00:00:36The federal liberals are deeply thin-skinned, especially around times when their public policy is not very popular.
00:00:44They're pushing this new giant omnibus bill to make a bunch of changes to try and speed up major projects,
00:00:50which i thought the major projects office was supposed to do but apparently it isn't it's
00:00:56getting a lot of flack from union groups it's getting a lot of flack from conservatives all
00:01:00sorts of different parts of the economy don't like the changes they're proposing what the liberals
00:01:05should be doing is what i always say the conservatives should run just cut taxes there's
00:01:09no magic little regulation string pulling that you're going to do that's going to make the
00:01:14economy go great guns sure do some regulatory reform but this is like trying to like water0.88
00:01:20the garden while the house is burning down it's so dumb but what i want to focus on is how the0.95
00:01:26liberals on their own social media disprove this narrative that they are stoic public policy wonks0.95
00:01:32they are constantly putting out these videos where they're just attacking the conservatives0.99
00:01:38like you're in government you have a majority are you also going to call stupid snap election like0.97
00:01:44david eby like come on here so the liberals right here say we're relentlessly focused on bringing0.95
00:01:50down costs for canadians like okay this one isn't less jabby but it's just here to kind of set up
00:01:55the whole thing mr speaker this government will continue to work without fail to improve
00:02:03affordability for canadians cutting taxes on income cutting taxes on first-time buyers
00:02:08by the way when they say they're cutting tax on income it the income tax under fifty thousand
00:02:13dollars where you don't even pay anything for the first like 18 000 it's going to go out down at
00:02:17half percent half percent and he's also raised taxes elsewhere hidden taxes that you don't know
00:02:23exist uh when you're like walking around just day to day but you absolutely are affected by them
00:02:28he's just such a fraud the groceries and essential benefit the next check is coming in october 12
00:02:34million canadians getting the benefit and above all providing the essential social services that
00:02:39that that member voted against every single one oh every single one pure poly of so he is jabbing
00:02:44in this one pure poly of is he voted against all the social services uh you wanted to like he even
00:02:52voted to push you down the stairs he he voted to push your grandmother down the stairs here thought
00:02:56of that one have you ever thought of that one he pushed want to push your grandmother downstairs
00:03:00because he doesn't want to tax you a massive amount and then give you some of your money back
00:03:06in these pathetic little rebates or you know sort of like uh like affordability programs it's so
00:03:12lame the entire thing but again this is liberal social media like every single post has just been0.88
00:03:18attacking the poly of conservatives it's almost like they now detect that the trump bump is now
00:03:24starting to wear off again and they're trying to slow down it wearing off child care dental care
00:03:29national school food program twenty thousand dollars on savings for a canadian family
00:03:36it's not savings you're not getting savings if you're being given money now there are some people
00:03:42who might need some government assistance no conservative is just completely against all
00:03:48forms of government assistance we just think that the systems are way too bloated right now
00:03:52and that it would be better just to cut people's taxes and allow them to live their own lives
00:03:57rather than taxes and regulations crushing people and requiring them to rely on the government but
00:04:04like no no one's getting twenty thousand dollars of savings that's if you technically qualify for
00:04:09every single program and you use them to their maximum extent you save twenty thousand dollars
00:04:15for your household each year it's like okay wow so i guess families who are poor and struggling
00:04:20get to save twenty thousand dollars it's like no no they are maybe getting those benefits in order
00:04:28to not die but that's it and if you just cut the taxes on them they could probably all have jobs
00:04:33and be doing really well right now but we can't have that now can we because then they wouldn't
00:04:38have a reason to vote liberal oh but before i get into the next clips i just want to remind you guys
00:04:44if you like the show make sure to leave a like on the video subscribe if you are not yet a subscriber
00:04:49consider leaving a comment with what you think about all this and hit the join button if you
00:04:53want to become a monthly contributor to the channel but let's just jump over to the next
00:04:59liberal post this one is about the investments that the liberals are driving this isn't again
00:05:04a jabby clip this is more of just setting up for later but the liberals are really trying to push
00:05:10to this whole idea that they're they're bringing investment into the country because they had a
00:05:13summit where people sat down and drank coffee and ate donuts and listened to carny talking about
00:05:18investing and it's like just not happening at all like it's just so clearly not resulting in
00:05:24anything. Nobody has committed any money. We did basically a multi-level marketing scheme seminar.
00:05:31People showed up for the free breakfast. They left and you still haven't moved a single unit
00:05:36of that miracle tea that you have stocked up in your garage. That was the investment summit with
00:05:40Mark Carney. Investing Canada now has a clear mission to bring the world's capital here to
00:05:47support Canadian projects, Canadian businesses, Canadian workers. Wow, I can't believe that's
00:05:54really that's the goal we're not going to burn money just for the fun of it just dump it in the
00:05:59hudson's bay and see if it floats like yes of course we want to bring in investment i always
00:06:03hate how they always have him just say these dumb aspirational things and we're all supposed to be0.64
00:06:09impressed by it canadian workers who are turning our ambition into reality because our economic
00:06:16transformation is happening on the construction sites and it's being built by the builders and
00:06:21unions themselves. These are all acts of solidarity. Some very large, some very small,
00:06:30but they're being repeated millions of times proving that together we can give ourselves
00:06:34far more than any one could ever take away. How is it that we've still never really done
00:06:41anything about interprovincial trade barriers on any product that we want to ship to the U.S. that
00:06:46does not currently have a tariff on it, it is easier to move it to the U.S. than it is to move
00:06:51it to another canadian province like he's had what is it 14 separate meetings with all the
00:06:57premiers and that's never happened still and these acts of solidarity are making a statement to the
00:07:02world that this is a new powerful and confident united canada oh my goodness he's he's just the
00:07:12worst he's the worst oh this is act of solidarity is showing the world that we are a strong united
00:07:20canada like what because we can put out press releases i'm pretty sure anyone can put out a
00:07:25press release but this is what we're supposed to celebrate but now let's jump into the liberals in
00:07:30qp posting clips you would assume the opposition would be posting it's kind of the opposition's
00:07:37like it's kind of the opposition's purpose like it's their job to be just you know hacking away0.70
00:07:44at the government and trying to like you know trip them up make them look dumb show that they
00:07:50don't know what they're doing call them out for a bad policy or call them out for some sort of
00:07:54perceived impropriety or peace or some sort of corruption that's opposition this is the
00:08:00government's own social media liberal party here says healthy meals healthy meals in school for
00:08:06400 000 more kids across canada that's the real difference our national food program makes every
00:08:11year and they might say well no we're just we're just posting this clip to promote the national
00:08:15school food program which has been around for years now and you could just cut people's taxes
00:08:19and they could be able to pay for their own kids food but we're in a ridiculous country where we're0.83
00:08:24going to basically uh emasculate fathers and just make mothers seem just like inept by taxing them0.97
00:08:33into the floor until they need their kids food paid for by the government if you just cut their0.99
00:08:39taxes they could do it themselves but we're going to cripple the families and then say hmm you're
00:08:43not a very good parent you can't give your kids food you know we'll give your kids food we're such
00:08:48great people that way but uh that's but again the liberals here are posting this because they want
00:08:53to attack the conservatives not to promote the program programs existed for a while mr speaker
00:08:58let it let the record show that the leader of the opposition the former member for carlton the
00:09:03member for battle over pro foot just said that the 9.8 million more meals
00:09:09served over 130,000 kids in schools in Ontario that's just bureaucracy or how
00:09:14about the 58,000 kids from Alberta that have received school food that's just
00:09:19bureaucracy mr. speaker he claims that he was raised by teachers and he doesn't
00:09:23want to accept that a school food program is helping kids after 22 years
00:09:27in this place you think that he should know he works for Canadians Canadian
00:09:30kids are included in that mr speaker just like maximum smug over here he had to first do the you
00:09:38know the former member of carlton now it's battle river crow what is it mr polyev is that your new
00:09:43riding well well you didn't vote you don't you didn't vote for the national school food program
00:09:49and you don't believe that 130 000 kids being fed is a good thing uh guffaw i can't believe you0.96
00:09:56disgusting i thought you were raised by teachers you you you they're probably going to disown you0.94
00:10:01now it's like yeah in theory we could just take everyone's money from them and the government0.96
00:10:07could provide them their food their school their transportation their medicine everything we just
00:10:14live in full communism and then in theory he could get up and say so you're against us like buying
00:10:20everyone a free car you're against free car program yeah we had to confiscate everyone's
00:10:25money in order to buy everyone that crappy free car but we gave them a free car you're against
00:10:31people being able to move around this country in their own motor vehicle like that's effectively
00:10:36what the liberals are doing with that program but again that wasn't a promotion of anything
00:10:41that was just an attack here's another one where they're not even hiding the ball here
00:10:46because there's no policy to promote in the header it's just flames it's just flames apparently this
00:10:53was super fire or whatever um you know or maybe they think that mckinnon here is super hot maybe
00:10:59he's super hot maybe you like the way he looks the way the you know the fluorescent lights beam
00:11:05off his dome there maybe he cuts a good figure at least he knows how to wear a proper tie other
00:11:11than that other guy was talking about the other day wayne long but let's just get into this one
00:11:14i hope this session of parliament mr speaker we won't see this pattern re-emerge call it the blame
00:11:21canada pattern the hissy fit brigade we are in a trade war we did not provoke this trade war
00:11:29sure okay you didn't put the tariffs in place to begin with i get it when we had dairy tariffs
00:11:35and other things on them for a long time but you could say okay this was not the recent instigating
00:11:39factor i can agree with that absolutely what have the liberals done to win the trade war or to get
00:11:45a deal nothing bueller because it seems like they're crippling the canadian economy through
00:11:53taxes and regulations and then they're like tie zip tying your hands together and say run out to
00:11:57the field of battle and fight the americans can you do that also we're going to ban booze yes we
00:12:02do ship them four times more booze than we ship them and they're now going to counter ban us it's
00:12:06going to destroy us ignore that ignore that you don't want you don't want to fight the americans0.51
00:12:11you want us to lose the trade war like it's so pathetic we're in a trade war right now i'm sorry0.99
00:12:17like can the dog eat your homework this many days in a row until it stops being an excuse for sucking0.99
00:12:22at your job this trade war is illegal it is unjustified okay okay settle down spaz it's not0.99
00:12:30illegal is it stupid yes i'm against donald trump's tariffs on canada and all i think is just bad0.99
00:12:36policy. I think you use tariffs as a punishment against bad foreign actors like the CCP in China,0.99
00:12:42Iran, you know, Equatorial Guinea, Turkmenistan, places like that. I don't like just tariff for
00:12:48tariff's sake. Make your own market more competitive, you know, lower taxes in America,
00:12:53lower corporate taxes in order to be able to be more competitive. That's the better way instead
00:12:57of tariffs. But like, they're illegal is like, no, they're allowed to. Like what? Illegal based
00:13:04on what international law that doesn't mean anything and canada a sovereign country will
00:13:11stand up and take the trade and other measures that are required to protect our people our
00:13:17industries our workers we will never apologize for that and the blame canada brigade should sit
00:13:24right down oh my goodness even even carny looks kind of annoyed and bored by that whole thing
00:13:31because it was just so annoying and performative the blame canada brigade the hissy fit brigade
00:13:36he wasn't responding to anything because notice that they didn't actually put the conservative
00:13:42question at the front of that if you wanted to show that you destroyed her sure put that in the
00:13:48header you know scuss steve mckinnon or whatever his name is he destroys you know insert conservative
00:13:55mp's name right here and then show me like how their question and how you just dunked on him
00:14:00The fact that the dunk was disconnected from what you were dunking on tells me, telegraphs to me, that you probably, that was just nonsense. You just rambled on, like sounded loud, and then just kind of like took a win by default by posting it and implying it was fire or whatever.
00:14:32Well, it's their new signature policy for this session going up like a lead balloon because they're effectively going after the unions with their new policy.
00:14:41Hey, I'm not a big pro-union guy, but it's kind of a big constituency for liberal voters.
00:14:47You know, the Conservatives do really well with especially private sector union workers these days, but it's a constituency the Liberals want to do better with.
00:14:55And if the Conservatives start picking up more of the votes, it helps them a lot in places like southwestern Ontario.
00:15:00But this new Bill C-36 is not going over so well.
00:15:04And I think this is why we're starting to see the Liberals get so feisty on social media against the Conservatives.
00:15:10It absolutely reinforces the right to strike.
00:15:13and alongside that the responsibility of employers and unions but employers to negotiate in good
00:15:22faith and it creates transparency around those negotiating processes in the most strategic parts
00:15:28of our economy. Prime Minister there says the Building Canada Strong Act reinforces the right
00:15:34to strike. Unions though are pushing back raising concerns about what Bill C-39 could mean for
00:15:39workers' rights. There are other people also criticizing this bill, environmental activists,
00:15:44for instance. How is the government managing it? Could it complicate plans to build projects
00:15:48faster? Let's bring in our Sunday Scrum. Catherine Levesque is a parliamentary reporter with the0.92
00:15:53National Post. Stephanie Levitz is a senior reporter with the Globe and Mail's Parliamentary
00:15:57Bureau. And Jason Markosoff is a producer and writer with CBC News in Calgary. Good to see
00:16:01you all this morning. Catherine, let's start with you on this. This is a giant piece of legislation
00:16:07uh for so people know what we would call an omnibus piece of legislation and while i understand the
00:16:13government's intent uh behind it how do you think they are doing in terms of managing uh expectations
00:16:19and some of the questions around it so far if rosemary barton is having herself to basically0.89
00:16:26telegraph that this is looking bad trying to be on the right side of the issue she will bend over0.98
00:16:31backwards to try and be on carney's side but this thing is just like basically rubbing everyone
00:16:36the wrong way. Conservatives, environmentalists, union people, people in Quebec, it's just bad
00:16:43policy. Because again, you're trying to solve a, you're trying to untangle a bag of cats when you
00:16:49could just lower taxes. And again, it may end up probably just doing absolutely nothing while
00:16:56creating a bunch of friction with liberal interest groups. Yeah, I just found them very defensive
00:17:02Every time there was criticism, you know, whether it was on the environmental bit, whether it was on the labor bit.
00:17:07So I think it was quite interesting. But yes, I mean, this is a massive bill.
00:17:11To be fair, we knew this was coming. This was something that they wanted to table in June before the end of the session.
00:17:17There was some pushback. There was more consultation. So we knew this was coming right ahead.
00:17:22But yeah, certainly. I mean, I think there's very reasonable people.
00:17:26A lot of lawyers have gotten through this bill, have kind of fleshed it out.
00:17:29And yeah, I mean, there are some concerns on the environmental bit. I know, you know, First Nations also have a lot of indigenous peoples overall also have a lot of preoccupations about this bill, but also the labor bit.
00:17:41And I think that's maybe one of the bits that might be the most interesting to follow, because certainly we heard from unions this week saying that the red line is that they think this really will impede their right to strike.
00:17:55They said, yes, there's a lot of good things in this bill, things that, you know, that are really welcome.
00:17:59But ultimately, the minister, Minister Haidu, could decide to quash a strike out of the national interest.
00:18:06So what does that mean? I think that's something that the government will have to spell out.
00:18:10And I think they will also be facing a lot of pushback, even from the conservatives on that, which will be interesting to follow.
00:18:17Yeah, it's not. I would say the main pushback from conservatives is going to be that all of this is just theoretical fluff.
00:18:25Bill 36 is a lot about nothing in the sense that, do I want deregulation? Sure. This isn't deregulation. It's like throwing in other tools that allow the liberals to better manage the Jenga tower that is Canadian economic regulations. And in that is allowing the industry or jobs minister, whichever one it was, Patty Heiju, to be able to say, hey, we need this strike to end because it's the national interest for getting, you know, projects done or whatever.
00:18:58But it's just such a weird block to pull out of the tower.
00:19:02It's almost like it's blaming unions for the slowness of the economy.
00:19:06Now, again, I'm a bit of a critic of unions and how much it ends up bloating, you know, increasing costs and slowing down the economy and whatnot just based on how much power they often end up getting and the way that the irresponsible use it.
00:19:19But blaming them for the economic slowness when it's probably just general regulations and taxes is quite the choice for the federal Kearney liberals. Their own major projects office is not getting anything done in time.
00:19:35so he wheels about and smacks the unions instead and also that like all that he needs some tools
00:19:43to do an end run around environmental regulations it's like how do you just get rid of the
00:19:48environmental regulations like c69 and c48 rather than this bloated bill that you can gives you a
00:19:55tool to get around them but it can still be legally challenged but you know it's what are
00:20:00we doing the fact that nobody can really describe what bill 36 does is an indictment of bill c of
00:20:07bill 36 uh steph what what do you think about the labor part of it we talked to the minister
00:20:13minister haidu in the next hour and and she doesn't seem to think that this impedes anybody's
00:20:19right to strike or take job action she actually thinks it does does the opposite i don't know
00:20:25I'm not sure. I'm not sure if that's if that's right. But when Rosemary Barton is laughing at a liberal minister's response to criticism, it's not good.
00:20:38Give me your sense about what how they're presenting it.
00:20:42Yeah, it's interesting, right? I mean, I think we say on this program and others all the time,
00:20:46politics is optics. And a challenge that this government seems to have with itself, and many
00:20:52of the bills that it puts forward that relate, they use the term national interest, is that it
00:20:57seems to always come from a business perspective first. It is never a people-centric perspective
00:21:04first. And if you had flipped the framing of this bill, and you had framed it on the
00:21:08number of provisions that i think unions are on side with some of them right about for example
00:21:13enhancing some of um you know if the contract switches employers right they retain some
00:21:20strength there that's relevant in airports where the government is seeking to privatize so if you
00:21:24had marketed it that way as the government and sort of sought to sort of build more bridges
00:21:30between workers and companies and why this is great for both of them maybe they would have
00:21:35less of a political problem but this guy i just disagree with this like i'm sorry if this this
00:21:40part of the video is dragging a little bit again bill c36 is just a swamp a mire to understand
00:21:47like it it is as rosemary barton described it's just an omnibus bill it's it's going to be hundreds
00:21:52of pages along uh you know slight changes in regulations or new new new tools that they're
00:21:58giving to ministers and whatnot but you can't market something that's this bloated because you
00:22:04you can't say yeah it is like 900 pages but just accept that there's goodies in there that you're
00:22:09going to like it's like yeah but they immediately found things they don't like so now what there was
00:22:15no marketing campaign that wouldn't have gotten them to notice the force you back to work policy
00:22:20in there and by the way again I really don't like the threat of strikes from unions but I'm not a
00:22:25liberal politician who is the one who's trying to pander to many of the groups who like to strike a
00:22:30lot but anyways with all that being said i'm sorry we're not getting to jason marcus off saying his
00:22:36thing but i feel like we don't need to hear from another cbc guy here uh but with all that said
