Have you ever seen someone's head explode on live television?
00:00:05.040
This week, Pierre Poliev made waves by suggesting that Justin Trudeau was a criminal
00:00:08.980
and should be sent to prison for crimes he committed while sitting in office.
00:00:13.260
Naturally, the left-wing establishment is in full-on panic mode right now.
00:00:17.920
To start off, I'm going to show you the clip that caused all this drama.
00:00:21.100
Many of the scandals of the Trudeau era should have been involved jail time.
00:00:25.420
I mean, Trudeau broke the criminal code when he took a free vacation from someone with
00:00:31.720
It's just like it's right there in the criminal code.
00:00:33.800
If the RCMP had been doing its job and not covering up for him, then he would have been
00:00:40.880
Then again, he probably violated the criminal code and the S&C-Lavalin scandal.
00:00:46.560
These would normally have led to criminal charges, but of course, the RCMP covered it all up.
00:00:51.580
And the leadership of the RCMP is, frankly, just despicable when it comes to enforcing
00:01:01.440
And in cases like that, I would report them to the police.
00:01:11.740
Well, hopefully it doesn't happen that nobody actually puts you in a position.
00:01:15.240
It's not going to happen in our case because we're not going to hire people who are there
00:01:19.960
Now, that's one of my favorite clips from Polyev.
00:01:22.520
I wish he would say stuff like that more often.
00:01:27.680
Polyev's a strong dude, and he's not one to give in to the woke mob.
00:01:31.280
He doubled down on his comments during a recent press conference, and I'll show you that.
00:01:35.160
On Thursday, Polyev was asked if he thinks his criticism is appropriate and if he'd take
00:01:45.240
Obviously, Justin Trudeau violated Section 121 of the criminal code when he accepted a
00:01:53.280
quarter million dollar vacation from someone who had asked for him to give a $10 million
00:02:00.580
The RCMP's own documents revealed that there were grounds to believe that fraud had happened.
00:02:10.180
And yet, even though he broke the criminal code, the brass of the RCMP said that they could
00:02:19.160
not, quote, productively pursue an investigation.
00:02:21.880
If the RCMP Commissioner is now saying that he wants to open that investigation, we're prepared
00:02:28.540
to hand over all the evidence of Mr. Trudeau's criminal code violations.
00:02:33.240
Now, the literal medium, they're having a full-on meltdown over this.
00:02:37.260
CTV actually put out a full episode just on Polyev's comments.
00:02:41.320
Now, before I show you that, I've noticed that my videos aren't getting as much traction as they
00:02:45.620
If you see this part, don't forget to like and subscribe, and let me know whether you saw
00:02:54.480
So why is Polyev raising this issue again years later?
00:03:02.620
Sabrina Grover was a federal liberal candidate in the 2021 election.
00:03:06.120
She's senior advisor at North Star Public Affairs.
00:03:09.100
Melanie Paradis is a former communications director to Erin O'Toole.
00:03:15.020
Former interim NDP national director Carl Belanger is here.
00:03:18.540
He is now the president of Distraction Strategies.
00:03:21.000
And we also have CTV national news correspondent, Abigail Beeman.
00:03:26.060
And Abigail, you've been working on this story all day long.
00:03:30.860
What struck me, Mike, so far covering this story was how hard it has been to get a conservative
00:03:36.000
who wants to speak on the record, on camera, about this.
00:03:39.100
I don't think I've had so many rejections to interview requests on this one.
00:03:43.440
Well, of course, they rejected your request to do an interview.
00:03:46.140
You're not going to report on the news honestly, sweetheart.
00:03:48.940
Behind the scenes, you know, it's a different story.
00:03:51.060
And there are obviously different camps, different reactions.
00:03:53.280
But a political hand grenade is one of the on background comments that I got from someone
00:04:02.980
So there are some who believe that the opposition leader has gone too far in these comments,
00:04:12.360
Case in point, when these so-called journalists don't have anything to report, they just make
00:04:18.000
I'm pretty sure no sitting conservative politician objects to the idea of having Justin Trudeau
00:04:24.380
There's not a sitting politician that would say something like that because they know
00:04:29.660
And I, for one, I really like the fact Paulyev said that.
00:04:32.920
When he says stuff like that, I like him more and more.
00:04:35.560
And some who believe that that is veering too close to US-style politics, whereas liberals
00:04:42.020
on the other side have been publicly condemning these comments.
00:04:46.280
And that comparison to Trump, they feel has served them well before.
00:04:51.100
So they're happy to talk about this story and quick to jump on that angle.
00:04:55.520
But sort of mixed reactions among the conservatives that I've spoken to in terms of why and how
00:05:03.660
And Mel, I have a feeling you'll agree that it is some mixed reaction to it.
00:05:08.400
So I guess the question, you know, sort of playing off of what Abigail said, why bring
00:05:15.760
So I've been racking my brain to try to think about what the strategy was here.
00:05:21.540
And there doesn't always have to be a strategy behind me sometimes.
00:05:26.760
You know, conservatives are really good at fighting the last war.
00:05:35.460
And this interview was really a greatest hits replay of all of the things that upset the
00:05:51.000
Then the comments about the RCMP were really about the leadership under Brenda Luckey, who
00:06:01.060
I think they're worth mentioning, I think, but like none of them made anybody stop voting
00:06:08.200
Most Canadians have memory hold Justin Trudeau.
00:06:11.860
All they care about is when he is sighted on a yacht with Katy Perry now.
00:06:16.900
And so I would just like to urge conservatives to please stop talking about Justin Trudeau,
00:06:22.100
because every time you do, all you are doing is contrasting him with Mark Carney.
00:06:30.000
I think this does help conservatives, but I will say she's right about one thing.
00:06:36.040
These comments came when Polly was doing a podcast and he was doing what he normally does.
00:06:41.540
And when he says things, the things that he's saying are true.
00:06:45.280
Justin Trudeau, at least in my opinion, is a criminal and committed crimes when he was
00:06:52.160
The real story is that if the RCMP did its job many years ago, we wouldn't even have
00:06:59.820
And I hesitated making this panel about why former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was wearing
00:07:06.520
But that, I think, is going to take a whole hour.
00:07:10.300
And maybe it's, you know, power play after dark.
00:07:13.560
That is a show's suggestion that I have that I have to talk to people at CTV about.
00:07:18.480
But, Sabrina, it feels like this is a gift to the Liberals when there are so many other
00:07:27.640
Like, maybe Pierre should call the RCMP for a wellness check.
00:07:31.800
Or maybe the Conservative Party should call the RCMP for a wellness check on Pierre.
00:07:44.960
I think Paulyev should also consider putting her in jail.
00:07:47.520
This is so far from being relevant or something that people are talking about.
00:07:56.740
The only possible thing I can think about that is getting this, you know, this line of
00:08:03.260
topic or this line of thinking back on track is like, is he afraid of the leadership review
00:08:09.480
Is he trying to reactivate a base that maybe is flowing away from him?
00:08:15.300
Is he trying to, you know, pick that fight that didn't even exist in the last election
00:08:23.340
Like, that is the only possible angle that I can see for Pierre going down this path.
00:08:30.560
It doesn't attack a budget that's coming in two weeks that you would really think that
00:08:34.300
they would be spending their whole entire, you know, media cycle on.
00:08:42.180
And Carl, to Sabrina's point, I mean, where he did it, how he's doing it, and why he's
00:08:47.840
And it all kind of starts to point in a direction of, does he worry that there's a part of the
00:08:53.400
base that he's starting to lose and he's, or he needs to sort of get excited about to
00:08:58.720
come out to that leadership convention and to make sure that he has a big number?
00:09:05.720
Uh, but to me, it's just, he was amongst friends that believe the same stuff he believes
00:09:12.400
I don't know that we have come here and said the same things to you, but he did because
00:09:16.560
he was comfortable and they believe that stuff and he believes that stuff.
00:09:22.820
I mean, that's, that's a ledge that you put yourself out on.
00:09:35.160
I mean, Justin Trudeau has moved on as Mel has also, you know, laid out.
00:09:39.040
I think the problem is that it reminded Canadians one of the reasons why they voted for Mark
00:09:43.420
Carney, which is they were afraid that this guy was a mini Donald Trump using the same
00:09:48.280
kind of tactics, the same kind of language, the same kind of rhetoric.
00:09:50.800
And now he wants, like Donald Trump, to put his political opponents in jail and he's calling
00:10:01.880
But in the long run, I don't think it's going to help reassure Canadians of why, you know,
00:10:06.900
they were concerned about him in the first place.
00:10:09.240
I don't think Canadians are seeing this and saying, wow, he's changed.
00:10:13.940
But if I may, I think worth pointing out to Carl's point that, that if that was a message
00:10:18.460
for the base on that, in that YouTube channel, in that interview, what really stood out to
00:10:23.300
me today was, was the clip that you played when he was asked again for a second time in
00:10:27.540
a broader context, he didn't back down, you know, he said, he doubled down instead.
00:10:33.780
Do you think that that play here is looking at the leadership race and saying, eh, I got
00:10:37.860
to make sure I have the votes that I, that I think I have?
00:10:41.500
There definitely is a segment of the party that is still, still does not understand how
00:10:50.920
And that despite all of these scandals, despite SNC-Lavalin, Aga Khan, Blackface in
00:10:57.960
2019, like in the middle of the election, how we still managed to lose, that that didn't
00:11:04.900
There's definitely a segment of, of the base that just doesn't understand and they're still
00:11:09.780
And so I do think that speaking to that segment of the base is, is perhaps the strategy here.
00:11:18.940
I think one of the reasons that Polly have lost is Canada doesn't have an established
00:11:22.960
right-wing broadcaster, sort of like the United States.
00:11:25.980
In the United States, you have Fox News and One America News.
00:11:29.160
In Canada, everything that's broadcasting on television is left-wing.
00:11:34.700
Now I know that a lot of people get their news from social media these days.
00:11:38.020
However, there's a lot of people, especially old people, that still rely on cable satellite
00:11:45.040
Now back to the liberal media, they have a habit of making a mountain out of a molehill
00:11:53.040
The real story is why did the RCMP not charge Justin Trudeau?
00:11:59.000
The real story is not, oh, Polly, I've said something about it during a podcast.
00:12:04.820
But this is an example of how the establishment, the left-wing media, spins things around.
00:12:09.860
Because a lot of Canadians, they're not watching my podcast.
00:12:14.620
They're watching CTV, CBC, global news, and that's what they're putting out there.
00:12:19.640
They're trying to make it sound like, oh, Polly has this bad guy.
00:12:23.640
He's this banana republic wannabe type where he just wants to put everyone in jail.
00:12:28.580
And it's like, that's not really what he was saying.
00:12:33.380
But that's what people think he was saying because they don't have the facts.
00:12:38.100
And they don't have the facts because the media, the mainstream media, is not being honest with people.
00:12:43.380
This is really about the RCMP not doing its job.
00:12:49.260
If you want people to trust you and take you seriously, do your jobs.
