GLENN: So I want to take you up to almost where Santa lives, in a place almost just as imaginative as Santa land. It's called Canada. Where Justin Trudeau has been just a military jacket away from being more like his dad in Cuba.

But it's falling apart in Canada. His finance minister, which is the number two position, walked out. He said, I -- you know, I want to do another role for you. And she said, the only viable thing is, if I leave, the cabinet. This is the woman who shut down all of the social media gift-giving services. And was freezing people's bank accounts during the trucker strike.

She's also the one that does all of the trade deals, between the United States and Canada.

Gee, I wonder what she's worried about.

Meanwhile, Justin Trudeau has just been giving away all kinds of monies.

He's got a sales tax holiday for Canadians, and sending checks to Canadians that need it.

Right now, during the Christmas season. And he's also a -- you know, some -- some other things that are -- people aren't real, real happy about.

Is his reign over?

Or is he going to be elected to a fourth term?

I made a prediction today. And I know nothing about Canada.

Today may be his last day.

It's that close!

GLENN: Hero, really, of the Canadian people.

Ezra Levant.

Hello, Ezra.

EZRA: Glenn, it's great to talk to you today.

I heard your introduction about Chrystia Freeland, Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister. She's much more than that. It would be like Dick Cheney was to George Bush Jr.

I mean, the everything fixer. Totally involved in all the files.

That was Chrystia Freeland. And she quit yesterday, and she timed her leaving to detonate the morning she was supposed to deliver a mini budget.

So that whole thing was thrown in -- you know, into a mess.

GLENN: And basically, didn't she say that because we're -- we're spending all of our money. And we have to stop, because we might get into a trade war with America.

EZRA: She did. And in her resignation letter.

Which she published. She accused Trudeau of being a narcissist. Of being in it for himself. She didn't use the word narcissist. But she said, we have to think about more than just ourselves. We have to think about the country.

She accused him of, quote, political gimmicks.

And the thing is, she was his right-hand woman since the very beginning.

And I want to tell you one more thing about Christie free LAN.

She's on the board of trustees. Of the World Economic Forum.

And what was her job right before she became a member of parliament to join Trudeau?

You're not going to believe me.

She was the authorized biographer, of George Soros.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

EZRA: So the deputy prime minister and finance minister -- but really, the everything minister of Canada. She was like I say, like Dick Cheney to George Bush. She was the right-hand man on every file.

GLENN: So was she more of the architect of this, or is Trudeau capable of doing it?

What I'm asking, is Trudeau more of a Biden, and she's more of an Obama?

Or is it Dick Cheney and George W. Bush?

EZRA: Trudeau loves the sizzle of being Prime Minister. He loves the adulation.

It's hard to come by. So, for instance, he went to the recent Taylor Swift concert and he exchanged friendship bracelets with teenage girls. That's his marketplace.

Everyone else shouts at him.

GLENN: Wow.

EZRA: So he -- he was never a policy guy.

He would leave that to the grownups.

And Chrystia Freeland and George Soros would fill that void. And I'm not just saying George Soros as a throwaway line.

A few years ago, Canada signed a contract with the Open Societies Foundation to draft our refugee policy.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh!

EZRA: So this is not a rumor.

GLENN: Oh, my gosh.

EZRA: He literally outsourced -- so Chrystia Freeland departing is an enormous blow.

But, look, Canadians are -- can hardly wait to get rid of Trudeau. I don't want to sound overconfident. But the conservative opposition leadership. His name is Pierre Poilievre. He's excellent.

He's -- he's way out ahead in the polls.
Remember, we have a multi-party system. So there's about five parties in parliament.

The conservatives are at 43. Now, I know that may sound low in an American party system.

When you've got five parties, 43 percent means you will have a massive victory. And last night, after Chrystia Freeland detonated Trudeau and quit, there was a pollster that went into the field immediately. And his results are just being posted. Only 11 percent of Canadians approve of Trudeau, 11 percent. It's going to be a massacre.

Last factoid.

GLENN: This is happy news. This is really happy news.

EZRA: It is good news.

While everyone was focused on the intrigues in Ottawa, there was a special election in the province of British Columbia, from one of these members of parliament. And the conservatives, led by Pierre Poilievre.

Got 66 percent in the local district.

GLENN: In Vancouver BC?

EZRA: In the -- not in Vancouver proper, but nearby.

So in BC, which is sort of like Washington States, it's a little bit hippie.

GLENN: A little bit?

EZRA: Yeah.

Glenn, I have to tell you, people of every background, according to the pollsters, men and women. Young and old, and minorities. They all want Trudeau gone, which is so interesting.

Because he came to power, as the woke guy, who --

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

EZRA: You know, I'm a male feminist. He said. Et cetera.

Canadians are finally done with it. We just need that moment where we get to go to vote.

STU: Ezra, I hate to simplify your country's politics this way. Glenn, with the apple guy.

The member of the viral video, where he was just sitting and answering questions. That's the guy.

GLENN: I love that guy.

STU: Yes. I think everybody in America who saw that video loves this guy.

GLENN: Oh, I love that guy.

EZRA: That apple eating thing, give me 30 seconds on that. You know, he was answering questions from a left-wing journalist, while casually eating an apple.

GLENN: I loved it.

EZRA: Whenever the journalists would say, well, people say you're like Trump. And he would say, what people?

And what did they say?

And he just did this a bunch of times. Proving that the journalist was just, you know, taking cheap shots.

And when he said people say, he was just saying, I say.

It was masterful.

And why -- there was no real policy talked about.

The reason that was important, Glenn. Is because it shows the pure -- it has a Trump-like disdain for journalism.

Why is that important?

Because too many Canadian conservatives are so worried about what the media will say about them, they respond to the pure pressure of journalism.

They want to give an answer that the journalist wants. Poilievre is not afraid to look at our version of CNN in the eyes.

And say, you know, I -- and attack them. And insult them, and poke back.

So I know, if he's elected Prime Minister. That he will be largely immune, to the mean girls club. Or the media party.

GLENN: And that's saying something.

Because you have the CBC. That's like our PBS. Except, that's the main -- I mean, they control the -- they are the CNN. NBC. ABC. They're everything up there.

EZRA: They're larger than all other media combined. Our state broadcaster has more journalists than every other media company combined. You can imagine how that really could distort the national conversation.

Plus, a lot of Canadians get their info through social media. Which is why Trudeau's introduced legislation that would criminalize, including with a life in prison. There's a -- Trudeau has introduced a bill.

Called C63.

That has a life in prison component. For, quote, hate crimes.

Including hate speech.

That's one of the reasons Jordan Peterson cited for moving into America.

This bill C63.

And we will fight that bill, if it becomes law.

The way things are looking. I think Trudeau may not last long enough to make it into law.

GLENN: So what happened?

I mean, parliamentary systems are so weird. You can call it an election at any time.

Which is kind of weird.

But does he have to call for one. Or does he have to step down?

Can there be a vote of no confidence?

What happens next?

VOICE: Well, he only has a minority in our parliament. He's propped up by a hardcore Socialist Party, called the MVP. The new Democrats.

GLENN: Right.

And didn't they just come out and pretty much say, we're done with you?

VOICE: No, it's trickier. They said, we demand Trudeau resign!

And then when they said, will you vote nonconfidence with him?

They refused to. They lining to pretend they're against Trudeau. They have never -- so if -- Trudeau is the master of his own destiny. As long as no one has the courage to push him out.

And if there was a non-confidence vote, he could be thrown out, and an election would be forced.

But I don't think his critics have the courage to do that. I don't think they have the numbers. And look, these polls are so awful, Glenn.

A lot of the liberals who are sick of Trudeau, and worried he's painting things.

They know they will lose, whether the election is now or in six months.

So why not drag it out for six more months?

Get paid. Enjoy their power. Run things a little longer. If you're a liberal MP and you know you will lose the next election, why wouldn't you at least stretch it out, three, six, nine months, to get as much from the -- from your job as possible. Get as much money, power, influence. I think the liberals will be smashed, but Trudeau will probably -- listen. He is stubborn. And he is a fighter.

I've never seen him apologize. I've never seen him quit.

He has a lot of flaws.

But tenacity is not one of them.

GLENN: How much of a role did the election of Donald Trump play in this?

Are you guys just -- right just behind us on what's happening here in America?

ANN: That's such a great question.

In a way, a Trump tweet started the dominoes falling.

GLENN: I knew it. I knew it.

ANN: About a month ago. About a month ago, Trump tweeted, 25 percent tariffs on Mexico and Canada. If they don't seal their borders.

Stop the illegal drugs. Stop the illegal immigrants.

So it was -- and Mexico immediately got on the phone.

GLENN: Yeah. Hang on just a second.

Why did -- why does Canada have such a hard time with that?

Just, we need to you enforce your laws.

That's all we need!

EZRA: And Pierre Poilievre, the conservative thing said, look, I don't want to do those things because Donald Trump tells me to. I want to do those things because it's in Canadian interest.

And Trump is worried about fentanyl coming through Canada into the states.

Well, Canadians should be worried about that too. In fact, we are.

We have had a huge crime wave under Trudeau. So the smart, grown-up answer is okay. Trump is asking sort of roughly, like he's being a little bit -- he's got that.

GLENN: Yeah. He's Donald Trump.

ANN: He's walking softly, but carrying a big stick. Deal with him.

He's not asking Canadians for anything that we don't want.

Just do it.

But instead, one more thing at you, Glenn.

Here's my theory of why Trudeau is fighting.

As I mentioned. Trudeau is so low in the polls.

And this conservative leader is so high.

But what if Trudeau could flip it. And instead of running against Pierre Poilievre, the conservative leader. What if Trudeau would say, I'm running against Trump?

Because Trump is not that popular in Canada. Because the media has bashed him for two years.

GLENN: He needed that too.

EZRA: What if Trump -- it's even worse up here. It's even worse up here.

GLENN: Yeah, I know.

EZRA: But one more move, what if Trump actually implements the tariff on Canada. It hurts our economy.

So now Trudeau can say, this terrible economy is not my fault. It's trump's fault.

Vote for me, if you want to stand up to Trump. Vote for me if you don't like Trump. Vote for me.

GLENN: That's great strategy!

EZRA: I think Trudeau is willing to sacrifice Canada's economy, for this desperate chance to run and win again. That's my theory at least.

GLENN: You know what, to me, that makes sense.

And, you know what, honestly, to understand Donald Trump, you have to understand, he never -- when he's negotiating.

He never threatens.

He's never threatening.

He just makes promises.

If you do this, I'll do that.

If you do this, I'll do that.

And he will!

He will!

So he's not threatening. Just making promises.

EZRA: Well, and why wouldn't Canada say, all right. You've got our attention.

We agree, you've got a border problem.

By the way, it goes both ways. When Trump will deport a large amount of illegal migrants.

Some of them will say, oh, we better come into Canada because there's such a soft touch.

So we -- we have an interest in having a strong border. Because we don't want all the folks Trump is going to deport, including those who committed crimes.

GLENN: Correct, and those who will self-deport. Self-deport.

Yeah. All those Haitians, they are going to want to go to Montreal, a French-speaking city, rather than go back to Haiti. Wouldn't you?

We need a strong border, also.

Trudeau would rather fight with Trump, for the media kudos and then actually fix a problem. It's his last desperate chance.

But, you know what, I hope Canada comes back, and the Trump revolution. It's not just a political and economic one.

It's a freedom revolution.

Free speech. Elon Musk.

RFK Jr. Basically, rebuking the COVID mentality.

Hopefully some of that freedom will slosh into the border into us, Glenn.

GLENN: Yeah. One last thing. And we both have to run.

You have one in every 20 persons, now. Selecting suicide.

And more women are electing for euthanasia. Than -- than men are.

I mean, this is getting way out of control, euthanasia in Canada. Isn't it?

EZRA: And our Veterans Affairs department is suggest euthanasia for soldiers who have PTSD. If you say you're depressed, they will literally use that as a reason to give -- they call it MAID. Medical Assistance In Dying.

It's the new word for euthanasia. Canada is now ahead of the Netherlands for this.

Partly it's socialized medicine. Because if you kill someone, they won't cost 100 grand a year on intensive care. Part of it is also the war on the concept of life.

Trudeau is an absolutist for abortion. And this is an extension of sort of what eugenics approach.

It's dark days for those who value life in Canada, Glenn.

GLENN: I hope your theory is absolutely wrong.

But I've watched you long enough to know. Your theory is probably right.

I hope you're wrong though.

Thank you so much, Ezra.

EZRA: Thanks, Glenn. Buh-bye.

VOICE: Z10852. Something weird is going on. The World Trade Center is on fire.

VOICE: Seriously the top of the building. We're trying to get information.

VOICE: Top level of one of the --

VOICE: To unfold from New York City.

VOICE: A plane crashed just --

VOICE: My sister is in that believe. I hope she's okay. I have to come to New York.

VOICE: It's pandemonium.

VOICE: It's raining papers.

VOICE: Wait a minute! Stop just a second. Why are we -- why are we -- I've got breaking news. Breaking news, yesterday. New York City just elected as their mayoral candidate for the left. And the Democrats, a -- a Muslim radical, who is also a communist!

So, you know, it only took you 25 years. It only took you 25 years, New York, to go completely insane.

Somebody who is -- well, I mean, if I might quote Michael malice today. I am old enough to remember when New Yorkers endured 9/11 instead of voting for it.

But you've got a -- you've got a communist jihadist apologist now.

Who was -- you know, well, CAIR put $100,000 behind his bid for New York City mayor.

So you have somebody who is endorsed by CAIR. That's really good.

He also was somebody who said, you know, he was -- he was for the shooting of the United Health Care CEO.

Said he was looking forward to driving down magnum Joan avenue. I don't know. Sounds like supporting people in the streets. Maybe it's just me.

Then he also said that he was going to globalize the intifada, which I think that's -- maybe -- maybe that's just me.

I mean, what do I know?

Tim Miller who is a podcaster. Asked him a few weeks ago. Asked him about his pro Palestinian slogan. Globalized the intifada. And he said, for me, ultimately, what I hear in so many, is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights, in standing up for Palistinian human rights. Oh, is that what you hear, Mr. CAIR?

Really? Huh, that's interesting.

Right. So globalize the intifada.

I mean, I mean, sure, that's -- I mean well, let me go on.

Because I don't want to take him out of context.

He then delved into the semantics of the intifada, citing the United States Holocaust memorial museum's use of a word for a translation for uprising, in an Arabic version of an article, a museum published about the Warsaw ghetto.

Oh!

So this is just a comparison, about the -- the armed rebellion against the Nazis!

I don't know if that makes me feel better!

I mean, if we're globalizing that.

We're the Nazis in this scenario.

Because I don't think it's the Palestinians.

I certainly don't think it's anybody who is like, hey.

Global jihad. I don't think it's those guys.

Or the Nazis. Who are the Nazis in that?

And it seems, if that's what you mean, then it's not just a harmless kind of slogan about human rights. It is a call for violence on the streets.

Because I don't know if you know, that's what happened when the Jews had their uprising against the Nazis.

I'm just saying!

But, hey, hey, free Palestine.

Oh, that's not what that means, gang. That is not what that means, but don't worry about it. He's just going to be possibly the new mayor.

And that's great. By the way, the Columbia faculty members signed a letter defending Hamas.

They were also among the donors to his mayoral campaign.

So, you know, you don't have anything to worry about.

And his father, who used to work at Columbia. Do you know, Stu?

Is his Dad -- is he still a professor at Columbia University?

He said that -- this violent terror thing of Islam, is not a part of Islam. Now, I've read the Koran, and much of the hadith.

And I'm pretty sure the violence is a part of that. But no.

No. This is something entirely new.

And his father while at Columbia university, wanted everybody to know, that this is actually -- this is something that came out of America!

America is really responsible for this.

And, you know, it really started with the Reagan administration, you know, when he started -- when he started with his very religious terms, to finish the war against the evil empire.

So, you know, that's where -- that's where 9/11 came from.

Is what -- don't worry about it! Don't worry about it!

Because who am I? I'm clearly just -- am I an anti-Semite today, or am I an Islamophobic? I can't remember which one.

Oh, it's probably both. Anyway, Islamophobia. Let me just explain Islamophobia. I haven't even gotten to the Communist part of it. Which is really, really -- New York, you're in one for hell of a ride. Buckle up.

It will be a fun rollercoaster for you. My gosh, I've never been happier that I've been away are if New York.

Anyway, I just want I to know, there is Islam. And then there is Islamists. Now, an Islamist is somebody who really wants Sharia law.

That's political Islam!

That's not a faith. That's political Islam.

Now, let me make really -- something really clear. Criticizing Islamism, is not Islamophobia. Pointing out the dangers of, oh. I don't know.

Political Islam. The ideology that seeks to use the tools of democracy, ultimately to destroy democracy, is not an attack on Muslims.

No. Uh-uh.

You know why?

Because Muslims are often the first people in line.

The first victims of the ideology.

So let's draw a bright, bright line between Islam as a faith, millions of people can practice that faithfully and peacefully.

It's mostly peaceful, okay?

Then there's the Islamism.

Islamism is something entirely -- that's a political project.

A theocratic political -- oh. Left loves theocracies. They love it.

Of course, you never see a problem with it.

See it when an Islamist is touting it. Anyway, it's not about prayer. It's not about fasting. It's not about spiritual life.

It's all about power. It's about merging of mosque and state. It's about implementing Sharia, not as a personal code of conduct. But as a governing legal system.

And it's -- it's supremacy.

Absolutely. Faith.

Religion.

It's -- there's one thing that's supreme.

It's misogynistic.

Deeply intolerant of all kinds of things.

Descent. Secularism. Other faiths. Even competing interpretations from inside the faith itself.

It will behead them too.

So let's -- let's be honest here for a second.

You know, CAIR should be labeled an international terror organization.

In my opinion. In my opinion.

Oh, does that make me -- that makes me an Islamophobe. I'm sure. I'm sure they will start a campaign against me on being an Islamophobe.

Stand in line, guys. You've been doing it since 2001, okay?

I don't really care. And I don't think the American people. I think that record, all the grooves are worn-out on that one, okay?

This is not a religion we're talking about. When we're talking about Sharia law. And we're talking about globalize the intifada. What does that mean, actually, to globalize it?

Does that mean we now want to do what is happening to Israel? All over the world?

Has the Palestinian plight become our plight you now, as Americans?

That there has to be an intifada here!

Because it's the kind of the same. You know. It's kind of the same over, you know, with what the Palestinians are going through.

Well, it's very much like what the Jews went through with the Nazis.

That's a weird one. That one makes my head hurt. It's very much the same as that. And very much the same as the fight against Donald Trump.

Oh, this is going to be fun. It's fun!

Really fun. You know, the irony here is, the ones that will scream Islamophobia the most, are the ones in the progressive left, the champions of feminism, LGBTQ rights. And secularism.

They're going to -- no. You want -- they're going to stand with the people, who want to kill them first.

See, this is how smart they are!

This is why it's going to work out well, in New York City.

Let me just say. If you have an ounce of common sense, you run a business, you have an ounce of wealth. And I don't mean wealth like, you know, hey, Lovey.

Let's get on the boat for a three-hour tour with a suitcase full of cash. I mean you saved anything, anything, get the hell out of New York City.

I mean, this is about survival. This is about free speech. This is about women's rights.
Religious pluralism. Secular legal systems. Liberal democracy.

But it's also about failed principles of Communism. Okay?

First, you have to call out political Islam for what it is. Okay?

And we have to do it with the clarity that we call out white nationalism.

Got to do it with that. Got to -- you know, the Klan. Really bad people.

Really bad people.

Anybody who is shouting for globalized intifada?

Pretty bad. Pretty bad people.

Okay?

Now, let's get to communism.

Because that's another cool, cool angle of the new Democratic candidate for -- for mayor of New York City.

That I just -- I think is cuddly and cute. Sure, it led to 100 million deaths. But this time, New York is going to be radically different. Oh, did I use the word radical?

I didn't mean to use that. What's radical about this guy?

Nothing. He's just like you!

Well, not exactly.

But let's talk about communism, next!

Now, the new mayoral candidate that's running there in New York City. That so many young people rushed to defend and vote for. He's promising free buses.

That's going to work out.

Where are you going to get the money for free buses.

It's free!

City-run grocery stores.

Oh, rent freezes. And finally somebody has done it. A 30-dollar minimum wage.

So under the banner of equity. And, you know, we will tax the wealthy. And the corporations. You know, we're going to squeeze another $10 billion out of them.

Really?

Because they're going to call a U-Haul.

You know, they will call something like U-Haul. There will be a lot of -- there will be a lot of movers that are like, how do I get the truck back from Texas or Florida back up to New York? Nobody is moving up there.

But he's going to do it.

Now, his vision isn't really new. You know, just -- just tax people, so we could have city-run grocery stores. You know, I remember -- I'm old enough to remember those city-run grocery stores in Moscow.

They were great.

The shelves were empty.

But that's just Moscow.

It worked out completely different in Venezuela.

Where, oh, no.

It didn't. That's right. The grocery store.

They were eating the zoo animals.

But it will be different in New York.

Because they have rent controls too.

And that will just choke the housing supply, but don't worry. As a young family.

You know, you voted for it.

You know better.

It will work this time.

So, you know, I like building ideas, I just don't like usually building on the graves of 100 million people.

But, you know, why not? Why not?

You know, use this dogma.

And this time, it will be different. It's not like it was in China. Where the great leap forward, was a gross -- a gross parody of progress. Venezuela, which was oil rich. One of the richest nations in the hemisphere now sees 90 percent of its population in poverty!

Yeah. Darn it. You know what they did?

They decided to take state control of things.

You know, like grocery stores. And it worked out well. How is that free busing working out in Venezuela?

I just want to -- I just want to know.

Anyway, then you've got the globalize the intifada. Which is going to drop a little violence in, and anti-Semitism in with your communism.

Which is weird!

Because violence and anti-Semitism, always happen. When it -- when it comes to -- when it comes to communism.

This is weird!

I've got to play something for you. Because this has talked about on me earlier this morning.

Oh, wow.

Wait a minute. This is -- this is the whole coalition coming together here.

So this is going to be good. New York, this is going to be great.

It's going to be great for you.

No. He's going to uplift you. Then the social fabric of New York City is just going to be -- just one.

It's going to be fantastic. Don't worry about your 120 billion dollars in debt. Or your 10 billion-dollar deficit that you have right now.

You are going to charge the rich more taxes, and they will stay right there.

They will be like, you know what, that 46 percent in taxes that I'm paying, this is just not enough. It's just not enough.

I need to pay 60 or 70 percent to be able to pay my fair share. So that's good. That's good. That's good.

You know, they're not risking 100 million people. It's just 8 million people.

This time, it's just 8 million people.

But, hey. For those of you in upstate New York. That aren't going to be part of this experiment.

Don't worry, you get to pay for it. Because they'll kick it up to the state. The state will have to subsidize everything. And don't you love it?

Really, don't you want to subsidize the really crazy ideas of New York City?

I mean, why don't you have a -- why don't you have a democratic socialist. A/k/a communist mayor.

Why haven't you done that? Are you not progressive enough? Are you not looking into the future?

Are you stuck in the past?

I don't know. I don't know. The graveyard is pretty big. I have a hard time getting past that one. You know, yeah, so I'm stuck in the past. Because I can't seem to pass that graveyard, and get to be down the path with you. But it's going to be a paradise.

Forget arithmetic. You know, or human nature. This time, it's going to work. It's going to work. So all right!

Wish I lived in this morning.

No wait. Nope. I don't. Nope, I don't.

And Ted Cruz, stop it. Stop writing, hey, come to Texas. No. No. Don't come to Texas. Don't come to Florida. Go to California. It's beautiful this time of year. Go there. Go there.
