The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Liberal MP Calls Statistics Canada Data 'Fake News' – Epic Self-Own

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.

00:00:06.300 I so often find the most ridiculous and funny content on the CBC,

00:00:11.760 because that's where Mark Carney liberals feel the most comfortable. 0.76

00:00:15.600 They feel like they are going to get the least amount of pushback, 0.98

00:00:19.320 meaning that they end up saying the dumbest things humanly possible. 0.83

00:00:23.440 I need to show you an interview on the CBC with liberal house leader Steve McKinnon, 0.83

00:00:28.740 where he literally just denies his own liberal government's economic data and he gets away with

00:00:35.460 it in hilarious fashion. But before I get into the segment, I just want to quickly remind you guys,

00:00:42.080 if you like the show, make sure to leave a like on the video, subscribe if you're not yet a

00:00:45.640 subscriber, and hit the join button and become a channel member if you want to help make the

00:00:49.760 channel more sustainable and allow me to be less reliant on the terrible YouTube algorithm.

00:00:54.880 But let's not waste any more time.

00:00:56.880 Let's get into this CBC interview.

00:00:59.220 One day ahead of schedule, members of Parliament agreed to break for the summer,

00:01:03.040 but not before unanimously approving a motion that advances several bills through the parliamentary process.

00:01:09.100 Bill C-22, Canada's controversial lawful access bill, is among the legislation approved by the House of Commons.

00:01:15.920 Government House Leader Stephen McKinnon joins me now.

00:01:18.320 Nice to see you, Minister. Thanks for coming on.

00:01:20.060 Thanks so much for having me.

00:01:21.100 So Conservative leader Pierre Polyev said today that this sitting has produced few concrete results for Canadians.

00:01:27.340 He says unemployment is the second highest in the G7.

00:01:30.420 Many young people in particular are struggling to find work.

00:01:33.220 There's been negative economic growth in three of the last four quarters.

00:01:36.940 Food inflation is high.

00:01:38.180 What is your defense?

00:01:39.020 What do you say to your critics?

00:01:40.800 Well, first of all, not all of those figures are accurate.

00:01:45.660 Which ones are not accurate?

00:01:47.120 though that is statistics canada data which one isn't let's go back to what the host said

00:01:54.000 and we'll take it point by point three of the last four core ticks for canadians he says

00:01:58.240 unemployment is the second highest in the g7 many fact check true that is true i will bring it up

00:02:04.980 on google right now so you can see the current list japan's unemployment rate ranges between

00:02:10.840 2.3% 2.5% Germany 3.7 to 6.3 United States 4.2 to 4.3 UK 4.7 to 5.5 Italy 6.0 to 6.4 Canada 6.5 to 7.1

00:02:24.740 and France 7.5 to 7.9 that is true we are the second highest in the G7 just a little bit behind

00:02:32.360 France who is absolutely abysmal right now okay so let's move on to the next point there wasn't

00:02:39.320 even that many points. It's not like he shotgunned out a bunch of points where you could have maybe

00:02:44.000 assumed that Steve McKinnon meant like, you know, if the host rattled off like 10 points, he could

00:02:49.300 say, yeah, maybe one or two of those. If you really squint, you could see how maybe it's not quite

00:02:53.560 accurate. He listed three really just basic like stats about the Canadian economy. Next one.

00:03:02.080 Young people in particular are struggling to find work.

00:03:04.820 And that's true as well. Our youth unemployment rate is like above 10%. It's like 12% or like 14% or 15% for college-age men. It's absolutely abysmal, but we don't need to get into that one.

00:03:16.440 It's been negative economic growth in three of the last four quarters. Food inflation is high.

00:03:21.240 Yes, that is all true. Let's just look up food inflation in Canada. Food inflation in Canada, I'm just using just basic AI searches because if anything, that's going to be the best search because this is the most generic information you can find.

00:03:37.800 Food inflation in Canada hovered near 3.8 to 4.4 percent year over year. That is absolutely abysmal

00:03:45.900 at the same time our actual GDP is shrinking. Is it shrinking by much? Well, no. It's shrinking by

00:03:54.460 like 0.1 or 0.2 percent. But we shouldn't be shrinking. We should be growing. And they'll say,

00:04:01.820 well, it's because immigration is going down. Okay, so we have revealed that the economy has

00:04:06.380 always been in a recession, but simply importing people in the country has kept the GDP number

00:04:11.560 slowly climbing up a little bit. If we're only going up, if we were previously only going up by

00:04:17.280 like one or one and a half percent in previous years, because we were importing hundreds of

00:04:21.860 thousands of people, that is a terrible economy. And I would even need to fact check the other one

00:04:27.680 about the last three quarters or out of the last four quarters, we've had three of them have been

00:04:32.080 negative in terms of GDP growth. That is just a basic fact at this point. But the liberals,

00:04:37.300 people like Steve McKinnon, simply hand wave them away and say, well, we're not in a real

00:04:41.800 recession. They won't even say technical recession because they know that looks bad.

00:04:46.180 They just pretend that, oh, it's just stagnant growth. Oh, we're in a transitionary period.

00:04:50.900 So there were three claims made, and all three of them were absolutely correct. There was nothing

00:04:55.760 that Steve McKinnon could dispute there. What is your defense? What do you say to your critics?

00:05:01.280 well he's first of all uh not all of those uh figures are accurate what do you mean all those

00:05:07.200 figures are accurate by the way our current unemployment is only 6.6 right now because of

00:05:12.720 the census because of fifa because of the summer jobs boost yes every country gets a summer jobs

00:05:18.880 boost pretty much but you're getting my point here we are this is an artificial low period right now

00:05:24.480 for us, 6.6%, more than 2% higher unemployment rate than the United States right next to us.

00:05:31.660 2% higher, more than 2% actually. And that's on top of the fact that we have our census going on

00:05:37.180 right now that's massively employing a bunch of people in the public sector. We have FIFA going

00:05:42.820 on, which you could say, well, America has it too. Yes, but per capita, FIFA helps Canada more than

00:05:48.600 helps the United States because Canada, Mexico, and the United States all get one stadium. They

00:05:54.360 all get a certain amount of games and naturally that's going to employ a higher rate of Canadians

00:05:59.720 and it's going to hire people in the United States because that's a country of 340 million people

00:06:04.720 and we're a country of 41 million people but let's keep moving on here so already terrible 0.90

00:06:10.720 interview for Steve McKinnon but he thinks the CBC crowd is dumb probably because there are

00:06:15.540 certain people who watch the CBC who just kind of want to hear a liberal say everything's great 0.88

00:06:19.940 they'll buy it but steve mckinnon is just openly lying because the cbc lets him get away with it

00:06:25.300 where is the cbc host by the way coming in to say which one of those is wrong that would be

00:06:30.820 if you ask that one question he'd be destroyed he wouldn't know what to say but he knows this

00:06:35.380 host will never ask second of all this is one of the most productive legislative sittings

00:06:40.500 in recent memory including many measures that are designed specifically to help

00:06:45.620 uh some of the people that he talks about when you think of the groceries and essentials benefit

00:06:50.440 when you think about reducing the gst on uh on homes for first time home buyers when you think

00:06:56.260 about reducing income taxes yes we did reduce income taxes notice how he had to repeat that

00:07:02.820 part yes we did reduce income taxes because did they really reduce income taxes now like kind of

00:07:10.640 they're going to be reducing income taxes by 1% on the first $50,000 that you make, which is

00:07:17.340 not where the bulk of taxes in this country are paid. Not even close. You don't even pay taxes.

00:07:23.280 I believe, what is the federal income tax exemption?

00:07:31.840 The federal income tax exemption, I believe it's like, I can't find it that way, but it's like $18,000.

00:07:38.520 So we are going to cut 1% off the income tax rate for the first $50,000, although no income taxes actually even apply the first $18,000.

00:07:48.680 So from $18,001 up to $50,000, where you only pay like 8% or 10% at the moment, we're going to bump that down to 9%.

00:07:58.280 It's like, big whoop.

00:08:00.000 And with the groceries essential benefit, it's like, okay, well, we've given the bottom 33% of income earners a GST rebate on 50% of the GST, basically, they would have normally paid at the grocery store. Okay, well, that's, you know, a few hundred dollars a year. Fair enough. I don't think any of those people are going to like, say that's bad. They'll take the money, obviously, they will.

00:08:21.260 it's still going to increase inflation. And at the same time, you could have just cut taxes more,

00:08:27.900 you could have just let people have more of their own money. And then he has to bring up again that

00:08:31.320 we cut taxes when it's actually not even a percent yet. It's half a percent. In a couple more years,

00:08:36.400 they will bump it up to 1%. But the amount of actual changes on affordability has been

00:08:44.120 absolutely terrible. They've GST exempted some new homes. That's good. Fair enough. That's good.

00:08:50.360 But this is so much cutting along the corners of problems rather than just dealing with the problem, which is kind of just out of step with the whole character that Mark Carney pretended to be when he was stepping into politics.

00:09:03.980 He was going to be the financial guru to get us back on track.

00:09:07.980 And so far, we're like way off track.

00:09:09.640 And he's like bumping us with a pencil slowly back towards the track.

00:09:13.920 And maybe in 15 years, we'll have an economy growing at 2% again.

00:09:18.920 maybe we won't have a deficit that's like 70 billion dollars a year and maybe we'll like yeah

00:09:26.240 maybe our debt to gdp won't be as bad it's so such a sad pathetic type of a pitch by the liberals

00:09:33.700 elect us and in 50 000 years things will be a little bit better and then when you consider that

00:09:41.220 mr polyev and his entire caucus voted against virtually all of that so it's always been

00:09:48.140 perplexing to me to hear Mr. Polyev evoke these themes and then systematically vote against some

00:09:57.340 of the remedies and solutions that are proposed to deal with the very problems he purports to

00:10:03.120 identify. Food inflation in many ways is because of government regulations, too much spending in

00:10:10.060 economy like inflationary spending and taxes and the liberals barely reduced taxes and then they

00:10:18.300 created programs that cost more money to give people some money back in order to fight inflation

00:10:24.940 which is really just going to spur on more inflation the conservatives vote against it

00:10:29.580 not because they want to help people but they want to help people the right way but it's always this

00:10:33.900 pathetic government speak and even conservatives do it when they're in government about oh if you

00:10:38.780 really cared about helping people you would be voting for everything we want you to vote for 0.81

00:10:43.740 well that's not how politics works and we're in a recession our food inflation is like the

00:10:48.860 worst in the g7 so what's your excuse how are you actually going to make this the opposite

00:10:54.940 next year where it's the best why is it aren't our why isn't our unemployment the best because

00:10:59.420 guess what it could be the best our unemployment could be like maybe not as good as japan it's

00:11:04.140 It's just a very homogenous country that has very low immigration. 0.98

00:11:07.880 So the amount of people and, you know, its population is going down.

00:11:10.980 So naturally, pretty much every job is filled.

00:11:12.800 But outside of Japan, we could be at 4% unemployment if we just slashed taxes and made the economy function again.

00:11:22.000 This is a very intriguing, bewildering part of the House of Commons and of the dialogue that we have every day.

00:11:31.120 you know when we get attacked with an unjustified trade war they say we're having a hissy fit when

00:11:38.360 the prime minister is looking to grow our no jamil giovanni said that we shouldn't have an

00:11:43.560 anti-american hissy fit in response to it because it's not helpful it doesn't get us anywhere which

00:11:49.600 is fact check true jamil giovanni is right now the liberals are acting like oh he's attacking

00:11:55.960 canadians for having a problem with tariffs jamil giovanni has a problem with tariffs his whole

00:12:00.380 point is that the liberal government sitting around and whining about tariffs does not actually

00:12:04.780 get us across the finish line to a deal. The liberals have been like systematically avoiding

00:12:09.040 any good moves when it comes to trade negotiations, gaining leverage by making our economy better,

00:12:14.340 cutting taxes and regulations to have more leverage. They're not actually getting to the

00:12:18.240 table and making any demands. They're not making any concessions. All they're doing is whining.

00:12:22.760 And you can say Trump put the tariffs in completely unjustly. I don't like the tariffs. I think they're

00:12:28.800 mostly unjustified yes we've had tariffs on them through supply management and whatnot for a very

00:12:34.980 long time but still not quite justified that could have been sorted out in its own negotiation

00:12:40.080 without the tariffs but it's a reality now that there's tariffs what are you going to do about it

00:12:44.560 because sitting around and just saying that they shouldn't exist isn't a solution our top line in

00:12:49.860 terms of opportunities and investment and major projects uh and new business investment you know

00:12:56.220 they say he's traveling too much um the the by the way our business investment is terrible

00:13:03.340 it is down since the beginning of the year 0.7 percent and some people again will always say oh

00:13:08.700 you're gonna you're gonna cry over spilled milk it's just 0.7 percent we should be growing the

00:13:13.820 fact that we are retracting is insane but the liberals keep saying we just brought in 50

00:13:17.660 billion more dollars into the economy but it's never true it's like some mou where they they

00:13:22.860 sign an agreement with Qatar or the UAE saying, you know, one day, maybe we'll think about

00:13:28.960 potentially giving $50 billion into your economy at some time in the future, or $50 billion and

00:13:34.640 even that worth that much. The thing is that the reality always rubs up against the propaganda.

00:13:41.320 And yet, Steve McKinnon had like the gall to come on. And when the host listed off

00:13:46.120 Pollyov's complaints about the economy, said all those figures are wrong. We have still

00:13:50.240 gotten radio silence from the host here saying, okay, well, you're value-hooing all of your

00:13:54.760 achievements, but our food inflation is 4.4%. Our unemployment has been ranging between 6.5%

00:14:03.480 and 7.1%. We did have three quarters of negative growth. So what do you say to that? He just let

00:14:09.920 Steve McKinnon get away with lying and then pretending like just the government handing

00:14:15.200 out money is like some massive win for the economy. The Conservatives have this bewildering

00:14:21.040 set of policies where they seem to be against every possible solution to some of the issues

00:14:27.460 that we face as a country. We think we're, and we're pretty confident that the issues that we've

00:14:33.700 proposed have found a deep resonance among Canadians. The Conservatives are opposed not

00:14:37.680 only to the content of your legislation, but also how you got it through in some instances. Let's

00:14:42.200 talk about the tactics the government used to push some of this legislation through the House

00:14:45.880 in this sitting. You relied on time allocation to shut down debate. By my count, I think the

00:14:50.920 government invoked it seven times in the last month. We heard from Green Party leader Elizabeth

00:14:55.920 May. She says that democracy is being disrespected. This is the worst she's seen from a government,

00:15:01.300 and she's been here a while. Do you think you've been too heavy-handed?

00:15:05.780 Well, first of all, I would question whether Ms. May actually believes that. Secondly,

00:15:10.400 well let me give you one example by the again where that wasn't even a bad question by the

00:15:15.500 host there but where's the host because i guarantee he's not going to step in and say

00:15:18.920 well who are you to say i don't think may actually believes that what a what a lame thing to say

00:15:25.060 during an interview somebody comes at you with an accusation that they think you are acting

00:15:29.840 in very anti-democratic authoritarian ways in order to hammer legislation through

00:15:34.920 in parliament not allowing for real debate to take place because you put like a very strict

00:15:39.320 time allocation on it where debate doesn't really go anywhere and then you immediately go to a vote

00:15:43.960 rather than actually having back and forth you know question and answer over new policies and

00:15:48.960 the person brings up all these issues and you're like I don't think they really believe that like

00:15:53.120 what an awful bad faith gaslighting way to just like dismiss all criticism next time Steve

00:15:59.520 McKinnon or Mark Carney say anything somebody should just be like oh I don't think they really

00:16:03.780 believe what they're saying which in a certain sense actually probably don't believe what they're

00:16:07.460 saying most of the time when they're making excuses for bad policies. But like, what a stupid 1.00

00:16:12.460 Weasley thing to do. Yeah, whatever. I don't think Steve McKinnon believe what you just said there. 1.00

00:16:19.320 Lawful access. He actually believes that. Secondly, well, let me give you one example.

00:16:24.400 Lawful access. An issue where Canada is the last country in the G7 to have a lawful access

00:16:31.180 regime we've we made three separate attempts three attempts to be accommodating to listen to

00:16:38.280 the variety of views but this is something that law enforcement tells us if we want to deal with

00:16:43.180 extortion if we want to deal with uh sexual exploit exploitation child pornography this is

00:16:50.040 an important thing to put in place support our law enforcement in that effort here's the thing

00:16:56.620 bill c22 there is a good part to bill c22 part one and there is a bad part to bill c22 or two

00:17:04.860 part one is effectively saying the police authorities have just caused to to basically

00:17:11.660 demand records of searches of you know emails and whatnot of individuals that they have credible

00:17:19.660 evidence that they already have evidence and allegations has committed a heinous crime and

00:17:24.620 And an internet service provider or a VPN company might have to give you that.

00:17:29.820 Part two, though, just gives the government just the ability to demand information from these companies for any reason, for whatever they want.

00:17:39.820 And there's very little pushback.

00:17:41.400 That's the problem.

00:17:42.480 There is the reasonable go get a warrant, go say that you need this for this, this, and this reason.

00:17:47.700 And you can basically inquire about those specific things and nothing else.

00:17:51.460 And then there is the phishing expedition.

00:17:53.100 Part of Bill C-22, that every single civil liberties organization, all these VPN companies, a lot of other internet service providers are not happy with because it's just a massive violation of customer privacy.

00:18:06.880 25 hours, JP, 25 hours spent at the public security committee.

00:18:13.080 Now, that's a...

00:18:13.740 25 hours is nothing, by the way.

00:18:16.200 You can hammer out 25 hours in that committee in like a week and a half.

00:18:21.340 It's nothing.

00:18:21.920 And that gives many of these witnesses, as was shown, maybe like an hour in front of the committee.

00:18:28.260 And an hour in front of the committee is often shared by other people where you don't really get to ask that much.

00:18:32.580 And the liberals just kind of, you know, just waste their time.

00:18:35.900 They ask non-questions.

00:18:37.660 Things don't go anywhere.

00:18:39.040 They just hold things up.

00:18:40.480 Committee chairs block questions or people start objecting to each other.

00:18:44.420 25 hours for a piece of policy that is this broken and complicated is nothing.

00:18:51.400 Filibuster. But the Conservatives have a choice.

00:18:53.980 They can debate the issue for those 25 hours or they can waste it by using obstructive tactics.

00:19:01.780 There is enough time on the House of Commons calendar between committees and the House of Commons itself to fully debate all of these views.

00:19:10.680 The problem is all of that time gets chewed up with these dilatory and other tactics that the opposition parties like to play.

00:19:19.620 they are frankly games and then we can we get like one example by the way steve and by the way

00:19:25.720 i don't think steve believes what he's saying so dismiss everything he's saying based on the

00:19:31.240 rules that steve mckinnon has laid out here play this game every time at the end of the session

00:19:36.280 where yes uh we put in place measures to ensure these bills get a vote they get to a vote a

00:19:42.620 democratic vote in the house of commons that's what's uh occurred here and uh it's a occurred

00:19:48.300 to Canadians' benefit because we've put in place the most robust crime agenda in a generation,

00:19:54.400 maybe in history, six or seven major criminal justice bills. The Liberal Party is the Law

00:20:02.220 and Order Party. The party in power basically has to claim that it's anything that it gets passed.

00:20:09.340 The thing is that the actual changes to the criminal code were needed, but really do not

00:20:15.120 go far enough. There is still just a lot of gaps in the law when it comes to being able to hold

00:20:20.500 violent offenders in prison. It still kind of is up to judges to determine whether or not people

00:20:26.460 are going to be held. Yes, people are going to be held far more often now, but the idea that they

00:20:30.580 get to take the mantle of the law and order party after letting criminals out for more than a decade

00:20:36.000 here is just laughable. They should have to be honest here and actually say, we messed up and

00:20:42.020 at least we're fixing it right now. That would be fine. I would accept that. But that's not what

00:20:46.280 he's saying. He's just acting as if he showed up like he's Newt Gingrich and passed criminal

00:20:52.680 justice reform in his first year in the House or something like that. No, no, you did not.

00:21:00.840 Conservatives are the party that kind of deals with conspiracy theories now. It's

00:21:05.120 very intriguing to me to watch the evolution of the Conservative Party away from, you know,

00:21:11.140 this my whole life this law and order um uh cut the crime type party they've moved away from that

00:21:18.140 how did they move away from that they've not moved away from that an inch it's in fact the

00:21:24.840 party that is talking about potentially maybe and i hope that they do this because people are

00:21:29.540 talking about online or a lot in conservative circles bring back the death penalty for serial

00:21:33.700 murderers the conservatives are far more of a tough on crime party they're also a civil liberties

00:21:38.980 party and they are do a better job of balancing it than the liberals do at any single task but

00:21:45.940 whatever we don't even need to listen to steve mckinnon anymore because i actually want to jump

00:21:49.720 over to elizabeth may because although i find elizabeth may and the green party typically 1.00

00:21:55.140 extremely tedious i actually thought she did a good breakdown here reacting to the way that the 0.82

00:22:00.960 liberals have been acting in parliament leading up to this last week where they just started

00:22:05.980 shoving everything through the door i'd love to get all of your thoughts on this government's use

00:22:10.580 of time allocation motions because i i mean you've all laid out various concerns you have with

00:22:16.500 various bills that are that are sort of being rushed through but you know how do you balance

00:22:20.600 that as well with the fact that there are only so many sitting days and you need to move things

00:22:25.600 why are we in a rush right now we could add sitting days that's a discretionary choice

00:22:31.440 we could use our time well we have and if we followed the rules of parliament which no one

00:22:37.440 has for decades we could make parliament work more efficiently we could add more days if you

00:22:42.280 need time to study bills and by the way you could even add days for just the committee to sit

00:22:49.900 just the committee sits by itself for a week parliament can kind of be on almost part-time

00:22:55.900 where only committees are meeting there's no real house business going on they could they could sign

00:23:00.940 any agreement between the parties to say okay we won't have question period we won't have

00:23:05.380 statements we won't have introductions in the house basically we we open parliament the speaker

00:23:10.400 just declares what the committees are today everyone goes to committee rooms and we just

00:23:13.840 debate for the next couple weeks and it would be pretty easy it's pretty small time stuff for most

00:23:19.720 people to do and then when we're finished we can call parliament back to then do a vote we can

00:23:24.760 literally call parliament back for a day to vote on all this stuff that would be fine but the

00:23:29.220 liberals are acting like our hands are tied by government regulations. We can't do this because

00:23:34.100 we don't have enough sitting days. It's like, well, who's in charge of determining the sitting

00:23:37.980 days? The same person, Steve McKinnon, pretending that his hands are tied.

00:23:43.580 And we're not getting it. This government, I mean, I decried the Harper administration's use

00:23:49.940 of omnibus budget bills. It was appalling. And then time allocation over and over again,

00:23:55.580 than any previous government and then the liberals under Trudeau promised no more omnibus budget

00:24:00.060 bills and no more time allocation but now this administration is not only using omnibus budget

00:24:06.700 bills to hide things that were never mentioned in the budget at all like we're going to deregulate

00:24:11.100 pesticide use to allow dangerous pesticides for use that wasn't in the spring economic statement

00:24:15.660 either again this moment right now is the worst i've seen in 15 years as an mp with prime ministers

00:24:23.980 going from Stephen Harper to Justin Trudeau and now Mark Carney. I've served in that parliament

00:24:31.180 with all of those governments in majority positions and minority. This is the worst I've

00:24:36.520 ever seen. And I feel that democracy itself is disrespected. Parliament itself is disrespected.

00:24:45.120 And the existence of, reminds me of what the late Jim Travers said once, you can talk about democracy,

00:24:50.840 you can go to Ottawa. It's basically a democracy theme park. All the buildings are still there.

00:24:57.960 You can tour them, but there's no democracy going on. And at the time, I thought there's

00:25:05.820 still some democracy going on, but welcome to the democracy theme park. So I don't agree with

00:25:12.660 Elizabeth May on policy, but I actually do agree with her on at least democratic functions there.

00:25:17.260 yeah like did you remember

00:25:19.380 I made a video on this it was like a month

00:25:21.540 and a half ago where the liberals

00:25:23.360 in like a single week had like

00:25:25.200 blown out the record for the amount

00:25:27.400 of in-camera time

00:25:29.360 that was used in order to just

00:25:31.340 basically silence committees because

00:25:33.200 if a committee goes in-camera

00:25:34.960 which is kind of a little bit of an oxy 0.81

00:25:37.280 moron a bit because it's actually closed 0.98

00:25:39.280 door nobody knows what's going on it's not 0.96

00:25:41.220 reported no transcript comes out

00:25:42.820 even that in these

00:25:45.020 in-camera meetings

00:25:47.040 they were just basically making it so that the conservatives couldn't actually get any of what

00:25:52.420 they were saying and debating for on the record. And people could say, well, it's so that they

00:25:56.080 don't play to the cameras as much. It's not good for debate. Oh, we're trying to protect witnesses

00:25:59.980 or people giving testimony. No, you're not. People are supposed to be able to see it because people

00:26:05.180 are like shocked of politicians playing to the camera. Yes, it's politics. You're trying to make

00:26:09.640 a point to the public. You are trying to basically show your perspective on how government

00:26:16.860 should be run in opposition to the current government and they do it vice versa this is

00:26:22.160 how we want to govern and this is how they would govern if they were in control you should stick

00:26:25.900 with us but like they had like out like tens of like multiple hours a day of in camera and the

00:26:34.740 previous record was like paul martin where i think during a certain period of his government

00:26:39.000 he had like three hours a day of in camera and the liberals were doing like six and a half hours

00:26:43.620 a day like a month and a half ago i don't even think they're doing that anymore because it was

00:26:47.300 just such a big problem that even legacy media outlets very friendly to the liberals were like

00:26:52.180 guys this is kind of a bad look that like literally every single committee starts up and says we're

00:26:58.280 going in camera and then all the cameras shut up for like the ethics committee like yeah that's a

00:27:04.760 good idea let's have the ethics committee go in camera we wouldn't want anyone to know if there's

00:27:09.740 unethical stuff going on in the ethics committee. Anyways, with all that being said, thank you guys

00:27:16.380 for watching this video. I have some more stuff that I have planned for tomorrow that should be

00:27:21.040 fun, including a progressive TikToker trying to basically argue that schools should all be putting

00:27:28.080 up pride flags every June or kids don't feel safe. At the same time, he actually admits that it's a

00:27:33.260 bad look for to be replacing Canadian flag with pride flags. I'm going to save that video to talk

00:27:38.920 about tomorrow alongside some other stuff but with all that being said thank you guys for watching

00:27:43.760 and i'll see you all later
