00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.
00:00:06.420 So we now have it confirmed that Nate Erskine-Smith will be resigning his seat in Parliament this coming June,
00:00:14.560 and I'm actually pretty shocked by this, because as I've been following the Scarborough Southwest Ontario Liberal Party nomination scandal,
00:00:24.280 I had been assuming that since he got screwed out of the nomination because both the OLP rigged it
00:00:30.800 and his opponent was cheating, that he was going to say, well, now I'm going to stay in my federal
00:00:35.520 seat because I thought I was going into provincial politics, but I was blocked, so I'm going to stay
00:00:40.660 being the MP for Beaches East York. I'm going to give a big compliment to Nate Erskine-Smith.
00:00:47.100 The guy is a man of his word. I agree with him on no policies. At the same time, at least
00:00:53.780 he actually is doing what he said he was going to do.
00:00:57.760 He said that he was leaving federal politics and he was going to go into provincial.
00:01:02.600 And although even though he was screwed in the Scarborough Southwest nomination
00:01:07.200 through rigging and cheating, he's still going to be giving up his federal seat.
00:01:12.520 Check out this clip from CTV News where he was on with Vashie Capellos.
00:01:17.220 You said every vote counts. Your party now has a majority.
00:01:20.440 Are you going to resign your seat?
00:01:22.480 Yes. Yes. I said what I said, and I'm going to stand by what I said.
00:01:26.840 I'm going to do what I said I was going to do.
00:01:29.560 I've talked to the prime minister's office.
00:01:31.720 I've been in fairly regular touch.
00:01:33.400 They asked me to stay on, so I stayed on.
00:01:35.380 I mean, you can say I'm not a team player, but I put myself through a lot of,
00:01:38.940 in some cases, quite a lot of criticism in order to make sure we supported
00:01:42.300 a really tough parliamentary minority.
00:01:45.140 When he talked about staying on, he's talking about back in 2025,
00:01:49.080 Mark Carney convinced him to stay on with the Liberals and run in the 2025 election with them.
00:01:55.860 He did that. And then since the Liberals now have a majority government and no longer a minority,
00:02:01.680 he feels comfortable to resign his office and go do other things.
00:02:05.420 We're in an easier space now. And the last conversation I had with the Prime Minister's
00:02:09.080 office was, you know, I'll give a farewell speech in June and I'll resign over the summer and
00:02:14.460 they'll have enough time in an orderly way, hopefully have a nomination. And I know their
00:02:18.520 nomination will be well run. Now, so I have to give a compliment to a liberal. He actually is
00:02:25.900 doing what he said he was going to do. What a concept. But not only do I want to talk about
00:02:32.860 the implications of Nate Erskine-Smith resigning from office alongside Jonathan Wilkinson, who's
00:02:38.880 also giving up his North Vancouver Capilano seat, I then want to dive into more of the details
00:02:44.680 of the Scarborough Southwest Ontario Liberal Party nomination, because this thing is turning 0.56
00:02:50.260 into a complete garbage fire for the Ontario Liberal Party. The funny thing is, I have really
00:02:57.280 no dog in the fight when it comes to Ontario provincial politics. I care about every province
00:03:02.900 in Canada, and I try and follow their politics as closely as time allows me to. Sorry, Maritimes,
00:03:09.500 I'm probably not following PEI politics that closely.
00:03:12.780 I just saw Jessica Atwin lost a mayoral race in Fredericton, which is funny, but I don't
00:03:18.640 have the time for it.
00:03:20.060 But in Ontario, I don't like any of the parties. 1.00
00:03:23.080 Doug Ford's PCs suck. 1.00
00:03:24.540 The Liberals suck. 1.00
00:03:25.520 The NDP sucks. 1.00
00:03:26.660 The Greens suck. 1.00
00:03:27.680 I like the new blue party. 1.00
00:03:29.120 I recognize they probably can't win a seat.
00:03:31.080 Some people are like, but why?
00:03:32.200 They can't win.
00:03:33.040 I understand.
00:03:34.180 No, I'm never marketing them as if they're going to take government.
00:03:36.760 I'm marketing them as a good place to park your vote because the PCs just suck these days, as I've been saying about all the parties.
00:03:43.620 And so in this video, again, we're going to start off with the implications of Erskine Smith and Jonathan Wilkinson leaving.
00:03:51.300 Then I want to get into some of the details that Erskine Smith himself released about the nomination.
00:03:57.040 And I even want to play a clip of him on the CBC, where the CBC justifies voter fraud, tries to excuse voter fraud, because of course they are.
00:04:07.820 If anything, I'm very happy about this situation, not because I like voter fraud. I cover it because I abhor voter fraud.
00:04:14.520 I like how much this has exposed people like David Cochran on the CBC.
00:04:19.060 He is such a water carrier for establishment liberal politics that he is willing to justify the screwing over of a sitting liberal MP trying to run for an MPP nomination in Ontario.
00:04:33.220 It's quite incredible.
00:04:34.080 But before I go any further, I just want to remind you guys, if you live in the province of Saskatchewan, there is a nomination going on on the border of Manitoba in the Yorkton-Melville riding.
00:04:47.940 Kathy Wagenthal is not running for re-election this next time, so there is a nomination going on.
00:04:53.360 If you live in this area, it's on the Elections Canada website if you want to go check it out.
00:04:59.900 I will be linking the Conservative Party membership portal in the description below and pinned at the top of the comments.
00:05:06.600 If you live in that area or you know someone who lives in the area and you can encourage them to become a member,
00:05:11.640 get that membership and vote for albert duff he's a very good across the board conservative
00:05:17.420 fiscal conservative freedom conservative social conservative and he would make a very good
00:05:22.680 replacement for kathy wangenthal it's a safe conservative riding which means that it matters
00:05:28.400 more than ever to actually show up and vote in the nomination race because it is the real basically
00:05:34.580 it's the real election the the membership portal for that riding closes on friday in terms of if
00:05:40.900 you buy a membership like past the time on Friday that you can that you're supposed to buy one you
00:05:46.400 cannot vote in the nomination so make sure to get that early again I will be linking all the
00:05:51.660 information below if you want to vote in that nomination anyways so let's get in to just the
00:06:00.260 current state of parliament right now Mark Carney's liberals have 172 seats do I bring up the
00:06:10.100 whiteboard for this or not. I think I've, I think I've got a little bit tired of the whiteboards
00:06:13.820 from the last three videos, but right now, Mark Carney's liberals have 172 seats. Now you need,
00:06:20.400 I believe exactly, or no, he has 174 seats. You need 172 for a bare majority. So the problem for
00:06:29.360 Mark Carney is, although he's not falling out of his majority with the, with Jonathan Wilkinson
00:06:35.280 and Nate Erskine-Smith leaving, the problem is for a few months it's going to be very difficult
00:06:40.960 for him to pass stuff. Because if you don't know, the Liberal government is going to be the one that
00:06:46.640 has to put up the Speaker. Which means although the Speaker can technically tie-break, the problem
00:06:52.700 is the Speaker being the tie-breaking vote means that votes themselves become extremely onerous.
00:06:58.640 Mark Carney has no barrier or no buffer for people not showing up. Every single Liberal MP
00:07:05.620 must be there to vote things through. And if you don't know, there is something on Parliament Hill
00:07:11.620 called a pairing agreement. If a Liberal MP, let's just say, needs a knee surgery or something like
00:07:17.580 that, or someone is at home, sick as a dog, cannot participate in the House of Commons,
00:07:24.240 What you'll usually have happen is an MP from another party, usually the ones that, you know, the biggest parties will usually do most of the pairing, if a liberal is not on Parliament Hill, then a conservative will agree that even if they're on Parliament Hill, they won't vote to kind of keep the peace, keep the general balance of Parliament.
00:07:43.940 But the conservatives are probably unlikely to actually follow those rules anymore. They are going to be at Parliament Hill all the time, and they're not going to let the liberals have any room for error.
00:07:55.440 And so right now, Carney is in a situation where everything is going to grind to a halt, and he's going to have an extremely difficult time actually getting anything through again.
00:08:04.040 And since he has to put up the speaker for all the votes, the conservatives could say, hey, you no longer really have a workable majority anymore. We want to vote to restore all the committees to the way they used to be, not with these extra liberals on all of them packed in so the liberals can do things like prevent the finance minister from having to testify in front of the ethics committee or for all of the other committees from being able to go in camera so that people don't actually get to see what's going on.
00:08:32.820 and no transcript is actually made public. So right now, it gives the Conservatives,
00:08:38.500 the Bloc Québécois, the NDP, and even Elizabeth May as the Lone Green, a lot of power to start
00:08:43.960 pushing back on the Liberals. The only, I guess, silver lining is that maybe Bola Rees, the NDP
00:08:51.080 MP, who's going to go and run in the Quebec provincial election, maybe he'll be a little
00:08:55.640 bit too distracted. So Carney still technically has a majority, but Mark Carney is now in a much
00:09:01.760 more uncomfortable position than he was just a couple weeks ago. As Erskine Smith even said,
00:09:07.300 and he said in other interviews, Mark Carney didn't want him to go. Those two people hate each
00:09:13.000 other more than the bubonic plague hates antibiotics. But Mark Carney doesn't exactly
00:09:19.340 want him to leave because, again, it puts him in these very awkward positions. Maybe he wouldn't
00:09:23.760 be leaving if he didn't screw him over in terms of being the housing minister. Nate Erskine Smith
00:09:29.440 only ran in 2025 under the promise that Carney was going to let him be housing minister. He only
00:09:35.320 let him be housing minister for about two months and then replaced him with Gregor Robertson,
00:09:39.360 which I've heard background chatter has to do with potentially Marco Mendicino pulling strings to
00:09:45.880 make sure that he got kicked out because he doesn't like him for some petty personal reasons, but
00:09:49.980 I'm not going to get into that any further. That's the current state of parliament. Now we got to get
00:09:55.500 into some of these other media interviews with Erskine Smith and sort of the details coming out
00:10:03.140 of the Scarborough Southwest riding. Because again, this is going to have a big impact on
00:10:09.820 Ontario provincial politics. I don't care all that much about Ontario provincial politics at
00:10:14.440 the moment because everything's trash, but this still says something about our current political
00:10:19.040 system in Canada that these sort of things are allowed to happen in internal party races.
00:10:23.760 oftentimes the race that matters far more than the general election because the nominations
00:10:28.880 determine who is going to be the representative for each party and in ridings like scarborough
00:10:34.760 southwest or you know where he's from in the federal riding beaches east york or in a safe
00:10:40.000 conservative riding whoever wins the nomination yorkton melville like i just brought up whoever
00:10:45.240 wins the nomination is effectively going to be the mp but here is nate erskine smith on the cbc
00:10:51.840 with david cochran uh this is just a 15 second clip of just nes talking for a second in a second
00:10:59.120 we're going to get to a clip with david cochran in it the way he conducts himself in this interview
00:11:05.040 with nate erskine smith who i will sometimes refer to as nes is despicable it's deplorable
00:11:12.640 david cochran effectively tries to justify voter fraud in these videos uh check it out ask yourself
00:11:20.240 why would dozens and dozens and dozens of people who are temporary residents showing up not
00:11:25.500 understanding the process, when they're asked for their address, they're not certain about what
00:11:29.100 their address is, and then they're taking pictures of their ballot. Ask yourself, why would they be
00:11:33.920 doing that? Now, you heard that right. He didn't say permanent residents. You're allowed to vote
00:11:40.040 in most party nominations if you are a permanent resident. Should we change that rule and make it 0.99
00:11:45.120 only about citizens? Yes, probably. But in Ontario provincial politics, if you're in a liberal,
00:11:51.480 if you're into Ontario provincial liberal politics, you can vote pretty much as long as
00:11:56.840 you're alive. If you're alive and have an Ontario Liberal Party membership, you're allowed to vote
00:12:02.080 pretty much. So yes, temporary residents are voting. And in the documentation that Erskine
00:12:08.980 Smith provides in his own blog post, they were saying that refugees were voting. Fraudulent
00:12:16.280 refugees were voting. People who are visitors, tourists, effectively, are voting in this 1.00
00:12:23.420 nomination. And yet the Ontario Liberal Party and their interim leader, John Fraser, are trying to
00:12:29.140 move heaven and earth to stand by the results that ended up putting this a fizz guy in as the
00:12:35.040 liberal nominee who is going around campaigning with sex offenders, posts weird stuff on his own
00:12:40.880 social media all the time, and needed to win a nomination effectively with people who couldn't
00:12:45.600 speak the English language, were not from the riding, and are not even permanent residents of
00:12:51.160 Canada. But now, let's get into this next clip with David Cochran trying to, again, throw darts
00:12:58.960 at Nate Erskine-Smith, the case he's making here. Now, you could say he's just trying to be an
00:13:04.000 interviewer. He's just trying to ask the tough questions, be devil's advocate. There's devil's
00:13:09.060 advocate, and then there is just blatantly kind of naysaying something that's obviously true.
00:13:15.120 He's saying that this looks like fraud, and David keeps trying to squirm out of it because he's
00:13:19.320 trying to justify the corruption of liberal insider politics. When you say racist suspicions,
00:13:26.500 I mean, there's often just incompetence and human error that leads to irregularities and problems.
00:13:32.040 You and I have both seen that in politics over the years.
00:13:34.460 And then there's flat-out corruption and manipulation of a process.
00:13:37.900 I mean, what sort of suspicion do you have is happening here?
00:13:40.120 So here's a question.
00:13:41.160 Right.
00:13:41.460 So what explains someone on a video call in a ballot box getting instructions of how to vote?
00:13:50.060 I do not have an explanation.
00:13:52.360 Is that incompetence or is that something more serious than that?
00:13:56.200 Well, I would say, look, I don't know.
00:13:59.440 Look, I don't know.
00:14:00.500 And David immediately folds because he's not asking questions, quote unquote, to try and get at the truth.
00:14:07.560 He's trying to throw out misnomer explanations so that maybe people who are friendly to the establishment liberal circles can say, well, maybe there's a little incompetence.
00:14:19.440 You can't control incompetence.
00:14:21.140 Oh, there's always going to be some errors. 1.00
00:14:22.880 Oh, shut up, David. 0.99
00:14:24.520 No, it's voter fraud. 1.00
00:14:26.620 It's rigging.
00:14:28.000 It's, in fact, when we go into some of the details of what Nate Erskine-Smith's teams put out, it's probably bribery.
00:14:34.440 It's people, why are you taking photos of your ballots to show people who you mark down?
00:14:40.220 Isn't it enough that a physics team wanted you to go and vote, and you went and they checked your name off the sheet you voted?
00:14:47.780 They don't know exactly who you voted for, but you seem friendly to them to make your ballot.
00:14:51.820 Why do you need to take a photo of your ballot?
00:14:53.780 it's almost like you have to prove that you did something so you can get something that's classical 0.85
00:15:00.620 voter fraud that's classical vote buying but let's get back to this ridiculous clip of again 0.93
00:15:06.540 david cochran pretending to be dumb when all this stuff is being explained to him well i i would say 0.94
00:15:12.800 look i don't know but i i would say it's definitely incompetent on the people running it to allow 0.95
00:15:17.820 a video conference in the ballot box like no that's not incompetence how does he can't just
00:15:23.880 say well that's definitely incompetence no that's definitely fraud that's definitely allowing fraud
00:15:31.600 you can't say oh that's just incompetence oh how would they know the scrutineers knew enough to
00:15:36.940 take photos of it going on because they knew that this was not kosher and we're going to get into
00:15:41.540 the photos later. But David, throwing out every excuse, every justification for why voter fraud
00:15:48.180 doesn't matter. Oh, it's just noise. It's no big deal. Maybe people just weren't sure what the
00:15:54.700 rules were. Why do you need to video conference somebody while you're voting? Why do you need to
00:15:59.420 ask questions to somebody on video and give them a call while you have pencil in hand, pen in hand,
00:16:05.440 trying to figure out who to vote for? Why do you need to do that? In any federal election,
00:16:09.420 provincial general election, you would be kicked out of the voting booth and probably not allowed
00:16:13.400 to vote if you were doing that. At the very least, they would come over and quickly tell you to stop
00:16:17.520 or you would be kicked out. The only people allowed to get assistance voting are people 0.62
00:16:23.020 with disabilities. That's the only people, someone who is very old and frail and they need someone's 1.00
00:16:28.840 help and they're saying, I allow this person to come and help me. And it's like a relative.
00:16:32.620 You don't just get to just have a random staff member of Hafiz come in and just point at the
00:16:38.900 things you're supposed to mark down my goodness but again nothing's above nothing's underhanded
00:16:44.920 in the eyes of the cbc know what i mean like if i tried to do that i've never voted in a party
00:16:49.980 nomination but i can't imagine the elections canada people would let me get away with that
00:16:53.180 on federal voting well so i'm glad you say this david because in in the appeal materials i did
00:16:57.760 want to note i wanted to be constructive and i wanted to say look we need a full investigation
00:17:02.680 i want to make sure it's not about me at all and that's about the process and improving and
00:17:06.460 protecting the integrity of the process. And two areas where I think we absolutely need to
00:17:11.120 protect the integrity of our process. One comes out of the Hogue Commission, where they recommended
00:17:15.620 in the federal government to adopt this change to say that voting participation should be limited
00:17:20.580 to citizens and to permanent residents. The Ontario Liberal Party has not changed the rules
00:17:26.340 in, I think, an appropriate way. And that needs to change, especially after we just saw hundreds
00:17:30.000 of temporary residents show up at the polls on Saturday. And the second piece here, and you've
00:17:35.560 identify this, is the party clearly was incapable of running an election where 1,500 people voted
00:17:43.280 in a very short window of time on a Saturday afternoon. And Elections Ontario should be
00:17:48.360 responsible for this, because what we saw on Saturday was that a core tenet of our democracy,
00:17:53.940 which is ballot secrecy, was completely undermined. And Elections Ontario should be at the forefront
00:17:59.740 of protecting that now i just know i don't i now just want to jump into the last clip here
00:18:05.100 with david cochran and then we'll go into a little bit of the blog post that uh nes had made on this
00:18:11.020 race but we will eventually get the photos too it's wild that this had gone on but it's this is
00:18:21.400 the this next clip is again another really annoying one because the establishment type
00:18:27.700 chilling i've seen on social media around all of this has been maddening and david cochran's like
00:18:33.400 the avatar of all of that ever there's nothing that isn't nothing's untoward because we said oh
00:18:39.320 you just you just don't know how politics works oh you're just taking it too personally oh well
00:18:43.700 how do you know that that's corruption it's like god you're the media you're like a political
00:18:49.300 observer online and you don't care why is it that the media is always trying to naysay people with
00:18:54.860 a story rather than looking into it themselves. Check out this clip. You know, you look at this
00:18:59.320 appeal and you look at the irregularities that you're highlighting here and you look at your
00:19:02.400 past comments that the party establishment was working to prevent you from getting the nomination.
00:19:07.180 I mean, what makes you say that? Why does it have that the party establishment wanted to stop you
00:19:10.840 from winning in Scarborough Southwest? I mean, they've said so themselves. Look, I don't want
00:19:17.620 to get too in the weeds on this because like I want to be squarely focused on the process here
00:19:22.120 and how we improve the process and how we make sure something like this never happens again.
00:19:25.960 But look, I mean, Tom Allison, who's a longtime old guard establishment for the Ontario Liberal
00:19:30.880 Party, he was chief scrutineer for Mr. Hafiz. And when asked about why he was there, he said,
00:19:36.100 I'm here to save the party, ostensibly to save the party from me, I suppose. You had Ted Loico,
00:19:40.640 who was campaign manager for Mr. Hafiz. Ted Loico, who previously was running a nomination
00:19:47.320 campaign for Han Dong. Han Dong, if you don't know, is a massive CCP shill. And in the nomination
00:19:54.560 that he ran, the guy he mentioned who was Han Dong's campaign manager in 2019 helped bus in
00:20:01.220 effectively non-citizen Chinese voters to stuff ballots for Han Dong. And that, again, CBC,
00:20:10.260 where's the investigation? Now they are helping APTN, basically the indigenous version of the CBC,
00:20:16.280 put on these expose documentaries where they try and entrap people like Lindsay Shepard,
00:20:22.200 Francis Whittowson. They even tried to entrap Dallas Brody into these absurd parody interviews
00:20:27.660 where they dump a bunch of children's shoes in front of you. CBC is putting hundreds of thousands,
00:20:32.080 if not millions of dollars into crap, garbage activist content like that. That's going to be 0.99
00:20:37.880 another video for another day. But they're not going to look into what is a very clear instance
00:20:45.580 of voter fraud and election rigging and potential bribery no curiosity in fact all the questions
00:20:52.720 all the david cochran puts on his incredulous face and acts incredulous the entire time well
00:20:58.940 why do they want to do that to you nate oh well is that just incompetence is that really is that
00:21:03.580 really wrong can we say that's wrong it's like well i don't know about that well i wouldn't know
00:21:07.680 what that would mean if people are on facetime calls asking who to vote for and taking photos
00:21:12.880 of their ballots after who who knows what that is but no no but the cbc is trying to entrap
00:21:18.460 francis widowson and lindsey shepard into these absurd fake interviews to try and humiliate them
00:21:24.320 that's what they do have time to put money into and investigate and as a long-standing ties to
00:21:29.820 mr allison and to the party you had alexis levine there you had jack siegel there you run down i
00:21:34.260 mean run down the list there were all sorts of people who were there supporting opponents and
00:21:37.920 making sure that we were unsuccessful. That's okay, by the way. Like, I don't take issue with
00:21:42.560 a number of folks in the party who don't want to see me succeed. That's okay. That's democracy.
00:21:47.500 It's not democracy to see the number of irregularities, to see the party turn a blind
00:21:54.400 eye, I think, unfortunately, to so many of these irregularities. I said to my wife, like, should we
00:21:58.060 do this? Or should I do this? And she said, I don't want you to, from the perspective of,
00:22:02.360 I want you at home more. I don't want you stressed about these things. It's not good.
00:22:06.200 you know the like what what's the outcome here but on the flip side we can't let this happen in
00:22:11.460 Canada anyway so there's that again just terrible performance there by David Cochran but now I want
00:22:18.860 to go into the blog post that Nate Erskine Smith made which I will be linking below as well if you
00:22:24.580 want to check it out he actually also put his own video out where he had his own I think chief
00:22:29.700 scrutineer do a rundown of what he had seen and it's quite remarkable but most of those details
00:22:35.300 are in this blog post as well. Here is a photo of the voting stations where NES scrutineers
00:22:43.280 have on camera some of the voters, or Hafiz, more presumably his voters, are all taking photographs
00:22:53.220 of what their ballot looked like. Why do you need to do that? Why? Why do you need to prove
00:22:59.700 someone that's exactly how you voted? You can prove you voted, you showed up and they crossed
00:23:03.920 your name off. Why do they specifically need to see what your ballot looked like? That is illegal
00:23:08.440 in most elections. You can't be posting ballots online. The government could demand you take
00:23:15.880 that down. You'd only need to prove it to somebody if there's something that you get if you do it,
00:23:22.060 or to avoid punishment if you don't go and fill up the ballot properly. Absolutely wild. Let's go
00:23:28.780 down a little bit more. I think they also had some other photos around here. Well, they have
00:23:32.920 the video up there as well. So when I post the blog post, you'll be able to see that too.
00:23:38.300 But I want to go down some of the points that he makes here to show you just how ridiculous
00:23:42.780 this entire thing gets. So number one, there was an organized effort by Mr. Hafiz's campaign to 0.83
00:23:49.120 direct, monitor, and pressure people throughout the voting process from the time they walked
00:23:53.680 into the building to after they cast their ballots. We saw many, many cases of people
00:23:58.760 hanging around watchfully in the voting area, telling voters explicitly what they should do.
00:24:04.300 Multiple people took calls on speakerphone or video so they could get instructions in the voting booth while marking their ballots.
00:24:11.840 There were countless cases of individuals taking pictures of their ballots when brought to the attention of the party officials.
00:24:17.380 They acknowledged that they'd all seen the same practice taking place throughout the day.
00:24:21.780 In most of the world, this would be a considered clear evidence of vote buying.
00:24:26.740 Among the large number of temporary residents who voted, many could not initially state their address when asked and defaulted to documentation.
00:24:34.440 An unusually high number of people claimed to have just lost their driver's licenses or just moved to the area.
00:24:40.260 The party provided a list of IDs it would accept and then broke its own rules.
00:24:45.120 Dozens and dozens of asylum seekers voted with their refugee claimant documents.
00:24:49.660 Others were able to prove their address using just an apartment lease, sometimes unsigned, and two of which improperly listed voters under 18.
00:24:59.000 Other non-status forms of ID included digital report cards and Amazon orders.
00:25:05.720 One man even voted with a visitor's visa and foreign passport.
00:25:09.540 And by the way, when they say listed someone under 18 up here, you actually are allowed to vote in most party nominations 14 years old or older.
00:25:17.680 They're saying that people were showing apartment leases, supposedly an unsigned one.
00:25:23.020 So it's not an actual real apartment lease by any, you know, normal, like any normal evidence, evidentiary standard.
00:25:31.480 Like it's just you just filled out an apartment lease for an apartment where the owner has not even signed off on it.
00:25:36.980 And the person's not even 18.
00:25:38.580 How is a like, let's say a 15 year old in possession of an apartment lease that lists them and their address?
00:25:45.780 That doesn't make any sense.
00:25:47.680 So now we go down to number five here and it says in the last two hour or two, the OLP lost control of the voting process nearly entirely. Various people came and went, moved throughout the room or hung around with a little scrutiny.
00:26:02.340 our team witnessed repeated irregularities, people voting, and then returning to the credentials
00:26:06.720 line, people staying in the voting area long after they had voted, people entering the voting area
00:26:11.900 via the exit. So yeah, a lot of just shenanigans going on. And remember, Hafiz had only beaten
00:26:19.200 NES. I think it's Ansel Hafiz had only beat NES by 19 votes. And there were 34 more votes
00:26:28.300 counted than people who had actually voted that day. Absolutely wild. And remember, like I
00:26:35.140 previously said in other videos, the party before the vote happened removed 1265 members as being
00:26:44.140 invalid, which Hafiz himself admitted had only affected a few of his actual members on his own
00:26:51.720 list. NES, Quadra Jackson, Kadira Jackson, and someone else, I forgot what the last guy is,
00:26:58.840 they had all reported that those 1265 membership deletions had affected them quite significantly,
00:27:05.920 potentially being hundreds for each of them that were removed from their list, and Nadir Skinesmith
00:27:10.980 very much heavily protested that as disenfranchising a lot of voters. Somehow Mr. Hafiz knew that
00:27:17.480 there's no big deal for him, and it might even help him. When you don't protest something that's
00:27:23.240 clearly not kosher going on, it's probably because you know that's helping you. But anyways, 0.99
00:27:29.620 so with all that being said, thank you guys for watching this video. No doubt there will be more
00:27:36.680 updates to this story. Nadarskine-Smith is actually doing something fairly smart right now.
00:27:41.320 In the aftermath of all this, he's saying, you don't even have to make me the candidate.
00:27:45.240 Don't make me the candidate I will not run in.
00:27:48.180 If you guys redo the nomination, I will not run in it.
00:27:51.300 If you appoint somebody, you do not have to appoint me.
00:27:53.660 I'm not demanding you appoint me.
00:27:55.380 Just do it properly.
00:27:57.880 And now the party's stuck between a rock and a hard place,
00:28:00.320 as I mentioned in the previous video.
00:28:02.420 What are they going to do?
00:28:03.400 Tell him to pack sand and just go along with this fraudster being their candidate
00:28:08.580 with a lot of questionable connections and things he said and done on his own social media?
00:28:13.020 or are they going to get rid of him and appoint somebody who isn't Nate Erskine-Smith when
00:28:19.900 everyone knows the candidate probably should be him? He doesn't even have to be the candidate
00:28:23.840 at this point. If anything, again, I have no investment in Nate Erskine-Smith's political
00:28:28.200 career. I disagree with pretty much everything he thinks. But in doing all of this, he's actually
00:28:33.900 kind of beaten the party establishment already. He's already kind of given himself a hero narrative
00:28:39.040 if he decides to run for the Ontario Liberal Party leadership.
00:28:43.600 Now, the Liberal Party insiders seem to want Navdeep Bains,
00:28:46.940 and then there's actually this other guy who entered the race recently
00:28:49.640 who's kind of interesting.
00:28:51.200 Like, he's definitely a big government liberal,
00:28:53.660 but he's running specifically for the Ontario government, 0.98
00:28:59.200 if he was the premier, to force out 80% of temporary residents
00:29:03.720 from the province or just from the country who are currently in Ontario.
00:29:08.540 basically working with the federal government to make sure people leave to lower prices and lower
00:29:13.360 the pressure on youth employment good idea i can give it to him i probably don't agree with his
00:29:19.100 other views but that push to have the province of ontario take ownership over immigration and
00:29:23.880 make sure temporary residents are just temporary and they leave great idea fantastic anyways with
00:29:31.500 all that being said thank you guys for watching this video make sure to like share subscribe if
00:29:36.460 you live in the Yorkton, Melville, Saskatchewan federal riding, make sure to buy a conservative
00:29:42.260 party membership for everybody in your household, 14 years old and older, by the way, and vote for
00:29:48.680 Albert Duff, a really good social conservative to replace Kathy Wagenthal. Make sure our safe
00:29:54.340 conservative ridings stay with the most conservative person representing them. What's the point of
00:29:59.960 electing some frivolous, soupy moderate in a riding that is through and through conservative?
00:30:05.860 of. The person representing a riding should really reflect the mood of the base of that riding.
00:30:11.560 Anyways, so see you guys all later, and I'll be coming out probably with another video on this
00:30:16.440 particular subject later.
