00:00:00.000 If you are a conservative Albertan, without a doubt, your least favorite politician is not Prime Minister Mark Carney.
00:00:07.660 It's not former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. It's Alberta NDP leader Nahid Nenshi.
00:00:13.760 He is the perfect combination of extremely smug and always wrong.
00:00:19.000 He is constantly nitpicking everything Premier Danielle Smith says and does,
00:00:23.460 but now it looks like his own political career is over, as his past as Calgary's mayor is catching
00:00:30.020 up to him. You see, Naheed Nenshi was the mayor of Calgary from 2009 to 2021, and over that time,
00:00:39.080 he fixed basically nothing when it comes to Calgary's water infrastructure, and right now
00:00:44.540 we are suffering the consequences. Over the past few years, we have been having massive water main
00:00:50.880 breaks that have been shutting off water to significant parts of the city and it all originates 0.98
00:00:56.400 back to when nenshi was the mayor and fixed nothing in favor of stupid vanity projects 0.93
00:01:03.440 no we can't actually fix any of our crumbling water infrastructure we need ugly art projects 0.95
00:01:09.200 and bike lanes that was nenshi's entire approach to being mayor do surface level popular stuff
00:01:16.720 and let the next mayors deal with all the critical infrastructure failures except obviously it was
00:01:22.160 going to get back to him there is this new report out showing that when he was mayor back in 2016
00:01:29.600 he and his office was handed a report that had nine recommendations attached to it on how to
00:01:35.040 address calgary's crumbling water infrastructure and he hid five of the recommendations from
00:01:42.160 counsel he can say well i don't recall doing any doing any of that or the report doesn't
00:01:47.920 specifically identify me as having done anything wrong but very clearly the buck stops with him
00:01:53.760 and when council was not given these critical recommendations that is his fault and in just a
00:01:59.920 second here i want to show you guys an amazing video of him being asked questions about this
00:02:05.280 and getting very snippy which is his tell whenever he's in the wrong but before we get into the video
00:02:10.960 i just want to remind you guys one i wyatt claypool am running for a ucp nomination for
00:02:17.280 the riding of calgary curry in southwest calgary it's kind of bordering into downtown and kind of
00:02:23.520 goes west up to sarsi trail so if you live in that area check out my website pinned at the top of the
00:02:29.440 comments wyattclaypool.com sign up and i'll try and reach out and call you if you live in the area
00:02:34.560 to make sure you have a ucp membership and of course if you don't live there do the normal
00:02:39.040 things like the video share it subscribe do all that fantastic stuff now let's get into the video
00:02:45.680 of alberta ndp leader naheed nenshi getting very uncomfortable and snippy as he's asked questions
00:02:51.920 by journalists who let's be clear outside of like someone from the western standard would normally
00:02:56.960 be on his side but he's messed up so badly here even they are forced to ask him questions about
00:03:02.240 his record on the water report so uh the goldie report says the rap telus report says that some
00:03:10.720 of the same recommendations that were made in 2024 were also made to you and your chief of staff
00:03:16.800 in 2015-16 what is your recollection of that this is very strange uh there was certainly already a
00:03:24.080 report from mr keifer that was very deep on these issues but the government wanting to do another
00:03:32.560 investigation i will tell you that the question i have not yet heard asked is how much did that
00:03:37.920 cost the city of calgary see immediately his deflection on this is saying oh how much money
00:03:44.080 did uh this report cost for the alberta government to do apparently it's like 1.2 million dollars or
00:03:49.920 something like that he's now going to speculate a little bit later that it's 40 million dollars
00:03:54.720 it costs them and then she's uh very bad at actually trying to guess numbers he tried to
00:03:59.600 predict that the alberto referendum questions would cost 200 million dollars in order to conduct that
00:04:05.920 very high turnout election it was only about like 80 to 90 million dollars and here he's going to
00:04:11.520 try to inflate the cost of the report to make it seem like the real issue is how much the report
00:04:16.720 must have cost but the report was done the new investigation was done to try and get more at
00:04:23.200 the root problem of what happened with the water main breaks and the 24 report was more so trying
00:04:29.280 to compile all the issues from the past and tell council what they should be doing this report is
00:04:34.320 trying to find the origins of the problems which picked up one of the big problems was that and
00:04:40.080 then she was given the report in 2016 or his office but that's really him when they were given
00:04:45.920 in the report in 2016, they just, you know, happened to not tell council about five out of
00:04:51.880 the nine recommendations, which you can't do that accidentally, because the easiest thing to do
00:04:57.620 would just be taking the report and giving it to council, and they can look at all the
00:05:01.320 recommendations and all the minutiae themselves. They specifically only gave them four, which were
00:05:07.040 the more minor recommendations that wouldn't have addressed the real problem. The other five were
00:05:11.740 full of things that would have been more that would have told you a lot of things need to be
00:05:16.100 replaced a lot more money needed to go towards fixing things the alberta like the calgary's
00:05:21.640 water whatever the authority is that that oversees the water infrastructure was not spending its
00:05:27.320 money properly its execution time on actually fixing things was slow that's a lot of the things
00:05:32.820 that were just not given to council that could have been actually actioned on in order to fix
00:05:38.180 the problems but i'll let nenshi keep going and making excuses but that's effectively the
00:05:43.380 lay of the land here and he wants to make this all about oh my goodness uh they're all coming
00:05:47.620 after old nenshi because they are just scared of him which is an actual media defense he's made
00:05:52.340 after this uh video oh they're just scared of me that's why they're coming after old nenshi
00:05:58.660 my rough estimate of how much this investigation cost would be 40 to 15 million dollars
00:06:03.060 that's a big number my recommendation my estimate on how much this cost is 40 billion dollars
00:06:12.820 notice how i just said a really big number there you should focus on that really big number the
00:06:17.740 funny thing is none of the media actually picked up really on his estimate of how much it costs
00:06:22.240 because it's just a nonsense number the number that we know so far is 1.2 million that was the
00:06:27.340 entire contract for the main guy who conducted the the investigation and his staff that's it
00:06:34.140 but he just he's just claiming 40 40 to 50 million out of literally nowhere this this one this goldie
00:06:40.700 report you're talking about it's a million dollars it's a million dollars for goldie you have to ask
00:06:46.020 the question how much did the city spend creating 58 000 pages of documents no no no they did not
00:06:53.080 create 58,000 documents. They used 58,000 documents that were related to the water issue
00:07:00.600 from over the past 20 plus years. Because some of the problems actually do go back to times like
00:07:06.220 2004, 2006, where some of them could have been actioned on. Obviously, as the timeline moves on,
00:07:12.140 the people who are at the more critical, when the issue is getting more critical,
00:07:16.420 you have less of an excuse not to act. He was basically the last mayor who could have acted,
00:07:21.020 Because as much as I don't like Gondek, and I'm growing to really not like Jeremy Farkas, it's not their fault. It's way too late. And the water issue started basically popping loose under Gondek and continued under Farkas. But that's at the point where it was unavoidable. It was avoidable under him. But now he's estimating, oh, it's 40 to $50 million to do this report, because there's 58,000 documents. Did you read the report?
00:07:44.720 No, the 58,000 documents are like all of the documents related to the Calgary Water Infrastructure Authority, the overseeing one, the management of the city, the government, everything.
00:07:56.680 The mayor's office, that's where all the documents are coming from.
00:07:59.180 It's not like a team of like 300 people generating these reports and they're all being paid massive amounts of money.
00:08:06.260 It's like, no, no, no, they're taking from 58,000 pages in order to compile the report.
00:08:10.640 It doesn't cost that much to do an investigation like this.
00:08:13.560 Apparently, the entire cost of the whole thing is $1.2 million, which is pretty much what it
00:08:20.060 costs to do most things like this. Apparently, there was another similar investigation into
00:08:25.180 something happening in Strathmore, Alberta, which is a town of like, I don't know, like 20,000 people
00:08:31.020 or something like that. And that one cost $900,000. This is effectively equivalent to what most sort
00:08:37.480 of in-depth investigations into issues like this end up costing. Hiring every lawyer in Calgary
00:08:42.820 to represent folks it'll be in the tens of millions of dollars that's what this government
00:08:48.760 does so i will read i will refer you to one line it's a very simple line it's in the first part of
00:08:55.380 the executive summary i haven't read the whole report but i got one line off the first page
00:08:59.160 yet very clearly he did not read the whole report considering how much he's missing he's
00:09:04.140 misinterpreting it what it says already to the media he already got the numbers wrong and how
00:09:09.680 much it cost. And now he's going to read us a out of context line on the first page in order to try
00:09:15.980 and exonerate himself. And that one line is the evidence does not establish that the mayor
00:09:21.700 directly or knowingly approved the omissions. Why would you even need that line?
00:09:28.840 It's just throwing it in there. It's more of a formality. It goes through and says who's
00:09:34.220 actually to blame here. And in a lot of ways, the report basically says it's just kind of
00:09:39.240 oversights over and over again by many individuals over time. That's not exonerating
00:09:44.680 Nenshi. It's basically Goldie saying that he cannot read the mind of Nahid Nenshi or his
00:09:51.120 office staff. They do not know that they directly or intentionally. He can't prove it because he
00:09:56.960 can't prove something that's in someone's head. You can't prove he directly did this to try and
00:10:02.580 ruin Calgary's water infrastructure. Obviously, he can't. That doesn't actually get him off the
00:10:07.680 hook. So, okay, so maybe you are not malicious. I didn't think you were malicious. So the only
00:10:13.740 other answer is you're deeply incompetent or stupid. You don't know what you're doing. You 1.00
00:10:18.920 got the report. You didn't even know what it said. You're like, oh, I guess I'll only give four
00:10:22.960 recommendations to counsel. Now, that seems somewhat deliberate to me because you had to
00:10:27.480 make the choice to cut up the recommendations and only give some to counsel and withhold other ones.
00:10:33.540 it was and the buck stops with you you're the mayor you should be the one just saying just
00:10:38.360 release every release the report to everyone they all need to know it but they didn't do that
00:10:42.420 and if you didn't and if you did it unintentionally or somehow you were just not aware that your own
00:10:48.840 staff filleted the report and sent it to council incomplete why should you be premier of the
00:10:55.280 province if this is your actual defense for crumbling water infrastructure in calgary well 0.96
00:11:01.540 the report says i didn't directly or knowingly try and hide stuff from council i'm just so stupid i 0.89
00:11:07.380 don't know what actual critical information is that council needs to know so i gave them a crappy 0.58
00:11:12.660 version of the report that led to infrastructure failing because i didn't it's because this
00:11:18.820 government put out a personal vendetta to try and find a smoking gun on me and they use taxpayer
00:11:25.540 money that could have been used for other it could have been used to fix water pipes or fill potholes
00:11:31.540 What a dweeb in the middle of after a report comes out saying that for far less money, a decade ago, we could have we could have averted the crisis of massive water main breaks all over the city of Calgary that shut off people's water and have made it so that you can only take three minute showers.
00:11:53.620 Well, the money for this report showing that I'm completely incompetent could have been could have gone towards filling potholes or fixing water pipes.
00:12:01.540 Have you not learned your lesson here, sir? You could have done that a decade ago, and we wouldn't be in this mess right now. And now you are going to, you know, flutter your eyelashes at the reporters and say, well, you know, if Smith and their government wasn't doing this vendetta investigation for $40 million, a number I pulled out of nowhere, they could be fixing water pipes right now.
00:12:25.240 Sure, sure.
00:12:26.260 Yeah, they could have taken that $1.2 million and fixed the water problem in Calgary.
00:12:32.320 Except now fixing the problem costs way more money because it's harder to fix a critical rupture, a massive break in the water infrastructure,
00:12:42.000 than repair it before it becomes a crisis and just be repairing and replacing things slowly over time.
00:12:49.020 We could have saved billions probably if we did this a couple of, like, 10 years ago.
00:12:54.180 At least hundreds of millions could be saved, but now we're having to spend way more money fixing things in critical condition as it blows out, and we need to spend money bringing people clean water into parts of the city where water had to be turned off for like a month at a time.
00:13:10.940 Like, really? This is what you're going to try and shame the government for spending $1.2 million when people couldn't take a shower because of you?
00:13:21.060 Or do all the things municipalities have to do?
00:13:23.540 So let me tell you this. I met with the regional municipality of Wood Buffalo this week.
00:13:28.160 There is one bridge that has been delayed by the provincial government for seven years.
00:13:33.960 This bridge would reduce the emergency access time from the oil sands from 90 minutes to 14 minutes.
00:13:42.580 It would have cost less than this investigation.
00:13:44.880 No, no, no, no, no. Stop reciting things and saying we could have paid for it with the money that we used on this investigation.
00:13:51.600 You don't have a source to actually prove that the investigation costs that much.
00:13:57.440 Nenshi's very much that guy who has this arrogant attitude about things that he has no clue about.
00:14:03.600 He's being so smug about it.
00:14:05.720 He's been caught, and he's acting smug about mythical money spent on an investigation that he says could have been used to fix a bridge somewhere else.
00:14:14.780 Should that bridge be fast-tracked?
00:14:16.900 I don't know. Maybe.
00:14:17.820 but maybe is not the time to try and be a smug jerk about the entire thing man maybe say yeah 0.97
00:14:24.700 i think we should have acted on that maybe there was some slip-ups in our office and that full 0.90
00:14:28.880 report should have been put out but we didn't think it was as bad as we thought he doesn't
00:14:32.740 want to talk about it because if he actually addresses the issue head-on voters will come
00:14:37.520 to the inevitable conclusion this man cannot be premier because if you cannot fix a water pipe
00:14:42.960 in the city of calgary not even fix a water pipe tell someone to go fix a water pipe if you cannot
00:14:47.740 tell someone to go fix a water pipe after getting a report on your desk saying, oh my goodness,
00:14:53.320 please fix the water pipes. You should not be the premier of the province. I feel like it's
00:14:57.260 simple as that. We should have the water pipe test for everyone running for office. We sit in a room
00:15:02.020 and we just say, hey, in just a second here, we're going to suddenly get you to make like a big,
00:15:07.840 we need you to make a crisis decision. You're just sitting there, quiet room, and someone busts and
00:15:13.220 puts a report on your desk. They're like, the water's infrastructure is failing. What should
00:15:17.500 we do fix it or put up ugly art projects and spend on bike lanes and if you say anything other than 0.99
00:15:24.100 fix the water pipe you are banned from running from or that office so like nenshi you shouldn't
00:15:29.040 be banned because i want to it would be funny to see him fail which he is going to fail but my he
00:15:34.000 failed the water pipe test oh we have like a nuclear a nuclear reactor is going to melt down
00:15:40.840 next to the city unless we make some basic upgrades over the next two years should we do
00:15:45.340 that or should we hold a corn festival and like nenshi would pick the corn festival because he's
00:15:50.360 like that dull did you see the recommendations in 2015 before they're presented to council
00:15:58.040 i don't recall them specifically we do he's lying oh i don't recall i don't recall you don't recall
00:16:05.260 the report screaming at you that the water infrastructure in places like bear's paw was
00:16:11.760 failing you just didn't oh i don't recall i don't recall that means you do recall and if you don't 1.00
00:16:16.560 recall you're stupid you are dumb if you didn't know that it hit your desk and it was filleted 1.00
00:16:21.280 before it went to council you are dangerously incompetent and should not be even dog catcher 1.00
00:16:26.800 in alberta a million consultant reports as you can imagine the mayor office always gets briefed 0.70
00:16:33.840 the mayor's office does not direct administration on what to present and that we don't we don't
00:16:40.320 direct administration on what to present okay but when you saw the report that the other councillors
00:16:47.040 got to read the version that they were allowed to see and you saw that five out of nine of the
00:16:52.400 recommendations were not included for the councillors to see many of those being the more
00:16:57.920 critical recommendations you didn't say oh my goodness city manager what the heck are we doing
00:17:03.200 can we give them the rest of the report here you sat there doing either either he sat there too
00:17:08.640 dumb to actually act or he was absolutely fine with them giving counsel the filleted version 0.55
00:17:15.440 of the report because he wanted to spend money on bike lanes and he wanted to spend money on 1.00
00:17:20.800 stupid blue ring art projects he wanted to spend money on a calgary olympics bid that was also that 0.89
00:17:28.160 also cost the mini uh the the city tens of millions of dollars and was rejected and now 0.99
00:17:34.400 Now he's just going to say, I don't recall, and it's the city administration's job to do it.
00:17:39.020 You're the one who leads the city administration.
00:17:41.140 They can say, oh, the city manager is technically actually in charge of that.
00:17:44.340 You're the mayor. 1.00
00:17:45.260 The buck stops with you, and you chose to spend money on stupid garbage, 1.00
00:17:50.620 not actually necessary, like, bare basic utilities that the city is supposed to provide. 1.00
00:17:57.300 City Utility and Services, the three basic ones, the city is supposed to provide.
00:18:01.980 You can basically do nothing other than these three, and you've succeeded as mayor.
00:18:05.540 Police, water, or we can say police and fire.
00:18:10.840 Water, and roads.
00:18:13.400 It's those three.
00:18:14.620 You get the roads clean.
00:18:16.160 You don't replace them with bike lanes like he did, although he did do that.
00:18:21.100 Water, make sure that people, when they turn on the tap and they flush the toilet, it's working.
00:18:25.140 and making sure that people are the fire departments funded and the police are going
00:18:30.160 around making sure people aren't being stabbed that's all you need to do and he failed and he 0.98
00:18:34.400 failed on all three of them really he sucks at his job and now he wants to be the premier
00:18:37.900 report so i'll just say one last thing on this which is that report was one report 10 years ago
00:18:43.500 that had nothing whatsoever to do with anything that would have changed a thing on the various
00:18:48.040 our water main break it had to do with the financial ratio analysis of the utility but
00:18:53.880 yes yes because it was this there was a spending problem when it came to upgrading infrastructure
00:19:00.520 that was becoming critically like that was becoming like basically the condition was
00:19:06.920 falling under like under the category of critical and a lot of the recommendations had to do with
00:19:13.240 the fact that the spending from that authority is not going to the place that needs to like repairs 0.98
00:19:20.520 him acting like it wouldn't have fixed anything is stupid he's basically hanging his hat on the 0.97
00:19:25.560 fact that the report does not literally say do this to stop the bear's paw water main break 0.97
00:19:30.920 that's going to happen in 10 years but the whole point is that you have to be constantly fixing
00:19:35.160 things and making sure that infrastructure isn't in critical condition so stuff like that doesn't
00:19:39.880 happen you can never predict if it's going to happen next year or in 20 years but if it's in
00:19:44.360 bad shape it will eventually happen when things are in good shape technically you could still see
00:19:49.640 a break because of a technical a technical issue that was unforeseen but when it is foreseeable
00:19:56.440 and you are not dealing with the fact that so much of calgary's water infrastructure and road
00:20:01.160 infrastructure which is also a problem under his watch is falling under like the unacceptable
00:20:06.520 category of how bad the shape is in, then it is your fault for not dealing with it. It doesn't
00:20:11.140 have to literally say do this and you will avoid this thing from happening for it to be an obvious
00:20:16.100 conclusion most people will draw that we will have water main breaks if you don't start fixing
00:20:20.580 the water pipes. This man wants to be the premier. I'm going to keep saying that. This man wants to
00:20:25.120 be the premier and he couldn't fix water pipes. The only thing they could find was this one report
00:20:29.220 and they wasted a bunch of taxpayer money looking for something that the investigator clearly says
00:20:33.900 there is no evidence of any wrongdoing on my part, and I have been completely exonerated.
00:20:38.560 No, no. The report does not say he's completely exonerated. He's declaring himself exonerated
00:20:43.580 because the report says that he did not do, and is not aware that he did anything. He took part
00:20:50.220 in any direct wrongdoing. That doesn't mean that he was not incompetent. That does not mean that
00:20:56.700 he was not flat-footed. It means basically they can't prove he sat in his office cackling and
00:21:02.640 saying, I'm going to fillet this report and send a badly flawed version of it to council so that
00:21:09.280 there will be water main breaks. Obviously, he didn't do that. And he's acting like because he
00:21:14.400 was not provably malicious, ergo he has done nothing wrong, which is obviously two different
00:21:20.240 things. It's two different categories. His incompetence can absolutely be wrong. He doesn't
00:21:28.220 need to chew through the pipe himself to be at fault. He's at fault for being derelict in his
00:21:33.060 duty. So they're saying you withheld information? No, they're not. They are absolutely not saying
00:21:38.480 that. Read the report. Should I read it to you again? There is no evidence, or the evidence does
00:21:44.440 not directly establish, excuse me, I'm going to try again, the evidence does not establish that
00:21:49.160 the mayor directed or knowingly approved these omissions. So no, they're not saying that.
00:21:53.380 Okay, do we have any other questions? You're still in charge of your office.
00:21:58.220 The report's just saying we don't know that he specifically had told his office to flay the report before it was given to counsel so that they were unaware of the recommendations.
00:22:08.560 They were still unaware of the recommendations, and he at least either he directed them.
00:22:13.520 We don't have any evidence to establish that directly. 0.96
00:22:16.100 Either he directed them to do this, or he's so stupid that when they gave them a flawed report, he didn't have any clue about it, and he didn't do anything to fix the problem. 0.96
00:22:25.740 no no let's one more go ahead well also well hang on let's jump in he said that there was 0.96
00:22:32.760 not enough to say whether or not you did not necessarily that you did not
00:22:36.900 is what he told us i'm glad that he said that but that is spin of the utmost you can't say
00:22:44.040 that somebody committed a crime by saying oh there is no evidence they didn't there's also
00:22:49.120 no evidence i didn't go on a booze cruise uh mr nenshi that the inspector does there's a few
00:22:55.000 pages that does not paint a very positive light of of that specific moment 10 years ago um and
00:23:00.920 i think i mentioned in three paragraphs in 125 page report so i would suggest look at the other
00:23:06.200 124 pages any questions or anything else but yeah of course the whole report is not about him it's
00:23:13.000 about the entire origins of the problem and how it grew over time and how basically city
00:23:18.520 administration including people like mayor nenshi were not dealing with the problem that's his thing
00:23:24.520 is that when he had to when he had time to act over 12 years he didn't act he would have had
00:23:31.320 access to all the reports showing that they were not actually properly deploying money in order to
00:23:36.760 do infrastructure upgrades or fix things that was apparently a chronic issue over time it wasn't
00:23:42.120 that they didn't have the funding to do it at times it was that they weren't really spending
00:23:45.960 the money properly on doing upgrades they weren't executing properly on making sure the upgrades
00:23:51.720 were happening and things were being fixed it was just kind of badly managed and he at the end of
00:23:56.780 the day is the mayor who should be making fixes over a 12-year period to make sure that the
00:24:02.320 upgrades in places like Bear's Paw are happening so that we don't have massive water main breaks
00:24:06.980 taking out access to water in places like Bear's Paw and Bowness and other parts of the city like
00:24:12.700 this shouldn't be that complicated but this isn't the only thing currently dogging Nenshi's political
00:24:19.820 career right now. He has the water thing, but he also has the Forever Canada issue. And that is
00:24:26.300 that Forever Canada, one of the groups hysterically opposing the independence referendum. Now,
00:24:32.720 I'm not pro-independence. I did not vote for independence on the referendum, but I cannot
00:24:37.540 stand all the anti-independence groups that were acting like this is a hysterical last stand for
00:24:44.840 Alberta. And unless they throw everything at the wall, we're going to separate and it's all
00:24:49.660 Premier Danielle Smith's fault for putting us at risk. No, it was never going to happen. If you
00:24:55.400 talk to anyone in suburban Calgary or Edmonton, you knew that was never going to happen and the
00:25:00.380 referendum was going to fail. In fact, probably at least half the people who voted for independence
00:25:04.960 are not actually hardcore pro-independence people. They're really just people who want to send Ottawa
00:25:10.060 a message. Disproportionately, that was probably most of the people who even voted option two
00:25:14.580 in the city of Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, and Lethbridge.
00:25:18.900 But with these groups, the funny thing is Nemchi has such a big ego.
00:25:24.480 He cannot get along with these organizations that collected a massive amount of data
00:25:29.380 during this hysterical anti-independence campaign.
00:25:32.780 And one of the biggest groups, Forever Canada, led by former PC MLA Thomas Lukaszak,
00:25:39.300 who's basically a liberal, he is thinking of now starting his own political party or potentially
00:25:45.980 merging with the progressive Tories or the Alberta Liberals in order to give him a shot to win a seat
00:25:51.640 in the next provincial election. This cannot be understated as being something that will shred
00:25:57.920 the votes of the Alberta NDP. Well, would a Forever Canada party or one that Forever Canada
00:26:04.560 is associated with hurt the UCP too? Yes, but everything in politics is relative to how much
00:26:10.620 your opponent is being helped or hurt. The NDP would lose like three votes for every one vote
00:26:16.280 that the UCP loses to a new vehicle backed by Forever Canada. So right now we have Nenshi,
00:26:23.180 who really the referendum only helped him temporarily, and it's way too far out from
00:26:27.680 the next election to really be good for him. We now have Forever Canada potentially starting
00:26:32.080 another party that will hurt the NDP badly because nobody really likes Nenshi when you look at his
00:26:36.720 approval ratings despite the media trying to make him a thing and now we also have this water
00:26:42.040 investigation proving the man is completely incompetent which makes his smug attitude so
00:26:47.680 much worse and I'm going to love watching the legislature's question period when he tries to 0.91
00:26:53.260 get up and push his finger at Danielle Smith at the same time everyone knows he's an incompetent 0.92
00:27:00.280 buffoon who's now trying to attack the UCP over, like, a $3,000 charge when a minister was in 0.98
00:27:07.300 Kentucky. Who cares? You know, if someone spent money or expensed something wrong, yeah, that
00:27:12.880 should be corrected. The NDP will make, like, a three-day-long QP theme around a misallocation
00:27:20.920 of $3,000 at the same time that they're being led by Naheed Menchie, who could not properly
00:27:27.660 allocate the city's budget to avoid massive water main failures. You couldn't write something
00:27:34.380 this funny in a comedy. Anyways, so with all that being said, thank you guys for watching,
00:27:42.100 especially if you're from Alberta. Again, I want to plug that I, Wyatt Claypool, am running for
00:27:47.620 a UCP nomination in the city of Calgary, that being Calgary Curry in the southwest. You can
00:27:53.760 always look up the map if you want to see where that is it's a the riding boundaries actually did
00:27:58.340 not change during this last election and so apparently now the NDP can win re-election
00:28:03.560 because it wasn't quote-unquote gerrymandered against them but actually I do think it's a
00:28:08.440 very winnable riding despite the NDP having won it by 13% last time because the current NDP MLA 0.95
00:28:15.200 Janet Aramanco is absolutely nuts she was associated with a drug non-profit before she 1.00
00:28:21.440 became an NDP MLA she's currently their addictions critic she wants to bring all the drug consumption 1.00
00:28:26.920 sites back online she wants safe supply drugs to be flooded into Alberta and she also wants 0.99
00:28:33.440 drug housing that like in BC probably will not actually require someone to get clean in order
00:28:39.120 to live in it and it will be located in suburban areas of Calgary completely destroying communities
00:28:44.040 that's the person I'm running against and the funny thing is that despite this person having
00:28:48.960 just nuts views because the media is so pro-MDP. Most people do not know this about her, but I'm
00:28:56.000 going to be working hard making sure everyone knows what Aramanco actually thinks on drugs.
00:29:00.860 But with all that being said, thank you guys for watching. Once again,
00:29:04.340 like, share, subscribe, and I'll see you all next time.
