Laurence Collins is quickly becoming my favourite politician in Canada. She's standing up for Canadians to make sure that they're not burdened by not freezing to death in the winter. And of course, she is a privileged woman who is an MP for the riding of Victoria, where she doesn't actually have to undergo negative 40 winters. She gets to be nice and comfortable in a far more temperate area of the country, not realizing that a bunch of us actually live in the real world.
00:00:00.420Victoria NDP MP Laurel Collins is quickly becoming my favorite politician in Canada.
00:00:07.260Who else is standing up for Canadians to make sure that they're not burdened by not freezing to death in the winter?
00:00:13.700I was sat here worried that I might be happy and healthy during the next winter.
00:00:18.940I might have a warm home to sit in and not freeze to death in.
00:00:22.600But Laurel Collins has come here to our rescue to hold oil and gas companies accountable for making sure that we all don't die.
00:00:31.940Obviously, I am being extremely facetious here, but that's really what MPs like Laurel Collins are getting after.
00:00:38.680They're mad that oil and gas companies and just generally oil and gas resources have made Canada and provinces, especially like Alberta, very prosperous, comfortable, and allowed us to be able to survive negative 40 winters without high casualty ratings.
00:00:55.240And of course, she is a privileged woman who is an MP for the riding of Victoria, where she doesn't actually have to undergo negative 40 winters.
00:01:03.960She gets to be nice and comfortable in a far more temperate area of the country, not realizing a bunch of us actually have to live in the real world.
00:01:11.660And we have real world sort of consequences in being places that she doesn't live in.
00:01:17.140She assumes that the boundaries of her riding must be like all of Canada.
00:01:21.660And she's wondering, why do we have to burn so much oil and gas in order to survive?
00:01:27.640Like, we should just move her out to, you know, northern Alberta and see what she thinks after just a little bit of time living in high level or in Yellowknife or somewhere like that, not realizing that maybe solar and wind isn't the best idea in the world for trying to fuel the economy and actually keep people safe in a cold climate in a Western developed nation.
00:01:49.920But this is what she posted today on her social media account.
00:01:53.560Laurel Collins says Canadians deserve better than dishonest oil and gas CEOs fueling the climate crisis and a federal government refusing to hold them accountable.
00:02:03.720You are part of the federal government right now.
00:02:06.300I'm sorry to break it to Laurel Collins here, but her boss, Mr. Jagmeet Singh, Mr. Sellout Singh, is currently propping up the liberal government.
00:02:15.240So if she's not happy on how fast the liberals are moving towards communism, well, she could always start voting against everything they want and show her boss that she's not willing to let the planet burn up or let people not die in the winter and, you know, have her complain.
00:02:30.840No, obviously she's not going to do that because even she probably knows in the back of her head that all her perspectives are really insane.
00:02:37.220Moving on, she says these CEOs spread misinformation claiming oil and gas emissions aren't increasing per capita emissions have actually been going down for years because we've become more efficient because, you know, capitalism is great.
00:02:50.540And our trucks, our vehicles, our heating, you know, systems have gotten so much more efficient.
00:02:55.900So, yeah, our raw emissions go up because she's backing mass immigration.
00:03:00.200So naturally, emissions are going to go up when you add more than a million people to the country in a given year because all those people need to not die and they also need heating in the winter.
00:03:09.800But, you know, she doesn't really want to look at the per capita numbers because, you know, that might put a big old hole in her narrative.
00:03:15.140And then it ends off saying we need an emissions cap and a windfall tax on oil and gas.
00:03:22.920Basically, they just mean, wow, you've been profitable this year, dirty capitalist scum.
00:03:28.020Well, you owe us all of that money because we've arbitrarily decided that you actually being good at business means that you've done something wrong because all these people couldn't run a lemonade stand without it going under.
00:03:38.720So they think that there is some sort of strange alchemy going on whenever a company or individual is actually successful.
00:03:45.960And because government programs are run so inefficiently and she thinks that's the gold standard for how things should be run because private companies are actually making money every year.
00:03:55.560It must be that they're stealing from people by, you know, heating their homes and not letting them die.
00:04:01.580Of course, Laurel Collins doesn't actually care if you die or not, unless you're liking for from a specific identity group that she cares about that day, because that's how the politics of a woman like Laurel Collins works.
00:04:14.480Well, I want to get to this clip here where she for some reason, again, she posts this on her own social media accounts.
00:04:22.740But she posted this not realizing how embarrassing it was.
00:04:25.980Like she's she's catching the oil and gas companies in a sort of gotcha.
00:04:30.940But at the end of the day, I don't think she realizes that, yeah, they are not fulfilling the caps or they don't want the caps in place despite them saying it because they're not stupid.
00:04:42.620They're just playing along and they've been humoring the NDP and the liberals on their crazy plans for years.
00:04:48.060There's a clear analysis that the oil and gas emissions cap is already set at a level that is so low that your companies could, you know, simply follow through on your voluntary climate commitments.
00:05:01.540So it's deeply concerning to me that I've heard you actively lobbying against an emissions cap.
00:05:08.000So either your intention is to delay climate action further so you can maximize your profits or delay communism.
00:05:14.060Communism, I can't believe these these corporations don't want to delay communism or want to delay communism.
00:05:23.200I don't know why she thinks is a good point.
00:05:24.940Like, I guess the NDP base likes this, but that's been the NDP's problem.
00:05:29.480Their base is so small and they only play to this ever shrinking group of hyper progressive college students.
00:05:35.560You never had any intention of filling fulfilling those climate commitments you made.
00:05:40.740I think the comments around the emissions cap are a bit different.
00:05:45.260I think what's been said is we don't need an emissions cap and that all the incentives that are present today are the incentives to reduce our emissions.
00:06:01.340Because the population keeps going up.
00:06:04.980There's more, not just incentives to produce more oil and gas.
00:06:08.660They must provide more oil and gas resources to city grids.
00:06:13.080They must actually produce more in order to fuel a country with an exploding population because of your mass immigration policies that you support.
00:06:21.920I'm not sure also why these people support such high immigration rates.
00:06:25.520When you're mostly, because Canada is obviously one of the coldest countries on the planet, why is it a smart move then to move people from places where it's warm, where you don't need to be constantly burning energy to not die, to move them to a country where you must do that?
00:06:39.180So from her own climate action perspective, she's a complete fool for wanting more people to be in a country where necessarily they need to make her cry in order to not die in the winter by burning oil and gas resources because wind and solar ain't doing it.
00:06:55.260If you followed the story of Alberta's grid almost failing back in this last winter because of the NDP canceling and like basically shutting down all the coal power plants and then replacing it with solar and wind that basically generates nothing during these deep freezes.
00:07:13.160But yeah, obviously the oil and gas companies don't want these artificial restrictions that don't make sense when, again, they have been reducing per capita emissions.
00:07:21.780She just wants it to be a raw cap, but a raw cap is absolutely unsensible.
00:07:27.560Like I don't want any cap on this stuff because I'm a capitalist and I think you should be able to do what you want as long as you're not, you know, poisoning rivers and whatnot.
00:07:37.140But even in her own, based on her own agenda, they're basically doing what she wants.
00:07:42.020They're just not going fast enough into like unprofitability.
00:07:45.640She wants them to absolutely like, you know, like fly into the side of a mountain like Komi and his friend did out in like wherever that was.
00:08:35.000And what he means by intensity is the per capita is how much for the jobs that they're doing.
00:08:40.840How much are they having to emit in order to basically fulfill these jobs?
00:08:46.040And obviously the intensity, the size of the jobs that they're having to fulfill with the amount of people in the country supplying power grids, being able to refine oil and gas for people's cars and all that.
00:08:56.140Obviously, the emissions have been going down.
00:08:57.580And that's not because of the government.
00:08:58.980It's because people are naturally incentivized to buy as much oil and gas products for as little money as possible and have those products last as long as possible.
00:09:07.860And I can tell you the same things happen with us.
00:09:31.360I believe even raw emissions have been falling.
00:09:33.480But that's mostly just because the economy has declined so much that the need for energy isn't there anymore simply because to be productive, you need energy.
00:09:42.640But the economy has been gutted through lockdown measures, higher taxes and whatnot, as well as the increased capital gains inclusion rate is going to make investment go somewhere else.
00:09:52.980And so that means like manufacturing, refining, a lot of other services, just industries in general, manufacturing, especially mining, are just leaving the country or they don't want to invest more.
00:10:03.120So that's how actually raw emissions have gone down.
00:10:05.980But her like kind of trying to giggle at them.
00:10:26.060And so I'm not going to destroy the whole country.
00:10:31.280I, as being generally Canadians, don't want to really destroy the country so that a highly privileged woman out in Victoria gets to feel like she's taking climate action.
00:10:44.100And I don't want to freeze to death for climate action.
00:10:47.420Just a little bit of like, you know, like a pesky little hang up I have with dying for stupid reasons.
00:10:54.680Anyways, but that should be it for me today, guys.
00:10:57.700I just quickly want to plug the TNT Give, Send, Go legal fundraiser we have linked in the description below and in the comments.
00:11:04.900If you guys want to contribute to that, it really helps us out.
00:11:08.420Pay for our legal costs for the stupid defamation case from a billionaire developer who is suing us for defamation that he has not actually provided any evidence for in over two and a half years of this case going on.
00:11:21.600People simply throwing the legal paperwork at you and forcing you into court, going through depositions and having to provide evidence for something that they know you didn't actually do wrong.
00:11:30.880But the amount of money that they have to pay in order to make you pay a similar amount means nothing to them.
00:11:36.180At the same time, I, at the start of this case, was a 22-year-old who could barely pay for any of this stuff.
00:11:42.040I was literally giving over 100% of my income into actually paying these fees.
00:11:46.020And I actually only started up the Give, Send, Go when I had exhausted all my funds.
00:11:49.760So if you guys can donate to that, it really helps me out.
00:11:52.500And just so that people know, I stopped plugging the fact that I'm running for the Conservative Party nomination in Calgary Signal Hill because I was randomly disqualified for no perceived reason, for no discernible reason, alongside Lila A.
00:12:10.720Hopefully, this will be taken care of.
00:12:12.780And if not, obviously, I'm going to have to start figuring out what the reason is through all the evidence I've collected of people coming after me in the background for no good reason other than it seems like they want somebody else to win.
00:12:24.360Other than that, I hope you guys have a great day.
00:12:27.180And I'll be back with another video later.
