This is insane. Blaming the fentanyl crisis in BC on colonialism. No, the fentanyl originally came from China. Now, it's being made in BC by Chinese triads and Mexican cartels. Is that the colonialism she's talking about? No, these folks don't want real solutions.

Almost 2 years ago Dr. Bonnie Henry went on CBC and blamed colonialism for the overdose death crisis in British Columbia. She assumed no responsibility for her morally bankrupt policies, such as her taxpayer funded "safe supply" program. Now we know the David Eby BC NDP used her "safe supply" program to funnel taxpayer funded pills, to cartels, by the millions. All this in the last 2 years. Not a single government official involved, has been charged with a crime.

This crisis is different, reflecting long-standing societal issues like colonialism, poverty, social disconnection, and racism. These issues are worsened by our weak mental health and substance use support system. When we declared the public health emergency in 2016, the goal was to recognize that the people affected were our community and family across the province, not just those in the Downtown East Side. We continue to provide regular updates.

Speaker 0: It is a very different type of crisis, and it is a reflection of a lot of things in our society that have been going on for a long time. So it's rooted in colonialism. It's rooted in poverty. It's rooted in, social disconnection racism and other societal things that need to change, and it's exacerbated by the fact that we don't have a very strong coordinated mental health and substance use support system. And when we declared the public health emergency, my predecessor, doctor Perry Kendall Yeah. In 2016, and and I was part of that, and we did have regular updates. We continue to have regular updates. One of the biggest reasons for declaring an emergency across the province was to build that recognition that that this was people. These were our community, our family, people across the province. It wasn't just the Downtown East Side.

Danielle Smith says Justin Trudeau has torched Canada’s relationship with Washington and put us in this position. https://t.co/jTttUYE2xU

Video Transcript AI Summary
The current situation is entirely due to Justin Trudeau's actions, particularly his recent comments about Kamala Harris. His approach has strained relations with the new U.S. administration during crucial trade negotiations. If there are failures in leadership and damaged relationships, they are solely his responsibility. In the meantime, efforts will focus on repairing and building relationships that should have been established over the past four years. Maintaining good relations with both Democrats and Republicans is essential for effective diplomacy, and it's important to avoid showing favoritism toward any political party in the U.S.

Speaker 0: Let's be super clear about why we find ourselves in the situation that we're in today. It lands 100% at the feet of Justin Trudeau, who even just a few weeks ago, gave a speech where he thought it was an affront to women that Kamala Harris didn't win. We're in a trade negotiation with a brand new administration and we have a Prime Minister who keeps on poking his finger in the eye of the current administration and has damaged that relationship. So if there's a failure, it lands at his feet, which is why I'm counting down the days to when he's gone and we can have a reset. It's 47 days to go, and I hope he doesn't continue torching the relationship in the meantime. All I can do is try to repair and build relationships that should have been repaired and built over the last 4 years. That is what we do by having our office in Washington. We have good relationships with people on both sides of the aisle because that is what diplomacy is. You have to be able to work with both Democrats and Republicans and you have to refrain from expressing a preference for who you would like in the White House. And so, if there's a failure of leadership, and if there's a damage to the relationship, it's a 100% of the feet of Justin Trudeau.

Glad to hear the Canadian Taxpayers Federation is gearing up to fight against CRA deciding to collect the capital gains tax hike despite it never having passed Parliament. This goes against the Canadian principle of no taxation without representation. https://t.co/a9cjp2O70G

Video Transcript AI Summary
No taxation without representation is a fundamental principle in Canada, outlined in Section 53 of the Constitution Act 1867. Only elected representatives in the House of Commons can vote on tax increases, not unelected officials from the CRA. Currently, the CRA is attempting to enforce a capital gains tax hike that has not been legislated. The Canadian Tax Credits Federation is preparing a constitutional challenge against this action. This tax increase could lead to the loss of over 400,000 jobs and remove $1 billion from the Canadian economy. The Federation is committed to opposing this undemocratic tax hike.

Speaker 0: No taxation without representation. This is not just a slogan. This is a constitutional principle in Canada enshrined in Section 53 of the Constitution Act 1867, which provides that only elected representatives in our House of Commons can vote for tax increases. It can't be done through unelected bureaucrats of the CRA who are now trying to enforce a capital gains tax hike that was never voted on as law. Here at the Canadian Tax Credits Federation, we're fighting back. We're gearing up for a constitutional challenge to stop the CRA and the unelected tax collectors. This tax cut is gonna cost Canada over 400,000 jobs, and it's gonna take 1,000,000,000 out of the Canadian economy. Follow along over the coming days weeks as here at the Canadian Tax Reform Federation, we're saying no to enforcing an undemocratic tax hike.

DeSantis is bang on here, totally different treatment based on parties and the same happens here in Canada. Can you imagine if Harper had behaved as Trudeau did the last few months? https://t.co/O2OQFse6UI

Video Transcript AI Summary
Criticism of political narratives surrounding disasters is common, especially in the media. In Florida, there's an expectation that any incident will be politicized. For instance, during the Surfside tower collapse, there were immediate attempts to blame the governor without facts. The notion that declaring a state of emergency is necessary for response is misleading. If a Republican were in charge during a disaster, the media scrutiny would be intense, yet there's a lack of accountability for Democratic leaders. For example, the mayor of Los Angeles faced little criticism for not being present during wildfires. There should be a balanced approach to holding all leaders accountable, regardless of their political affiliation.
Full Transcript
Speaker 0: President-elect or a president to be criticized appropriate for people in your industry to try to create division and to try to create narratives anytime these things happen. Now you're not as interested in doing that because Newsom is a d. Republican, you guys would go try that. You would have him nailed to the wall for what they're doing over there. And I know we've dealt with it. We just assume in Florida anytime something happens, it's going to be politicized by the media. So you guys sitting in judgment of Donald Trump, I mean, excuse me, I think your track record of politicizing these things is is very, very bad. Okay. Last question. Should resign in that the wildfires are all his fault. So do you agree with those comments? We I've had I remember when we had the Surfside tower collapse, I had people from the Washington Post trying to blame me for it, immediately without having any facts or anything. Oh, he didn't declare a state of emergency. First of all, state of emergency doesn't mean you can't respond. It's all that. Excuse me? Biden didn't. That's why I think that's what she said. Well, but what I'm telling you is you guys are trying to make an issue of it when I have watched from this seat. In fact, when I got elected governor, I was meeting with some of the other Republican governors. And what they would say is, hey, if you have a natural disaster, just know media's coming at you, they're gonna do it. It's not the same. That mayor of LA, if that were a Republican mayor, mayor, I could only imagine what that would do. I mean, you know the fires are at high risk and you try to go to Africa or wherever she was to go on some type of voyage. You should have been there preparing and doing that, and yet I don't see, a lot of heat being directed in that thing. And so, you know, I just I'd like to see some balance on how this is, this is done. You could criticize the president-elect, but I think you also have to hold these other people accountable, and I have not seen that.

This is how every elected official should be dealing with the protesters taking over campuses. Reagan shows the way. https://t.co/7ZWMJK8ANx

The speaker discusses the need to stop protests at the university that undermine law and order. They emphasize the importance of ending these actions immediately, regardless of the means necessary.

Speaker 0: Negotiate many times. Negotiate? What is to negotiate? What is Your own university is a public institution. That's right. Important institute But the university its own community and for the community of Berkeley that live around them. All of it began the first time some of you who know better and are old enough to know better, let young people think that they have the right to choose the laws they would obey as long as they were doing it in the name of social protest. I'm sick tired of the argument about whether some effort to enforce law and order is going to escalate anything at all. Plain truth of the matter is this has to stop and it has to stop like the day before yesterday. And it's going to be stopped whatever it takes.

We should all post this video so that people know what they are supporting when they back Hamas. Hamas explained in 1 minute. https://t.co/5NzF4Lb0k8

Video Transcript AI Summary
Hamas, the second richest terror organization globally with a $1 billion annual turnover, prioritizes profit over the well-being of Gaza's residents. Instead of investing in clean water sources, they focus on smuggling goods through tunnels for personal gain. Consequently, contaminated water contributes to 12% of childhood deaths in Gaza. Surprisingly, the majority of Hamas leaders don't even reside in the area. This highlights the unfortunate reality that the money meant for the citizens ends up lining the pockets of these leaders. It is crucial to free Palestine from this situation.
