Bring it home! Bring it home! Bring it home! Bring it home!
00:00:06.000
It is now time where we must decide whether we're going to choose a party that is asking for a fourth mandate
00:00:18.000
and that puts us in a weak economic position in face of the threats from Donald Trump
00:00:41.000
Who's ready to bring home the Canadian promise?
00:00:48.000
Noah Jarvis, True North. I'm here in Toronto where Pierre Poliev just held his kickoff rally
00:00:54.000
for the 2025 election campaign. Poliev hammered on issues like affordability, promising to get rid of the industrial carbon tax
00:01:06.000
Trump's tariffs and Carney's carbon tax will send hundreds of thousands of Canadian jobs moving south of the border
00:01:15.000
there will be a large sucking sound of Canadian jobs leaving the country if the Carney carbon tax on steel, on fertilizer, on aluminum
00:01:25.000
on basically every industrial product that we rely on for our modern civilization faces this new tax
00:01:35.000
I will axe the entire carbon tax law for everyone, for everything, for good, for real, for a change!
00:01:46.000
Pierre Poliev also hammered on issues like crime, promising so quote unquote jail not bail for repeat offenders
00:01:53.000
Poliev also talked about why he believes Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberals do not deserve a fourth term in office
00:02:02.000
The crowd was electric, I was told that around 2,500 people were in attendance
00:02:06.000
However, after I was given this estimate, hundreds more people filed into the room
00:02:10.000
you can, I guess that about 3,000 people were here today
00:02:15.000
all energetic, cheering very loudly, with chants of axe attacks and bring it home
00:02:24.000
It seems as if Pierre Poliev's campaign has started off on an energetic and loud note
00:02:30.000
Look at this! Amazing! My friends, I love you too!
00:02:37.000
Will Pierre Poliev be able to maintain the momentum and overtake the Liberals in the polls?
00:02:45.000
Or will Mark Carney be able to withstand the pressure that the Conservatives are applying and win a fourth consecutive term?
00:02:52.000
So what are your thoughts on the rally that you came up to?
00:02:54.000
Fantastic! Pierre said a lot of really good things
00:02:59.000
You know, he's the only one who's standing up to a lot of things going on right now
00:03:03.000
He's saying a lot of things that kind of are turning people and saying
00:03:09.000
but not just about the problems, it's also about the solutions
00:03:13.000
And now we're starting to come out with a lot of good solutions to bring back our country
00:03:19.000
You know, where you can unlock your door a little while
00:03:21.000
not worry about getting dragged out of your car
00:03:23.000
Yeah, we want to protect, you know, licensed firearm owners
00:03:39.000
So could you tell me how the Liberal government's gun grab has affected you personally?
00:03:46.000
They spent billions of dollars on this gun grab
00:03:48.000
and they haven't collected one firearm from a citizen
00:03:51.000
This is something where, you know, you can't have rampant crime happening in the streets
00:03:58.000
while completely disarming licensed and vetted citizens
00:04:04.000
So at the end of the day, you know, like Pierre says
00:04:07.000
you know, the Liberals are more after taking Grandpa Joe's hunting rifle
00:04:11.000
They want to protect turkeys from Canadians while unleashing criminals
1.00
00:04:24.000
You know, everyone says, you know, he's this banker
00:04:30.000
Okay, he's going to be the next Prime Minister and goes
00:04:37.000
If you want to look at where he's going to take Canada
00:04:42.000
The average person in the UK is $30,000 worse off than before Carney got in
00:04:50.000
Their streets are decimated, rampant with crime
00:04:57.000
That's exactly where Carney's going to bring Canada
00:05:03.000
Any closing thoughts or message you want to say to our viewers?
00:05:20.000
And they're going to have a career where that pays
00:05:24.000
You know, 30, 50 cents on every dollar that they work for
00:05:27.000
You know, we need to strengthen our country and our economy
00:05:32.000
What are your thoughts on the rally that you attended today?
00:05:45.000
So, what made you a peerfully conservative supporter?
00:06:07.000
So, what are some of the policies that Pierre talked about
00:06:39.000
I guess one of the biggest things from me is like...
00:07:19.000
Oh, he's a banker, but I think he's a rich elitist guy.
00:07:23.000
He's filthy rich. I'd like to know his assets, how rich he is.
00:07:26.000
I'm looking for a guy who's more middle class to run the country,
00:07:29.000
to know what the challenges are of housing and inflation.
00:07:39.000
So I'd like to see someone who's, you know, more middle class.
00:07:43.000
He understands the challenges of the common person.
00:07:49.000
Especially since he hasn't worked in Canada for the past 10 years.
00:07:55.000
Because like I said, I'll give Pauline a chance.
00:08:00.000
I'm not a diehard conservative, but I'm willing to give somebody a chance.
