00:00:00.000 I genuinely have a lot of respect for the men and women who work over in CSIS, but whoever wrote up this report needs to be fired.
00:00:07.920 Apparently, CSIS is claiming that the anti-gender theory movement is a danger to Canadian society,
00:00:14.780 that they pose a violent threat to gay and trans people because people do not want their children to be taught gender theory in the classroom,
00:00:22.880 they don't like public funds going towards drag queen story hours,
00:00:25.760 and they don't want hormone blockers and other sorts of medical interventions being offered to minors below a certain age.
00:00:32.140 I feel like this is very obviously being released politically because of the movements that Danielle Smith, Blaine Higgs, and Scott Moe are making in different provinces in Canada in favor of parental rights.
00:00:44.780 So now we have to release something basically implying that this entire movement is secretly far right and full of Nazis and racists or whatever.
00:00:52.600 So here's a quote from a CBC article when they reached out to a CSIS spokesperson.
00:00:57.820 This CSIS spokesperson said,
00:00:59.260 CSIS assesses that the violent threat posed by the anti-gender movement is almost certain to continue over the coming years
00:01:06.140 and that violent actors may be inspired by the University of Waterloo attack to carry out their own extreme violence against the 2SLGBTQI plus community
00:01:15.240 or against other targets they view as representing the gender ideology agenda, said CSIS spokesperson Eric Baldwin.
00:01:21.220 And that is insane.
00:01:23.660 This entire idea that, hey, there is a single violent attack that has happened in Canada,
00:01:28.420 and obviously, like, mothers are going to run out of the house and just start attacking people in favor of parental rights, 1.00
00:01:35.040 like screaming parental rights, and then they start shooting up a grocery store. 0.97
00:01:38.840 No.
00:01:39.440 If you know anything about that University of Waterloo attack, you know that this is utter nonsense.
00:01:45.640 What that was was an international student, an obvious Islamist, showed up to a gender, like, theory, a gender studies class 0.90
00:01:55.360 and started trying to stab people.
00:01:57.560 This is not the typical person in the parental rights movement in Canada,
00:02:02.060 the middle class family who supports parental rights and opposes gender theory being taught in the classroom.
00:02:08.160 That was obviously an outlier individual, and obviously the media doesn't want to call them what they are, an Islamist,
00:02:15.420 someone who is obviously an Islamic terrorist showing up to try and kill people in an area of the university
00:02:22.100 in a program that they would have, like, I guess, hated in some ideological sense.
00:02:27.880 But the idea that CSIS is now using that to pretend that people who support parental rights are dangerous is disgusting.
00:02:34.900 Again, the people who are putting this report out should be fired.
00:02:38.260 The people defending this report in the government should be fired.
00:02:40.980 This is just a way to try and intimidate people from showing up to school board meetings and raising their voices,
00:02:47.000 from people being able to lobby the government for changes to their curriculum and all this stuff,
00:02:51.480 because you might be labeled as a Nazi.
00:02:53.740 And I'm getting to that.
00:02:54.480 It's not even some sort of, like, an exaggeration that they think you could be a Nazi.
00:02:59.440 This is later on in the CBC article.
00:03:01.220 They say, trans and drag communities in Canada, and this is from the report, sorry,
00:03:05.560 trans and drag communities in Canada have been a target of several online threats
00:03:09.240 and real-world intimidation tactics in recent months.
00:03:11.960 First, online threats and other intimidation tactics are not a sign of potential, like, violence in a realistic way these days.
00:03:21.520 I have gotten death threats.
00:03:22.960 A lot of other people I know have gotten death threats, and I've obviously never been in danger in my entire life.
00:03:28.600 It's just not how online threats work.
00:03:30.840 It's just too easy to send them.
00:03:32.580 You need something more substantial, like a parental rights protest that turned into throwing bricks and trying to beat people up.
00:03:38.260 The way, you know, the pro-Hamas-type rallies tend to go or the Antifa-type rallies tend to go or they start actively getting in people's faces and trying to throw punches,
00:03:47.660 that's when we can say that there is a potential for violence.
00:03:50.580 If that was going on, I might agree that there's some radical elements to the movement.
00:03:54.820 We have not seen that, and now they're using, again, this random Islamist who should be deported or shot. 0.99
00:04:01.860 This guy is now the poster child for what the parental rights movement is, even though he was probably never actually engaged in the movements itself.
00:04:09.660 And acting, again, like middle-class people are going to be inspired by him to attack someone is patently absurd.
00:04:15.180 Anyways, here's the ongoing quote from the document.
00:04:19.180 He said,
00:04:19.860 Okay, what does that mean?
00:04:33.680 Who cares?
00:04:34.720 That doesn't actually mean that being in favor of parental rights is bad.
00:04:39.460 If you can find someone who is genuinely, like, just hates gay people in a visceral way and all this stuff,
00:04:46.020 yeah, the parental people in the parental rights movement are going to say that's wrong.
00:04:49.780 There's a lot of parental rights rallies that happened where someone tried to say something that was, like, just hateful,
00:04:55.060 and one of the organizers would say,
00:04:56.560 Hey, that's not what we're about.
00:04:58.120 Please get out of here.
00:04:58.940 That's not what we stand for.
00:05:00.980 That's never actually happened in a mainstream parental rights movement protest.
00:05:05.100 And the fact that they try and lump in the freedom movement between neo-Nazis and, like, QAnon is absolutely insane.
00:05:12.840 What about the freedom movement?
00:05:14.420 Can they define the freedom movement?
00:05:16.660 Really, all these, frankly, left-wing activists inside of CSIS,
00:05:20.060 and, again, I think most people in CSIS are perfectly fine,
00:05:23.640 but there are obviously some left-wing activists inside of CSIS
00:05:26.760 who want to just sort of bundle together a bunch of things that they personally disagree with
00:05:30.960 with a bunch of smear labels, fascists, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, freedom movement,
00:05:37.180 and then they put that up against Dialoglon and QAnon as well,
00:05:41.100 and they sort of sandwich it in between as if it's equivalent.
00:05:43.940 They know the freedom movement's mainstream.
00:05:46.060 They know the parental rights movement is mainstream,
00:05:48.080 and they're trying to tie it in as many ways as possible in these official documents to fringe movements.
00:05:54.820 I already see, frankly, morons on social media putting out these articles, left-wing academics,
00:06:01.000 thinking, see, see, the parental rights movement is radical,
00:06:03.800 and now Daniel Smith is wrong for trying to pass parental rights protections.
00:06:06.860 This is what it's meant for.
00:06:08.240 This is not a document that's actually going to cause CSIS to investigate anyone or to try and arrest anyone.
00:06:13.720 It's just something to sprinkle out there for left-wing propaganda
00:06:17.040 to try and rally people against the parental rights movement
00:06:19.960 because the federal government is currently against it,
00:06:22.860 and so they want everyone included in that
00:06:25.940 because they know a lot of mainstream conservatives are in the parental rights movement.
00:06:28.980 They want all those people tarred and feathered with the idea
00:06:31.820 that they're somehow far-right radical or capable of violence.
00:06:35.980 Crazy nonsense.
00:06:37.320 Fire those individuals from CSIS, whoever were behind this report,
00:06:40.580 and I want to investigate if this report was mandated by someone in the PMO
00:06:45.180 because I don't believe that there's a small chance that that's true.
00:06:49.340 Anyways, that should be it for me today.
00:06:51.100 I just want to quickly mention the fact that I, Wyatt Claypool,
00:06:53.720 am running for the Calgary Signal Hill Conservative Party nomination.
00:06:56.780 If you live out here in Calgary Signal Hill and the riding boundaries I have on screen,
00:07:01.440 buy a membership.
00:07:02.420 Visit my website in the description below, wyattclaypool.com,
00:07:05.760 and just make sure you vote for me number one on your ballot whenever the nomination date is called.
00:07:10.280 Probably not happening until after April.
00:07:12.800 And then also I have my, in the description below as well,
00:07:15.360 I have the link to our Give, Send, Go campaign.
00:07:18.900 I, myself, and the National Telegraph are being sued by a billionaire developer
00:07:23.560 who thinks that we have defamed him.
00:07:25.320 I don't actually think he thinks we defamed him.
00:07:27.920 He's just finding a way of bullying us into giving him a fake apology
00:07:31.580 by just trying to ramp up the financial costs on us through this lawsuit.
00:07:35.800 He hasn't even submitted any real evidence that what we said about him was wrong.
00:07:39.920 Our guest writer who wrote the article, which mentioned him, it wasn't even all about him,
00:07:44.640 merely took all the information already reported about him from the Globe and Mail,
00:07:49.600 included it in our article,
00:07:50.800 and then just shared the fact that he was donating to Aaron O'Toole alongside some other people.
00:07:55.220 It wasn't a smear against him.
00:07:56.700 It was so obviously not, but he wants to pretend that he's all offended
00:08:00.960 because he wants to, I guess, project power and show he can force people to, like, bow before him or whatever.
00:08:06.440 Well, we're not going to do that.
00:08:07.600 And if you donate, it helps reduce the burdens of cost on us.
00:08:11.180 Anyways, that should be it for me today.
00:08:12.900 See you guys later.
