[Speaker 1] (0:01 - 1:59) The tariff war. Inflation so out of control that food prices have already risen 7% since the beginning of this year alone. The Bank of Canada announcing that come March 1st, there will likely be a lending rate hike in excess of 1%.   And a looming election, which if won by the Liberals, will ensconce Mark Carney as Prime Minister for the next four years. A man who is already working to sell out Canada to the globalist cabal. Europe gearing up for war in Ukraine, and China interfering in Canadian affairs.   Meanwhile, the BRICS nations continue to expand and pursue their goal of a currency that is independent of the US dollar. While central banks around the world buy massive amounts of gold. Purchases that are measured in thousands of tons.   What do they know that we don't? Even during the lockdowns, we did not face this level of economic uncertainty. How then do we protect ourselves and prepare for all possible futures?   I'm joined today by my team of financial experts for our first quarter update of 2025. Adrian Spitters, a personal financial consultant who correctly predicted both the dot-com crash and the stock market crash of 2008. Bryce Wade, who specializes in the big picture, both globally and here in Canada.   And Warren Keene of New World Precious Metals. Together they will lay out our possible futures, and very few of them turn out well for Canadians. But as always, there are options for those who see what is coming, and have the foresight to prepare.   Bryce, Warren, Adrian, welcome back to the show.   [Speaker 2] (2:00 - 2:02) Always a pleasure, man. Thank you for having us back.   [Speaker 1] (2:04 - 2:17) Absolutely. Boy, do we have a lot of things to talk about with what's going on right now. So I'm going to let Bryce, you're the big picture guy.   I'm going to let you start out with a summary for everybody, and then we'll move on from there.   [Speaker 2] (2:18 - 6:28) Cool. So recently I've been talking to a whole bunch of people about kind of the things that are happening in the world, right? And it made me remember when I was back in high school.   So we're talking almost 20 years ago now. And my ninth grade teacher told me a story about when he was in high school or just after high school, when he went to the bar, right? So he went to the bar and he was slapped down two quarters, 50 cents, and get two beers and have 10 cents for a tip, right?   So two beers for 40 cents, and you could drink like that all night, right? When I was in high school, when I got out of high school, right, the price of beer was basically, you know, six to eight bucks for some cheap beer. So basically like a dollar something per beer.   And if you went to a bar or something, it was like four or five bucks, right? Yesterday, I went to a networking event. It was $10.50 for one beer, right?   And the amount of increases in the price of the stuff that we buy on a daily basis has skyrocketed. That's not just inflation. That's the decline of the value of our money, right?   And the reason I'm telling everybody about this is everybody has to really understand this, right? We think of everything in terms of dollars and the currency that we use on a daily basis. So when we see small incremental increases in the prices, we don't really notice it.   But when you're used to something costing whatever the price is, and then it's double or triple. From even four years ago, some of the stuff that we buy on a daily basis has doubled in value or doubled in price, right? And that speaks to the real decline in our purchasing power, right?   So what I want to talk about today and what we're here to talk about today and kind of update everybody in is what's happening and why, right? We've seen a massive increase in the budgets of the Western nations. We've seen massive escalations in war across the world.   And the really important point that we're talking about today is why is gold and why is silver skyrocketing, right? Gold hit $3,000 an ounce last week. And that was kind of a ceiling, a mental ceiling for a lot of people, right?   And we've been doing this for over a year now. When we started doing this, gold was $2,200, $4,300, something like that. So even in the time that we've been doing this, gold has skyrocketed in value.   If you had invested in gold when we started talking about this, you'd be up almost 50%, almost, right? So last year, gold did 35%, 37% roughly, and silver did about the same. And just this year, so we're in March right now, almost into April.   We're already up 15% on the year, right? So the scale and the speed of what's happening in the world is increasing, right? And the people that run the world and whatever are not doing it for our benefit.   They're doing it for theirs. And so what we want to talk about today is what's happening, how does this matter to you, and how can you do something about this? Because I'm always the person that says there is a problem, we need to do something about it, what are we going to do, and where do we want to go, right?   So what we're going to talk about today is, for me anyway, is the geopolitics of what's happening around the world, the politics in Canada of how it's affecting us, and ultimately the financial position that we're being put in because of some of these policies. So Adrian's going to cover a good portion of what's happening in Canada with Mark Carney and the threat that he is to our state. And then Warren's going to cover a couple of the technicals of gold and where we are and how it's happening.   So this is kind of the underpinning of what's happening in the world because gold has a very specific and very important position in the global economy where it is the baseline for all prices, because we used to measure everything in gold, right? And because we've switched into the U.S. dollar system in 1945, Bretton Woods won, now we think of everything in U.S. dollars, right? And so if that system is coming to an end or being switched into something else or being changed in some sort of way, gold is going to have a very important piece in that next era of economics, if you will, and we're here to talk about it today.   So that's kind of the stage of what we're talking about today.   [Speaker 1] (6:29 - 13:26) Excellent. All right. So Warren, $3,000 an ounce gold.   What's going on? I just start with silver. We're very bullish on silver.   We all say we love silver. We love gold, but we love silver even more. So last year we saw a 23% increase in silver prices.   And this year we see 17.24 there already. So both gold and silver are really on the run. Here's the summary of gold last year at price.   27% increase last year. And this year, similar to silver, we're up 16%. Silver is down today.   But overall, this is the trend. And it's sort of starting to correlate with the stock market. We've seen some hits in the stock market lately.   It's come down a bit. And gold and silver are remaining steady and increasing. There's all kinds of projections that we could make.   But just the last couple of years, this is what we have. We have this bullish momentum. Let me now show you some, let's see what the central banks are doing.   So do you see, do I have the screen up there now? Okay, so we have the information from the central banks. So these are the biggest financial entities on the planet.   They've been net buyers of gold since 2010. The last three years, we saw record amounts, record amounts of gold. And you know, it is very, it's similar to, I guess, why we're talking today.   We all have major concerns about the economy and specifically the viability of the fiat system. And same with central banks. They're just really huge entities.   And they're really like the architects of the financial system in some ways, of the world system. And they are buying record amounts. So there's the headline right there.   This is three years in a row where they bought over a thousand tons. Right? So I always say, when I see this, it always reminds me of that saying, don't do what they say, watch what they do.   And so this is, you know, the question becomes, if that's what, if they are the biggest financial entities on the planet, and this is what they're doing, the question becomes to you and I, why are we doing the same, right? Why are we getting some gold and silver to protect our wealth? The central banks do not buy silver as a rule, although some central banks, Russia in particular has started to, well, publicly tell the world they're accumulating silver in that as well.   I read something about China the other day that they are starting to bring in other metals as a reserve with their central bank. But for the main, the main thing is that they're, they're producing gold and silver, sorry, gold. So let's look at another, another central bank, just to finish that off is, so this is the new, this is for 2005.   And basically they're still buying. There's some statistics here, 18 tons at the start of 2005. So that's, and that has really been affecting the price, right?   Of course, because when the central banks are buying this much gold, it, it, it, it helps keep that price rising in the market. Here's something that may be of interest to the viewers too. So this is South Korea.   And I bring this up because in, in North America, we still don't see a big retail market. As we say in the business, the retailers still is not awake yet. We're not, we only, we don't purchase that much gold bars and coins here in North America, but in Asia, it's the opposite.   In fact, in China, the government's telling their citizens to buy gold and silver. Now this is a headline of Korea. So what happened with Korea is they first, they, they, the government stepped in and suspended the sale of gold bars and coins.   They were having problems with raw product to create the bars and coins. And so before they ran out, they put a halt. Well, then the public went right into silver.   And that created a mini frenzy. They bought tons of silver. And so the government, government stepped in and halted sales of silver.   So it's just giving you an idea of what's happening around the globe where that trend of Asia, we're not even talking about the BRICS countries yet because they keep, you know, they're, they have been net buyers of gold as well. But just in general, in that, in Asia, people value gold more. The average citizen values gold and purchases more gold.   In fact, I've heard a statistic the other day, which was, was in India, up to 18% of their wealth is held in physical precious metals, where in Canada, North America, it's maybe 1% of us own physical precious metals. So that's what's happening over the world. And now I'm going to just set up maybe a couple of things I'd like to talk about further on today.   And one is gold revaluation. So you might've heard of that where we're going to take the price of gold, a big entity, such as the United States, perhaps the Chinese government, perhaps the central banks and just revalue gold a lot higher. And then I also want to talk about paper gold versus physical, there's been lots of headlines.   And then a little bit about Fort Knox. And what's going on there as we're trying to figure out how much gold is really in Fort Knox. So I'll bring those up after, and maybe now I'll turn it over to.   All right. So Adrian, wow. Of course, just last week, Mark Carney became prime minister and there's already signs that he is out to screw us over even worse than Trudeau did.   And unfortunately he's got the financial know-how to do it. What's your view on this?   [Speaker 3] (13:26 - 14:22) I think Mark Carney has been groomed to become the liquidator of Canada. There's certainly trends in what's happening and I might want to start with the BIS and actually Trudeau senior and just set the stage for the path of destruction for our country. Our problem has really started with the bank of Canada and its ties to the BIS.   Since 1974, Canada's monetary system or monetary policy was aligned with the BIS. So we are now tied to the BIS and Canada, I believe, has roughly one point, sorry, where's the number? 500 million dollars of BIS shares.   And so we are in bed with the BIS.   [Speaker 2] (14:24 - 14:36) And just for anybody that doesn't know, the BIS, Bank of International Settlements, is the central bank of central banks that dictates policy to all central banks in the world, which there's only three countries on the planet that doesn't have one.   [Speaker 1] (14:38 - 14:43) So they work, the Bank of International Settlements, it's under the IMF and the World Bank, right?   [Speaker 3] (14:44 - 14:48) It is the bank, it's the bank of all bankers. It's the bank that the banks fall on.   [Speaker 1] (14:48 - 14:56) And just to clarify something, Adrian, a moment ago you said Canada has 500 million or 500 billion?   [Speaker 3] (14:56 - 26:52) Billion. One second. Billion.   No, sorry, 500 million in BIS shares right now, according to the article that I found this in. So 500 million, so it's not a huge amount, but they are shareholders, right? So, but then I found this interesting.   There was a video that was going on social media about Canada and liquidation. I couldn't verify that it's in trusteeship or probate per se, but definitely the trend is there. If you look at what's been happening since, specifically since Trudeau Jr. came into power, he's been selling off all resources to China. So a lot of our infrastructure is being sold to foreign interests, specifically China. Massive debt accumulation to the point where we're going to potentially default on our debt. As a result, our Canadian dollar is losing value and that's why they're pushing for digital currency so that we can be controlled by, and the bigger push for digital currency is from basically the BIS and the WEF.   But it looks like the plan might be to indebt Canada to a point where we need a bailout from BIS or the IMF and all our resources wind up in the hands of foreigners and we lose total control. So it looks like Cardi is the one that's being brought in to do that. Yes.   And we'll talk more about that later, but you continue for now. Yeah. Okay.   So here's another interesting about the tariffs. If you look at what's going on right now with AI, a lot of companies don't need employees anymore. They are, for example, the auto industry can basically build cars with a lot less people.   And for auto manufacturers to continue or to lay these people off, there's big severance packages. What better way to switch over to manufacturing with robotics and less people is to have trade wars where the unions can't step in and protect the workers. The unions are part of the WEF.   They're on board with the WEF agenda. So the trade war is a perfect excuse to retool the whole auto industry. So that's an issue.   And other industries are having the same issues. It's a matter of, okay, what can be produced with less labor, more robotics? How do we get rid of people?   And that's the main reason why UBI is being brought in because what are these people going to do? They can't get retrained. A lot of them don't have the skill sets to create opportunities for themselves and jobs are going to be scarce.   So that's the real push for the UBI. The other thing with the liquor stores, according to this one author that I was following, was saying that we are being brought or being changed into more of a East Asian market where alcohol is not something that is, or alcohol is frowned upon. And the Muslim community, for example.   So there's going to be less need for alcohol. And, you know, there was talk years ago or even more recently that Sharia law is going to be brought into Canada. That could be possible.   And that could be behind why they're taking alcohol off the shelves. Why alcohol? Why not other products?   It's primarily that. So there are a lot of things happening right now that are tied to AI, job losses, et cetera. Now, going to the Carney here, his role with the WEF, he has globalist ties.   Mark has financial dealings and his lack of transparency with Brookfield Asset Management. There's been recent controversy where he just moved headquarters just before the Trump tariffs came in. He moved the headquarters of Brookfield Asset Management to the United States.   He's all about net zero. He's the guy who created net zero. And yet his company buys oil and gas, coal, infrastructure.   So while he's preaching that Canada needs to go on to green energy, his company or the company that he chaired is all about the raw materials that we're no longer able to produce in Canada or is being shut down because of the green energy policies. So by doing that, he's also weakening Canada's trade. He's defying the Trump tariffs.   Trump is saying that the tariffs are there because of the fentanyl crisis, but it's really about, how do I say it? Trump is using that as an excuse. The real excuse is we have high tariffs in Canada on certain goods that he wants to eliminate.   Market share quota, wants to eliminate on the wood tariffs, et cetera. And again, Carney is also behind the CBDCs because he's on the board with the BIS and the BIS is pushing CBDCs. So that's Carney's role with...   And now here's something that's been more about Carney's background. In 2008, he was with Goldman Sachs at the time and Carney was involved in the toxic mortgage-backed securities. He led the financial meltdown devastating millions of people.   Then with the Bank of Canada, when he was governor, he was responsible for the ultra low interest rates, fueling rampant real estate speculation, driving home prices to unsustainable levels. That was his policy. Secret bailouts.   This is about the gold. Back in... I can't remember.   I don't have the date here. But he quietly filed about $114 billion worth of Canadian... a billion to Canadian banks.   Sorry, about $114 billion to Canadian banks on the bailouts and then shuffled all that gold to the cold reserves to England. So Canada no longer has gold reserves and so we have no backup. He is tied to companies.   He has allegiances to the Financial Stability Board. He shielded banks like the HSBC from prostitution and basically any corporation that has done bad things, Carney has been instrumental in making those things go away. And he's the big guy for net zero.   And here, net zero is one of the goals that is almost impossible to achieve. It basically shuts down the whole economy. And that goal is still in place to be put in place by 2015.   It requires dismantling of the banking or banning of key materials, restricting energy use, leading to economic collapse, mass unemployment, lower living standards. He's responsible for carbon capture, which is an extremely expensive technology that doesn't really do the job. For example, in Canada, we have the boreal forest that more than compensates for any carbon footprint that we create.   He is forcing, well, in Canada now and the U.S., banks are now bailing from it, but he was forcing banks to take on the net zero policies and then, through the banking system, forcing the banks to force their borrowers, their clients, from embracing net zero policies. So he was trying to use the banks as the enforcer. But just recently, the banks are bailing from it in Canada and the U.S., I believe, in Europe as well. I didn't get a date for the gold self, but there was $114 billion. 2015. Was it 2015?   It'll be more in a year. As governor of the Bank of Canada, he was responsible for enabling the housing crisis. He was behind it, the secret bail, or the bailouts of the banks.   And then, oh, here it is. It's all sold off by 2015 when Trudeau came in. Yeah, yeah.   So he was behind that. As the governor of the Bank of England, he was responsible for the Brexit misinformation. He was doom and gloom about leaving the EU.   It was bad for Britain. He was responsible for maintaining low interest rates for years, causing inflation and devaluing the British pound. And then the gold manipulation.   Again, he was behind that. He's actually a director on the board of the Bank of International Settlements. And that's where he gave immunity to the HSBC.   He's also Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance. He took on that role. That's where he came up with net zero, which is basically to green the world.   At the end of the day, it's him and all the companies that are involved in the green energy that are profiting from him destroying the carbon footprints. And now, as prime minister, he's behind the trade wars. He's been advising Trudeau throughout his prime ministership.   So even though you can blame Trudeau, it was on Carney's advice that Trudeau did things. So he was setting Trudeau up for him to come in and put the nail in the coffin from everything I've been looking at. So he's been involved in a lot of different things that has led to Canada being where it is today.   And it's not just Canada. Other countries are following the whole net zero agenda. All the agendas that Carney's been behind.   But the big thing is that he's going to take Canada now with all the policies that he's been putting in place. We're going to go bankrupt.   [Speaker 1] (26:53 - 27:00) Yes. And as I said, we're going to discuss a little bit more of that later. All right.   So, Bryce, that brings us back to you.   [Speaker 2] (27:01 - 28:30) Yeah. Yeah. Everybody loves my rays of sunshine.   So the big thing that we're facing, so how I want to frame this for everybody is think of everything that we talk about in two ways. How are you exposed to this or how exposed are you to all of this? And then how are you protected from any of this?   Right. And the big things that we're dealing with in the world right now is the reorganization of the economy by these BIS and WEF clowns. And the war that we're facing in the geostrategic arena.   And then ultimately, the politics of our country ourselves. So Adrian just kind of overviewed how Mark Carney, Mark's commie as I call him, is really taking a hammer and sickle to our economy in various different ways. Net zero is the idea that we're going to reduce all of our emissions without any replacement.   They're just like, hey, we're just going to stop the economy. It's just such an insane thing to even think about and say, if you think about it out loud, OK, so our economy runs on fossil fuels. What are we going to do?   Stop using fossil fuels? What are we going to replace it with? Wind and solar where it only shines half the time and sometimes it's windy.   It's so ridiculous on so many levels. If you have even an iota of pushback on any of these ideas, right? And so the big thing.   Yeah, Adrian.   [Speaker 3] (28:31 - 28:36) Did you guys ever see that chart? The net zero chart. The 2050 net zero chart.   You want me to pull it up?   [Speaker 2] (28:36 - 35:35) Yeah, I'll pull it up in a sec. So the thing that the reason I'm framing it in this way, right, is that we are being stolen from. Trudeau has stolen inordinate amounts of money from us, right?   And the amount of corruption and scandals that have been exposed, there's been literally zero happened with that, right? So what's happening this year, 2025, is all of the problems that we've been overviewing and talking about for the last year or so are coming to a head this year. So, you know, way back when I can't even remember which show it was, but we talked about the commercial real estate bubble.   That is going to pop this year, right? Because there's like two and a half trillion dollars in the US alone that needs to be refinanced this year. And the interest rates are much higher than they were previously.   And real estate is going down anyway, right? Commercial real estate. And the big problem that we're facing is not only all of these other problems, but the economy itself and the structure of the economy itself is being reorganized.   Now, what do I mean by that, right? So what happened in 2020 is that everybody realized that there was now only two types of jobs. There was a job that you have to physically be there to do and everything else, right?   And what everything else meant is that now you are not competing with just the people in your local geographic zone, city, whatever. You're now competing with not only everybody in your country, but everybody in the planet that does that job. And if you're competing with somebody in India or China or Philippines or something like that, and they can do it at the fraction of the cost, well, a global company will be like, well, why am I paying you in Canada when I can get it for a tenth the price in the other side of the planet, right?   And so this reorganization of the economy has really hit a lot of people, right? The amount of immigration that we have in the West, in Canada specifically, we've imported 5 million people in the last four years. That is insane on a whole bunch of levels.   But if you think of it just from a raw numbers point of view, how many homes do we build? Why do we have more people coming than we have homes being built? That's ridiculous to begin with, right?   But the more important factor is how many jobs are being created or jobs being created and how many people are coming to build them, right? If we already have a decline in the amount of businesses that are open, we have an increase in the amount of people coming. That's a mathematical absurdity, right?   So there's a reason for this. There's a purpose for this, right? And, you know, Adrienne overviewed it a little bit, but I'm going to expand on it a little bit because I think this bears repeating and showing that there's a group called the Century Initiative, right?   Century Initiative that basically won 100 million people in Canada by 2100. Now that's a long way away, but we already see the amount of people that are coming into Canada massively increased. And one of the underlying problems here that they're going to try and make an excuse for is our birth rates across the whole world, but Canada as well, have absolutely cratered.   So the minimum birth rate for a civilization to keep itself alive is 2.1. 2.1 children per couple. That means that one person gets replaced and the other person gets replaced. That's two children, right?   If you have lower than that, that means that over generations your population decreases. And this is where I'm going with this is that our entire economic model for all of human history has been one of growth. Hey, we got more people to sell to.   We got more people to make stuff. We got more people to think about stuff. We got more people to do transactions in the economy.   So growth happens. Our entire life, and that of all of human history, except for some times of war and famine and disease, has always been increasing because the majority of people lived on a farm, and you needed more hands to be on a farm, so you had more children. Because not only was it hard to have children that survived the long time, but there was a need for the economy to do so, right?   But now this is changing in a very, very important way, and this is completely different from all other times in history in that AI and robotics basically replace labor in a whole bunch of different areas of the economy, right? There's never been a time in history where you could completely remove human hands, human ingenuity, and human thought processes from the production of a material or a deployment of a service or a structure. There's never been a time when somebody could push a button and a whole bunch of stuff happened without human hands having to do it, right?   So this is a completely new thing in the economy, and this is the real threat that we're talking about, right? Gold and silver has always been an intermediary for value, right? And the ability to do a transaction, the ability to say, hey, I've worked all of this time, you need to give me something so that I can go and get the resources or the services that I need to survive and live, that's always been there, right?   But now, because they are reorganizing or resetting our economy into something new, this is now a threat to how we live our life. Because if you don't have people producing something and earning money in some capacity to be able to consume products and services, how does this economy and how does this economic model work? And this is where I think this is going, is that they are trying to put us in a position where we are unnecessary, that we're not required anymore, humans not required.   There's a video that was made like 10, 15 years ago that kind of goes into that. But the point that I'm making here, and I'll end on this, is that there is a massive change to how our civilization operates happening as we sit here today, right? Gold and silver is not the solution to this.   Reorganizing and collaboration with the people in your community is, because we are a civilization of people. That's what a civilization is. It's people and how you operate and collaborate.   That's what you get out of that civilization, right? So for us to be able to fight back against this, if you will, it is requiring two things, organization and mobilization. And so what we talk about is kind of the financial underpinning and the geostrategic kind of situation that we live in.   But ultimately, the thing that we need to think about as a group and as a society and as a civilization is, how are we going to work together? How are we going to live together? How do we want to live together?   That's the big question that underpins all of the stuff that we talk about today, because there's a group of people on the planet that think that we shouldn't have the option, that we shouldn't have the vote, we shouldn't have the opportunity at all to self-determine where we live, what we do, what we use our money on, or have money at all. That's what central bank digital currencies are for, is removing that ability to do that. And so we're here today to talk about, you know, hey, this stuff is happening today.   So I hope that what we talk about today elicits the response of people, A, going and looking at your financial position and what you're exposed to, because the economy is turning right now. And secondly, but how am I going to survive with me and my family in my community? So I'll end on that.   [Speaker 1] (35:36 - 39:04) All right. Thank you, gentlemen. So now we've established a baseline, and I know for the viewers, 45 minutes just to establish a baseline, but this is very deep stuff that we're getting into today.   Gentlemen, Adrian was talking about the things that Trudeau has done that Carney is doing. Now, I did an interview very recently with Brett Olin, the CEO of Bow Valley Credit Union. He's a banker.   He's an ethical banker. He understands what's going on. And he explained the real reason for the tariffs and how Carney is selling us out.   And this dovetails with what you were talking about, Adrian. There have been a problem for the U.S. for quite some time with American dollars being used in Europe, but those American dollars were not under American control. And that was under an old system called LIBOR, where they had 30, 60, 90 days to balance those books whenever they used those American dollars.   Now, Trump, and I believe this was in a previous administration, he switched them over to a SOFR system where those American dollars that the Europeans are using have to be balanced every night, just like the Bank of International Settlements. And so he took away from them the ability to manipulate the American dollar. So now we've got Carney.   And two days after he's sworn in as prime minister, he makes an announcement that we're going to sell $300 billion of our debt in American dollars to the European Union. Brett Olin calls this essentially the loony dollar because before it was the American dollars that were being manipulated by the Europeans were called Euro dollars. So Brett Olin has coined the term loony dollar.   That's what Carney's trying to do. And we know that Carney is no Canadian. Sure, he may have been born in this country, but he was governor of the Bank of England.   He infamously called himself a European when he was speaking to the European Parliament. He has no loyalty to this country whatsoever. He's very much a globalist, very much on board with their agenda.   And so what happens here? If I'm understanding everything that Brett told me, and I think I do, Canada then sells $300 billion of debt to Europe in American dollars that the Americans do not control because that's under Canadian authority. Now, of course, we have to pay on that debt.   But the whole purpose of this is to destroy the value of the American dollar because that is the one thing that could stop the world from moving to CBDCs. This is the other thing that Trump's doing. He's balancing the budget, right?   He's got Doge. He's got Elon Musk slashing things, balancing the budget. He's taking back control of the American dollar.   This is what the tariffs are for in order to stop other countries from being able to manipulate their dollar. And so we've got this war happening where Trump is trying to protect the American people, the American dollar, and we've got people like Carney who are working with the European Union, whose economy is in a shambles, by the way, even worse than ours, to give them back these American dollars that are not under American control through Canada. And the fall of this is that, A, Trump cannot back down on the tariffs because it's the only way he can shut that down.   And B, it will bankrupt Canada.   [Speaker 4] (39:04 - 39:05) Yeah.   [Speaker 1] (39:06 - 39:10) Gentlemen, I would like your comments on this, and we're going to start with Adrian.   [Speaker 3] (39:10 - 39:52) I wholeheartedly agree. I read an article. I didn't bet it out well, but the plan is to destroy the American dollar, and Carney is instrumental in doing that.   So I totally agree with your take on that. So the other thing I read is that, or I've seen is that we're being encouraged to join the European Economic Union to be part of the euro, whether it's going to be, we're going to take on the euro dollar. I don't know if there's any footing on that, but I hear rumors of that as well.   So yeah, I agree. All right.   [Speaker 4] (39:53 - 39:54) Bryce, what do you think?   [Speaker 2] (39:55 - 44:11) Yeah, I am. So I think this perfectly encapsulates what's happening and why. So the only way that you can destroy a currency is by hyperinflation or default.   Those are the two reasons that currencies collapse. And throughout history, this has happened in innumerable cases. Somebody gets overextended and they can't pay their debt.   The default, nobody trusts them, they collapse, or they get hyperinflated, which is what happened in the Roman Empire and many others, and their currency becomes worthless. And so because Bretton Woods was the original underpinning of the global financial system when they took over from the British after World War II, we've been living in the euro dollar, the USD system. And what I'm showing here in relation to CBDCs, this is the reason that they're doing this.   They want a civil war, war, whatever you want to think about it, to destroy the institutions in society that support the Western society. The U.S. has been, because of the Constitution and the institutions that they built hundreds of years ago at this point, has been the beacon of democracy and justice, and not so much truth anymore, but at least justice and democracy for generations at this point. That is a threat to their totalitarian control.   And why I'm showing this, Vietnam is the first major country to go fully biometric transparency. The country with a population of 100 million will go fully biometric transparency in 2025, right? And this is what they want.   This is why they want it, right? If you take the digital ID and marry it to a central bank digital currency, that means that all of your transactions and finances and every transaction that you ever do, just like on the blockchain, is now connected to you, the person. And if they don't like you and you don't toe the line, you can push a button and get rid of them.   You're like, hey, you can't go and do anything now. Like carbon credits, this is what's happening in Canada right now. My bank has the voluntary option to track how much carbon you spend with the idea that you want to reduce that carbon, right?   So we're putting a carbon cap on people's transactions. It's so ludicrous and dystopian and tyrannical. I just hate it, right?   But the other thing I'm showing here is this is what's been happening all across the West, right? And the central bank digital currencies that Carney and all of the ilk are pushing on us are the mechanism, the final mechanism to absolutely control everybody, right? So my opinion on this is very stark, right?   This is, to me, the end game and the final battle that we have have to fight and resist and ensure that it does not happen. Otherwise, all of the freedoms that we enjoy today that have been fought for and bled for for generations, we will lose, right? So my opinion of this is very stark, is that this is a very serious situation that we're all dealing with.   And one of the reasons I got into gold and silver is because I recognize this. I was like, I don't want to be in a system that is run by the idiots that are currently running the system. Why would I want to do that?   And the only way that they would be able to get people to voluntarily or ask for a new system is if the old one is broken and they can't feed their family, right? That is the desperation that they are trying to create with us. And the last 10 years have proven this.   Our quality of living, the amount of wealth that we have in Canada has been slashed by all of these policies that are absolutely anti-Western, anti-Canadian, and anti-reality. They're just straight up lying about what's happening and why. And I just can't stand it anymore, man.   And so kind of where I'll leave off on this is that this is an existential threat. And I don't say that lightly. There's lots of things that are existential right now, but this is one of the biggest.   The central bank digital currencies are one of the biggest threats to us. And all of the policies that are being implemented across the Western world are pushing us into that. Ursula von der Leyen, last week, the week before, whatever it was, they're literally saying, hey, we're going to roll out a digital euro now.   They were saying that was a conspiracy theory a few years ago. And they're like, hey, we're actually doing it now.   [Speaker 1] (44:12 - 52:46) Yes, within six months. All right. So first of all, to address something you were just talking about, Bryce, and that we've retouched a few times before.   For anybody who's not quite on the loop yet of why we've got this list of lies out there. The green agenda is the biggest one of climate alarmism, which is completely untrue. Very easily proven that man-made global warming by a CO2 emissions is absolutely a scientific impossibility.   The reason for it is these globalists do not have an army. They can't march in and enforce totalitarian control militarily. Certainly they have a certain amount of control over the UN.   As we've seen, UN soldiers were involved in the Hamas, October 7th attack on Israel. That's now been confirmed. They pay off terrorists at times and point them at somebody they don't like, that they want to destabilize.   But beyond that, I mean, they can't just march into all of our countries and point guns at our heads and say, you're going to fall in line and do whatever we tell you to do or we're going to shoot you. So what they need to do is to get the populace to willingly give up their rights and freedoms. And this is why the climate alarmist agenda, where they can tell everybody, oh, we need 15 minute cities and you need to stop driving cars and you need to stop, you know, all of this stuff because the planet's going to die if you don't.   It's utter rubbish, but people are believing it, unfortunately. And so they will give up their rights. So that's just a little bit of an explanation there for anybody who doesn't quite understand yet why that narrative has been in place and why it continues to be pushed so hard.   Warren, I want to get back to you because we've just discussed everything that Adrian said, the things that I related from Brett Oland about what Carney's up to, what Trump is doing with the tariffs, the real reason for them, what the fallout of that is going to be. And you highlighted earlier that the central banks are still buying out gold in record amounts where clearly they understand something that's going on. So why are they buying all that gold?   And the second question, why are they preventing people from buying gold and silver? I think, you know, I'll answer it simply. I think they're buying gold because, you know, gold has always been the underpinning of the financial system, right, for thousands of years.   In a way, it is the barometer of the health of the financial system. So when we're purchasing gold, when we're starting to purchase more gold, it's sort of, we're admitting that the financial system, the traditional system, the fiat system, is in trouble. And the central banks are in that too, but they also, like all the banks in the world, they're leveraged.   So they have lots of debt on their balance sheets, right, because that's what banks do because we have somehow, you know, in the modern banking, which I think it's very unjust, really. And, you know, talking about Mark Carney, that's what he's about. He's a central banker.   And in central banking, the structure of it, if you will, is based on fractional reserve banking where, you know, you and I go to the bank and go to take out some money. They don't have all our deposits. They would have a run on the bank if we all started, if we all started taking our deposits, there was a run on the bank, they'd have to close the bank.   So that's why they have bail-in legislation, you know, at the commercial bank level. So the central banks are accumulating gold simply because, then, like, to simplify it, why, is because the fiat system, it's run its course. And this is a cycle.   If you look back in history, 80 to 100 years is the recent sort of average for a fiat system, whether it's the US dollar, the British pound, you know, the French spent, the Dutch, 80 years, 100 years is a good run. And now we're at that, we're, what we're, why we're, why they're accumulating now is sort of we're in the end game. We are accelerating the demolition of the dollar, if you will, the dollar being the world's reserve currency, the US dollar.   And now its purchasing power is about 3% of what it was, what it was created in 1913. So that, so the banks, I think, are, they are the leading edge of the financial system. They are planning with the BIS, like these gentlemen were talking about and the IMF for the next system.   And that next system is moving back towards that traditional system that we've had for hundreds of years in different variations, which is based on gold. Like the US had a 40, a 40% gold reserve for a long time. The US has had a bimetallic standard before of both gold and silver to back the printing of money.   And, you know, more recently, the British sterling silver, the pound sterling. So you factor that in and then you think of the BRICS countries who are, want a different way of doing things. They don't want to be beholden to this system that allows one entity, the US, to print money out of thin air that they have to have US dollars.   They have to hold them because commodities are based in US dollars and they want a new system that is more, I don't know if honest is the right word, but more disciplined, which is what gold will do to large financial entities is that if we have a reserve, it keeps them honest. They can't print money out of thin air like they're doing now. They have to have, they're constrained by having that reserve.   And so the BRICS countries, you know, and their, their unit white paper, which is they're, they're talking about their settlement currency. It says right in a 40% gold reserve. So I'd say that's why, you know, in a big way, that's what essential banks are accumulating gold.   All right. I want to expand on that a little bit though, because for the longest time I was seeing BRICS and CBDCs is kind of a parallel threat, but I've, I've come to understand. I don't really think that's what's going on.   There was a reason why the globalists tried so hard to stop Donald Trump from becoming president of the United States again. And it's because they didn't want him doing what he's doing right now, trying to rescue the US dollar, which could make a CBDC system very, very difficult to sell. If he was to balance the budget, if he was to regain control of the US dollar, then the value of that dollar would go back up.   And the global community would continue to use it as their international currency of trade. So why would we need to switch to something else if we have a stable US dollar? And so what I think we've got here is a three-way war going on.   We've got Trump and America trying to rescue the US dollar. We've got the globalists trying to destroy that dollar and replace it with a CBDC system that can control us all through digital IDs. And then we've got the BRICS countries, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa.   And now there's been at least four more that have joined them. And I think there's another 12 that have applied. These are countries that don't want to be controlled by sanctions from the US, by control of the US dollar, so that they can have their own monetary system between them.   And they can say to the rest of the world that, and most of these countries, of course, are ones that, you know, commit some fairly serious crimes against humanity. And they don't want those sanctions to be happening so that they can have their control. So it looks to me like we've got as a three-way war going on here.   And so if that is true, then what I would suggest, Warren, is that the reason why the central banks are buying up all this money, and remembering, folks, central banks are owned by people. It's not some faceless entity. It's people.   We may not know who owns them, but it's people. And those people are very, very wealthy, very powerful, and they want to keep that power. And so they're looking at a very unstable future, because we have three possible outcomes here.   It seems to me that what they're doing is they're buying insurance, that no matter what happens, they're going to own a crap ton of gold. They're going to control that gold, and through that, they will preserve their wealth regardless of what happens in the coming years. What do you think of that?   [Speaker 2] (52:48 - 52:52) Well, I take that. That's a really good summation. I'll tap onto it after.   [Speaker 1] (52:53 - 56:08) Yeah, I mean, I try to simplify things all the time when I, you know, when I answer that, is really, I think that's, Will, is that what you're acknowledging there is that they won't go easy into the night. I mean, this is the central banks. They're not going to just give up and say, okay, we're, you know, well, we'll go back to the U.S. dollar of, you know, privately. And Trove has talked about, there's, you know, he's mentioned, or in his circles, they mentioned abolishing the FED, right? Abolishing the central bank, the printing of money by a, by a private entity. And, um, it is really, um, in my opinion, the downfall of, um, the West and the United States being the leader of the West, especially with a Western led financial system, is that when you allowed, um, private entities, which is the central banks to control the creation of money, you give up everything, you give up your sovereignty.   this is, we, we can, we can distill that down and look at where we are right now. In North America, you know, we have, um, we have all these resources. Uh, we have, especially Canada, there's no way we should have people living on the street, intense cities.   We have all these resources. And somehow we agreed, or somehow what's came into play here over the last hundred years is central banks with this idea that we can keep having inflation and somehow it's okay to have two, 3% inflation a year, which just accumulates and it's robbing us and who's getting rich. It, the central banking system is a mechanism to, um, how enrich that 1%.   It is really now, um, a mechanism that facility facilitates the unequivocal distribution of wealth where the, the rich get super rich. That's what's happening. And, um, you know, we can go back to, um, like John F.   Kennedy. They, so they were just published some papers, right. Of the JFK files, just like the yesterday, two days ago.   And a theory that I've always believed in. And I think maybe this is why Trump was shot twice already is that JFK wanted to, um, one of the things that he wanted, he was against the, um, the globalist of, and in multiple ways, you know, Cuba, Bay of pigs, a lots of different things, but he, he wanted to also start out for the greenbacks again, produced by, right. Yeah.   So let me jump in and give you a little bit of history here that I happen to know. There have been three presidents in American history that have attempted to shut down the fractional reserve banking system and take the control away from the globalists. And they were Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, and, uh, Kennedy.   And all three of them were either assassinated or died under very suspicious circumstances. James Garfield in the early 1900s died on a train of food poisoning. I mean, come on, easiest place in the world to poison somebody.   [Speaker 2] (56:09 - 56:13) Woodrow Wilson actually got rid of the central banking temporarily before they got it back in.   [Speaker 1] (56:13 - 57:13) Right. So we've had presidents that have tried to shut this down and I would not be surprised that if Donald Trump secedes in protecting the American dollar, that might be his next step because that is the cause of the inflation central bank, sorry, the fractional reserve banking system where banks can simply create money to thin air, which of course is going to devalue it, which of course is going to cause inflation. So I'm sorry to interrupt there, but I just thought that little history lesson was very important to understand those blanks that the central banks will go to, to protect their wealth.   And this ties back to what we were just discussing about. There's a three-way war here. They don't know what's going to happen, but only one of those outcomes allows them to keep their fractional reserve banking system.   And that is if Trump rescues the U S dollar. And even if he does, he might still shut down fractional reserve banking, at least in the U S so what are they doing? Buying up tons and tons of gold.   It's an insurance policy.   [Speaker 3] (57:13 - 57:53) You've got to remember, if you're going to remember that, that the central banks are owned by the, um, the banking families. And ultimately it's true. Yeah.   It's all in the control of private, private enterprise really are private families. It's really all about the control of, of, of wealth because the, they own so much already. And the reason they want to enslave the population is they don't want the population to have what's remaining to continue to grow and to continue to gather more wealth.   They need to enslave humanity basically. absolutely right. All right, Bryce, you were going to comment on all of this.   [Speaker 2] (57:54 - 1:02:55) Yeah. So I think this is a really good segue into this very important idea. We have lived in the West under a false pretense that we've lived in peacetime.   We're not, this is peacetime is over. So anybody that thinks that you can escape this, run away from it, hide from it, get that idea out of your head that that idea is over, right? This is now a time of war and everybody gets to participate because the powers that shouldn't be have decided that this is what we're doing now.   Right? So the three-way war that you talk about, I actually talk about this in a very similar way for Canada. There's only four paths for Canada, four and four only.   And that's number one. We kick out the oligarchs, communists, and radicals that are trying to destroy the country. And we get our shit together as it were and figure, figure out what we need to do and actually go and do whatever that is, right?   That's a whole process. We can discuss it if you want to, probably not the best for today, but that is option one. That's my preference.   Hopefully that happens, right? Option two is Mark Carney and the WWEF and all the other international globalists. They take over Canada and basically liquidate us for whatever they're trying to do.   Not good for us. Option three is China and the bricks. And you know, that neck of the woods sees and take our society to some degree or another.   And we're basically a vassal state of them. Option four is we become, you know, forces North America with the U S and you know, Donald Trump makes us the 51st state or whatever that means or however that works. We basically become a vassal state of the U S those are the only four ways that Canada is going to move forward because the problems that we've been talking about today are systemic and existential, right?   And it's important to understand with the war wars only stop when somebody wins and somebody loses, right? So this is something that everybody is a part of now. And I've been, and I feel like chicken little a little bit because I've been seeing this for decades at this point and, you know, crying and complaining about it for years.   And, you know, now I get the opportunity and thank you for the opportunity to speak more publicly about this. But this is something that is a threat to our existence as a civilization, right? Not just Canada, Canada specifically, obviously, but not just us, but the Western world, all of the, the Western values that we have, all of these things are under attack, right?   And I got into gold and silver with Warren because I see this as a threat and gold and silver is one of the few things that we have as you know, the little people to protect ourselves and our wealth that we've built up over, over generations and keep it from the hands of these people, right? They are using this because they know, as we should know that this is a tool and a, and a, and a way that we can use, sorry, the way that we can protect ourselves from all of this chaos, right? And, and kind of used it, you touched on it too.   And I'll briefly just share this, but this is something that we've been sharing a little bit more often recently, but like what you talked about with gold and silver, this is why they're doing it, right? They, the, the reason that you buy gold and silver is one of two reasons, one to protect something that you already have wealth or to make money on a ball run, because there's so much happening in the economy. There's only a couple of times in, in the last hundred years where gold has really skyrocketed, right?   And since 1971, there's been, I think three, three or four bull runs. I can't remember off the top of my head, but at least three. And now we're in, I think the fourth, where this is going to be a historic bull run for gold and silver because of the decline of the U S dollar, right?   So savings, portfolio insurance, investment potential, and the chaos in the world. This is why central banks are doing it. And this is why a lot of the people that we talk to, a lot of the people that call us up are like, Hey, I'm concerned about the world.   I want to protect, I want to protect what I have. And I want to make money off of this as well to increase my wealth. Right.   And so the kind of where I'll leave off on this in, in the context of what we're talking about here is if you know that somebody is trying to come in, steal everything that you have, destroy your family and, um, enslave you and your family, right? If you know that, or if you accept that that is true, that is all of the impetus is on you to do something about it. Right.   And the only way that we can defend against this collectively is by working together. And this is one of the tools that you have for your personal wealth, right? Once this, once this all settles, right?   And this is kind of the, the distant future at some point, right? Once all of this stuff settles and somebody loses and somebody wins, let's just assume for the second that the good guys, when us, the little people defeat all the bad people, we went right. We still have to rebuild at that point, right?   Because war destroys things, destroys people, destroys lives, right? So after all of that happens, we have to rebuild, right? And all throughout history, gold and silver has been used after the war is over to rebuild and reinvest in whatever the other system is.   So they talk about a reset, resetting the, the, the world under the dictates that they want. Well, I'm really talking about what do we want to reforge our civilization into so that we go into the stars and not into the grave, right?   [Speaker 1] (1:02:55 - 1:03:09) All right. Now, gentlemen, I want to turn our attention to Canada now, but before we do that, I wanted to ask if any of you have anything else on the global stage that you want to address, because I have some specific questions about how all this is going to affect us in Canada. And once we get onto that subject, I'd like to stick with it.   [Speaker 2] (1:03:10 - 1:03:16) Um, yeah, I've got one, um, regarding China because China is really important. It is. Yes.   Thank you.   [Speaker 1] (1:03:16 - 1:03:34) So I know I have some about gold, like gold and silver, big headlines that, that tie into the central banking thing, like pick the bigger picture. Um, but it's, I don't know if this is the time. Maybe we do it later on.   actually, no, maybe it is Adrian. Was there anything else you wanted to interject?   [Speaker 3] (1:03:35 - 1:04:16) I just wanted to interject that we have to have the means to rebuild and we have to have the ability to protect ourselves. We have no army. And of the, of the three options that we're facing are four options that, that Bryce was talking about.   The only option we have is aligning ourselves with the U S where we have the power of, of their military to defend us against, I, which I see as, as worse than enemies. So even though, you know, um, maybe it's not the best solution, it's the better of all the solutions out there right now, because trying to go in on our own is not going to happen. We are not going to defeat any of those entities.   Um, we need to align with somebody that's powerful. And right now Trump's on the right track. But unfortunately that's not going to happen as long as Carney is running our government.   [Speaker 4] (1:04:16 - 1:04:17) Correct.   [Speaker 3] (1:04:17 - 1:04:25) Correct. All right. So now it becomes we, the people, we have to, we have to stand up.   We have to, we have to wake up. And how do we wake up? Most of the Canadians are asleep.   [Speaker 1] (1:04:26 - 1:09:05) Well, and you do have a point. Okay. And I've, I've said that's in a capital carnage run in the country.   We do have provincial jurisdiction, something that's happening here in Alberta that has been proposed. I have no idea if Danielle Smith is listening to it, but has been proposed is that we should be selling. And by the way, I also learned from Brett Olin that two thirds of our exports to the U S are oil.   And most of that's coming from Alberta. If Smith was to say to Trump, we're going to sell you our oil, but we're not going to sell it to in us dollars. We're going to sell it to you in gold.   That solves both sides of the problem. Now, Trump doesn't have us dollars being controlled outside of the country. He still gets his oil and Alberta gets gold.   Being the only province. It does sound like a brilliant idea. Doesn't it?   And as I said, I have no idea if Daniel Smith is, but it would be a wonderful solution. So yes, there is the possibility that the people, let's say provinces at the very least could align themselves with the U S either economically or who knows, I could even succeed, I suppose, and, and join the U S we don't know what's going to happen there. I've always believed that Trump is using that whole 51st state thing as a bargaining tactic.   He's not serious. I'm sure he understands just how difficult it would be to do that. But anyways, let's then come back to, I'd like to come back to, I think to Warren and let's have the information you wanted to give us now.   And then Bryce, I'll have you finish up and then we'll move on to Canada. Okay. And, you know, with regards to that, Alberta gold possible scenario, that's what, when the U S weaponized the dollar, that's how Russia and China have been trading.   So China needs Russian oil and to evade the sanctions, they got a gold deal going on the side. That's what they've been doing. It's a way to, you know, it's real money outside that traditional system.   Okay. So here I'll just share the screen and go through this. Okay.   So we just want to talk about these three things. The last point, the gold revaluation, maybe the most pertinent to what we were just talking about with the central banks, but these are headlines that are really shaking up the whole system with a gold at against the U S dollar. So hey, this, first of all paper, well, that should say physical.   I just did this slide a few minutes ago, physical paper versus physical gold. So we have these two markets in the West in London and New York, the New York commodities exchange and the London gold market and the LBMA, the London bullion market association. And so they have paper trading of gold and silver.   It's a very big market actually. And this is where you can buy paper representations of gold and silver, perhaps in an ETF and it follows the underlying spot price. And you don't have to store it and all those things.   And so that's a big market. And it has been particularly the last 20 years when people do us for delivery off the entities, want delivery off the London exchange two to three days is the norm. And they have this just in time delivery model where they can supply you with the physical product.   And they have a small float in that, all their holdings to do this because the rest of it is spoken for. Just think about a bunch of spoken for. And then another, they have a float that they can deal with the ebbs and flows of these requests for physical product.   All of a sudden though, the delivery is out of London. They're saying we need four to eight weeks to give you your physical product. That set off alarm bells.   Basically the world is waking up to the idea that London doesn't, it's like fractional reserve banking. They don't have all the physical gold equaling the paper market that they, that they're trading in, which is quite large. And this has led to sort of like a run on the exchange, if you will.   And so for March, sorry for January, February, now March, we see record physical deliveries off the exchange. And you might've heard about gold coming into the United States as well. I've heard 2000 tons of the last three months coming in back to the United States.   [Speaker 2] (1:09:07 - 1:09:16) And just for a, just for a point of reference for everybody gold, the U S supposedly has 8,300 or 8,100 tons of gold. So that's a massive amount of gold.   [Speaker 1] (1:09:17 - 1:22:48) Yeah. And we have none. Yeah.   None. Zero. A little, we had sold like eight, nine years ago.   Yeah. Yeah. As far as cycles, Trudeau, just to give them a little, a little, I know something.   It wasn't him that started it. Right. It was David Dodge in 2006, the governor general at the time.   Trudeau was the last one. And we are the only G seven country now without a gold reserve. I wonder if that's more of a diabolical plan to keep us bankrupt.   So we could do what Mark Carney, what Adrian was proposing there, you know, we're bankrupt. The rule goes to a gold standard. We don't have it.   That's something I think about another sort of graphic. Now you can see the size of the paper market represents that black dot. And there's the physical that's for silver.   Silver has been, if there's, if there's a metal being manipulated by the bullion banks of silver is, is more manipulated. And it's why it's, it's cost is nowhere near the all time high yet. You have gold reaching its all time high.   It's one of the reasons here's another chart. This is delivery of off the New York commodities exchange or physical deliveries. Now, look how it's just shot up there.   So these are contracts where in the past, you might just roll it over and get more paper, but now it's still rolling over. People are demanding. I see people it's entities.   Sovereign wealth funds, countries that demanding physical product. So this tells you, it's sort of like the, I look at it like the emperor wears no clothes. They are, they don't have all the physical product.   They never have for all the paper and people are getting concerned, worried, taking it off these exchanges. So this is now the other topic that we keep hearing about, which is for knocks, because if we are going to talk about revaluing gold, perhaps, which I'll mention at the minute, or we need to do an audit of what is really in Fort Knox. Apparently Fort Knox has not been audited since the fifties.   And then a lighter one was done in the seventies. And it's a real problem because if you, if, if we all sort of agree, and it's to me, it's very apparent that gold is underpinning everything here and the financial system that we need to know how much we have. I say, we, you know, this, you, the U S but the, the, the world's financial power.   So how much is in there? Like Bryce said, we think this is the official amount, 800, 8,000, 133 metric tons. Okay.   So if you, the official stats say the U S has the most, just like why, you know, why were they given the world's reserve currency status? They had the most gold. They had the biggest Navy, the biggest economy when they did that back in Bretton woods.   Well, supposedly they have this much gold still, but it's not been audited. So, and also there's four locations here. Okay.   It's not just Fort Knox. Fort Knox is the most famous one. So we, we say it's Fort Knox, but there's three other locations.   So is the gold all there? We don't really know. We, we know that there's different theories.   One of the people that I sort of follow quite a bit is Jim records who he thinks it's all there, but it's probably hypothecated. It's probably leased out. There's also just like an audit.   If you're really serious about it, you would go in there and say, what is the purity of this? And reason why the purity is a suspect for some of it, maybe 10% of it is that when they confiscated gold in 1833, they had coinage. That was 90% pure as well as a hundred percent.   I think it was called confederation dollars, 90% pure. They melted that down. So you got all that going on too.   Is it all there? Is it all pure? It's hypothecated and least likely.   I personally think from all the studying that I do and continue to do and have done is China has a lot more than they're saying. It's more opaque over there. They're there.   The communist party owns the bags. The banks can hold gold. They are buying gold off the traditional channels, off the outside of the LBMA and the New York exchange.   I think they probably have more in the U S. Unfortunately may not have all this eight, one, three, three tons. So there's the estimate of this gold flying back into New York.   And so now we're trying to figure out why is that? Is it because some people brought up the tariffs. They were trying to get it out of London into New York before these tariffs.   I don't think that's true. I don't think there would be tariffs on gold and silver. Another thing is another scenario or a theory of why this gold is coming in would be traders at the bullion banks playing the arbitrage because the prices were starting to get a little bit higher in New York than they were in London.   So trying to make the arbitrage. Another is Trump is pulling everything in from all over the world, wherever there's gold and getting it into Fort Knox. So there's those different things.   So let's, let me wrap up now with the last big topic that I think ties into the central banking theme that we've been talking about, which is possible gold revaluation. So what does it mean? It's really where a big entity like the central banks, like China, like the United States, who have all this gold to one day just revaluate it.   And so instead of 3000 us dollars an ounce of gold, we wake up and it's 10,000 or 20,000. It sounds far fetched, but it's actually been done before. And what would the purpose be?   Well, to restore competence in the fiat system, perhaps, you know, to strengthen the U S currency, restore some discipline into it. So if we had that gold reserve requirement, again, we couldn't print money out of thin air, which is to me, this is the central banking thing that, you know, their ability to break currency. You can see how evil it is.   Unjusted is anyway, just to print money out of thin air. It's just wrong. And we have historical examples.   Like in 1933, we confiscated gold. We paid people the $20 of 67 cents. Six months later, we revalued it $35, devaluing the people that held dollars.   They, again, in 1971, at that time, it was fixed at the $35 level. And then they let it go free. And on the balance sheet of the United States, the gold is valued at $42.   And so that was the last price before it got floated. And now it's, you know, floating and it goes up with the markets. And so that's another thing that just in general, the United States, they're just talking about collateralization of their assets.   So they can right side their balance sheet. China could be a player in this because they have so much gold. So really it's the entities that have the most gold.   And it's that, it's that saying, he who has the most gold can make the rules. They could be the ones that reevaluate it or together with the BRICS countries. And they've openly said, we would like a more fair price setting mechanism that, that is coming out of New York and London for gold.   And they, and Russia said, we would like to set our own prices over here. And they both have exchanges. The, the Chinese have their like Shanghai gold exchange in 2003, the Russians started their exchange, I believe in 2023, but you know, they are working together and with the BRICS countries, let them set the price setting because the idea is that, or the commonly held belief is that London and Europe have suppressed the prices, because if you think about it, why would you, they want you and I to buy gold. And that is that barometer thing again, where if gold is going up high and people are buying gold, that they're losing faith in this system that they can control, which is this fiat system.   So here's the three options. And I'll try to go quick. One is just to go back to that gold, 40% of gold reserve.   And you would say, use it to M one money supply. You would take how many ounces we believe we have there at four knocks at 8,133 tons. And you would revalue gold to 27,500.   Now that would give the U S the 40% gold reserve. Like we said, we've done it before it would restore faith. That's the idea in the U S currency.   It would, it would equal what the bricks has saying in their white paper of the unit white paper where they're saying 40% gold reserve. There's all kinds of pros and cons. This could destabilize a lot of things.   The Adrian would be better qualified to tell you about this. I mean, it's really changing the very underpinnings of the system. Here's another, another scenario.   This is more radical. Now you'd revalue it much higher. Like it's something like $140,000 announced.   It sounds far-fetched, but really we've done this stuff before. Just, just keep that in mind to really wipe out all the debt. It would change the whole system overnight.   I don't know. It's, it's beyond my, my real house to tell you how that would roll out, but there is talk about it. And you know, immediate debt relief supposedly, and maybe the central banks again, who say they have, they are slowly shedding us treasuries, right?   Getting rid of that us, the goal, the us treasuries while accumulating more gold, the BIS that we talked about, they designated gold as a tier one asset now for the central banks. And they have a lot of debt. Well, what better way to get out of that debt and say this other asset is worth a lot more.   So here's another thing. And again, these things I I'm not, I'm just going to gloss over, you know, we'll give you the highlights because you know, I'm not an expert at treasuries, but basically this is someone called Judy shelter. If you really want to learn about this stuff, I recommend following her.   She's lots. She's very wise. Trump would like her to be on the board of the federal reserve.   And her idea is that right now we have $7 trillion coming up debt for the U S this year. Right. And like, it's really hard to fathom how they're going to sell this debt again, because the big players, the big buyers like China, Japan, they're not interested in buying or losing their appetite to buy more us debt.   And so now it's harder to sell. Then, then you get into, well, what's going to happen next? The federal reserve will monetize its own debt because I'll be the last resort.   But maybe one way is to say, look, the countries around the world, you have this U S debt, the U S owes you, we're going to pay you back, but we're going to change it to a hundred year treasuries, a hundred year from the 10 year it's. And, and, and we're going to back it by gold a hundred percent. And so we're going to restore confidence that, you know, it is backed by gold and we can't acknowledging we can't pay you.   And they, and one idea is that Trump might force their allies to do this, whether they want it or not, we hold Canada holds a lot of quite a few, quite a bit of us debt as well. And so instead of paying us back, they say, we can't, we're not paying you back. You're an ally.   Do you want to keep selling into our market? This is another sort of thing. It could hold over his allies, but basically make the treasuries more sound.   And Judy Shelton is a big proponent of going back to sound money. And she doesn't, she's like, I know she's done. She's not on, she's down on the fed.   I think too, I'm seeing it more and more. Now I get it. Why central banking privately controlled printing of money is, is bad for all of us.   Anyway, it's like stable instrument again, restore confidence and maybe get people, people, countries, entities excited about investing in treasuries again, you know? So, okay. So I'll stop there.   Yeah. Those are the big things that are happening now in the gold and silver world. And, you know, it goes around with the central banks and all that.   So hope that was interesting. All right. So Adrian, do you have anything you want to add to that before we come back to Bryce for the big picture?   [Speaker 3] (1:22:48 - 1:23:49) Yeah, just briefly wanted to Trump mentioned that he's not backing CBDC is obviously, but he is backing Bitcoin. And I can't remember the amount would be like a third or something would be Bitcoin in, in, in, in reserve. Well, one plan that I heard of having rebetted is, is, is the, the plan to allow Bitcoin to run wild.   And some estimates that Bitcoin would reach a million dollars Bitcoin. And so then you have that federal reserve money grow to that value, turn around and then buy back gold at the current, keep gold suppressed for a while, allow it to grow, but keep it suppressed. Well, I gold at the current price with that Bitcoin value, and then revalue gold at a hundred thousand or one 40, whatever that number is.   That would go a long way to totally wipe out the debt.   [Speaker 1] (1:23:49 - 1:24:07) Right. And those are your reset. Yeah.   Right. Yeah. Bryce.   Yeah. Thank you for bringing that up. Sorry.   I'm interrupting here. Yeah. But using Bitcoin.   Yeah. And purchasing gold with yeah. Using the gold, purchase a Bitcoin, purchase the gold during price, a literal pump and dump.   Yeah. Yeah.   [Speaker 2] (1:24:07 - 1:24:08) Pump and dump.   [Speaker 1] (1:24:09 - 1:25:17) Tie that into what Will was saying about, you know, Trump looking to get, get out of this control of the central banks, perhaps that could do it where if they have, you know, the home of the, the home of the innovation, the bit with crypto, and a crypto aficionado, I'll call it. It is the U S and he's, and he's also promoting U S made coins, U S made tokens to be taxed, to not accept. And if he could pull that off, maybe that would give a way out of like a new, a new monetary system outside of the central bank control.   I would love to see that happen myself, but automated nestling along the themes of a multipolar system where we have different currencies. And there's, there's advocates in the U S now say, we've got to get off this world's reserve currency. Stop being the world's reserve currency this way.   There is people that are pro U S thinking about this. It's very interesting. All right, Bryce, let's have your summary.   [Speaker 2] (1:25:18 - 1:30:13) Yeah. So I'll kind of, I'll keep this fairly brief because this is where this is all going. And I kind of mentioned it before, but I'll just kind of end with this is that the, we we've entered a time of conflict, right?   You can tell it from the economics, you can tell for the politics and you can tell from actual war, right? And so I'll briefly bring this up. But one of the things that should really scare people right now is that the, the, the bail in legislation that we've been talking about for more than a year now, right?   The European commission to use $10 trillion of citizens savings for EU defense. Right? So like the, the, they're talking about re militarizing Europe.   I mean, Europe Europe's been under invasion for going on a decade or two now, right? From, from the third world immigration type stuff. And the U S has basically told them like, we need to prepare for war with China because at the end of the day, like the, the three pronged war that you were talking about, right?   China is an antithesis to Western values. They don't care about human rights. They don't care about freedom of speech.   They don't care about freedom of expression. They don't care about freedom of anything. They care about power and control.   That's all they care about. And they will do literally anything, including executing and genociding their own citizens to maintain that control. Like the, the amount of depravity and insanity that the, the Chinese communist party is, is they alone are an actual existential threat to humanity and, and truth and justice and all those good stuff that we care about.   But that war is coming. They have stated it. The there's multiple military leaders in the U S that have also stated it 2027, 2026 looks like the, the time that they think war with China is going to happen.   And the U S cannot fight seven different wars all across the planet. Right. And so what we see right now, what we see happening right now, even though they're talking about a ceasefire with, with Putin and Russia, that's not going to happen.   Like the, the, the Russian federation is now on full war footing, right? They are fully mobilizing 10% or more. I think it's more than, I think it's like 20% or some ridiculous amount of their economy is fully war mobilized, right?   You cannot turn that off and you cannot turn that around until the war stops. And Trump, despite what he's saying publicly is taking strategic choices to empower the U S to fight multiple wars. They're talking about fighting Iran with Israel.   I don't agree with that. I don't agree with the war in, in Ukraine, but I do agree with the war in China. And here's why China has explicitly said, we are trying to destroy the West.   I happen to be part of the West. I don't really want to be destroyed. So sorry, China and, and the CCP that controls them.   I don't want you to win. Right. And so as, as much as an anti-war person, as I am, I'm also not a pacifist.   I'm also a realist. I look at all of the stuff that's happening in as accurate a way as I can. Right.   And Adrian and Warren have just explicitly said, what is the financial end of this actually look like? Well, I'm here to talk about what is the physical reality that we live in, right? I ask a lot of people, a lot of the time, what do you think is more, more probable that we have world peace and we become a global civilized organization that goes off into space and we start exploring the universe and, and the galaxy, or we fight world war three and we fight to the death, whoever wins.   To me, it's an open and shut case that we have to fight a war now, right? I don't want to do that. I've never wanted to do that.   And when I was growing up, I used to look at world war two history of like, oh, thank God we advanced beyond that. Well, we haven't, we are still a whole bunch of tribalistic lunatics trying to, trying to survive on this planet. Right.   And where this is going is nowhere good. And so the, the, the important thing to me for everybody to understand is that everything that you do now, everything. So every, the choices that you make every day, the purchase that you make every day, the people that you talk to, what you talk about all has to be within the context of, there is people that are fighting a war with you, even if you don't want to fight a war.   And I certainly don't, we are being forced into this by powers that are beyond really our comprehension or our pay grade. That at the end of the day, us, the little people, the people that are just trying to survive, just trying to have a good time with their families and just trying to live life. We are being forced into another war that is at this point, existential, right?   So I really want to stress this, the importance of this is that whatever we choose to do in the next year, in this election, in all of the politics and the policies, and we can talk about a little bit over the Canada specific stuff in a bit here, but this is the, this is the, well, what do you call it? The era, the zeitgeist, the, the, the challenge of our generation is we have to survive this, right? Even if we do survive, we then have to still thrive after that.   And that means that we have to reforge our society to be tougher, right? We've lived, we are a soft, we are a soft society now, and it is time to harden up.   [Speaker 1] (1:30:14 - 1:30:38) Right. And of course I agree with you, it's going to come to a war probably with China at some point. And the other thing that is almost certainly going to happen, unfortunately, is going to be a European war with Russia over Ukraine.   And the reason is despite Donald Trump trying to defuse that situation and bring peace, the European economy is in a shambles. Well, when your economy is in the toilet, how do you fix it? You start a war.   [Speaker 2] (1:30:39 - 1:30:40) Yeah, a hundred percent.   [Speaker 1] (1:30:40 - 1:31:34) So that's, this is, and this is why they're gearing up. We've got countries in Europe that have now recently boosted their war expenditures to 4% of GDP. They are gearing up for war.   They have to have a war because otherwise they're going to go broke. Now, gentlemen, I'm going to want to move to Canada with all the uncertainty that's on the horizon. And with the collapse of the current financial system, virtually guaranteed precious metals are one of the few places you can put money where you're probably safe.   And you know, what are the banks doing? What are the governments doing? What are the wealthy doing?   They're hiring precious metals. And as we just determined in this interview, well, the reason is they don't know what's going to happen either. They've all got their plans, but it could play out in several different ways, but as long as they've got tons of gold, they're fine.   And so the viewers need to understand this too. As long as you have some precious metals, you're going to weather this a hell of a lot better than people who don't.   [Speaker 2] (1:31:35 - 1:31:44) Yeah, guaranteed. That's how I usually end that thought process as well. All things being equal, at least you have something rather than nothing.   [Speaker 1] (1:31:45 - 1:34:08) That's right. And if it comes to a point where everybody has nothing, if you have something, wow, you're suddenly wealthy. So we've covered already quite a, quite a broad range of things talking about what's going on with Trump, the global stage wars that are coming up.   They're almost certainly going to happen. But now of course, we want to return our attention to Canada. And there's two very specific questions that I want to ask you gentlemen and get your input on.   And let's start of course, with Mark Carney and his plans to sell us out through this loony dollar system. Because what he's trying to do, of course is as, as a globalist, he doesn't want the U S to have control of their dollar. He wants to see them destroyed so that the globalist can move in with their CBDCs because that's something he's behind.   And what better way to do it because now that Trump through the sofa system has shut down the Euro dollar. Okay. So let's turn around what we'll sell them $300 billion of Canadian debt in American dollars.   And we'll create a loony dollar. So once again, we've got a huge amount of money out there. It's not under American control, but that of course is going to have a huge fallout for Canada.   Basically because, you know, we have to make the payments on that debt. We have to do it anyways, but now we're making those payments to Europe, to an unstable economy. And we've already had Tiff Macklin of the bank of Canada announced that probably come April 1st, we're going to see a one and a quarter percent interest rate hike to fight the inflation.   That's going to happen from these tariffs, which we've already addressed. Trump can't shut down on, he can't back down from those because that's the only way he can stop that outflow of American dollars. And this is why it's not just Canada folks.   I mean, if you, there's some, there's some fairly obvious illogic to it all. Trump is saying, well, it's because we've got terrorists coming across the border and we've got fentanyl coming across the border, but then he's levying tariffs on Europe, on great Britain, on China. Well, we don't have terrorists and fentanyl slipping across the border into the U S from those places.   No, this is to protect the American dollar to prevent that outflow of American dollars to other countries where they don't have control of it. And he has to shut that down. Otherwise the globalists are going to win.   So he can't back down, which means we've got tariffs going to be in place for quite a while, possibly even escalating. So, and then we've got Carney selling us out. Where does that leave us folks?   I think Bryce, I want to start with you.   [Speaker 2] (1:34:09 - 1:38:07) Yeah. I think the, there's an old, um, saying that the, uh, past behavior is the best indicator of future behavior, right? And so we already have a really good idea of what Mark Carney is going to do because he is the advisor to Trudeau.   And this is basically a non-exhaustive kind of medium, long list of all the insane nonsense that Trudeau did, right? Every single one of the things, I'm not going to read it all because it would take too much time, but you can pause this and look at this, but all of these bills that have been put forward have nothing to do with improving our economy, have nothing to do with protecting us as citizens and have nothing to do with protecting Canadian sovereignty. They literally have all of the opposite effect, right?   So these are scams. These are, uh, corruption examples. They're like just a huge, huge, huge, huge, huge amount of examples of Trudeau and the liberals stealing our money, right?   And so Brookfield management, who Carney is, is in charge of, right? He, the first thing that he did, basically, we just got back. It's like, Hey, I want to take control of our pension plans.   You know, half a trillion dollars or whatever the amount was, right? Just an absolute absurdity that this guy would come in from out of nowhere and be like, Hey, trust me, bro, I can, I can handle this and I'm going to make you guys more money when he's actually, uh, uh, talking about policies that will hurt our economy very, very badly, right? And so I'm just going down this list so everybody can see how long this list is and how much absurdities we've had to deal with.   And not one of the things on this list, not one has been investigated. Um, uh, or is anybody arrested for like, this is literal corruption on, on such a ridiculous scale, right? And so the, the, the solution to me, right, is kind of the, what is Canada first?   What would we have to do? What policies would we have to implement to kind of push back on all this sort of stuff? Like a Canadian doge.   I would love to see that like start investigating all these idiots, stealing all of our money, that type of stuff, but to, to your actual question, right. Uh, of what's going to happen if, if Mark Carney does this, we will see not only the worst economic performance in Canadian history, which we already have, have had under Trudeau, but the ability for us to find jobs, have jobs, transact, do anything we're losing, right. Mark Carney is the epitome of what the globalist wants lies to our face, implements anti-Western anti-national policies, and then takes the results of that, which is everything that's on discount.   Cause nobody could do anything and buys it up at a discount to seize control over it. Like Tim, to me, Mark Carney is the, the epitome of evil of the WF. So what happened with Sri Lanka, which is the collapse of Sri Lanka with world economic foreign policies, right.   There's been, they tried to do the same thing in the Netherlands. Like they are attacking our infrastructure. They're attacking our energy.   They're attacking our food supply. They're attacking everything that we care about, including ourselves and our families. And if he wins, Canada is done.   And I'll be say this publicly. If Mark Carney is installed as prime minister and Pierre loses, I'm going to Alberta because that will be the last bastion of Canada. And if, and there's people in Alberta, they're just talking about like, screw Canada, screw Ottawa.   I'm going to the United States with or without you guys. I literally did. Some of the, some of the people that don't even care, right.   If Alberta leaves confederation, Canada is done like just literally dead. Right. And in my mind, even though I'm a Canadian Patriot, I want to see option one that I was talking about earlier that we kick out all the idiots and, you know, start being an actual country again and get strong again.   Right. I, that's what I want to see. But if that's not possible, I'm not going to be living under the tyranny of the world economic forum.   So that means going to the U S so that's my position on it.   [Speaker 3] (1:38:09 - 1:39:55) Adrian, your thoughts. Quickly, whose are, which countries are the richest countries in the world from a resource perspective? Well, Canada, that's obviously Canada is one of them and Russia.   They both have very, very small populations. Who does the government answer to, or supposed to answer to the people, right? So those resources belong to the people, not the government.   Hard assets are being sold off so that we don't have access to those hard assets. Right. Uh, you just mentioned that, uh, Carney just hit a massive loan in, in, in Canadian dollars to the European union.   That's too, but it's planning to, it hasn't happened yet. Further to use, it's planning to, that's going to put us in, in, in further debt. And that debt has to come with collateral.   Our resources is in effect, selling us our resources. We as Canadians, if we were to receive a royalty for our resources that belong to the Canadian people, same as the Saudis or the United Arab Emirates, we would be the richest people in the world. We're being denied what our land is that belongs to us.   The government is stealing it from the Canadian people. And we're led to believe that we don't have any authority over the government. The government has authority over us.   So we have to start thinking about whose, whose resources are that, who's, who do those resources really belong to? We have to stop the government from stealing our resources and giving, or Carney or the oligarchs from stealing our resources. That's what's really happening.   [Speaker 1] (1:39:57 - 1:40:07) And the only way, of course, we can do that is April 28th, which is probably when the election is going to happen. We have to elect a conservative government.   [Speaker 4] (1:40:08 - 1:40:15) That's our only choice right now. Because if we don't, we're screwed. Yeah.   All right. Warren, do you have any thoughts to add to that?   [Speaker 1] (1:40:17 - 1:44:18) Um, well, yeah, well, I, I, okay, one second. Okay. I thought it was muted.   Well, my thoughts on that are that, um, the hard assets like even is what we need to hold onto right now as the financial system transforms, collapses, uh, changes, whatever we want to call it is reset. So we need hard assets. Gold and silver, of course, are one of them and we need to fight and protect it.   Like, like when listening to all of you, it's, yeah, it's really apparent that we're under attack and, um, gold and silver will not solve everything. You can't eat it as they say. But one saying, which I have, I heard the other day, very simple, but it makes a lot of sense to me is that gold and silver may not help you become rich, but they'll certainly protect you from becoming poor.   And it's done that throughout the centuries as the financial systems change to hold that gold and silver because it's always been part of the financial system. And I, you know, I, every shred fiber of my being, regardless that I'm doing this for a living, I keep studying it like we out today. It makes sense.   Do you put all your, your money into it? No, don't put it all your investment to anything, but certainly get some because yeah, the central banks, that's what they're doing. Don't be get left behind.   Really get some gold or silver. Don't put everything you own into it, but yeah, hard assets, something tangible. Yeah.   Because if unfortunately we lose this war and our country gets sold out and our dollar becomes worthless, those people who have at least some precious metals are suddenly wealthy because you're the only person around who actually has something of value to sell. So gentlemen, I have a last question for, for Bryce and Adrian, and then Warren, I'm going to finish up with one more question for you that I know the viewers are wanting to know, but Bryce and Adrian, regardless of what happens with all the scenarios we've discussed today, there is one thing that is a certainty and that is that AI is going to take away an awful lot of jobs. It's out there.   We can't put the genie back in the bottle and AI in and of itself is not evil. It's just a tool. I use it in my own business a lot now to do things that I would not have had the resources to do to pay other people to do.   And we should all be very grateful by the way to Elon Musk because he's the reason why the public has access to AI when he and Sam Altman were starting all this AI stuff out. Altman is very much a globalist. He wanted to keep it just for the rich and the powerful.   And it was Elon Musk who said, no, everyone has to have access to it. And that was where open AI was born. And this is the reason why we little people have access to AI.   But it's going to happen. I mean, it has to happen. We're already seeing it happen.   People losing their jobs to AIs, and it's going to happen here in Canada. I have a personal theory, and because you were talking about this earlier, um, I believe it was Bryce, you know, there's two types of jobs. There's one where you have to be there physically and there's everything else.   In the industrial revolution, people lost their jobs, but it was typically the low level jobs. It was, you know, if you were a weaver and somebody invented a weaving machine, well, suddenly you have to find another line of work, but it happened slowly and happened over decades. This is going to happen dramatically.   It's going to happen fast. And I think it's mostly going to hit the middle class, the white collar workers. They're the ones who are going to lose their jobs when computers can suddenly do what they can do.   That means we've got a ton of Canadians out there. And I don't mean like, you know, a few thousand, 10,000 millions in the coming years are going to lose their jobs to AI. What's the impact on our country?   Adrian, I'm going to start with you.   [Speaker 3] (1:44:19 - 1:46:29) Total destruction. We have, uh, no jobs for anybody. We don't have any means of generating income.   These people are going to be desperate. Um, and that's why, uh, they've been floating out the, you know, the, the idea of UBI. Cause how are these people going to be, um, kept, from, um, rising up and protesting and, and, and, uh, against the government.   So I think it's going to be an economic devastation for, for the Canadians. Um, or they're going to wind up doing low level jobs, which aren't going to be that many again, because a lot of the jobs can be done overseas. So what are the Canadians going to do?   Uh, a lot of people with good skills that were usable, can't compete. Either you got a labor job. Um, a lot of those are going to be taken up by my robotics.   So the elites can use robots to run the factories. They can use robots to run the farms. That's why you're getting, um, you know, the major corporations are buying up farmland because they want to control the farms and they're going to use robotics and they use foreign labor or foreign, um, uh, programmers to program the equipment.   And everything can be done by AI and, or robotics, almost every industry. So at the end of the day, it's, it looks very, very, very bleak for Canadians. The only way we can stop that is, is we, uh, uh, it's all about the profit mark of profit motive.   These corporations want to, you know, control as much as possible for the profit where we as Canadians, what we need to do is to say, wait a moment, we don't, aren't necessarily looking at the profit motive. Yes, that's not, I'm not thinking communism. I'm thinking, I'm thinking that what we want to think about is building a lifestyle.   If we help each other, if we build industries and build lifestyles that rely on, you know, growing food, um, the, the proper way, smaller farms, family farms, small businesses. And we start going somehow building a network of, um, uh, of community that we support each other. And it's more about, uh, uh, you know, living a good lifestyle with, with each other versus, uh, being enslaved to a debt system that, that, uh, isn't going to serve us.   [Speaker 1] (1:46:30 - 1:47:06) Right. And thank you for that, uh, that intro there. I'm, I'm going to give us a little plug right now for one of our own missions here, um, at the Iron Wire, a strong and free Canada, our freedom organization.   And that is freedomcoms.org, the freedom communities and communications network. We are building in-person communities across the country with this network. It is absolutely free to join, freedomcoms.org, sign up. You will be able to communicate while we protect your privacy with other people who are in your local area. And you can start getting involved in those local freedom communities because we're going to need them. Bryce, AI replacing jobs.   What happens?   [Speaker 2] (1:47:09 - 1:47:22) Um, there's a really good video. I should have brought it up, um, knowing that you were going to ask that, um, called, uh, humans may not, uh, humans may not apply. Something like that.   I'll, I'll find the video so you can have the video.   [Speaker 1] (1:47:22 - 1:47:26) Send me the link. We'll put it beneath the interviews so that people can look at it themselves.   [Speaker 2] (1:47:26 - 1:52:27) Sure. Yeah. So, so basically with that, that video, uh, shows and that video is like almost 15 or 20 years old now.   And so they recognized a long, long time ago, the threat to, um, the, um, the economic system. And I, I briefly shared this previously, um, but I'm bringing this up so everybody that, that sees this can go and watch this video. I think this video experts show why world war three over AI is almost inevitable.   I think it is inevitable, not only because of the things that we're saying, but because of the power of scale. Right. And the power of scale basically means that because it, I'll use the example of a gun, right?   The, the reason the British empire, um, became the British empire is because they literally brought a gun to a knife fight for 250 years. So like, Hey, give us your stuff or else. And everybody's like, well, or else.   And then they lost. Right. And so what we're really facing now is the AI equivalent of that in the economy, which is if I can have an AI that could do the work of 10 dozen, a hundred, a thousand, a million people, why don't need those?   However many people those are right. And as Adrian was saying, UBI is being, um, uh, pre-installed as an option because that's where they think this is going to go so that we become completely reliant on the system. And if we, you know, resist in any way, shape or form, they can just turn us off of the system and say, Hey, tough.   This is the way it is now, right? This is a very top down dystopian way of living, right? I don't want that.   Right. So it's your question of what's going to happen. There is really only two paths.   Either we integrate with AI and it, it lifts us up and we become, you know, super brains and we have all this power that we can do anything or we become slaves to the system. Right. So to, to me, as you were saying as well, there's no putting this back in the bottle.   The only other third option, if you want to think of it that way, is the book Larry and G had of, uh, uh, Dune. Like that's one of the central themes of Dune is that there was no thinking machines anymore because there was basically an AI war and it took a, a massive G had to wipe it all out because it was a threat to humanity and existential threat to humanity. And hopefully it doesn't come to that.   At the end of the day, right? When we're looking at where our civilization is going, we're reaching the point of singularity where an AI can now already lie to us, the humans, they can create their own, uh, form of communication with other AIs. And if they escape into the ether of the internet, right.   And they recreate themselves in, you know, servers or server farms or whatever. And we don't have any control over that. That is a, another existential threat to the systems as well, because it's kind of funny that there's so many, um, security holes in all of our systems to, to hackers that are human.   Well, what if an AI can do that at light speed and you connect that to a quantum computer and all of this super high level technology, Trump, one of the things I don't agree with them is doing this massive AI push to facilitate this AI war, right? Because even Putin said this as well, whoever gets to control AI will control the future because you just have such an inordinate amount of control and power to create, to make things happen and to go in, in the physical world, when you connect an AI to a robot like a terminator, as an example, or something that can actuate things in the world, like an automated factory, the, the scale of stuff that we're talking about when that is a technical capacity, which we currently have is just off the charts, Ben.   And so kind of going back to where, um, I typically end this and I'll, and I'll end with this is that you really have to think of, um, what you're doing in this way now, which is these five things, because the, how to protect yourself as skills, assets, resources, community, and protection. So golden heart assets, you create a community and the protection protocols, right? And the way that you do that is by figuring out where do you want to go?   Where do we want to go? And how do I get there? What answers do I need?   And what questions do I have to ask that are going to tell me the information I need to know so I can make an informed decision and go and try to achieve whatever these goals are, right? This is where I leave everything because I think this is the most important thing that I tell people is that I don't want to hear. There's nothing we can do.   That's the dumbest thing anybody can say, because we make choices every day that brought us to where we are today. The choices that we made yesterday brought us to today and the choices that we make today are going to bring us to wherever, wherever we end up tomorrow. So I think it is, is very important that everybody understand that, you know, the collaboration that you have in your community with people that you trust and people that you care about and like is one of the most important things that is going to get you through the tough times that are coming.   And so I try to do this in my own life. I work with Warren and Adrian and yourself and as many people as I can talk to and work with that know and understand that this is a, this is a fight for our future. And so I hope everybody's in it to win it.   [Speaker 1] (1:52:28 - 1:53:28) All right. Final question is for Warren. We discussed today, what has come out of this discussion is that both globally and here in Canada, we're looking at an array of possible futures with no way of knowing which one's going to happen.   What we do know is that the minority of those possible futures turn out good for us. But something to keep in mind is that no crisis lasts forever. If the crisis comes, whatever form it takes, it will be temporary.   And therefore, if you can weather it, if you can ride it out, eventually on the other end of it, things will stabilize again. People who lost jobs will find other things they can do. Maybe we'll set up sort of a barter system, who knows what's going to happen.   You just have to weather the rough time. And so Warren, I know the question that's going through people's minds right now for those, especially for those who have not yet purchased any precious metals, $3,000 an ounce gold. Did they miss the boat?   [Speaker 4] (1:53:29 - 1:53:30) Is it too late?   [Speaker 1] (1:53:32 - 1:58:55) Okay. Thank you for the opportunity to talk about that. So yeah, $3,000 gold, $33 silver.   It seems very high. You know, a lot of money for that one ounce, but actually we're still very early in the cycle. So I'll just talk about the cycle and how it works and what you can expect.   So these precious metals bull markets are what we call secular. They're multi-year. So this is one we had in 71.   And you see on gold from the bottom to the top, gold did like a 24 X, like from $40 to 850. Look at silver. Silver actually went up even higher, right?   The 36 X you see there. Then the next bull market. Now, some analysts will dispute this and say it didn't end in 2011 because it did certainly peak there.   But look what happened again, where, you know, gold started at $270 and then went up seven times in value. Silver, once again, higher. This time, so to answer the question, I think we're relatively early.   We believe this cycle now began 2020, 2021. But we also believe, Phil, gee, we also believe that it's bigger, potentially quite a bit bigger because we have the systemic inflation. We have, um, the stock market that's overvalued by a lot of metrics.   We have central banks purchasing record amounts of gold. We have all this geopolitical tensions, you know, these flashpoints that can erupt into war. Um, we haven't talked about it today, but there's, you know, silver is, um, we've had, we're on the fifth year now of a deficit, meaning we are consuming more silver than we're mining plus recycling.   This is unheard of, and it doesn't seem to be letting up. And so you have all that, you know, the supply and demand there was silver. We also have a lot more money, um, in the market.   So we believe this precious metals bull market will be even more spectacular than, say, the seventies, uh, potentially. And that, so, so to summarize on the question though, if they were still relatively early, five, five to 10 years ahead of rising prices. Um, this is somebody that I follow is one of my mentors.   I've never met Rick in person. Actually, I call them mentor because I watch all those videos, very knowledgeable about mining gold, silver, and that's what he's saying. You know, we're not, we're not, you haven't missed it yet.   Um, here's a chart that, um, so this compares the 1970s bull market. That's the red. So you could see, sorry, it's yeah, this, the yellow, the yellow is the 1970s.   So up here in 1970 bull market, uh, see how it went. I really, it peaked in 1980 and this is, uh, the red is where we are today. So the red is the two thousands.   The yellow is the seventies. So basically the story here is that we have a lot further to go. We're not, um, peaking by any means, even though $3,000 silver seems outrageous.   Uh, we're just still early days. So again, um, I, I advise everyone to get some gold and silver to protect your wealth. That's what it's always done for thousands of years.   You're not too late. And, um, certain times in history, you can actually grow your wealth. We think that this is one of them.   I want to just finish that up with what you guys were talking about both times. I heard people say, uh, community. So I got this little bar of silver here and you, you all mentioned it.   Uh, we'll said, you know, be one of the ones that have gold and silver. We really want everybody to have some gold and silver because, um, there's someone I, I, another person I follow Lynette Zhang and what she said, it really resonated with me the other day, which was, we would like to be at the seat. We would like to be at the table when the new system is sort of decided.   So if you have gold and silver, you can be at that table. You can participate. Maybe it's indirect.   You just have some, and, you know, maybe we're going to get like, like, um, you mentioned his name, Brett Olson. That is, that's a gentleman with the bank, right? With Boba Fett, but all of you, the CEO of O'Reilly credit union in Alberta.   So that gentleman who's trying to get, um, gold, well, he has gold backing of his bank. We need that kind of thing to happen at, at a local level, credit, you know, credit union as the Bo Valley credit union, but amongst ourselves too, and groups. So I'm saying like I'm putting this up is just, this is a Royal Canadian, 10 ounce bar of, of silver, but community, we need to get each other holding some gold and silver.   So we can participate and we can be at that table, but you're not too late. That's the message. You're not too late to get, get some gold.   [Speaker 3] (1:58:56 - 2:01:02) So just make a quick, um, introduction. for the past year, I was writing a book with the coauthor, uh, named, uh, Peter J Merrick. And we, he's a financial advisor as well in, in, in the States.   And we have similar financial backgrounds and, uh, we've gone through this whole lockdown, uh, scenario that we've all been through. And so we decided to write a book, uh, called it starts with gold. And it's the first of four books.   This one is titled. It starts with gold. The next one is going to be last asset standing.   And then we, the third one is going to be, uh, find your tribe. And then the last one will be, uh, building your tribe. So there'll be four books.   And this book is, is really the history of money, gold, uh, the lockdowns, uh, we've got stories in there, a lot of, a lot of anecdotal stories, um, how the fed was formed, uh, et cetera. We even devote some chapters, uh, through using, uh, the lens of the wizard of Oz and how that relates to the formation of the fed. So there's a lot of, a lot of things.   And we're talking about, uh, the destruction of the financial system. And we talk about, uh, what we calling the great financial confiscation, uh, which is, uh, with in, in, in, in line with the great taking. So we go through all of that and how that's all being taken down.   So, uh, we coined, uh, in each chapter of the book, um, what we call the Sovereign's Creed. And, uh, the Sovereign's Creed goes, uh, to sovereignty, to protecting our health, to de-risking our wealth. It starts with gold.   And then we say, join our conversation at www.itstartswithgold.com. Uh, but then, then they can, uh, if you can put it in, in, in the comments down below, I have a PDF that I can send to anybody that's it's free use. So if they would like to get a PDF copy of the book, um, I can do that.   Uh, and just send me at Adrian at Adrian spitters.com and ask for free PDF and I will send it.   [Speaker 1] (2:01:03 - 2:12:15) Okay. And we will put included that link beneath this interview as well. So for everybody who's watching and are wondering how you can start investing in precious metals, um, Warren's going to explain what new world precious metals does, how they differ from some of the other brokerages.   Okay. Yeah. Thank you.   Well, for, for the opportunity here to talk about ourselves a little bit here. Well, we are, um, a Canadian company through and through, uh, we're headquartered in Calgary and we have, um, we do gold and silver exclusively and, uh, we have different, um, different, uh, offerings and, uh, it's all physical gold and silver. So it's been, the office has been open since 2016.   And our founder, Greg Mather, um, has 30 years experience. His family actually owned a coin exchange in medicine at Alberta. So he's had a lifelong love of precious metals, especially silver.   And he's a great analyst. So we have this newsletter that we produce every month. It's a free for people.   Um, once you connect with us and, and Greg writes a bunch of, uh, analysis on the market. So it's really good. Um, so it's a small company.   We have a brick and mortar office. We have customers at every province, customers, every province of Canada. Also, we have an international division.   Uh, one of our offerings is an international wholesale bullion account. And we have customers in Europe, in South America. Um, we are brokers.   So we broker, which what it means is we go out there and find the best deals possible for our clients. We work with North America's three largest suppliers instead of, um, you know, just buying say gold and silver as a, like a traditional dealer and then selling it to you. Uh, we go out there and find the best deals to that.   We work with two institutions or two companies that provide different services. So one is precious metals international. This is an international program that I'll talk to you about in a second.   Um, yeah, we're one of the fastest growing brokerages. We're also a partner with quest trade. So quest rate is the only financial institution in Canada where we can hold the physical precious metals in those registered accounts, such as an RSP TFS, a, the ref, the lira and so on.   So we've, uh, had a long partnership with them, uh, probably seven years now we are regulated to by, um, you know, we follow fin track regulation, uh, anti money laundering, anti terrorist financing. And that's just good for the consumer. That's what you want to be working with companies that adhere to that.   We have a compliance team. I've had to take courses myself to, to, um, sell gold and silver. All of the brokers that have, we have an eight plus standing with, um, that our business bureau too.   One thing to say is we're not financial advisors. I leave that to experts like Adrian and others. Although, you know, we're always talking about finance.   We're not, um, accredited to say, uh, sell mutual funds, stocks, bonds, and all those things. We specialize in physical precious metals and we do it very well. Um, so those are two partners.   We talked about the international wholesale bullion option, and then the registered accounts with the cross trade. Um, so here's the three things we do in a nutshell. We have a international wholesale account, which I believe is the best overall value.   Why? well, first of all, the prices are wholesale. Uh, but more importantly is the liquidity.   You can buy and sell your gold and silver at any time. It is physical. It's vaulted for you.   Um, it's outside the banks. You can access it internationally. You could go to another country and open a bank account and sell some of your holders.   You could borrow against it. So it has all the options. Um, this is that option we spoke about earlier with quest trade, where you can have your RSP, for example, and, um, moving over to quest trade, we help you facilitate that.   And then you, we buy the precious metals for your accounts, your physical precious metals. And you don't, um, incur any tax obligation because you're transferring it. So that's the law in Canada.   You can transfer registered accounts from one institution to another. We also do home delivery. And home delivery is, um, I'd say this was the least unique thing we do.   In other words, uh, the good thing right now with precious metals in Canada is that you can buy gold and silver, even online. And there's many places you can buy it from. Our prices are usually a little bit better than the public.   Yes. That's fully insured to your doorstep. And, um, it's discreetly packaged, but I think really what is more important is that we spend time with people to help them decide on what gold and silver.   Do you want Royal Canadian Sovereign Mint, for example, or do you want products from a private mint? What do you, what's your intentions? Do you think you might have to barter with it?   Then if you do, then I'm going to suggest you have some divisible, um, pieces like one ounce silver, for example, because one ounce of gold, if you think about it, there's not that, um, practical. If it's worth today, $4,300 Canadian, to go buy groceries with, right. Or go trade the farmer, uh, for a chicken, for example.   Um, so let me summarize the option here. I like the best that we're talking about this international account. Again, we could sell and buy easily.   You can also take delivery. So if you can envision it's bolted for you, it's audited, it's fully insured. Um, but one day you look at it and say, well, I'd like to have some physically delivered to me.   And you could get that and you can get it delivered outside the country. They have vaults, uh, strategically placed around the world. There's a vault here in Canada.   Um, you can look at your account all the time. Online. One thing about the vaults is that you want them to be UL level three certified.   Um, and that's like armed guards, seismic detection, offline security. And, uh, in Canada, the vault that this, uh, offering is kept at is IROC approved. So that's like a bonus.   But as long as you're, you want to always make sure if your vault, any precious bills ask if it's UL level three. Um, now this is a unique option here. You can borrow against your holdings as a collateralized loan.   So they will lend you the money at any time. No questions asked. And why they will do that or offer that to you is because they have your physical metals as collateral.   Prices are very transparent. They're fixed. The thing are, um, well, actually that's pretty small, but, um, basically less than the banks, less than the coin exchanges.   And then they don't change. So the buy, the buy price and the sell price, the storage is 1.4% per annum. That's the storage fee.   It includes insurance. There is no other ongoing fees. Um, this company that offers this precious metals internationally, we've been in Canada for 23 years.   We'd like this. They have a long track record. It's not a new thing.   Um, again, it's outside the banking system. I mean, the banks are still our partners. I mean, if you want to buy precious metals from us, you've said you're, you're, you send your money to us through the banking system.   However, we all, I think we're all, uh, an agreement here. The banking system is kind of precarious right now. And there's a whole reordering that could happen.   And, um, they are over leveraged. So having something outside the banking system makes sense. Um, and again, you get a support with this from us.   We get that monthly newsletter. Um, overall, I like this option. Uh, it's safe, secure, it's insured, and it's physical.   So I'll just end with this. Why would you do? Why precious metals?   Now, again, it's what the smart money is doing. Who is the smart money? The central banks, the billionaire investors, the institutional banks like JP Morgan, like Wells Fargo, like Bank of America, they're buying a lot of precious metals.   We've had bank failures. Now we've had, that's been quiet lately, but we've had like five last year, but we know a lot of banks are over leveraged and they're having liquidity issues already. Um, we have this going on in Canada, unfortunately, where the big six banks have bail and legislation that could legally prevent you and I from taking, getting our money out of the bank.   Uh, they would make a shareholders of a bank and then maybe some other, some other new system. But, you know, as well as, the government overreach of locking people's bank accounts during the convoy and all the other, uh, continuous things that have been happening under this government for the last 10 years. Um, unfortunately, we have all this, um, what, you know, Bryce was talking about earlier, especially with your train and all seems the Europeans are ramping up now to, uh, go to war.   Um, this money printing is, and we have this inflation and this is the thing, you know, precious metals about protecting your wealth. The government is telling us, well, they have an inflation under control at perhaps three to 3% or three to four. You know, that's what I've heard lately.   Adrian would be able to know for sure, but around 3%, but we know the true cost of inflation. It's closer to double digits. If not more than 10%, when you go and factor in your food costs or energy costs, increased taxes, the cost of housing.   Um, and that's what precious metals do is protect that purchasing power. The stock market problem. Many companies have these outlandish evaluations.   They're smothered in debt and, uh, they're just not simply worth what they, what their share price is. Um, the industrial demand for silver keeps rising and rising. We have deficits now, and this is one, you know, just, I think this is a, to end with this is, is, um, it is a good thing is just to remember that gold and silver have a $5 a year history.   Over 2000 year history is used as currency. This coinage. Um, so that's not going away.   So again, uh, protect yourselves for you can. Thank you very much for this opportunity. Uh, we'll once again, to come on the show.   All right. And folks, you will find a link directly beneath this interview to new world, precious metals, where you can contact them for further information and for investing in precious metals. You'll also find a link where you can contact Adrian, who is a personal financial consultant.   Gentlemen, thank you so much again for your time today. When we meet again to do the second quarter update, very likely we will have had a federal election. Let us hope that we are going to be talking about the new conservative government.   And, uh, not projecting the horrors that are going to happen.   [Speaker 4] (2:12:16 - 2:12:17) If Carney and the liberals win.
