00:02:49.720Like, but yeah, don't go on Patrick Brett David.
00:02:51.540Don't go on some, like, American, like, oh, like, this guy popped on the scene, like, a couple years ago and then, like, started interviewing people randomly.
00:03:04.580He's just a millionaire who ended up basically paying for a podcasting studio and started paying people to come on to his show to make him look big.
00:03:12.380And so now he sees himself as, like, a big tastemaker in politics everywhere.
00:03:16.680The amount of people who watch his show in Canada are probably, like, 5% of his audience at best, which he has to be absolutely hitting it out of the park for that 5% to be worth here, Polyev, coming on.
00:03:27.800And somebody even pointed out to me, like, well, it'd be a really big show if Polyev went on.
00:03:31.460I'm like, yeah, because Polyev could just fart out a video on a channel with zero subscribers and it would do well because people are interested in watching him.
00:03:40.760Going on with Patrick Brett David, who just had Andrew Tate on, is stupid.
00:03:43.920But now, because Patrick Brett David is a spurned lover, he has had on Maxime Bernier.
00:03:51.480He says, I respect any candidate who is not afraid to sit down.
00:07:23.780Yeah, there's maybe a couple ridings where somebody went in and then they heard, oh, this guy seems like more of the Conservative, and they don't understand how the system works.
00:07:34.260Like, council races are where vote-splitting happens.
00:07:37.060Or vote-splitting happens in, like, Ontario, when a bunch of fake Conservative parties run as an alternative to the new blue party just to mess with the environment to make it seem like it's dysfunctional.
00:07:50.380But actual vote-splitting is very hard to come by in federal politics.
00:07:55.820And so I don't blame the PPC for getting whatever vote they get.
00:08:02.540And they're wasting the time of their donors and their limited amount of volunteers pretending like they're eventually going to get something done.
00:08:10.160I even had one PPC guy saying, well, people know that the PPC is eventually going to be the new mainstream in Canada or the future mainstream.
00:08:18.140Like, you're basically just saying you're not even going to try this election.
00:08:48.400Lord Carney is likely to declare an election this Sunday and have a snap election.
00:08:53.240So I'll be, we can have some debate on this.
00:08:57.000I think it's a good move for Carney to call an election as soon as you can.
00:09:02.220Carney's never going to get more popular than this.
00:09:03.640Every time he opens his mouth, disaster ruins, as soon as people figure out, like, they can sell him as a smart businessman who knows the way the world works, Harvard educated, whereas Trudeau was a buffoon.
00:09:17.940But they need to sell him before people figure out that a global banker is not the same as a businessman.
00:09:24.760This guy's never, like, he's not a leader of man.
00:09:26.920He's, like, someone who moves numbers around on a spreadsheet and prints money and has never really done anything of value in his life and is just, has made, you know, he's just, he's just entrenched in these global technocratic institutions who purport wacky, you know, usually environmentally based left-wing ideas.
00:09:46.980And that, once people see that for how it is, like, he's going to go down.
00:09:51.600So I think his best thing is ride the honeymoon, be Prime Minister of Canada, go around as Prime Minister, fly off to Europe.
00:09:59.040Fly to Europe, shake hands with the English and French, some of your old contacts from your European banking days, pull in some favours, talk about whatever, talk bullshit about, make people see you as a leader of Canada who's dealing with France, and then come back and call an election when your numbers will never be higher.
00:10:15.740Because you have the perfect scenario where you can run against Donald Trump instead of Pierre Polyev.
00:10:20.360So that, that would be my, if I was a liberal, that's what I would go with.
00:10:23.240I would say, and as, as of more than two days ago, more than 48 hours ago, I would agree that that would be the move for Carney.
00:10:31.040Call the election early, you know, you, you, you're as popular as you're ever going to would be.
00:10:35.600The problem is, after I think the Trump-Fox News problem dropped, now there is this very obvious attack line the Conservatives had.
00:10:45.260He just had a really bad week with all of his stumbling and falling apart in press conferences.
00:10:50.360Him contradicting himself on the carbon tax, saying, well, we do need one, and we're not going to have to be able to trade into the EU.
00:10:56.700And so that's how he's going to justify increasing the industrial carbon tax even more.
00:11:00.420And there's just been a few other things.
00:11:01.580Him bringing on that Century Initiative guy, like, or Century Institute or whatever, that is such a bad move.
00:11:08.380He brought on a guy who wants to get the Canadian population to 100 million by the year 2100.
00:11:15.280The amount of, like, gains in population that they were going to have to make per year to do that are unsustainable and obviously would ruin the country.
00:11:24.980And again, we're saying this as conservative people who don't want to see the Liberals win at all.
00:11:29.640At the same time, if I was Carney's advisor, I would say, okay, we've had a, we've had a rough week.
00:11:36.700Like, let's wait a month, let's get you signing a couple things, let's get you trying to maybe even work in the legislature, show that the Conservatives won't work with you and you're willing to make it Team Canada and they weren't supporting Team Canada, and then call the election.
00:11:49.560I think he needs a little, this sounds even shallow, he needs a bit more B-roll.
00:11:54.640He doesn't have enough B-roll footage of him walking around looking confident and signing stuff.
00:11:59.460He's been to France, he's been with the King, and he was with the Premier of Nunavut.
00:12:03.860Like, there's not really great footage here for him to run with.
00:12:12.460To be fair, the risk of my plan is that if you slip farther and all the rot starts setting in, it could be even worse and all this stuff doesn't matter because it's too inside baseball.
00:12:22.620Exactly, I think you're trying to threaten Nito.
00:12:24.460Like, listen, if your plan works, right, if they, but the problem is, you think his team is Team Trudeau.
00:12:32.180Like, how long can you go before Stephanie Gabibliot goes, we must have eco-terrorism, I'm going to climb the CN Tower, and then I'm going to jump on a, and blow up all of Alberta, right?
00:12:45.960It sounds like Stephen Gilboa plus Melanie Jolie.
00:12:48.160Yeah, and Melanie Jolie is going to be around, like, well, like, the problem with the climate is Israel, and we want a ceasefire now on the climate ceasefire.
00:13:01.400We're flying to Europe for a ceasefire on the climate because it's really important to us in Ukraine.
00:13:09.420So, yeah, you, like, so while Mark Carney might be capable of being, like, I am from Goldman Sachs, Harvard, business, whatever.
00:13:15.980Like, eventually all these, you're ahead of a pack of ding-dongs, and all these, like, Christopher Freeland's just going to twitch, right, and you're going to get that again.
00:13:26.700And then people are like, oh, shit, these are the liberals.
00:13:29.380That's why I liked, I like my op, my psyop I was running against the left where I started calling Mark Carney, Marks Carney, and they played into it perfectly because every time I'd start doing that, a bunch of them would start arguing with me, and I would start describing his resume, his actual resume that they usually won't admit to, and they're like, well, yeah, that's true, but that's not communism.
00:13:52.620I'm like, yeah, you just admitted that he is, in fact, a central planner, that he is an economic organizer.
00:13:58.260He does not actually like the free market, but he's not a communist.
00:14:02.000I'm like, yeah, it's a hyperbolic label to get you to admit to the other thing that you wouldn't have normally admitted to, that he is a very big government Keynesian economist who believes in government growth of the economy, not private growth of the economy.
00:14:17.360I just want to get to this question quick.
00:14:18.680They say, National Telegraph, when do you think we are going to see the polls fall back to Earth?
00:14:23.700I assume that that's what you meant, so I was interpreting a bit.
00:14:25.760But I think that we're probably going to be seeing that in like a week or two.
00:14:31.400The problem is that the polls I like are innovative research and abacus data.
00:14:38.120It's not just because they're the ones that still show the conservatives up.
00:14:40.500I've been calling it for a few months now that they're my favorites because what they showed is when Trudeau was swapped out.
00:14:47.100But one, they weren't like the weirdo polls like ECOS and Angus Reid, who when Trudeau was really unpopular in the middle of December, abacus never put the liberals down to like 16% or down to 17% like some of these other ones did.
00:15:18.020Whereas the people the liberals are currently winning are mostly older boomer voters and women.
00:15:24.600And then even those people, when you look at the polls, they're less certain that they are going to stick with the liberals than the conservative voters are sure that they're going to stick with them.
00:15:33.860So that's why right now, after all these gaffes with Trump saying, yeah, I'd like to work with the liberals more than the conservatives, I think you're going to see a bit of a contraction.
00:15:43.000And if innovative, which had the conservatives plus six in their last one and abacus had them plus four in their last one, if they were right, we could quite easily start seeing plus eights and plus sevens and plus nines again.
00:15:53.340And that's when we're in a more comfortable majority territory.
00:55:03.480Five years ago, if you reduced it to 250,000 from what it was at the time, like 350,000, I'd be like, fair enough.
00:55:09.920We haven't quite had those million-a-person years yet.
00:55:13.420But once we had the years where we had more than a million people entering the country, now it needs to be 100,000 a year for at least, like, five to seven years.
00:55:21.820And then we can figure out what we want to do.
00:55:23.940By the way, I'm not sure what your opinion is on this, Daniel.
00:55:26.860You can sound off in a second, but I think temporary foreign worker visas need to be temporary in the sense that if you – once you overstay it, you don't even get to reapply for another two years.
00:55:37.540You get to go home, figure out if you want to work at home, and then if you're out of a job in a couple more years, you can come back and work here again.
00:55:46.520It shouldn't be something where you can keep technically – you can effectively be a permanent resident forever because you can always just get a new renewal.
00:55:53.240Yeah. I mean, it should be – yeah, there should be a you-should-go-back-to-renew type thing.
00:56:00.300Because you should – and the thing is, it's not your home, and if anything, it's not good for your own country to have people just coming overseas to not actually build up that local economy.
00:56:10.300Yeah, the remittances are nice, plus I would love a remittance tax.
00:56:13.180You shouldn't be able to just send money back willy-nilly without it being taxed because it is legitimately sucking money out of the economy for no actual value to the Canadian economy.
00:56:41.040Thoughts on Carney trying to drop us into the EU?
00:56:43.960That's a big no thanks, no commies in Brussels running every aspect of our lives.
00:56:48.000Because I'm not sure if he's like obviously wanting to bring us into the EU, but he wants us to be...
00:56:54.060Oh, he does. I think he does. I think he wants us in the EU.
00:56:56.060I think if I know these people, if I speak Trudeau fluently and I can speak the Carney dialect of Trudeau, I think, I think he absolutely wants to bring us into the EU.
00:57:04.960I meant like maybe not officially, but I was going to say he would be willing to try and bring Canada under EU economic regulations and migration regulations because he'll say that unless we do this, we can't trade with them.
00:57:34.960By the way, both me and Daniel were right about that stupid JCCF lawsuit over the prorogation where they were citing British, like UK lawsuits or UK cases to say that you can't prorogate government.
00:58:00.240And I think it should stay legal unless legislation is passed saying that you can only use it for these explicit reasons and it can only go on for this long.
00:58:07.700I think that's fine because in our charter, technically, you only have to meet once a year to pass a spending bill.
00:58:13.020They have passed a spending bill or at least they can extend it out if they need to once they hit the time limit.
00:58:18.080But the thing is that I don't want UK precedent in Canada because have you seen the UK?
00:58:25.000Tommy Robinson is currently in prison for saying things that rumors...
00:58:29.300They're about to enact Islamic blasphemy laws, right?
00:58:45.540The Conservatives seem to me to be spending too much time making sure their stances don't offend anyone and not enough time pointing out why their stances are common sense.
01:01:21.620And I'm proud that they are doing it because it shows that we, the conservatives, have been able to slowly start taking Canada out of the tailspin that the liberals put it on.
01:01:49.000Usually whenever we talk about elections being a referendum on one of the people, you don't want it to be a referendum on you.
01:01:56.260So Kamala Harris had the last election become a referendum on her and Joe Biden, and that's why she lost.
01:02:02.260In 2020, I know, like, you know, all issues aside with crazy amounts of mail-in ballots, and it wasn't really a full-on normal election because people were lazy voting was everywhere where you can send in a ballot by, like, farting.
01:02:14.280So naturally, you got a lot of, you know, people who aren't, really don't have their heart into who they voted for.
01:02:19.240But you could say that that was an election, that the referendum was against Donald Trump, so it made it very difficult for him to win.
01:02:26.800And in Canada's case, though, the reason why you actually do want it to be a referendum on you is the ballot question is not, is this person good or bad?
01:02:34.620But the question is, Polyev or the 51st state? Or it's Carney or the 51st state?
01:02:40.340The 51st state stuff is obviously not real. It's obviously silly.
01:02:43.860It's Trump's administration messing with Canada to get them to take their eye off the ball, which the real issue is about trade.
01:02:50.600And Melanie Jolie every single day is wasting her time talking about the 51st state crap.
01:02:54.300But, at least in the average voter's mind who isn't already a hardcore supporter of one of the main parties, they're making their mind up on who is going to be stronger.
01:03:04.940And so you want it to be a referendum on, is it going to be Polyev leading us forward, or are we going to get annexed?
01:03:10.540Which is, again, silly, but you don't get to choose what the election questions are.
