The speaker discusses the so-called Great Reset, insisting it is not a conspiracy theory and noting that it has been referenced by prime minister Trudeau in a United Nations speech. The speaker explains that Pierre Polyev, the federal conservative finance critic, recently raised concerns about this concept and was criticized by some in the media and by liberals for allegedly promoting conspiracy theories.
According to the speaker, the Great Reset is the name of Klaus Schwab’s book. Schwab’s thesis, as described, is that governments and societies should “seize the opportunity of the public health and economic crisis to reimagine the world and radically change policies.” The speaker characterizes the proposed changes as a “grab bag of left wing ideas” that would mean less freedom and more government intervention, including policies that would “create massive poverty,” with particular emphasis on energy policy.
Klaus Schwab is identified as the president and founder of the World Economic Forum, also known as the Davos Summit. The speaker labels Davos as “the biggest gathering of global hypocrites in history,” describing it as a ski village in Switzerland where, every February, thousands of wealthy individuals, including billionaires, millionaires, global CEOs, and politicians, fly in with private airplanes to spend a week lecturing the world, including working people, about reducing their carbon footprint.
The speaker asserts that the Great Reset is advocated by influential people and even alluded to by Trudeau, though the discussion centers on what the reset entails and how it would impact policy, government power, and energy policy.
