"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly against the city. But the traitor moves among those within the gates freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears no traitor; he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared." ~ Taylor Caldwell, A Pillar of Iron (1965)
I hope everyone understands that it does not matter who is in the top job because the real issue is a system problem: greed. We have let many parts of our economy take advantage of the American people. This is both upsetting and scary for the future of our country. My husband and I plan to retire in another country in two years. We are very worried that Social Security will not have enough funds. We will depend on his pension, a 403(b), and a strong investment account with my financial advisor, Abby Joseph Cohen. Our national debt keeps growing more and more every month. Our government must get its spending under control and reduce the federal budget.
@@RosemarieHatch They're not just taking advantage through the economy, they've taken control of what we say and write. For instance, the guy who is interviewing JP is responsible, together with his cronies (Cameron, May, Johnson, Sunak), for flooding the UK with immigrants (over 900,000 immigrants last year - an invasion which is devastating our country).

I haven’t checked Canada’s GDP for quite some time. I visited Canada couple of times in 1990s and it was quite affluent, in some respects better off than the US. As it turns out JP is right and it is astonishing. Canada’s GDP per capita is $53k while in Mississippi it is also $53k. It is entirely beyond my comprehension. Even more astonishing is that Canadians do not riot.
One reason Canadians don't riot is that we're too spread out over a gigantic land mass in order to assemble in any kind of numbers that would draw any real attention. (Personally I wish we had the drive to protest and the finesse to do it the way the French do! They have it down to an art). Add to this the baffling fact that some Canadians don't even recognize that there's a problem, (which is how we got here in the first place). Our mainstream media is largely state-funded, and doesn't care to show our current government in a negative light, so a large number of our people are ignorant of the situation except in a "gee, groceries are getting pretty pricey" kind of way, with no inkling of why that might be. And unfortunately, the last time Canadians protested, (I'm not talking pro-Hamas protests, which are largely left alone for our leader's fear of being called some form of "ist" or "phobe"), they were trampled by horses, arrested and had their bank accounts frozen. Even those who supported them financially after their bank accounts were frozen had their own accounts frozen. And despite our "fearless leader" having been told his use of the Emergencies Act was unconstitutional, some of these people who were arrested are still being shuffled through the court system. It's ridiculous. The state of our country is ridiculous and we're all clutching the hope of an early election with our claws.
@ Thank you for an extensive reply. I see your point. I remember donating money to Canadian truckers. Then to my astonishment my money were confiscated by Canadian government. Now I am even afraid to travel there. What if they have a file on me and I’ll get detained as a troublemaker?

@@jodibraun6383 That is correct. It is why Canada can't exist without American (or other) investment. It's why Canada will never be able to sustain itself as a nation, and why uniting with the USA is the only winning choice.
As an American conservative I can't process how Boris and the Tories betrayed conservative principles and became open borders and climate change idiots.
The European Union leaders and politicians have failed to act upon the concerns of European people in relation to allowing uncontrolled migration of people to the EU causing issues. Its a situation caused by mismanagement and failures of the EU governments. What do you expect.
Jordan Peterson's clarity on the problems in Canada requires urgent attention. I propose Jordan be offered a role in the new Conservative government as Minister of Education or Minister of Reforms to get this train back on the track. Of course, the woke left-wing nutbars would never understand, too bad.
Well,,, i do not agree with you,,, Jordan Peterson use to speak decent,,, but lately he has turned to a far right activist, anything on the extremes (left or right) is very bad for this world, he s even gived a voice to Nethanyahu to justify his genocide in Gaza,,,i lost all trust in this man
Remember how Gove lauded that eco-fanatical goblin from Sweden, claiming she was some sort of guru when, in reality, she was a school refuser who was manipulated by her parents and other Lefties? Gove was part of the problem in many ways.
I do hope that the Spectator, Michael Gove and the Tory Party realise that a massive clear-out is on the horizon. Affecting visa 's as far back as the 1980's!
I love u so much Jordan. I look up to you a lot. I'm a suffering Canadian and you help me greatly. Been following you daily for years. Plz never ever give up! You are a phenom
Germany here: Interviews like this give me a little hope. Normal-thinking people who dare to question the green narrative are immediately placed in the far-right corner. Parties that question the narrative are to be banned. If they call politicians morons, for example, they have to fear a house search. At the same time, it has become the rule that rapist refugees are released on probation.
Fear is the mind killer ; resist as much as you can, without actually ending up in jail. If a lunatic calls you a name, who cares? Small acts of bravery will encourage the like minded.
This is the first time I've heard someone admit that cold kills more people than heat. So, maybe a little bit of warming is really not such a bad thing after all. This should be obvious to anyone over 20 years old who has ever paid attention to the realities of the world. That rules out all of the so-called greens. Few of them are over 20. Fewer have paid attention to anything beyond their dogma, and most of them wouldn't see anything obvious, even if it slapped them in the face.
It’s more about disruption of ecosystems leading to destabilization and extinction and agriculture problems (couldn’t get any berries in Canada after the 2020 heat wave) but I do happen to like warm weather myself
@@flamindigo The Sahara is greening around the edges thanks to higher CO2 levels. That's right, the biggest desert outside of Antarctica is shrinking. Where's the "climate crisis," because we're not seeing it.
Gove doesn't seem to have much between his ears. Easily led and just goes with whatever's expedient or popular in the moment. The problem is it's exactly these people that get led by the malicious actors and don't even understand let alone question what's actually going on.
I blame the DEI hires. Aviation accidents are the best illustration of this problem. DEI policies negatively affect quality and safety in all industries, but incidents in civil aviation cause the most coverage and reflection. The situation is very bad everywhere. I also see it in my workplace in Canada: the incompetence of many DEI hires is obvious. If no one checks or analyzes what they do, it often leads to disasters of varying sizes. Thank you Mr. Obama and Mr. Trudeau for this. I hope Trump in the US and PP in Canada will fix this. I will not fly until DEI departments are disbanded in all industries related to civil aviation.
As a Canadian, I don't fully blame Trudeau for doing so much damage to our country. I more blame our SJW and welfare-obsessed electorate who asked for this to happen not once, not twice, but three times.
it just amazes me how there is absolutely no risk or responsibility in being a politician. you just can’t fail. make a mess as a politician and the Spectator will reward you with a job. you people are part of the problem.
This is why I never really thought of Peterson as a true conservative in the American sense-- in his heart he still laments the fall of the moderate left that I suspect he once called home.
He's well aware the need for the adversarial system to keep each sides fringes under control. When the fringe becomes the majority, like in the case of many left wing governments in power today, that is completely destabilizing to society. Same holds true for the fringe right, although there would be way more screeching going on about that. It also emboldens the fringe right to action as a reaction to the excesses of the left. Peterson knows a return to the center by the lefties is the only time tested way out of this mess.
So? What's wrong with that? Are you 15? Clearly, you do not remember the times when moderate leftist parties were quite socially beneficial. Nations NEED two-party systems: one-party dominance, even if they start out as moderate, sensible conservatives, will pretty soon morph into something out of your nightmares. Yes, the spectre of Stalin, Mao and others is horrific, but on the other side of the ledger, don't for one moment think that another Hitler is impossible: humans are capable of repeating the worst of all mistakes.
But we are living in a post Right/Left politics. The enemies of all of us are Corporations and Communists. Trade Unions exist to protect workers rights, we've never lived in a time when workers' rights were more at threat. But we also need small business enterprises to provide employment and grow the economy. Both those things, in a healthy society, should work together. People need jobs, but the guy who creates the jobs deserves a profit for his efforts.
Gimme a break. Canada here. Vancouver Island, BC, currently, although I have lived all over this country from Goose Bay, Labrador, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta and northern BC. The UK is not cold. Instead, people are stupid enough to depend on govt to provide their heating. The English are so complacent. Govt, govt, govt. Install a wood stove. Take control of your own lives.
Now that's the Canada I know. Bring on Poilievre, he is not only good for Canada, he is good for the USA too. And the State stuff is just trolling. .Note how often Trump say's Commonsense, he is messaging Poiievre, just as Poilirvere is messaging Trump with saying he will put Canada first. Putting your country first is perhaps the most Important point in Trump's first inaugural address. Trump urged all leadership to do just that. Two equal leaders, can put together a great plan. My parents lived in Alberta for five years, I loved visiting.

@@OneLine122 A nation's GDP is largely irrelevant to the population. But GDP *per capita* is completely relevant. It more or less describes how poor a country's citizens are. A country can be wealthy itself, while its citizens are poor.
@ When over 19% of the State’s population (Mississippi) lives UNDER the National poverty level, the statistic is more than relative…particularly when the point is that Canada and Britain are worse off.
JP should have got on to the topic of Net Zero and UK agriculture and discussed how Michael Gove removed subsidies on food production through his Green Brexit
Well, Mr Peterson. You are absolutely correct. I have dual citizenship, Canadian and British. I have lived in Germany and Holland. I have as a hobby observed and analyzed personal and national traits. Having worked not only in the military but also as a home help for the now mostly departed WW2 community in Germany. I was also trained in agent use. The psychological personality disorders that identify potential agents. Are exactly the left leaning radicals that you describe and are even to the untrained eye, blatantly obvious as under informed rhetorical mouth pieces of insanity. If these personification of chaos are not reined in. Ideally, into secure mental institutions, The entire human race, as carbon-based life forms, are severely endangered.
Dr. Peterson's assessment of Justin Trudeau is not merely an opinion but factual. The problem in Canada is that the media will not publicly agree with Peterson. That's how we ended up with an idiot in charge of the country.
Gove sits quietly, now he is back to 'objective' journalism. He seems superbly efficient in adopting the persona that best suits the moment. Perhaps Jordan couod analyse that condition for us(?)
Power and control. The elites want to keep the serfs in line. Anytime a serf makes it to the elite level through hard work, they start thinking like them.
So are mountains of former wind turbine blades. It's all a problem. Spent nuclear waste is arguably the lesser evil, it can be dealt with quite handily where there is the political will.
Why would any outlet use Michael Gove as an interviewer he has the charisma of a damp lettuce leaf, although he could be an alternate solution to insomnia.
"The UK/Canada is/are poorer than the poorest state in the US". Not really, currency movements have created that illusion. Mississippi has a life expectancy nearly a decade less than Canada is a bit of a clue.
You may be right to nitpick in that way. The bigger picture is surely that the relative wealth of the UK has declined rapidly and continues to do so. Migration has depressed incomes so badly but it’s a hidden truth. And 9 million non working adults continues to knaw away at our combined wealth. And that’s before we worry about debt service. So maybe Missippee is poorer but that’s not something to celebrate
@@guybartlettofficial The relative wealth of the UK has declined slowly and the war on fossil fuels by our mentally ill politicians has not helped. Too much immigration has not helped (especially on housing - usually jobs emerge to meet the supply of workers available) but that is more of a social problem than an economic one. To avoid being depressed ask yourself the philosophical question "If the greenhouse effect is so bad why do people spend good money on greenhouses?"
@Daneiladams555 maybe. Maybe not. But JP seems to prioritise honesty in leaders and has no issues calling out leaders for their lies and bad behaviour (especially Biden) but seems to minimise Trump's character flaws. He should apply his values to all leaders.
@mattdacey4032 I've heard his analysis. He hasn't a good word to say about Biden, and condemns his short comings and dodgy dealings, rightly. But on the litany of woeful behaviours that Trump has demonstrated over the decades? He's pretty forgiving. Trump lies constantly. Any sentence with "we had the best..." "we had the greatest..." "many people say to me..." are all whoppers. And yet JP seems to forgive and forget. I want the scorn to apply to both

@ Thank you for an extensive reply. I see your point. I remember donating money to Canadian truckers. Then to my astonishment my money were confiscated by Canadian government. Now I am even afraid to travel there. What if they have a file on me and I’ll get detained as a troublemaker?
@@pawelpap9 I doubt that would happen. Our current government isn't exactly the best at checking people at the border. Lol. They regularly let in all kinds of scary people who actually shouldn't be here, because they don't check their backgrounds properly.
I don't know if that makes you feel better or worse about coming here! 😄
@@jodibraun6383 That is correct. It is why Canada can't exist without American (or other) investment. It's why Canada will never be able to sustain itself as a nation, and why uniting with the USA is the only winning choice.
We're too polite and too high.
Is that Gove? My trauma is being triggered by the visual reminder of the ultra and comprehensive betrayal enacted by the “Conservatives”
Yes, Gove is the new editor of The Spectator.
As an American conservative I can't process how Boris and the Tories betrayed conservative principles and became open borders and climate change idiots.
How can Gove sit there and pretend he had nothing to do with this?!😮
No, they've come through the gates.
But but but, they said they'd behave themselves if they got let in!
@@thecustodian1023& you believed them?
@@daniellecoh But but but, they were really nice about it! They said they'd baby sit and educate my kids and help run my government too!
@@thecustodian1023 Gemini said that is not true. LOL
Michael Gove and a lot of his palls need to be in prison.

The European Union leaders and politicians have failed to act upon the concerns of European people in relation to allowing uncontrolled migration of people to the EU causing issues. Its a situation caused by mismanagement and failures of the EU governments. What do you expect.
We just called r-cists and still when things got worse, the governments igored it.

What a treat! Thank you for inviting Dr. Peterson ❤ The greatest thinker of our times ❤ It is always a pleasure to hear this giant speak ❤
In the uk we have been shafted by the green apocalypse endlessly.
Jordan Peterson's clarity on the problems in Canada requires urgent attention. I propose Jordan be offered a role in the new Conservative government as Minister of Education or Minister of Reforms to get this train back on the track. Of course, the woke left-wing nutbars would never understand, too bad.
Well,,, i do not agree with you,,, Jordan Peterson use to speak decent,,, but lately he has turned to a far right activist, anything on the extremes (left or right) is very bad for this world, he s even gived a voice to Nethanyahu to justify his genocide in Gaza,,,i lost all trust in this man
10 minutes of balls to the wall common sense and brilliance
We see through you Gove . Talking to sensible people will not redeem you.
Remember how Gove lauded that eco-fanatical goblin from Sweden, claiming she was some sort of guru when, in reality, she was a school refuser who was manipulated by her parents and other Lefties? Gove was part of the problem in many ways.
I do hope that the Spectator, Michael Gove and the Tory Party realise that a massive clear-out is on the horizon. Affecting visa 's as far back as the 1980's!
"... a juvenile narcissist for ten years",
Amen.
I love u so much Jordan. I look up to you a lot. I'm a suffering Canadian and you help me greatly. Been following you daily for years. Plz never ever give up! You are a phenom
@@skylovecraft2491 he is wonderful to listen to. Victor Davis Hanson also.
Germany here: Interviews like this give me a little hope.
Normal-thinking people who dare to question the green narrative are immediately placed in the far-right corner. Parties that question the narrative are to be banned. If they call politicians morons, for example, they have to fear a house search. At the same time, it has become the rule that rapist refugees are released on probation.
Fear is the mind killer ; resist as much as you can, without actually ending up in jail. If a lunatic calls you a name, who cares? Small acts of bravery will encourage the like minded.
Please vote accordingly. Americans are watching to see if AfD gets the support it should. I know it gets much hatred from leftists.
Jordan at his best, again!
always incredible to hear what Jordan Peterson has to say about the world!
I live in a border state and saw what happened during covid. My eyes wide open now. Canada is a completely different country that I thought it was.
Watched for Peterson, fast forward through Gove
This is the first time I've heard someone admit that cold kills more people than heat. So, maybe a little bit of warming is really not such a bad thing after all. This should be obvious to anyone over 20 years old who has ever paid attention to the realities of the world. That rules out all of the so-called greens. Few of them are over 20. Fewer have paid attention to anything beyond their dogma, and most of them wouldn't see anything obvious, even if it slapped them in the face.
It’s more about disruption of ecosystems leading to destabilization and extinction and agriculture problems (couldn’t get any berries in Canada after the 2020 heat wave) but I do happen to like warm weather myself
@@flamindigo The Sahara is greening around the edges thanks to higher CO2 levels. That's right, the biggest desert outside of Antarctica is shrinking. Where's the "climate crisis," because we're not seeing it.
One can almost hear Grove’s gear wheels spinning from what Jordan’s saying. Shame non of those gears properly mesh with one an' other.
Gove doesn't seem to have much between his ears. Easily led and just goes with whatever's expedient or popular in the moment. The problem is it's exactly these people that get led by the malicious actors and don't even understand let alone question what's actually going on.
The Right is right. Amen 🙏.
I blame the DEI hires. Aviation accidents are the best illustration of this problem. DEI policies negatively affect quality and safety in all industries, but incidents in civil aviation cause the most coverage and reflection. The situation is very bad everywhere. I also see it in my workplace in Canada: the incompetence of many DEI hires is obvious. If no one checks or analyzes what they do, it often leads to disasters of varying sizes. Thank you Mr. Obama and Mr. Trudeau for this. I hope Trump in the US and PP in Canada will fix this. I will not fly until DEI departments are disbanded in all industries related to civil aviation.
As a Canadian, I don't fully blame Trudeau for doing so much damage to our country. I more blame our SJW and welfare-obsessed electorate who asked for this to happen not once, not twice, but three times.
The defining teat for insanity is the question, "What is a woman?" If you don't know, you are insane.
@@WalterHildahl my favourite question for them is ‘Islam or women’s rights?’
Because you can’t have both.
it just amazes me how there is absolutely no risk or responsibility in being a politician. you just can’t fail. make a mess as a politician and the Spectator will reward you with a job. you people are part of the problem.
Rome and many European Cities went through this during their history. The people resolved the problem.
This whole climate thing is the new Y2K. It needs to go today.
Thank you so much for this talk with Jordan Peterson ❤
This is why I never really thought of Peterson as a true conservative in the American sense-- in his heart he still laments the fall of the moderate left that I suspect he once called home.
What elements of the left he adheres to?
He has said as much.
He's well aware the need for the adversarial system to keep each sides fringes under control. When the fringe becomes the majority, like in the case of many left wing governments in power today, that is completely destabilizing to society. Same holds true for the fringe right, although there would be way more screeching going on about that. It also emboldens the fringe right to action as a reaction to the excesses of the left. Peterson knows a return to the center by the lefties is the only time tested way out of this mess.
So? What's wrong with that? Are you 15? Clearly, you do not remember the times when moderate leftist parties were quite socially beneficial. Nations NEED two-party systems: one-party dominance, even if they start out as moderate, sensible conservatives, will pretty soon morph into something out of your nightmares. Yes, the spectre of Stalin, Mao and others is horrific, but on the other side of the ledger, don't for one moment think that another Hitler is impossible: humans are capable of repeating the worst of all mistakes.
But we are living in a post Right/Left politics. The enemies of all of us are Corporations and Communists.
Trade Unions exist to protect workers rights, we've never lived in a time when workers' rights were more at threat. But we also need small business enterprises to provide employment and grow the economy. Both those things, in a healthy society, should work together. People need jobs, but the guy who creates the jobs deserves a profit for his efforts.
Bravo
Gimme a break. Canada here. Vancouver Island, BC, currently, although I have lived all over this country from Goose Bay, Labrador, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta and northern BC. The UK is not cold. Instead, people are stupid enough to depend on govt to provide their heating. The English are so complacent. Govt, govt, govt. Install a wood stove. Take control of your own lives.
They are now banned in a lot of areas.
Now that's the Canada I know. Bring on Poilievre, he is not only good for Canada, he is good for the USA too. And the State stuff is just trolling. .Note how often Trump say's Commonsense, he is messaging Poiievre, just as Poilirvere is messaging Trump with saying he will put Canada first. Putting your country first is perhaps the most Important point in Trump's first inaugural address. Trump urged all leadership to do just that. Two equal leaders, can put together a great plan. My parents lived in Alberta for five years, I loved visiting.
In my own New York State, Gov. Hochul and the Dems in the State houses want to BAN the burning of the renewable, essentially no sulfur, abundant fuel--wood.
yes put wood stove in london and you gonna a pretty nasty smog during winter , and were the fck you gonna find wood in uk for wood stove ? forest have been cut down almost everywhere come on dude we are not all living in the wood like you
I’d be interested to hear more about the future of universities in Canada especially from the conservative government in Canada!
Peterson’s statement (04:50) that Canadian and British per capita GDP being lower than the lowest of all the States in America was stunning.
But wrong. It also does not matter, GDP is irrelevant to the average person.
@@OneLine122 A nation's GDP is largely irrelevant to the population. But GDP *per capita* is completely relevant. It more or less describes how poor a country's citizens are. A country can be wealthy itself, while its citizens are poor.
@ When over 19% of the State’s population (Mississippi) lives UNDER the National poverty level, the statistic is more than relative…particularly when the point is that Canada and Britain are worse off.
@@OneLine122 yup. The chap that came up with the concept said it should never be used to measure success
Jordan is right on every word
JBP on fire 🔥 as usual. Much love ❤ south africa
Always learn from Mr. Peterson. Thank you once again!
Pinnacle of confusion!Jordan Peterson nails it.
Preach on brother Jordan!
I can not watch this as Gove is involved.
You missed out then. Peterson was great as usual.
Thankfully, Gove is not in it for long, but I understand the sentiment. JPs views on Europe are spot on.
You can not watch for Peterson?
The joy here is in knowing that Peterson just deconstructed everything Give believes in.
I can hardly bring myself to read the Spectator because Michael Gove is involved.
Entertaining and informative beyond what I expected. Great job!
JP should have got on to the topic of Net Zero and UK agriculture and discussed how Michael Gove removed subsidies on food production through his Green Brexit
Facts!!!
Well, Mr Peterson. You are absolutely correct. I have dual citizenship, Canadian and British. I have lived in Germany and Holland. I have as a hobby observed and analyzed personal and national traits. Having worked not only in the military but also as a home help for the now mostly departed WW2 community in Germany. I was also trained in agent use. The psychological personality disorders that identify potential agents. Are exactly the left leaning radicals that you describe and are even to the untrained eye, blatantly obvious as under informed rhetorical mouth pieces of insanity. If these personification of chaos are not reined in. Ideally, into secure mental institutions, The entire human race, as carbon-based life forms, are severely endangered.
Trudeau has to go! The guy is the worst PM ever.
"For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work."
Socialism is desire for a cushy government job at taxpayer expense. Communism is where all jobs are government jobs.
Plain speaking Peterson is so cool.
Thanks for this interview. Love listening to the common sense and intelligence of Jordan Peterson.😊
Dr. Peterson's assessment of Justin Trudeau is not merely an opinion but factual. The problem in Canada is that the media will not publicly agree with Peterson. That's how we ended
up with an idiot in charge of the country.
The problems are structural. You’re not going to get affordable housing and stronger salaries because 2 million low income workers are deported.
Gove sits quietly, now he is back to 'objective' journalism.
He seems superbly efficient in adopting the persona that best suits the moment.
Perhaps Jordan couod analyse that condition for us(?)
System works best with an equally balanced center left and right, and very weak extreams of each side
It's so awful the world that has arisen.
Jordan speaks the truth!
I don't trust or believe anything Gove does or says.
Mindless leftism has led to tragic outcomes in our Country, especially to innocent children and youth.
Power and control. The elites want to keep the serfs in line. Anytime a serf makes it to the elite level through hard work, they start thinking like them.
LOVE Jordan Peterson! I hope that he doesn't leave Canada! We need him!
I think he already has.
Jordan you have lost your teeth i can tell by your lisp. It happens to the best of us. I still think your the greatest man alive.
Camera angle?
Nuclear waste - spent fuel - is a problem.
So are mountains of former wind turbine blades. It's all a problem. Spent nuclear waste is arguably the lesser evil, it can be dealt with quite handily where there is the political will.
@@boostar155 Tell that to the US and the Yucca Mountain folks.
Y'all want magic free energy like in Star Trek.
@@williambranch4283 No, we'all want to recognize both the benefits and the risks of nuclear power, sir.
Why would any outlet use Michael Gove as an interviewer he has the charisma of a damp lettuce leaf, although he could be an alternate solution to insomnia.
Michael Gove is the chief editor of The Spectator. That's a clue.
Jordan Peterson is brilliant
Barbarians? No. They’re from Alberta.
In Germany, the Bavarians are at the gate.
Who else needs a dictionary when listening to Jordan Peterson?
Remember the Readers Digest "Improve your Word Power"?
You can't ask these people to leave voluntarily.
'No imagination for evil' wonderful phrase.
Keep giving corrupt Canadian bureaucrats heck, Jordan! Canada can be saved.
Gove was kowtowing to the Green Goblin.....Greta Thunberg...
well, the gove did Create her, you can hardly blame her for existing. people allowed the state to take their kids and lost them.
Join Reform Gove.
At the gates!!! They are inside the gates!
Autocrats and Oligarchs tend to not improve things.
"The UK/Canada is/are poorer than the poorest state in the US". Not really, currency movements have created that illusion. Mississippi has a life expectancy nearly a decade less than Canada is a bit of a clue.
Yes, really. Stay on point.
Not comparable metrics over the short term
You may be right to nitpick in that way. The bigger picture is surely that the relative wealth of the UK has declined rapidly and continues to do so. Migration has depressed incomes so badly but it’s a hidden truth. And 9 million non working adults continues to knaw away at our combined wealth. And that’s before we worry about debt service. So maybe Missippee is poorer but that’s not something to celebrate
@@guybartlettofficial The relative wealth of the UK has declined slowly and the war on fossil fuels by our mentally ill politicians has not helped. Too much immigration has not helped (especially on housing - usually jobs emerge to meet the supply of workers available) but that is more of a social problem than an economic one. To avoid being depressed ask yourself the philosophical question "If the greenhouse effect is so bad why do people spend good money on greenhouses?"
Why doesn’t China build dozens of their own nuclear facilities?
Europe was lost the moment the E. U. came into existence.
Gove sitting there looking like a guilty melted wax version of himself after being told some troubling home truths.
I agree with Dr Jordan Peterson. ❤
A heat wave for GB is what most Americans consider pleasant.
I cant understand how JP can have such clarity of thought about some leader's shortcomings but have no concerns about Trump's personality
It’s better then any other choice right now
@@olifisher4182 He has spent hundreds of hours addressing that, particularly from a clinical psychology POV
@Daneiladams555 maybe. Maybe not. But JP seems to prioritise honesty in leaders and has no issues calling out leaders for their lies and bad behaviour (especially Biden) but seems to minimise Trump's character flaws. He should apply his values to all leaders.
@mattdacey4032 I've heard his analysis. He hasn't a good word to say about Biden, and condemns his short comings and dodgy dealings, rightly. But on the litany of woeful behaviours that Trump has demonstrated over the decades? He's pretty forgiving. Trump lies constantly. Any sentence with "we had the best..." "we had the greatest..." "many people say to me..." are all whoppers. And yet JP seems to forgive and forget. I want the scorn to apply to both
@@olifisher4182 Trump is surrounded by really good people right now, I am hoping for the best
Well said yes the barbarians are here
Bad audio on Jordan’s end. Needs acoustic damping in that wood room
8:33 never understood this, probably never will - it just doesn't make sense. A great point by Jordan.
I have been following the state of affairs in the UK because I am concerned about some of their more progressive ideas coming to Canada. The UK is scary right now for free speech and individual liberty. All in the name of safety and politeness.
4:47 "The richest province in Canada is now, by per capita GDP, poorer than the poorest state in the United States - that's also true for the UK btw".
Dr. Pederson would not agree to point some groups as barbaric but rather there is barbaric in each human.
I'm proud to be what some people here consider woke, rather than on the right and far right and far far extreme right.
What the hell was the Spectator doing appointing Gove as editor.
