In this episode, I talk about why the legacy media is responsible for ruining Justin Trudeau's chances of re-election in the next election, and why he should have been worried about losing to someone other than Pierre Polyvenc
00:00:00.000I think that the top reason why Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is going to lose to Pierre Polyev in 2025 is that Justin Trudeau's biggest political asset is no longer delivering for him anymore.
00:00:11.460And if anything, they're actually hurting him, not intentionally, but unintentionally, because they just happen to suck at their jobs as much as Justin Trudeau sucks at his.
00:00:20.380And of course, I'm talking about the liberal legacy media.
00:00:24.200Usually, Justin Trudeau, in all the previous elections, was up against a Conservative Party leader who was willing to accept the attacks from the legacy media.
00:00:32.780If they said, well, why is your party so full of radicals?
00:00:48.300I don't like Aaron O'Toole, but whenever they accused Aaron O'Toole of this radical stuff, I was rolling my eyes because Aaron O'Toole is the most milquetoast, basically a liberal politician you'll ever find in the Conservative Party.
00:01:01.420Yet he would accept every single attack they made of him.
00:01:04.040And the great thing with Peter Polyev at the head of the Conservative Party is he doesn't buy any of their garbage.
00:01:09.860And this is what used to undermine Conservatives, is when they would undermine themselves in the face of a rabid media who's out to make the Conservatives look like the unstable option compared to the stability of Justin Trudeau.
00:01:22.560Because, yes, Justin Trudeau might suck at his job, but at least he sucks at his job the same way every day, whereas they'd make the Conservatives out to be radicals who are out to get certain people.
00:01:39.520And I have criticisms of Danielle Smith as a Conservative.
00:01:42.980But all the criticisms that came from the left were, like, non-criticisms.
00:01:47.420They're almost like conspiracy theories, where it's like, Daniel Smith's up to something.
00:01:51.700We can't tell you what, but she's up to something.
00:01:53.960Same thing that they did with what they did with Erin O'Toole, Andrew Scheer, Stephen Harper.
00:01:59.100It's all this idea that they're shadowy and you don't know what they're going to do.
00:02:02.440But what Pierre Polyev does that's quite amazing, like you're going to see in this video that went viral, is he doesn't accept the media's premises every single time they ask smear questions.
00:02:12.820The answers to these questions do not matter.
00:02:15.080It's just about getting that smear in front of that politician and then having them answer it.
00:02:19.740If you answer, you lose because you are giving legitimacy to the question being asked in the first place.
00:02:25.600If you don't play the game, you don't win the stupid prize that comes with it.
00:02:29.400Anyways, here's the clip that went viral.
00:02:32.000Even American Conservative outlets were sharing this video because this is a masterclass in how you deal with dishonest media members.
00:02:39.700On the topic, I mean, in terms of your sort of strategy currently, you're obviously taking the populist pathway.
00:03:34.260I'm sure there's some out there, but anyways, the point of this question is, I mean, why should Canadians trust you with their vote, given...
00:03:44.640And then the guy finally gets to a real question.
00:03:47.560I don't even care what outlets the guy's from.
00:03:49.340That's pretty much the sort of treatment that a conservative is expected to get from Global, CTV, CBC, the Toronto Star, definitely, and all those legacy media, government-subsidized outlets.
00:04:00.280But the great thing that Pierre Polyev does there is he does not accept the premise of the question.
00:04:05.900As soon as he's saying, you use populist language, like what language?
00:04:09.840Well, some people say that you're taking a page out of Donald Trump's playbook.
00:04:13.840And the guy has nothing, and it's because the legacy media is so used to weak conservatives that his initial question by Aaron O'Toole would have just been accepted.
00:04:24.140He would have said, well, I'll work hard to make sure that people know that I'm not just, I'm not a populist.
00:04:29.300I'm straight down the middle, I'm a Canadian at heart, I'm true north, that's who I am.
00:04:35.100Just, I even love the nonchalance of Pierre Polyev, just eating an apple while this putz just sort of figures out an angle of attack on him.
00:04:42.600And eventually, after they all run out, he has to ask him a real question.
00:04:46.240Because, like, remember this, the legacy media will always phrase it in a legitimate question in the end, but the initial setup to the question is meant to make Canadians hate you.
00:04:56.720So he eventually does get to why should Canadians trust you to be prime minister?
00:05:01.360It's actually a very good question to ask any politician, allows them to be able to answer what their critics might be thinking of them without making it an attack.
00:05:10.640They can take that question in any direction they want, and that's what a good interviewer should do if you do not have a specific, well-evident accusation to make against them.
00:05:19.740That's exactly what you should be doing as a journalist.
00:05:22.080And I guarantee you, independent media does actual questions to NDP, liberal, green politicians all the time.
00:05:29.560I'm an independent media, ugh, sorry, I'm being all marble-mouthed right now.
00:05:34.540But whenever I've been at press conferences or at different AGM events or anything like that, whenever I'm around reporters from Rebel, True North, Western Standard, all those other outlets, the post-millennial, they actually, we actually do ask real questions.
00:05:47.040If we have a problem with an NDP politician, we will say, you posted this about communism and how much you love it.
00:05:52.800What do you say to voters who have concerns about that?
00:05:56.400It's just like, I think it was, what's his name?
00:05:58.780I want to, I feel so bad now I'm forgetting what his name is.
00:06:01.860Lincoln Jay from Rebel News did a fantastic walking interview with Omar Al-Ghabra where he just said that, can you condemn Hamas?
00:06:08.180Because, of course, this is not an illegitimate question.
00:06:11.560Omar Al-Ghabra has a history of saying that Hamas and Hezbollah should be removed from Canada's terrorism watch list or terrorism blacklist.
00:06:18.880He has a history of saying in 2011 that Israel should negotiate with Hamas, a terrorist group.
00:06:23.680He is not exactly consistent on this issue.
00:06:26.480And he's the type of guy who should have to answer whether or not he condemns Hamas.
00:06:49.040He's too socialistic by far for me, but he's not a communist.
00:06:52.500So I would never say, well, some people say that you take a page out of Mao Zedong's playbook.
00:06:58.060Even though he actually has grace China.
00:07:00.380Frankly, this question that I'm hypothetically making up as a ridiculous question of Trudeau,
00:07:04.240is not feeling as ridiculous as I go on here.
00:07:06.720But that just shows you the state of Canada right now.
00:07:09.420But that is why Trudeau is losing to Pierre Polyev.
00:07:13.120His biggest asset, the legacy media, who spends billions of dollars a year reporting in a left-wing slanted direction.
00:07:20.700It's not paying dividends to him anymore because every time Pierre Polyev appears on the news,
00:07:25.760every chance the legacy media has to smear him, they just make him look better.
00:07:29.660And frankly, after the pandemic, most Canadians do not like the legacy media.
00:07:33.640That vaccinated, unvaccinated, pro-lockdown, anti-lockdown, everyone just kind of realizes that the legacy media is just not good at their jobs.
00:07:41.920They don't show both sides of the debate.
00:07:44.260And they're always trying to push you towards a certain direction.
00:07:46.900Even people who were initially pro-lockdown would have been fairly disgusted by the fact that the Toronto Star is taxpayer-subsidized.
00:07:54.360And they're legitimately talking about unvaccinated people, leaving them to die on front pages of their newspaper.
00:08:00.720Anyways, but this is where I just want to quickly bring up this poll that came up from polling, that was posted by Polling Canada on Twitter,
00:08:08.640X, I guess, by Nanos Research, that now shows that Pierre Polyev is a 10% lead on Trudeau for preferred prime minister.
00:08:15.400That is very big because with Pierre Polyev being ahead of him, that basically means that people have effectively, decisively chosen Pierre Polyev and the Conservatives for next election.
00:08:25.140Because opposition leaders very, very rarely lead the prime minister in polling because opposition leaders, just because there's not a lot of money in covering politics in Canada,
00:08:33.800people don't really even know who the opposition leaders are unless they've been around for a very long time, like Jagmeet Singh has been through a few news cycles.
00:08:40.120Pierre Polyev has not been through an election cycle as a party leader yet.
00:08:44.020So there's going to be like about 30 to 40% of people who will not know who he is until the writ drops.
00:08:49.640So the fact that he has a 10% lead over Justin Trudeau, who has a probably 99 to 100% name recognition rate, is pathetic for Justin Trudeau.
00:08:59.600I also just want to quickly pause here.
00:09:01.580I don't want to be a shill for myself too much, but I do have a legal fundraiser I have linked in the description of this video below.
00:09:07.260I have a Chinese billionaire suing me for nonsense.
00:09:10.320I'm currently winning, but obviously he has a lot of money to throw at me and cause me a lot of legal expenses.
00:09:15.800So I have a give, send, go link in the description of this video.
00:09:18.280Give me a few dollars and that'd be fantastic.
00:09:20.160Don't have to do it, but you can to be a great person.
