Jagmeet Singh and the federal NDP are still terrible at politics, and I'm here to talk about it. Also, Jagmeet Singh is trying to pick fights with conservative federal leader Pierre Polyvencic, and it's not working.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 In a piece of absolutely non-breaking news, Jagmeet Singh and the federal NDP are still
00:00:05.680 terrible at politics. I know that's not shocking to any of you, but it's still baffling to me,
00:00:11.720 because I imagine right now it's better than ever to be the NDP, because Justin Trudeau and the
00:00:17.320 Liberal Party are extremely unpopular, and in theory the NDP should be a fairly logical next
00:00:23.620 party to be voting for for a lot of disenfranchised Liberal voters. But Jagmeet Singh and the NDP
00:00:29.320 seem to be perfect at triangulating the wrong tone and wrong positions on every single issue
00:00:35.900 to make sure that Canadians don't trust them. Like right now, Canadians think we spend way too
00:00:40.700 much in government. They think there's way too many regulations, taxes are too high, and they don't
00:00:45.980 like the progressive sanctimoniousness of Justin Trudeau. And then Jagmeet Singh rocks up to the
00:00:52.420 podium and basically says, I'm going to be Justin Trudeau on steroids. More spending, just hyper
00:00:58.040 progressive as ever. I want even more regulations. I want to attack the rich with knives and spears and
00:01:05.040 whatnot. Like he's just a militant socialist at a time when people don't like that. They think that
00:01:11.500 Justin Trudeau is too much of that. And now Jagmeet Singh is saying, I'll be that even harder. And I love
00:01:18.940 looking at Jagmeet Singh's social media, because he just doesn't get it. He just doesn't get that nobody
00:01:24.700 takes him seriously. And now he's trying to pick fights with conservative federal leader, Pierre
00:01:29.120 Polyev, as if anyone thinks of these two as like contenders. Jagmeet Singh is like an afterthought in
00:01:35.620 federal politics. He's a fourth place seated party behind the Bloc Québécois, a party that only runs in
00:01:42.280 one province. Nobody thinks that Jagmeet Singh is going to be prime minister. He can say when I'm prime
00:01:47.580 minister as many times as he likes. But people are only ever going to laugh at that as if he's
00:01:52.400 trying to be self depreciating. Like it's a great comedy bit for Jagmeet Singh to say when I'm prime
00:01:58.600 minister. But now he's posting stuff like this as if like Pierre Polyev takes him seriously, fears at
00:02:04.800 him at all, or even thinks about Jagmeet Singh. I don't think Polyev ever thinks of Jagmeet Singh unless
00:02:11.440 he's using effectively his political corpse to beat Justin Trudeau. But so this is something that
00:02:16.560 Jagmeet Singh posted today. And you can see my comment underneath it. He said this weekend,
00:02:21.340 I gave Pierre Polyev an ultimatum 48 hours to stop blocking access to birth control for women and
00:02:27.120 Canadians. Today is the deadline. He can withdraw or we'll stop him. He'll he's going to learn never
00:02:34.280 mess with women's rights in Canada again. And I just said, I'm sorry, sir. Who are you? Because who is
00:02:41.120 this guy? What who does he think he is? Like, obviously, I know who Jagmeet Singh is,
00:02:45.900 thus the rant so far. But who actually cares about who Jagmeet Singh is, and what his personal
00:02:52.460 problem with Pierre Polyev is? I don't know if Jagmeet Singh knows this. But Pierre Polyev is not
00:02:58.900 the current prime minister of the country. That would be Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. It's in the name
00:03:03.640 Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Pierre Polyev, maybe it's because he's so high in the polls and Jagmeet Singh is so
00:03:09.440 low that Jagmeet Singh in a weird psychological way already associates Pierre Polyev with the
00:03:14.880 prime ministership. But one, the conservatives aren't blocking anything. They are a opposition
00:03:21.020 party. And you and the liberals in the bloc currently hold the majority, even if Jagmeet Singh didn't vote
00:03:27.680 for this birth control thing. The bloc would. Jagmeet Singh is not even a player in this conversation.
00:03:33.740 He doesn't actually factor in at all. And he's like putting ultimatums to Pierre Polyev. Ooh,
00:03:40.120 Polyev, if you don't respond to me, then I'm going to do something like what you're going to pass the
00:03:45.740 bill anyways. Like, yeah, the conservatives are not voting for this bloated pharmacare bill and all the
00:03:51.520 other provisions. And because one, it's inefficient and will not actually get many people medication.
00:03:57.180 And two, it's causing crazy inflation, which is just going to cause more people to not be able to
00:04:02.100 afford their own medication and thus require more government support. It's a completely circular
00:04:08.360 policy, just as all socialist policies are. And Jagmeet Singh is like trying to make this like a
00:04:14.080 emotional war between him and Pierre Polyev. Polyev, I've left you 10,000 messages on your machine.
00:04:20.980 Why haven't you called me back? Like, I expect Jagmeet Singh to start crying next time he talks about
00:04:27.540 Polyev not like noticing his existence because he doesn't matter. And now I just want to go over to
00:04:33.340 this other video because this video is so, in a certain sense, whiny. At the same time, it's like
00:04:39.740 deeply insecure. I know those two things aren't too far off, but one, he's whining about having no
00:04:46.180 donors himself. And then he's just deeply insecure about his own support base. But this is Jagmeet Singh
00:04:52.600 with his post on X that says, 100 reasons not to trust Pierre Polyev. And notice that ratio,
00:04:58.960 3,800 people commenting on this video with only 962 liking it. And I can guarantee you a lot of
00:05:06.480 those retweets are either ironic or just quote teats making fun of him. But check this out where he's
00:05:12.220 basically upset that Polyev is popular enough to actually be able to raise money.
00:05:16.340 Let me give you 100 reasons why not to trust Pierre Polyev. 100 of the nation's leading corporate
00:05:21.900 lobbyists, both former and present, have met with and donated to Pierre Polyev. These aren't just any
00:05:26.960 old corporate lobbyists. These are the ones that represent the greedy CEOs.
00:05:30.900 Oh, the greedy CEOs, not like all those other corporate lobbyists who are good.
00:05:36.160 I'm just going to say this right now. This is so ironic for Jagmeet Singh to be saying.
00:05:40.200 The NDP is effectively a lobbyist party. It is a public sector union lobbyist party. That's the only
00:05:47.440 reason they exist. That's the only reason they get seats, is because QP and Unifor and all the other
00:05:53.500 unions effectively force their members or push their members into donating to the NDP. They have
00:05:59.380 massive lobbying front groups who act as NDP front groups for federal politics. Why do you think the
00:06:05.500 unions pretty much always endorse the NDP, except until recently where some of them will endorse the
00:06:10.680 liberals because Jagmeet Singh is pants on head stupid. But for the most part, they always vote
00:06:15.880 for the NDP. Yes, union members. I know a lot of you probably work for public sector unions and you
00:06:21.880 hate the way that your unions represent you in federal policy. But the NDP is the most lobbyist
00:06:27.980 heavy party in the country because all of its support comes from lobbyists. All of its donations
00:06:33.100 come from lobby groups or non-profit far-left workers. I'm going to keep letting it go. But he's
00:06:39.760 like, oh, these people are representing greedy CEOs in the oil and gas industry.
00:06:44.240 Yes. These are the ones that represent the greedy CEOs. Big oil and gas, big pharma,
00:06:48.580 big corporate landlords and real estate investors. That's who he's meeting. And it shows in the way
00:06:53.560 he's voting. I'll let you make your own determination, but I don't think it's a
00:06:56.540 coincidence that he voted against a pharma care, which would have meant lower cost for medication,
00:07:01.460 something that big pharma is clearly opposed to. He voted against a school lunch program,
00:07:05.420 which would have saved money for families, made sure kids aren't hungry,
00:07:07.700 but would maybe impact that bottom line for big corporate grocery stores. He voted against...
00:07:13.640 Sorry, what corporate lobbyist was opposing school lunch programs? There's a lot of reasons to
00:07:19.680 oppose school lunch programs or other pharma care, universal dental programs, because they just don't
00:07:25.140 work. They're inefficient. And the fact that you actually are, these programs are increasing
00:07:29.400 inflation, which is the reason people need to access them. Why do you think kids are going to school
00:07:33.740 hungry, Jagmeet? You and Justin have been running this country for eight years. I know that Jagmeet
00:07:39.680 and the MDP have only been involved since 2019. But still, to be fair, that's when the vast majority
00:07:44.740 of the problems started. But people need these programs because you're bankrupting them. And so
00:07:49.420 they don't really need these programs. They need you to stop trying to bankrupt them, and then they will
00:07:53.680 not need them anymore. But apparently, Pure Polyev is sitting in the background scheming with Galen
00:07:59.700 Weston and greedy CEOs to prevent little Sammy from getting a sandwich. No, it's not happening.
00:08:06.980 But Jagmeet Singh is like fighting on behalf of fake people, fake individuals, and fake individuals who
00:08:12.900 in theory, he was the one who actually harmed. A renter's protection fund, which would protect
00:08:17.700 renters against big corporate landlords. Again, he sided with big corporate landlords. It is very clear
00:08:23.700 whose side he's on. I'll let you be the one to judge all these things. But let's be clear,
00:08:27.700 new Democrats are on your side. We've been fighting for you. We don't work for the billionaires,
00:08:31.620 for the big corporations. We work for you. You just voted for the big corporation
00:08:36.980 budget. He called the Liberals 2024 budget a big corporate lobbyist conservative budget,
00:08:44.740 and it's a big corporate welfare budget. And then he voted for it. And guess who didn't vote for it?
00:08:49.460 The conservatives. Apparently, this was their budget. This was everything the conservatives wanted,
00:08:54.180 and they voted against it. Because it turns out the conservatives actually want less spending,
00:08:57.940 just as most Canadians want less spending. It's unheard of in Canada to actually have a situation
00:09:04.180 where people want less spending. Because Canada, there's a lot of default Liberals,
00:09:08.820 especially in Eastern Canada, who associate more spending with more prosperity. Because the idea is
00:09:14.340 that nasty, evil conservatives in the United States always want to cut spending, even though,
00:09:18.900 again, Democrats or Republicans always increase spending no matter who's in power. And they
00:09:23.060 think of it as a very Canadian thing to have more state intervention in the economy and more programs
00:09:28.100 and all this stuff. Getting the vast majority of Canadians, like 67%, to say, yes, we have way too
00:09:34.100 much spending, please cut it, is insane. And that's not with the rest of people, the other 33%,
00:09:40.980 wanting more spending. No, no, no. That's what like another 15% saying, oh, I don't know if we have,
00:09:46.020 we need to reduce or keep spending at the right level. Like there's very, there's only about 10%
00:09:51.300 people, maybe 18%, who think spending needs to go up. And I guess they're all voting for the NDP
00:09:56.820 and the Greens and some are still voting for the Liberals. But Jagmeet Singh is just embarrassing.
00:10:02.340 He doesn't know how to orient himself in this political landscape at all. The idea that he's
00:10:07.060 fighting back against the CEOs while he's literally in government and pretending that pure poly of
00:10:12.260 his big role blocked all of his priorities is just embarrassing. He cannot read the political room.
00:10:17.620 But anyways, I just want to quickly talk about one other thing, the stupid disinformation poll that
00:10:22.580 Frank Graves released that some Liberals are making a lot of hay about. It's just too small of a topic
00:10:27.540 for me to turn into its own video. It would be only like three minutes. So I'm just gonna quickly address
00:10:32.500 that. But first, I just want to bring up the map of the riding that I'm running in. Again, I always plug
00:10:38.020 this. Again, my name is Wyatt Claypool. I'm running for the federal conservative party nomination in
00:10:42.100 Calgary Signal Hill here. So here's the city of Calgary. I just realized I never actually show you
00:10:46.820 guys what the ridings look like to make it easier to understand what I'm talking about. So if you live
00:10:51.060 in the city of Calgary, this is the riding I'm running in right here. Here's all the communities,
00:10:55.540 Discovery Ridge, Glen Morgan, Glenbrook, Calgary, Signal Hill, Aspen, West Springs, all this. You have
00:11:01.940 Crestmont Valley Ridge, all this is in bounds. So if you live in any of this area of Calgary,
00:11:11.460 please make sure to buy a conservative party membership and check out my website and description
00:11:16.580 below, wyattclaypool.com. But now I want to move on to Mark Gerritsen, everyone's least favorite
00:11:23.620 liberal MP going on about this stupid disinformation poll done by Frank Graves over at ECOS,
00:11:30.660 like supposedly showing that conservatives believe disinformation more than any other party.
00:11:37.300 So check this out. He says, the only thing more alarming than this crap is that those in the high
00:11:42.420 and very, those in the high and very high category will claim this is fake news. It just is fake news.
00:11:48.980 I don't want to go into the particular questions, but if you guys know anything about this Frank Graves
00:11:55.380 disinformation poll that he releases every once in a while, it's entirely fake. Like that's the only
00:12:00.740 way I can really put this. What he like, what he considers disinformation is insane. He thinks
00:12:07.220 that if you don't think that Canada's GDP is increasing the fastest out of the entire G7,
00:12:13.380 that's disinformation. If you don't believe that climate change is purely due to human action,
00:12:20.100 that's disinformation. Even though you can literally look at a climate chart of warmer
00:12:24.340 and cooler periods going on for a thousand years. No, that is disinformation to believe
00:12:29.780 that it is not the vast majority of human action causing the climate to potentially be warming right
00:12:35.220 now. It's silly. Obviously carbon in the atmosphere warms the climate. If you put anything in the
00:12:40.260 atmosphere, it'd warm the climate. If you just shot up a bunch of gummy bears into the atmosphere and
00:12:45.060 had them floating around the planet, that would potentially affect the climate. It's just how
00:12:49.540 anything in the climate will change things. But the climate also changes on its own too. That's just
00:12:54.420 how it works. I know I'm going to have like press progress on me or some left-wing think tank
00:12:59.060 saying that I'm like a danger to Canada as a conservative candidate, because I think that there are many
00:13:04.820 things that change the climate. Should we want lower emissions? Maybe. Also, we shouldn't make
00:13:10.580 people's lives worse to do it. But all of the questions in this disinformation poll are just
00:13:15.380 backhanded. Some of them are legitimate disinformation. I'd agree with that. When
00:13:21.300 people say 100% of the money being sent to Ukraine is all money laundering. Yeah, that's not correct.
00:13:26.660 That's just not true. People will believe very hyperbolic things because it feels emotionally
00:13:32.660 resonant. Like I talk to liberals all the time at the doors while I'm door knocking and they'll
00:13:37.700 say things like, well, the UCP lowered healthcare spending. No, they didn't. No party in Alberta has
00:13:43.700 reduced healthcare spending since like the Ralph Klein days. And he was more so efficient, making
00:13:48.740 the healthcare system more efficient, which is why our wait times even went down when he was the
00:13:52.900 premier. But you'll just have people casually say things that are just not true at all. But Frank
00:13:57.620 Greggs would never ask people, did the conservatives in your province lower or raise healthcare
00:14:02.580 spending? He would never test that. He's only testing things that might trip up conservatives.
00:14:07.620 And then the joke is half of the questions are not even really disinformation to believe it. It's
00:14:12.900 just that you disagree with Frank Greggs' opinion. Obviously, if I put in a question about do crystals
00:14:19.460 help you heal from terminal illnesses, that would catch up a lot of liberal and green party voters
00:14:27.220 because they have a lot of granola naturalist type people who vote for them. I talk to enough
00:14:31.940 liberal people, there's a lot of still hippie-ish liberals out there. There's lots of ways I could
00:14:36.340 construct any poll in order to tell me that the other party supporters are bad, nasty people who
00:14:41.860 believe stupid things. Obviously. Have you ever talked to people? A lot of people believe a lot of
00:14:46.740 silly things. But Frank Greggs is so insecure because he's a deep, deep liberal that he keeps putting
00:14:51.860 out these scuffed polls. I don't even think he believes these polls aren't accurate. I think
00:14:56.420 he's just so liberal, he can't put together a good poll. So at the same time that every other pollster
00:15:02.180 is showing conservatives at anywhere from 18 to 21 points ahead of the liberals, Frank Greggs is like
00:15:08.820 showing that the conservatives are only had by like 10 points. And he's saying, well, no, no, no,
00:15:12.980 this is accurate because, you know, I crunched the numbers multiple times as we always verify that our
00:15:18.820 sampling is right. Dude, how did you get like only like 50% or it's like 47% of people in Alberta
00:15:26.260 saying they're voting conservative? That's like a gimme that the conservatives are going to be at
00:15:30.100 like 63%, maybe minimum 60. But he looks at, he gets all these crazy polling results where somehow
00:15:38.340 like Manitoba was the vast majority of the Western pro, not the vast majority, but it was disproportionately
00:15:43.940 pulled Manitoba. And then he's not confused on why he gets way more liberal supporters in
00:15:48.580 Western Canada when he pulled Manitoba more than he pulled Saskatchewan proportionately to their
00:15:53.940 populations. Ugh. For the most part, polling is actually very accurate. But whenever bad polling
00:16:00.180 comes out, it annoys me to no end. Whether the question's badly formed or the sampling is totally
00:16:06.660 off, I hate it. Like I hate whenever pollsters, and again, all these pollsters genuinely are trying
00:16:12.660 to be accurate. Even Frank Greggs is trying to be accurate because the whole point is they do this free
00:16:16.740 polling. They don't get paid at all for this polling. They do free polling on politics in
00:16:21.300 order to attract businesses to hire them to do their market research. I would never hire ECOS based
00:16:26.900 on how badly they do these things. But a lot of pollsters have a very urban liberal bias because
00:16:31.780 if they're doing phone polls or other sorts of IVR polls, when you phone up a farmer in Western Canada,
00:16:38.180 he's not going to pick up a phone in the middle of his workday to answer a 20 minute survey on politics.
00:16:44.180 A public sector union worker working downtown Vancouver will 100% pick up the phone because
00:16:49.220 they're not doing anything. They can take a poll at any time of day, where conservatives tend to be
00:16:53.780 more disproportionately represented in trades, small business ownership, the type of people who do not
00:16:59.300 want to waste their time with some pollster on the phone. So that's where you have to kind of look at
00:17:03.860 polls, sometimes with a grain of salt, whenever it's showing like a massive swing in favor of the NDP,
00:17:09.700 in or like the NDP is majorly ahead in British Columbia, despite the fact that everyone thinks
00:17:14.660 the NDP is failing on the issues. It's because there's a lot of voters that end up being contacted
00:17:19.620 in downtown Vancouver, and it makes the rest of the province look far more orange than it really is.
00:17:24.980 Oh, okay. Well, that turned into a very long rant about polling. I am so sorry, everyone.
00:17:29.300 Anyways, so as I said before, if you live in Calgary Signal Hill, check out my website,
00:17:34.100 wyatclaypool.com, buy a federal conservative party membership to vote for me. And you can also
00:17:38.580 donate to the TNT Legal Fund in the Give, Send, Go link in the description below. And then there is
00:17:45.860 the TNT Telegram channel linked there as well, if you want to subscribe to that to get all of the new
00:17:51.220 videos that we released just sent right to you, rather than having to rely on YouTube notifying
00:17:56.740 you whenever we put out a new piece of content. Anyways, that should be it for me, guys. Have a good one.
