I don't know what it is about the Liberal Party of Canada. I guess they like being shredded on the
00:00:04.360
internet, but they keep posting the absolute dumbest things to social media, assuming they're
00:00:08.960
going to get some propaganda value out of it when they've really just created the perfect hoop for
00:00:13.040
conservatives to dunk on. Right now, the Liberal Party of Canada is trying to claim that Conservative
00:00:18.700
Party leader Pierre Polyev is a threat to the free press and is far-right. This is what they
00:00:24.420
seriously posted on X from their official account. It reads, just like far-right American politicians,
00:00:30.900
when Pierre Polyev doesn't like a question or things don't go his way, he attacks journalists
00:00:34.820
and our free press. That's not leadership. So because Pierre Polyev doesn't like government
00:00:40.960
subsidized journalists trying to ask him smear questions, accusing him of being far-right,
00:00:46.240
that makes him far-right for taking issue with the questions and going after the journalists who ask
00:00:51.760
them. Remember, Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party just did this last week.
00:00:57.240
Mr. Freeland, how come the IRDC is not a terrorist group? Why is your government supporting Islamo
00:01:04.620
nationality? What? You've been mixed in? What are you doing? You're under arrest for assault?
00:01:10.500
Why are you pushing me? You're under arrest for assault. You're under arrest for assault.
00:01:15.680
The liberal government took Rebel News co-founder, Ezra Levant, to court because he wrote a book,
00:01:26.260
The Liberanos, critical of the Liberal Party and released it during the 2019 election and had the
00:01:31.520
temerity to advertise his own book during the election. That is insane. There was dozens of
00:01:37.740
other books that were pro-liberal released during that election. None of those people were taken to
00:01:42.800
court and Ezra Levant lost that because our court system is completely screwed. But the liberals also
00:01:49.100
have forced True North and Rebel News to have to sue every single election cycle that they've run in
00:01:55.520
in order to get into the official debates because the liberals block them from being able to actually
00:02:01.040
ask the leaders questions after the official debates. This is not a pro-free press government and
00:02:06.560
it's so obvious to everyone. It's the reason why in this post right here about Polyev, there is 3,200,
00:02:14.160
over 3,200 comments and there was only 908 likes. That is a textbook ratio. I have a comment underneath
00:02:22.500
that post and it has like 540 likes. I'm almost getting to, I'm over half of what the liberals have
00:02:29.060
in terms of their likes and I'm just some random reply in the comments. Everyone knows that the liberals
00:02:34.720
are full of it. Bill C-18, Bill C-11 are not meant to, you know, strengthen the free press like the
00:02:41.080
liberals say. I can't use my Facebook account for the National Telegraph. It had 75,000 people following
00:02:47.200
it. That's why I do this YouTube show because I can't write and distribute articles anymore. Bill C-11
00:02:52.620
is going to start determining who's Canadian enough to actually have their own content discoverable
00:02:58.240
on platforms like YouTube and other sort of social media platforms. Insanity. These people
00:03:04.280
hate the free press in reality. That's why they subsidize the press because any press, the only
00:03:09.820
press that they want to be around is stuff like the CBC. Stuff that pretends to be right down the
00:03:15.440
middle and centrist or at least non-partisan and then just sort of subtly moves you in that liberal
00:03:20.660
direction. The liberals hate the free press. That is why there's, they've had way more run-ins with
00:03:25.880
Rebel News than just that one with David Menzies. They've had a lot of their bodyguards manhandle
00:03:30.180
Rebel News journalists for trying to ask questions. You will get a lot of lawsuit threats from liberal,
00:03:35.320
from the Liberal Party if you try and report on anything. Andrew Scheer, the Conservative Party in
00:03:40.980
2019, Andrew Scheer, got sued by the Liberal Party for accurately spreading information about the SNC-Lavalin
00:03:48.780
scandal. The liberals do not like the truth. They do not like the free press. They consider the free
00:03:54.580
press anything that is free of actual independent thought. If you are taking enough government money
00:04:00.280
that you are scared of actually accurately portraying the truth, then the liberals consider
00:04:07.020
you the free press. Justin Trudeau is full of crap. He doesn't care about the free press in Canada
00:04:13.120
or around the world. The man is a propagandist at heart. And think about from Christian Freeland's
00:04:19.440
perspective, how disgusting it is that she has still not apologized to David Menzies for that
00:04:24.400
police officer, obviously under orders by her office to arrest anyone who tries to actually ask
00:04:30.280
her a question. Because why else would a police officer randomly, artificially generate that
00:04:35.020
confrontation to get a false assault arrest going against David Menzies? Think about it from
00:04:40.680
Freeland's perspective. She used to be a journalist herself. In Eastern Europe, where free press
00:04:46.180
is not always respected, you think that she in Canada would have a strong need to be able to
00:04:55.180
protect the press, make sure that they can operate just like she was generally allowed to operate when
00:05:00.220
she was a journalist. Nah, nah. As soon as she's actually in office, she could care less. She will
00:05:06.520
never answer an independent media person's question. And she will definitely not want them to come to one
00:05:11.960
of her official press events. But pure Polyev, because he doesn't like being accused of being
00:05:16.460
far right, is dangerous anti-free press and indeed far right. So you're, you know, you're damned if you
00:05:22.700
do, damned if you don't. If you are, if you say that you're not far right to a journalist accusing you of
00:05:27.760
being far right and you go after them for lying, that indeed makes you far right. So this, again,
00:05:32.500
remember, this is something that they use to portray pure Polyev as anti-free press.
00:05:38.140
On the, on the topic, I mean, in terms of your sort of strategy, currently, you're obviously taking
00:05:44.880
the populist pathway. What does that mean? Well, appealing, appealing to people's more emotional
00:05:53.720
levels, I would guess. I mean, certainly, certainly you, certainly you tap, certainly you tap very
00:05:59.380
strong ideological language quite frequently. Like what? Uh, left wing, you know, this and that,
00:06:06.800
right wing, you know, I mean, it's that, that type of ideological thing. I never really talk about
00:06:10.980
left or right. Anyways, a lot of people. I don't really believe in that. Okay. A lot of people would,
00:06:14.940
would say that you're simply taking a page out of the Donald Trump, uh, book. Like which people
00:06:20.280
would say that? Well, I'm sure a great many. That makes pure Polyev far right because he pushes back
00:06:27.440
against journalists. And it really demonstrates just how bad the media landscape has been in
00:06:32.980
Canada for the past decade. It's just assumed that conservatives will just accept the smear
00:06:37.920
questions given to them like Aaron O'Toole and Andrew Scheer did. So if you actually end up, you
00:06:43.580
know, standing up for yourself the way pure Polyev does, that's over the line. That's not how things
00:06:48.360
should work. That's far right. The liberals are complete clowns. And I think people are seeing
00:06:53.120
through it. That's why I think this posted far more damage to the liberals than they actually
00:06:57.700
got any sort of propaganda value out of it. And the article that this was all based on is from
00:07:02.040
the National Observer, which is just a clown outlet to even be like citing. It's as bad as press
00:07:08.060
progress is. It's just, you know, I'm not sure who wrote that article. I'd love to go over now and
00:07:13.380
read it. But the idea that somehow pushing back against a journalist and taking issue with their
00:07:18.740
questions is at all unacceptable. If the liberals take issue with the Rebel News, True North question,
00:07:23.540
National Post question, that's perfectly legitimate. Even if the journalist is accurate,
00:07:27.740
you can take issue with anything you want. It's a free country, but not exactly, you know,
00:07:32.280
free for the free press in the liberals mind, only free for subsidized media. Oh, anyways,
00:07:38.440
sorry for the rant. Anyways, I have my usual give, send, go link in the description of this video.
00:07:42.940
If you want to support our, the National Telegraph's, you know, right to report the news,
00:07:47.340
you can give money to that legal fund. We're being sued by a billionaire who doesn't like
00:07:51.680
us doing accurate reporting on him and his donation history. So if you want to help support us and sort
00:07:57.900
of loosen in the burden of our $25,000 legal bills, donating there really helps us out. And then I
00:08:03.560
myself, I'm running for the Calgary Signal Hill Conservative Party nomination. So if you live in the
00:08:08.400
riding of Calgary Signal Hill, it's this one right here. Make sure to buy a Conservative Party membership or
00:08:13.660
get any of your friends who are living the riding to buy a membership because we want real Conservatives
00:08:18.880
and independent media people to be in the next Conservative government to roll back all this
00:08:23.120
anti-free speech garbage that the liberals have shoveled on to us. Anyways, that should be it for
00:08:29.400
me today. And there will be a live stream later today with me and Daniel Boardman. So if you got to
00:08:34.200
this point of the video, make sure to check back in around 8 p.m. Eastern, 6 p.m. Mountain,
00:08:39.540
and we might have started a live stream by then. So other than that, I hope everyone has a great day.
