Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. For any of you still waiting for my story about my time in
00:00:06.460
Victoria last week, that video should be coming out tomorrow. That story keeps developing further
00:00:12.260
and further, so I've been putting it off. I got attacked by a bunch of woke MLAs despite just
00:00:17.640
being a staff member and it just being my first few days on the job. And when I say woke MLAs,
00:00:23.360
I am not talking about the NDP. I am in fact talking about MLAs from the BC Conservative
00:00:29.280
Party. Most of the people in that caucus are conservatives, but the agenda and what is
00:00:35.080
allowed to be said is being controlled by John Rustad, his terrible overpaid HQ team, and a few
00:00:42.040
of the woke MLAs who have basically cowed everyone else into shutting up and following their lead.
00:00:47.860
But today, we will be talking about a great question from one of the independent MLAs
00:00:53.420
that really put David Eby, the Premier of BC, on his heels because he knows what she's saying
00:01:00.500
here is true. Of course, I am talking about the MLA from Kelowna, Tara Armstrong, who got up in the
00:01:07.540
legislature last week to ask David Eby about his CCP connections in the party. The Chinese Communist
00:01:14.020
Party very clearly tries to infiltrate both governments and political parties, and one of the main ones
00:01:20.240
they've targeted in Canada is the British Columbia New Democratic Party. Take a look at this.
00:01:35.480
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Reports by investigative journalist Sam Cooper and others suggest that state actors in China are
00:01:47.000
collaborating with transnational organized crime syndicates to use Canadian banks and Vancouver real
00:01:59.640
This has resulted in highly inflated BC housing prices and has fueled the production and distribution
00:02:11.320
My question to the Premier himself is this. Has he been advised officially or unofficially of any known
00:02:22.320
or suspected state actor influence within his party?
00:02:31.880
Now, I'm actually going to be skipping the initial response to what Tara said, because I believe it's like
00:02:38.860
the public safety minister and like the house leader Gary Begg gets up and he just talks about how we're doing a
00:02:45.340
really good job trying to crack down on fentanyl in the province, and they're not. It's just a complete deflection.
00:02:50.680
So I'm going to go over to her supplemental statement in just a second, but I just want to tell a mini story.
00:02:56.000
So when I was at the ledge, I was present for this question, and I was sitting up in the gallery with the rest of the independent
00:03:02.620
MLA team. The other, of course, the other MLAs who are independents, Jordan Keighley and Dallas Brody, were sitting in the
00:03:09.100
house, but like the staff who are for the independents were all sitting up in the, in the sort of a gallery.
00:03:15.100
We had booked an area. And when she started asking that question, started talking about China, I'm not kidding you.
00:03:22.240
There was an NDP MLA who smiled really wide and looked up at us because I've been hearing this
00:03:30.680
particular MLA and a couple others hate David Eby's guts, and they were loving that this made him so
00:03:37.500
uncomfortable because now in the supplemental, you are going to see Tara Armstrong shame David Eby into
00:03:43.680
finally getting up and answering the question. And he effectively commits to kicking himself out of his
00:03:48.740
own party because there is no way that David Eby can actually with integrity remain in his party
00:03:55.620
based on what he says here. So check this out right here. By the way, we actually had some, a good
00:04:00.380
amount of conservative MLAs even banging their tables for Tara here, even though they have been told by
00:04:05.600
John Rustad and all the idiots who are running the BC conservative party HQ, that they are not allowed
00:04:10.340
to say anything positive that an independent says, and they are not allowed to like clap or show any
00:04:15.440
approval for their questions in the house or any of their statements.
00:04:18.740
Which is really funny because now John Rustad is just copying everything Dallas Brody says online
00:04:24.060
because she's actually popular and he's pretending to believe the same things she does, even though
00:04:29.440
he was the one who kicked her out of caucus. John Rustad is the master of leading from behind.
00:04:35.100
And right now, he is quite literally leading from behind the lady he kicked out of caucus.
00:04:40.680
You can't make this stuff up. But here is the supplemental from Tara Armstrong, and then I'm going to let it
00:04:46.560
play through for David Eby's very nervous answer.
00:04:49.880
With all due respect, the question was for the Premier, and it was referenced to foreign influence
00:04:56.100
within his party. The Premier must be aware that the United Front Workforce Department was identified
00:05:03.880
in the Canadian inquiry into election interference as a CCP affiliate that has active influence operations
00:05:12.440
targeting politicians within Canada and also right here in British Columbia.
00:05:18.760
Last year in a press conference, reports surfaced that Ding Guo, an advisor to the Premier,
00:05:26.440
had attended a meeting with officials of this group.
00:05:30.080
Would the Premier himself please describe his relationship with Mr. Guo and explain why he approved a grant
00:05:44.760
I gotta say, I do love the emphasis that she puts on the words there about, like, the $20,000.
00:05:50.520
He literally gave David Eby, and this has been verified. I'm going to show some stuff from Sam Cooper
00:05:54.320
in a little bit here. He gave $20,000 to one of his donors' CCP front groups.
00:06:01.760
This is a front group that he gave the money to. I believe it's, like, the Canada 100 Society
00:06:06.280
or whatever. I'll get the exact name a bit later. It doesn't really matter. But this is an obvious
00:06:09.800
CCP front group, a United Front Work Department organization. And he gave $20,000 of BC taxpayer
00:06:18.360
money to it. And then he lets this guy advise him on Chinese issues.
00:06:26.600
The member asks whether I've been advised about Ding Guo or any other individual in our party
00:06:33.000
being the target of foreign interference. Now, I have repeatedly asked the federal government
00:06:41.480
and CSIS for the full authority to be briefed on any concerns related to any issues that I should know
00:06:49.560
about as Premier. It's been a long and frustrating journey. It's required amendments to the CSIS Act
00:06:54.760
federally that were finally made. I'd say that the briefings that I've received since then have been
00:07:02.680
So, to cut him off a little bit here, he is, one, just listen to his voice. I have heard him answer
00:07:08.440
questions from Tara Armstrong and Dallas Brody before, where he goes at them like guns blazing,
00:07:14.920
or his people go at them guns blazing. He called Dallas Brody a racist. It was like foaming at the
00:07:20.840
mouth because of her question about, effectively, separatism, the separatist sentiments rising in
00:07:28.840
British Columbia. And if he's going to do anything about it, and if he's going to get all these First
00:07:33.400
Nations consultations and environmental regulations out of the way so people feel like they can actually,
00:07:37.960
you know, economically prosper in this province without constantly having new projects bogged down
00:07:43.080
and whatnot. And he like freaked out or started calling her racist. And it's all, you're a conspiracy
00:07:47.480
theorist, you're a denier. Tara Armstrong asked the government if they can define what a woman is.
00:07:52.360
And Nikki Sharma like lit her hair on fire and started like screeching about how she's transphobic.
00:07:56.600
It was insane. And here he's very, very subdued. He's just, just talking in a very subdued voice
00:08:03.320
because he's obviously in the wrong. It's an uncomfortable subject for him. Like, I don't
00:08:08.120
exactly fully believe in body language expertise, but they'd be having a field day looking at what this
00:08:14.360
guy's time, like looking at this tape of David Eby. The man is now trying to blame the federal
00:08:19.080
government and CSIS for the fact that he's obviously engaging with CCP front groups and
00:08:24.760
giving them money, the most obvious CCP front groups, because they've already been reported
00:08:29.320
on as CCP front groups by people like Sam Cooper at the bureau.ca. You know, so I'll let him keep
00:08:35.240
going. But he's basically just saying, well, it's not my fault if I'm engaging in the CCP front group.
00:08:40.280
It's the, it's, it's, it's Trudeau and now Mark Carney's fault and, and, and the CSIS somehow.
00:08:46.360
Um, if I received any information about any member of our party who was, uh, facilitating
00:08:53.080
foreign interference, I would immediately remove that individual. If we were having interactions
00:08:58.600
with individuals that, uh, CSIS advised me, uh, were attempting to promote foreign interference,
00:09:04.760
we would cease any and all contact with those individuals. And we would cooperate with any
00:09:09.080
investigation that was required by that assurance to you and to the entire house. Thank you,
00:09:13.640
honorable speaker. Yeah. Um, so the problem with that is it was already public knowledge
00:09:21.320
who people like Ding Guo were when he was attending events where Ding Guo was when he was giving money
00:09:27.560
to the Canada 100 club that he runs. This was all stuff that was very easy, like was very easily
00:09:34.120
researchable and he was still hanging out with them. So is David Eby now going to kick himself
00:09:38.440
out of the NDP? Because based on what he just said, he has to. Here is a Sam Cooper reacting to
00:09:45.720
Tara Armstrong's question. He says, good question. And based on my open source documentation reports,
00:09:51.720
quote, would the premier please explain his relationship, unquote, with a community advisor,
00:09:57.000
paraphrasing this, who has met with the UFWD. Uh, I will include my report in the thread to good,
00:10:03.560
uh, thread good research also by, you know, these two other people. And he shows like,
00:10:08.200
even just at the start of this article, you don't even need to read it. He is literally at
00:10:12.680
these front group events. These are obvious CCP front groups. There has been, uh, there's a,
00:10:19.640
there are obvious signs in the Hogue report that people like David Eby and people like Trudeau
00:10:25.880
and ministers in the liberal government, as well as in the provincial government, BC,
00:10:29.480
just were openly hanging out with these people after there was red flags raised about them
00:10:34.040
publicly by people like Sam Cooper, the media by CSIS, CSIS, literally in the Hogue report,
00:10:40.040
which the Hogue report was trying to brush a lot of this under the bed, basically saying, oh,
00:10:44.360
not really that bad. Maybe these people are just so stupid. They don't realize that when we told
00:10:48.840
them it's a CCP front group, it wasn't really a CCP front group. This is all obvious garbage.
00:10:55.480
Like David Eby has to pretend to be stupid to not like, to not understand what's going on here.
00:11:01.720
And especially when someone's donating to you in large, large sums of money, like maxing up
00:11:07.320
donations to your party. And then they're demanding money or they they're getting money from your
00:11:12.200
government. There might be some, you don't just have like a normal relationship with this person.
00:11:16.360
You obviously know that they're more important than just some random guy, you know, like,
00:11:21.320
so Ding Guo runs Canada Committee 100 Society, and David Eby gave it $20,000. Well, Ding Guo and his
00:11:29.560
wife both gave him maxed out donations during his leadership campaign, where obviously the money
00:11:35.240
means far more than in a general election. And they're also they also have connections to a lot of
00:11:40.200
other Chinese CCP front groups, and a lot of other people involved in foreign interference,
00:11:45.880
like Victor Rowe and and Yuen Pah Wu, the two former senators. So yeah, I think
00:11:55.960
is still in the Senate, but this is all obvious. All these people have been passing him money and
00:12:01.080
getting favors in return. He cannot be ignorant because he is directly engaging with them. It's
00:12:07.240
not like he sees them in passing, they invite him to an event. No, he goes to their events,
00:12:11.480
they give him money, and he gives them money. How is you can't be ignorant. David Eby is obviously
00:12:18.280
basically a puppet or an asset of the CCP at this point, because he's fully captured. He's willing
00:12:23.640
to do what these sketchy people say. And why would he stop now? Other than maybe he's just trying to
00:12:28.440
avoid seeming too close to them. But I don't he's really cutting these relationships off because it's
00:12:33.160
probably how he got into office. And you can't exactly go back with the on the one that, you know,
00:12:37.480
brung you to the dance here. So this is all stuff that I'm going to be following up on in the future.
00:12:43.320
Tara Armstrong did a fantastic job there answering, asking that question. David Eby did a awful job
00:12:49.720
answering it. Again, look at the way he even answered the question. He's so nervous. He is
00:12:55.320
not comfortable with the question that is being asked. He got Gary Begg to like answer the first
00:13:00.680
part of the question, then was kind of shamed into answering the second part, basically cutting
00:13:04.920
Tara off from getting a follow up with David because he got the last word on that.
00:13:09.400
But it's so it's so clear. He obviously knows there's something here. He obviously knows he's
00:13:14.840
done something wrong. And by the way, the BC conservatives with 41 MLAs do not ask them
00:13:20.920
any questions about the CCP. They don't ask them any questions about the Chinese government putting
00:13:26.600
tariffs on Canadian goods. I have heard from a BC conservative MLA that John Rusted does not
00:13:32.600
want to tackle the CCP issue because, paraphrasing, we might want to work with the Chinese someday,
00:13:37.800
so we don't want to call them out too hard. What the heck? That's insane that you would. What?
00:13:43.160
So Canada's national security and our democratic, like the sanctity of our democracy is willing to,
00:13:49.880
we can compromise these things because we may want to work with the Chinese government one day.
00:13:54.840
Something John Rusted apparently deeply believes that China is more important than our own
00:14:00.360
foreign, like our security and economic security. Anyways, you can't make it up.
00:14:06.920
So that's it for this video, guys. I will be coming out tomorrow or the next day with my story of what
00:14:12.520
it was like to be in Victoria. I had MLAs attacking me for what I make because I do work for Tara Armstrong,
00:14:18.520
the independent MLA. I basically make nothing. I do it for fun almost. I do like politics in general.
00:14:24.280
But I was being attacked for what I make. I was being attacked for even just being employed by
00:14:29.320
them, which is hilarious because all these people used to share my content or rely on me for things.
00:14:34.680
They really hate me because they still love me and I'm just not working with them because most of
00:14:39.480
them or a lot of them are very deeply corrupt, so I refuse to. So then they get very mad at me because
00:14:44.440
they're like spurned or whatever. But I'm not a woke person, so I refuse to follow a party that is
00:14:49.320
being controlled by the woke faction. So yeah, that's it. Like this video, subscribe to the
00:14:55.320
channel, leave a comment. That's it for me today, guys. See you around.
