Juno News - The left has another meltdown over Pierre Poilievre

00:00:00.000 well the left in Canada are in complete meltdown mode these days over the possibility that one day

00:00:12.620 one day that nasty mean evil Pierre Polyev might become their prime minister and between you and

00:00:19.580 me they're not doing a very good job at hiding it the left-wing Laurentian legacy media types

00:00:24.480 you know the ones they're back to their old tricks this week instead of attacking Pierre Polyev

00:00:28.440 instead of attacking Polyev's ideas because they're unable to it appears what they're now doing

00:00:33.460 is noting that there were too many white men at Polyev's rallies yeah that's it there's just too

00:00:38.620 many whites at Polyev's rallies we know that line of attack worked so well for them when they tried 1.00

00:00:43.260 to do that against the freedom convoy what does it say sorry so it says F your white nationalist agenda

00:00:52.220 I am not a white this is nothing to do about white this is nothing to do with truckers this is about

00:00:59.980 freedom for all of Canadians well once again just like they did during the conservative leadership

00:01:04.580 race they're now going back to this saying Polyev is attracting too many white men tough to believe

00:01:11.620 that that is where we're at these days but it looks as though that's all they've got drop a like in the

00:01:16.280 video help us up with subscribing to the true north youtube channel and the comment question for the

00:01:19.900 episode is this with everything going on right now with resignations left right and center it appears

00:01:25.300 do you think Justin Trudeau is going to call an early election this year let me know in the comments

00:01:30.460 and let's get into it in Canadian politics there are many issues that two people can fall on opposite

00:01:34.860 sides of and nobody is technically right or wrong they're debatable but there are also undeniable

00:01:39.940 realities one of those realities is that Pierre Polyev gets big crowds and he gets those big crowds

00:01:45.660 across the country whether it's in a conservative stronghold or in a traditionally liberal area

00:01:49.880 that has been a big problem however for laurentian left-wing legacy media reading types who have done

00:01:57.160 their absolute best to try and justify how it could be possible that Pierre Polyev is getting such big

00:02:03.180 turnout at his rallies now as much as people want to try and downplay crowd size you try and say that

00:02:08.640 crowd size is not emblematic of real support real electoral support the reality is a large crowd is

00:02:15.480 intimidating for an opposition in a large supportive and very happy crowd is a lot better well then

00:02:22.280 maybe this

00:02:23.880 so over the weekend Pierre Polyev held a rally in Windsor Ontario a traditionally blue-collar town a labor

00:02:44.440 town and look at the turnout of this rally this is a serious crowd as the Windsor Star reported

00:02:49.740 Polyev rally draws a large crowd to Koboto Club federal conservative leader Pierre Polyev was

00:02:55.720 center stage Saturday surrounded by a large crowd for a town hall rally at the Koboto Club the large

00:03:01.520 crowd pressed shoulder to shoulder in an overcrowded room cheered loudly throughout the rally some waved

00:03:07.240 Canadian flags some held up signs in support of Polyev and against Trudeau and COVID-19 vaccinations

00:03:12.820 and then there was this paragraph that I thought was interesting there were some people wearing

00:03:16.800 obscenity-laden anti-Trudeau shirts or hats with American or Confederate flags and other extreme right-wing

00:03:23.700 symbols such as Trump North which I find funny because I've been to a lot of these events I've been to rallies

00:03:28.920 I've been to these protests I've never actually seen a Trump North flag or hat but anyway I guess uh I guess

00:03:35.260 there are still some new things out there but you can already see it right you can see what they're trying to do

00:03:39.780 they're trying to paint the image that Pierre Polyev is attracting the small fringe minority that hold those

00:03:46.280 unacceptable views and that they're too white they're too nasty and you can see exactly what the media is

00:03:53.100 trying to do well sure enough that was exactly what took place on Twitter as the Laurentian left-wing 0.98

00:03:58.940 Twitterati took that message and completely embarrassed themselves saying that there are too many white men at

00:04:05.440 this rally to try and justify what is clearly to them very intimidating a large crowd of Canadians

00:04:11.500 excited and galvanized around an opposition leader they're now trying to demonize that crowd for being

00:04:17.700 too white and too male well Dean Blundell a disgraced former radio host who now spends his days as a

00:04:23.140 professional Twitter troll took to Twitter and wrote this every white person at a Polyev event is there 0.89

00:04:29.220 because they think hashtag PP will protect their white privilege because they told them Justin Trudeau is 0.99

00:04:35.340 taking it away it's this easy to astroturf dumb white people with the education of a hammer what do 0.98

00:04:41.420 you really think about your fellow countrymen there Dean I wouldn't want you to be holding back at all 0.99

00:04:45.320 Michael D'Adder the cringeworthy cartoonist for the Washington Post who always tries to paint Pierre

00:04:50.720 Polyev as some Donald Trump of Canada he took to Twitter and wrote this he's got it locked up if only

00:04:56.440 white people are allowed to vote and then this one from the Toronto Sun of all places wrote this

00:05:01.140 only if all women in Canada die first friend they can't attack Pierre Polyev they can't attack

00:05:07.100 Pierre Polyev's ideas right now and frankly it's getting pretty tough to defend the state of this

00:05:12.460 country so of course what are they going to do what are the Laurentian left-wing legacy media reading

00:05:17.780 types going to do of course they're going to do what they did during the Freedom Convoy which worked

00:05:21.940 out so well for them just look at this logic for a second Darshan Maharaja who I'm just going to assume

00:05:27.360 is probably not white wrote this out of genuine curiosity in your opinion what is the motivation

00:05:32.940 for non-white people to attend Mr. Polyev's events slash rallies and to show just how clear succinct 0.94

00:05:40.040 and well thought through Dean Blundell's position on Pierre Polyev's rallies is he wrote this as

00:05:46.160 justification for why a non-white person might support Pierre Polyev confusion ideological alignment

00:05:52.920 and gaslighting oh yeah a non-white person would only find themselves at a Pierre Polyev event

00:05:58.660 because they're confused because maybe their GPS took them on the wrong turn and they decided well

00:06:03.480 well I'm just going to go into this event and see what happens and it's definitely not because 67%

00:06:08.100 of Canadians think the country is broken right now the majority of Canadians think we're in a recession

00:06:12.480 right now it's definitely not that it's just because these non-whites are confused that's exactly it

00:06:18.520 so as we know the legacy media first tried this act they first tried the Polyev supporters are too

00:06:24.180 white and too male act back when Polyev was running away with the conservative leadership race they

00:06:29.160 could see then that Pierre Polyev was going to be a political problem for Justin Trudeau so what they

00:06:33.900 immediately did was try to paint the narrative that Pierre Polyev is really just dog whistling to racist

00:06:39.120 whites so when I went to a Pierre Polyev rally during the conservative leadership race a few months ago

00:06:43.420 I asked an Asian Canadian what he thought of the legacy media trying to paint Polyev's rallies as a

00:06:50.200 some sort of glorified white nationalist get-together

00:06:54.000 well I mean noted white person here

00:06:56.880 obviously supports Pierre Polyev but I think it's nonsense

00:07:01.200 you know it's prominent Sikh conservative MPs Tim Upple and Josh Rajnallon support him

00:07:07.760 uh LGBTQ MPs like Eric Duncan and Melissa Lansman endorsed Pierre Polyev so to 0.60

00:07:13.940 equate that his movement is uh just a bunch of white supremacists is just complete nonsense and uh

00:07:20.240 it's only going to hurt divide the party we need to come together and defeat Justin Trudeau whatever 0.97

00:07:25.400 the next election is

00:07:26.540 we're now in the second phase of the Twitterati and the media trying to paint Polyev's rallies as a

00:07:31.040 gathering of angry white men but during that first phase back in April my colleague at True

00:07:35.720 North Rupa Subramania brilliantly put down this argument in her column in the National Post

00:07:40.380 this is reminiscent of the commentary on the Freedom Convoy which similarly observed that

00:07:44.940 many of those showing up to join the protest were white implying a lack of diversity in the supporters

00:07:50.100 of the convoy the implied guilt by association is a classic tactic of the left the objective is

00:07:56.000 clearly to imply if not state explicitly that a gathering of mostly white folks is somehow racist

00:08:01.760 or even white supremacist the absurdity of this argument is easy to spot if for example you attend

00:08:08.060 classical music concerts in Canada the majority of people in the audience tend to be white and

00:08:12.780 middle-aged with a smattering of younger people and people of color does this mean that the concert

00:08:17.300 is therefore racist the idea that the rightness of a cause is to be judged by the demographic makeup

00:08:21.800 of those who appear to support it a common assumption on the left is itself racist but if you really

00:08:27.200 are a true believer in what Justin Trudeau says if you really are one of those left-wing Laurentian

00:08:31.320 legacy media reading types look at these crowd sizes you're seeing from Pierre Polyev seeing crowd

00:08:36.740 sizes like this in Barrie Ontario for example in Calgary in Vancouver in Cambridge Ontario and in

00:08:43.340 Peterborough it would really get to you add on top of that the reality that Polyev can draw huge

00:08:48.940 crowds in towns that Justin Trudeau would get heckled out of just like he did in Hamilton it would really

00:08:54.040 freak you out and this meltdown that we're seeing from left-wingers in Canada comes on the heels of a

00:08:58.880 string of resignations which does not look good for Justin Trudeau as we know last month New Zealand

00:09:04.360 Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern abruptly announced her resignation last Friday Toronto Mayor John Tory

00:09:10.440 announced his plans to resign and yesterday RCMP Commissioner Brenda Luckey abruptly resigned as well

00:09:16.780 with this string of resignations including the resignation of Scotland's woke First Minister Nicola Sturgeon

00:09:22.240 a true believer in Justin Trudeau's woke ideology Patrick O'Flynn of the Telegraph in the UK wrote this

00:09:29.220 First Jacinda Ardern now Nicola Sturgeon Justin Trudeau will be next he writes

00:09:36.040 I foresaw the Scottish National Party leaders fall and the next victim of go woke go broke is already on the

00:09:43.220 conveyor belt to their political demise after Ardern and Sturgeon the fickle finger of fate would seem now to be

00:09:50.080 pointing at the leader of the selfie taking summit Rat Pack himself Canada's ultra woke Justin Trudeau and

00:09:57.060 so there we have it are things moving in the direction of a Justin Trudeau resignation

00:10:02.060 definitely something to consider as it appears journalists across the pond are starting to place their bets

00:10:07.800 ratio of the week time we're going back to an old winner if you've been watching the show for quite a while

00:10:12.060 you will know that Jagmeet Singh is a repeat winner of the ratio of the week award the reality is that

00:10:18.040 Jagmeet Singh gets ratioed on pretty much every single tweet he puts out so it's not very difficult

00:10:23.040 for us but we do try and make the competition a bit more tough so he doesn't always win but

00:10:27.560 this one is really deserving check it out while Justin Trudeau and Pierre Pauly have argued about who's

00:10:33.020 causing inflation working families went hungry and turned to food banks in record numbers Loblaws made

00:10:38.380 one and a half billion dollars in profits 38 million dollars per week 224,425 dollars and 55 cents per

00:10:47.300 hour 62 dollars and 35 cents per second now I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that none of

00:10:53.380 you watching are math savant so you might not have caught Jagmeet Singh's little calculation error there

00:10:58.700 but sure enough Twitter managed to catch it and they slapped a fact check on Jagmeet Singh's tweet

00:11:05.020 because it turns out his little math exercise there was a bit off so take a look at this Twitter had

00:11:10.580 to add a context bar and correct the math for Jagmeet Singh how embarrassing how pathetic is that

00:11:16.540 this post contains math errors Twitter writes it's not 38 million dollars a week as Jagmeet Singh writes what

00:11:23.240 it really is is 28 million dollars a week it's not 224,000 dollars per hour as Jagmeet Singh writes

00:11:29.840 what it really is is 171,000 dollars an hour and it's not 62 dollars a second it's actually 47 dollars

00:11:38.000 a second not to say that the point you're trying to make isn't valid although I will argue that Pierre

00:11:42.840 Pauly was not part of the problem at least try and make sure the math is right otherwise you just look

00:11:49.320 like you have no idea what you're talking about well Jagmeet Singh got ratioed for this as you could

00:11:53.680 have guessed he is the winner of the prize 1,774 replies to 1,202 likes Sarah Fisher the director

00:12:02.060 of communications for the conservative party got in on Jagmeet Singh writing this while the leader of

00:12:06.360 the official opposition has been telling the Trudeau liberals to cut back their wasteful and inflation

00:12:10.380 inducing spending you've been propping up that government and doubling down on the call for more

00:12:14.800 inflationary spending don't delude yourself the parody account 222 minutes who's quite a good

00:12:20.840 follow wrote this on Jagmeet Singh's post the NDP is not a serious party and just showed the fact that

00:12:26.960 his numbers were just a little bit off and this comment that got quite a few likes why are you

00:12:31.580 going after private businesses that provide jobs seriously get a life somewhere else all right that's

00:12:37.380 gonna do it for us this week on the show I'll catch you tomorrow on fake news friday my name is

00:12:41.300 Harrison Faulkner and this is ratio
