00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel 342 a.m. Friday, August the 7th. I hope you're
00:00:07.800 having a great Friday. No doubt you're looking forward to the weekend. I tip the big blue
00:00:12.480 mug of coffee to you. 53,000 subscribers. Thank you so much if you are a subscriber
00:00:17.920 here. By the way, if you haven't subscribed, please click on subscribe. I do appreciate
00:00:22.480 it. I love to put the button, you know, the YouTube button up there on the wall. Only
00:00:27.080 47,000 more to go. Okay. So let's, let's look at just a couple of things today. I was going to
00:00:33.020 expand on this, make this a long video, but I know you don't like that. I know how many of you say,
00:00:37.300 John, I like that you keep your videos short. So I try to keep them down under 10 minutes
00:00:41.120 so that you can go on with your busy lives. So let's talk a little bit about Pierre Polyev
00:00:48.000 and Mark Carney as well, but let's focus in on Pierre Polyev. Right now, the knives seem to be
00:00:53.640 out for Pierre Polyev, specifically when it comes to the media. They don't like Polyev. Polyev,
00:00:58.740 Polyev, I supported Polyev last year. I don't support him now. He's coming into my province
00:01:02.880 with all of his MPs. Fewer by the day, by the way. Every day there's a new conservative MP
00:01:09.240 walking. What is it? Larry Brock is going back to his job as a crown prosecutor, so he's lost
00:01:14.340 another MP. Resigned, I think it was, yesterday. But anyway, Polyev has been on the money, really,
00:01:21.940 when it comes to his messaging to Canadians, but people absolutely hate him. They put all of their
00:01:28.500 money and everything on Mark Carney. Mark Carney has a modus operandi, and I talked about this the
00:01:33.080 other day, which we're going to get to in just a moment. Because Paul Yev had a great message
00:01:38.340 yesterday. He absolutely slayed Mark Carney on what he's actually done over the last close to
00:01:44.900 500 days in office. It's amazing. It's hard to believe. It seems like yesterday, it was April
00:01:50.160 28th and we were voting in the election. But it's almost 500 days away, folks. We're going on, what,
00:01:55.940 18 months of Mark Carney as the prime minister of the country. I'm not going to do the math on
00:02:00.560 the months, but it's around there anyway. So Poliev has the same message I have. I did something
00:02:06.140 on this just the other day. I did a video. This is a message in the national interest. I'm going
00:02:11.640 to play a short little bit of that for you in just a moment. So Poliev is asked yesterday about
00:02:16.880 Mark Carney and what he's done and what he's accomplished. And Polyev stands out there and
00:02:22.040 spits truth bombs to the media. The other side hate Polyev so much, they don't like the truth.
00:02:28.740 They can't handle the truth, as Jack Nicholson would say in A Few Good Men. So he's asked about
00:02:34.820 this. And this is what Pierre Polyev had to say, the truth. Well, I would encourage people to look
00:02:41.800 at the results rather than the announcements. So what are the actual results so far after
00:02:51.580 a year and a half of Mark Carney? He set up this major projects office to approve projects
00:02:58.700 at record speed. Do you know how many projects it's permitted? Zero. Here we are a year in.
00:03:06.840 there are 500, 500 projects waiting for federal approval. 500 projects that would pay paychecks
00:03:18.160 to Canadian workers, generate revenues for schools and hospitals, make our economy more
00:03:22.340 self-reliant. All Mark Carney needs to do is get out of the way. And yet we continue to wait.
00:03:29.960 Everything Pierre Polyev says there is true. It's easy to verify one way or the other.
00:03:35.800 So why would he lie to people?
00:03:37.300 It's the truth.
00:03:38.040 The other side, meaning the elbows-up type, are going after him for attacking their guy,
00:03:42.660 Mark Carney, who has really accomplished nothing.
00:03:44.960 I mean, Mark Carney has a couple of different things he runs to to try to make it look like
00:03:49.080 he's doing something.
00:03:49.960 Or when his popularity starts to fall a little bit, you walk out with another announcement
00:03:55.300 about something, but you aren't actually building anything.
00:03:58.100 Or you announce something that's already been announced.
00:04:00.620 or you announce something that costs Canadian taxpayers money, like his housing plan as of
00:04:05.900 late. I think he came in here last week, stood with Danielle Smith, pledging $800 million for
00:04:10.900 housing. By the way, have you noticed a lot of his housing is rentals? Did you notice that the
00:04:16.260 plan he had with Olivia Chow in Toronto the other day was a rental place? It wasn't actually owning
00:04:21.340 your home. You won't own a home in Mark Carney's Canada. You will rent. This is his plan for you.
00:04:28.780 You won't own anything.
00:04:29.740 He's not making housing more affordable for people like he said he would.
00:04:33.480 But this is what he does.
00:04:34.520 He announces things.
00:04:35.380 I said this the other day.
00:04:36.300 He's got another thing he runs to all the time, which is his favorite thing, which we'll get to in just a moment, which makes things even harder for you than these announcements that don't accomplish something.
00:04:46.320 This is what I had to say about it the other day.
00:04:48.380 If you haven't seen this, I did a whole video on the fact that our pipeline here is now in the national interest.
00:04:56.500 but this is the modus operandi of the Liberal Party.
00:05:00.680 A project of national interest is important
00:05:02.780 because it's the only way the Liberal government
00:05:05.180 can make it look like they're actually accomplishing something.
00:05:08.820 It's their modus operandi.
00:05:10.960 Haven't done a thing? Proclaim Canada strong.
00:05:14.500 Haven't done a thing? Say we'll build things faster than we've done in generations.
00:05:19.380 Haven't done a thing? Announce a major projects office.
00:05:22.520 Haven't done a thing? Re-announce projects that have already been announced. Haven't done a thing? Use the word catalyze. Haven't done a thing? Trump. Haven't done a thing? Make a speech at Davos. Haven't done a thing? Travel endlessly.
00:05:38.380 Haven't done a thing, repeat all of the above ad infinitum.
00:05:42.460 Haven't done a thing, sign an MOU.
00:05:45.020 Haven't done a thing, announce a pipeline with no investor.
00:05:49.160 Haven't done a thing, post endlessly on social media all of the above.
00:05:53.940 Haven't done a thing, announce a project of national interest.
00:05:58.260 Still haven't done a thing.
00:05:59.880 Everything I said there is true.
00:06:01.520 I apologize if you've seen that already.
00:06:03.820 Polly says, look at Carney's record.
00:06:06.080 We'll get things done if we get government out of the way.
00:06:08.760 I believe that.
00:06:09.780 Do you know we actually have a private housing industry in Canada?
00:06:13.300 Why aren't they building these houses?
00:06:15.620 Why do we need government dollars for this?
00:06:17.780 Why do we have a government housing corporation now that Carney created?
00:06:22.840 It doesn't make sense to me.
00:06:23.860 Well, it makes sense in the terms that nobody wants to invest in Canada.
00:06:28.480 Obviously, the housing industry can't build houses on their own because the government gets in the way.
00:06:34.180 It's kind of like our pipeline.
00:06:35.660 Nobody wants to invest in it.
00:06:37.120 Canada is uninvestable, folks.
00:06:39.160 Welcome to liberal Canada.
00:06:42.060 But Carney, he's got another thing he likes to go to.
00:06:44.960 This is his favorite one, and it really doesn't accomplish much.
00:06:49.280 And it is counterintuitive and counterproductive to what really needs to get done.
00:06:54.020 But this is the one he likes to run to. 0.99
00:06:56.200 The Elbozos get all riled up as soon as he does this. 1.00
00:06:59.000 As soon as he says this, look, we're getting that guy down to the south. 0.94
00:07:02.940 he has to go after Donald Trump. Again, part of his modus operandi.
00:07:11.320 I would like to inform you that the teleprompter has ceased to function.
00:07:21.020 Unlike a certain world leader, I do not view this as a conspiracy.
00:07:26.920 And the response all around to this insult to the leader of the United States of America
00:07:32.420 the biggest economy in the world. Our biggest trading partner is laughs all around. Oh,
00:07:37.180 isn't this great? You know what Donald Trump does when you insult him like this?
00:07:41.320 Another 25% tariff, but the old bozos, they love it, folks. The poll numbers go up again.
00:07:48.000 Oh, and we're not drinking American booze. I mean, it's pathetic. Yeah, it was a story came 0.99
00:07:53.520 out. I think it was Global or CTV. Three out of four Canadians said they wouldn't drink American
00:07:58.580 booze if it came back to store shelves. I'll bet you before it was taken off the store shelves,
00:08:03.680 three out of four Canadians weren't drinking American booze. But let's move on to the next
00:08:07.660 thing because, you know, Carney is made out like he's some kind of a genius when it comes to
00:08:12.760 negotiating. Polyev has been absolutely on point the last couple of days. You got to hand it to a
00:08:18.140 guy who I don't like very much because he's coming into my province and meddling in what's going on
00:08:22.840 here. He wants to fight against the independence movement, which I so want, but he's a very smart
00:08:27.240 guy. People say Mark Carney, with all of his education, is incredibly smart. Is he a Rhodes
00:08:32.200 scholar? Can't remember. But I think Pierre Polyev is smarter than Mark Carney on most everything,
00:08:37.380 and that includes the economy. Because Mark Carney just doesn't seem to be able to negotiate.
00:08:42.540 It was his main job when he got elected back on April 28th of 2025. Here he is spitting fire
00:08:48.660 again, going after Carney with truth bomb after truth bomb after truth bomb. Short clip.
00:08:54.860 He promised he would have a deal by July 21st, 2025. He promised he would have elbows up. He promised he'd negotiate a win. Still no win, still no deal, still no elbows a year and a half later.
00:09:08.880 I don't understand the strategy of making concession after concession after concession
00:09:18.580 before even getting to the negotiating table.
00:09:22.660 To be clear, Mr. Carney is not holding out for a better deal.
00:09:26.780 We have a bad deal.
00:09:28.660 While he makes the concessions that you would normally take to the table to get something in return,
00:09:36.320 He backed down on the digital services tax, the Netflix tax.
00:09:41.700 He agreed to Mr. Trump's demands on military spending and counter tariffs.
00:09:47.300 Many of these things were going to have to happen.
00:09:49.900 But why not bring them to the bargaining table and get something in return for them?
00:09:57.060 Paliyev knocks it out of the park again.
00:09:59.120 And I think all of us will agree, it doesn't matter what side we're on,
00:10:03.080 that getting a trade deal with the United States is pretty important.
00:10:08.260 But the great negotiator, Mark Carney, just can't seem to get the job done.
00:10:12.620 But there is one thing that continues to be brought up over and over again
00:10:17.400 by Donald Trump and the United States administration
00:10:20.240 that could probably help us in this case to get the deal we really want.
00:10:25.800 In Canada, you know, we find that they're charging us over 200% for dairy products.
00:10:31.640 You know about that.
00:10:33.080 And when I left, we had that well taken care of.
00:10:35.980 But under Biden, they just kept raising it.
00:10:38.460 Very difficult to deal with the Canadian representatives.
00:10:43.820 250% for dairy products.
00:10:46.240 Tariff.
00:10:47.160 Dairy.
00:10:48.240 It's been a constant through this, but nothing's really been done about it.
00:10:52.760 You know, it's supply management.
00:10:54.660 You know, I've heard arguments from both sides on this.
00:10:57.440 If we get rid of supply management, nothing will change.
00:11:00.660 The prices of your dairy will remain the same.
00:11:02.840 I've complained about the price of cream here. It's now over $4 a liter in Canada for my friends
00:11:08.180 in the United States. I'm not sure that you're paying $4 a liter down there, a liter around the
00:11:13.020 size of a quart, for those of you who don't know. But it really bothers me that we pay so much for
00:11:17.700 dairy in this country. I've had other people say that if we get rid of supply management, it will
00:11:22.720 bring prices down. And that dairy is part of the supply management thing. And this is what Mark 0.63
00:11:29.020 Kearney had to say about supply management. I believe in supply management. It's important
00:11:34.800 in order to stabilize prices for Canadian consumers and also to protect the way of life
00:11:42.660 of small farms and our Canadian heritage. So supply management isn't going anywhere.
00:11:50.080 And to be fair, Pierre Polyev can't do anything about it either, nor would he.
00:11:54.460 But there was this from last year, you might remember. Senate passes bill to protect
00:11:58.800 supply management from any future trade deals. This next statement from Senator Paula Simons,
00:12:03.820 a leftist senator from Alberta, by the way, it does seem strange to allow a separatist party
00:12:08.520 to set Canada's national trade policy to such an extent. Actually, that's kind of a ridiculous 0.88
00:12:14.060 statement from the senator because, let's face it, this kind of thing was passed simply because 0.69
00:12:21.020 the conservatives and liberals desperately need votes in Quebec to stay in power or to get in
00:12:26.740 power. So they're not going to do anything about supply management, taking away one of the real
00:12:31.140 tools we have where we could negotiate with the United States to get a better deal. But Polyev's
00:12:36.420 right on the money. I mean, Carney has accomplished nothing when it comes to building things and he's
00:12:41.680 doing an awful job when it comes to negotiating. And who's getting attacked here? Who are they
00:12:47.100 going after in the media? It's a rigged game, folks. It's a rigged game for the liberals.
00:12:51.240 The liberals own the media, so all of the focus is on Pierre Polyev and getting rid of him.
00:12:57.880 Let me know what you think in the comments. If you liked the video, give it a thumbs up,
00:13:01.440 subscribe to the channel, ring the bell for notifications. I'll see you in the next one.
