Summary

Purepoly of the Conservatives says the Supreme Court of Canada should use the notwithstanding clause to keep criminals behind bars, even if the courts don't like it. Mark Carney's response to the matter is hilarious, and Purepoly's is even funnier.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here.
00:00:02.780 So we have crime becoming a big wedge issue in the 2025 federal election in Canada,
00:00:09.060 in part because the Liberals don't take it seriously.
00:00:13.140 Pure poly of the Conservatives saying something sensible on crime
00:00:16.400 has somehow turned into something that the Liberals think is very controversial,
00:00:21.400 because they may want criminals locked up despite what the courts say.
00:00:26.160 I am 100% fine with pure poly of the Conservatives using the notwithstanding clause
00:00:32.340 in order to enforce mandatory minimums.
00:00:35.160 There is nothing against the Charter with mandatory minimums,
00:00:38.740 so we should be using the notwithstanding clause in order to enforce them if the courts get in the way.
00:00:44.980 I want to cut over to a clip of poly of talking about this in just a second.
00:00:48.660 I want to then jump over to what Mark Carney's response to all this is,
00:00:52.460 and then jump back over to pure poly of.
00:00:54.420 But before I get into it, guys, make sure to like this video,
00:00:57.600 subscribe to the channel if you're not yet a subscriber,
00:00:59.960 and leave a comment on the topic of the day.
00:01:02.780 What do you think about the use of the notwithstanding clause?
00:01:05.320 Where is it appropriate? Where do you think it's not appropriate?
00:01:08.260 But now, without further ado, here is pure poly of answering a journalist's question
00:01:12.480 about the use of the notwithstanding clause in reference to crime.
00:01:16.300 Merci, on passe à la prochaine question.
00:01:17.640 The question was, will you use it for other things?
00:01:23.780 And the answer is, we will only use Section 33 to fight crime.
00:01:30.460 We will only use it to end the liberal crime wave,
00:01:33.860 which they have unleashed with catch-and-release, hug-a-thug laws.
00:01:37.760 We will reverse all of those laws, and we will bring in the biggest crime crackdown
00:01:43.580 in Canadian history to protect the constitutional charter rights of Canadians
00:01:50.120 to life, liberty, and security of the person.
00:01:54.940 Merci. On passe à la dernière question.
00:01:56.420 I should just say one last thing, because after the last liberal decade
00:02:01.420 of skyrocketing crime and costs of living, we cannot afford a fourth term.
00:02:09.300 We need a change, a change with a new conservative government
00:02:14.220 so you can have food that you afford, homes you can afford,
00:02:18.000 streets that you're safe on, and a paycheck that grows faster than your cost of living.
00:02:21.920 Thank you.
00:02:22.760 Hi, Mr. Pauly. I'm Tariq, 3 Global News.
00:02:24.880 Is there an example of when a mass murderer has been set free?
00:02:29.640 Does the parole board not usually rule against that?
00:02:33.400 Well, the problem is that the ruling just happened in 2022.
00:02:41.500 So the clock started ticking on these cases in that year.
00:02:47.820 So what we will see is 25 years forward, these offenders will be eligible for parole.
00:02:53.820 And when you kill six people, you should never be eligible for parole.
00:03:01.960 You should never be able to force the families of the victims to have to come and testify at a parole hearing
00:03:07.740 so that they relive the hell that you've exacted on them.
00:03:12.820 I like how many questions he's getting from the media on this specific topic,
00:03:17.340 as if what he is saying is somehow like, you know, a little beyond the pale.
00:03:21.520 I can't believe he would say something like this.
00:03:23.720 I need to bring up the funniest reaction to it before I cut over to Mark Carney.
00:03:27.720 Rachel Gilmore reacted to this saying, whoa, Paulyov's announcement today,
00:03:33.180 he would invoke the notwithstanding clause to overturn a Supreme Court ruling and make sure multiple murderers die in prison.
00:03:40.180 This would make him the first prime minister to override the charter using the notwithstanding clause.
00:03:44.920 And over time, it's been made very clear that Rachel Gilmore was not saying this because it was just big news or something like that.
00:03:52.840 She was saying this because she openly opposes the use of the notwithstanding clause to keep murderers locked up,
00:03:59.700 as if that is a big tragedy that murderers will not be able to get out in their lifetimes.
00:04:05.020 Even then, I support the use of the notwithstanding clause in order to overturn all these stupid bail rulings from judges,
00:04:13.820 letting multiple-time violent offenders just out of jail before their trial,
00:04:18.220 even though they've repeatedly shown that they cannot handle it.
00:04:21.880 Here is the purpose of jail and the criminal justice system.
00:04:25.380 It is to protect the public.
00:04:27.100 If you are dangerous, if you are incapable of staying out of trouble pre-trial,
00:04:32.280 you should not get out pre-trial.
00:04:33.800 But we have this ridiculous system where if the prosecution wants to keep dangerous criminals
00:04:40.320 or repeat offenders in prison or jail before trial,
00:04:46.360 they need to literally bend over backwards to make an argument in front of a judge
00:04:51.040 in which if it's a very liberal judge, they'll just dismiss it and say that the guy who stabbed somebody
00:04:56.020 can go back out in the streets and we'll just hope that he actually shows up for his trial.
00:04:59.560 It's ridiculous, which means that prosecutors don't even bother at this point because it's such a waste
00:05:06.080 of time. Now I want to jump over to Mark Carney's reaction is absolutely insane that he thinks that this is
00:05:14.600 somehow a good angle of attack on Polyev that, oh my goodness, Polyev is going to use the notwithstanding
00:05:19.860 clause. Guys, this is like dictatorship.
00:05:22.060 Chair Polyev announced today he would use the notwithstanding clause to push through his tough-on-crime
00:05:28.580 agenda. Is there any case you'd invoke the clause to override the Charter?
00:05:31.780 I think this is a very dangerous step. We have a Charter of Rights and Fundamental Freedoms in this country
00:05:41.760 and it's the responsibility, in my view, of the Prime Minister, of the Government of Canada to defend
00:05:49.620 that Charter, those fundamental rights and responsibilities and liberties that Canadians enjoy.
00:05:55.920 The guy supported the use of the Emergencies Act to suspend Canadians' charter rights. What is he talking about?
00:06:05.220 This is a very dangerous step. Locking up criminals, apparently actual criminals, is the dangerous step here.
00:06:11.060 Not lockdowns, not mandates, not the Emergency Act use and freezing bank accounts.
00:06:16.000 It's when we're making sure that Paul Bernardo doesn't get to come up in front of bail hearings or parole hearings anymore.
00:06:23.300 That's when it becomes dangerous.
00:06:24.520 The politicizing certain issues with respect to fundamental rights is a slippery slope that leads to further politicization.
00:06:40.200 And I understand if I was correctly briefed, it won't surprise you I didn't watch Mr. Polyev's press conference,
00:06:50.120 but if I was correctly briefed, that it relates to issues of heinous crimes and murderers.
00:06:58.020 You know...
00:06:59.120 So he even knows that we're talking about heinous crimes and murderers not being allowed parole,
00:07:06.540 and he is still saying it's a dangerous, it's a dangerous precedent that Polyev is setting.
00:07:12.380 So he's fully aware of what he's speaking on, and he still thinks this is dangerous.
00:07:17.060 I think that the notwithstanding clause should be even used more liberally than what Polyev is talking about.
00:07:22.300 I think any person who commits a violent offense, unless disputed, if it's on camera, they should not be let out of jail pre-trial.
00:07:30.800 Especially if it's a public offense against a stranger.
00:07:33.520 Because if someone's attacking a random stranger, do you think that that person's not going to attack somebody else if you let them out before trial?
00:07:40.320 Especially because they know they're probably going to get locked up.
00:07:42.540 They might just do whatever the heck they want at that point.
00:07:44.600 Being tough on crime, and being tough starts with being smart on crime.
00:07:50.180 And it includes being tough on guns and gun violence.
00:07:54.900 And I know that, with regret, that Mr. Polyev has voted against every single gun control measure
00:08:03.260 during his very long career as a career politician and member of the House of Commons.
00:08:08.940 I think it's over 200 times.
00:08:10.920 Because, yes, because it is.
00:08:12.940 It is Farmer Brown's shotgun that is the problem.
00:08:16.640 Not the fact that because the liberals have not secured the border over 10 years,
00:08:20.980 and in fact they actually keep passing laws to lower offenses for carrying actual illegally obtained guns,
00:08:27.160 that we have gun violence everywhere.
00:08:29.060 If we were locking people up, if we were not appointing liberal judges all over the place
00:08:34.180 who don't like locking up criminals, we wouldn't have this problem.
00:08:37.040 But the liberals would rather disarm people who have never committed an offense in their lives,
00:08:42.420 never misused firearms in the past.
00:08:47.020 They are the ones who are now going to have to be punished
00:08:50.120 because a bunch of Somali gang members are shooting each other up the streets of Toronto.
00:08:55.480 Make it make sense.
00:08:56.840 They know it doesn't make sense.
00:08:58.160 This is just a stupid wedge issue.
00:09:00.160 And I hope that Polly at the debates absolutely smacks them for this,
00:09:04.380 that they have been letting gangsters run around, shooting each other without cracking down on them,
00:09:08.940 and in fact making it easier for those people to operate while going after people
00:09:12.740 who are literally one-third as likely to commit a violent offense as the average person in Canada.
00:09:17.760 Gun owners because you lose your gun license if you commit a violent crime,
00:09:21.640 or I think even certain other, like if you shoplift, you would lose your gun, I believe.
00:09:25.960 I think that would be a criminal offense worthy of getting your gun license pulled.
00:09:31.100 They don't commit criminal offenses.
00:09:32.800 This would be really stupid to when you lose so many privileges by doing it.
00:09:37.920 But yeah, now I want to jump back over to Pierre Polyev,
00:09:41.400 because even though these are the same press conferences,
00:09:43.880 they can have been kind of dueling back and forth,
00:09:45.920 knowing each other's talking points on these issues,
00:09:47.980 and he probably have responded to the sort of perspective on crime that Mark Carney has.
00:09:52.900 And Mark Carney has said he will not change any of the catch-and-release liberal laws.
00:09:58.200 Like so many elites who don't have to feel the effects of their policies, he agrees with them.
00:10:04.240 He lives in a protected neighborhood.
00:10:06.580 He is surrounded by security.
00:10:09.020 He spent most of his adult life not even living in Canada.
00:10:11.940 He has no idea what it's like to feel endangered in his community.
00:10:15.580 With Mark Carney, you will get four more years of the same out-of-touch liberal catch-and-release laws
00:10:22.360 that have caused the problem in the first place.
00:10:24.820 So the question is, do I respect Supreme Court decisions?
00:10:29.020 The answer is yes.
00:10:31.040 And I also respect the Charter of Rights and Freedoms,
00:10:34.140 which guarantees life, liberty, and the security of the person to every single Canadian.
00:10:41.080 That right has been trampled on by the Liberals' catch-and-release laws
00:10:48.000 that have unleashed crime and chaos in our communities.
00:10:52.360 And I will use Section 33 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms
00:10:58.520 to put an end to the liberal crime and drug wave
00:11:03.800 and to protect law-abiding Canadians against the dangers
00:11:09.920 that are spreading everywhere in our streets.
00:11:12.860 I would be suggesting to Polyev that in a debate, this is a great...
00:11:17.520 The thing is that it might not be true to most people,
00:11:24.560 but people living in those sort of mixed suburban-urban ridings
00:11:29.100 that the Conservatives need to be able to win this election,
00:11:32.180 hitting on crime heavily will move a lot of voters.
00:11:35.780 And I think going after Carney as an out-of-touch liberal elite
00:11:38.940 who doesn't actually have to suffer with the consequences
00:11:41.920 of his own bad policies and actions is a great thing to do.
00:11:45.200 That this man doesn't matter if he crashes the economy, he will be fine.
00:11:49.060 Whereas Polyev actually has grown up and still lives in a world
00:11:53.340 where if the economy goes south, it could actually affect his own standard of living.
00:11:58.380 You know, he probably has had a good amount of savings over time,
00:12:01.480 having been an elected official for quite a length of time.
00:12:05.100 But there's a difference between Polyev maybe having millions of dollars
00:12:09.040 and Carney having tens of millions of dollars, if not like $100 million.
00:12:13.740 That the man should be slapped at for wanting to keep around the Trudeau-era policies
00:12:19.060 that have made people's lives worse because it doesn't really seem to be a big deal to him
00:12:23.520 because it's never affected him.
00:12:25.120 It's not that things have to affect you personally for you to take it seriously,
00:12:28.680 but it just demonstrates how out-of-touch a person Carney is.
00:12:32.080 If it doesn't affect him personally, it seems like he doesn't take it seriously.
00:12:35.860 So anyways, that's it for this video, guys.
00:12:38.680 I do hope that the Conservatives really hone in on this.
00:12:42.000 In fact, I could have brought up the stats, but I know you guys don't want me
00:12:45.140 to be looking at small numbers on charts.
00:12:48.300 Crime in Canada since 2015 has literally gone up.
00:12:51.860 Violent crime has gone up 30% across the country.
00:12:54.580 In provinces like BC, it's gone up 50% in part because of the combination of terrible policies
00:12:59.540 from the federal liberals and the BC NDP.
00:13:02.100 This is such a big issue.
00:13:03.660 In Ontario, I think crime's up.
00:13:05.420 Violent crime's up like 40%.
00:13:06.980 Shoplifting's up 30%.
00:13:08.720 This is a major, major sore point for the liberals, and they are literally unwilling
00:13:13.700 to even change a thing.
00:13:15.020 They're wanting to hire more cops, crack down more on guns, but it's literally taking the
00:13:19.240 same policies they already had, microwaving them, and then just doing them more.
00:13:23.040 That is literally it.
00:13:24.480 So that should be it for me today, guys.
00:13:26.740 Saying that for the second time because I end up trailing off.
00:13:29.040 Make sure to like the video, subscribe to the channel, leave a comment, do all that great
00:13:33.560 stuff, and I'll see you guys in another video.
00:13:36.360 I'm going to probably go door knocking for Barbara Ball shortly here, just making sure
00:13:40.420 that I have content to put out throughout the day while I'm talking to liberals and conservatives
00:13:45.020 at the doors.
