Sam Cooper

All right, everyone, welcome to another episode of The Sovereign Sphere.

I'm Karla Treadway and back with us today is legendary Sam Cooper.

Welcome back.

It's great to see you again, Carla.

And yet at the same time, Wall Street analysts in the past two weeks have said, including, I believe, a former U.S. Treasury official, coincident with China's bond purchases diving, Canada's have skyrocketed.

So there was a Wall Street analyst that memorably quoted, I think his quote was, China's bond purchases have cratered, but they've gone to the other China, which is Canada.

So what's going on there? Is China sort of secretly through whatever, it's many tycoons, it's many real estate developers, If you're listening to Sam Cooper in the Bureau, it's many narcos and secret agents that do business in Canada.

Are they buying bonds through Canadian banks to hold them for China to assist, you know, let's say, second-order thinking? What if China attacks Taiwan in 2027, which some people think President Xi is preparing for? The U.S.

They have a 50% mortgage because that establishes their credit in the country.

Sam Cooper released his book Willful Blindness in 2021, exposing the money laundering going into the Vancouver housing market.

The Vancouver housing market peaked in the first half of 2022 since the peak.

Home sales have been dropping and now prices.

a number of different stories.

The one that I'm leaning toward in terms of being the truth as to why she stepped down came from Sam Cooper, and he said that she had expressed concerns about CCP influence within the BC Conservative Party.

Do you have any knowledge of that or any idea why she stepped down from her leadership position?

I believe there was, from the moment she became leader of that party, when she won that majority runoff vote, there were forces within that party that wanted her destroyed.

Sometimes I miss it if I'm sick or traveling or whatever, but generally every day.

And you can read my material on Blaze Media and the Post-Millennial.

Yeah, guys, listen, when it comes to Canadian commentators, for my investigative journalism, I go to Sam Cooper.

For my commentators, it's David Creighton, Payman Iskari, Josh Udall at Elevate Report.

You know, and I see other, other independents out there doing.

I know Sam Cooper does incredible work.

Yeah.

Right? I mean...

You gotta take a look at it.

Sam Cooper, take a look at it.

Do you know what I mean? Just have a look.

Just, just, just, just lift the covers just a little bit on the Stelco thing.

The label gun experts.

Sam Cooper has covered this lots.

Crime crisis in First Nation indigenous reserves have become lawless and crime infested.

They've been infiltrated by a lot of the transnational crime.

A lot of young, young people from India coming in here, no jobs, no future, and they get in, in, uh, indoctrinated into the crime syndicates here in the trucking industry.

Harman Banghu shared that story, that they're, they're all throughout the trucking industry, right from the ports to the distribution and, and selling licenses, everything.

Like it's, it's absolutely atrocious here, and the mainstream media again doesn't see anything, right? It's up to the independents like us and Sam Cooper and that to go and do these interviews.

And look at the budget they have.

It's important to get all the information you can, and this happens to be the best place.

Sam Cooper, the author of Willful Blindness, predicted that 30% of the value of Vancouver real estate was due to money laundering.

Could this explain why the Vancouver market has remained buoyant so far? And lights are shining on the money laundering in real estate.

If this causes money to be laundered elsewhere, could the floor under Vancouver real estate disappear?

I mean, you know, obviously at maybe a lower price range than West Van, where, you know, they were selling for $10 million.

But it has a psychological impact in that people feel, oh, you know, people are buying those houses, and I'm okay to pay a much smaller amount for a smaller place.

So there's a dollar volume coming in, and it definitely was coming in, and Sam Cooper is right about that.

And it's backed up by at least two different commissions that were done and published.

It's going on between China and America.

Yeah, we had Sam Cooper on, a journalist here, and he didn't- he said it was not a kinetic war, but it was an economic war that's being waged right now.

And, uh, and maybe explain-

Totally

... there's three large regions of the world.

No.

We had Sam Cooper on, and we asked him that question as well.

And, and Sam Cooper, I don't know if you know Sam Cooper.
