The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - BC Election is Corrupt NDP vs Corrupt Liberals - New Information Comes Out!

00:00:00.560 During this provincial election in British Columbia, I have a lot of people telling me,

00:00:05.740 Wyatt, why can't you just back the BC Conservatives to beat the NDP? 0.89

00:00:10.340 Come on, they're Conservatives, it's going to be a worthwhile change from the EB-NDP.

00:00:16.180 The problem is when the Conservatives are not Conservatives. 0.83

00:00:20.040 Remember Aaron O'Toole is the Federal Conservative Party leader in 2021?

00:00:24.700 Yes, I don't like Justin Trudeau. I dislike him like rat poison. 0.98

00:00:28.860 At the same time, if Erin O'Toole is going to turn the Conservative Party into a watered-down Liberal Party, I would have seen that as a bigger tragedy, because even if he got into government, what's really going to change? 0.85

00:00:41.040 And the cost of getting in was completely corrupting what should be the right-side Conservative option.

00:00:47.840 That's what's currently happening in British Columbia.

00:00:50.700 And so I need to take you guys through a few examples of candidates the BC Conservatives are running so you will get my point.

00:00:58.000 And with me today to go through this menagerie of weirdo candidates the Conservatives are running is my friend and fellow 1BC organizer, Anthony Russo. How are you doing, Anthony?

00:01:09.920 I'm doing great, Wyatt. Good to join you again.

00:01:12.180 Absolutely. So, again, you joined 1BC after working with the Conservative Party for quite a while. I used to work for them, too. I am not a Puritan. I don't need perfection in my conservatism or I don't support something.

00:01:26.580 You probably are like me where I just need basic standards upheld, ideological standards, basic governance and ethical standards, or I have to withhold my vote for decency's sake. At some point, you actually do need to enforce this stuff.

00:01:44.100 A hundred percent. You know, a lot of people have been saying that 1BC has started because of

00:01:47.880 grievance politics, because of everything that happened over the last two months and more over

00:01:51.560 the last two years, that it's sort of the screw you, we're going to take you out, we're going to

00:01:55.300 cause a vote split. And so really what I've been addressing with people when they bring that up,

00:01:59.660 this has nothing to do with grievance politics. It has to do with accountability politics.

00:02:04.460 We want to see a higher standard for our elected officials. We're sick and tired of the corruption.

00:02:08.440 We're sick and tired of the capitulation. And at this point, we're really done playing the game

00:02:12.300 and we want real change well and at some point if someone can just keep saying we have to vote blue

00:02:17.060 to stop the orange well you can never withhold your vote because if that's the standard then

00:02:22.740 you will always be voting for a watered down liberal option of the conservatives because

00:02:27.320 there's no way you can do unless they literally become the orange team you have to vote for them

00:02:32.720 to stop the orange team and that's how Ontario gets into the position it's in but let's jump

00:02:37.940 right here uh you might be confused why this is on screen why are you looking at some random meme

00:02:45.060 and a guy wearing a furry suit that is because this was a bc conservative candidate up until

00:02:52.580 a couple days ago although he is still on the ballot this is jordan mcintosh who was running

00:02:56.980 for the bc conservatives in vancouver strathcona who on top of for some reason being a furry

00:03:03.380 was also a hitler apologist which doesn't sound like the watered down liberal version of the bc

00:03:10.580 conservatives that just sounds like extremist nonsense but this is how bad the filtration has

00:03:15.620 been in the bc conservative party he ended up getting bounced for comments he was making about

00:03:21.300 the holocaust online but that again you probably would say that doesn't really prove your point

00:03:26.660 that this is a watered down liberal party i now need to bring you guys to this excellent clip of

00:03:33.860 a star candidate for the bc conservatives this is somebody who's act treated like a bc conservative

00:03:39.460 celebrity running for them this is margaret dogval running in vancouver yaletown uh check out this

00:03:46.740 video that she posted on her own tick tock last october i had a follow-up to what i said earlier

00:03:54.660 Resolving rights and title cases here in British Columbia where we have a lot of unceded land

00:03:58.980 is not something that should be done in court. But it has been because governments have neglected

00:04:03.620 the obligations that they have. She is specifically speaking about the Cowichan case that put

00:04:09.300 Aboriginal Cowichan title over over 150 private homes in the Richmond area including also public

00:04:17.780 land and federal and provincial property. This is something that she is justifying right now

00:04:23.380 and she is a conservative candidate and look if you're a conservative-minded person that cares

00:04:27.780 about private property you care about getting things built you need to look to your decision

00:04:31.940 makers to make better decisions and to actually show leadership that means legislation that means

00:04:37.940 mechanisms that try to bring nations in rather than pretending that their rights don't exist

00:04:43.780 and look unless you believe it's possible to repeal section 35 of the constitution

00:04:48.740 there's a crazy amending formula really you don't want to hear about it it takes a lot of work

00:04:52.760 We aren't going to see a refuel of those rights.

00:04:55.300 Courts are going to keep lining in favor of nations.

00:04:57.740 So the time is now to support political leaders that are actually going to do the work that's required to reconcile.

00:05:04.820 Otherwise, as taxpayers, we're all going to pay the price.

00:05:07.900 Except the work that needs to be done that she is sort of like snarkily kind of referring to is called money.

00:05:15.660 It is called land transfers, power and money.

00:05:18.120 There is no such thing as some engagement, some legislation you can pass in order to get this thing to go away.

00:05:24.760 100%. I mean, we've enshrined DRIPA basically into our law here in BC through, pardon me, we've enshrined UNDRIP through DRIPA.

00:05:31.800 And now we need to repeal DRIPA. And then, yes, we do need to start the process of making an amendment to Section 35 of the Constitution.

00:05:38.980 And I think she kind of said there, she kind of disqualified it as though this is never going to happen.

00:05:43.080 It's never going to be possible. We have people who are right now in the Cowichan area, the Richmond area.

00:05:48.120 who are unable to renew their mortgages. And I mean, our entire title security across the

00:05:52.440 province is in contention. And so, yeah, this is extreme. It's very serious. And we absolutely

00:05:57.660 need to begin this process. And this has been a bit of a theme, even when somebody isn't crazy

00:06:02.900 on this issue inside the BC conservatives, like Caroline Elliott. I don't think she's

00:06:07.360 wrong exactly whenever I hear her talk about land issues, but I've noticed how muted she's been

00:06:13.240 getting as this election goes on. As the BC Liberals took back over the party, kicked out

00:06:18.400 Carrie Lynn Finley, the actual discussion around DRIPA, private property rights, UNDRIP, treaties,

00:06:27.700 lands, it's been getting very generic. In this video Caroline Elliott posted, I was actually

00:06:33.340 kind of blown away that she even made anything on it. Right here she says, David Eby has a habit

00:06:38.540 of hiding his secret DRIPA deals from the public. Last election, he signed a deal and didn't tell

00:06:43.640 anyone until after the votes were cast. This election, he tried the same thing, but he got

00:06:47.420 caught. This pattern of secrecy makes you wonder, what else is he hiding? And the story she's

00:06:51.940 referring to is the Premier, David Eby, ended up, his government had 400 secret land deals in the

00:06:58.800 works with First Nation bands. The problem here is if you actually watch Caroline Elliott's video,

00:07:04.880 I could play you the whole thing, but I don't think we want to sit down and just watch videos

00:07:08.380 from B.C. Conservative candidates here, the thing that she has a problem with is the secrecy. 1.00

00:07:13.540 And this is the thing with Lauren Dirks and the B.C. Conservative leader on TRIPA. They always talk

00:07:17.740 about secrecy and how it's divisive. But it's never that it's actually actively bad. I don't

00:07:25.580 care that these land deals are secret. I want them to stop. But the B.C. Conservatives also vote for

00:07:31.700 land deals. They also endorse the treaty process that gives away massive amounts of land, money,

00:07:37.220 and power, oftentimes in exchange for basically nothing. And they vote for it. Birthday parties

00:07:44.020 are conducted in secret. They're planned in secret. I don't care about that being a secret.

00:07:48.720 I care that the thing itself is either good or bad. Birthday party's good. Random land transfer

00:07:53.660 is bad. Lauren Dirksen saying DRIPA is divisive makes me think that he's just going to pass a

00:07:59.340 reconciliation act like Peter Milibar was running on during the last leadership campaign for the

00:08:05.420 BC Conservatives, last fake leadership campaign they had, he endorsed Peter Melibar, who also

00:08:11.020 used this language that TRIP has become divisive, so we need to replace it with our Reconciliation

00:08:15.720 Act. So what would substantially change between the NDP, who is pro-treaties and transferring

00:08:23.840 land and having to do all this reconciliation work and doing direct partnerships with First

00:08:29.060 Nation bands, which just means giving them arbitrary amounts of money and ownership over

00:08:32.880 projects, and then going to the conservatives who want to get rid of DRIPA, replace it with

00:08:36.940 a reconciliation act, and then engage in direct partnerships and land transfers and all stuff

00:08:41.340 like that. It's stupid. Yeah, 100%. I mean, this is the whole problem. Milibar has been 1.00

00:08:47.120 pushing for quite some time for that reconciliation act. It makes you wonder who's really making the

00:08:51.140 decisions with the conservative party. Is it Lauren Dirksen or is it Christy Clark and Peter

00:08:55.120 Milibar behind the scenes? And you know what? The leadership contestants, they were all fairly clear

00:08:58.940 on it. But here's the problem, Wyatt. It's not just DRIPA. They're basically saying, hey, we're

00:09:02.920 going to repeal DRIPA and replace it with a new reconciliation act. We're going to repeal SOGI

00:09:08.040 and replace it with something new. We don't need to replace these policies with something new.

00:09:11.800 They need to be gutted and we need to get rid of them. They're causing dysfunction across the

00:09:14.640 province. Now we need to get into a very controversial thing that popped up with a

00:09:22.840 B.C. conservative candidate, and a lot of things are not adding up. So we need to talk about Mr.

00:09:30.620 Pavneet Singh, who is the B.C. conservative party candidate for the Kelowna Lake Country

00:09:35.940 Coldstream Riding. He's running against a fantastic one B.C. candidate, Alexandra Wright, so if you do

00:09:41.800 live in that riding, definitely vote for Alexandra Wright, get a lawn sign, do all that stuff. But

00:09:46.420 We dropped on October 15th this post on our 1BC page that says,

00:09:52.860 Can Pavneet Singh, VP for the BC Conservatives and their candidate in Colonial Lake Country Goldstream,

00:09:57.960 explain what his 2007 criminal charge in Vernon is for and if he disclosed it to the party when he decided to run?

00:10:05.580 Now, the response that we got was quite interesting because we had had a lot of people from conservative world come out and say,

00:10:14.220 it's traffic violations. This is nothing or a misidentification. This is another Pavneet Singh.

00:10:20.860 It has nothing to do with him. He has no charges. And then that's not quite how it ended up a little

00:10:27.520 bit later, but you can go on to explain, Anthony. Yeah, it seems like over and over again, when you

00:10:32.540 put out a piece of information that has any sort of controversy about really any of the candidates

00:10:37.280 that the conservatives have selected, that immediately all the supporters come out and say,

00:10:41.660 no, no, it's not criminal. It wasn't a criminal charge. It was just a traffic fine. It was just

00:10:45.320 a missed court appearance. And it's like, actually, you know what, maybe we need to start looking at

00:10:49.620 this a little bit more critically. Maybe we need to have some people actually investigate this,

00:10:53.700 but no, it's untouchable. You're not allowed to bring it up because this is the vice president

00:10:57.640 of the conservative party. I've been wondering what kind of vetting process the leadership did.

00:11:02.860 And I know that you're going to be showing a little bit more information about this here,

00:11:05.440 Wyatt, and that's going to make that very clear. Yeah. I wanted to quickly show the

00:11:10.620 we I just quickly want to show the response that we ended up getting from his campaign manager

00:11:17.740 because I thought it was quite interesting the way that they had responded to us because

00:11:21.800 it demonstrates what they actually knew at the time and now how they're kind of pivoting so in

00:11:27.840 this because it's this is a bit of a spoiler for what we're going to be showing a bit later

00:11:31.660 this infotel article info news.ca says Okanagan conservative candidates speaks up after

00:11:37.920 political rival unearthed unproven historical sexual assault charges. Now, the funny thing is

00:11:43.900 we didn't technically unearth it. It was actually Infotel who, on our tip, ended up looking into

00:11:49.960 what was going on here. I want to quickly jump over to these lines in the article, though. It

00:11:56.020 says, when asked, Singh's campaign manager, Rob Murphy, said that 1BC had said, quote, all kinds

00:12:02.320 of crazy things, unquote, about Singh that were untrue. Quote, it's up to them, really. If they

00:12:07.420 got an allegation, they've got some evidence, it's up to them to bring it forward and produce it.

00:12:11.880 Murphy told infonews.ca, quote, Pavanese was vetted by both the BC United Party back in 2023 when it

00:12:17.580 existed, and his candidacy application was vetted by the party. The problem is he's literally the

00:12:22.580 vice president and he vetted himself. However, after the charges were confirmed by infonews.ca,

00:12:27.800 Murphy acknowledged them. In our judicial system, people were obviously considered innocent until

00:12:32.920 they're proven guilty. And in this case, there was no process that has that up for that because

00:12:37.160 the allegations was false and charges were dropped, which actually what he just said there

00:12:41.280 is false. The charges were not dropped. He was not proved, the allegations were not proven to be

00:12:46.500 false. They were stayed. And that's where we're going to get into what happened later. But notice

00:12:51.880 there that Rob Murphy first starts off guns blazing. 1BC says all sorts of crazy things.

00:12:58.480 It's all lies. They be lying on old Pavneet Singh. There's no charges. This must be like,

00:13:03.880 I guess, traffic violations and tickets or whatever, acts as if this doesn't even exist.

00:13:09.260 There's no allegation at all. So his own campaign manager didn't know. Apparently,

00:13:14.620 BC United didn't know. And apparently there was no vetting that BC conservatives did that unearthed

00:13:20.200 this for them to know either. Now let's get to the actual documents that we released and you

00:13:25.620 can go on to explain from there, Anthony. Yes. So here we have the actual physical

00:13:32.500 charges and one thing i want to touch on before we read this is that rob murphy and a lot of people

00:13:37.520 said hey if they have any actual evidence of charges they should bring them forward and then

00:13:42.020 what you're going to see after the fact is after we show this to the public then everyone says oh

00:13:46.660 this shouldn't have been public you gave too much information but there were three counts back in

00:13:51.600 2006 that were against pavnit singh so if you can read them there wide i'm just i can't see the

00:13:56.740 screen quite clearly here no worries i can do this so on count one it says pavnit singh on or about

00:14:02.000 the second day of July 2006 at or near Vernon in the province of British Columbia did sexually

00:14:07.240 assault blank contrary to section 271 of the criminal code. Second one is Pavneet Singh on

00:14:12.400 or about the second day of July 2006 at or near Vernon in the province of British Columbia did

00:14:17.240 for a sexual purpose touch directly or indirectly with a part of his body the body of blank a person

00:14:21.700 under the age of 14 years contrary to section 151 of the criminal code. Count three Pavneet Singh on

00:14:27.780 or about the second day of July 2006

00:14:29.980 at or near Vernon in the province of British Columbia

00:14:32.400 without lawful authority confined blank

00:14:34.840 contrary to section 2792 of the criminal code.

00:14:39.040 And this case ended up having actually

00:14:41.280 with other documents that we have attached

00:14:43.860 to these posts that we put out.

00:14:45.540 It had multiple days of trial scheduled for it.

00:14:49.880 And eventually the charges got stayed.

00:14:53.240 Now, stayed is very, very different

00:14:56.480 from being dropped or somebody got acquitted or withdrawn. These are two universally different

00:15:03.480 things. But Rob Murphy and Pavneet Singh have now kind of unified on this argument that, well,

00:15:08.980 it was stopped because of how innocent I was. But that's not actually true. That's actually

00:15:14.800 telling a lie in order to deflect. Now, I'm not saying if it's true or not. I'm asking questions

00:15:21.160 because this is something that voters should probably know about. And when you immediately

00:15:26.020 start your response to this with a lie that it was because I was so innocent that got withdrawn.

00:15:31.380 We need to know more of what's going on here. Yeah, absolutely. And you know what? The other

00:15:35.960 thing that's crucial to this story, Wyatt, is how we actually originally came into the information.

00:15:40.560 It was from principled members of the Kelowna Sikh community that reached out to us, that reached

00:15:45.160 out to 1BC going, we're very concerned about something that took place about 20 years ago,

00:15:49.920 and we are concerned that these charges were stayed. And essentially, the story was that

00:15:54.980 the victim, the alleged victim basically kind of disappeared or moved away right before the trial.

00:16:01.100 And then the trial kind of went away because the charges disappeared when she disappeared.

00:16:05.580 So they came to us and said, look, it's been 20 years. If the truth is able to come forward,

00:16:09.740 sometimes that gives enough confidence to a former victim to actually come forward and give their

00:16:13.780 story or if there's others. So at the end of the day, one thing that's really difficult when you're

00:16:17.960 dealing with sexual assault, sexual touching of a minor under the age of 14 and forced confinement,

00:16:24.980 these are extremely serious charges. But guys, keep in mind, when it's with a minor, a lot of

00:16:30.020 times in these court cases, if someone becomes nervous because of PTSD, trauma, they don't want

00:16:34.960 their life getting unearthed, maybe they were in a compromising position. Oftentimes, sexual

00:16:39.300 assault charges will disappear and they'll get stayed because the victim doesn't want to come

00:16:43.620 forward, doesn't want their life displayed on trial. And that's the thing that people have to

00:16:47.540 remember here. Again, I'm always going to demarcate this every once in a while, this video. It's not

00:16:52.040 confirmed, it's not confirmed, or it's not been proven wrong or proven true. He's still innocent

00:16:58.580 until proven guilty, obviously. But when prosecutors, at the very least, what I want to put out here,

00:17:04.980 prosecutors have the ability to say, this isn't anything, the man was misidentified, or there was

00:17:10.460 some piece of evidence that came out that disproved the whole thing. They can withdraw, they can

00:17:13.900 acquit, they can drop, or a judge would be acquitting, but they can drop the charges. They

00:17:18.640 can symbolically to the public say it is withdrawn against this person this has been dropped against

00:17:24.540 this person when you stay it it's because you want it to restart you want the process to be

00:17:30.260 able to keep going dropping it means you wouldn't be able to exactly or you'd have to go through

00:17:33.940 the rigmarole of charging them again you you stayed it because it stayed it's basically been

00:17:38.500 put on pause and that could happen like you pointed out because a witness no longer wants

00:17:43.020 to testify they feel intimidated they feel uncomfortable doing it they move away for like

00:17:48.220 reasons of PTSD or whatever. And that can throw out basically the whole case. They don't want to

00:17:53.640 drop it because they think it's serious, but they also can't continue with it until that person

00:17:58.600 agrees to cooperate again. But now we do need to get to-

00:18:01.500 Just one sec. There's something crucial here, Wyatt, because people are going to ask.

00:18:04.700 These charges and through the court system, the charge was in 2006 and it wasn't stayed until

00:18:10.140 2008. So this wasn't something that just happened, oh, we got the wrong guy and immediately the

00:18:14.900 charges are dropped. This went on from 2006 up until 2008 when the charges were finally stayed

00:18:21.000 and there was a three-day trial already booked to move forward. So that's crucial. And the second

00:18:26.140 thing that I'm sure many people are going to ask in the comments, how do you know that you have

00:18:29.720 the right Pavneet Singh? This is a very common name. Well, in the Infotel article, Pavneet

00:18:35.140 confirmed that the charges were with him. So we are talking about the right guy. We're talking

00:18:39.640 about the right case, but I want people to know the timeline. And we do, I want to get to his

00:18:43.420 response too because he defends himself here and says it's all wrong and whatnot but again within

00:18:48.160 his response he lies as well as confirms certain aspects of the story when i say lies it's because

00:18:54.760 he keeps insisting that will is dropped because i was innocent it's like you can you can say that

00:18:59.060 you can make that your opinion but you cannot claim that a stay means something that it does

00:19:04.280 not mean pavneet singh here says you might have seen some vicious sleazy attacks my political

00:19:09.060 rivals are circulating about me. Let me address. In 2006, I was celebrating Canada Day in a public

00:19:13.900 park, an incident with which I had nothing to do with occurred, and I was mistakenly accused

00:19:18.540 of being involved. I was falsely accused, and when the Crown prosecutor realized that,

00:19:23.100 the charges were stayed. I was innocent, and thankfully, the Crown finally realized that.

00:19:27.020 I have no criminal record. I have undergone multiple criminal record checks while running

00:19:31.240 for public office. It isn't disappointing that the political opponents are seeking to revive

00:19:34.800 a false accusation from 20 years ago to attack me i have been upstanding member of the community a

00:19:40.000 loyal father and husband and a proud british colombian seeking to serve his community in

00:19:44.240 canada one is presumed innocent until proven guilty not the other way around as my political

00:19:48.960 opponents have would points would be seemingly prefer i'm confident that british colombians will

00:19:54.080 be will see these despicable tactics by opponents for exactly what they are now the problem in here

00:20:01.520 again is that he says this has been basically un this was uh the crown prosecutor realized that

00:20:08.800 he's innocent and the charges were stayed but if they realize you're innocent they drop them

00:20:13.680 or they withdraw them you do not stay charges because of how innocent somebody is that's not

00:20:19.600 how that works and here as you might notice he confirms he was at the location that it happened

00:20:26.000 that was not even something in the charge documents he confirmed he was at the specific place

00:20:30.640 and that something did in fact happen it just wasn't me which raises more questions on well

00:20:36.000 what did you see happen what actually went down were you a witness to it did you do anything with

00:20:41.440 that information because the whole thing feels at least to me a little bit kind of too simple

00:20:48.000 in terms of his explanation it's just i was there stuff happened but it just wasn't me

00:20:52.960 yeah i don't understand why he wouldn't have applied to have the charges completely removed

00:20:56.960 So in a sense, if it was a misidentification, the charges wouldn't stay in the category of stayed.

00:21:02.180 They would be dealt with. They would be gone.

00:21:03.680 But they're still there. Public can still access them.

00:21:06.440 They're still on file.

00:21:07.900 So at that point, if you truly were innocent and misidentified, why didn't you take the next step?

00:21:12.500 Why didn't the prosecutor remove the charges completely?

00:21:15.400 So there's a lot of unanswered questions.

00:21:16.840 And you know what? We're really after here.

00:21:18.600 We're after accountability and transparency.

00:21:20.400 And there are ways that we can get that.

00:21:22.520 I mean, all of this documentation, the documentation from the courts, the transcripts,

00:21:25.820 everything can be released. All that process can be released. And at the end of the day,

00:21:29.240 if that vindicates him in his story, then that's fantastic. But if it doesn't, then the public

00:21:33.260 deserve to know. Because you know what would be worse here, Wyatt? We're pre-election. These are

00:21:37.440 very serious charges relating to a minor. And it is with someone who has a very interesting

00:21:42.660 background with some different controversies following him. If the charges actually have

00:21:47.520 validity to them, it's better to deal with them before being put into public office,

00:21:52.320 as opposed to getting put into public office, winning an election, and now we're dealing with

00:21:56.020 someone in government that now has these charges. And this is an individual that I would say,

00:22:01.460 with me, a story from them will always strain credulity because I am, if you know Pavneet

00:22:08.440 Singh, if you've been in conservative politics or politics in BC in that region, you know that this

00:22:13.520 is the guy who, when he won the BC United nomination for that riding, ended up selling

00:22:19.380 memberships to temporary foreign workers and students in order to win it. At the 2025 BC

00:22:25.640 Conservative Party AGM, he is well known to have been involved in bussing in 100 fake delegates,

00:22:32.160 i.e. they're technically real because the party can just declare them real on the spot,

00:22:35.520 but 100 people who we all know are not real conservative delegates wanting to sit down and

00:22:40.140 drink coffee and eat donuts and talk about policy with others. People who entered voted for the

00:22:44.620 slate that John Rustad and his team, who are now back effectively running the party again,

00:22:48.800 minus John Rustad. They voted for the slate they wanted on the board, voted through the

00:22:52.820 Constitution that gave the board so much power they were able to basically force out and threaten

00:22:57.600 Carrie Lynn Finley. He was involved in that, also involved in stuff around the leadership

00:23:03.760 review of John Rustad and massive amounts of fake names being on the lists for votes for the

00:23:11.960 leadership review in the Kelowna area when they were doing that regional vote for the leadership

00:23:17.300 review lots and lots of stuff has been going around a lot on around him so whenever he comes

00:23:24.100 out with like a simple explanation that even has holes in it then i'm just immediately sitting here

00:23:30.220 thinking i need more information from you not a very overly concise explanation for what is an

00:23:36.920 extremely serious charge well and you know what to magnify that even further let's not forget so he

00:23:43.700 was on the slate for Team Rustad at the AGM, which has all the controversy about the false

00:23:48.280 delegates and the scandal there with the packing, right? Everybody knows about that. It was a big

00:23:52.800 story. However, so he gets put onto the board. He gets placed onto the management committee.

00:23:57.920 Then there's the scandal surrounding the management committee with the claims that

00:24:00.880 came forward that he voted himself in as vice president after Asia, Esty and Sharon resigned.

00:24:05.420 Then after being vice president, don't forget you guys, what are we talking about in this video

00:24:09.580 today. We're talking about candidates and vetting. Who decides who the candidates are in the 2026

00:24:15.800 election? Those decisions are made by the Elections Readiness Committee. The Elections

00:24:20.160 Readiness Committee has a chair and co-chair. The chair and co-chair of the Elections Readiness

00:24:23.780 Committee select the rest of the committee. They vet the candidates. They select who gets which

00:24:28.100 riding. So here's the part that's very interesting. Who's the co-chair of the Elections Readiness

00:24:33.080 Committee? It's Pavneet Singh. And to make matters even more magnified, so he places himself, he's

00:24:39.260 vice president, places himself on the Elections Readiness Committee chair, and now here comes

00:24:45.100 the candidate for Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream. Do you guys remember who put their name forward

00:24:50.280 for Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream? Tracy Gray, fully vetted, front bench, conservative member

00:24:57.100 of parliament. Vetted over and over again. A phenomenal candidate. Everybody loved her.

00:25:01.740 Within three hours, she posted to X that within three hours of placing her name forward for

00:25:06.640 Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream. She had 500 nominations signed, significantly more than

00:25:11.940 Pavneet, and 2,000 emails sent to the party board. So they receive all of this. They place

00:25:17.900 it to the board of directors. And Pavneet Singh goes, well, actually, no, I'm just going to select

00:25:22.700 myself because I'm the co-chair of the Elections Readiness Committee. I mean, this is insane. And

00:25:27.240 now we're dealing with criminal charges and all of this history. And they could have had Tracy

00:25:31.560 Gray in there. And it doesn't stop there because this is something else I want answers from

00:25:36.100 for from Pavneet Singh. Here is a list of, you know, court proceedings involving him. Most of

00:25:43.140 them are small claims or motor vehicle incidents, whatever. I don't care about those. I care about

00:25:48.380 the first one here. That is Pavneet Singh and Etka Bamara. This is a Supreme Family Court

00:25:59.280 proceeding. We, the same people who tipped us off regarding the assault charge, tipped us off about

00:26:06.220 this, saying that it was a divorce proceeding. And you will notice that the file opened on April 30th,

00:26:11.440 2007, and the 18th of February, 2008. This actually overlaps with the assault charge proceedings

00:26:20.940 between 2007 and 2008, or between when the assault charge thing happened in November 2006,

00:26:28.060 and some ending in sometime in 2008. And this is maybe this is going really into the weeds,

00:26:34.220 but it's actually pretty, it seems like there's a lot of smoke here that I want an answer on.

00:26:39.640 He came to Canada in 2003 as a foreign student, so not a permanent resident, obviously not a

00:26:46.500 citizen. At some point, he was married. And when you are married, you can have your spouse sponsored

00:26:52.800 if they're not a citizen to become a citizen usually within a year and then the man gets

00:26:58.720 apparently like uh he gets allegedly divorced between 2007 and 8 that the proceedings start

00:27:05.480 a little bit sketchy on that one and that is another giant question mark i would love pav

00:27:10.940 meet singh to tell us about i'd love to see when the actual citizenship was granted because if you

00:27:16.260 go from 2003 showing up as a foreign student to 2004 2005 getting married and then becoming a

00:27:23.080 citizen sometimes in 2006 7 and then you immediately get divorced in ilhan omar much like i don't

00:27:30.600 really know what to say about that yeah and you know what it's just it's just crazy why like at

00:27:35.540 the end of the day people are making it out as though this is some absolute political assault

00:27:39.120 it has nothing to do with the political assault you guys these are elected officials these are

00:27:42.540 people are running to be in government likely going to end up in some cabinet positions

00:27:45.980 making decisions on behalf of this entire province.

00:27:48.780 When there's this type of history about any candidate,

00:27:51.420 the public deserves to know the truth.

00:27:53.120 And asking questions and ensuring that the public can make an informed decision

00:27:56.500 is actually just being transparent and accountable.

00:27:59.340 It's holding a higher standard.

00:28:01.000 They have no leg to stand on also saying that this is just too much scrutiny,

00:28:05.280 too much cherry picking.

00:28:06.660 It's not cherry picking at all, by the way.

00:28:08.780 This is the same party, the BC Conservative Party,

00:28:10.960 that kicked out Dallas Brody for four seconds out of context footage that they cut themselves and

00:28:19.020 they put out a kind of like a BS explanation for what the context was. They were the ones who did

00:28:25.720 that to Dallas Brody. And now they don't want similar scrutiny being put on their own candidates,

00:28:31.300 people who ideologically are clearly left wing. That woman before we were showing Margaretta

00:28:35.500 Dogval. She was a federal liberal women's organizer. She was involved in youth liberal 0.99

00:28:41.840 organizations, other federal liberal organizations, from the moment Justin Trudeau came onto the scene

00:28:46.680 to after the 2025 election. Now she's a proud conservative. We've had BC Green and federal

00:28:53.860 liberal candidates running for the BC conservatives in this election, people who are just woke in all

00:28:58.680 caps, people who are in favor of DRIPA. Zeeshan Walla, one of their candidates in Surrey, literally

00:29:05.000 denounced eb for not being pro drippa enough what are we doing people and who selects all these

00:29:14.340 candidates who makes the selection the elections readiness committee chair and co-chair which

00:29:21.920 includes pavneet singh is the conservative party of british columbia vetting their candidates how

00:29:28.940 did they miss them who's responsible for vetting pavneet singh has a role to play here and again

00:29:34.080 a crucial question. Why was Pavneet Singh more qualified to be the candidate for Kelowna Lake

00:29:41.740 Country Coldstream over Tracy Gray? I will tell you right now. If Tracy Gray would have run in

00:29:47.080 the Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream riding, 1BC and Alexandra Wright would not have run against 1.00

00:29:52.440 her. She's a very qualified conservative candidate with a clean record. Why in the world when she 0.95

00:29:58.220 had 500 signatures and he said he had 150, why in the world did they select her? It doesn't make

00:30:03.480 any sense. So again, it's connected here and these are crucial questions to ask. Yeah. This is the

00:30:09.340 last thing I want to leave people on is that I think this is the meme that really defines this

00:30:14.200 current election. It is the classic, the leopards eating people's faces party. Proud member, quote,

00:30:21.320 it's not like they're going to eat my face. This is the problem with the VC conservatives right

00:30:25.620 now is so many people just saying, just vote blue no matter who. It doesn't matter. We just need to

00:30:29.440 get the NDP out. You also need to hold your own side accountable or you're going to let them slip

00:30:35.020 in to acting in many ways like the NDP. And in two years, I don't want it to be an I told you so

00:30:40.480 situation, but it might be where a lot of people are going to say, well, you know, the change that

00:30:45.080 they made over EB wasn't as substantial as I thought. It kept sliding. What do you think a

00:30:49.460 lot of federal liberals probably feel after they voted liberal one more time with Mark Carney and

00:30:54.420 we're losing jobs left and right. And most on most metrics, Canada's not doing any better than

00:31:00.180 when we were with Justin Trudeau. People can be very easily kind of pushed into just thinking,

00:31:04.920 no, no, things have changed. Don't worry, guys. Yes, the old guard are all back from the BC

00:31:08.960 liberals, but don't worry, there's a blue paint job on the outside now. Like literally, all of

00:31:13.020 them are back. Gordon Campbell's back. Andrew Wilkinson's back. Christy Clark is back. And

00:31:17.620 they forced out a lot of the actual conservative people behind the scenes. A lot of the actual

00:31:22.300 conservative candidates, shoving people into unwinnable writings to make room for a liberal.

00:31:27.420 And don't forget, Andrew Wilkinson today just endorsed Carson Binda for Vancouver Quilchenna,

00:31:32.340 right? So this is what we're dealing with. It's just example after example,

00:31:36.180 candidate selection error after candidate selection error. It seems as though it's

00:31:38.840 being done intentionally by the Elections Readiness Committee, including Pavneet Singh.

00:31:42.680 But here's the real fundamental problem that I'm having, Wyatt. Over and over again,

00:31:46.200 we're being told, oh, 1BC is the problem. 1BC is the problem. It's grievance politics.

00:31:51.020 it's vote splitting and it's like no it isn't it's about having ethics morals and actual standard

00:31:57.380 and accountability and you know what's crazy Wyatt when we get all this pushback oh you guys

00:32:01.860 well you just got to keep the NDP out you got to pinch your nose and vote conservative it's like

00:32:05.820 hold on a sec whose fault is it that we're in this situation is it one BC's fault or should

00:32:11.420 there be any accountability for the actions and decisions of the conservative party and their

00:32:16.180 leadership. Absolutely. I think I want to leave people with that. We'll definitely be coming up

00:32:22.820 with follow-up reports, because no doubt this is a rabbit hole that is going to go down a lot

00:32:27.960 further. But thank you for coming on, Anthony. And of course, anyone watching, if you're in a

00:32:32.840 riding with a 1BC candidate, make sure to get out and vote for them. The early voting is currently

00:32:37.360 on from today until the 21st. And then the official last voting day, election day, is October 24th.

00:32:44.720 So thank you all for tuning in.

00:32:47.460 Make sure to like, share, subscribe,

00:32:48.700 and we'll see you guys all next time.
