Yeah, well, you will need to.
But coming back to this central theme of our conversation, which I think you've articulated, as I say, very powerfully, how do you wrestle control back from the people who've established this gigantic bureaucracy, who have all the corporate structures that benefit them?
How do you actually get to the point where that is no longer the case and your country, our country, is no longer about serving the interests of a very small group of people at the top?
I don't know how much you followed this in other countries.
And I wonder if it is an issue in Canada or not.
But the point you make about political activation is obviously true.
But one of the things that's happened both in Europe, in Britain and in America is political activation of a very frustrated population, understandably, has spilled over in many instances into anger and resentment and a much more destructive perspective.
You see, you know,
social media you know i always talk about how the the kind of the caliber of the influence it tells you a lot about the time you're in so you kind of go from jordan peterson within like 10 years you go down to andrew tate to nick fuentes right uh and in the uk you see that the the polarization is creating very angry divisive movements
which are understandable in some ways because they're reacting to things that are very unpleasant that you've been describing do you have that problem in canada and do you know if you do what do you know what to do about it
what other people should do about it the problem being uh polarization no it's not polarization because if you uh i guess the problem being that the anger that's created by the policies you're describing then becomes a vehicle for people who are not offering the message of hope and positivity that you are but are from a destructive message a message of hatred against other people etc
Yeah, and I thought your apple-eating video was a perfect illustration of people trying to drag you into the negative.
That was a great moment in internet history.
Pierre, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us.
We really appreciate it.
Thank you.
We're going to ask you some questions from our supporters.
Sure.
Many Canadians have written in with their questions.
Before we do, though, the last question we ask all our guests is what's the one thing we're not talking about that we should be as a society, as a culture?
