Mark Slapinski

00:00:00.000 Peter Polyev? He's on a roll lately. Today he ruined not just one, not just two, but three journalist lives on live television.

00:00:09.440 You have to see this. Let's check it out.

00:00:11.480 Are you confident that by the end of the day today, all of your MPs will still be conservative MPs?

00:00:17.220 Yes.

00:00:18.160 That you went too far in saying the former Prime Minister should be in jail?

00:00:22.260 That's not what I said.

00:00:23.520 That's what I heard. What did you say then? Repeat what you said.

00:00:26.640 Sure. I'll tell you what I said. I was asked about the scandals of the last 10 years of the Liberal government.

00:00:31.900 And what would I do if such scandals and corruption were to happen when I become Prime Minister?

00:00:38.100 And I said I would have zero tolerance for corruption. Nobody is above the law.

00:00:42.480 So if I could, if I could, if I could, in certain cases, I think there were scandals in the Liberal government that would be appropriately punished in that way.

00:00:50.320 You think of the Green Slush Fund, where individuals were appointed to a board to manage public funds. 0.68

00:00:57.800 And what did they do with it? They gave it to themselves.

00:01:01.540 To me, that is a crime for which they should have been held responsible.

00:01:05.780 People have got to be held responsible for corruption.

00:01:08.860 And if you look at my remarks, that's what I said. We will hold people accountable for corruption.

00:01:13.980 This is what the media does, the mainstream media.

00:01:16.060 They twist things around. They twist the words of conservative politicians and try to make them look bad.

00:01:22.360 However, Polyev, he remained firm, he remained calm, and pushed back with cold, hard facts.

00:01:28.480 And the ultimate irony is that instead of investigating liberal corruption, the mainstream media is bothering Polyev for bringing it up.

00:01:35.400 How about that?

00:01:36.440 Before I get into the rest of this video, I want to let you know I've been shadowbanned.

00:01:40.020 So if you see this clip, like it, check to see if you're still subscribed, and let me know if you saw this part in the comment section.

00:01:47.440 I've been talking to at least a few fans that said they were unsubscribed automatically, against their will, and without their knowledge.

00:01:54.180 Thank you. Let's get back to the action.

00:01:56.540 Do you still think the RCMP covered it up?

00:01:59.820 My criticisms of Ms. Luckey have been long-standing, and that's why we called for her to resign.

00:02:06.300 We called for her to resign for a number of numerous scandals that she and the RCMP failed to investigate for the political interference, the appalling political interference in the Portapique shooting case, and countless others.

00:02:19.420 We've had long-standing criticisms of Ms. Luckey, the former commissioner, and we stand by those.

00:02:24.820 Another excellent answer by Polyev.

00:02:27.480 This guy truly is a master. 1.00

00:02:28.900 Imagine this, you're on cameras, the whole country is watching you, and these goons, they try to embarrass you when they ask you stupid questions. 0.99

00:02:37.640 That's a pretty hard situation to be in, and Polyev, he's a true master of dealing with that. 0.99

00:02:42.840 All right, now listen to how he deals with this next question.

00:02:45.260 Is that some conservatives were upset by what you said about the RCMP?

00:02:49.840 Well, listen, my view is that conservatives all agree on one thing.

00:02:53.240 People should be held accountable for corruption, and my future government will do that.

00:02:57.020 People will be held to the highest standard, and if there is ever corruption when I'm prime minister, the people involved will be fired, and their case is turned over to the police.

00:03:06.760 What a boss answer right there.

00:03:08.800 And he's right.

00:03:09.840 That's what any good leader would do.

00:03:11.900 Imagine this.

00:03:12.580 Imagine, you know, even if I was at work, and I did something illegal, I wouldn't expect my boss to cover for me.

00:03:18.420 I would expect my boss to turn me in, and rightfully so.

00:03:22.020 That's what a good leader does.

00:03:23.840 A good leader doesn't encourage corruption.

00:03:26.160 A good leader doesn't tolerate corruption.

00:03:28.440 A good leader takes action when action is needed, and that's what Polyev is willing to do.

00:03:33.160 And also, like I said in yesterday's video, we don't need conservatives that don't believe in accountability.

00:03:38.700 If there's conservative MPs, let's say they do exist, and they believe that Trudeau gets to get away with his crimes, fire them.

00:03:45.460 Polyev doesn't need those people on his team.

00:03:47.720 I stand by that statement 100%.

00:03:49.900 I don't care what anyone says.

00:03:51.720 Get rid of conservatives that aren't really conservative.

00:03:54.780 If you don't believe in law and order, if you don't believe in justice, you're not a real conservative, and you don't belong on Polyev's team.

00:04:01.680 All right, now watch.

00:04:03.120 Another fake news journalist tries to trip Polyev up.

00:04:06.280 Staken suggesting that Prime Minister Trudeau should have gone to jail?

00:04:09.500 That's not what I said, if you look at my remarks.

00:04:11.580 Get your facts straight.

00:04:13.360 That's your job.

00:04:14.080 You only have one job, and that's to get your facts straight.

00:04:16.280 And these journalists can't do that.

00:04:18.560 Polyev never said that. 1.00

00:04:20.200 These people are such goons. 0.95

00:04:22.020 Is there any world in which you would support the Liberal budget? 0.95

00:04:25.700 What we said is we want an affordable budget for an affordable Canada.

00:04:29.560 Right now, Mark Carney is driving up the cost of living with the cost of his spending.

00:04:33.540 So I'm going to sit down with him today, and if he takes my suggestions of bringing down the deficit to the level the Liberal government promised, of getting rid of the hidden taxes on food, well, then let's have a look at it.

00:04:46.820 But that's why I'm meeting in a spirit of collaboration with the Prime Minister, and I hope that he will reverse course and do the right thing so Canadians can afford their lives.

00:04:54.460 Great answer, and I love how Polyev just walks away after that. 0.99

00:04:58.240 He's had enough of these idiot shenanigans. 0.99

00:05:00.820 I also like how Polyev is taking a cooperative approach. 0.99

00:05:04.120 He's willing to actually work with Carney for the betterment of the country, and I like that.

00:05:08.460 Now let's cycle back to the beginning of the press conference.

00:05:11.380 Polyev made some really good points, so I want to show you that.

00:05:13.720 Thank you very much, everyone.

00:05:15.500 Today I will be meeting with Prime Minister Carney.

00:05:18.520 We will be talking about the budget.

00:05:21.160 This will be the 10th Liberal budget, and Canadians cannot afford to eat, heat, or house themselves.

00:05:27.700 Conservatives believe Canadians deserve an affordable budget that will lead to an affordable life.

00:05:34.280 And that means getting government spending under control and eliminating inflationary taxes that drive up the cost of living.

00:05:41.540 So, here's the core reality.

00:05:45.220 We can't escape.

00:05:46.040 Every dollar the government spends comes out of your pocket.

00:05:49.780 The more they spend, the more things cost.

00:05:52.520 Just yesterday that we saw that since Mr. Carney has doubled the deficits left behind by his predecessor, inflation is on the march.

00:06:02.320 With all four measures now above the target, and food price inflation is now twice as high as the Bank of Canada's target.

00:06:09.940 We've got 2 million people lined up at food banks.

00:06:12.780 And I know that people watching out there, when they walk down grocery aisles, they face nothing but anxiety and fear as they see prices that they cannot afford.

00:06:21.740 And so we will be calling on Mr. Carney to introduce an affordable budget for an affordable life for Canadians.

00:06:26.920 That includes bringing down the deficit to the level liberals promised it would be at in their last fiscal update.

00:06:33.680 It means getting rid of hidden food taxes, like the industrial carbon tax on farmers and fish harvesters, getting rid of the food packaging tax, which drives up food prices a billion dollars, getting rid of the fuel standard tax, which adds 17 cents a liter to diesel and to gasoline for our farmers, and getting rid of the inflation tax.

00:06:59.240 No more money printing to pay the bills. We want this to be an affordable country where people's paychecks go further.

00:07:04.920 And that's the message I'll be bringing to Prime Minister Carney.

00:07:07.320 Brilliant speech. I'm glad that we have Polyev on our side. Polyev would make a great leader of this country.

00:07:13.960 For the next part, let's watch some fake news journalists try to ambush some Conservative MPs.

00:07:19.200 I think what we are going to hear from Pierre Polyev is what he's been telling all Canadians, which is that he's ready to lead, that Canada desperately needs a change from the Liberals, and that we have a lot of unity behind him as a caucus.

00:07:35.360 What would you say to colleagues who clearly don't feel that way, who are concerned about the comments that he made on the podcast?

00:07:42.940 I think that Pierre Polyev has tremendous support from caucus, tremendous support from Canadians.

00:07:48.760 We're really excited to see what's going to be coming.

00:07:51.400 But at the end of the day, this is like, you know, a little out of context things from a podcast is really not the biggest priority for him.

00:07:58.520 I think what's going to be happening is we're going to be seeing a lot more from Pierre about the vision for Canada.

00:08:04.560 And I think that's something that he is going to be our next Prime Minister.

00:08:07.180 Great answer by Andrew Lawton.

00:08:09.000 And if you're unfamiliar, Andrew Lawton was a podcaster for right-wing publication True North, and he's putting his podcasting skills to good use as a politician.

00:08:17.680 I love to see it.

00:08:18.780 And I agree.

00:08:19.740 I also believe that Polyev will be Prime Minister.

00:08:22.620 Now let's watch the rest of the question.

00:08:24.320 Out of context, what are you talking about?

00:08:25.840 What's out of context?

00:08:26.440 Thoughts on what your leader said about the RCMP last week?

00:08:31.020 You know, why don't you guys ask me about the thousands of jobs that have been lost in my province due to softwood?

00:08:37.180 This government's failure to get a softwood lumber agreement.

00:08:39.800 Can we ask about that?

00:08:40.180 Or ask me about the opioid crisis, how that is like the leading cause of death for youth aged 10 to 18 in my province.

00:08:48.180 Why don't you ask me about that?

00:08:49.720 Of course I support.

00:08:50.620 Of course I support.

00:08:51.900 Of course I support.

00:08:53.460 Of course I support.

00:08:54.380 Of course I support.

00:08:54.440 Of course I support.

00:08:54.500 Leader and he's going to be an incredible Prime Minister.

00:08:56.260 What do you do for this whole episode?

00:08:58.200 What are you hoping to hear from your leader this morning?

00:09:02.000 Well, we have a big agenda and of course we're going to pursue that agenda.

00:09:05.260 What do you make of this whole episode with the RCMP and his comments?

00:09:08.000 What do you make of those comments?

00:09:09.740 What do I make of which comments?

00:09:11.020 The ones you made about the question of RCMP?

00:09:13.060 Well, number one, I've got a lot of friends in the RCMP.

00:09:15.140 And a lot of us, of course, respect the work the RCMP does, particularly in these trying times where you take a look at what they have to deal with on a daily basis.

00:09:22.600 Of having prisoners, or pardon me, criminals come out and return again and again and again, you know, to the streets.

00:09:29.540 But what do you make of that?

00:09:30.140 So they've got a whole bunch.

00:09:31.620 But what do you think?

00:09:32.560 Do you think the leadership is...

00:09:33.440 Well, two things, right?

00:09:34.240 Two things on that.

00:09:35.100 So recognize that tone is important.

00:09:39.120 Tone is very important.

00:09:40.140 But tone is actually something that gets something done in many respects.

00:09:42.540 So the fact that you've got a leadership here, political leadership, that's allowed this to continue.

00:09:50.020 So take a look at what Canadians are thinking right now as far as the SNC-Lavalin scandal.

00:09:53.520 What do you make of the tone of your leader?

00:09:54.900 Well, let's go through that exactly.

00:09:56.800 Think about exactly what we're dealing with here.

00:09:59.120 What we're dealing with here is the SNC-Lavalin scandal.

00:10:01.380 So if we've actually opened that up and actually have the new prime minister hold the old administration to account over what happened to the SNC-Lavalin,

00:10:08.860 because the Canadians understand exactly what shouldn't happen in a democratically-run country.

00:10:14.540 Think about it where you're on.

00:10:15.700 So where your leader's comments...

00:10:16.860 Do you think Trudeau...

00:10:17.860 Probably have us time about Trudeau going to jail or eluding...

00:10:20.080 You know, the thing is, you need to take a look at everybody involved in the process, and the RCB needs to do their job,

00:10:25.300 because frankly, right now, we haven't seen the full analysis of what actually has happened here.

00:10:29.540 And if you actually go to committee and look at why the former prime minister wasn't...

00:10:33.880 Or you take a look at all of the issues around that, about how we actually address this, we need to go forward.

00:10:38.520 Do you think your leader went too far in his comments?

00:10:42.160 There's all kinds of comments, but...

00:10:43.660 No, but on the RCMP comments...

00:10:45.200 Sure, but let's look at the whole thing.

00:10:47.080 Let's go back to the issue around...

00:10:48.520 Do you fully agree with what you're saying?

00:10:49.740 Let me ask the question.

00:10:51.400 What's the role of the opposition here?

00:10:52.900 The opposition is to make sure the government is held to account.

00:10:55.120 So the government needs to be held to account here.

00:10:57.020 And if some of that is okay, somebody in the party has to come up and say,

00:11:01.440 yes, we need to look at this.

00:11:02.960 This is about Canadian democracy at the end of the day and the Canadian rule of law.

00:11:05.840 So if we're getting this all done at the end of the day, whoever says it,

00:11:09.240 but if the RCMP actually goes forward and actually takes a look at the evidence,

00:11:13.140 we're asking the evidence to kind of be very clear and make sure we actually understand it.

00:11:17.000 You're fine with what he said.

00:11:18.240 Nobody's actually...

00:11:19.640 So think about all the people in the RCMP that we support.

00:11:21.920 And the RCMP, frankly, we love the work they do.

00:11:25.820 They're a great Canadian institution, and we have lots of friends and supporters.

00:11:30.840 Well, when the leader says their leadership was despicable past commissioner,

00:11:34.240 how does that...

00:11:34.760 Thank you very much.

00:11:35.360 Well, we've...

00:11:36.520 I think I've asked.

00:11:37.300 But I would say we're...

00:11:38.220 With respect to you, haven't, do you agree with this?

00:11:41.300 Do you, in your assessment, think that what the leader said was accurate and appropriate,

00:11:45.340 saying the RCMP leadership was despicable over its handling of these scandals?

00:11:49.420 So I think he's clarified exactly what he said about the leadership.

00:11:52.080 He said former commissioner, Brenda Luckey, has not looked at the evidence sufficiently enough.

00:11:57.140 And what we're talking about here is the rule of law in Canada.

00:11:59.480 So we need to get back to the rule of law.

00:12:01.100 And if the RCMP are the ones that have to be held in that respect,

00:12:03.840 that oversight where, look at this again,

00:12:07.360 this evidence is quite clear that there should be an investigation into this,

00:12:11.340 and the people should be...

00:12:12.700 Did he cross a line...

00:12:13.660 The people should be...

00:12:14.420 Did he cross a line suggesting that somebody...

00:12:16.420 Think about the RCMP.

00:12:17.500 Well, I very much support the leader.

00:12:23.800 I think he's doing a great job.

00:12:25.840 He's a strong leader defending men and women in uniform.

00:12:30.420 And I, frankly, will take no lessons from the Liberals

00:12:32.780 on standing up for front-line officers.

00:12:35.720 Our party is defending the work police officers do,

00:12:39.720 that when people are arrested, when they're committing crimes,

00:12:43.220 repeat violent offenders, they should be in jail, not out on bail.

00:12:47.500 We've given the government a chance to adopt our jail-not-bail legislation.

00:12:53.080 So we're standing up for front-line officers.

00:12:54.720 But the RCMP is despicable.

00:12:56.380 We're not taking any lessons from the Liberals.

00:12:59.860 Our party is the one defending our front-line officers.

00:13:05.100 And I support our leader.

00:13:06.800 Do you support the clarification?

00:13:08.380 Did you go to jail?

00:13:09.320 I think he's addressed the comments.

00:13:11.140 But, again, we'll take no lessons from the Liberals on defending front-line officers.

00:13:14.480 Did he go too far, your leader?

00:13:16.580 Give us some time.

00:13:17.600 What do you make in this whole episode,

00:13:18.900 the leader having to clarify his comments in the RCMP?

00:13:20.880 Was that clarification needed in your mind?

00:13:22.980 I mean, his comments speak for themselves.

00:13:25.680 He offered a precision that I think was very important.

00:13:28.360 I think that it's also important, the precision that he supports, that we support,

00:13:38.040 and I will affirm that I support the men and women of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

00:13:42.940 I'm proud that my family has a multi-generational history of service in the RCMP,

00:13:48.860 and they do important work to keep Canadians safe.

00:13:51.380 There is and has been criticism, rightly so, 1.00

00:13:57.140 over how things have evolved over the last few years.

00:14:01.100 We know the RCMP said themselves that when it came to investigating things like the SNC-Lavalin scandal,

00:14:09.860 things like investigating the illegal vacation to Billionaire Island,

00:14:14.580 that they were unable to fulfill and discharge their duties

00:14:17.520 because the Prime Minister, the Liberal Prime Minister,

00:14:20.940 used cabinet confidences to protect himself from investigation.

00:14:25.060 That's not the intent of cabinet confidence.

00:14:28.900 They're designed so that governments can have discussions and take decisions,

00:14:35.580 and they're able to do that important work of government.

00:14:38.500 Did Koyev go too far when he said that Justin Trudeau should go to jail?

00:14:42.400 Did he go too far?

00:14:44.580 I didn't hear him say that.

00:14:47.080 Can I go to work? Am I allowed to go to work?

00:14:49.600 Indeed.

00:14:50.300 Can I go to work?

00:14:50.820 I'm sorry.

00:14:51.480 Okay.

00:14:53.960 What's your opinion on the boards of the RCMP?

00:14:56.400 Was your leader right to clarify his comments?

00:14:58.160 Est-ce qu'il est allé trop loin?

00:14:59.260 Est-ce qu'il est allé trop loin?

00:15:00.120 You know, there's 3,000 jobs lost at Stellantis.

00:15:05.380 There is another 1,200 at Ingersoll.

00:15:09.580 We've got softwood lumber jobs being eliminated. 0.78

00:15:13.680 My leader's put out a statement.

00:15:15.500 I don't have anything else to add.

00:15:16.900 But there's a five-alarm fire going on in this country with jobs,

00:15:20.120 with inflation doubling.

00:15:21.960 It's inflation way over target.

00:15:25.480 So that's what we're going into talking about today.

00:15:27.280 And I love how they ended on Andrew Scheer.

00:15:29.500 And he's got a great point.

00:15:30.840 Our country literally is burning down.

00:15:32.760 And these fake news journalists are focused on an out-of-context quote

00:15:36.380 from a podcast made over a week ago.

00:15:39.280 Like, what's going on here? 0.98

00:15:40.640 These people are such goons. 0.89

00:15:42.520 So for the next part, I'm going to show you a recent clip from Paulie Evans, 0.97

00:15:44.960 the House of Commons.

00:15:46.180 Then I need to give some further commentary.

00:15:48.100 So stick around.

00:15:49.100 He admits they have to do better.

00:15:50.380 It's not possible for them to do any worse, Mr. Speaker.

00:15:53.600 The reality is today we learned that inflation is again on the march.

00:15:59.700 All four measures of inflation are above Bank of Canada's targets.

00:16:03.200 Two are outside of and above the acceptable range.

00:16:06.860 Food price inflation is rising two times the rate that Bank of Canada targets.

00:16:12.820 No wonder we have two million people lined up at food banks every single day.

00:16:17.220 This inflation has exploded since this Prime Minister doubled the deficit.

00:16:20.980 Will he reverse his inflationary deficit and taxes in this coming budget?

00:16:25.040 Mr. Speaker, I think we all know in this side of the House and Canadians,

00:16:28.620 Matt might not be the cup of tea of the leader of the opposition.

00:16:32.440 Neither may be economics, Mr. Speaker.

00:16:34.440 But let me quote one of the authorities in the world, which is the Director General of the International Motory Fund, Mr. Speaker.

00:16:41.600 She said just last week, then we have countries in the G7 that are in a better position.

00:16:47.420 Germany and Canada stand up in that regard, Mr. Speaker.

00:16:50.560 Both Germany and Canada recognize that this is a very testing time and they need to use their fiscal space.

00:16:57.460 In the case of Canada, the Canadian authorities have been very decisive in taking action.

00:17:02.120 His banker friends in Washington may think that they have fiscal space,

00:17:06.580 but the single mothers who can't afford groceries have no space left at all to pay for liberal inflation. 1.00

00:17:12.180 This government is forcing them to spend 70% more on the Canadian Revenue Agency.

00:17:19.400 Today, the Auditor General revealed that only 15% of calls get responses on time.

00:17:27.560 And even if someone does pick up the phone, there's an 83% chance they give you the wrong answer.

00:17:32.600 Why does this government force Canadians to pay so much for such terrible service?

00:17:36.320 Polyev is 100% right.

00:17:37.700 Canada is one of the highest tax countries in the world, if not the highest tax country.

00:17:43.520 And our tax money just gets wasted.

00:17:46.160 It gets siphoned off by these criminals, by these billionaires, and we don't even get good service at the CRA.

00:17:52.220 Think about that.

00:17:53.240 They want our money, but they can't even answer the phone.

00:17:56.400 And when they do answer the phone, a lot of the times they give us the wrong information.

00:18:00.780 I think we could get better service from a call center in India.

00:18:03.680 And that's a real shame.

00:18:04.800 But overall, if you're not convinced Polyev should be Prime Minister, you haven't been paying attention.

00:18:10.120 Like I've said numerous times, I truly believe it's only a matter of time before we get Polyev into office.

00:18:15.420 He's simply just too smart, and I think most Canadians are starting to realize that.

00:18:20.560 Thanks for tuning in.

00:18:21.820 Have a great day.

00:18:22.960 Talk to you tomorrow, Patriots.
