speaker 1: would actually be giving up your sovereignty. That's why Brexit happened. Immigration. Immigration,
- 4:12Speaker 1: Now you may have heard, you may have heard that
- 4:13Speaker 1: quite a bit about immigration in the EU and how
- 4:16Speaker 1: Europeans hate it. They hate the immigration policies there, but
- 4:20Speaker 1: there doesn't seem to be anything they can do about
- 4:23Speaker 1: it because they're part of this EU thing and apparently
- 4:26Speaker 1: there's no democracy there anymore. And you better not talk
- 4:28Speaker 1: about it on social media because you're going to get
- 4:30Speaker 1: a knock on the door from the police. Literally that
- 4:33Speaker 1: will happen. How it override sovereignty. Immigration is a shared competence,
- 4:38Speaker 1: but the EU exerts significant influence, especially on external borders
- 4:44Speaker 1: and asylum policy. Example, Hungary's attempt to block asylum seekers
- 4:49Speaker 1: during the twenty fifteen migrant crisis clashed with EU rules,
- 4:54Speaker 1: leading to lego battles with the European Court of Justice.
- 4:57Speaker 1: The ECJ ruled in twenty twenty that Hungary's border policies
- 5:02Speaker 1: violated EU law. But Canada is never going to give
- 5:06Speaker 1: up at sovereignty except to the EU because a teleprompter
- 5:10Speaker 1: reader on the evening news told them to. Essentially, what
- 5:14Speaker 1: will happen on immigration is that the EU will just
- 5:16Speaker 1: say you're taking in five million people from Syria now
- 5:20Speaker 1: and do it, and if you don't, we're gonna make
- 5:23Speaker 1: it hard for you, and everybody's gonna call you far right,
- 5:25Speaker 1: neo Nazis or white supremacists whatever. Like. With Hungary legislation
- 5:30Speaker 1: and regulation, how it overrides sovereignty. The EU can pass laws, regulations,
- 5:34Speaker 1: and directives that are binding on member states, often superseding
- 5:39Speaker 1: national legislation. So you're going to have a bunch of
- 5:42Speaker 1: people that you've never voted for deciding how you live
- 5:46Speaker 1: in your country. Canada will never give up at sovereignty
- 5:50Speaker 1: unless we joined the EU, and then we're fine with that.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Then that's awesome. Anyway, That's all I'm gonna say about that.
