This is the first time I have seen/watched you, and I'm very impressed. Not only very sound, substantial analysis but your presentation is more than professional, it's delightful.
I love what I take as a southern Ontario accent and presence. Not what you might expect from a Western Canadian, but my maternal roots lie in Kitchener, Waterloo.
Prez Trump called him from Florida to wish him well. Scott did not recognize the number and let it go to voice mail.
A little later he checked and was appalled he had let a presidential call go to vm. DJT left a longish message and told him to call back - and left his number.
Scott Adams was too shy to call back and disturb the president, but several hours later the phone rang again. Sure enough it was the president, and they had a chat. The Donald added pointedly at the end that if Scott needed ANY help at all he would make sure he got it. I am hoping it is the newest in alt meds to fight cancer. We shall see. There’s a lot of chatter out there.
Weds mornings are free ever since the Electronic Intafada moved their weekly live stream to Thursdays.
Were you surprised that PM Carney (and Anita Anand) joined with France & the UK in condemning Israel's starvation of Palestinians? Meanwhile Poilievre/Lantsman were outraged over the shooting at the Israeli Embassy in DC Thursday and, of course, labelling it Anti-Semetic?
Love your “new” program. We move between Poland and Canada. Politically there are “woke and WEF…i.e. Carney” tendencies in both countries and so we are worried. Compare Toronto with Warsaw….hands down that Warsaw is 100% easier, cheaper and more beautifully maintained with WORKING infrastructure. No poor/ill people sleeping on the subways and street car benches. So at this (fleeting) moment in time, Warsaw wins.
You have been my touchstone for sanity for more than five years. Will watch anytime you make a video. And PS, thanks for not taping in your bedroom as many podcasters do—woefully unprofessional!
Speaking of Ukraine, I was visiting Miami a few months ago for the first time (South Beach) and went to Key Biscayne to rent a boat. The owner of the business was there and we struck up a conversation. He was a long time resident (originally from Brazil) and owned other businesses, one of them a high-end boutique realty company in Key Biscayne. We were talking about how much more expensive real estate was everywhere since covid and even more so in Miami. He said, even so, every time he gets a multi-million dollar waterfront listing, it's immediately snatched up by an all-cash buyer from Ukraine, always someone from the Ukrainian government. I said, "What do you mean, every new multi-million waterfront listing is bought by a Ukrainian bureaucrat??" He replied, "Yes, the word is out with them, they have the cash, and they're ready with the highest offer." We both agreed that this was sickening as that was the American taxpayers money that had been sent for their 'brave patriotic war effort' by our idiot congress (or the selling of our weapon systems on the black market) that was buying mansions in Miami for Ukrainian criminals. All at the same time that Americans can now not even afford a modest home of their own.
The Ukraine has been considered the most corrupt place in the world for many years now. Corruption is rampant in all countries. Sadder for us, my husband and myself, is that the global economy and global finances all stem from the old headquarters of London England and their banks. May I recommend “Breaking History Ep 96: The Missed Chance of 1867 and the Bering Strait” on YouTube this podcast from Canadian Patriot Press this month, a few days ago. History we were never taught. *Pertaining to OUR PRESENT STRUGGLE for PERSONAL SPACE and ACCESS TO NATURE!
Correct, the City of London district within London. Acts as its own private government/financial authority (in reality) even though, technically, its status is that of a public authority.
I am with you and no longer believe that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt country's in the world today. Just look at our, so called, "democracy's" in the west and their actions. Look at their policies, and their, "we can do as we please, when we please, and how we please", rhetoric and action's. Look at the Net Zero transparency of their use of the people's purse. Then open your eyes to their, "don't you dare", speak, reject, or act, against, our open disrespect, defenistration, de-banking and openly hostile words, policies, laws, and actions, toward their own citisen's. The very same citisens who are forced to pay their bloated wages, fund their wasteful spending, as they funnelling the peoples taxdollars to their wealthy Financial Asset Management Corporation's, Large Bank's, and Pension fund's, to use as they see fit. No, Ukraine has nothing on the Western "Democracies" of today as to the corruption, misuse of taxpayer funds, lawfare, or the destruction of our freedom, rights, the rule of law, not to mention the complete rot within once trusted Institutions, at every level of Government, in all Western Post National States of the greedy, disgraceful, and demonic Progressive Ideologues and elitest bankers.
I am absolutely gutted at the news from Scott. Although I have been a Dilbert fan forever, I “discovered” Scott when Trump was elected in 2016. At the time, I had bought into all the propaganda about Trump, and couldn’t understand how any self respecting person would be a fan. So I read Scott’s book “Win Bigly” with curiosity. It changed my mind! I then discovered his Periscope livestream. In 2020, I became a daily listener to his podcast. For several months he had a nightly livestream as well, to help people through the worst of the lockdowns. I have rarely missed an episode since, and he feels like a friend.
You absolutely could do a fantastic “Coffee with Trish” podcast, and I would be happy to listen. But don’t overcommit yourself. I have a feeling it’s a lot more work than it looks to do it daily.
Firstly, I love all that you do as well as the values that you stand for and work towards.
And this is the first time I've felt compelled to "fact check" you. In relation to Canada's shortage of affordable housing, the primary reason for the shortage in Vancouver and Toronto is NOT Airbnb, although this may be a contributing factor.
The main reason is TRANS NATIONAL CRIMINAL MONEY LAUNDERING, mainly via Chinese fentanyl/illicit drug proceeds. Investigative Journalist SAM COOPER estimates that $20BIL!! has been laundered into Cdn real estate.
Also, criminal MORTGAGE FRAUD at Cdn banks, estimated to be at least 1 in 4 Toronto mortgages, is fueling the demand/affordability problem and crime problem.
Fake employment docs are used to get a Cdn bank mortgage, and the mthly mortgage is then paid with proceeds of crime and rental income.
Air BnB units may be a symptom of the problem. But the CAUSE is trans-national crime; fentanyl/drugs, mortgage fraud, money laundering, and no laws and enforcement to stop this illegal activity.
SAM COOPER is the internationally respected Expert on this topic abd he would be a great person to interview on a future podcast.
So glad you have come around on the whole Royals thing. You previous love for them always baffled me as someone who is such a critical thinker.
The kings whole speech word for word is a Carney Speech.
Thank you for these mid week podcasts they will help us stay sane

Just saw a Scott Adam’s post on X.

A little later he checked and was appalled he had let a presidential call go to vm. DJT left a longish message and told him to call back - and left his number.

I mean is this guy for real?

This is my first time viewing one of your videos - I am a brand new subscriber...enjoyed, thank you!
Thanks Trish!

Yes, I really enjoy the mid week Trish Wood perspective on things! And love that it’s video. A twice weekly or daily should would be great!!!
Great news about Harold!!!
Mid week is good. Every day would be great. Who is assisting you ? This seems like an enormous commitment.

Trish,

With thks and gratitude for all that you do.
Good connects. But I think Trish knows who Sam is!
Are you really supporting the video and commentary of Jimmy Dore? 🧐
when one is bombarded by so many POVs and there's just not enough time to read it all, it's prudent to prune the obvious!
I agree!
Which is why Trish has, wisely IMO included Jimmy Dore and not one of the Gov't funded propagandists and empty bloviators.
By the way, rather than empty ad-hominem attacks, can you please use critical thinking to explain why you have a problem with Dore's POV?
I'm genuinely interested in your thoughts and POV.
Are you really supporting censorship of smart people with whom we might disagree on a few issues? I don't believe in purity tests.
