WEBVTT 1 00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:07.360 Thank you for listening to Depictions Media Radio. 2 00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:28.879 Welcome to Policy and Writes. Go Show, Kay Golcom Policy 3 00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:53.960 Human Joy. 4 00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:58.880 Welcome back to policy and rights here in Depictions Media Radio. 5 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:03.439 I'm your host, Michael Clark. So today we're going to 6 00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:09.719 talk about the peace deal that happened in Palestine, the 7 00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:14.840 Hamas of course, turning over more than two thousand prisoners, 8 00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:20.040 and what a lot of people are hoping to be 9 00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:24.560 more than just a prisoner exchanged, hoping the real negotiations 10 00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:27.719 about a two state solutions are going to happen between 11 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:36.400 Israel and and Palestinian people, that it will that some 12 00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:40.640 of what many people are calling the woes of colonialism 13 00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:44.920 will be stunted a little bit for the Palestinian people 14 00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:52.319 and allow them to thrive as an independent sovereign nation. Now, 15 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:59.840 remember before under the Ottoman Empire, uh we if we 16 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:05.040 roll of clock back to that point, Palestine was actually 17 00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:12.439 a sovereign country until the British took over the the 18 00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:22.879 Ottoman territories. So we're gonna we're actually have heard that 19 00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.680 despite the ceasefire, that there was still shelling and gunfire 20 00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:33.520 happening in the Gaza Strip even coming into this morning 21 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:39.000 as the IDF was reportedly pulling back out of Gaza. 22 00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:50.080 So Mark Karney negotiation with Donald Trump and the over 23 00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:56.719 the tariffs and trade issues with the United States is 24 00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:06.319 quote saying that maybe, uh, the renegotiating renegotiating the CU 25 00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:11.479 SMA will not resolve all trade issues. That there's still 26 00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:15.199 going to be industries such as steel, auto, and energy 27 00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:19.280 that are still going to receive tarres. Along with that 28 00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:24.159 the software lumber industry it's always been kind of problematic 29 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:28.439 as they provide most of the software lumber for house 30 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:37.080 building across the United States and Canada. That there's still 31 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:40.800 going to be a trouble spot with tarifs and trade deals. 32 00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:48.960 So you were going to hear the conversation that with 33 00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:55.319 the press that Mark Carney had with Donald Trump over 34 00:03:55.719 --> 00:04:04.960 the negotiating of trade and how Donald Trump says I 35 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:07.479 like the guy. He's a good man and I want 36 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:13.479 to be great too. So well, we'll have to hear 37 00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:18.319 and listen to how all that played out. Donald Trump 38 00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:24.920 over Arctic icebreakers with deal with with Finland, We're going 39 00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:31.319 to hear here that also as he had a visit 40 00:04:32.519 --> 00:04:39.879 in a bilateral meetings again with Alexander Stubb and how 41 00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:43.160 the icebreakers are going to be built there at total 42 00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:50.120 of I believe seven of them, and and how is 43 00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:54.959 it going to affect the Arctic security and Arctic industries 44 00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:02.800 between the United States and Finland. So why don't we 45 00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:07.079 get started and hear how this all played out with 46 00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:11.920 Donald Trump sitting in the White House as he had 47 00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:16.920 his bilateral meetings and press conferences from there. 48 00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:21.639 Thank you very much, everybody. 49 00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:24.720 It's an honor to have the Prime Minister of Canada, 50 00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:28.639 Mark McCarney, who I have made very popular. He's an 51 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:32.519 extremely popular prime minister, and I'm very honored to do 52 00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:34.639 it because I liked him. Pray, from the beginning. I 53 00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:37.560 liked him, and we've had a good relationship. We have 54 00:05:37.639 --> 00:05:41.439 some natural conflict, but we will probably work that out. 55 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:45.680 But we've had a very strong relationship. And you're hosting 56 00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:48.759 of the various countries that showed up. That was a 57 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:52.120 beautiful job you did. I appreciate it very much. We're 58 00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:54.279 gonna be talking about trade, We're gonna be talking about 59 00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:55.199 a lot of different things. 60 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:56.879 We'll certainly be talking about Gaza. 61 00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:02.920 We're in very serious negociations to I guess you could say, 62 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:05.720 depending on the way you count three thousand years, you 63 00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.560 could say, five hundred years, you could say, but that 64 00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:12.040 it's been raging for a long time, and I think 65 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.240 there's a possibility that we could have peace in the 66 00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:18.560 Middle East. It's something even beyond the Gaza situation. We 67 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:22.480 want a release of the hostages immediately, etc. And so 68 00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.720 our team is over there now, another team just left, 69 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.000 and other countries, literally every country in the world has 70 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.560 supported the plan. I don't think there's anybody that hasn't. Actually, 71 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:38.040 not that I've seen. But there's a real chance that 72 00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.480 we could do something. So you may have some questions 73 00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:42.959 on that later. But in the meantime, we'll spend some 74 00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.120 time and we'll make some deals, and we'll do some 75 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:49.120 things that are good for both of our countries and markets. 76 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:49.839 And honor to have you. 77 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:52.279 Thank you Remina very much, mister President, if I may, 78 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.920 you kindly hosted me and some of my colleagues a 79 00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:58.480 few months ago, and I said at the time you 80 00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:03.759 are a transformative present and since then, the transformation in 81 00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:08.480 the economy, unprecedented commitments of NATO partners to defense, spending, 82 00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:13.600 peace from India, Pakistan through to Azerbaijan, Armenia, uh disabling 83 00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:16.160 Iran as a force of terror. UH, and now, and 84 00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.720 I'm running out of time, but this is many respects 85 00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:24.120 the most important UH trade of Canada. 86 00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:26.240 I wasn't where I was going. 87 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.079 I would know, but you know, on this, on this 88 00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:33.839 solemn day of commemoration of the Octo October sarific attacks 89 00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:38.319 of October seven, UH, for the first time in decades, 90 00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:41.319 hundreds of years, thousands of years, this prospect of peace 91 00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:45.399 that you've made possible. Canada stands for square behind those efforts, 92 00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.040 and we'll do whatever we can to support. 93 00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:55.000 Yeah, thank you man very much. Any questions any. 94 00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.199 What would it take for you to draw or lower 95 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:00.759 your tariffs on Canadian sectors in Kuman and aminumst. 96 00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.240 We're going to be talking about that with the Prime Minister. 97 00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:05.920 We'll be talking about taris. We'll be talking about a 98 00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:08.279 lot of that, but that's for a little bit later on. 99 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:14.480 Acknowledge are a great ambassador. Is he doing a good job. 100 00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:15.319 He's doing a good job. 101 00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:22.240 Aways I'll get him out of there. 102 00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.560 Is it the White House his position that furloughed workers 103 00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:28.319 should be paid for their back pay. 104 00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:31.560 I would say it depends on who we're talking about. 105 00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:34.200 I can tell you this the Democrats that put a 106 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.799 lot of people in great risk and jeopardy. But it 107 00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:39.320 really depends on who you're talking about. But for the 108 00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:40.679 most part, we're going to take care. 109 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:41.200 Of our people. 110 00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.759 There are some people that really don't deserve to be 111 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:45.679 taken care of, and we'll take care of them in 112 00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:52.440 a different way than you. 113 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.759 Why in the United States failed to read it up 114 00:08:55.840 --> 00:09:00.360 until now, Well, it's a complicated agreement, more complicated maybe 115 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.039 than any other agreement we have on trade, because you know, 116 00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:05.360 we have natural conflict. 117 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.600 We also have mutual love. You know, we have great 118 00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:09.039 love for each other. I love this. 119 00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:12.360 I love Canada the people of Canada, and Mark feels 120 00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:12.840 the same. 121 00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:14.120 Way about here. 122 00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.320 The problem we have is that they want a car 123 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.159 company and I want a car company. Meaning the US 124 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.679 wants a car company and. 125 00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.440 They want steel and we want steal. 126 00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:28.759 You know, so in other countries they're very far away 127 00:09:29.080 --> 00:09:32.000 and there's no problem. You can compete and you can 128 00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:34.639 do We don't like to compete because we sort of 129 00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:37.559 hurt each other when we compete, and so we have 130 00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:41.320 a natural conflict. It's a natural business conflict, nothing wrong 131 00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:43.639 with it. And I think we've come a long way 132 00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:47.279 over the last few months actually, in terms of that relationship. 133 00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:51.399 So when it comes to trade, the United States was 134 00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:54.960 always giving everything. They would they gave everything to Canada, 135 00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:58.039 and they would they would, you know, let car companies 136 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.080 leave here and go to Canada. But that hurts the 137 00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.240 United States. And you know, other presidents didn't see that. 138 00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.279 They weren't business oriented. They might have been good politicians 139 00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:09.960 and some cases not. In all cases they were bad 140 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:14.639 at both. But it's it's a very natural conflict, and 141 00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:16.039 it's something that we're working. 142 00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:21.480 Outmise this summer. 143 00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:25.559 Are you willing to offer some compromise to Canada ideal steel. 144 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:25.840 In any of that. 145 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.559 Well, we've made compromise, and we we've made some compromise 146 00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:31.960 even on steel, but you know, we have the same 147 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:36.600 basic authority and the same basic This could be also 148 00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:38.759 a little bit of a conflict with other countries all 149 00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:41.320 over the world on steel because we want to make 150 00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:43.159 our own steel. We don't want to bring steel in 151 00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:45.080 for the most part, but we will bring it in, 152 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:46.960 and we do bring it in. We continue to bring 153 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.240 it in from Canada, but there is a tariff to pay, 154 00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:53.559 and I think that would be a normal thing to say, 155 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.759 but we've come a long way. I think, Howard, we 156 00:10:56.799 --> 00:10:58.559 can truly say, do you want to make a comment 157 00:10:58.639 --> 00:10:58.840 on that? 158 00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:01.559 Parking the opportunity to work together. 159 00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.559 But as you've said, this conflict, you know, why do 160 00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:07.480 we make cars in Canada. 161 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:09.720 You've called that out and you've addressed that. 162 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:11.879 So there are places we should work together and there 163 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:14.120 are places that we have natural comfort. It's a tough 164 00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.200 situation because we want to make our cars here. At 165 00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:20.480 the same time, we want Canada to do well making cars. 166 00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:30.519 So we're working on formulas and I think we'll get there. 167 00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:32.919 Canadians are refusing to go to the US. 168 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:36.000 Numbers are down like twenty three percent in the first 169 00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:37.039 seven months of the year. 170 00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.440 What do you say to Canadians They don't want to 171 00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:41.600 go to the US now because you're fifty first state 172 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:43.799 talk because of the trade war that tear us. 173 00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:46.600 And look, I understand it. 174 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:49.000 And Americans don't want to buy cars that are made 175 00:11:49.080 --> 00:11:51.519 in Canada, you know. I mean, we have the same conflict, 176 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:56.600 so there isn't It's something that will get worked out. 177 00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:02.240 There's still great love between the two countries. But you know, 178 00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:05.799 American people want product here, they want to make it here. 179 00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.480 Detroit was emptied out and moved to Canada and moved 180 00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:14.639 to Mexico, moved to other places, not just Canada, And 181 00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:15.879 now they're all moving back. 182 00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:16.960 You know, they're moving back. 183 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:19.240 We have right now, it's just telling Mark we have 184 00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:21.759 seventeen trillion, but it's really much higher. 185 00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:23.559 That was as of a couple of months ago. 186 00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:27.720 We have over seventeen trillion dollars being invested now in 187 00:12:27.759 --> 00:12:31.600 the United States. As an example, Biden in he was 188 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:35.080 the worst president we've ever had, but they had less 189 00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:38.879 than one trillion in four years. We have more than 190 00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:43.919 seventeen trillion in eight months eight months, and I think that. 191 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:45.559 Number is going to be twenty one to twenty two 192 00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:46.399 trillion dollars. 193 00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:48.960 There's never been anything like that in the history of 194 00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:51.799 the world for any country, not even close. You know, 195 00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:54.240 if you did one trillion in a year, that's pretty good. 196 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.759 We're gonna do over twenty. And it's coming in with AI. 197 00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:01.080 It's coming in with auto lance. You know, we're building 198 00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.279 auto plants, a lot of auto plants in the US. 199 00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:05.960 It's coming in for a lot of reasons. It's coming 200 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:08.679 in because of the fact I think the November fifth 201 00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:11.240 election was a big factor, and I think the tariffs 202 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.360 are a big factor. And again, we want Canada to 203 00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.919 do great, but you know, there's a point at which 204 00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:20.399 we also want the same business. 205 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:23.559 We're competing for the same business. That's the problem. 206 00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:26.399 That's why I keep mentioning one way to solve that 207 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:29.039 problem is a very easy way. But we're competing for 208 00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:31.559 the same business. He wants to make cars, we want 209 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.440 to make cars, and were competition. And the advantage we 210 00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:38.120 have is we have this massive market. So it's a 211 00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:40.559 you know, it's quite an advantage. 212 00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:54.120 In both the Inspiration Act and that would be you know, 213 00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:58.519 a very long Stanity war of lawness and book. 214 00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:59.960 Yeah, well it's been invoked before. 215 00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:03.919 As you know, if you look at Chicago, Chicago is 216 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:06.240 a great city where there's a lot of crime. And 217 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:08.559 if the governor can't do the job, we'll do the job. 218 00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:13.879 It's all very simple. They probably had fifty murders in 219 00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:15.440 Chicago over the last. 220 00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:20.120 Five six seven months. Many people were. 221 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.559 Shot, and then the governor gets up and he says, well, 222 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.279 we can handle it. They can't handle it. They don't 223 00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:27.279 know what they're doing. The mayor is grossly incompetent. He's 224 00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.879 at a four percent approval rating. In Chicago, He's at 225 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:35.320 a four percent lowest approval rating, lower than even Deblasio. 226 00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:35.960 Had, which is hard to believe. 227 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.000 In New York, I thought de Blasio would always maintain 228 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:42.080 that record, but the Chicago guy is even lower. So 229 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:47.519 I think that we want safe cities. If you look 230 00:14:47.559 --> 00:14:50.440 at DC, you would right now, Mark, you could go out, 231 00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:53.000 take your family out to dinner. You could walk right 232 00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:55.480 down the middle of the street. There is no crime 233 00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:00.320 in DC. When I got here, this place was a 234 00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:04.200 raging hell hole where people would come from Canada, people 235 00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:06.600 would come from other places and end up getting shot. 236 00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:12.960 Nobody's being shot. The National Gunsmen unbelievable. I mean they 237 00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:14.960 are strong, tough guys. 238 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:15.159 You know. 239 00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:17.320 We want something at the Supreme Court, which is a 240 00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:21.279 big deal. Merit Everything now in this country is merit based. 241 00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:24.000 I didn't think i'd ever see it again. And we 242 00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:27.080 have our soldiers in merit based too, and they're central 243 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.679 casting and they walk through that town and I'll tell 244 00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:32.720 you what, this place is safe. It's beautiful. Now we're 245 00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:35.200 in Memphis and the same thing's happening. You're getting the 246 00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:38.519 reports the bad guys to say, we don't want anything 247 00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:41.639 to do with this, and we're removing many people and 248 00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:47.480 DC we took out seventeen one thousand, seven hundred career 249 00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:50.759 criminals and sent them back to the countries from which 250 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:53.960 they came, mostly let out by Biden and his people 251 00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:58.000 that had open border and open border policy. And you know, Canada, 252 00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:00.840 you suffered because of that too, as had come here 253 00:16:01.159 --> 00:16:04.039 and they'd go into Canada also. So we're like a 254 00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:08.600 buffer for that in terms of they Canada suffered greatly 255 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:12.039 by Biden and the open border, the policy of open water, 256 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:16.799 totally unchecked, totally unvetted, and these people were you know, 257 00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:18.639 we've you got five percent. 258 00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:20.440 Now you were getting a lot of bad people. 259 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:25.320 And we now have a closed border. You've done well. 260 00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:29.440 We have a closed border, and it's a really closed border. 261 00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:31.799 In fact, for four months, I don't even know if 262 00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.960 this is possible, but they this is the figures were released. 263 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.399 Zero people were able to come into the United States 264 00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:39.399 from the southern border. 265 00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:40.200 Zero. 266 00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:43.159 And as you know, we're we're taking a very hard 267 00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:44.080 stand on drugs. 268 00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:45.360 This is also benefiting you. 269 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:49.200 We've a lot of the we call the water drugs, 270 00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.120 the drugs that come in through water. They're not coming 271 00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:54.320 there are no boats anymore there. Frankly, there are no 272 00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:56.720 fishing boats. There's no boats at the period. If you 273 00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:59.279 want to know the truth, we'll say, does anybody go 274 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:04.160 fishing anymore? The fact is we knocked out probably saved 275 00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:07.240 at least one hundred thousand lives American lives and Canadian 276 00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:11.240 lives by taking out all those votes coming in. So 277 00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.359 it's and now they don't come in that way, and 278 00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:17.039 now they'll come in other ways, and we're not going 279 00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:20.319 to allow that either. So we've done a great job 280 00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:24.559 on that. But on crime, Chicago is a great city, 281 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:26.720 but you can't be a great city if you have 282 00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:29.240 murders and if you have a lot of problems, and 283 00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.079 they do, and they have an incompetent policy, just like 284 00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:36.319 that open border policy, anybody could come in. They came 285 00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:40.680 in from prisons, they came in from mental institutions, drug dealers, 286 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:43.079 they came in from all over the place. And we 287 00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:47.640 don't have that anymore. This country is becoming very very 288 00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:51.960 strong country. Look financially speaking, I would say that because 289 00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:54.720 of the tariffs, because of the election, because of the policy, 290 00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:57.440 because of the great, big, beautiful deal. It's what I 291 00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:00.599 added the word great because it really is the biggest. 292 00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:03.599 It's the biggest bill ever passed in the history of 293 00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:04.079 our country. 294 00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:05.319 And we don't need another bill. 295 00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:09.000 It's the biggest tax cunts, the biggest I mean when 296 00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:12.559 you think no tax on tips, no tax on social security, 297 00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:13.319 no tax. 298 00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:14.519 On overtime to the people. 299 00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:18.680 But far beyond that, what it does is incentivizes auto 300 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:22.039 plants and AI and all of the things that nobody's 301 00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:24.079 ever passed a bill like, we don't need another bill. 302 00:18:24.119 --> 00:18:26.119 We don't need any more bills. I said, let's get 303 00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:29.599 it all at once. I was greatly helped by our 304 00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:33.039 Speaker Mike Johnson and by the Senate. 305 00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:35.400 I'll tell you what John Thune's been. 306 00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:39.079 Both of those guys have been incredible, and we got 307 00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:41.240 a bill passed that we really I said, let's see 308 00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:44.839 we can get it all done. Because these Democrats are 309 00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.480 like insurrectionists. Okay, they're so bad for our country. So 310 00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:51.319 their policy is so bad for our country. I said, 311 00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:53.720 let's se if we can get it all done in 312 00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:56.599 the and everybody said it's not doable, because it's the 313 00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:59.160 biggest bill ever passed in the history of our country. 314 00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:00.559 And we got are all done. 315 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:02.640 We don't need anything else, we've got everything we want 316 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:06.440 and now because of that, that's a big reason why 317 00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.119 the companies are coming in. You know, one year depreciation, 318 00:19:09.319 --> 00:19:11.200 one year right off, one year expensing. 319 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:13.200 Nobody's ever seen anything like. 320 00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:17.400 It, so they're so they're coming in from all over 321 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:21.359 the world. But to have a great country, you can't 322 00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:24.480 have crime, and we don't have crime, but we have 323 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:28.079 cities with this tremendous crime and Chicago's one of them. 324 00:19:28.519 --> 00:19:31.200 And if the governor can't straighten it out, will straighten 325 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:32.160 it out? 326 00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:38.319 Question for the. 327 00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:45.759 ID, the UK and the your opinion, and have succeeded 328 00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:48.799 to sign deals and bring the taps down, and Canada 329 00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:49.680 still hasn't been. 330 00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:52.480 Able to do the same because they're not located right 331 00:19:52.519 --> 00:19:54.599 next to each other. And you know, it makes it 332 00:19:54.799 --> 00:19:58.079 uh in many cases it's much better and easier. 333 00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.599 But yeah, if I may, let's be clear about the 334 00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:03.359 relationship as it stands right now. 335 00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:06.359 We are the second largest trading partner of the United States. 336 00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:08.799 We do a lot of trade going across the border 337 00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:10.079 where we're cooperating. 338 00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:10.559 First thing. 339 00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:13.799 Secondly, we are the largest foreign investor in the United 340 00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:15.319 States half a trillion. 341 00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:16.119 Dollars in the last five years. 342 00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:19.759 Alone, probably eight trillion dollars in the next five years 343 00:20:19.799 --> 00:20:23.759 if we get the agreement that we expect to get. Thirdly, 344 00:20:24.039 --> 00:20:26.799 there are areas, as the President just said, where I 345 00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:29.039 wouldn't conflict, maybe not so much conflict. 346 00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:29.720 We compete. 347 00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:32.640 There are areas where we compete, and it's in those 348 00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:36.839 areas where we have to come to an agreement that works. 349 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:39.960 But there are more areas where we are stronger together, 350 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.000 and that's what we're focused on. And we're going to 351 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:44.240 get the right deal, right deal for America, right deal 352 00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:46.000 obviously from my perspective for Canada. 353 00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:56.079 Wait. 354 00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:59.680 Wait, so one thing where we are working very closely 355 00:20:59.799 --> 00:21:04.359 is the Golden Dome.
