00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. I think one of the worst aspects of politics is how politicians
00:00:07.080 seem to never be able to exit quietly. They will burn the house down and they will stick around
00:00:13.200 yapping at us all about what we need to do to fix the problem when everyone doesn't want to hear
00:00:18.740 from them anymore. Justin Trudeau may be stepping down as Prime Minister in March to be replaced by
00:00:25.460 whoever the Liberal Party elects and he is also not running for re-election in his riding of Papineau.
00:00:31.320 But be clear, Justin Trudeau wants a fourth term in government and that fourth term is called Mark
00:00:37.800 Carney. Everyone in Team Trudeau is pretty much behind Mark Carney at this point. The worst liberal
00:00:44.540 ministers, you have Katie Telford, Justin Trudeau's chief of staff, you probably have Rob Silver in
00:00:50.300 there. Jerry Butts is Mark Carney's campaign chair. It's absolutely ridiculous how Trudeau-coded Mark
00:00:57.940 Carney's campaign is. I've said this before and it's quite remarkable to say that Chrystia Freeland
00:01:04.660 in this Liberal Party leadership race is in fact the anti-Trudeau option. Not in the sense that she's
00:01:13.040 any different from Trudeau in terms of policy in major ways. She's not. Her and Carney are basically
00:01:19.460 identical on policy. But when it comes to who is lining up behind Trudeau and who is running
00:01:25.520 explicitly as the non-Trudeau person, Freeland somehow is the non-Trudeau candidate and Carney
00:01:32.020 is the Trudeau candidate. That's why we saw Freeland the other day actually rip on Justin Trudeau
00:01:37.980 in a television interview mocking him for having fired her during the fall economic statement.
00:01:43.880 But anyways, I want to jump into how Mark Carney is effectively just Justin Trudeau for a fourth term.
00:01:53.000 And before I get into it, make sure guys you like this video, subscribe to the channel if you like
00:01:58.160 watching my videos but you're not yet a subscriber, leave a comment on whatever aspect of this Liberal
00:02:04.260 leadership race that you think I've been missing over the past several videos. But let's get into it
00:02:10.220 starting with some of these Liberal endorsements because the worst Liberal ministers are all getting
00:02:16.240 behind Mark Carney. Again, I wouldn't tell you to buy a Liberal membership and vote for any of these
00:02:21.800 people. But if you were to vote between Freeland and Carney, it sounds insane. But I would have had
00:02:28.480 to pick Freeland if you had a gun to my head and forced me to vote for one of the two. Because Carney
00:02:34.960 has the absolute worst people behind him. Here, a couple of days ago, he had Melanie Jolie endorse him
00:02:42.120 saying, I am proud to endorse Mark Carney as the next leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. Mark
00:02:48.000 brings unparalleled economic experience, having served as governor of the Bank of Canada and the
00:02:53.440 Bank of England. During times of crisis, governments of all stripes turned to Mark, including during the
00:02:59.600 2008 global economic crisis and Brexit. Oh my goodness. No, they did not. In fact, it was Stephen
00:03:06.760 Harper that brought Canada through the 2008 market crisis, because he actually had responsible 1.00
00:03:13.680 spending, he had lower taxes than many jurisdictions in the United States, and he didn't have stupid 0.95
00:03:19.680 subprime mortgage programs backed by the government the way that the US government did. A lot of people 0.97
00:03:25.700 get the housing market crash in the US wrong. It was mostly a federal policy problem, basically
00:03:31.340 forcing banks to give out subprime mortgages with the incentive that the government would buy off of
00:03:36.960 you through government organizations like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. So while they were greedy bankers,
00:03:42.440 they were greedy because the government was forcing you to give out subprime mortgages with the incentive
00:03:46.920 they'd buy them off of you right away to basically make it no risk. So it was this carrot and stick
00:03:52.100 scenario that created the worst of both worlds. But Mark Carney does not factor in at all to why
00:03:59.160 Canada survived the 2008 market crash. Well, it was in fact, conservative governance that made it so
00:04:05.400 that we were well set. Do you think if Trudeau was in charge during the 2008 market crash, that he would
00:04:12.380 have had the discipline to not just pump up spending and blow out inflation by trying to stimulate the
00:04:18.780 economy rather than just letting the economy resettle and grow on its own? Because that's
00:04:23.280 what Harper did. And we've seen Trudeau in office and he did not do the right thing. In fact, Carney has
00:04:28.380 been there for the last two years advising Trudeau along and he's kept advising more spending, more
00:04:34.960 programs, more taxes. That is literally what Carney believes. In fact, he's stumped against new oil and
00:04:41.920 gas projects in Canada while his organization that he is an investor in invests in pipelines and oil and
00:04:49.280 gas projects in Brazil and the United Arab Emirates. He is a complete trash fire of a financial advisor. 0.99
00:04:56.160 He just happened to be around in Canada at the right time. And by the way, terrible Bank of England 1.00
00:05:01.760 governor, Liz Truss, the former prime minister of England or the UK came out and said, yes, you would be
00:05:07.960 dodging a major bullet by not having Mark Carney as your prime minister. But you guys probably already
00:05:14.080 knew about the Melanie Jolie endorsement. She's a terrible foreign affairs minister, super pro-Hamas, 1.00
00:05:20.800 undermines our allies all the time, especially Israel. But now let's jump over to a man who has 0.96
00:05:26.380 undermined Canada itself through his terrible immigration and then terrible housing policy. This,
00:05:32.940 of course, is former housing minister Sean Frazier, who is not even running for re-election,
00:05:37.960 and might even run to become the new Nova Scotia liberal leader trying to escape out the back door,
00:05:44.120 but not to go back to private life like he should. No, he's going to try and make more political
00:05:48.420 trouble elsewhere. He is the man who his deputy ministers, who tend to be more on the left,
00:05:54.860 were warning that his immigration rates were too high. And they were warning that the housing
00:06:00.040 acceleration fund was not actually creating more housing. Housing, since he started his housing
00:06:05.960 acceleration fund, has made housing starts lower year after year for about three years now.
00:06:11.800 The race is on to select the next leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister of Canada,
00:06:15.700 and I'm supporting Mark Carney. You know, when I chat with folks around home, or frankly,
00:06:19.800 in any part of the country, they tell me that they're pretty frustrated because they do not want
00:06:24.420 to elect Pierre Qualia as Prime Minister. Oh yeah, that's why they tell you it. It's not because your
00:06:28.360 guys' government sucks. It's because this guy who's not currently in government, and had a far better 0.92
00:06:34.300 record than you, both with the Conservative government overall, and when he was housing
00:06:38.460 minister, that yeah, that's what people are mad about. It's that Poliev might become the Prime
00:06:42.960 Minister and cut taxes. That's what people are frustrated about. Not the fact that you suck as
00:06:47.860 immigration and housing minister. Obviously not those things. But if they're going to take another 1.00
00:06:52.320 chance on us, they want to see some real change from the Liberals. Well, my answer is Mark Carney.
00:06:56.620 He's got the ability to bring a new economic focus to our politics.
00:07:00.620 What does that mean? What does that mean? Because he was literally involved the last two years.
00:07:06.140 Mark Carney pretending he's an outsider is as absurd as Jagmeet Singh trying to blame the Liberals for
00:07:11.380 everything that happened since 2019, when the NDP has been involved in the government since then.
00:07:17.180 To work to create jobs for families so people can put food on the table and keep a roof over their
00:07:21.760 heads. He's a seasoned professional who has the ability to go toe-to-toe with our American
00:07:25.920 counterparts, especially given all the noise we're hearing south of the border these days.
00:07:29.840 What does any of this mean? It's vague garbage. He's literally one of the most respected voices 0.99
00:07:34.660 on the economy worldwide. No. And he's a fundamentally decent person who cares an awful
00:07:40.320 lot about the country that we all love. Unless you're working in the oil and gas industry in
00:07:45.300 Alberta, Saskatchewan or Newfoundland, he doesn't like your industry because he literally calls it
00:07:50.120 a like, he said it was basically like a, it was like something about it being vulnerable or being
00:07:56.920 like on the decline or something like that. It's like, he's talking about it being in a precarious
00:08:02.020 position. It's a, it's a risky investment in Alberta, in Canada, despite it being a totally fine
00:08:07.780 investment in Brazil and the UAE. He's a hypocrite. He has, he has also referred to himself as a 1.00
00:08:13.260 European on tape. He is like Mike Lignotti of 2.0 with Justin Trudeau's backing. I'm proud to be
00:08:20.480 supporting Mark Carney and I hope that you sign up to support him too. If you're interested in
00:08:24.240 learning more about his campaign, visit markcarney.ca. The race is on to select the next leader.
00:08:31.460 Ron Frazier is like a robot. He is the most robotic liberal that I know of right now. Let's just move
00:08:39.520 on from there. That was pretty embarrassing. Here's another endorsement coming in from our
00:08:44.760 favorite environment minister, Mr. Stephen Gilbeau. Yes, Stephen Gilbeau is endorsing Mark Carney.
00:08:54.540 He says he's all in for the environment. Of course, he always lists that first for the economy,
00:09:02.000 for Canadians. Mark Carney is the right person for Canada's future. And this is why I am supporting him
00:09:07.440 as the next leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. And in his statement, he says, I have dedicated my
00:09:12.580 entire life to fight climate change, to protect the environment, and to deliver a better life for
00:09:17.480 all Canadians, as well as for our kids and grandkids. Stephen Gilbeau is also a on-the-record-stated
00:09:24.160 proud socialist. He said that in the House of Commons. He says, going on, right now, we are at a
00:09:30.840 decisive moment. Decisive moment, which is our current government having no real leader. We're
00:09:36.980 in terrible economic shape, and our social fabric is fraying. But yes, it's a decisive moment. We are
00:09:43.440 at a decisive moment, and important choice are coming in the next year. Pierre Polyev wants to set us back
00:09:48.700 decades in our fight against climate change. He won't protect Canada's environment. He won't protect
00:09:54.020 Canada's right to clean water, clean air. Oh, yes, true. Polyev has a policy of just dumping pollution
00:09:59.060 into the air. He won't protect Canadians from Trump, I guess, because Trump's going to break
00:10:03.120 into your house and start throttling you. He won't protect social programs for families across the
00:10:08.080 country. The only thing he will do is lie to Canadians. Oh, yes, he's going to lie. And I don't
00:10:13.700 even want to read the rest of the statement. One, because Stephen Gilbeau is like, I don't even know.
00:10:21.360 He's just incompetent with social media. He's like, uploaded his statement in like three different
00:10:25.460 images that you have to read. It's just cancer to the eyes. So we're going to skip over that. Yes.
00:10:31.380 So the climate czar of Justin Trudeau is backing Mark Carney. It almost makes you think that Mark
00:10:38.420 Carney might be being backed by all of Team Trudeau and Justin Trudeau himself. Trudeau, in fact, is
00:10:45.360 probably only leaving office and even like leaving not as prime minister or not only as prime minister,
00:10:51.200 but leaving the House of Commons because it allows for the plausible deniability that Trudeau is no
00:10:56.180 longer involved. Oh, I'm not involved. I retired. I'm not even the MP for Papineau anymore. I'm just
00:11:01.880 off on beaches. He's obviously going to be the sort of like force behind the Liberal Party still.
00:11:10.120 If somebody's not following Mark Carney's like orders, it's probably not Mark Carney that they're
00:11:15.400 going to get an earful from. It's probably Katie Telford or Justin Trudeau because Mark Carney,
00:11:20.580 much like Christy Freeland and much like everyone else running for the Liberal leadership,
00:11:24.580 does not have a personality. He doesn't have energy at all. He's boring. And that's why he needs
00:11:30.260 Justin Trudeau as like the mascot of the party to keep it alive. But he also needs Trudeau in this ironic
00:11:36.020 sense to be like 50 feet away from any building that the Liberals are in because they do not want
00:11:42.120 the association. But remember, Trudeau is still in charge here. And let's talk about this endorsement
00:11:48.260 because this one's pretty funny. So Mark Gerritsen is endorsing Mark Carney. I don't know if Mark Carney
00:11:56.860 forgot to bribe Mark Gerritsen to not give like to not endorse him. But this is not something that's
00:12:05.060 going to help. Plus, this video is hilarious and I need to talk about it. Thank you to the
00:12:10.000 hundreds of local Liberals in Kingston and the islands who have reached out to share your thoughts
00:12:13.580 with me during this exciting time as we select a new leader for the Liberal Party. How do you reach
00:12:19.620 out and talk to Mark Gerritsen when he literally doesn't even have public comments open for his
00:12:24.400 for his ex account? It's always wild whenever these guys talk about a community engagement when they
00:12:29.400 won't even engage on social media with average people. In fact, the last time Mark Gerritsen tried to
00:12:34.860 interact with people who are critics of him. He ended up getting sued by Kat Canda. He and Bextie
00:12:40.580 in the counter signal lost and then had to or had to settle and then had to donate to a charity of
00:12:46.380 Kat Canda's choice. It has been invigorating to see the Liberal landscape re-energize. In fact,
00:12:53.060 our list of local Liberal supporters has nearly quadrupled in the last two weeks. What has become
00:12:58.160 very clear to me through the conversations I've had with Liberals in Kingston and the islands is they
00:13:02.500 want change. They want to see change in the status quo and a new vision to build a better Canada that
00:13:08.440 embraces the realities of the world we live in. They want tangible solutions that address the very
00:13:13.780 real problems we face. And I agree. Agree with what? Agree with vague statements? Guys, in my Canada,
00:13:22.720 I want to have a vision of a redemption. We don't want the current thing. We want new thing. And that new
00:13:32.920 thing has to be full of energy and light. And we want more. Canadians want to get stuff done better. And
00:13:44.480 that's, I agree with all those people who reached out to me, thousands of people who reached out to me,
00:13:49.940 who want the thing done better, but don't want Polyev because he's not the right thing. But we're the
00:13:57.220 right thing. And we're going to do something new. What are we going to do new? I don't know. It's
00:14:01.540 Mark Carney. It's literally Justin Trudeau's guy. So how is it going to be new at all? Tell us, Mark.
00:14:06.300 In this election, it is crucial. We choose a leader who embodies this change. Someone who listens,
00:14:12.740 understands, and acts with integrity. And most importantly, someone positioned to guide us through
00:14:17.680 the challenges ahead and seize the opportunities that live for us. Oh, we got to seize them. We got
00:14:22.680 grab onto it, seize them. That's, that's the part that we, that was the missing piece. That was the
00:14:28.760 missing piece to all the vague stuff Mark was saying before. We don't just need a new vision and we don't
00:14:33.120 just need to build whatever. We need to seize it too. I hate vague political language. If you're going
00:14:39.600 to make a video that's such a dry popcorn fart like this, don't release it. It literally could have
00:14:45.880 just been a five word tweet or something like that. I endorse Mark Carney or that's four words,
00:14:52.080 but it doesn't matter. You could just make it short rather than this, not nothing. This makes me
00:14:57.880 dislike Mark Carney more than I did before because the fact that his endorsers cannot even come up
00:15:04.380 with a solid, he's going to do this and it's going to help the economy because it's going to result in
00:15:09.400 this. Say Mark Carney is going to, you know, pass this new economic investment program that's going
00:15:17.020 to dollar match new small businesses entering the economy and it's going to kickstart us into
00:15:22.200 the latter 2020s. Okay. That's something. They don't even have that. They have not gone past square
00:15:28.280 one. Mark Carney and Christy Freeland are both apparently running against the carbon tax, but
00:15:32.520 they're not really because they have their own carbon solution or whatever, but it's new and they're
00:15:37.140 seizing the day with it and they're helping strive Canada forward into a bright new feature of happy,
00:15:42.780 smiling, laughing people. It's all horrible. For me and for so many others I've heard from,
00:15:50.840 that person is Mark Carney. Oh yeah. I will be supporting Mark Carney for leader of the Liberal
00:15:55.160 Party of Canada primarily for two reasons. First, what we need right now is someone with the experience
00:16:00.780 required to handle the economic realities in Canada and throughout the world. I like that Mark
00:16:06.140 Garretson needed to get the drone footage of this building in Kingston in order to shoot this video.
00:16:12.100 He really needed this or we wouldn't understand the sweeping gravity of the sheer boredom that is
00:16:18.340 Mark Carney. Right now is someone with the experience required to handle the economic realities in Canada
00:16:24.120 and throughout the world. Mark's qualifications in that regard outmatch every other candidate in the
00:16:29.100 field. He has been the governor of two central banks and is largely responsible for saving the Canadian
00:16:34.880 economy in 2008. He's just not. We didn't have the same problems as America for a reason. You know,
00:16:43.120 even parts of America did not actually suffer from the housing crisis because it was easy to build
00:16:48.100 homes in those jurisdictions. Taxes were low and all that sort of thing. So subprime mortgages were not
00:16:54.220 hyperinflating the market because there were the amount of houses that were being built were super
00:16:58.980 restricted. That's why it was mostly the West and East Coast, New York, LA, San Francisco, Miami that
00:17:06.060 were slammed by the housing crisis. But if you go to Dallas, there was literally only a 3% reduction in
00:17:11.720 housing prices after the 2008 market crash because it was super easy to build houses. So getting into a
00:17:16.740 bidding war wasn't really a thing for new developments. His economic experience and his steady vision for our
00:17:23.280 future is exactly what we need in these uncertain times. Second, like many of us, Mark Carney cares
00:17:29.600 passionately about our environment. Again, Mark's experience in this regard is unparalleled. Serving
00:17:35.160 as the UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, Mark is respected around the world for his
00:17:41.060 contributions to fight climate change and build stronger, healthier economies. Quintessentially
00:17:46.520 Canadian, Mark compares his youthful days playing... Quintessentially Canadian is Mark Carney, the
00:17:52.300 stated European. ...hockey to his vision for leadership. An understanding that teamwork and
00:17:57.760 resilience is valued and the importance for leaders to stay focused and adapt swiftly to challenges
00:18:03.260 is crucial. Much like reacting to fast-paced action on the ice. I encourage everyone to vote Mark Carney
00:18:09.560 to be the next leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. Man, you think that how many times do you think
00:18:14.600 they had to film this or they had to cut away from people throwing eggs at Mark Gerritsen? 0.99
00:18:20.040 All this is just beige garbage. I keep saying that Freeland and Mark Carney are the personifications 0.83
00:18:27.720 of the color beige. These people are boring. Check this out too. This is really interesting that we 0.71
00:18:34.400 have... Look at all the people endorsing Mark Carney. And while there are a bunch of turkeys also endorsing, 0.97
00:18:39.840 you know, Christia Freeland. The thing you'll notice is all the people endorsing Mark Carney are like
00:18:47.040 really close Trudeau allies. People that Trudeau appointed into their Liberal nominations. And lots and lots
00:18:56.240 of ministers. People associated with the PPC like Parm Baines. You have Calistanis and corrupt people like 1.00
00:19:01.840 George Hall, Sook Dhaliwal. Mark Gerritsen is there now. But yeah, Cabin Ministers, Gilboa,
00:19:08.160 Haiju. You have Melanie Jolie. You have, oddly enough, self-hating MP Wayne Long from New Brunswick,
00:19:18.400 who was the guy who initially a year ago said Trudeau should step down. But he's still around
00:19:22.480 backing Carney, even though he's literally just Trudeau with a different skin suit. We have
00:19:28.240 Harjit Sajan. We have all these people who have just been absolutely terrible in office. Ryan Turnbull.
00:19:34.160 Mark Carney is like his campaign is the repository of endorsements of terrible people that you should
00:19:42.320 never buy anything from. You should never trust anything they say. These people have ruined the
00:19:47.520 country. At least Freeland has mostly the backbenchers that you can't even name. Carney has all the people
00:19:54.400 who are terror supporters, people who are extremists, compromised by the CCP allegedly. And then also he has
00:20:02.080 all the worst ministers, Jolie. He has Heju. He has David Lamedi, the former MP, the worst
00:20:12.720 justice minister in Canadian history that is backing Mark Carney, the guy who helped freeze bank accounts,
00:20:20.640 who wanted to lock up truckers, the guy who pursued the Emergencies Act. That guy is backing Mark Carney.
00:20:27.520 And I still see people thinking Freeland's the worst option. Yes, we are talking about people who are
00:20:34.080 like, we're talking about one person who's like 10 out of 10.5 out of 11 bad, and someone who is like
00:20:40.960 10.7 out of 11 bad. But I still think Mark Carney is decisively the worst liberal leader. If you want
00:20:47.680 to vote in this liberal leadership race, and you don't already have a membership for the conservative
00:20:52.160 party, I do it. It's free. Buy a membership, vote for, I would say, Michael Smith, or Michael,
00:20:59.840 sorry, not Michael Smith, Michael Clark. He's a pro-life liberal who's like a 90s liberal trying
00:21:04.960 to take the party back. He could be a good option. Frank Bayless is probably the second least bad,
00:21:11.120 and then Chandra Aria is the funniest candidate, so I'd put him third. And then Jamie Batsy,
00:21:16.480 and then maybe Christian Freeland. If you're voting, that's the order you should vote in, because
00:21:21.360 we want the least bad to the worst in terms of our order, because the liberals need a more rational
00:21:27.200 leader in the medium term here. Because if the liberal party is not rational, it means we have
00:21:32.000 one good party, the conservative party, and then we have a bunch of insane parties. And if any of those
00:21:36.880 insane parties get into office, everything, you know, goes to crap again. I would have, I would rather 0.99
00:21:42.240 have it, we have a great party. And then we have a fine party. And then maybe there's a bad option
00:21:47.040 that we can always point to of like, don't be the NDB, because they're awful. If we had 90s liberals
00:21:52.080 back, it would be a dream to live in Canada right now, because you wouldn't have to be stressed out
00:21:56.560 by who's in government, because even that not great option is fine. They don't have contempt for you.
00:22:02.400 They don't want your business to fail. They generally understand the economy. They understand that you
00:22:07.200 can't spend, like, you can't spend money you don't have. All that good stuff. Anyways. So that's it for me
00:22:14.480 today, guys. Remember to like the video, subscribe to the channel, try to get to 100,000 subscribers by

00:22:25.520 Go legal fund. That's linked in the description below, as well as pinned at the top of the comments.
00:22:30.240 You can also sign up to my recommendation list if you guys want recommendations for good
00:22:36.000 nomination candidates in the Conservative Party. These are both federal and provincial nominations,
00:22:41.200 as well as leadership races. So for instance, in Manitoba right now, there's a great candidate for
00:22:47.200 the Progressive Conservative Party leadership in Manitoba, Wally Daldrich. He's great, a very orthodox,
00:22:53.600 across-the-board conservative. In New Brunswick, I'm hoping Chris Austin ends up running. And then across
00:22:59.200 the country, there are people that I would endorse as good candidates. I like Jeff Yang in Willowdale,
00:23:05.120 in Malahat. I really like Charles Borg. I really like in Abbotsford, South Langley, Steve Schaefer.
00:23:11.600 And as I go forward, I will be naming other people I like in other races.
00:23:16.000 But anyways, so that's it for me today, guys. Have a good one.
