00:00:00.000 can't stand up to authoritarianism then what can we stand up for why is there still fear here this
00:00:05.680 is a conversation that needs to be had and it starts right now i promise you i will not let
00:00:10.960 you down the trucks parked outside illegally should move canada's conservatives will meet
00:00:18.320 our paris climate commitment enough with the wrong so mr speaker i take that back to champion
00:00:24.640 our conservative principles we are the party of law and order to call in the auditors you haven't
00:00:29.520 We haven't yet decided whether we're going to call for the government to impose a mandatory test or vaccination.
00:00:35.520 And we will win the next election.
00:00:51.240 Canada must not ignore the reality of climate change.
00:00:59.520 And why weren't Canadians vaccinated in January and February like everyone else?
00:01:13.100 Welcome, everybody, to Controlled Opposition, Episode 5.
00:01:18.440 My name is Greg Wycliffe.
00:01:20.180 Tonight on the show, we are going to be talking about Archer Pawlowski
00:01:23.740 and the crazy trials that he is going through right now today, actually, as a Canadian pastor.
00:01:30.720 He's another political prisoner here in Canada, guys.
00:01:33.980 And the fact that Danielle Smith said that she was going to stand up for,
00:01:38.440 even give amnesty to pastors specifically, she said, in Alberta who are being persecuted
00:01:43.960 for things that have happened over the past three years.
00:01:47.460 We're going to be talking about that.
00:01:49.040 But first, before we get into that story, hope everyone's doing well.
00:01:52.840 Before we get into that story, I'm going to talk about, because on the show, Controlled Opposition, a lot of people say, Greg, you are always just, you know, criticizing people.
00:02:02.580 What's the solution? You know, you're criticizing all these things that we love.
00:02:06.440 And the whole point, of course, is to hold ourselves accountable, guys.
00:02:10.740 We cannot improve ourselves if we don't hold ourselves accountable.
00:02:15.300 It's like cleaning your side of the street, right?
00:02:17.100 Like if we are going to challenge Justin Trudeau on the other side of the street, this evil regime, we need to clean our side of the street.
00:02:24.020 And that includes holding one another accountable, making sure that we are doing the right thing.
00:02:28.680 So as part of the solution, we need to hold the leader of the opposition accountable.
00:02:33.040 That being, of course, everyone's favorite, PP, Pierre Polyev.
00:02:37.260 So this morning, or I guess today at noon, I sent him an email and it read something like this.
00:02:45.060 The subject of the email was, whoops, do you support 15-Minute Cities?
00:02:52.760 This is a WEF, World Economic Forum Initiative, but let's get into it here.
00:02:57.980 Hello, Mr. Polyev.
00:02:59.320 Do you and the Conservative Party of Canada support the implementation of smart cities,
00:03:03.360 also known as 50-Minute Cities in Canada?
00:03:05.460 This is a great question, I think, to ask Mr. Pierre Polyev.
00:03:08.500 And who knows if it's anything like the time that Mark Friesen spoke to Pierre Polyev.
00:03:13.600 Hey, he asked him, do you support the Sustainable Development Goals?
00:03:17.740 Pierre Polyev said, I've never heard of that.
00:03:21.140 I don't know what that is, which is pretty interesting because, as Mark Friesen said on the show back in Episode 3,
00:03:29.640 I'm pretty sure that Pierre Polyev has voted on Sustainable Development Goal items before in the House of Commons.
00:03:36.700 Anyway, let's continue.
00:03:38.000 Nearly 200 cities have applied for the Smart Cities Challenge.
00:03:42.120 As you can see right over here, this is a map.
00:03:47.340 Smart cities, 15-minute cities, these kind of terms are interchangeable.
00:03:50.960 But if you look at that in total here, it's across the country.
00:03:54.500 It sounds nice.
00:03:55.760 Like any of these sustainable development goals, sounds super nice.
00:03:58.760 But we'll get into that in a second.
00:03:59.980 Let's keep reading.
00:04:01.020 My main concern as a Canadian is that this initiative appears to be one from the World Economic Forum,
00:04:06.400 as you can see in this tweet from them.
00:04:08.580 So this tweet here from the World Economic Forum, the 15-minute city concept, which implies having all necessary amenities within a short walk, bike ride, or public transit trip from one's home has been a powerful tool for urban planners.
00:04:24.900 Sounds kind of cool.
00:04:26.080 If you're somebody who's in the city, sounds kind of cool.
00:04:28.660 Hey, everything in my – but there's fine print that we're going to get to in a minute, which is not being talked about.
00:04:33.700 um and uh hold on here let's go back to my email i do uh i do not want oh yeah this is the same
00:04:44.440 organization that infamous infamously said you will own nothing and you will be happy i do not
00:04:49.740 want unelected foreign organizations dictating how canadian citizens should live and how our
00:04:54.580 cities should be designed in this video you said i will ban all of my ministers for having any
00:04:59.240 involvement in the World Economic Forum, which is true. He said this back in, when was this?
00:05:05.700 Five months ago. This was before he was leader of the Conservative Party, by the way.
00:05:11.420 Speaking of standing up for our people in Canada who have a government under my leadership
00:05:16.680 that works for Canadians, I will ban all my ministers from any involvement in the World
00:05:21.260 economic forum oh my god thunderous applause isn't that amazing isn't that great um i think
00:05:38.220 that is a great boundary to set with your cabinet and because your statement was welcomed with
00:05:43.760 thunderous applause i think it is safe to say it's a popular idea with your supporters so
00:05:50.160 So, Pierre Polyev, will the Conservative Party of Canada publicly condemn or challenge these World Economic Forum-inspired smart cities in Canada?
00:06:00.660 Looking forward to your response.
00:06:02.740 That's the email I sent him at about noon today.
00:06:06.640 So, yeah, I'm really looking forward to a response.
00:06:08.920 You know, being the opposition to the conservative party, or sorry, to Justin Trudeau, and being someone who does not want any world economic forum ties whatsoever, I'm sure will have a favorable response.
00:06:21.320 Don't you?
00:06:21.920 I sure hope so.
00:06:25.220 But, you know, all this smart city talk sounds so fantastic, but there has been a couple clips going viral of basically people.
00:06:33.860 Well, I'll just show you the article here that gets into it.
00:06:36.020 But essentially, 15-minute city plans cause controversy.
00:06:40.720 15-minute city zones that have proposed by Oxford City Council as part of the local plan.
00:06:45.040 This is in Oxford over in the UK.
00:06:47.560 But this highlighted bit, under these new filters,
00:06:50.580 residents will be able to drive freely around their own neighborhoods.
00:06:54.740 But we'll be fined up to 70 pounds for driving into other neighborhoods through the filters.
00:07:03.140 so yay 15 minute cities you're a prisoner in your own neighborhood you can't leave your
00:07:09.140 neighborhood like there's a lot of fine print here that is not being talked about and i think
00:07:14.200 it's pretty obvious at this point that this whole 15 minute city thing uh it reminds me of lockdowns
00:07:21.200 does it not does this all this stuff not remind you of lockdowns you can't leave your home hey
00:07:26.200 only leave for essential services only walk within 15 minutes it's really really obvious
00:07:32.260 like like how congruent how similar these ideas are and uh you know it's if you're of the mind
00:07:40.260 that the world economic forum and the u.n is trying to impose their way of life on countries
00:07:45.780 across the world well it's pretty obvious what this cool chic 50 minute city thing actually is
00:07:51.280 it's the same thing during covid hey health and safety right anyway i wanted to present that
00:07:56.820 email to you. Whoops. I wanted to present that email to you just as an example of part of what
00:08:03.700 I think we can do to hold the opposition accountable. Ask Pierre Polyev, ask your
00:08:09.980 conservative MP, even ask your municipal representative or ask any provincial MPP
00:08:16.960 that you might know. Ask them this question. Ask them, hey, do you support 15-minute cities? Have
00:08:21.860 you heard about this? This is a World Economic Forum initiative and I don't like it because
00:08:25.920 apparently you get fined for leaving your neighborhood we need to talk and again hold
00:08:30.480 these people accountable but um on to on to the main story this evening um
00:08:37.160 archer pavlowski hopefully you've heard of archer pavlowski but uh i'll go over his charges
00:08:44.900 i'll go over you know the situation with danielle smith and obviously comparing it to our enemies
00:08:52.160 He's comparing it to this evil regime, comparing it to the leftists in this country and how they seem to be very, very vocal about all sorts of stuff.
00:08:59.700 But it seems like us conservatives, we're not allowed to be vocal about anything, right?
00:09:03.680 We always get muzzled for some reason.
00:09:06.840 But yeah, so the eyes of the world trial of Calgary pastor charged in Coutts border blockade underway.
00:09:13.720 This is from today.
00:09:15.200 And I just want to show this to get the, you know, kind of what he's being charged with.
00:09:19.600 The trial for Archer Bulowski began Thursday in southern Alberta on charges of breaching a release order and mischief for inciting people to block public property at the border crossing at Coots.
00:09:30.960 So we've heard of this before.
00:09:33.160 We've heard of this mischief charge.
00:09:35.040 A lot of people at the convoy who had major charges and took them to trial.
00:09:39.180 It was this sort of mischief thing.
00:09:41.120 I believe it's up to like mischief up to $5,000.
00:09:44.640 And I'm pretty sure the maximum sentence is something like 10 years or something crazy like that.
00:09:48.120 Don't quote me on that.
00:09:48.980 Next is, he is also charged under the Alberta Critical Infrastructure Defense Act with the willfully damaging or destroying essential infrastructure.
00:09:59.980 This is key.
00:10:01.500 Damaging or destroying essential infrastructure.
00:10:04.120 He went there and gave a sermon to the people at the Coutts blockade.
00:10:10.000 He went there into like a bar or a pub and kind of said, hey, you know, you're doing the right thing.
00:10:16.500 Stand up for freedom.
00:10:17.640 God is with you.
00:10:18.440 something like that for 10 minutes yes he may have used the word fighting for freedom uh which
00:10:24.020 is probably as as cringe and silly as that is this is probably what the uh what the crown is
00:10:29.160 gonna try and argue uh we're gonna talk about that because Ezra Levant was live tweeting it
00:10:34.260 today and it's quite a laugh to be honest um it's also not a laugh because it's it's it's like this
00:10:40.500 what's happening in this country right uh finally the crown's case against Pavlovsky consists of an
00:10:46.300 agreed statement of facts and the 20 minute video of the speech that the pastor gave to the
00:10:51.700 protesters on february 3rd 2022 almost a year ago exactly but yes this 20 minute video of the speech
00:10:58.080 is the sermon right uh it's a it's a pastor speaking that's what he does okay that's what
00:11:03.940 he does but for those who don't know um because i really like to cover the backstory of archer
00:11:09.040 Pawlowski because he really is not just some pastor. He's a total, uh, a charitable individual.
00:11:17.200 He's an actually virtuous person who does incredible things. Uh, I wrote an article
00:11:22.220 about it on my sub stack, uh, which you can check out. You can find it if you go to Greg
00:11:25.980 Wycliffe dot step sub stack or Greg Wycliffe dot com. Um, yeah, this guy's been feeding the
00:11:32.380 homeless for 20 years in Calgary and downtown Calgary. Uh, he's been feeding the homeless for
00:11:38.040 over 20 years in downtown calgary uh this is someone who is you know genuinely charitable who
00:11:44.720 genuinely is helping people you know all this stuff that the liberal party talks about he
00:11:49.200 he actually is that and he's very humble about it as well he's a good christian man and and this is
00:11:54.120 what's happening to him you know he is like one of the most persecuted people in the country
00:11:57.460 and i think i'll actually just hop well actually no we'll do chronologically here so enter danielle
00:12:03.980 Smith. Okay. Oh, I got to move this. You guys can't see that. Hold on. Hold on here.
00:12:11.880 There we go. So enter Danielle Smith, Alberta premier. This is sorry. This is from October
00:12:18.740 2022. Okay. Alberta premier exploring pardons for COVID-19 related fines and arrests.
00:12:25.900 You, you may, if you're watching this show, you may have heard of this. This was very exciting.
00:12:29.500 You know, this made me really love Danielle Smith.
00:12:33.140 And for the record, I think it's great that she said this in general.
00:12:35.920 I think it's good to get it out there, even if she's not following through.
00:12:38.820 At least she said something, okay?
00:12:40.000 This is better than pretty well any other sitting politician in this country.
00:12:43.760 But this is what she said in her statement.
00:12:46.320 The things that come to top of mind for me are people who got arrested as pastors,
00:12:50.480 people who got arrested or given fines for not wearing masks.
00:12:54.440 These are not things that are normal to get fines and to get prosecuted for.
00:12:58.220 Yeah. Yeah. So I'm going to look into the range of outstanding fines that there still are and to get some legal advice on which ones we are able to cancel and provide amnesty for. Now, in retrospect, like this is a good start. This is a good start. But I'm going to compare what conservatives are saying to stand up for people and to condemn people. And I'm going to compare that to leftists in this country in a minute.
00:13:24.500 and you'll see how completely different uh you know how aggressive they are how inflammatory
00:13:30.100 their rhetoric is this is something but this this whole situation that i'm going to cover
00:13:35.200 really dictates how much we're losing uh in this country and and not even losing but just like
00:13:40.660 not even fighting as as hard as we should be um so yeah this is what she said standing up for
00:13:48.040 people who were prosecuted during covid for wearing masks specifically pastors and uh providing
00:13:54.240 potentially providing amnesty for these people. And recently, well, this was the recent thing.
00:14:00.760 I tweeted this today. It appears Danielle Smith has gone back on her promise to fight for political
00:14:06.160 prisoners, including Pastor Archer Pawlowski and Albertans facing bogus COVID charges.
00:14:11.900 The premier says she's no longer exploring a pardon for people who violated COVID-19 public
00:14:17.320 health rules because Canada's legal system doesn't work like it does in the States.
00:14:21.960 She made the statement Monday on the Sean Newman podcast.
00:14:25.140 Some people think that a premier has the same power as they do in the states of clemency or offering pardons.
00:14:33.200 And I've not observed that that's the case in Canada.
00:14:36.280 Smith also says politicians need to be hands-off once the justice system gets involved.
00:14:41.360 A firmer stance than last week when Smith said she'd been talking to prosecutors about COVID-19 rule-breaker cases and how those cases should proceed.
00:14:49.080 I do want to make sure that they have an independent process for assessing that, but I ask them on a regular basis as new cases come out, is it in the public interest to pursue and is there a reasonable likelihood of conviction?
00:15:01.800 so as you can see there's kind of a a a more dialing back she's already dialing it back more
00:15:09.840 like hey i want to look for amnesty okay i'm going to sort of look into it i'm going to see in these
00:15:14.100 like kind of case-to-case basis she's already sort of dialing it back and uh she essentially
00:15:20.260 dials it back entirely saying that you know uh where's the headline is it here yeah smith backs
00:15:28.380 away from dropping COVID-19 fines, drawing allegations of interference and criticism,
00:15:33.220 I'll leave the justice system to work. So she's kind of dialed it all the way back. Okay, I'm not
00:15:38.300 doing that anymore. I'm not going to stand up for people anymore. And I thought it would be
00:15:41.760 interesting just to compare that to things that Justin Trudeau has said and done in the past.
00:15:47.860 Let's see if we remember this oldie but goodie. The liberal party
00:15:52.580 believes that terrorists should get to keep their canadian citizenship
00:16:01.280 because i do
00:16:05.880 and i'm willing to take on anyone who disagrees with that yeah so i mean need i say more this
00:16:19.000 this guy is talking about hey terrorists are still Canadian citizens he's not afraid of saying
00:16:24.660 things that are going to offend people or upset upset people and and and really uh stand up for
00:16:31.220 terrorists Justin Trudeau Justin Trudeau is standing up for an actual person who has made
00:16:38.380 bombs because I if I'm not mistaken actually actually is this I don't want to misspeak here
00:16:44.080 I assume that this soundbite was in reference to Omar Khadr.
00:16:48.960 But either way, it's neither here nor there.
00:16:52.000 Justin Trudeau is clearly comfortable standing up and representing the terrorist.
00:16:56.140 Yes, terrorists are still Canadians.
00:16:58.280 This guy is not afraid to be canceled.
00:17:00.240 He's not afraid to say something completely out of whack.
00:17:03.540 Okay?
00:17:04.440 And once again, we have something that Danielle Smith was doing initially
00:17:09.080 that I think a lot of people supported.
00:17:10.680 A lot of people were like, yes, Danielle Smith.
00:17:14.080 You're standing up for people who have been wrongly persecuted.
00:17:16.940 Good for you.
00:17:17.520 You had all the support, and then you got all this pressure,
00:17:20.080 and you dialed it back, dialed it back, dialed it back, dialed it back, dialed it back, right?
00:17:24.120 Like, what is going on there?
00:17:26.360 What is with the fear?
00:17:28.840 And some people might say, oh, well, Greg, the fear is because of the CBC.
00:17:33.320 The CBC wrote an article.
00:17:34.720 Oh, my God, the CBC.
00:17:37.060 Check this out.
00:17:37.880 This article is actually bonkers.
00:17:40.360 Alberta Premier's office contacted Crown Prosecution about Coutts' cases.
00:17:46.060 Sources.
00:17:47.440 This is a key part.
00:17:49.200 Sources.
00:17:50.120 Okay.
00:17:50.840 So the CBC, the sources from the CBC is alleging Alberta Premier's office contacted Crown Prosecution about Coutts' cases.
00:18:00.580 Okay.
00:18:01.320 So Smith, and this is the first line of this terrible article.
00:18:06.040 Smith hasn't contacted Crown Prosecutors and has no knowledge of staff doing so.
00:18:10.360 premier's office says. And then if you keep going down the very first part, the editor's note,
00:18:15.340 the original version of this story published January 19th neglected to note that CBC news
00:18:20.580 has not seen the emails in question. So if that is true that, Oh my God, uh, Greg, the reason
00:18:30.600 Danielle Smith is not standing up, uh, to, to people wrongly persecuted anymore is because of
00:18:36.120 the cbc article the cbc article based on phantom emails that apparently uh the cbc has never seen
00:18:42.440 like come on guys and once again this is a pattern we're seeing on controlled opposition
00:18:47.000 which is uh conservative you know the opposition conservative mps or conservative premiers
00:18:53.000 being terrified of the media anything that media does oh my god you're in charge and once again
00:18:59.620 as we know it's the liberal party it's the liberal media party justin trudeau has the
00:19:05.000 media in his back pocket so if you have an opposition that's listening to what's in trudeau's
00:19:09.000 back pocket then what exactly what exactly is this opposition good for what exactly are these
00:19:14.160 conservative politicians good for write it in the comments you know like if if these people
00:19:21.020 are beholden to this terrible terrible media who quite frankly sources like this is really really
00:19:28.080 shoddy and not only that somebody sent me this right before the show cbc doubled down on this
00:19:33.480 article with just more and more nonsense cbc news stands by coots story despite statement
00:19:39.840 from danielle smith's office like i can't believe this is real but uh it's canada now right uh that
00:19:48.320 original story of january 19th included allegations by well-placed sources not just sources well-placed
00:19:55.240 sources what the does that mean um that original story of january 19th included allegations by
00:20:02.880 A well-placed source is that a staffer had sent a series of emails to the Alberta Crown Prosecution Service
00:20:07.860 challenging the prosecutor's assessment and direction of the cases stemming from last winter's border protests at Kootz.
00:20:15.160 After a weekend search of nearly a million emails, the government reported that no related emails had been found.
00:20:22.280 CBC, you are the one that started this story.
00:20:25.160 You know what I mean?
00:20:25.800 Like, you don't have the emails either.
00:20:28.240 So, it's like, oh, she didn't have the emails.
00:20:31.520 It's like, do you guys have the emails? Does anyone have the emails? And I mean, the rest of this story is just it's a bunch of the CBC does this sometimes.
00:20:40.120 It's a bunch of gobbledygook about how great a journalist they are. But it's like no one really ever saw it. Right.
00:20:48.180 There's this long statement from who is this from the CBC Calgary Newsroom saying credibility being trusted is the most important attribute of any news organization.
00:21:00.180 That is true of CBC News.
00:21:01.660 So let me emphasize here that we are very careful not only to confirm the bona fides of the sources we spoke with,
00:21:06.660 but to corroborate the information they gave us.
00:21:09.000 Then where are the emails?
00:21:11.280 Where are the emails then?
00:21:13.220 You know, you're so confident in this source, but you don't even...
00:21:15.600 I heard that they sent us emails one time.
00:21:18.440 They sent us...
00:21:19.200 There were emails that were...
00:21:20.300 You don't even have the emails?
00:21:21.380 Are you kidding me?
00:21:22.460 And you're supposed to be, you know, tax-funded news media?
00:21:25.220 This is a joke.
00:21:25.800 It was only after we had spoken with multiple sources and were satisfied with its credibility and authenticity that we published it.
00:21:32.380 Yeah, what the hell does that mean?
00:21:33.960 That basically says, hey, we felt good about it.
00:21:36.120 So we posted it.
00:21:38.140 And the reason I bring this up is, you know, really?
00:21:42.300 Like, Danielle Smith, is that supposed to be the story that she's getting intimidated by the CBC who can't even get their story straight?
00:21:50.240 she's being intimidated by you know the canadian broadcasting corporation and their shoddy
00:21:56.060 journalism if you've noticed in right-wing politics in canada anytime that a politician
00:22:04.620 has said defund the cbc their supporters go crazy everyone goes crazy everyone loves to hear that
00:22:10.280 we don't like the cbc you know even even normies even people who are more like in the center are
00:22:16.620 starting to not like CBC either, especially after the convoy. There's a lot of people becoming
00:22:20.520 increasingly disenchanted, disenfranchised with the Canadian news media. So again, why are these
00:22:29.000 conservative politicians fearing them, beholden to them? These people are not our friends. And
00:22:37.240 once again, there's no way we can actually challenge the Trudeau regime and challenge
00:22:41.580 this evil regime if we're going to constantly be terrified of the media. We might as well
00:22:46.600 pack it in now if that's what these politicians are going to continue to do um but back back to
00:22:51.820 this story just to kind of get into the details this is uh let's hear from archer povlowski the
00:22:56.600 man himself okay this was taken um i think this was a couple weeks ago but this was after the
00:23:03.640 statement from danielle smith that essentially you know she's not going to be uh standing up for
00:23:09.100 for archer or the pastors or anyone anymore i'm pretty yeah what did you expect do you think
00:23:15.360 did you expect there would have been change already or well is that not what she said i mean
00:23:20.080 as politicians if we don't keep our words then we're good for nothing i expect the politicians
00:23:25.660 to for a change keep their words we have nothing else except what we promise what we say and again
00:23:32.900 politicians are being elected based on their campaign promises one of those promises was
00:23:39.240 very clear that there's going to be amnesty for the people like me i'm on a house arrest from 7
00:23:44.320 p.m to 7 a.m facing 10 and a half years of imprisonment for me being a pastor and giving
00:23:50.480 people a message of hope at the kud's border telling canadians no violence no guns no sword
00:23:57.600 peacefully and yet here i am shackled prisoner of the state uh why because i dared to oppose their
00:24:06.960 attorney why tyler shandro is still in office in a capacity of the minister of justice yet caught
00:24:15.360 in this hypocrisy at the sky palace why the same people are back in power and people like myself
00:24:22.000 are still prisoners of the state we heard from the premier this morning i guess she has looked into
00:24:28.720 it ask questions but ultimately she said she wants to leave it to the to the justice system
00:24:32.960 an independent justice system when you hear that what do you make it out well i say stop playing
00:24:38.080 the game of politics it was the politics that got us in trouble as you remember the former minister
00:24:44.880 of justice casey madu said it clearly for the whole world to know that this was political it had
00:24:50.000 nothing to do with science and here we are so if what they've done to us was political well the
00:24:55.280 politics can set us free so stop playing this game because it's not funny anymore you've promised
00:25:01.840 And this is not interfering with the justice system.
00:25:04.120 This is just directing the minister of justice, telling him, hey, this is not in the best
00:25:08.460 interest of Canadians and the likelihood of conviction is almost zero.
00:25:14.100 I have done nothing wrong.
00:25:18.500 This is why it's so important to have this conversation, guys, because if somebody like
00:25:22.140 Archer Pawlowski is not going to be championed and not going to be defended by conservative
00:25:27.560 MPs, conservative politicians, then what are they going to stand up for? It's absolutely
00:25:35.320 reprehensible. We have, we have, I just showed you a clip earlier, Justin Trudeau standing up
00:25:41.940 against, standing up for terrorists. Okay. Why can't a conservative politician stand up for
00:25:51.480 someone like Archer Bavlowski. He is a Christian pastor who has been feeding the homeless in
00:25:57.720 Calgary for 20 years. Why can't a conservative politician stand up for somebody like that?
00:26:05.100 And people will say, oh, well, like the media, the media are going to criticize him.
00:26:11.000 Right. And we've seen this before with conservative politicians. Oh, well, I can't stand up to
00:26:15.660 immigration policy. I can't stand up to the transgenderism cult because they're going to
00:26:20.560 call me names. They're going to call me racist. They're going to call me transphobic. And now
00:26:23.720 it's gotten so bad in this country where it's like, oh, I can't, oh, people are getting thrown
00:26:29.260 in jail wrongfully. Authoritarianism is cracking down on these people. There's political prisoners
00:26:33.380 being thrown in jail. No, I can't stand up to that. I can't stand up to that either because
00:26:38.420 I might get called names from the media. It's completely ridiculous. And the other argument
00:26:46.160 as well is, well, Greg, they can't stand up. They can't stand up to they can't comment on
00:26:53.480 these things because they're active court cases, right? They're active court cases. They can't
00:26:58.080 intervene. And that's fair. I don't know. I don't know the legalities there. But to that, I would
00:27:02.360 say, get creative, get creative with what you're going to talk about. You can still I mean, if you
00:27:07.560 again, if you look at the left in this country, if you look at someone like Justin Trudeau, he has
00:27:11.360 not hesitated to other unvaccinated people to completely shame and persecute us just for our
00:27:20.000 beliefs and other us and call us all these names. Like I said, he stood up for, you know, I'm going
00:27:25.840 to play this clip. Listen to Justin Trudeau here. This is after Omar Cotter, okay? This is after
00:27:30.880 the Omar Cotter thing, after he paid Omar Cotter $10 million. This is what Justin Trudeau believes
00:27:36.320 in. I can understand Canadian's concerns about the settlement. In fact, I share those concerns
00:27:45.880 about the money. That's why we settled. If we had continued to fight this, not only would
00:27:55.540 we have inevitably lost, but estimates range from 30 to 40 million dollars that it would
00:28:04.440 have ended up costing the government. So, this was the responsible path to take.
00:28:14.620 The measure of a society, of a just society, is not whether we stand up for people's rights
00:28:21.660 when it's easy or popular to do so, it's whether we recognize rights when it's difficult,
00:28:27.940 it's unpopular. We are a society that stands up for people's rights. And when governments fail
00:28:37.220 to respect people's rights, we all end up paying. I think that is the lesson that hopefully
00:28:45.600 future governments will draw from this settlement.
00:28:51.080 can you believe that justin trudeau is going to have that long kind of beautiful speech honestly
00:28:58.700 about omar cotter and and and paying omar cotter 10 million dollars but we have danielle smith
00:29:06.780 who's like oh yeah this christian pastor in alberta yeah i don't know if i can comment on
00:29:12.120 that i don't know if i can say anything anything beautiful about standing up for a canadian's rights
00:29:17.360 uh like this despair this disparity is disgusting and just to kind of add to that conversation of
00:29:24.280 oh greg he can't danielle he can't stand up to archer paulowski or danielle can't stand up for
00:29:30.140 archer paulowski because you know there's legal reasons for it no i don't buy that and this is
00:29:36.140 another um this is an ndp mp uh condemning condemning uh tucker carlson speaker after
00:29:46.040 consultation with the parties in the house if you seek it i believe you will find unanimous
00:29:50.860 consent for the following motion that given the rise of far-right and associated violent extremism
00:29:57.160 led to the attempted insurrection in the united states the house condemns recent comments made
00:30:03.080 by fox news personality tucker carlson in which he suggests u.s armed forces liberate canada
00:30:10.820 from the current prime minister all those once again this idea that oh conservative mps can't
00:30:19.220 talk about this danielle smith can't talk about that she's gonna get in trouble it's bullshit
00:30:23.780 guys it's total bullshit this is an ndp mp getting mad at a tv show host in america for criticizing
00:30:33.460 somebody in our country like who cares i tweeted earlier this is such like authoritarian arrogance
00:30:40.600 though it's so it's you can picture like some sort of chinese communist talking about it
00:30:45.360 there was someone in america who criticized xi jinping like we must condemn that person like
00:30:50.740 it's that crazy and cartoonish the ntp is being crazy and cartoonish about that but once again
00:30:56.340 us conservatives know we can't we can't condemn anybody and actually speaking of which you know
00:31:03.200 something that uh back to pierre polyev for a minute something that pierre polyev always talks
00:31:08.040 about is I'm going to stop the gatekeepers. Those gatekeepers, I'm going to get those gatekeepers.
00:31:15.340 Who are the gatekeepers? Who are you talking? Who are you talking about Pierre? Like there's
00:31:21.060 no specifics with, um, you know, who he's specifically talking about. Meanwhile, we have
00:31:26.580 an NDP MP specifically, uh, condemning a TV show house elsewhere. So I completely reject this idea
00:31:33.700 that Danielle Smith can't stand up for people who are being thrown in jail for no good reason,
00:31:37.700 other than their political opinion.
00:31:39.760 And I think it's absolutely shameful
00:31:42.080 that we aren't talking about this more.
00:31:45.160 This is how bad we are losing in this country.
00:31:51.760 And if we can't stand up for someone like Archer Povlowski,
00:31:57.340 if we can't stand up to authoritarianism,
00:31:59.880 if we can't stand up to people being thrown in jail
00:32:02.800 for their political opinion,
00:32:05.000 I don't really care about the price of milk.
00:32:07.700 you know, like, like none of these issues matter. Like the country's over. Okay. I mean,
00:32:14.080 it personally, it doesn't make me feel good that we have, you know, someone like,
00:32:18.220 someone like Jeremy McKenzie getting debanked, you know, someone like Morgan May getting thrown
00:32:24.160 in jail for gas theft and all these other crazy persecutions like Archer Pawlowski,
00:32:30.000 like Hildebrandt, Pastor Hildebrandt getting fined a quarter of a million dollars.
00:32:34.540 you know if if we don't have members of parliament talking about this conservative members of
00:32:40.140 parliament talking about this loudly condemning it happening how often has that even happened
00:32:45.180 not nearly enough because it should be this and and people who say oh it's not good strategy this
00:32:50.760 is great strategy this is great strategy why aren't they harping on it more often oh the media
00:32:55.640 who cares about the media because the more that they actually speak the truth the more that the
00:33:01.740 media will just bury themselves anyway i'm getting a little bit into political strategy here and
00:33:06.760 that's not supposed to be the main focus of the show but uh let's hop into the chat just for a
00:33:10.980 minute before we go i'm so sorry about that you didn't hear that muted part because i solved all
00:33:16.980 of the country's problems while i was muted for that minute there let me tell you oh man it's too
00:33:21.840 bad uh north of nothing two dollars two shillings for your mute button yeah i really needed that
00:33:26.880 we're working on that one
00:33:29.620 bearded McNasty
00:33:32.540 you're muted
00:33:33.400 thank you guys
00:33:35.260 thank you for the heads up
00:33:37.620 I had one earlier here from
00:33:39.660 stay easy my friends with $50
00:33:41.960 thank you so much
00:33:43.560 they say
00:33:44.660 you will eat the bugs
00:33:47.720 and you will not
00:33:49.000 the gasoline
00:33:51.120 because when your prime minister
00:33:53.860 wants to fuck you
00:33:55.260 you will sit there and be booked and you will like it thank you for the 50 uh yeah no that's
00:34:02.660 not going to happen man that's not going to happen the uh the globalists are not going to win
00:34:06.580 because what they're doing is uh too too insane and cartoonish and uh yeah but guys thank you so
00:34:14.040 much uh for tuning in um i really think that i really think this is something that needs to be
00:34:22.860 talked about more as i said you know we need to stand up to authoritarianism the fundamental rights
00:34:28.160 and freedoms in this country you know and if conservative politicians are not doing that
00:34:33.480 then i don't really care sure danielle smith has done great things standing up for the energy
00:34:39.680 sector and standing up even to ottawa so we know it's possible to say and do these controversial
00:34:45.440 things but when you can't stand up to the authoritarian thing when you can't stand up
00:34:50.320 for someone throwing and getting thrown in jail for no good reason. I'm sorry. Like
00:34:54.780 why not? Why not? And as I said, I think, I think those examples are nonsense. We need to keep
00:35:03.080 holding each other accountable and it is okay to demand higher standards. Thank you for watching
00:35:09.580 guys. We'll talk to you soon.
00:35:20.320 You
