Good evening.
Canal Livre continues its special election coverage and therefore, before we begin the presentation, we put on a soundtrack that you know very well; it's a trademark of Brazilian democracy.
Please, play the music there, it already moves the heart.

About: represent Bolsonarism in elections
Today our Canal Livre is receiving the opposition candidate best positioned in the polls, senator for the State of Rio de Janeiro, Flávio Bolsonaro, presidential candidate for the PL, chosen by his father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, and positioned as the heir of Bolsonarism in this election.
Good evening, candidate, senator.
Thank you very much for accepting our invitation here on Canal Livre.

It's a great honor to participate in this debate at the decisive moment our Brazil will face in a few days.
I would like to thank Fernando Mitter on the panel, Ineg and Adriana, our anchors from Jornal da Band, and our political scientist Fernando Schiller.
And I'd like to point out that we have already interviewed the other candidates here on Canal Livre; now it's candidate Flávio Bolsonaro.
The invitation has also already been made.
to the candidate and President of the Republic, Lula.
We'll continue, Flávio; I think that, without a doubt, we could start here by talking about the electronic voting machine, the convention with Milei's presence, the relationship with Michele Bolsonaro, the choice of running mate; there are many topics that we will go through, certainly, over the course of the program.
But I'd like to ask, to start the program by talking about something I think has been little discussed, or at least for those watching us, to understand a bit more about your project for the country.
What does Flávio Bolsonaro have to present to the voter?
What are the main pillars?
Economy.
I'd like you to go over a bit about your plan, your project for the country, should you be elected.

And my candidacy comes in that wake to precisely show that this movement will not end.

They can try to silence Bolsonaro, censor Bolsonaro, torture Bolsonaro, even kill Bolsonaro.
Desconhecido
But this feeling he awakened in our population of patriotism, that it is possible to do the right thing within a federal government, that things can be resolved through politics, is something that has shown itself more resilient than any other public figure I have ever seen in my life.
Desconhecido
So, because of that, and because I am a lawyer, I am a businessman, having been 24 years in public life — four terms as a deputy, one term as a senator of the Republic for my beloved Rio de Janeiro, with four of those years participating directly in the decisions that the President of the Republic, Jair Bolsonaro, made — thus being part of all the political coordination.
Desconhecido
So I feel completely prepared for this mission and the moment.

it ended up arising so that the name Flávio Bolsonaro would come to the top of the ticket.
Desconhecido
And it's for a very simple reason, Rodolfo.

I am also someone who is outraged.

I have been in politics for 24 years, I want to do more.
Desconhecido
I understand when those watching us say things like, 'politics is all the same, nothing will change.'
Desconhecido
It won't change.

We have to lift our heads; Brazil can be fixed.

But the way it is now, everything is wrong, everything is upside down.
