Juno News - Will Trudeau make it to the next election？

00:00:00.000 welcome back to another episode of the northern dispatch it's been quite a week in canadian

00:00:15.280 politics justin trudeau has lost his most loyal and closest political ally the woman who was by

00:00:23.320 his side for the last nine years carrying his government's agenda christia freeland is gone

00:00:28.940 in a blaze of glory i should say in a scathing public statement which we are going to get to and

00:00:34.860 she's not the only cabinet minister who has left this week sean fraser i guess you could call him a

00:00:39.880 disgraced former minister who was responsible for the housing disaster and before that the

00:00:45.460 immigration disaster is also gone uh guys what a week here how much longer is justin trudeau going

00:00:51.620 to hold on to power oh that's the magical question right um you know i think his ego is going to make

00:00:59.980 it a lot a lot tougher for him to to actually depart um there seems to be something personal uh about uh

00:01:08.300 about him and and pier poliev yeah and the other problem is that before trudeau became leader of

00:01:15.100 the party the liberal party got rid of the function within their constitution that permissed them to

00:01:19.920 remove a leader um the only time that they can review leadership is after essentially a disastrous

00:01:25.720 incident such as a failed election failed by election etc well we'll have to see if uh if he

00:01:34.300 decides to hold on if he decides to go through this mutiny it'll just make for at least some

00:01:39.180 interesting content for us but unfortunately probably pretty rough results for the country before we get

00:01:44.820 into uh the meat and potatoes of the show today let's read some comments from the last episode

00:01:50.060 uh the first one here comes from linda watson 8312 she writes trump knows canadians want true dope

00:01:56.800 gone trump wants to help us not harm us i sure hope so because if he doesn't want to harm us it's not

00:02:03.920 like we can do much about that agreed the next comment is from a wifer stress 2824 it says

00:02:13.280 when you want to help people you tell them the truth when you want to help yourself you tell them

00:02:18.660 what they want to hear from thomas soul and we have daryl kenneth 9902 money for illegal immigrants

00:02:26.180 and housing but deducts taxes on disability benefits for those who paid into their pensions

00:02:31.440 for 40 years knocking it down to less than welfare recipients then pensioners have to go to welfare

00:02:37.240 for top ops to keep above the poverty line and you know we we hear about this every single day of

00:02:44.620 seniors skipping meals of seniors moving in with their their kids because they just can't afford

00:02:49.380 to live anymore and it's it's a sad state of affairs in canada well speaking of the sad state

00:02:55.160 of affairs that was what we were discussing last episode and we asked the question to all of you

00:03:00.460 watching if you think that justin trudeau is intentionally manipulating the economy for

00:03:05.600 political points i'm shocked about this result i really am 97 of you agreed wow i didn't see that

00:03:12.880 one coming yeah and that no could be a statistical anomaly i think those were oopses yeah i think so at

00:03:20.240 that point well the new poll question which is pinned to the top of this youtube video you can find in

00:03:26.500 the comment section the new poll question is will justin trudeau lead the liberal party into the next

00:03:32.640 election we will be we'll be announcing the results of that on january 9th because we are taking some

00:03:40.380 time away for the christmas break but we'll we'll be reading the results of that poll on january 9th

00:03:46.920 what do you guys think do you think that uh trudeau is going to lead the liberals in uh in 2025 for the

00:03:52.420 next election i think he's going to try i don't know if he's going to succeed but i think

00:03:56.460 he's going to try i think he's going to be facing immense pressure even over the holidays um i think

00:04:04.200 the closer we get to that uh to that inauguration day of donald trump the more pressure is going to

00:04:09.980 be ramping up and i think donald trump is just going to be poking him every single day just for

00:04:15.920 fun because that's what donald trump does and the canadian media is just going to go bananas every time

00:04:21.500 he does it so um that's the interesting thing about this whole dynamic is trump can poke uh

00:04:28.960 trudeau and there's nothing that trudeau can do about it absolutely nothing at all you know i i

00:04:34.880 thought that uh before the christian freeland debacle before this even worse mutiny that he's

00:04:41.920 now facing i did think that trudeau would hold on as leader and lead the party through but i just

00:04:47.200 don't see it at this point i don't see him sticking it out for the year just to get absolutely crushed

00:04:53.780 i think his ego i think he's a i'm going to give him a little bit of credit here potentially dangerous

00:04:58.440 but i'm going to say that he's smart enough to know that for his own ego he doesn't want to lose

00:05:03.260 right he'll want to go out on top as prime minister leave someone else to be the next kim 1.00

00:05:07.520 campbell leave them holding the bag and uh forced to take a massive out just so he can say

00:05:12.060 he went out on top and never lost but let's get into what has triggered all of this and what is

00:05:17.880 driving the news cycle and likely will be for the next month and that is christia freeland's

00:05:22.880 resignation we knew that she was under pressure right we knew that she was likely going to be

00:05:27.700 forced out of her job but nobody saw it coming on monday morning nobody saw it coming in the way

00:05:33.740 that it did with this very scathing public resignation letter calling out justin trudeau for playing

00:05:39.460 political games as she writes costly political gimmicks in response to the donald trump tariff 0.79

00:05:47.260 threat guys it feels like this donald trump tariff threat has been dominating this show since we

00:05:52.180 started it's crazy he's basically pulling strings in this country well i think uh i think a lot of

00:05:58.920 canadians forget what the donald trump error was the first you know four years it feels like so long

00:06:05.060 ago but it was only you know a little over four years ago that uh that he was in and he dominated

00:06:11.580 virtually all news cycles in north america and even around the world because you never knew what

00:06:19.140 he was going to do or say next and that was the thing about it but you know the whole thing about

00:06:25.400 this as well is that even even the circumstance around christia freeland and this zoom call that

00:06:33.540 she had with justin trudeau and the conversation that has been reported on by the global mail by

00:06:40.520 national post and and everybody else except cbc was that he had essentially said you're going to be

00:06:47.480 fired but you're going to be fired after you read the economic statement and then that position is going

00:06:52.580 to go to carney and then yesterday cbc was putting out this misinformation piece on the fact that

00:06:59.460 peer polyev was a lying politician trying to say this and she said that no credible journalist has

00:07:06.300 actually has actually reported on this it's like hello cbc do you not actually pay attention to what

00:07:12.620 your other peers are reporting because that's what he was going off of tanya do you think that christia

00:07:18.920 freeland took this opportunity to inflict maximum damage on justin trudeau that she timed this just so

00:07:26.880 that it would be as has been reported his worst day as prime minister well when we were discussing

00:07:33.060 this on northern perspective ryan had made the comment that he thinks she's doing this in an

00:07:39.080 effort to have a leadership bid and i mean you know the saying hell hath no fury like a woman scorned 1.00

00:07:46.140 so i think she went for maximum damage and if it is her intention to run as leader of the liberal party

00:07:51.280 she's trying to come out strong trying to come out as you don't get to tell me what to do you can't

00:07:57.700 replace me i'm going to replace you it's interesting you know uh ryan we we were reading reports from the

00:08:06.000 liberal christmas party which christia freeland attended with her family and the reporting was that

00:08:11.360 she was like a superstar in the room all these party staffers wanted to take selfies with her and shake 1.00

00:08:17.960 her hand and they gave her a standing ovation even in the caucus meeting they gave her a standing

00:08:22.800 ovation it looks as though there there could be a palace coup happening here we we don't usually think

00:08:30.280 about the liberal party outside of justin trudeau we're now getting that opportunity to see what

00:08:34.700 might happen uh do you think that she has any chance of succeeding as a potential liberal leader i don't see it

00:08:42.040 i think she thinks she does uh this just feeds into the i think how out of touch all of the cabinet is

00:08:51.420 because polling in terms of the probability of people wanting her as a as a candidate has never

00:08:59.140 been above 20 percent so you know the the metric for none of the above in terms of the potential

00:09:06.260 candidates for the next leader of the liberal party was at like 26 27 percent and all of the actual

00:09:12.540 candidates were below that but i think christia freeland thinks that she has she's made a very

00:09:18.500 brilliant maneuver here i think it was in terms of doing damage to justin trudeau and i think she's 1.00

00:09:24.760 trying to play this correctly uh in in that caucus meeting there was there was a a source in there that

00:09:31.280 actually said that she went up and hugged justin trudeau so i think she's trying to

00:09:35.000 be the be the bigger person trying to play the martyr and and to show that oh you know i'm just

00:09:41.440 another woman that uh that this fake feminist feminist is actually uh is actually damaging here 1.00

00:09:47.760 so i think she thinks she's going to be but yeah i agree with you i when it comes down to the actual

00:09:53.400 party voting for all bets are off because all of these potential candidates including mark carney nobody

00:10:00.220 wants them so it's going to be interesting to see who actually emerges on top yeah i think

00:10:04.980 that freeland and her supporters underestimate just how unpopular she is with the canadian

00:10:11.040 public i mean you may have their their core supporters like the people who are diehard liberals

00:10:16.660 who really want christia freeland in that role who really want a female prime minister but the rest of 1.00

00:10:23.580 us in the country really really dislike her i think the stats show that well and i just say you know

00:10:29.400 what if trudeau is is going to step down please give us christia freeland just from a news perspective

00:10:35.440 please put her in that role because that would essentially cement the liberals dropping into the 0.99

00:10:41.140 basement after the next election right and think about the damage that christia freeland would do if 1.00

00:10:47.400 she somehow ends up as as a prime minister for four months maybe even even fewer months than that she

00:10:54.060 still has to represent this country at the negotiating table across from donald trump who she accused of 1.00

00:11:00.520 being a tyrant while he was president the first time during the usmca negotiations she to me you know is

00:11:09.120 just nowhere near the top of my list for who i would want to be the the prime minister a temporary

00:11:16.400 prime minister you know i think about uh someone like dominic leblanc someone like uh eve uh not uh no

00:11:23.060 francois philippe champagne you know i mix up the french the quebecers sometimes i mix up their names

00:11:27.840 but those two guys have really escaped a lot of criticism they've managed to escape the attacks

00:11:35.480 uh from the liberal government's failures for the most part they usually never looked at as responsible

00:11:41.080 for liberal failures i think of the people that could take the job over

00:11:45.040 it looks as though uh dominic leblanc is probably going to be uh the uh the interim prime minister

00:11:50.680 in my opinion at least but let's let's look at what's going out what's going on here now the

00:11:55.600 fallout jagmeet singh is now calling for justin trudeau's resignation he called for it on monday

00:12:02.280 this is a big departure from what what has been reported in the past he's now completely flipped

00:12:08.500 what when is it when is uh when is a a confidence vote going to be called when is this guy going to

00:12:14.000 be forced to uh to face the music guys well it's it's just the the latest uh i would say i don't

00:12:25.160 even have words for jagmeet singh anymore in in his quote-unquote strategy because not even one week

00:12:30.140 before he voted to keep trudeau in power uh via the confidence vote and voted against his own words

00:12:36.140 and then not even days later the liberal government for the third time ordered a union back to work

00:12:42.520 through the cirb um and i think he is just trying to trying to get ahead of what he everyone can see

00:12:51.680 is a disaster uh for justin trudeau yet he's not calling for the liberal government to have an

00:12:57.660 election he just wants justin trudeau to step down so what that says to canadians is i'm okay with

00:13:02.780 everything the government has done it's just justin trudeau is the problem and he he is not seizing the

00:13:08.660 moment that he needs to to demonstrate himself to be a leader or to demonstrate himself to be what

00:13:14.300 he says he wants to be which is the next prime minister of canada but in terms of a confidence

00:13:20.160 vote it's going to depend on what types of votes end up coming in through the house because what

00:13:26.180 everyone needs to remember is just because we're going to the christmas break that doesn't mean the

00:13:30.300 house is not going to be seized when we come back so the question of privilege will continue on the

00:13:36.000 sdtc scandal if that is somehow dealt with there is at least one or two other questions or privileges

00:13:43.120 that the conservatives have lined up to continue to have the house seized so you may only have on a

00:13:49.200 scheduled opposition day from christia freeland you may have greg fergus have to actually schedule

00:13:55.020 something to do with the the finances or the budget or an opposition day in order for a confidence vote

00:14:00.780 to actually come about yeah but peter julian pretty much admitted that the ndp won't be ready to vote

00:14:06.940 non-confidence until late february early march i wonder why that is well and it was very very strange

00:14:14.400 because that was vastly different than what jagmeet was saying all he was saying is all options are on

00:14:20.160 the table but when cornered cbc actually made peter julian say well yeah yeah we would vote non-confidence

00:14:26.160 if trudeau was still around late february early march which strangely enough that's around jagmeet's

00:14:31.660 pension time now to play devil's advocate would it not be politically strategic for the ndp to just

00:14:40.420 ask for justin trudeau to resign because clearly a pierre pauliev government is going to do even worse

00:14:46.440 for the ndp agenda than a liberal government would even though it's unpopular they still have their own

00:14:51.960 interests they they know that they can get things done with the liberal government and they're not

00:14:56.600 going to get it with the pierre pauliev government at all so i mean of course he's of course he's not

00:15:01.580 going to call for an immediate election right well it all depends on what jagmeet Singh's end game is

00:15:08.380 and how much the ndp accepts reality because that's the one thing that's been missing from the ndp strategy

00:15:15.840 look at the bloc for example the bloc knows they are not going to be the majority party they

00:15:21.780 will never be the majority party the main goal of the bloc is to get the most seats that they can

00:15:27.620 and the most power that they can that is should be the equivalent goal of the ndp um it's it's

00:15:35.240 unrealistic for the ndp to expect that they're going to be winning an election in the next 10 or 15 years

00:15:42.600 in canada so the most that they can for is the most seats so what did the bloc do the bloc took an

00:15:48.680 opportunity when the ndp ripped up the agreement and they made a shrewd maneuver that they knew

00:15:55.060 wouldn't work in in terms of getting some of their bills passed but it demonstrated to their voters

00:16:00.880 that they tried to get something done what did that result in that resulted in increased polls

00:16:06.840 for the bloc and then when the liberals didn't hold up their end of the bargain like eblanchette knew

00:16:12.360 they wouldn't what ended up happening is they stuck to their guns kept their word and then said

00:16:17.600 now we're going to try and bring down the government and the bloc has been soaring high

00:16:21.300 ever since because they're demonstrating to their voters we will say something we will do it and we

00:16:26.460 will keep our word then you have jagmeet singh who he's been flip-flopping so much nobody believes a

00:16:32.820 word that he says anymore from a strategic perspective if i were advising them i would say

00:16:38.120 listen you are tied to the wagon of the liberal brand and whatever they do from here on in you are going

00:16:45.260 down with them i would have advised them last march to get out of this and use pharmacare as their

00:16:51.020 election platform now they don't have an election platform at all except for this take the gst off of

00:16:56.280 everything and even then that's going to hurt them because they agreed with the liberals and voted them

00:17:01.700 for this fake gst holiday so in terms of strategy the ndp is sunk i think the most realistic

00:17:09.860 reason why they're waiting until next next spring is to try and get more canadians onto the next phase

00:17:16.560 of the dental care program so jagmeet can say see see we will bring more of this if you bring us into

00:17:21.940 power and that's all i got i think the ndp missed the boat they should strike while there is the most

00:17:27.940 turmoil within the liberal government because the liberals and the ndp are both on the left side of the

00:17:32.460 political spectrum if the ndp worked really hard they would be able to steal voters away from the

00:17:38.300 liberals especially because the party is in complete chaos right now um i think for the ndp their

00:17:44.100 strategy needs to be to get as many seats as possible maybe if they campaigned really hard

00:17:49.080 they could even be the official opposition i don't know if they can do it anymore if they're if they're

00:17:53.920 not waiting now like they need to strike while the iron is hot while the liberal government and the

00:17:58.720 liberal party is a complete disaster and it seems like they're still willing to support this liberal

00:18:03.480 party for some mysterious reason until the end of february or early march and that goes back to

00:18:08.540 your point harrison about if jagmeet doesn't want pierre polyev to be in government then what he should

00:18:14.740 be doing is trying like heck to get those other left-leaning voters away from the liberals and vote

00:18:21.600 for the ndp so he can at least build the party up to a degree where it's large enough to be able to

00:18:27.500 realistically hold a government to account you know you look at justin trudeau and you watch how

00:18:33.740 he has responded to this uh mutiny round two because remember he faced he faced one after the

00:18:40.400 st paul's toronto st paul's disaster this one is much worse you look at his recent reaction you look

00:18:47.300 at what he's been saying at the liberal christmas party and at the laurier club fundraiser i don't

00:18:53.400 think he's going anywhere anytime soon he starts to bring out the wedge issues again when in doubt

00:18:58.140 for the liberals start talking about abortion that's it seems to be that seems to be the play

00:19:02.440 with this guy and i honestly i find that i find that very gross because no one in canada is talking

00:19:08.000 about abortion the conservatives aren't talking about this but they just continue to use it as a

00:19:13.600 weapon to attack conservatives justin trudeau uses it to wedge canadians and i find that it's so nasty

00:19:20.200 it's this issue that canadians aren't really concerned with at the moment because we know

00:19:26.200 that it's protected by our constitution um the liberals will trot this out anytime that they need

00:19:31.560 to get a leg up on the conservatives but the conservatives are not looking to ban abortion

00:19:36.100 they're not looking to restrict it they're not looking to legislate it in any manner so the fact

00:19:40.600 that the liberals are are doing this it's like this boogeyman issue that i think they're using to

00:19:45.900 galvanize their current base what they should be doing is looking at issues that affect a broader

00:19:51.860 range of canadians and use those issues and talk about those issues and how they're going to fix those

00:19:58.740 things and maybe draw in more people who have been liberal in the past but are currently voting for

00:20:04.960 conservative because of the current state of the country well and i think the reason why this

00:20:10.860 this this ace in the hole uh that they've been using to deal with the last conservative attempts

00:20:18.720 to to overthrow them it hasn't worked is because the affordability crisis is so bad um that is what

00:20:27.020 people are focused on and this has come out of the blue right so it's been affordability foreign

00:20:33.180 interference affordability affordability affordability and then all of a sudden the liberals say

00:20:37.020 but worry about abortion right it it is so transparent that this is nothing more than a political wedge

00:20:44.960 issue that they're trying to create and canadians aren't buying it anymore you know you look at you

00:20:50.120 look at the the last public statements that we have received from justin trudeau and from pierre

00:20:55.300 polyev justin trudeau is talking about you know the the danger that women face due to a lack of access

00:21:04.100 to abortion which is not true there are no limits on abortion so he's talking about something that

00:21:08.740 no canadian is actually facing no issue any canadian is facing and polyev is talking about you know an

00:21:14.420 interaction with a waitress and an interaction with a uh with a guy who works at uh at labat talking

00:21:20.820 about the difficulties that they are facing in reality not some fic not some fictitious scenario that

00:21:28.100 has been trotted out by justin trudeau but real canadians suffering from real issues caused by the

00:21:34.500 government it couldn't be more clear that they're fishing for anything they can get right now and no

00:21:40.100 surprise that in the lead up to uh that well on the anniversary of the ecole polytechnique massacre the

00:21:47.860 liberals bring out another gun ban and once they ended up banning you know world war ii era anti-aircraft

00:21:54.500 guns that no one actually owns and are and are are already illegal so it's obvious these guys are

00:22:00.420 are struggling they are desperate and they've got nothing to they're just trying out they're trying

00:22:04.660 out their usual wedge issues well and this just goes to to show how effective that pierre and his team

00:22:15.460 have been at controlling the narrative that comes out of their caucus because what ends up killing

00:22:21.060 political parties it's a scandal it's somebody makes a big misstep and then your opponents capitalize

00:22:26.660 all over it so um there hasn't really been anything that the liberals have been able to capitalize on

00:22:33.780 so they've just resorted to the same old liberal tactics we just talked about that abortion that hasn't

00:22:39.380 worked and so they've been trying to just manufacture a scandal out of anything and nothing has been

00:22:45.700 sticking because they are counting on pierre polyev to respond to this instead of continuing to attack

00:22:51.460 him like john rustad did and a lot of a lot of political analysts are saying that's why john rustad

00:22:57.300 didn't win the bc election is because he started going on the defense rather than on offense the conservatives

00:23:03.060 haven't done that um brilliantly pierre is the one that keeps attacking and if there is any defense to be run

00:23:09.700 he he lets the rest of his team kind of handle that down down the line but his main his main job is

00:23:17.220 to go after justin trudeau and the liberals and that's what he's continued to do so the fact that

00:23:21.620 he's gone two years two whole years and given the the liberals virtually nothing to work with that is

00:23:29.300 frustrating the heck out of them and you can see it whenever mark miller talks he is just so irritated

00:23:35.140 just uh just the other day he was on ctv and he called pierre an irritating sob like who uses that

00:23:42.660 language that's completely unparliamentary so they are so frustrated that they can't find

00:23:47.780 any wiggle room and they've tried everything under the sun and their polls aren't moving it's just a

00:23:52.420 state of canada they're tired of this government they're tired of justin trudeau and they want to

00:23:56.580 change i want to ask you this um tanya why do you think it is that we haven't seen some of these

00:24:02.820 liberal mp backbenchers chad collins anthony house father patrick wheeler sean casey who have

00:24:10.900 been openly calling for trudeau's resignation who have no respect for justin trudeau they're not

00:24:15.860 concerned about their jobs they they're just trying to basically throw gasoline on the fire

00:24:20.100 why do you think it is that they haven't some of them haven't crossed the floor to join the

00:24:23.460 conservatives i don't know there's so many factors um we had spoken to someone who used to be a liberal mp

00:24:32.660 and had told us it's not so easy to just cross the floor you have to worry about your staff number one

00:24:39.620 and i mean these staff they are wonderful human beings trying to do a job for the country trying

00:24:46.260 to do a job for their mp and they build these strong relationships and to just say okay well i've decided

00:24:53.140 to leave the party and leave you which you may or may not have a job after this i think that's hard

00:24:59.860 on a personal level well and the other the other reason is because further to uh to the staffers

00:25:08.100 actually work for them in in their parliament office you have to consider the electrodistrictor

00:25:12.340 association that actually put them there as well because they've been using funding and resources

00:25:17.700 up to that point and then to all of a sudden say okay liberal eda i'm out of here um you're you're

00:25:25.060 really going to burn a lot of bridges and you don't even know if the conservatives are even going

00:25:29.380 to take you i think i think if any of them were going to try pierre and the conservatives would just

00:25:35.620 shut it down because they would be immediately criticized and open themselves to criticism from

00:25:40.740 the bloc and from the ndp in the following way wait a minute pierre you've been saying that all these

00:25:45.860 liberals have been voting on the carbon tax voting on this voting on that and create all these policies

00:25:50.340 you just accepted one of those people that has been voting for this this whole time into the

00:25:55.540 conservative party so what message does that send to canadians that you would be willing to accept

00:26:01.060 one of these liberals that you've been criticizing so um i think that's probably one of the reasons they

00:26:06.900 haven't um as as tony said there's many many reasons so i don't think it's a possibility well and

00:26:12.020 above and beyond that um the conservatives have already chosen their candidates for many many of the

00:26:17.860 ridings i know all of the ones here in hamilton except for one that i know of um do have a

00:26:23.460 candidate chosen so if you have some liberal now that wants to come and be part of the party that

00:26:29.060 is um in a writing that's chosen a candidate already what are you supposed to say to that

00:26:33.700 candidate you know all the time and money that you spend on your nomination well too bad because

00:26:37.700 we've got a different guy um i don't think that's fair to the candidates who have worked very

00:26:42.500 hard for the conservative party from the beginning and are just waiting for that writ to draw

00:26:47.860 right and and so what do you what do you guys think is is going to happen um say let's say uh

00:26:53.860 justin trudeau does lead the liberals into the next election i imagine it's going to be a very

00:27:00.020 a very uh what's the best word to describe it uh it won't be competitive that's for sure but it will be

00:27:06.100 it will be nasty i think and there will be lots of attacks there will be some surprises some stories

00:27:11.860 uh about both candidates both leaders but what are you guys looking to see and what do you guys

00:27:17.060 think is going to happen in uh i presume in october i can't imagine the liberals are going to try to

00:27:21.780 pull the plug early on an inevitable defeat so let's say it is in october what do you guys think

00:27:26.100 is going to happen well i think that um the one thing canadians need to be prepared for

00:27:33.300 is the numbers the way they are in the polls now that's not what they're going to end up at election

00:27:39.220 day uh i think most people in the news understand that because that's just the nature of campaigns

00:27:43.780 but canadians that have been watching the polls maybe some of you for the first time you need to

00:27:48.660 understand that those numbers will narrow so um people don't need to be concerned about that

00:27:54.580 because the numbers are going to be closer as things move around but i think i think you're going to see

00:28:00.580 some really desperate attacks from from the liberals i think you're going to see um pierre probably at

00:28:09.060 his best in in antagonizing justin trudeau through this i think justin trudeau's i think he's going to

00:28:16.660 be very frustrated and you you may even see some meltdowns from him at some of his events because

00:28:21.460 he's used to campaigning going in doing fun things do it being the hip guy but the problem is is he is so

00:28:28.500 disliked now that he's not going to get that same response and i think he's going to get continually

00:28:35.140 frustrated as the campaign moves on and even if he wins wins his seat which he's expected to i think

00:28:43.540 you will see him see how the election unfolds he'll probably resign his seat after he wins and then he

00:28:51.060 will fade into obscurity unfortunately until until if there is an rcmp investigation that does continue

00:28:58.020 on the snc lavalent obstruction of justice justice charge which there is no statute of a limitation

00:29:03.540 i honestly don't think it's going to go to october of next year even nick nanos is saying it's not

00:29:08.500 going to go to october of next year and uh nanos polling is generally liberal leaning so um if he's

00:29:14.660 saying it i believe it um i think that it's it's the ground game is going to be what sets this apart

00:29:23.540 and canadians can help the eda of their choice whether that's conservative liberal ndp etc by getting

00:29:29.940 involved in your eda and going door knocking and helping and volunteering that's what's going to

00:29:34.580 make this election is boots on the ground you know the 2021 election was so nasty from justin trudeau

00:29:42.580 the liberal tactics of wedging canadians using the vaccine to wedge canadians um and using abortion to

00:29:50.500 wedge canadians it was so nasty and disappointing to watch i just hope that the the party leaders can

00:29:59.220 actually fight each other with some with with some level of respect for the voter and not and not

00:30:06.820 just intentionally trying to burn the country down to get the result they want i'm i'm really hoping

00:30:11.860 that both party leaders can do this with some respect for the electorate and not just try to

00:30:18.020 divide families and divide households like like what we saw in the last election we'll have to leave it

00:30:24.500 there we'll talk about it much more as we as the new year progresses but until then thank you all for

00:30:31.220 watching we will see you next week
