Trump did anything, he woke us up. Sucks to be you, Donald. Once Canada wakes up. Sucks to be you. Yeah.
Charlie Angus (1:42)
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. 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. 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. 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. And there are, you know, the towns that Rely on Canadian tourism. They're really getting hit. But overall, the American tourism industry's getting crushed. Vegas is getting crushed. 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 European Europeans traveling to the US Also cratering. They are following the lead of Canada. 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. 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 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, I've seen some reports out there that there were these secret meetings held between Prime Minister Carney and leaders in Europe when Carney went to Europe back on March 17th. I can't independently confirm that there were secret meetings or that Carney specifically instructed European leaders and the rest of the world how to dump bonds in a way that wouldn't. In a way that wouldn't be seen as kind of, you know, so obvious, but that would have the intended effect of causing pain. But nonetheless, there was Canadian bond sales, or there were Canadian bond sales in early March. So I'll let you do with that data what you want to do, but I think that's important. And then, of course, end of March, you had Prime Minister Carney in one of his speeches talk about, though, how European leaders like Prime Minister Keir Starmer of the UK were reaching out to him and saying, you know what, Canada, you're right. We're gonna go gloves off here. We're gonna go elbows up here in Europe, in the UK and other places, and we gotta follow your lead. Just here's Prime Minister 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.
