Green Party BC Green Party John Horgan and they are the official party now. [00:27:37] Speaker A: And NDP they call uni bargaining power they need to hold. So the odds of them gaining them. [00:28:16] Speaker B: Gaining is more yeah so. [00:28:21] Speaker A: Yeah interesting Leader he will stay on negotiations. [00:28:42] Speaker B: Negotiators outgoing leader. [00:28:50] Speaker A: We don't know. Everything is in a state of flux right now. [00:29:03] Speaker B: Gregory.

So threat Real threat. Real threat. [00:31:20] Speaker B: So Trump reaction there is a very strong likelihood. You never know Pushback from within the US CEO White House Press Secretary I must read this for you. For me twice the smiles happy six months to your wonderful twins. [00:32:19] Speaker A: Thank you so much. Thank you so much. Means a lot. Means a lot. [00:32:23] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:25] Speaker A: Thank you so much.

Earlier in the morning from 2019 onwards technically confidential supply agreement supporting party cabinet table at least strong minority governance structure officials committee level. [00:34:52] Speaker A: Game. [00:35:47] Speaker B: Economy to see there is a possibility executive orders he wants to project. [00:36:27] Speaker A: Yeah. So let's see Donald Trump the threat is real. [00:36:31] Speaker B: The threat is real. Toss up Riding Manijarahisi. [00:36:57] Speaker A: Yeah. So a liberal Meadwar they call Stephen Furr Tracy Gray Joe Conservative incumbent. So Santali point sat percent the Santali point jar percent. [00:37:23] Speaker B: 170 votes. [00:37:30] Speaker A: So it's still being considered too close to call. [00:37:33] Speaker B: Right. Less than 4% of the voter. The writing is too close to call in many writings especially in BC 5610-915-604-5610915 they call Kirk to see federal election results. [00:38:46] Speaker A: That is 604-561-0915. [00:38:58] Speaker B: Good morning to Sierra. [00:39:00] Speaker C: Good morning. [00:39:02] Speaker A: Good morning. [00:39:09] Speaker C: Thank you. Thank you so much. And moment change Hoga Conservative. [00:40:11] Speaker B: Black gold. [00:40:12] Speaker C: Black gold. Thank you. [00:40:16] Speaker A: Thank you very much. Black gold so natural gas. [00:40:40] Speaker B: On air number 604-561-0915 hr pan socat0. [00:41:08] Speaker A: So this is most likely going to be Liberal plus NDP government coalition confidence and supply agreement. In all probability they need only four more seats for a majority government. So statistically speaking, majority. Sarkar Bananda chance minority. It's not going to be a coalition. In all probability it will be confidence in supply arrangement between Liberals and NDP block. [00:41:54] Speaker B: Exactly. Razor thin majority BC the NDP Green party Confidence and supply agreement. Exactly. Confidence and supply agreements. [00:42:19] Speaker A: Generally Liberals they call Char Sita from majority. [00:42:29] Speaker C: This is the first time according to my experience what I have gone through all this. I don't know if you guys feel the Same or not. 30 to 4 40% and all they did was they asked somebody else Promises nobody Discussed it but it is 30 to 40% they just voted online and they they Conservative Party new immigrants that's what I want to share. [00:43:44] Speaker B: Thank you. [00:44:17] Speaker A: National data narrative platforms easily distinguish Karna Sokhanisi the boss RA voters Yes they were undecided till the very end. [00:44:47] Speaker B: Hello. Hello Handy Handy Hello. [00:45:07] Speaker C: They. [00:45:40] Speaker B: Both made money thank you Conservative Party because Polya clearly wants to stay on as a leader yeah. [00:46:07] Speaker A: Liberal party in Jataya. [00:46:54] Speaker B: 51St 8 or narrative opponent Western world Conservatives Joe Rogan the podcast well connected because of his work experience Europe international organizations Donald Trump this could now lead to a situation global economic leader after this election victory. [00:48:02] Speaker A: Conservatives for the larger part of last two years so everything is broken Canada is broken Canada is broken Donald Trump. [00:49:12] Speaker B: Conservatives capital gains tax which rollback inclusion rate Conservatives carbon tax Conservative so ace point of view right thing at the right time. [00:50:24] Speaker A: Green Party federally minority Sarkaran Jeff confidence in supply agreement provincially Green Party correct in our confidence and supply agreement. [00:51:12] Speaker B: I think that's the theme. [00:51:47] Speaker C: Never trust a liberal 10 years after 10 years never trust a Liberal Anyway that guy just ruined the party but the biggest problem with that guy was he targeted a man not a party and what Liberals did they change the man but then Liberals played the game they took the man off the table they brought a new man and the game changed Canadian population what I observed Canadian population memory It's a very short term memory Very short term memory Then people forget about it. I am just super scared we are in this ride for now next four years let's see we need some new new change for for betterment so that that's all my takeaway. [00:54:42] Speaker B: Impact jobs immigration Immigration just intruder carbon tax Rather than targeting the party the Conservatives and peer Poly have targeted Justin Trudeau Inflation with just inflation can they see Vasuji Sadi Aglay Kalrani just winder Hondalji on other girls from there Honda Sabi. [00:56:01] Speaker C: A very unfortunate mandate the third election same situation Liberal with NDP support or NDP support experienced leader that is my concern thank. [00:56:39] Speaker B: You thank you. [00:56:56] Speaker A: That'S so bad personally feel second thing forever Canadians. [00:57:46] Speaker C: CDN they. [00:57:47] Speaker A: Issue totally different CDN Canadian all over. [00:57:50] Speaker C: The example. [00:57:53] Speaker A: So Canadians. [00:58:19] Speaker B: Thank you. [00:59:25] Speaker A: I. [00:59:25] Speaker B: Don'T know. [01:00:00] Speaker A: National polls Liberals the majority Conservatives the majority influencer election system Day Obi Sanu reconsider Karnapanya. [01:00:59] Speaker B: Elections Canada that could be going on right now so I think that needs to be considered Certainly. [01:01:35] Speaker C: Louis especially mechanic. [01:01:53] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:02:07] Speaker C: Michael. [01:02:13] Speaker B: J. [01:03:30] Speaker C: Carbon taxi right away targeted take around the exomerical system blame Gamey Katigay share. [01:05:22] Speaker B: So that was also one of the reasons campaign private contractors campaign. [01:06:00] Speaker A: Plus public service attrition ultimate in the long run Public services. [01:06:36] Speaker B: Overall campaign messaging. Ten years of the Trudeau government. Now Trudeau is not there. It is not a Trudeau government anymore. So advertising repetition, that makes a lot of difference. There is a reason why messages and ads are repeated. [01:07:22] Speaker A: In all fairness. [01:07:28] Speaker B: Yes. [01:07:29] Speaker A: No pun intended. If not Justin Trudeau, then who? [01:07:52] Speaker B: Full marks to Mark Carney. Full marks to the Liberal Party strategists. Strong minority government. [01:08:20] Speaker A: The major takeaway. Unfortunate takeaway. [01:08:27] Speaker B: That's the problem. [01:08:31] Speaker A: Strategy wins. [01:08:32] Speaker B: Issues don't big data. [01:08:34] Speaker A: That's the. Yes, that's the takeaway. And which is very unfortunate. Which is very unfortunate. [01:08:49] Speaker B: Last caller, line one. The anonymous caller. Hello line one one. Hello, line one to Sierra. Hello. I think Liberals 168 seats Conservatives 144 block Quebecort 23 NDP 7 Green Party 1 Elections Canada 99.26% of the polls report Elections Canada website website it's important up to date information Canada the website election night traffic handle then that needs. [01:10:20] Speaker A: To be looked at Deloitte Review Karangay Report. [01:10:40] Speaker B: So mic drop. [01:10:46] Speaker A: Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
