Summary

It's been fun watching the increasing desperation of the political left in Canada in the face of the growing popularity of Pure Pure and the Conservative Party, and I think simply put, the reason why Conservative Party is becoming so popular is because they're actually talking about issues that Canadians care about, and in a coherent manner that actually makes Canadians feel like those problems can be solved. Whereas the political Left is basically out in la-la land, still talking about social justice, climate action, and whenever they do touch on a serious issue, it's sort of the same generic platitudes they've always been offering with no real substantive plan that will work, or at least hasn't been already tried and failed before. And this is where the Liberal Party and the media cannot get a good angle to attack Pure Pure Pure, so they're increasingly sweaty and desperate trying to find an angle that will actually hurt Pure Pure of the Conservatives.

00:00:00.440 It's been a lot of fun watching the increasing desperation of the political left in Canada in the face of the growing popularity of pure poly and the Conservative Party.
00:00:08.220 And I think simply put, the reason why the Conservative Party is becoming so popular is because they're actually talking about issues that Canadians care about.
00:00:15.040 And they're actually talking about those issues in a coherent manner that actually makes Canadians feel like those problems tend to be solved.
00:00:21.920 Whereas the political left is basically out in la-la land, still talking about social justice, climate action, and whenever they do touch on a serious issue, it's sort of the same generic platitudes they've always been offering with no real substantive plan that will work or at least hasn't been already tried and failed before.
00:00:39.000 And this is where I think the Liberal Party and the media cannot get a good angle to attack pure poly of on.
00:00:44.400 So they're increasingly sweaty and desperate trying to find something or just some angle or some narrative that will actually hurt pure poly of the Conservatives.
00:00:52.660 And they're not just not finding it because they're disconnected from what Canadians care about.
00:00:56.600 So the first story here from the Globe and Mail I just want to highlight because it's just so ridiculous and I highlight this point perfectly.
00:01:02.860 This is the opinion article that the editorial board put out because for some reason major Canadian papers need like six people to write an article or at least the author won't actually put their name to it.
00:01:12.120 But the Globe and Mail said, pure poly of Conservatives still don't have a viable climate plan.
00:01:18.140 And in response to this article, because you don't even need to read it, who cares?
00:01:21.740 My response to this article is nobody gives a crap.
00:01:25.020 Nobody actually cares.
00:01:26.320 When you're having problems actually buying your kids' school supplies, when you're having problems buying food and you have to lower the quality of food that you're purchasing to be able to make sure your dollar goes farther,
00:01:36.560 when you cannot afford the house that you live in or you can't even find a house that's even available in your city,
00:01:42.900 you really don't care if the Conservative Party has their own version of the carbon tax.
00:01:47.560 If anything, you're very happy they don't care about it because you want them to care about serious issues that actually matter to your day-to-day life.
00:01:55.580 To a lot of people, whenever the Liberals and the NDP come out with their climate plan,
00:02:00.300 all they hear is they don't actually care about their economic struggles.
00:02:03.820 Really, a lot of these climate issues, at the end of the day, are issues for upper-middle-class people.
00:02:10.000 You have a million dollars in the bank.
00:02:11.720 You have millions of dollars in the bank.
00:02:13.220 So you don't have to care if the carbon tax is going to cost you anything,
00:02:16.380 if phasing out coal on the grid is going to make your power bulls higher,
00:02:21.080 or if they're going to try and phase out gas cars and you're going to have to buy an EV because you can afford all that.
00:02:25.700 You are allowed to have all these fashionable beliefs because you can afford these fashionable beliefs.
00:02:32.020 It's silly.
00:02:32.860 But even the Liberal Party is stupid enough to go along with this narrative being promulgated from the Globe and Mail.
00:02:38.320 They tweeted out, Canadians know that real climate action is needed now.
00:02:42.160 And for one, no, they don't.
00:02:43.700 They don't care if the real climate change is needed, or climate change action is needed.
00:02:47.340 They just want to be able to afford all the daily costs.
00:02:50.620 Anyways, moving on.
00:02:51.840 They said, well, pure poly have refused to put forward a climate plan.
00:02:55.080 We're protecting more of our nation and cutting pollution, securing new investment and jobs, and putting more money back in your pocket.
00:03:00.900 Like, no, they're not.
00:03:02.820 And for one thing, this tweet already contradicts itself.
00:03:05.660 It's not very long.
00:03:06.660 It somehow contradicts itself.
00:03:08.360 How are you putting money back in people's pockets, but you're also making people pay for pollution, and you're trying to take climate action?
00:03:15.080 If somehow people are benefiting financially from your climate plans, doesn't that mean you're not actually solving the problem that you're aiming at?
00:03:22.140 This is the self-defeating nature of the carbon tax.
00:03:24.460 Like, one, the carbon tax actually does cost everyone way more than they get back in benefits, even if you get the maximum benefit back.
00:03:31.040 But even then, let's just assume that people who are receiving the benefits are actually making money off of it.
00:03:36.280 Well, what have you actually done?
00:03:38.420 You know, those people are still going to, like, pump gas into their car.
00:03:41.440 You know, gasoline is an inelastic good.
00:03:43.280 Nobody has been dissuaded from using energy.
00:03:45.960 You've just had to incur a cost on a good that they will buy anyways because it is needed for them to live day to day.
00:03:52.960 It's silly, but whatever.
00:03:54.620 But moving on to a different issue, the Liberal Party also put out this tweet on affordability.
00:03:59.640 They said,
00:03:59.940 Pure Poly said he put people first, yet he voted against vital measures to make life more affordable.
00:04:04.960 The Canadian child benefit $10 day care and 10% old age security dental care for uninsured Canadians.
00:04:13.920 Oh, sorry, I can't read.
00:04:15.120 Just to name a few.
00:04:16.720 And it's like, this is so silly also whenever they think that Canadians are going to care about a voting record of an MP.
00:04:23.740 People do not look closely enough.
00:04:25.280 And the reason why PolyEv does not vote for those things is because they're subsidy programs.
00:04:30.500 You're not actually making life more affordable.
00:04:32.520 You're just printing money and handing money out to some of the people living in the lower middle class, assuming that it's going to maybe help them make it to next year.
00:04:40.840 And if it does, they're going to need a bigger check because you've inflated the prices of everything.
00:04:46.460 So that check that you gave them this year isn't actually not enough to cover the expenses that they have this next year.
00:04:52.500 So it's completely self-defeating.
00:04:54.380 And again, I think people have already lived through eight years of the Liberals and realized it doesn't matter how much money the government pumps into the economy.
00:05:01.700 Eventually, production actually has to go up for people's lives to be better.
00:05:05.740 You cannot have a country where you have 500,000 new immigrants being added every year with production not going up and assuming everyone's going to be prosperous.
00:05:13.940 This is where despite the Liberals pointing to GDP as their metric of success for the economy, when you look at GDP per capita, we've been going down for about eight years while the Liberals have been in power.
00:05:25.400 Because when you have people being added to the country and the population is going up and GDP is not going up to match it, obviously everyone on aggregate is becoming poorer over time.
00:05:35.700 So I don't think that this attack works at all for the Liberals, but this is what they're doing.
00:05:39.980 But now when we jump ahead to the Conservative Party convention, which is currently taking place in Quebec City, even the media, when they're just trying to supposedly do neutral reports on this convention, are still trying to levy attacks to the Conservative Party.
00:05:52.960 So there's this other headline also from the Globe and Mail, which is not surprising, but I've seen other ones from, you know, the Toronto Star and the CBC as well, where they're saying Conservatives to vote on controversial issues at Paulio's first policy convention as leader.
00:06:06.400 And it's this kind of conspiracy theory type coverage, which I call this is because the Liberal media basically every single time they're covering the Conservatives, they put all these vague notions of that maybe there's something darker up, you know, maybe the Conservatives are going to take away your health care, maybe they're doing something a little controversial behind the scenes.
00:06:22.780 But when you read the article and you actually read the details of what's supposedly controversial, it's not controversial at all.
00:06:28.940 But the media is trying to put all this boilerplate out and poison the well to make you think that the Conservative Party is teetering on the brink of being too controversial to vote for.
00:06:37.700 This is exactly what, you know, the CBC put out.
00:06:40.360 That's why I said teetering.
00:06:42.040 It's because they said pure poly is going to have to ride a walk, a tightrope at this convention.
00:06:47.460 It was some sort of commentary audio piece.
00:06:49.360 They really had no interest in listening to, you know, I already have to pay for the CBC.
00:06:55.020 I don't want to actually have to consume too much of its content.
00:06:57.980 But again, it's all this big notion that the Conservative Party is like, you know, somehow potentially going to fall off their tightrope and they're going to turn into a far right neo-Nazi party.
00:07:08.500 That's all of the media's sort of implications to their coverage.
00:07:12.380 But I don't think people actually care because I think they know where PR poly of and the Conservative Party comes from.
00:07:17.560 And it comes from a position that is eminently agreeable.
00:07:20.680 So that article that the Globe and Mail that I'm going to throw it back on screen, that article from the Globe and Mail, what they consider controversial was a few AGM policy items about protecting single sex spaces,
00:07:32.720 is really just protecting spaces meant for women from men being able to come in, which is just something that the vast majority of Canadians agree with,
00:07:39.800 as well as potentially voting to ban sex change operations for minors.
00:07:44.560 Something that you would be hard pressed to find someone who disagrees with outside of downtown Vancouver or Montreal or Toronto.
00:07:53.000 And I mean, like, really downtown, not in the city of Toronto, like squarely in the centre.
00:07:58.580 And even there, it might be a little bit hard to find people who would oppose a piece of legislation like that, especially parents who really care about protecting their kids.
00:08:06.560 This is why the parental rights issue in Canada has become so big, because there's a lot of parents who happen to care about their children.
00:08:13.840 And they don't like when liberals come out of the woodwork trying to be able to say what they can and cannot do,
00:08:19.580 when they like, in terms of like being able to monitor their kids and oversee their kids at school.
00:08:23.680 They don't like liberals saying what they can and cannot be privy to in their own child's life.
00:08:28.180 But whatever, that's what the liberal media and the liberal party thinks that you're going to be, you know, blown away with.
00:08:33.680 You're going to think, oh, no, too much.
00:08:35.800 Justin Trudeau was way too extreme.
00:08:37.380 I mean, not Justin Trudeau, blah.
00:08:39.260 Pure politics is way too extreme.
00:08:40.380 I have to vote for Justin Trudeau and, you know, protect Canada from a far right invasion.
00:08:45.540 Nobody can even believe it.
00:08:46.860 And it just demonstrates how desperate the liberal media is.
00:08:50.000 They just have no good attacks left.
00:08:52.340 But to end this video off with one more news story, because it's close to my heart,
00:08:57.420 I got to cover a couple of things that press progress said, both about Pierre Polyev and about a new conservative MP.
00:09:03.320 So they're trying to hit conservative party leader, Pierre Polyev, right now on the stupid notion that somehow because CEOs and rich people donate to the conservative party, he's somehow not credible on issues.
00:09:15.180 So the press progress is tweet about their story.
00:09:17.800 And I don't really care to read their stories because it's effectively the stories in the headline.
00:09:21.440 And then the actual story is just nonsense detail.
00:09:25.040 But they said, Pierre Polyev is painting himself as the solution to Canada's affordability crisis.
00:09:29.460 But donation records show Polyev conservatives have enjoyed support from CEOs at big real estate investment trusts who are driving up costs of living.
00:09:36.040 Okay, one, is it controversial that CEOs of like companies or rich people donate to you?
00:09:42.960 Not at all.
00:09:44.060 Two, is it the real estate developers or real estate agencies that are driving up costs?
00:09:50.860 Or is it the fact that local governments, provincial governments, as well as the federal government is rising, is basically restricting the ability to build houses,
00:10:00.040 while at the same time the federal government is increasing immigration numbers to an unreasonable level?
00:10:06.040 Obviously, it's because of the government policy and forcing artificial demand onto the market.
00:10:11.820 Supply, like these real estate development companies, they are most incentivized to build more.
00:10:17.800 Because if they build more, they get to sell more.
00:10:20.280 The only reason that prices are going up is because the supply has been restricted.
00:10:24.740 And of course, these firms are still going to try and make as much money as possible on the restricted supply as they can.
00:10:30.080 But because press progress is so hard left wing, they can't see this as something.
00:10:35.020 Like they do never, they never see the government as the problem.
00:10:37.240 They only ever see the government as a solution.
00:10:39.300 Now, I just want to move on to this other story that they wrote on a new conservative MP, Mr. Shuv Majumdar from Calgary Heritage.
00:10:47.200 Or I said, I guess, Shavloy Majumdar.
00:10:48.900 I always like to say his full name, even though everyone calls him Shuv.
00:10:51.560 But they wrote this article on the new MP, Shuv Majumdar in Calgary Heritage.
00:10:56.260 And they call him, he's the right-hand man.
00:10:59.360 He's like Harper's right-hand man, an international neocon operative.
00:11:03.360 Just this nonsense, left-wing, tanky kind of framing of an issue to try and pretend that everyone who wants a little bit of muscle on Canada's foreign policy,
00:11:12.720 that somehow they must be nefarious neocons trying to ruin the world, that they're war mongers and militant or whatever.
00:11:21.040 When really Canada, during Trudeau's tenure, has been so weak and pathetic that we basically apologize to Iran when they kill a bunch of our own citizens after a missile was launched at an airline with a bunch of Canadians on it.
00:11:35.160 Canada has an incredibly weak foreign policy right now.
00:11:38.640 The fact that we bowed to China after they basically started arresting our own diplomats is insane.
00:11:45.080 But whatever, this is just what we have in Canada right now.
00:11:47.560 But the reason I'm highlighting this article from Press Progress, this analysis article, it was three weeks ago, but I just noticed it now,
00:11:54.980 is because in this article, the author, Steve Magusiak, basically tries to imply that Shuv might be somehow bigoted.
00:12:03.140 That because he thinks that the BJP party run by Modi in India is actually a fairly decent thing for Indian politics,
00:12:10.640 that it's actually a breath of fresh air after, you know, almost endless rule by the Congress party and thinking and him, you know,
00:12:18.060 ridiculously thinking that Pakistan might be funding and creating the Kalistani movement in Punjab, which is just eminently true.
00:12:25.920 It's not even a theory that they try to assert, like they try to insert as a theory.
00:12:29.380 It's not a theory at all.
00:12:30.200 It's just frankly true.
00:12:31.820 The Pakistani government has very clear ties towards funding the Sikh separatist movement in the Punjab region,
00:12:37.080 which has resulted in thousands of people being killed.
00:12:40.000 That somehow makes Shuv bad.
00:12:42.240 But I just want to quickly bring up this one article that I wrote back in 2020.
00:12:46.300 It's been a very long time, but I knew this article was going to come in handy
00:12:49.700 because I wrote this article highlighting the far left hypocrisy of press progress,
00:12:54.540 which is effectively an NDP front group.
00:12:56.560 It's funded by the Broadbent Institute, which is very pro-NDP.
00:13:00.380 And I remember Steve Magusiak's name.
00:13:02.900 So I pulled up this old article because while Steve Magusiak is trying to basically hit Shuvmajumdar
00:13:09.100 for supposedly maybe being bigoted or somehow far right because he supports like a nationalistic Indian government,
00:13:16.720 not when I say nationalistic, I don't mean like in a hyper-nationalistic way,
00:13:19.800 but, you know, doesn't exactly, has a little bit more of a muscular position against Pakistan
00:13:25.160 and against, you know, terrorism, both by communist Naxalites, as well as Kalistanis in India.
00:13:31.020 That somehow makes him bad.
00:13:32.600 But I just want to show these tweets that I saved back when I wrote these articles that Steve Magusiak retweeted.
00:13:37.640 He just said that, he literally tweeted at this point, at one point,
00:13:42.020 I just want working class people to hate capitalism as much as it hates them.
00:13:46.800 So that one's not too bad, just more socialist nonsense.
00:13:49.800 But he has this other one he retweeted that says,
00:13:52.380 feeling like remembering those who fought for freedom, question mark?
00:13:55.400 Forget remembrance day.
00:13:56.700 Instead, remember the brave Bolsheviks who seized power in Russia 103 years ago today.
00:14:01.920 Wow, isn't that fun?
00:14:03.180 So, you know, who gives a crap about veterans?
00:14:05.800 Let's support the Bolsheviks who killed millions of people in Russia in a communist revolution
00:14:11.180 and oppress those people until the Soviet Union fell in the 1990s
00:14:15.080 and really still presses them today through the legacy of the corrupt authoritarian state
00:14:21.040 that's in Putin's regime right now.
00:14:22.880 And here's another tweet that's from him, which says,
00:14:26.240 I wish President Xi eternal good fortune in his continuing battle with the Occidental beast.
00:14:32.280 And so if you don't know what the word Occidental means, it means Western.
00:14:35.840 So he is hoping, he is giving internal good, sorry, what is that word again?
00:14:42.700 Internal good fortune to President Xi Jinping in China in his fight with the Western beast,
00:14:49.500 implying the United States, Canada, and the rest of the Western world.
00:14:53.480 So Steve Magusiak is literally pro-China and anti-Western based on his own tweet history.
00:14:58.800 And Steve Magusiak is a complete coward.
00:15:00.780 He basically deletes all of his tweets every like two months or so.
00:15:04.880 He like completely wipes the slate clean.
00:15:06.900 If you ever scroll through his Twitter, eventually it goes blank,
00:15:09.560 which is why when I was researching press progress back in the day,
00:15:12.420 I screenshot all their stuff and I confronted with them with it.
00:15:15.380 And of course, they ended up just blocking me and running away.
00:15:18.120 Even the anti-hate network, which really all they care about is,
00:15:22.620 all they are really is a big smear operation.
00:15:25.500 But they even blocked me when I pointed out that they should stop amplifying press progress
00:15:29.520 because they were like, you know, not only supporting communism and violent revolution,
00:15:34.500 but some of their other reporters, I didn't go over in this article,
00:15:37.400 were also, sorry, I do go over in the article.
00:15:39.420 I just didn't scroll over to those sections.
00:15:41.380 They were supporting violence and other sorts of like aggressive action against conservatives.
00:15:47.460 They do not actually care about hatred, but whatever.
00:15:49.960 But that's the kind of nonsense that you have out of these left-wing sort of like,
00:15:54.040 I guess, like anti-hatred, anti-extremism kind of publications,
00:15:59.020 it's effectively just hypocrisy that they'll call you out for something that you didn't even do
00:16:03.900 when they're literally more guilty of it themselves.
00:16:06.660 But this video is running a bit long,
00:16:08.920 but I'll make sure to link that article on press progress in the description below.
00:16:12.860 Use it to your heart's content, you know,
00:16:15.280 post it underneath everything that press progress posts on Twitter because it would be funny.
00:16:19.360 Also, I have my give, send, go in the description of this video below.
00:16:23.520 I'm being sued by a Chinese billionaire.
00:16:25.500 It's a stupid defamation suit.
00:16:27.180 I'm winning it because he has no case, but I have my give, send, go there.
00:16:30.580 If you want to contribute a dollar or two to my legal defense, it just helps me out.
00:16:35.360 I've had to pay over $15,000 trying to defend myself so far.
00:16:39.540 So just any amount of money makes the actual burden a little bit easier on me.
00:16:44.120 And then I also have a link down there for the TNT email list.
00:16:48.040 Sign up for the TNT email list if you're in the Calgary area
00:16:51.320 and you want to go to the Ben Shapiro event happening in Southwest Calgary in November of this year.
00:16:58.020 It's November 16th.
00:16:59.200 The tickets go live on September 14th,
00:17:01.400 but TNT and some other organizations are allowed to put out some early bird ticket codes.
00:17:05.920 So if you're on the TNT email list,
00:17:07.520 you will be getting one of those ticket codes so you can buy tickets prior to the 14th.
00:17:11.880 That should be it for today.
00:17:13.200 I'm happy to be in my normal studio.
00:17:15.180 This video is a little bit longer in length,
00:17:17.440 so hopefully I didn't mumble too much as it went on.
00:17:20.240 I start off really strong and then my mouth starts getting more cottony as things go on.
00:17:24.720 But I think this was at least fairly successful for such a long video.
00:17:28.660 Have a great day.
00:17:29.120 Bye.
00:17:30.280 Bye.
00:17:32.360 Bye.
00:17:32.560 Bye.
00:17:32.920 Bye.
00:17:34.020 Bye.
