Hello, my friends. You know, I'm starting to see a pattern with Mark Carney. He says one thing, then he says the opposite and maybe he'll say a third thing. And I'm trying to figure it out, are they, are some of them lies or does he actually believe all of them are at once? Does he even know what he's doing? I'm going to give you about three or four examples of him saying things. Just the bald faced lion look in the eyes saying it. I think there's something broken with this guy. I'll have the video proof for you to see for yourself. And I want you to get the video version. I want you to see him say these things and to do so, you need to have a video subscription to this podcast. Go to Rebel News plus, that's what we call it. It's eight bucks a month, which may not sound like a lot to you, but boy, it adds up for us. That's how we pay the bills around here because we get no money from the government and it shows.

Tonight. Does Mark Carney change his story because he's lying or does he actually believe both versions? It's March 20th and this is the Ezra Levant Show. Shame on you, you censorious bug. The Strait of Hormuz, that's a phrase that's in the news a lot. Everyone's an expert on the Strait of Hormuz these days. If you're wondering what that is, if you haven't been following, it's the narrowest part of the Persian Gulf where all the oil tankers that load up from different Gulf countries, including Iran, have to go through this very narrow place. It's sort of like Gibraltar in that way, which is the very narrow entry and exit of the Mediterranean Sea. Anyways, it's a choke point for a big chunk of the world's oil, mainly oil that goes to Asia, such as China, India, Taiwan, places like that. Of course, the United States is now self sufficient when it comes to oil and other countries get it from other places. The United Kingdom, for example, has North Sea oil from itself and mainly from Norway these days. Anyways, one of the moves that Iran could do or that America could do would be to use that choke point strategically. And Iran has been threatening to lay mines, to mine the Strait of Hormoon or to shoot at tankers. That's one of the reasons why the United States focused on sinking the Iranian navy. That's the Strait of Hormuz. And it's become a bit of a conversation point in the war. And Donald Trump has said he wants help from allies to patrol and protect the Strait of Hormuz. And let's be candid. The United States Navy is mightier than all the NATO navies put together. The United Kingdom has two aircraft carriers. I don't think either is working right now. France has one aircraft carrier, but it's in the Mediterranean. Really, what is this other than a symbolic statement that why should America alone defend oil that doesn't go to America? Maybe 1% of oil from the Persian Gulf goes to America. The vast amount goes to China, India, et cetera. So it was a statement basically saying, I demand other countries to help. Funny enough, Argentina, which is very far away, said it would help. I think that's Javier Milei trying to show his support for Donald Trump. Trump had harsh words for NATO, which talks tough but doesn't actually help. Which is interesting because for four years now, NATO, especially the European partners, have demanded that the United States assist in the European war of Russia invading Ukraine. They don't seem to want to help Donald Trump in return, even though the United States has sent over $100 billion into the Ukraine conflict. Anyways, that's a very interesting thing. And there's different ways to approach it. I think one way that Europe should think about from time to time is that America came to help save Europe in its dire need in the Second World War. And so even if there may be some policy disagreements, perhaps they should show that the alliance is bigger than that. I think a number of European countries have disgraced themselves by accepting the benefits of a US Military base in their country, namely billions of dollars a year. But when the United States actually needs it, refusing to let the US Fly aircraft from those bases, and that includes Kearstorm in the UK Anyways, back to the Strait of Hormuz. Forgive me for that little disquisition there. What's interesting is Mark Carney's approach to the war. At first, he said he put out a statement that clearly was not written in Canada, saying that Canada supported the attack. That was the very first word from Canada. A statement that appeared to be written by NATO. Then the flip flops began. That Canada wanted a diplomatic solution, that Canada wanted a ceasefire, which was a crazy thing said by our defense minister. Ceasefire. The only people really firing or least firing 100 times to everyone that Iran fired was the United States. Basically, it was Canada telling the U.S. and Israel to stop taking out the terrorist dictatorship of Iran. I think that the Canadian government went through five different positions, including we will never help to. Yes, we'll help in a defensive way to we will de escalate things and assist. It was sort of crazy. Take a look at the response to Donald Trump's demand for help in the Strait of Hormuz. Here's a tweet from CTV reporting on Anita Anand, who says Anand clarifies that any role in the Iran war must fit its legal and policy frameworks. So Canada finally said yes will help, but now only if it helps within our legal and policy framework. So is that a yes or a no? I mean, these are tanker ships that Canada would be protecting. How is that not something Canada would do? Well, here's the real answer. I mean it's, it, you know, it's, it's like the child's taunt, you and what are me. So let's say Canada said it would support. Okay, with what? Here's a video I saw on the CBC of all places where an expert in the Canadian Navy says even if we had a ship that could get there, it would need to be protected by the other ships because our Canadian warships do not have the anti missile and anti drone technology. So we could have a ship there, but it wouldn't be protecting anything. It would need protection from things. Our ships cannot go into a modern war zone. It's too dangerous. Take a look at this.
