The British Columbia government refuses to acknowledge that a woman is a woman, despite the fact that the UK High Court has just ruled that a man is not a woman. What is the difference between a woman and a man? And why is it so hard for them to even acknowledge biological reality?

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. Despite the ongoing federal election, we have to check in with BC
00:00:07.520 provincial politics because something absolutely insane happened the other day in the legislature.
00:00:13.600 If you're not aware, the other day the UK High Court ruled that a woman is not a man, that a woman
00:00:21.040 is a biological human female, and so an independent BC MLA, Tara Armstrong, a very good MLA by the way, 0.50
00:00:30.160 stood up to ask the BC government run by the NDP whether they know what a woman is or not,
00:00:36.640 and they were unable to answer this. In fact, they got very angry that this question was even
00:00:41.660 asked of them and started virtue signaling about how much they care about trans and two-spirit people.
00:00:48.180 It's utterly ridiculous. I'm about to get into this video in just a second, but I just want to remind
00:00:53.020 you guys, if you like my federal election coverage and my other videos, make sure to like this video,
00:00:58.380 subscribe to the channel if you are not yet a subscriber. Usually about half of people watching
00:01:02.680 the videos are not yet subscribers. And also leave a comment on the topic of the day. What do you think
00:01:08.120 about this? And by the way, what do you think about the BC conservatives not actually standing to clap
00:01:14.360 or even acknowledge Tara's very good question here? Because there's a lot of conservative subtext
00:01:20.100 going on in this whole scenario here of why the BC conservatives are so weak that these three
00:01:25.980 independent MLA's are having to do the things that they should be doing themselves.
00:01:31.040 Mr. Speaker, the UK's top court just issued a historic ruling to keep men out of women's bathrooms,
00:01:40.660 change rooms, and prisons. All it had to do was acknowledge the biological reality that a man
00:01:50.220 is not a woman. Mr. Speaker, can the Premier prove his own grip on reality here for us all today
00:01:58.180 by answering the same basic question? What is a woman? 0.99
00:02:04.480 You will notice that David Eby is not the one who attempts to answer this question or even
00:02:11.520 acknowledges its existence because he can't answer it. He is about to pass it on to his Attorney General.
00:02:20.000 Attorney General?
00:02:21.600 Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I find myself once again rising to respond to a question that I wish I didn't
00:02:27.140 have to respond to. I want to...
00:02:29.760 Why? Why is it wrong to have to acknowledge biological reality?
00:02:33.520 I want to send a message to all queer, trans, and two-spirit people in this province that we stand
00:02:38.380 with you and we see you. And we on this side of the house are going to fight for an inclusive society
00:02:43.640 for all people. For all people. We're going to make sure that our laws and all of our policies
00:02:49.860 respect and stand up for the rights of all people. We're going to keep doing that work in this house
00:02:55.680 and I hope that we would have a majority of this house on side with that work. And once again,
00:03:00.620 I just want to say that I am really sorry that we're facing the type of politics that's pitting
00:03:09.200 communities against each other, that's creating division and fear in this province. And I strongly
00:03:17.040 condemn that type of politics here in this house and I think we all need to.
00:03:20.060 Of course, the NDP claps for that. I would hope that somebody would be going around,
00:03:28.640 especially in Surrey, and knocking on the doors of anyone who voted for the NDP, especially from
00:03:34.060 the South Asian community, and let them know that your MLA just clapped in favor of someone who was
00:03:39.380 unwilling to acknowledge that women are women and that they should have their own private spaces in 1.00
00:03:44.680 society, like change rooms, like prisons, like crisis shelters, which BC at times have been so
00:03:53.060 insane that there used to be a women's only crisis shelter for people who are like domestic abuse
00:03:58.780 victims that was shut down because they wouldn't let men into it. Men pretending to be women. 0.79
00:04:04.960 That is, these people lack all moral logic. And saying that Tara Armstrong is trying to pit 1.00
00:04:11.320 communities against each other is a complete farce. No, in fact, Tara Armstrong wants you to 0.95
00:04:17.020 respect women, respect their spaces, and acknowledge biological reality. If that is
00:04:23.080 discriminatory, if that is nasty, if that is divisive, I think the problem is with you
00:04:29.080 and your perception of reality rather than what Tara said.
00:04:32.620 Members supplemental?
00:04:44.380 The member may deflect on what a woman is, but perhaps we'll rise to answer my next question
00:04:52.320 about a man a psychologist who reportedly works for the Ministry of
00:04:58.380 Children and Families this individual bragged about transitioning 1,000
00:05:05.160 children half of whom were in government care and some as young as a mere three
00:05:11.540 years old the same person is on record coaching kids to threaten suicide to
00:05:18.240 access harmful and irreversible gender transition procedures by the way what
00:05:24.780 she's saying here is not some conspiracy theory this is something that actually
00:05:28.740 happened that this doctor has publicly celebrated and there's a lot of
00:05:31.860 exposés on how insane this person is and yes they are it's still employed so my
00:05:36.600 next question is actually very simple it really is just a yes or no answer will
00:05:41.820 this premier finally ban the brainwashing sterilization and mutilation of our
00:05:49.500 precious children by these so-called medical professionals
00:05:57.420 attorney general thank you mr. speaker there can be no simple yes or no to the
00:06:04.920 type of hate that was just raised in this house right now the type of hate that
00:06:09.540 seeks to deny an identity of people identity of three-year-olds being
00:06:14.560 transitioned really I'm gonna go back to her and just say but really it is a
00:06:19.200 fundamental identity of a three-year-old that they are not the the the sex they
00:06:24.640 were born as they are in fact a different thing and they need to be
00:06:27.080 transitioned by some insane activist doctor no in fact that's hateful that's an
00:06:32.360 extremely hateful thing to do that is a hateful thing to do against youth
00:06:36.620 against people who are not adults yet against people who are trying to figure
00:06:40.640 out the world it's hateful to like enable aberrant behavior in the minors who
00:06:47.380 are who aren't even in school yet that they think they're a girl so you're going to 0.51
00:06:51.240 make them a girl that's actually insane and no terror is not hateful again illogic 0.57
00:06:57.520 downloading illogic onto minors is hateful and seeks to create this cloud of fear
00:07:04.440 and mistrust and misinformation about what that identity is in this province again I
00:07:10.880 condemn it mr speaker and I hope the whole house would stand in condemning that to
00:07:14.940 trans people in this promise we see you we support you we will fight for your
00:07:19.280 equality and we'll fight for safe places for you to show up across this province
00:07:23.120 thank you mr oh it gets a full round of applause from the benches of the bcn db
00:07:29.840 government insane and guess who didn't clap for tara's question the bc conservatives
00:07:36.000 like I know dallas brody was sitting there and didn't clap but obviously there's only
00:07:39.220 her so it'd just be like a very muted applause by one person jordan keely's also
00:07:44.420 thereby I believe he doesn't actually sit close to them in the uh in the
00:07:48.040 legislative legislative halls but with where are the bc conservatives where
00:07:53.500 are them backing up tara and dallas brody and jordan keely when they've been
00:07:57.760 asking very good questions to the government jordan tara and dallas will
00:08:01.700 still compliment good questions from bc conservatives but the bc
00:08:05.840 conservatives right now run by the deeply pathetic john rusted will not
00:08:10.620 actually back up tara on this they don't want to touch it in fact one of the
00:08:14.820 people who is a big power player in caucus right now eleanor storko I've been
00:08:18.820 told runs around caucus screaming at people for being homophobic
00:08:22.600 that actually happened to jordan keely at one point because he didn't want to wear
00:08:26.280 the pink shirt on pink shirt day and instead made his own video condemning
00:08:30.540 bullying without doing the virtue signaling he just thought it's silly and
00:08:34.320 symbolic so why don't we just not bully people rather than wearing pink t-shirts
00:08:38.240 while others who are wearing the shirts engage in bullying behavior he's
00:08:42.400 absolutely correct there's other extremely hardcore woke people right now
00:08:47.160 running the bc conservative party both in the party hq as well as in the
00:08:52.380 caucus amelia bulby is one of them that I
00:08:54.940 highlighted the other day who said that if you agree or you're like dallas
00:08:58.560 brody she doesn't want your vote i.e if you don't believe in the farce that
00:09:04.400 there are 215 dead children under the kamloops residential school
00:09:07.940 she doesn't want your vote and by the way I confront confronted her at one point
00:09:12.580 about the fact that she almost lost a very safe seat for the bc conservatives and
00:09:17.140 she said it was a historic victory she won penticton summerlands by only 1.5%
00:09:22.480 a riding that the bc liberals who were effectively the center to center right
00:09:27.540 they're a very wide-ranging center center left to center right option but
00:09:30.940 conservative people would vote for the bc liberals even in 2020 where the bc
00:09:34.720 liberals got wiped out they still won that riding by like 10 points and she
00:09:38.800 barely won at this last election because she is an unpleasant woke 1.00
00:09:42.480 individual that is why there are people like peter millibar who in fact the other
00:09:47.380 day helped kill dallas brody's private
00:09:50.480 members bill to cut taxes and regulations heavily
00:09:53.520 it was going to reduce taxes for people making less than a hundred thousand
00:09:57.400 dollars a year by 50 percent and 25 percent for everything past that
00:10:01.500 including corporate taxes and you may think well that could greatly affect bc
00:10:05.980 government revenues maybe a little bit in the short run
00:10:09.180 the thing is that there's enough wasteful spending to actually be able to get
00:10:12.700 at least close to a balanced budget in bc even with those big tax cuts
00:10:16.700 and a big tax cut in bc would actually help government revenues in the medium to
00:10:21.260 long term because right now taxes and regulations are so
00:10:25.340 bleedingly high in british columbia that it's chasing out businesses and
00:10:31.100 fairly wealthy individuals both east as well as south people are going to
00:10:36.300 alberta or saskatchewan or manitoba or ontario or they're going down to the
00:10:40.380 united states because you can't make any money in bc housing's too expensive
00:10:44.460 health care sucks everything sucks and the bc conservatives helped the bc ndp
00:10:50.380 kill that bill from dallas brody because they're petty and then john rusted puts up 0.81
00:10:55.580 a crappy version of what dallas proposed up into the legislature a few days later no explanation
00:11:03.340 no explanation given what it's so pathetic that the bc conservatives at this point could not win an
00:11:10.220 election as hard as they tried because they're incompetent they're run by the same people who
00:11:15.020 right now who helped kill the united party or if they weren't involved in united they're the
00:11:19.820 same type of person who would have killed united just risk management all they do is risk management
00:11:26.300 they are run by people like alia warbus in the house who think it's racist to say things like
00:11:31.980 there are not bodies underneath the kamloops residential school stating a fact even if you
00:11:37.020 think as everyone pretty much does that residential schools were generally very bad even if you think
00:11:43.420 that and you just acknowledge the fact that there is not bodies under the kamloops residential school
00:11:47.500 alia warbus thinks that's denialism and it's terrible she is currently the bc conservative
00:11:51.900 house leader i talk to people still in caucus for the bc conservatives they think these individuals
00:11:57.580 in caucus who are running the show that john lets run the show are horrible and i hope a bunch of
00:12:02.300 them stand up at some point because when i say i talked a lot of them i mean i talked to dozens of
00:12:06.460 them they don't like these people and they are making sure that the bc ndp are going to keep winning
00:12:10.940 in the future because guess what in 2024 the economy in bc was horrible the healthcare situation
00:12:16.380 was horrible the drug situation was horrible the bc conservatives need to be really prepared for the
00:12:22.380 next election because if the ndp even do slight things to make the provincial like you know make
00:12:28.300 the province better or even if poly of gets in on the federal level and it just makes canada better
00:12:32.700 in general and by proxy makes it look like things aren't as bad in bc anymore the bc ndp have a good
00:12:38.220 chance of getting re-elected again if the bc conservatives decide that like kevin falcon and
00:12:43.340 the bc united they are going to offer slight change only at the bc conservative agm this is turning into
00:12:49.420 a rant about bc conservative politics there was a panel at the agm where two of the mla said that
00:12:55.180 see the problem right now with the bc government is that they they're just not efficient enough with
00:12:59.180 the spending no it's that you need to stop spending you need to cut spending you need to cut taxes
00:13:05.500 that is in fact something a lot of voters want right now like a majority of voters think that
00:13:10.380 the government in canada and on the provincial level in bc spends way too much which implies
00:13:16.060 they want cuts and they also want tax cuts they want regulation cuts they want tough on crime laws
00:13:20.620 and so the bc conservatives in the in the campaign would kind of have to do that and then they'd pull
00:13:25.660 back at the last minute they would have go for it and then they would get nervous and pull back that's
00:13:29.740 why they in fact ran a deficit in their budget of 12 billion in fact every single day in the
00:13:35.260 legislature the bc conservatives based on their own crappy campaign should have stood up and clapped
00:13:40.620 for the ndp because wow they only have a 10 billion dollar deficit real we ran on a 12 billion dollar
00:13:45.820 deficit these guys are positively economic like hawks compared to us ridiculous so yeah i wish dallas
00:13:54.780 brody and tara armstrong and jordan keely well in their mission as independent mlas right now and i
00:14:01.180 hope that one day the bc conservatives pull their head out of their butts and they actually start
00:14:05.660 opposing the government rather than just nipping around the edges i was even told that eleanor sterko
00:14:11.580 got mad at one of the other mlas because they were too opposed to soji one two three because they
00:14:16.860 just want to get rid of it entirely rather than just declaring that some of the materials in schools
00:14:21.100 are age inappropriate no all of the materials are completely sexually inappropriate for anybody
00:14:27.660 to witness it's all gross crap that nobody should be exposed to not just people under the age of 12
00:14:34.540 anyone nobody should be reading this crap that's in the soji curriculum anyway so that should be it for
00:14:40.860 me today guys make sure again if you like this video to you know put a like on the video subscribe
00:14:45.900 of the channel leave a comment do all that great stuff bc is an absolute basket case right now the
00:14:52.540 bc conservatives are still better than united but the problem is if you're only going to be 10
00:14:56.700 better than united was and united was only probably going to be 10 better than the bc and dp were the
00:15:01.980 problem is it makes it difficult to win an election i am actually trying to help save bc right now
00:15:08.460 by criticizing the bc conservatives because voters only show up when there's significant change on the
00:15:13.500 ballot this is why o'toole did not win in 2021 this is why andrew shear did not win in 2015 2019 and in
00:15:19.580 fact that's actually why trudeau won in 2015. trudeau as crappy of a prime minister as he was he actually
00:15:25.340 did run on massive change the change was all bad but running on massive change helps if the bc
00:15:30.940 conservatives insist now that they have gotten a fairly large caucus into the legislature to kind of
00:15:36.780 fall back in on themselves and just run on mild change you're just going to keep losing and
00:15:42.300 throwing elections back over to the bc ndp now if the children in hq in the bc conservatives would
00:15:48.860 stop overpaying themselves for five seconds and actually figure out what voters want they might
00:15:53.500 actually be able to win an election but instead they're too busy cutting themselves six-figure bonus
00:15:57.660 checks and then just making sure to staff up hq with sycophants who don't like thinking
00:16:02.860 so anyways that should be it for me today guys see you later
00:16:11.420 you
