00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. I know that Mark Carney is one of the worst politicians in Canadian
00:00:06.860 history, because if he wasn't one of the worst, he wouldn't be currently in a close leadership
00:00:12.300 battle with one of the other worst politicians in Canadian history, Chrystia Freeland. When this 0.99
00:00:18.580 Liberal Party leadership race first kicked off to find a replacement for Justin Trudeau,
00:00:23.320 it was slated as being a Mark Carney coronation. Mark Carney has superior resources, money,
00:00:30.540 and endorsements to Chrystia Freeland, but the problem is that he also is the candidate,
00:00:35.780 and he is politically incompetent. He could not shut his mouth for a second, and there are all 0.86
00:00:41.440 of these clips from both his past and his present coming out to haunt him, where he says ridiculous 0.96
00:00:47.260 or radical things, and shows how out of touch he is to the average Canadian. You've probably
00:00:53.020 already seen this clip where Mark Carney actually touts his background as a globalist and an elitist
00:00:59.240 as being a good thing. My strength is I know how the world works. I know how to get things done. I'm
00:01:04.600 connected. I can deliver for the country, and my weakness is, you know, people will charge me as
00:01:09.880 being elitist or, you know, a globalist, to use that term, which is, well, that's exactly, you know,
00:01:17.240 it happens to be exactly what we need. That clip reminds me of that clip of Senator Bernie Sanders
00:01:23.780 saying people criticize all of these socialist countries for having bread lines, but that's a
00:01:29.140 good thing because it means people are getting bread. So Mark Carney's saying, like, people are
00:01:33.880 saying that I'm an elitist controlling technocrat, but in fact, we should have an elitist controlling
00:01:40.260 technocrat leading Canada. You can feel Mark Carney's comms director quivering every time he gets
00:01:46.860 up in front of a crowd of people and starts talking because he causes so many fires, and now
00:01:52.360 it appears like Mark Carney is trying to hide himself from the public and just doing the most easy
00:01:58.760 interviews you've ever seen in your life, and when I say easy, I mean Rosemary Barton easy, and even
00:02:05.080 then, he is basically just putting people to sleep. Mark Carney only has two modes, putting people to
00:02:11.780 sleep and saying insanely radical things. This is why I have taken to calling him Mark's Carney, and I
00:02:19.960 want to get to that episode a little bit later. I called him that on social media, and the reaction
00:02:25.980 from liberals and leftists was hilarious, but here is Mark Carney on CBC trying to do some damage control
00:02:33.480 by doing his best John Kerry impression he has. One of the most important things we can do
00:02:39.160 for Canada, but also for the negotiations, is to concentrate on what we can control. We can't
00:02:44.760 control President Trump, but we can control what we do here at home to reinforce our economy, so that's
00:02:50.840 middle class tax cut, that's investing in infrastructure, it's building new trade routes,
00:02:55.240 it's doing all the things, it's having one Canadian economy instead of 13, and what I'm being more and more
00:03:01.400 clear about is exactly how I would do that if I am selected. And I will ask you some of those
00:03:06.280 questions, but I still think that it would be helpful. This is actual brain poison to watch,
00:03:12.120 and he's already trying to pivot himself into being the fiscally moderate guy. Maybe I would back tax cuts
00:03:18.840 for the middle class. He's not going to do it. Do you know how I know? Well, although Mark Carney
00:03:25.080 pretends that he's an outsider because he's never been elected, for the last four to five years, he has been
00:03:31.080 the economic advisor to Justin Trudeau. In fact, Chrystia Freeland can actually divest herself of her
00:03:37.240 terrible record as finance minister, because she can kind of rightfully claim she wasn't even making 1.00
00:03:42.760 decisions the last four years. Mark Carney was telling her what to do, and Justin Trudeau would
00:03:48.200 fire her if she didn't do it. I hope she brings that up at the debates, because it would absolutely
00:03:54.280 destroy his campaign. To put in perspective, if you haven't seen this poll result yet, Main Street
00:04:00.040 Research did a poll of only Liberal Party members, people who have Liberal Party memberships,
00:04:06.680 and it found that Mark Carney is only sitting at 38% support with Chrystia Freeland at 29 and Karina
00:04:13.800 Gould at 18. Ruby Dahl also has five, and Frank Bayles has two. That's pathetic. The Conservative Party
00:04:22.040 leadership race in 2022 was a peer poly of coronation, not because anyone was pulling strings or trying to
00:04:28.600 rig stuff. He was just extremely popular and won with like 68% of the vote, and I think on points it
00:04:34.840 was even more than that. It was crazy how big his win was. 38% is going to be him crawling across the
00:04:42.600 finish line. In fact, this entire leadership race right now reminds me of Hillary Clinton being unable to 0.99
00:04:50.280 put away Bernie Sanders in the 2016 primaries. When you're running in a presidential election, and it works the
00:04:56.680 same way if you're the prime ministerial candidate for your party in Canada, if you're in a party
00:05:02.040 leadership race or a primary, and you can't put away your somewhat kooky and uncharismatic opponent,
00:05:09.880 then you are in really big trouble. I know some people consider Bernie Sanders charismatic, but in
00:05:15.560 terms of his demographic appeals, he should be very easy to beat because he has no support with black or
00:05:21.160 Hispanic voters and it's mostly just middle-class hipster white people voting for him. And it still 0.74
00:05:26.520 took until after California, at like the end of the primary, for her to finally beat Bernie Sanders,
00:05:33.240 even with superdelegates on her side. And now this is also reminding me of Kim Campbell barely beating 1.00
00:05:39.640 Jean Chiré in 1993 when the PC party was also trying to make it a coronation. It's a pattern. If it's supposed
00:05:46.520 to be your coronation and it barely happens, you're not becoming prime minister or at least you're not
00:05:51.160 going to stay prime minister very long in Kim Campbell's case and potentially Mark Carney's.
00:05:57.000 But you look at the man's social media and it's just nothing. It's just him posting like some
00:06:03.880 boilerplate stuff about condemning anti-semitism in which it took him like several hours more than all
00:06:09.640 the other candidates and just posting stuff like this. Canadians want change. Together we can make
00:06:15.720 that happen. Join our campaign and commit to vote today. He's posting nothing. It's because he's a
00:06:21.960 gaff machine. You remember that clip from Kelowna where he said that the fentanyl crisis in Canada
00:06:27.560 is not a crisis. It's just a challenge. What? He's backed carbon credits. He's backed a carbon tax
00:06:35.320 tariff. He has backed oil and gas development in Brazil and the UAE but said that Canada shouldn't
00:06:41.560 be doing that. He has supported having massive government subsidies of green energy to build an
00:06:48.200 energy firewall against the United States if they ever cut off energy transportation to Canada. It's
00:06:55.160 asinine. At the same time, Chrystia Freeland, as an absolute dud of her candidate herself, is actually 1.00
00:07:02.120 starting to rack up more endorsements and it's because a lot of people are looking at Mark Carney.
00:07:08.040 They realize that this guy cannot walk five feet without stepping on his own shoelaces and they're
00:07:13.320 coming back to give a fourth look at Chrystia Freeland who's not particularly good at all. She's 0.99
00:07:19.400 actually getting some ministers and other senior liberal officials endorsing her right like Rob Oliphant
00:07:25.080 here. Other people, I'm trying to find other people she's gotten endorsements from. She keeps
00:07:30.360 reposting the same stuff. But she's gotten Jean Yip. Other liberal MPs are all coming up for her now. 1.00
00:07:37.160 John Aldegg, a former liberal MP, he lost his election as a BC NDP candidate recently to Harmon
00:07:43.400 Bangu in the provincial election. But she's starting to start racking up the endorsements once again. 0.88
00:07:49.400 And it's because Carney is actually a liability right now. The Liberal Party thought they were
00:07:54.680 getting the exterior of Carney. The button down central banker who appeals to a certain type of
00:08:01.240 older middle class voter. What they really got was what I refer to as Marx Carney because this guy is
00:08:08.920 the definition of what a Soviet technocratic economic manager would be back in the 1960s and 70s.
00:08:16.120 I had a post go viral today where I said that conservatives, not the conservative party
00:08:23.160 specifically, but just conservatives in Canada in general, should start referring to Mark Carney as
00:08:29.240 Marx Carney. And this post went very viral. It already has 112,000 views on X. And I did this as a
00:08:38.200 legitimate joke on the Liberals as well as the left in general in Canada. Because as soon as I referred to
00:08:44.520 him as Marx Carney, they all started running out of the woodwork to say, no, actually, he's not a Marxist
00:08:50.840 at all. He's not a communist. And then started proving me right in my more general point that he's a
00:08:56.840 big government technocrat. They start going through how he's basically a social democrat, that he is a
00:09:03.800 central banker. He is a Keynesian economist and stuff like that. It's like, guys, you are describing
00:09:11.640 60s socialist politics. You are describing, again, like I said, the sort of man that in Russia would
00:09:18.440 be the person telling you what to do, when to do it, and how exactly to do it. There's this idea that
00:09:25.640 all the communists in the Soviet Union and Maoist China were romantic revolutionaries like Joseph
00:09:31.880 Stalin or Mao Zedong. That's not really how it went. Yes, you had the crazy, uh, kleptocratic
00:09:39.400 psychos on top, like Mao and Stalin and Lenin and Pol Pot. But the people below them were other than 0.71
00:09:46.840 in Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge regime, because they killed anyone with glasses. But they would usually have 1.00
00:09:52.200 people staring at charts and trying to crunch the numbers, figuring out what should be put out,
00:09:58.280 how much money should go towards it, and how many workers should be hired and stuff like that.
00:10:03.240 That is exactly who Mark Carney is. He is a technocratic lefty who would be, who would fit in
00:10:10.200 perfectly in a Soviet department of economic management. I also have to show you the post I
00:10:16.360 got, because this was a great AI image I generated of Mark Carney himself, uh, that I think that really
00:10:23.080 drove the point home, and this post also went viral. So I've been kind of tearing it up today.
00:10:28.200 Make sure you guys follow me on X. I am a good time over there. But we have Mark Carney here.
00:10:34.280 And again, it does fit. Most people will get my point. I'm not meaning this literally,
00:10:40.600 but the fact that my point is generally correct, that the man is the sort of person who backs
00:10:45.960 central bank digital currency and wants to monitor what people spend and limit how much carbon that
00:10:53.000 you're emitting and how much meat you're eating is very telling. Nate Erkson Smith even endorsed the
00:10:58.520 man who is in favor of mass drug legalization, as well as trying to limit how much red meat people
00:11:05.240 consume because Nate Erkson Smith is a radical vegetarian. Anyways, I now want to bring up this
00:11:12.040 clip from the UNZone website of Mark Carney talking about basically trying to fast forward a green economy, 0.95
00:11:19.960 and again, like always, he ends up making himself look like a radical twit. 0.86
00:11:23.960 Exactly. This society is putting tremendous value on achieving net zero. So the companies 0.95
00:11:31.400 and those who invest in them and lend to them who are part of the solution will be rewarded. But those
00:11:37.160 who are lagging behind and are still part of the problem will be punished.
00:11:42.920 Does that sound like somebody who's just moderate? We're going to punish.
00:11:46.200 Dialogue has shifted from viewing climate change as a risk. And of course, it is an enormous risk.
00:11:52.840 We recognize that. But to seeing the opportunity, first point, and really translating that into a
00:11:59.720 single objective, which is to move our economies to net zero as quickly as possible. That's a tremendously
00:12:07.720 exciting development because what we have now in private finance is a focus on a clear goal,
00:12:14.360 net zero, and finding the opportunities to advance that and to be rewarded by it. And also at the same
00:12:22.760 time, not just for private finance to judge which companies are part of the solution. But what's
00:12:28.600 exciting and interesting and challenging for the private financial sector is increasingly they too
00:12:33.240 are being judged. So now what he is describing here is effectively a government incentive structure
00:12:39.960 to cause large investment hedge funds and whatnot to only pick government approved net zero companies.
00:12:47.800 This is the sort of thing that BlackRock and Larry Fink do through ESG scores. And Mark Carney is a big
00:12:54.200 believer in this and I don't think he's changed. I want to play one more clip of the man because again,
00:12:59.960 it's crazy how much ammunition this guy generates. The NRA must love him because this man generates
00:13:07.240 ammunition all day long. Here is him on Global News, that clip that Melissa Lansman, the deputy leader
00:13:15.160 of the Conservative Party highlighted that I think is quite good. Again, this man, these are recent clips
00:13:21.560 of his campaign. He cannot turn it off. He has no good answers to anyone saying, aren't you kind of
00:13:27.640 basically exactly the same as Justin Trudeau? If anything, that's giving him credit because he's
00:13:32.920 worse than Justin Trudeau. Especially considering a lot of the values you have, even the issues you
00:13:38.840 support are very much tied to similar things that the Prime Minister currently believes. First thing,
00:13:44.680 I agreed to build out a task force for growth for the Prime Minister. That task force for growth is now
00:13:51.480 embodied in me and the steps we're going to take forward. So he just confirms it right there,
00:13:56.360 even as he's trying to pivot off of him being exactly like Justin Trudeau. He just admits that
00:14:01.320 everything that Justin Trudeau was doing up to this point was put together by Mark Carney. The debates
00:14:07.480 could be a bloodbath right now because there is definitely blood in the water around Mark Carney's
00:14:12.840 campaign because I like to quote this Civil War, a little like paraphrasing a Civil War quote,
00:14:19.560 that while bringing superior forces and firepower to the battlefield, he also unfortunately brought
00:14:26.760 himself because Mark Carney is going to be a terrible debater. Especially in the French debate,
00:14:33.240 where Frank Bayliss is going to run circles around him and Karina Gould and Chrystia Freeland obviously
00:14:40.120 also have better French than he does. Frank Bayliss has the best because he's from Montreal,
00:14:44.840 and what I've heard is that Mark Carney's French is meh. And right now, if he starts losing Quebec
00:14:51.080 voters, his path to victory might fade very quickly. And then the English debate, he'll have Ruby Dalla 0.83
00:14:56.840 to contend with, who looks like she is just preparing to just throw haymakers at the guy 1.00
00:15:02.600 the entire time. And if the Liberal Party ends up with Chrystia Freeland, I really don't see them as
00:15:08.680 being in a better position than they would be with Mark Carney. I think both of them basically pose
00:15:14.680 the same problem to the Liberal Party. Mark Carney on paper is better because he's less well known
00:15:19.880 and has less baggage, but he has different types of baggage. It's just not as directly connected to
00:15:26.120 Trudeau as it is for Freeland because she's been standing beside the guy for nine years. With Mark Carney,
00:15:32.520 it's more so that there is a closet full of thousands of skeletons that's kind of open right
00:15:38.200 now. But if he wins and becomes the leader and the prime minister, that thing is going to be thrown
00:15:43.160 open by the Conservatives and a lot of other influencers online, and they're going to pour out
00:15:47.800 in front of Canadians with every one of his far left ideas. He is an economic manager. He's not a free
00:15:54.200 market guy. My whole Mark Carney op today proved that because all the Liberals who are supporting him
00:16:01.240 would never say he's free market because they don't want a free market guy. They criticize
00:16:05.720 Pierpolia for being the free market guy, but they can't say he's a communist, but I also never accused
00:16:11.240 him of being a communist. They just have to use weasel words to describe a technocratic busybody
00:16:17.720 without admitting that he's effectively a socialist. Anyways, so that should be it for me today, guys.
00:16:25.720 Support me by liking this video, subscribing to the channel, and leaving me a comment.
00:16:30.680 As much fun as I have covering politics, the liberal leadership race is also extremely annoying
00:16:35.720 to cover because these people are the worst, and there's really no bright spots to talk about
00:16:41.480 other than anticipating their failure one day when Pierpolia beats them. But anyways,
00:16:47.080 so that should be it for me. See you guys later.
