Summary
Mark Gerritsen, the desperate liberal MP for Kingston and the Islands, is out there today making wild swipes at Pierre Polyev, yet again trying to impair him to Donald Trump. I don't know why the Liberals think that this narrative is suddenly going to work, but I guess if they keep repeating it, maybe people will believe it.

It's been another day, so we have yet another extremely ill-conceived attack on Pierre Polyev
00:00:06.180
by a very desperate liberal MP. That desperate liberal MP is someone you probably all recognize
00:00:12.120
at this point, Mr. Mark Gerritsen, the MP for Kingston and the Islands, a man very desperate
00:00:18.000
to get himself a cabinet position before the liberal government under Trudeau collapses,
00:00:22.960
and so he's out there today making wild swipes at Pierre Polyev, yet again trying to impair him
00:00:28.980
to Donald Trump. I don't know why the liberals think that this narrative is suddenly going to
00:00:33.440
work. It has not worked over the past few months, but I guess if they keep repeating it, maybe people
00:00:38.540
will believe it, but here's the clip clipped by the counter signal. Go follow Kian Bexley and the
00:00:43.740
counter signal on Twitter. I like whenever people get these clips online fast, and I was definitely
00:00:49.240
too lazy to go clip it from CPAC myself. So at the end of the day, Mr. Polyev's approach is exactly
00:00:55.300
like Donald Trump's approach from the United States. It's all about feeding in and feeding
00:01:00.520
off of the emotions of people to try to get the better of them. Our job, one of our jobs,
00:01:05.180
is going to be to point that out, and that's exactly what we're doing here today.
00:01:08.320
But isn't that, but isn't this what an election campaign is for? Like, pardon me, we're not,
00:01:13.180
we're not in a campaign that's typically when a leader will put out a platform, that's when they
00:01:17.740
I mean, you would have to ask yourself, isn't the way that Mr. Polyev acts now and has always
00:01:26.160
He didn't reveal his platform in 2013. He revealed it in the 2015 election campaign.
00:01:31.060
Justin Trudeau became leader in 2013. He didn't reveal a platform then. He revealed it in the
00:01:37.220
But we were certainly talking about our values and what was important to us.
00:01:42.800
So when a liberal does something like talks about the values that they believe in, creates
00:01:50.160
kind of a vague vision for what they want the country to be more like, that's good. If a
00:01:55.060
conservative like Pierre Polyev does it, goes around and speaks about the small government
00:01:59.040
vision he has for Canada, wanting to reduce taxes, get the government out of people's way,
00:02:03.100
that's very bad. And it's very Donald Trump-like, because for some reason, Donald Trump is the
00:02:07.820
only politician who feeds off of and into the emotions of voters. If anything, I think that
00:02:13.220
describes the vast majority of politicians, because he would be a horrible politician if
00:02:17.300
you do not speak to things that people are passionate about. When you say someone is emotional
00:02:21.760
about something, or they have a strong emotion in regards to a policy issue, that means they
00:02:26.380
are passionate about that policy issue. But Mark Gerritsen thinks that this is extremely
00:02:31.620
mega-oriented, that Pierre Polyev has the audacity to go to, you know, different locations around
00:02:36.920
the country and speak to the issues that really matter to people, and has not released a platform,
00:02:42.640
something a reporter rather befuddly said, because I think it seems like she got caught
00:02:48.180
off guard with how silly Mark Gerritsen's point was. So she's like, and then I think another
00:02:52.700
reporter jumped in, I think it was two different ladies. But then one of them was like, isn't
1.00
00:02:57.480
that just how an election campaign works, that you release a platform during an election? And then the
00:03:02.100
other chimed in and rightfully pointed out, well, Trudeau was the liberal leader in 2013 and then
00:03:07.220
hadn't actually put out a platform until 2015. This is just kind of how politics works. Unless
00:03:12.680
you're Aaron O'Toole and foolish enough to be constantly putting out these like 50-page reports
00:03:17.480
no one's going to read on different policy issues as if your only audience is trying to
00:03:21.660
please Andrew Coyne. Most politicians, it's smart to just stay vague, see where people are at,
00:03:27.140
and then develop a platform based on what kind of feedback you're getting from voters. It's not like
00:03:31.900
becoming leader and then day one releasing a platform based on only what you would want to
00:03:36.120
see in government. You got to talk to people a little bit here. But Mark Gerritsen thinks this
00:03:40.940
is very radical and very bad. And like, I would maybe want to look this up right now just because
00:03:45.600
it'd be funny. But Mark Gerritsen, it's a generally more of a historically safe seat for the liberals in
00:03:53.040
Ontario, Kingston, and the islands. But I have a strong feeling that there is a good chance that
00:03:58.360
Mark Gerritsen could lose it. But 338's polling projections are not always completely accurate.
00:04:05.320
There is a little bit of missability because it's just a projection itself. But Mark Gerritsen right
00:04:10.480
now, the writing only says it's leaning liberal at the moment. A couple polls have come out that show
00:04:16.880
the liberals doing a little bit better in Ontario than they previously were. But I do think that at some
00:04:23.020
point, a lot of this bad rhetoric from Mark Gerritsen, this incredibly just like childish
00:04:28.240
kind of way he acts in parliament is going to come back and bite him. And I don't doubt that either
00:04:34.000
his entire writing, not his entire writing, but his writing is going to shift more blue or more orange
00:04:39.580
in response to the fact that they maybe want a guy who, you know, can control himself emotionally.
00:04:45.740
The man is just constantly swiping at people. You know, he's the type of person who just
00:04:50.400
randomly like starts screeching in parliament and then gets mad at other people when they say
00:04:55.620
something slightly unparliamentary to him, even though that is his entire career is attacking
00:05:00.320
other people with unfair smears. But whatever, it's not going to work. And I guess that's a great
00:05:05.660
place to leave off this video today. I have my give, send, go legal fund linked in the description
00:05:11.160
of this video below or in the replies. If I upload this video to Twitter, I'm being sued by a billionaire
00:05:16.060
winning that lawsuit. But it's just a typical stupid slap suit where someone's trying to drain
00:05:20.900
you of funds because they don't actually have any evidence that you did anything wrong. So they're
00:05:24.740
suing myself and the National Telegraph. And then I'm also running for the Calgary Signal Hill
00:05:29.460
Conservative Party nomination. So if you live in Calgary Signal Hill, make sure you buy a Conservative
00:05:34.040
Party membership, make sure your entire household has a membership and vote for me in the nomination
00:05:38.820
race. I also have my website for that linked in the description or the replies. So make sure to check it
00:05:43.940
out if you live in the area. Based on the viewership I usually get on videos, like I've said in previous
00:05:47.720
videos, guaranteed a bunch of you live in the riding. So check out which riding you live in.
