Greg Wycliffe - Lessons from Convoy 2025

00:00:00.000 Has Convoy 2025 already been canceled? Was it because of the single TikTok and few tweets that

00:00:07.100 I made? Am I trying to prevent Canadians to have their right to protest? Just wanted to follow up

00:00:14.000 on this because there's a lot of weird sort of banter going on online and it's a good teachable

00:00:18.940 moment. So Government Corrupt is the account that started this whole protest idea. Here's

00:00:24.380 him taking credit for it. I was the one that started this entire thing. It showed me how

00:00:28.600 there are so many cowards living in this country. Since people like myself have criticized the 0.66

00:00:34.400 problems with his protest idea, he's also said the people who want to shut me up are the ones

00:00:39.900 running the PSYOP. First of all, if your protest is shutting down already simply because someone

00:00:45.920 like myself has made a very simple TikTok video poking holes in it or criticizing why it's probably

00:00:51.320 not a good idea, maybe your protest movement isn't all that it's cracked up to be. As a reminder,

00:00:57.060 my whole premise was I really feel like this protest will just be used by the political

00:01:04.000 establishment. The Conservative Party could use it or the Liberal Party could use it to their benefit

00:01:09.980 as well. It would not help the Canadian people. Here's a picture of Parliament Hill in 2010 when

00:01:15.900 Stephen Harper prorogued Parliament. Future Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was also attending these rallies

00:01:21.960 to protest Stephen Harper proroguing Parliament. So protesting the prorogation of Parliament is

00:01:27.480 nothing new. And as we can see from that previous example, it's something that political parties

00:01:33.460 benefit from or get on board with. My whole point with Convoy 2025 being about protesting Trudeau

00:01:40.780 proroguing Parliament is this would probably just benefit Pierre Polyev. Why would I promote a protest

00:01:46.360 that would only benefit the Conservative Party of Canada? Need I remind you that there is ongoing

00:01:51.960 court proceedings with people who are at the convoy? There's still these legal fallout of people who

00:01:57.720 are protesting at the 2022 Trucker Convoy. I say that because the other direction this protest could

00:02:04.260 go in would be benefiting the Liberals, i.e. maybe they will create some crackdown. Maybe they will

00:02:10.740 try to flare up all of this media about how these bad people are back and try to use that to their

00:02:17.900 benefit. But even aside from all of that, let's get down to the real teachable moment here, which is

00:02:24.020 what is the point of this protest? What is the benefit? What do we think the people are going to

00:02:32.460 get out of this? With the Trucker Convoy in 2022, it was very clear, we don't want vaccine mandates

00:02:38.920 anymore. And that started to happen as the protests proceeded. Success. And that's what I'm asking

00:02:45.080 about this Convoy 2025. We're protesting the prorogation of Parliament, which has happened before,

00:02:51.100 and the outcome has only been to support the opposition parties. Maybe you want to say,

00:02:56.320 no, we want an election now. We want an election now. Okay, what would that look like? How was that

00:03:01.120 going to happen? We're just going to all show up there. Again, this is why I'm saying the only benefit,

00:03:06.760 the only outcome of a protest like this would be, we might as well all wear conservative party t-shirts

00:03:12.840 and say, let's get Polyev in there quick. And if that's what you believe in, then fine, go do that

00:03:18.420 protest. It's just something personally that I would not support because I don't support these

00:03:22.300 establishment parties because I don't think they have our best interests in mind. And the guy who

00:03:26.200 started this is like, it's sad how people in this country are too afraid to protest. They're too

00:03:31.900 afraid to protest their government. And this is why I'm making this video. Do we not learn anything

00:03:37.160 from the original Trucker Convoy? Since then, there's been all of these little protests going,

00:03:44.060 there already was a Convoy 2.0, by the way, that was very embarrassing. And it's because of this

00:03:48.740 ongoing problem that people who are frustrated with their governments can't seem to come up with a good

00:03:55.000 idea of how a protest should actually go and what the actual outcome would be. We got lucky

00:04:00.540 with the Trucker Convoy. And even that could have been more successful. The main problem with a lot

00:04:05.680 of these right-wing protests is there is not a singular goal in mind. There was people doing

00:04:11.900 like the fuck Trudeau things in the parking lots. The last thing was like a free the children or save 0.98

00:04:18.720 the children convoy, which was sort of about vaccines, but also sort of about, you know, the

00:04:24.040 gender indoctrinations in schools. It was all very unclear. And even the guy who organized this one,

00:04:28.900 he has a tweet from yesterday, the flow of money, the central bank is the root cause.

00:04:33.080 That's what we need to end. No central bank, no government funding, no funding, no mass immigration. 1.00

00:04:38.980 Buddy is all over the place. He's all over the place with his messaging, with what he's trying

00:04:43.660 to accomplish here. I am all for people, Canadians who are frustrated to build something, to have a

00:04:51.760 singular goal in mind, to try and accomplish something that will, you know, make change in this

00:04:57.560 country. But this idea, when we just take our desperation and our frustration and just show

00:05:03.080 up in Ottawa and think that's going to change anything, I'm sorry. We've, we've seen this time

00:05:07.720 and time again that it does not work. And folks, let's not forget what happened right after the

00:05:12.680 2022 convoy. It got co-opted by the Conservative Party of Canada. All of a sudden, this establishment

00:05:20.440 party is totally on board with being against mandates, even though they supported them the entire

00:05:26.680 time. This was a disgusting display of controlled opposition of an establishment party, usurping

00:05:33.640 a political movement to their benefit. Poliev rose to stardom as the Conservative Party leader while

00:05:41.000 never speaking about Chris Barber, Tamara Lich, anybody who made major sacrifices to protest the vaccine

00:05:48.840 mandate. So we know that if you are going to make a political movement or protest and try to change

00:05:53.880 something, people are going to show up to try and co-opt that movement who are part of the political

00:05:59.400 establishment. And I found it very interesting that even government corrupt in one of his tweets says

00:06:03.960 any call to action will be destroyed by chaos agents, provocateurs, controlled opposition, or useful 1.00

00:06:08.520 idiots. And he's right. But the problem is with the simple criticisms people have made of your 1.00

00:06:13.720 prorogation protest, you haven't really addressed any of my claims of like, hey, won't this just be used

00:06:19.560 by establishment parties to their benefit? Still haven't answered that. And look, I know things are

00:06:24.760 frustrating. Greg, like, why can't you just let people protest? You can go and do that if it's going to

00:06:30.200 make you feel better. I just want a real solution. I don't want to give, I don't want to give my enemy some

00:06:36.680 like a political football to bat around. And it really seems like that's what this protest would be.

00:06:42.280 Something that establishment parties can use to their benefit, not to the benefit of the Canadian people.

00:06:47.240 The solutions are going to be boring and hard work guys. It's not going to be an easy solution to

00:06:54.120 turn this country around because as I just mentioned, you know, any sort of political

00:06:58.680 movement will try to be co-opted by those already in power. What I'm personally doing is I've started

00:07:04.520 safefreespeech.ca. I've become a free speech watchdog in Canada. Anyway, I'm just giving you an example of

00:07:11.160 this, this stuff takes a lot of work. You can't just take your frustration and show up on Parliament Hill

00:07:16.200 and think that you're going to turn the country around. And one last thing as well, Government

00:07:19.640 Corrupt said, people are still blasting out videos and posts about me. I'm living rent free in their

00:07:24.120 head. Yeah, you have over a hundred thousand followers. I'm making videos about this because

00:07:29.240 you're spouting a bunch of nonsense or you're just not, you're not sending out a good message.

00:07:35.240 So I'm just clocking you on that because I think it's important for people to understand

00:07:39.800 how politics actually works in this country.
