Summary
In this episode, I talk about why the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario is not going to win the election, and why you should vote for the Blue party of Ontario, the Ontario Liberals. Doug Ford is running on a platform of socialist-style spending and tax and spend policies, which is exactly what you should be looking for in a Progressive Conservative government.

I'm making this video for all the people who come to me and say,
00:00:04.720
Wyatt, I understand that the new blue party is definitely better than the progressive conservatives in Ontario,
00:00:11.040
but we can't have the NDP or the Ontario Liberals win this election because they're so much worse than the PCs.
00:00:19.080
Doug Ford, the progressive conservative Premier of Ontario,
00:00:23.560
is literally running on socialist-style COVID-19 spending in the 2025 provincial election.
00:00:32.920
A provincial election he called a year and a half before the real election was actually supposed to start
00:00:38.420
because he specifically does not want Polyev becoming prime minister
00:00:42.680
because once Polyev becomes prime minister and he has to run for re-election shortly thereafter,
00:00:47.560
the standards for what a conservative are are going to go up, and Ford cannot abide by that.
00:00:53.740
Check this out. This was an actual part of his election day launch.
00:00:59.720
Since we're at the border, is this more or less a referendum on who's the strongest leader
00:01:03.740
to be able to deal with tariffs, Trump, whatever's coming at you from the U.S.?
00:01:09.280
It's twofold here. It is leadership, leadership, and leadership.
00:01:14.760
And who do you trust to take care of the people of Ontario and the businesses and the workers
00:01:21.620
Not you. Your entire economy is based on taxes and subsidies. My goodness.
00:01:27.680
And they're going to get tough. Do you trust the other parties that all they believe is tax and spend?
00:01:34.320
Or do you believe in the PC party that's going to support you?
00:01:38.780
He is literally not lower taxes, by the way, guys. He's not lower tax.
00:01:42.960
All they care about is taxing and spending. Even if you remove COVID-19 spending from the pandemic,
00:01:50.140
he spent more than Kathleen Wynne in the several years after when he took over as premier.
00:01:55.380
This is asinine that he is trying to pull this one over on people.
00:02:00.020
Put tens of billions of dollars into the economy.
00:02:02.480
Listen to this. This is where the socialist-style stuff goes.
00:02:04.980
So he was just talking about, oh, do you want one of these tax and spend liberals in as the premier?
00:02:09.760
You should have me, the guy who taxes and spends, because I'm tough.
00:02:16.680
And he is out here to pretend that he's Mr. Fiscal Conservative,
00:02:20.380
while he is about to promise you billions of dollars in relief spending.
00:02:24.460
Why relief spending? Because he refuses to secure the border,
00:02:28.760
and he refuses to do anything that would keep tariffs off of us.
00:02:31.680
Because, in fact, he wants tariffs on us, because he gets to pretend he's Mr. Canada
00:02:36.080
if tariffs go on Canada, and he gets to, like, run around wearing his stupid Canada's not-for-sale hat,
00:02:42.140
even though he is the one who is making life harder for Canadians in Ontario.
00:02:48.300
We're going to put tens of billions of dollars into the economy,
00:02:54.460
There's experience on one side with the PC party,
00:02:57.600
and zero experience with the other three parties.
00:03:01.340
He is literally touting his experience, locking people down,
00:03:09.680
There is a reason why Ontario is the most indebted state-slash-province in North America,
00:03:17.580
because of people like, I almost said Trudeau, I mean Fat Trudeau here, Doug Ford,
00:03:32.100
He, in fact, was the man who pioneered the $200 handout that Trudeau and David Eby copied.
00:03:39.060
He is literally the originator of socialist policy in Canada.
00:03:52.240
would call him a pinko when he was the mayor and a councillor,
00:03:56.020
because Doug Ford has the instincts to just give money to people he wants votes from.
00:04:02.800
Just dump a billion dollars in to create a bunch of EV and battery plant jobs,
00:04:09.540
Go and literally co-sponsor, this actually happened,
00:04:12.760
co-sponsor the federal liberals in setting up a cricket factory,
00:04:17.580
a factory meant to produce crickets for human consumption.
00:04:28.460
I'm just here to literally dump billions of COVID-style relief spending packages
00:04:37.740
into our economy because Trump is putting tariffs on us
00:04:42.120
that I have done everything in my power to steer into.
00:04:46.440
This is why I'm telling people to vote for the new blue party of Ontario
00:04:54.700
I have still not been able to have a single person who has said,
00:04:58.580
can't vote new blue because the liberals or NDP might win.
00:05:01.740
Not one of those people can tell me a substantial difference
00:05:04.700
between Ford and Bonnie Crombie or Ford and Merritt Stiles.
00:05:11.540
It's just that Doug Ford sucks as much as them.
00:05:14.360
The thing is that this does not translate to PPC people saying,
00:05:18.940
Pierre Polyev and Justin Trudeau are the exact same.
00:05:28.420
The Conservative Party federally and the Liberal Party federally
00:05:31.580
are extremely different parties with borderline opposite positions
00:05:36.660
on tons of issues, if not at least substantially different.
00:05:41.020
The Ford PC party has had higher spending than the Kathleen Wynne Liberals.
00:05:46.500
They have kept the same extremely high income taxes.
00:05:50.660
Ontario income taxes are kind of hidden in how high they are by the fact that the listed income tax,
00:06:00.620
But if you live in Ontario, obviously you already know that there are surtaxes on top of your tax.
00:06:06.900
So after you pay $5,000 in taxes to the government, they then tax that tax by 25%.
00:06:13.460
And once you start earning more than 70% or once you start giving the government more than $7,200 in tax fees in a year,
00:06:21.620
you then owe them another 33% on every dollar above $7,200.
00:06:25.580
It is a disgusting jurisdiction to do business in.
00:06:29.840
It is in fact, basically outside of maybe Quebec and the Maritimes,
00:06:34.140
the highest tax province or jurisdiction in North America.
00:06:38.600
Even Alberta is not as low tax as like places like New York and California,
00:06:44.060
despite how high tax their reputation is in the United States.
00:06:49.760
In Ontario, it's so bad that they can bind to the point where upper level income brackets
00:06:55.220
are literally like 54% combined between federal and provincial without even bringing property taxes into it.
00:07:03.080
This government doesn't deserve your vote if you're a conservative.
00:07:06.240
If you are a federal conservative, I cannot in good conscience say that it is a good option to vote for the PC party.
00:07:13.960
If you live in Ontario, please vote for the New Blue Party of Ontario.
00:07:18.200
If you live in Halderman, Norfolk's provincial riding, vote for Bobbie Ann Brady.
00:07:23.880
She's currently the independent MPP of the art riding and one of very few independents who has ever won election flat out.
00:07:31.100
She didn't win as a party and then become an independent.
00:07:35.180
She is like the absolute monster when you consider how difficult that is.
00:07:41.040
If you live in Ontario and your riding doesn't have a New Blue candidate, sign up to be the New Blue candidate.
00:07:46.320
Even if you're not able to campaign a lot in the next 30 days, have the option on the ballot because all three of these parties, the PCs, the NDP, and the Liberals of Ontario are truly just socialist parties.
00:07:59.760
They are slightly different levels of socialist parties, but it's hard to even say it's that different in practice because I haven't seen the Ontario Liberals or Ontario NDP govern in quite a while now.
00:08:13.420
Maybe Bonnie Crombie is more fiscally conservative than Ford.
00:08:17.360
I cannot tell you she isn't with gun-to-my-head certainty.
00:08:25.940
But both of them are still in favor of industrial carbon taxes because that's the way you do an end run around these things.
00:08:33.000
You just say you're against carbon taxes while just implementing a different version of the carbon tax.
00:08:38.500
People are literally criticizing Carney and Freeland for this right now, and rightfully so, when they say they're against the consumer carbon tax.
00:08:45.660
But they just have their own carbon tax scheme in the background.
00:08:51.880
While opposing the federal carbon tax on the surface, although he literally screwed up the court case the Ontario government ran against consumer carbon tax,
00:09:01.020
he literally had his legal team basically give the entire argument to the federals and just say, we don't like it, and surprise, they lost.
00:09:08.760
But Ford, at the same time that all this is happening, has implemented his own provincial industrial carbon tax.
00:09:18.840
It's wild to think that anyone sees this guy as conservative.
00:09:24.920
He does not get to own the second word in the party's title.
00:09:33.440
As I keep saying, it is a party that is not trying to do anything radical.
00:09:37.580
They just want, basically, the promises that Ford and the PCs falsely made back in 2018 to actually be achieved.
00:09:45.680
You know, parental rights, reforming the school system, cracking down on crime, lowering taxes, lowering spending, ripping the dumb windmills out of the ground and actually making power cheaper again.
00:10:00.480
You know, not blowing billions of dollars into the economy to make whatever big corporations that are backing Doug Ford happy.
00:10:15.600
I have a habit that I'm trying to get over of saying, this is it for me today.
00:10:18.840
Because I used to only make one video a day, and now sometimes I make, like, two or three, and I seem like an idiot whenever I say, that's it for me today, and then you see me again an hour later.
00:10:30.120
