Summary

A conservative MP for Bowmanville, Oshawa North correctly assessed the problem with Canada's foreign policy in relation to the United States, and now the Liberals are mad because it kind of gives the whole game away and they're accusing him of being a traitor or being anti-Canadian because they can't actually argue back against his point.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.
00:00:06.060 I find more often than not, when the left is really mad at a conservative,
00:00:11.320 it's because that conservative said some uncomfortable truth that the left does not want to acknowledge.
00:00:17.120 In the case we are going to talk about today, conservative MP for Bowmanville, Oshawa North,
00:00:23.260 Jamil Javani, correctly assessed the problem with Canada's foreign policy in relation to the United States
00:00:29.660 and now the Liberals are really mad because it kind of gives the whole game away
00:00:34.240 and they're accusing him of being a traitor or being anti-Canadian
00:00:38.540 because they can't actually argue back against his point.
00:00:42.660 In just a second here, we are going to get into what Jamil Javani said that sent the left into a meltdown
00:00:48.560 and we're going to go through a lot of what the left has been saying, including a video clip from Laura Babcock.
00:00:54.840 But before we do that, I just want to remind you guys, if you like the show,
00:00:58.200 make sure to leave a like on this video, subscribe if you're not yet a subscriber,
00:01:02.460 leave a comment about what you think, and if you want to help financially sustain the channel,
00:01:06.640 consider going under the video and hitting the join button and making a contribution each month.
00:01:11.820 It makes the channel more sustainable for me and allows me to be less reliant on the YouTube algorithm.
00:01:17.600 Anyways, so here is the article that set everything off.
00:01:21.620 It was an article from Breitbart from the United States where Jamil Javani, in an interview,
00:01:26.840 had basically said that we are sacrificing the sort of the needs of the country,
00:01:33.020 what Canada actually needs to do in relation to the United States in favor of having an anti-American hissy fit.
00:01:40.280 You see right here, this person, John Mark Taylor, says,
00:01:43.280 this is crazy disqualifying.
00:01:45.100 I actually can't even articulate how angry it makes me.
00:01:48.660 F the conservatives and Javani.
00:01:50.340 Now, let's be clear, nobody who is saying all this stuff about Jamil Javani a couple days ago
00:01:56.340 actually was ever going to vote conservative in the first place.
00:02:00.760 So, I don't know if the conservatives would do anything about this.
00:02:03.900 I suspect not in a good way.
00:02:06.040 But if they were to ever punish Jamil Javani for making these comments,
00:02:10.320 they have to realize anyone who's outraged was never voting conservative in the first place.
00:02:15.000 But this article starts off and it says Jamil Javani, a conservative member of Canada's parliament
00:02:19.720 who represents Bowmanville, Oshawa North, told Sirius XM's Breitbart News Saturday
00:02:24.800 that Canadian officials are harming the country with their anti-American hissy fit on trade.
00:02:31.320 Now, I know people can fire back and say, well, Trump's irrational on trade.
00:02:35.980 Well, Trump throws hissy fits on trade.
00:02:38.260 Well, the Americans have been unreasonable in this or that way.
00:02:41.640 Okay, let's take that as fully true.
00:02:44.180 I even agree that Trump has been irrational on trade on many occasions.
00:02:49.600 I think it's actually good for the United States to engage with more free trade rather than having tariffs.
00:02:54.540 But even if that's true, what do we do now?
00:02:58.000 This is always the most frustrating element of everyone who basically gets mad at Trump
00:03:03.000 and justifies Mark Carney basically just attacking the Americans.
00:03:07.400 What does this actually get us?
00:03:09.820 It's just foolish to think that this is somehow good for the country.
00:03:12.860 I want to bring up now the article from Breitbart to just read a couple more lines here.
00:03:19.200 But you actually have to engage with the world as it is.
00:03:23.000 You can't basically just say, well, the Americans are being unreasonable, so screw them.
00:03:28.300 Okay, well, how are we going to get a deal signed?
00:03:30.900 Because Mark Carney's whole perspective that we're just going to get a deal that's good for Canada doesn't work.
00:03:36.700 You can't just simply say you're going to do something without making concessions.
00:03:40.880 You can't walk in and get a 100% total decisive victory and give Trump nothing.
00:03:46.220 You are both going to have to give each other something to get through this.
00:03:49.820 But Carney, and maybe it's to his political benefit, would rather have friction
00:03:53.820 because then he gets to play himself off against Donald Trump if a snap election occurs.
00:03:59.820 Well, let's get to this article.
00:04:00.880 I'm just bringing up on screen so you guys know I'm reading or else I'm awkwardly kind of looking at my screen
00:04:06.300 and not towards the camera.
00:04:07.920 But it says, Giovanni joined Breitbart and Washington's bureau chief Matthew Boyle on the program
00:04:13.860 on the heels of the meeting with President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance,
00:04:17.600 and Secretary of State Marco Rubio earlier this month, which led to a liberal member of parliament,
00:04:22.560 John Paul Danko, labeling Giovanni a Nazi sympathizer.
00:04:25.860 Yes, he called him Unity Midford, which was insane, this woman from, I believe, Britain or America
00:04:31.180 who was like a massive Hitler lover.
00:04:33.900 Article goes on to say, Giovanni, who has known Vance for a decade and a half,
00:04:38.820 said he took it upon himself to meet with top American officials because of the stalemate
00:04:43.540 and lack of communication between the two countries on trade.
00:04:47.300 This is Giovanni talking, quote,
00:04:48.940 I've been friends with Vice President Vance for 15 years now.
00:04:51.980 We went to law school together.
00:04:53.340 So I've been watching this whole thing go on for months and months now,
00:04:56.400 where the Canadian economy is genuinely struggling.
00:04:59.100 We're losing jobs.
00:05:00.080 We lost 52,000 private sector jobs in the last month alone.
00:05:03.360 They're saying we're in a recession watch.
00:05:06.040 So I thought, you know, let me go down there, Giovanni said.
00:05:10.520 Quote, I know a Vice President.
00:05:12.260 I know the Vice President.
00:05:13.560 Let me go chat with him.
00:05:15.140 See if there's anything I can do to help build a bridge between our two governments.
00:05:18.220 Because right now, it's been three and a half months of little dialogue between the two countries.
00:05:23.520 And so I got a chance to meet with President Trump as well.
00:05:25.920 You know, good conversations.
00:05:27.860 Now, we don't need to go any deeper into the article.
00:05:31.420 Effectively, Giovanni's just describing what he tried to do.
00:05:34.500 Tried to just repair the good relationship.
00:05:37.100 Talk about Canada and America as allies.
00:05:39.840 And we need to be trade allies in order to kind of fend off the, you know,
00:05:43.540 the hostile east of Iran, Russia, and China.
00:05:46.920 That's all great.
00:05:48.180 But instead, like, no left, no one on the Canadian left, for some reason, can acknowledge
00:05:52.740 that this might be a good thing.
00:05:54.480 You get, again, John Mark Taylor here having a meltdown.
00:05:57.720 This David Bowman guy said, I said 13 months ago, he wouldn't have, we wouldn't have to
00:06:02.700 search too hard.
00:06:04.440 The traders to Canada will reveal themselves.
00:06:07.240 They're almost exclusively conservative across the board.
00:06:10.120 Modern conservatism has become brain poison.
00:06:13.100 And this other person, Henry A., says, Breitbart News, not only did Jamil Giovanni go to the
00:06:17.600 U.S. without a mandate to negotiate, but he said he went to help Canadian interests.
00:06:22.160 Instead, he went to bash Canada on Steve Bannon's mega media.
00:06:26.220 The U.S. threatened Canada, but Jamil says we should stop our hissy fit.
00:06:30.780 Okay.
00:06:32.040 I'd love to ask people like this.
00:06:33.880 I'm sorry, but what does the hissy fit help?
00:06:36.140 Well, what does the anti-American rhetoric of Mark Carney do for us?
00:06:42.480 Nothing.
00:06:43.360 It doesn't do anything.
00:06:44.780 And that's what I mean when I say you must engage in the world as how it really is.
00:06:50.640 You cannot basically complain that it is the way that it is.
00:06:53.940 You have to play the game as it is set in front of you.
00:06:56.780 And you can say, well, it feels unfair.
00:06:59.160 Well, it may feel unfair because we are a country of only a little more than 10% of the
00:07:04.200 population of the United States.
00:07:06.260 Our economy per capita is weaker than their economy.
00:07:09.740 And so we may have to make more concessions than them in order to get to the finish line.
00:07:14.600 It's just how it is.
00:07:16.800 Now, maybe Mark Carney's plan is to wait for the midterm elections in the United States in
00:07:23.480 order to try and get a new deal.
00:07:24.940 Even then, in order to actually have the House of Representatives and the Senate defeat Trump's
00:07:30.860 tariffs, they would have to have a two-third majority against it.
00:07:34.220 Trump's still going to be president.
00:07:35.760 So that's a really stupid thing to do.
00:07:37.680 And you're really bargaining with the jobs and livelihoods of Canadians if you're just
00:07:41.620 going to wait several more months until the 11th month of the year in order to maybe
00:07:47.540 get some traction.
00:07:48.440 And it wouldn't happen right after the midterms.
00:07:50.180 It would take months longer.
00:07:51.380 So how many Canadians are going to lose their jobs?
00:07:54.180 How many mills are going to close down?
00:07:55.880 How many manufacturing plants are going to close down?
00:07:57.840 How many corporate offices are going to close down for Mark Carney to not engage in a real
00:08:02.580 negotiation right now?
00:08:04.000 It's so dumb to me.
00:08:06.400 But I guess that's kind of the point here.
00:08:08.560 We have here a formerly conservative-leaning independent journalist and now just a liberal
00:08:14.360 hack.
00:08:15.180 Rupert Supramania here says, at this point, you'd have to wonder if Giovanni is Carney's guy
00:08:21.360 in the CPC.
00:08:22.500 Or maybe this is some kind of 4D chess in which alienating the broader public, including
00:08:26.960 possibly your own constituents, is supposed to translate into electoral success.
00:08:31.660 I cannot stand the way where we have these sort of soft conservative people who now just
00:08:37.800 constantly side with Carney and the liberals.
00:08:41.060 And I'm not just saying because they're siding with them, ergo they're wrong.
00:08:44.020 But just pretending to not know the meaning of words, pretending to not understand what
00:08:50.020 Giovanni is doing.
00:08:51.440 Giovanni, in fact, is making a very smart electoral play because he's attempting to help Carney
00:08:55.720 and Carney's batting away his assistance, meaning that Carney's exposing the fact that he's not
00:09:00.740 actually trying to get a deal signed.
00:09:02.280 But all these people acting like, oh my goodness, Giovanni's, what is he doing?
00:09:06.440 This is, he's helping the Americans out or he's hurting the conservatives.
00:09:09.640 No, he's not.
00:09:11.400 The only way the conservatives are hurt is by people like Rupa deliberately taking what
00:09:17.060 he's doing out of context and pretending he's like acting as a traitor against the nation.
00:09:21.180 Or he's trying to hand Mark Carney a win by trying to help him on trade.
00:09:27.260 I'm sorry, he's not doing anything wrong here whatsoever.
00:09:31.680 Another, I want to get to another, some other responses here.
00:09:35.680 So we have both Alina Raj here saying, or she quotes what he says.
00:09:42.260 And then we have Dean Blundell, the former radio show host who was kicked off for saying
00:09:46.440 sexual things about children.
00:09:48.440 Dean Blundell here says, Jamil is helping J.D. Vance reframe Canada's extreme hatred of
00:09:53.740 America's pedophile rapist president as anti-American hissy fit.
00:09:57.740 Someone needs to remind him that he's doing the business of a pedophile rapist.
00:10:01.500 And yes, this is coordinated with the Trump regime, Maple Mega.
00:10:04.840 Yeah, apparently you can just say stuff and it doesn't matter at all.
00:10:09.060 Here's another one.
00:10:10.200 We have Robin Urback here says, conservative MP Jamil Giovanni talking to Breitbart about
00:10:16.080 Canada's trade deal with China says, I think the only reason why this was even possible
00:10:21.120 is because so much anti-American resentment has been ginned up among liberals in Canada.
00:10:26.820 So it made China look better.
00:10:29.280 How is that wrong?
00:10:30.360 Um, I'm pretty sure Urback, uh, Robin means that in an anti-Javani way.
00:10:36.160 Uh, I couldn't see it any other way, but that's like, what are you talking about?
00:10:40.160 That's pretty obvious that China has a very bad reputation in Canada.
00:10:45.820 Rightfully so.
00:10:46.580 They try and rig our elections.
00:10:48.080 They arrest our people in their country.
00:10:49.860 They harassed Chinese Canadians in Canada and their families back home.
00:10:54.620 Yes, Mark Carney has been basically, he's been explicitly saying that, well, because of the
00:11:01.980 changing dynamics of the world, we need to find new allies and open up new trade partnerships
00:11:06.700 or strengthen old, you know, strengthen strained relationships like with China.
00:11:12.000 He's been saying stuff like that.
00:11:13.600 It's obviously the play is to keep getting into fights with America and making it seem
00:11:18.760 like there's no reasonable path to actually getting a deal signed, which is justifying
00:11:22.900 him talking to the CCP government.
00:11:25.760 You know, the people who have Uyghurs in concentration camps lock up their own people for things that
00:11:31.140 would be absolutely, you know, normal to do in the West, you know, spying on their own
00:11:37.280 people, rigging our elections, trying to steal our intellectual property.
00:11:42.040 We are now working with those people under the justification that Trump's too unreasonable.
00:11:48.180 Is Trump unreasonable at times?
00:11:49.700 Yes.
00:11:50.460 Is he more unreasonable than the Chinese Communist Party?
00:11:53.440 Definitely not.
00:11:54.900 But here is Jamil Javani on Brian Lilly's show talking to him about the response to everyone
00:12:00.220 attacking him.
00:12:01.080 I've always taken it as you putting country before party.
00:12:07.140 Talk to people who say, no, that's not it.
00:12:09.380 It's just self-aggrandizement.
00:12:12.340 This is your future leadership run.
00:12:14.460 This is your personal ambition.
00:12:16.940 What do you say to those people who are being skeptical?
00:12:19.940 Because I take you at your, you know, at your word.
00:12:23.700 And by the way, were you a liberal MP doing this with a conservative government?
00:12:27.600 I would be the same.
00:12:28.620 Like, we've got to take people at their word.
00:12:30.860 But how do you convince those that are very skeptical?
00:12:33.360 Well, look, I'm not in the business of trying to persuade people who have bad faith criticisms.
00:12:40.960 But I think some of the people you're describing do have good faith questions.
00:12:45.260 And to those people, what I would say is, I mean, look, what I'm trying to do here is help
00:12:52.140 a liberal prime minister get a trade deal done.
00:12:55.680 I am not trying to take credit for anything that I can't contribute.
00:13:00.860 I'm trying to be a member of a team to accomplish an objective.
00:13:05.160 And I don't believe that being a member of a team requires, as some recent floor crossings might suggest,
00:13:13.040 abandoning your party, your voters, or your convictions.
00:13:16.540 I can be a principled conservative and work with liberals on things that we agree on.
00:13:22.040 And I think that should be a normal part of how Ottawa works.
00:13:26.180 I don't believe that the people who vote for me expect me to be a potted plant sitting in
00:13:32.340 a corner while the world goes by.
00:13:35.060 And, you know, it's never been my personality either.
00:13:38.700 Look me up.
00:13:39.540 For better or for worse, I've never been willing to be a potted plant.
00:13:44.000 Apparently, this is big trader stuff.
00:13:45.860 Him actually contributing and trying to help the trade deal get done is,
00:13:52.040 super big trader stuff.
00:13:53.400 It's Unity Midford stuff, as that one liberal MP tried to accuse him of doing.
00:13:59.260 Wow.
00:13:59.980 So I want to now jump to the Laura Babcock clip because I always like to find what the
00:14:04.440 most unhinged leftists are saying, and Laura Babcock is truly their best representative.
00:14:10.180 So here we go in her accusing Jamil Javani of being a traitor.
00:14:13.360 Something I also find fucking disgusting.
00:14:15.440 Jamil Javani going down there to Washington, right?
00:14:19.640 I didn't really follow Jamil.
00:14:21.100 I didn't really care.
00:14:21.760 I didn't know who this guy was.
00:14:22.720 He didn't even make the shadow cabinet, right?
00:14:24.380 Who's this guy?
00:14:24.980 He goes down to Washington to flex that he's buddies with, you know, J.D.
00:14:29.460 Vance, who gets booed, of course, days later at the Olympics, which is delicious.
00:14:33.280 And so it's like, okay, that's a stupid flex.
00:14:35.340 It's, ew, it's, uh, whatever.
00:14:37.140 And then to be adjacent to the Trump regime, which are fascists.
00:14:40.740 What was that point?
00:14:44.000 Which are fascists.
00:14:47.100 What's a fascist policy of the Trump administration?
00:14:49.900 Oh my goodness, they're deporting illegal immigrants.
00:14:53.740 Apparently that's big fascist stuff.
00:14:55.680 Liberals let people remain in the country illegally forever.
00:14:59.580 In fact, why even have borders, which is the only way of taking Laura's perspective.
00:15:04.660 We should not even have borders.
00:15:05.780 So in theory, would it really be an invasion if Trump rolled a bunch of Abrams tanks over
00:15:11.420 the border because, well, you can't say they can be here or not be here.
00:15:15.940 What do borders even mean?
00:15:17.380 Nobody is illegal on stolen land, Laura.
00:15:20.320 And also covering for a pedophile ring, like it doesn't get much.
00:15:23.880 Oh yeah, pedophile ring.
00:15:25.080 Apparently, yeah, there's apparently a pedophile ring involved in this trade negotiation.
00:15:29.380 It's worse of people you want to go into a room with.
00:15:32.160 And he wasn't even asked to.
00:15:33.340 It wasn't part of a collaborative national initiative on trade or some shit.
00:15:37.400 It wasn't some statecraft.
00:15:39.140 It was just bullshit.
00:15:40.340 But then what pissed me off the most, guys, was he comes back delivering a message for
00:15:46.200 Trump, messaging for Trump, messaging for a fascist and saying...
00:15:50.620 It's not messaging for Trump.
00:15:52.680 You have a message and you are delivering what he said.
00:15:57.180 Laura, apparently Laura, if we ever made her like the queen of Canada, would just start
00:16:02.300 like executing anyone who told her what Trump said.
00:16:04.920 You're like, oh my goodness, you're messaging for Trump.
00:16:07.440 Shoot the messenger.
00:16:09.220 That is all that's happening.
00:16:10.740 He's saying what Trump's perspective is.
00:16:12.560 Now, you can take it or leave it.
00:16:14.380 You can take certain parts of it with a grain of salt.
00:16:16.160 You can say he's lying about something.
00:16:17.460 You can say he's embellishing something.
00:16:18.940 And I disagree with Trump all the time.
00:16:21.200 But goodness, she's genuinely trying to shoot the messenger.
00:16:25.260 And just simply saying like, oh, they're fascist, pedophile, ring, you know, evil dictators.
00:16:31.660 So you can't talk to them.
00:16:33.160 Trump loves this Canada.
00:16:34.720 He loves you, Canada.
00:16:35.680 And I'm like, what the fuck are you doing?
00:16:38.920 I'm sorry, but like Trump genuinely doesn't hate Canada.
00:16:42.220 He might think a lot of things about Canada.
00:16:43.620 He doesn't hate Canada.
00:16:44.680 Have you ever seen the polling of what different registered voters in the United States think
00:16:49.980 about Canada?
00:16:50.740 Democrats, independents, and Republicans?
00:16:52.840 Dude, Republicans, independents, and Democrats all like Canada.
00:16:56.200 They literally do not care.
00:16:58.120 We are in the meme of like Canada being like, oh my goodness, I hate America.
00:17:01.960 I wish they would just die.
00:17:03.100 And Americans are sitting over there.
00:17:04.300 They're like, man, Canada's so nice and friendly.
00:17:06.360 I love them.
00:17:07.940 Now, we are in a trade conflict at the moment.
00:17:10.920 But I don't think that trying to make Canadians hate the United States more is working to actually
00:17:18.660 get a trade deal signed.
00:17:19.900 In fact, we keep pushing it back more because every time we try and signal to Canadians how
00:17:24.880 much our politicians hate the United States, it ends up ruining the negotiations.
00:17:29.540 And then we need to go through a month-long reset just to get back to the table, like in
00:17:33.720 the aftermath of that stupid anti-Trump ad that Doug Ford ran in the United States, which
00:17:38.680 he spent like $24 million on or something like that.
00:17:41.780 It was a crazy amount of money.
00:17:44.000 Like, how many cops could that hire?
00:17:45.960 How many?
00:17:46.360 How much more border security could that get us?
00:17:49.140 How many jobs could that subsidize?
00:17:51.020 Now, I'm not a big believer in subsidizing jobs, but Doug Ford is.
00:17:54.900 That would be more productive than spending it on some Ronald Reagan ad that was put together,
00:17:59.220 I believe, by an American firm.
00:18:01.380 Well, what do I know?
00:18:02.760 Anyways, with that all being said, thank you guys for watching this video.
00:18:06.340 You know, I salute Jamil Giovanni.
00:18:08.540 He's doing a great job out there.
00:18:09.860 I like Polyev as leader, but I think that Jamil Giovanni in, you know, eight to 12 years
00:18:14.920 could actually make a really good leader and prime minister.
00:18:17.120 I think he's very principally conservative.
00:18:19.880 He can kind of keep extreme factions from influencing him.
00:18:23.640 And I'm a very right-wing guy.
00:18:25.480 There's just certain people in politics now who are always trying to coax people to go
00:18:29.600 further and further.
00:18:31.060 The Dominion Society type people.
00:18:32.900 We can't just end mass immigration and deport illegals and deport people exploiting the
00:18:36.820 social services and all this stuff.
00:18:38.540 We need to abort people because they're not the right race.
00:18:42.380 No, we can solve problems without being insane.
00:18:46.240 Well, and I think that Jamil Giovanni very much represents that.
00:18:48.940 He's somebody who is a principled, what I'd call, Goldwater type conservative.
00:18:54.760 Yes, I couldn't compare him to a Canadian conservative because there hasn't been that many
00:18:58.940 leaders in Canada who are like super, super conservative.
00:19:02.800 And so sadly, I had to use an American example.
00:19:05.620 Maybe I could say that Jamil Giovanni is very much a Bill van der Zem.
00:19:09.720 Bill van der Zem is the most underrated premier in all of Canadian history.
00:19:14.280 I wish he would have got to be the premier of British Columbia longer and he didn't have
00:19:17.820 basically his entire administration leaking on him all the time because they didn't like
00:19:21.660 that he was actually conservative.
00:19:22.960 But that's another story for another day.
00:19:25.660 Anyways, without all being said, thank you guys for watching and I'll see you all later.
00:19:29.300 Thank you.
