Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: This is one of the greatest speeches I've ever seen
- 0:06Speaker 1: any politician deliver. This is from Jason James. Let's just
- 0:10Speaker 1: watch it. It's I watched it. It's actually quite moving,
- 0:14Speaker 1: and I think I'm just going to play it in
- 0:15Speaker 1: its entirety. I think it's I think it's worth it.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Let's take a look.
- 0:19Speaker 2: When I travel across this country, I consistently meet two
- 0:22Speaker 2: types of people. One those who are a little better
- 0:25Speaker 2: off and tell me that, and I'll be very blunt
- 0:28Speaker 2: about this, is that if I don't win, they will
- 0:31Speaker 2: leave the country. And they are very numerous. But you know,
- 0:35Speaker 2: I don't worry about them as much. You know who
- 0:37Speaker 2: I worry about the ones who can't leave, the ones
- 0:42Speaker 2: who don't know. And I can just be used very
- 0:44Speaker 2: blunt language. Who tell me, I don't know what the
- 0:46Speaker 2: hell I'm going to do. I have no idea how
- 0:51Speaker 2: I'm going to pay my way. I'm met a waitress
- 0:55Speaker 2: at a restaurant not long ago, and she came up
- 0:59Speaker 2: to me and she grabbed you by the hand and
- 1:01Speaker 2: said you have to win. And I said, oh, thank you,
- 1:04Speaker 2: I appreciate your support. She said, no, no, it wasn't
- 1:08Speaker 2: a compliment. You have to win. And then she told
- 1:12Speaker 2: me your story. She told me that she was working
- 1:17Speaker 2: one full time job and two part time jobs just
- 1:20Speaker 2: to pay her bills. It's a single woman in her
- 1:22Speaker 2: late fifties, and she was tired of working all the time,
- 1:27Speaker 2: so she cut everything out of her budget, every creature, comfort,
- 1:32Speaker 2: everything she enjoyed about her life. She cut it out
- 1:35Speaker 2: so that she could drop one of those part time jobs.
- 1:38Speaker 2: And then one morning she woke up and she walked
- 1:42Speaker 2: outside and her car was gone. And she called her
- 1:47Speaker 2: insurance and they said they weren't going to cover the
- 1:49Speaker 2: replacement value. So she had to take that job back
- 1:53Speaker 2: because she simply cannot live her life without a car.
- 1:57Speaker 2: And you can bet your bottom dollar the guy who
- 1:58Speaker 2: stole the car, he was probably on bail. This was
- 2:01Speaker 2: not his first job. Her taxes have gone up, her
- 2:06Speaker 2: heating bill has gone up, her wages have not gone up.
- 2:10Speaker 2: She's scared to go out in the streets in places
- 2:13Speaker 2: where they didn't even lock the door not long ago.
- 2:16Speaker 2: These are the people we're fighting for. These silly games
- 2:18Speaker 2: over here. They're very entertaining. The soap opera that everyone
- 2:22Speaker 2: sees with today. That's all fine, but there are real
- 2:26Speaker 2: people whose lives are on the line here and we
- 2:28Speaker 2: have a duty to work for them. And quite frankly,
- 2:42Speaker 2: this woman doesn't see me or any of us as
- 2:44Speaker 2: any kind of savior. They see us all as a
- 2:47Speaker 2: last hope. In fact, she doesn't want to be saved.
- 2:50Speaker 2: She just wants her life back. She was taking care
- 2:53Speaker 2: of herself just fine. For a tax, her heat her
- 2:56Speaker 2: grocery bill went through the roof, and her car went missing.
- 3:00Speaker 2: She was doing just fine. She was doing everything right.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Met another guy at the Lebrat Brewery a few days ago,
- 3:07Speaker 2: and you can watch the video of me talking with him.
- 3:10Speaker 2: He walked up to me, he said, I have three
- 3:12Speaker 2: jobs and I can't make it. We're renting. We have
- 3:15Speaker 2: no hope that we've given up on ever owning home.
- 3:17Speaker 2: We're renting. We can barely make it. And he said
- 3:20Speaker 2: to me, I feel ashamed when I talk to my
- 3:23Speaker 2: kids because they asked me why I'm never around and
- 3:27Speaker 2: why we can never have a house, And I feel
- 3:30Speaker 2: like a failure. But he didn't fail. He has been failed.
- 3:37Speaker 2: He has been robbed of the promise of Canada. It
- 3:42Speaker 2: was a very simple promise that if you worked hard,
- 3:45Speaker 2: you got a good life. Now, it wasn't fancy or extravagant,
- 3:49Speaker 2: but you got a house with a yard where you
- 3:53Speaker 2: could have kids playing safely, and you could have a
- 3:57Speaker 2: nice dog that you could afford to feed along with
- 4:00Speaker 2: the kids, and your kids could play safely in the streets.
- 4:04Speaker 2: That was the promise. Now, politicians break promises all the time,
- 4:08Speaker 2: but you know what was bad about this promise. This
- 4:12Speaker 2: promise didn't belong to this Prime minister. It wasn't his
- 4:16Speaker 2: promise to break. It belonged to all of us. And
- 4:21Speaker 2: our purpose is to bring home that promise for that
- 4:25Speaker 2: young man, that young father, and that older female worker,
- 4:29Speaker 2: so that they can once again take back control of
- 4:32Speaker 2: their lives. Live in a safe country where their hard
- 4:36Speaker 2: work earns them a good wage, where the rent and
- 4:39Speaker 2: their food is affordable, and where when they go to
- 4:43Speaker 2: bed at night, they know that they will be safe
- 4:45Speaker 2: throughout their sleep and that they will have their car
- 4:48Speaker 2: in their driveway in the morning. A country where people
- 4:51Speaker 2: are proud again to fly the flag, where they know
- 4:56Speaker 2: the government is a servant and not a master, where
- 4:59Speaker 2: they understand that every day the commons this place works
- 5:04Speaker 2: for the common people, not for the ego of one man.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Desperate to cling on to his job. We must remember
- 5:14Speaker 2: that we are servants in this place. We have a
- 5:17Speaker 2: job to do on behalf of the people who sent
- 5:20Speaker 2: us here. Our personal dramas are not important. The dramas
- 5:24Speaker 2: that should seize all of our concern and imagination are
- 5:28Speaker 2: the daily dramas of the working women and men that
- 5:33Speaker 2: build this country. We are in it for them. We're
- 5:36Speaker 2: going to give them back control of their lives in
- 5:38Speaker 2: the freest country on earth, Canada. Let's bring it home.
- 5:44Speaker 1: So no teleprompteries, not looking down at notes, and let's
- 5:48Speaker 1: see is the greatest actor in the world that felt
- 5:50Speaker 1: sincere to me, that moved me. That speech, that's the
- 5:54Speaker 1: speech that Trudeau could not deliver. Trudeau grew up apart
- 5:58Speaker 1: from regular Canadians and the concerns and challenges of regular people.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Peer Paulief did not. He didn't grow up dirt poor.
- 6:08Speaker 1: He grew up you know, middle class, lower middle class.
- 6:11Speaker 1: But he group around normal Canadians, right with normal Canadian
- 6:16Speaker 1: concerns and challenges. Unlike Trudeau, who seems to be completely
- 6:22Speaker 1: detached from the concerns and certainly any concern of the
- 6:27Speaker 1: well being of ordinary Canadians. He Trudeau seems to just
- 6:31Speaker 1: live in some elitist fantasy world where you just people
- 6:34Speaker 1: just the people eat platitudes. You know, people can live
- 6:38Speaker 1: on platitudes. You know, he'll always have lots of money, right,
- 6:41Speaker 1: He'll always be doing very well. In fact, he'll probably
- 6:45Speaker 1: after he's been kicked out with a disastrous, catastrophic loss,
- 6:49Speaker 1: he'll probably go live, you know, very well in Switzerland,
- 6:53Speaker 1: or you know, will go work for the UN something
- 6:56Speaker 1: like that. He's incapable of giving a speech like that.
- 7:00Speaker 1: But I love that was worth saying in its entirety.
- 7:03Speaker 1: You know, I think that was powerful. That was moving,
- 7:05Speaker 1: and it's it really just gets the tone of where
- 7:09Speaker 1: Canada is right now and what Canada needs. Canada needs that.
- 7:15Speaker 1: That's what it needs. It doesn't need platitudes. It doesn't
- 7:19Speaker 1: need to be shamed because it's not woke enough. It
- 7:22Speaker 1: needs that real concerns. He's talking about real people with
- 7:26Speaker 1: real challenges there. He's not talking about how you know
- 7:31Speaker 1: it how it wasn't supposed to be like this that
- 7:33Speaker 1: Trump got elected instead of a woman, because woman that
- 7:37Speaker 1: is so far from the concerns of regular Canadians right now.
- 7:42Speaker 1: It's not even in the same goddamn universe. I mean
- 7:45Speaker 1: that speech there, I had to think anybody who was
- 7:48Speaker 1: on the fence, who just you know, they just find
- 7:50Speaker 1: it so distasteful to vote for a conservative. You know,
- 7:53Speaker 1: there's always been NDP or liberal or whatever. It's just
- 7:57Speaker 1: been a fashionable thing. It's just been aesthetics to feel.
- 8:00Speaker 1: There's people that have been on the fence that will
- 8:02Speaker 1: watch that, that will look at that and say, yes,
- 8:04Speaker 1: that's what we need. That's reality. He's speaking about reality there. Anyway,
- 8:10Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to say about that. Please like,
- 8:12Speaker 1: share it and subscribe. Subscribing really helps me out. I
- 8:15Speaker 1: thank you for that. I will see you next time.
