Wyatt Claypool talks about Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's plan to prorogue Parliament to avoid a no-confidence vote, and the ridiculous reaction to it, from Conservative leader Andrew Leach and a professor at the University of Alberta, Pure Polyev.
00:11:48.720A million people have not accessed the universal dental care program.
00:11:51.860A million people have accessed dental care.
00:11:54.720And because everyone qualifies for universal dental care, technically a million qualifying people have been able to access dental care since the universal dental care program came into effect.
00:12:03.840Definitely some people have used it, but the statistics are way overstated by using vague language.
00:12:10.460But that lady didn't even use vague language.
00:12:12.300She just flat out repeated the lie that a million people have accessed, even though a lot of dentists do not take universal dental.
00:12:18.840This month, we've been able to see one million Canadians.
00:12:24.500We are releasing the most comprehensive and ambitious housing plan ever seen.
00:13:31.840It says it will launch a national school food program as part of the upcoming federal budget, pledging $1 billion to implement the program.
00:13:38.520Holiday break for Canadians, courtesy of the federal government, a two-month suspension of the GST on items like beer, cake, toys, books.
00:13:54.940The average person will save $5 over the two months.
00:13:57.960Because getting 5% off of your groceries, I know it's more in places with the HST, although that's also undermining government revenues in those areas.
00:14:05.480That it's $5 in a household, assuming that there's a family of four.
00:14:23.220I always love how it's good if the liberals put forward a very, very, very minor piece of tax relief.
00:14:31.600That's going to get wiped out by tax increases they're already planning.
00:14:35.140But if the conservatives ever put forward a plan to cut taxes, well, that's bootlicking for billionaires, according to Jagmeet Singh.
00:14:42.060Today, they're banning 324 more makes and models of firearms, adding to the list of 1,500 that they banned in 2020.
00:14:51.560Those are all literally fake achievements.
00:14:58.260Those are all things that they have not actually achieved.
00:15:01.900Programs that have not been able to be in effect long enough that they can even be measured in terms of their success, especially success per dollar spent on them.
00:15:09.300They are just promises in the future that they have no way of actually realistically achieving.
00:15:14.780And like that last one, they have banned another 324 assault weapons.
00:15:18.620Okay, well, one, that's not even an inherently good thing to ban law-abiding gun owners from owning certain models of weapons.
00:15:25.400But also, like, okay, but you guys have never even confiscated in the 2,000 guns that you previously banned because that's absurd.
00:15:34.300You're not going to go around trying to, like, wrestle Farmer Joe down to try and take away an assault-style weapon he's not supposed to own.
00:15:42.040The liberals haven't even done anything on that.
00:15:43.700Even if you agree with gun control, like gun control over weapons that we've been able to own for decades and they've not caused problems, even if you are in favor of that, have the liberals done anything on it that actually makes you want to vote for them?
00:15:56.660This is why Trudeau is just so dead in the water at this point and why I truly believe that there's a chance he could lose a pre-election in his own riding.
00:16:04.580Even if you're a diehard liberal, what have you gotten from these people?
00:16:09.060What have they done that's actually been positive, for one thing, in terms of policy outcomes, but things that even if you like the idea of it, they've actually acted on so far?
00:16:18.460Most of it has just been burning barrels full of money, burning money, censorship, and a lot of other stupid government policies that don't actually work, spending, like, tons of billions of dollars on bureaucrats to file paperwork about stuff that nobody's ever going to read.
00:16:44.040This is a bit more of an obscure topic, but I think it's worth touching on.
00:16:48.500This is NDP MP, Heather McPherson from, I believe, Edmonton, Strathcona, stumping along with the Alberta Provincial NDP against coal mining in Alberta because us having a high quality of life is somehow bad to the NDP.
00:17:05.720Once again, Daniel Smith and the UCP are risking our precious Rocky Mountains.
00:17:10.620What, are we going to, we're going to bulldoze the Rocky Mountains for coal?
00:17:49.500Again, it's like she's only learned her, like, her, her entire perspective on the environment has been shaped from the Lorax and Fern Gully and whatever new documentary Al Gore has put out.
00:18:24.900They've done some good stuff when it comes to crime and drugs and other sort of smaller policies.
00:18:30.260Adrian Lagrange has been doing a good job in health care, but there's a lot of other things they have to get on, you know, make sure they actually start moving on fast.
00:18:37.080But nowhere in my complaints is it that, my goodness, the UCP likes resource development too much.
00:18:44.060My criticism of the UCP on coal, in fact, is that they shut down the coal power plants and basically fulfilled the shutdown that the Alberta NDP had started back in their government between 2015 and 2019.
00:18:57.620But nowhere am I mad at them for extracting resources.
00:19:02.360They actually want you to be poorer so that they can feel better about themselves.
00:19:07.960These people will whine and cry if a single government employee is fired who is objectively not doing anything useful, but they don't care about preventing working class Albertans from getting a job mining coal.
00:19:22.720Mining coal that we also need, if you like solar panels, you need coal for them.
00:19:26.680But oh my goodness, Calberta can't provide that coal.
00:19:29.120We need the coal to come from fantasy land where we don't get to feel bad for mining it.
00:19:34.300We shouldn't feel bad for mining in the first place, but these people are ridiculous.
00:19:37.680About defending our identity, our economy, and our...
00:19:40.400Our identity is apparently being anti-coal.
00:21:52.960We've got to fight back against those corporate profits, those corporate profits giving money to evil coal miners.
00:21:59.380She realizes that people actually work these jobs.
00:22:02.060It's not like a mining CEO, a mining magnate, is sitting in the mine chipping away at coal by himself.
00:22:09.900It's employing tens of thousands of people to have these mines open, and it's a good thing both for the environment as well as Canadians' household well-beings.
00:22:22.100Because this is why I'm in favor of coal power.
00:22:25.080If you live in a coal town, isn't it a little bit stupid that you can't have a power plant that runs on coal?
00:22:33.160Rather than shipping solar panels, having them be manufactured in China or somewhere else,
00:22:38.900and it needs to gather materials from all over the world to be shipped to China, to be manufactured, put together, to be shipped back to Canada, and then moved to your coal town?
00:22:55.200So if you live in Alberta, especially Edmonton, guys, if there is a federal campaign you can work on, work on the Edmonton-Strathcona campaign.
00:23:04.420Heather McPherson is a disgusting, hateful bigot who also hates our economy.
00:23:09.640So if you have any volunteer hours, go and put them over there.
00:23:12.660She's probably the most anti-Israel NDP MP in all of Parliament, which is something to say.
00:23:18.400She's just blatantly pro-Hamas and likes to ignore crimes against women in Israel as well as against people in Palestine from Hamas.
00:23:30.340But this is probably a good place to end off.
