Verdict Open

Public and private pension systems in Western countries (US/Canada) will go bankrupt within 5 to 10 years.

No major US or Canadian public pension system has gone bankrupt. Social Security's trust fund is projected to deplete around 2033-34, which would cut benefits to roughly 77-81% rather than end them, and the CPP is rated sustainable by its Chief Actuary. The window runs to 2035.

Immigrant shares of population in Australia, Canada, Germany and other Western countries will keep rising, producing more ethnic tension and anti-immigrant protests.

Anti-immigrant protests did grow: 'March for Australia' rallies turned violent days after the video (31 Aug 2025), and the 13 Sept 2025 Unite the Kingdom rally in London drew up to 150,000 (26 officers injured).

Britain's Online Safety Act (criminalizing 'bad' online speech) will be replicated throughout the Western world.

Online safety and age-verification rules are spreading (Australia's under-16 social media ban from 10 Dec 2025; EU and French measures), but Canada's Online Harms Act died in Jan 2025 and the US has not followed, so it has not passed 'everywhere'. Early signs partly for.

How calls are found and checked

Each transcript was read in full by an AI model to pull out predictions, with the exact quote and timestamp. Each one was then checked with web search against events up to the update date, with sources linked.

How the hit rate works

Spot a mistake? Report it. Hit rate = (came true + ½ partly) ÷ resolved calls. Claims that were already underway when he made them are left out. Open calls haven't reached a verdict; Unresolvable ones are too vague ever to check. Verdicts are AI-assisted and may contain errors.
