Chapter 1: Who is Charlie Angus and what is his message about Trump?

0.149 - 11.562 Charlie Angus

If Donald Trump did anything, he woke us up. Sucks to be you, Donald, once Canada wakes up. Sucks to be you. Yeah.

0

12.463 - 31.11 Ben Meiselas

That is Canadian legend Charlie Angus, who served as a member of Parliament. He was speaking there in Cumberland, British Columbia, gave an incredible speech there as part of his resistance tour. More on that in a bit. I want to talk, though, about generally how Canada is striking back.

0

31.19 - 53.198 Ben Meiselas

They are tip of the spear in the fight against the authoritarian Trump regime, and they've really inspired the entire world. in the international resistance against the Trump regime. So elbows up, shout out to the Maple Midas out there. And also, thanks for the shout outs we've been getting in that resistance tour. We greatly appreciate it.

0

53.218 - 75.168 Ben Meiselas

Let's talk about how Canada has been leading the world in the international resistance against the Trump regime and cornering Donald like the little cornered rat that he is. No offense to cornered rats who behave far better than the way Trump is behaving. A few things we should chat about. And then I want to talk a little bit more about Angus's speech.

0

75.208 - 95.958 Ben Meiselas

I mean, the first is Canada really showed the way with the boycott of all things American, the boycott of American products, the boycott of American tourism. And there are, you know, the towns that rely on Canadian tourism. They're really getting hit. But overall, The American tourism industry is getting crushed. Vegas is getting crushed.

96.118 - 123.666 Ben Meiselas

I've seen various reports that tourism from Canada to the United States is down anywhere from 40% to about 85% depending on the area and which study you review. I think it's towards the higher end of that, more like 85% is my view, but definitely more than 50%. But what we're seeing right now is the number of Europeans traveling to the U.S. also cratering. They are following the lead of Canada.

124.026 - 142.987 Ben Meiselas

Something I want to point out as well is that earlier in March, Canada began selling some of the United States Treasury bonds that they were holding. Prime Minister Carney is a banker. probably the top economist in the world.

143.467 - 167.152 Ben Meiselas

He previously led the Bank of Canada, got Canada through the Great Recession with the soft landing in the mid-2000s, and then also helped as he led the Bank of England as the governor of the Bank of England after Brexit and really helped the United Kingdom then. And so Carney understands the way the treasury markets work. He understands how dependent it

167.412 - 193.643 Ben Meiselas

the United States is on its bonds being viewed as a safe haven for money throughout the world. Right now, as of this recording, United States Treasury yields are going through the roof, showing significant instability. In other words, our bond markets are imploding as others appear to be following the lead of what Canada did in early March. Now,

Chapter 2: How is Canada leading the resistance against Donald Trump?

260.019 - 261.06 Ben Meiselas

Just here's Prime Minister Keir.

0

261.6 - 290.508 Mark Carney

uh carney saying that play this clip i was speaking earlier today with the uk prime minister prime minister starmer he gave me a call he wanted to speak because he has come to the same conclusion that we came to a few months ago yeah finally yeah well it's okay better late than never better late than ever but that the world has changed

0

291.98 - 300.764 Mark Carney

and that our old relationship with the United States is over, is over.

0

300.824 - 321.82 Ben Meiselas

Just to share some other stories with you here, like this one from Global News, the Maple Leaf belongs, U.S. tourist locations desperate for Canadians to return. I mean, it's talking about how, you know, here in Palm Springs in California, They're heavily dependent on Canadian tourism, and they've seen like a total drop.

0

322.601 - 346.211 Ben Meiselas

Whatcom County, Washington, basically saying, you know, nobody, no Canadians are showing up at all. It's like a ghost town right now. You also have Prime Minister Carney announcing something called a strong pass. Again, a further kind of fueling Canadian unity. And it goes on to talk about how with Trump threatening our economy and sovereignty, it

346.491 - 367.338 Ben Meiselas

Canadians are uniting to find new ways to discover and celebrate our beautiful country. So many Canadians are cutting back vacations to the United States and instead making memories here at home, showing our Canadian pride. Today, Mark Carney's Liberal Party announced a new Canada Strong Pass. so kids and young families can better discover and celebrate Canada over the summer.

367.738 - 384.888 Ben Meiselas

This builds on our announcement to connect Canadians with nature by making access to national parks and historic sites free for everyone this summer. The Canada Strong Pass will provide children and youth under the age of 18 with free access to Canada's incredible national galleries and museums.

385.408 - 409.13 Ben Meiselas

and free seats on the rail system when they travel with their parents and they're gonna work with provinces to extend this as well. It's not uncommon if you are traveling in Canada to see something like this, like this is from the Toronto Public Library. It goes on to say, buy local, support Canadian small businesses, victory loan, every dollar spent in Canada.

409.571 - 427.256 Ben Meiselas

By the way, take a look at what Elon Musk's brother, Kimball Musk, is saying about the sale of U.S. treasuries, of U.S. bonds. Foreigners are selling U.S. treasuries. The trade war must end and soon. The yen, the euro, and the Canadian dollar growing in value interest rates. for our debt is going higher. This is not the goal.
