The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Pathetic： Media attacks Poilievre because Carney is flopping!

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. It's pretty obvious at this point that Prime Minister

00:00:05.180 Mark Carney and his Liberal government are not doing very well right now. We can check out the

00:00:10.700 polling which shows that they spiked right after the election because they just got back into

00:00:15.260 office and then slowly descended back into a very competitive polling position with the

00:00:21.320 Federal Conservatives. But you don't even have to look at the polling to realize that the Liberals

00:00:26.780 are in trouble. Just look at the legacy media coverage which is now attacking Pierre Polyev,

00:00:32.620 the leader of the Federal Conservatives, over complete nonsense because there is nothing

00:00:37.920 really good to report about Carney's government right now. Now they'll cover his press conferences

00:00:43.560 when he announces random stuff that won't actually get done, but they don't actually have any positive

00:00:49.500 news to report. Yeah, they can try and make these announcements sound positive, but the average

00:00:54.440 person eventually will be like, well, that's not happening for two years, so who really cares?

00:00:59.220 And so now the media is just attacking Polyev for having an opinion that the vast majority of

00:01:05.720 Canadians also have, which is that former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or other members of his

00:01:11.740 Liberal government could have been criminally charged for all of the corruption that went on

00:01:16.820 those 10 years. But if you're in the legacy media, this is shocking. This is so anti-Canadian

00:01:23.520 to want people taking part in criminal activity to be charged for their criminal activity. Now,

00:01:31.240 I'm pretty nuanced, and if you don't like nuance, you will hate this video because I will actually

00:01:35.900 eventually get into some on the right who are attacking Polyev over stuff later on in this video

00:01:40.720 and why I find it kind of dishonest or at the very least unfair. But on this particular story of the

00:01:48.080 media going after Polyev saying that Trudeau should have been charged, I'm not the type of guy who

00:01:53.920 demands that heads roll every time something corrupt happens in government, every time that money is

00:01:59.640 misused. I don't think that we should be always raising everything to the level of someone must go

00:02:05.720 for this, someone must be put in prison for this. Sometimes government just sucks. But with Trudeau,

00:02:11.220 it was so obvious, the corruption, and it happened so consistently, and it was covered up so feverishly,

00:02:20.200 you know something criminal happened. But the media is acting like Polyev saying that he should be

00:02:25.300 charged is like him, is like, you know, wacko peer Polyev, just bizarro peer Polyev coming out here

00:02:33.100 to say that Justin Trudeau should go to prison while we all don't think that. I read the other day,

00:02:39.060 it was just yesterday, an APTN article, the Aboriginal, I think it's like a television and

00:02:45.240 media outlet, it's government subsidized. And even they had an op-ed talking about how Trudeau

00:02:50.820 and the liberal government basically got away scot-free without criminal charges because the

00:02:55.380 RCMP just did not do their job in investigating. Polyev said that the RCMP effectively helped cover

00:03:01.540 it up because they effectively helped cover it up. They really didn't push for the documents.

00:03:05.740 They really didn't push for testimony from certain employees that could have blown it all open.

00:03:10.640 And then they closed their investigation, recommending no charges, because they didn't

00:03:15.160 really investigate. Because the upper echelon of the RCMP is very political. And they tend to be

00:03:22.560 the right-hand men and women of the government in power. This isn't something to cast aspersions at

00:03:30.640 all RCMP officers. Very much, you know, the opposite. This is a small group of people who

00:03:36.480 climb their way to the top of the RCMP, not by being good cops, but just simply being very loyal

00:03:43.160 to the powers that be. But now I need to take you guys through some of this coverage, because it is

00:03:50.380 patently insane, the people who are trying to attack Polyev over this. Right here, this is kind of the red

00:03:57.560 Tories going after Polyev, those very liberal conservatives. And this headline from CP24 says,

00:04:04.900 top aide to former Prime Minister Harper rips Polyev's comments about RCMP and Trudeau. We're just

00:04:11.860 going to read through a little bit of this because I find it stupid. And it says, Ottawa, top aide to

00:04:18.180 former Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper has lashed out at Pierre Polyev over his leadership of

00:04:24.400 the Conservative Party and his recent comments attacking the RCMP's treatment of Justin Trudeau.

00:04:29.640 No, no. RCMP leadership. If you don't clarify leadership, you are being dishonest. You're just

00:04:35.980 acting like he just says, oh, I hate the cops, of course, because they let Trudeau off the hook.

00:04:40.140 No, he's talking about the commissioners. He's talking about those who are in charge of investigating

00:04:44.460 who really didn't investigate. But the article goes on to say, in a recent interview with a YouTube

00:04:50.860 channel called Northern Perspective, Polyev called the leadership of the RCMP despicable and said many

00:04:56.860 of former Prime Minister Trudeau's scandals, quote, should have involved jail time, unquote. Absolutely

00:05:02.720 agree. Writing an op-ed in the Toronto Star, Dmitry Sodas says Polyev's recent statements demonstrated,

00:05:09.200 quote, unquote, recklessness and, quote, a leadership approach that remains rooted in grievance

00:05:16.060 rather than governance, unquote. Quote, in a rule of law democracy, no opposition leader should ever

00:05:23.180 call for a prime minister or any political rival to be jailed, he wrote, unquote. Quote, it undermines

00:05:29.960 confidence in our justice system, our federal police, and ultimately the crown, unquote. And this

00:05:35.920 is absolute pablum. Now, we could keep reading through this, and he also posted a thread, like a long

00:05:43.980 post about it on X. He's wrong. Do you actually think there is no threshold at which point somebody

00:05:52.320 serving as prime minister shouldn't be arrested for things that they do in office? Or do they just get

00:05:57.520 a pure get-of-jail-free card? Doesn't matter how much money is siphoned off from taxpayers to friends

00:06:03.120 of the Liberal Party, how blatant it is, you just have to let it go. And I'm even saying, I'm even sitting

00:06:09.040 here saying, I don't think, necessarily, every time money goes missing or money is used wrong or a friend

00:06:15.400 gets a contract, that doesn't mean we need to charge someone. That's just sometimes called crappy

00:06:19.960 government. But when it comes to Trudeau, and again, was so egregious and consistent, eventually

00:06:26.620 somebody should be charged, because this is all just willful at this point. It's not just that we kind

00:06:32.180 of suck at our jobs and we're kind of self-serving. This is, you know you did something wrong because

00:06:36.580 you're covering it up. Mario Zollea, right here, posts a list of the actual times that the RCMP

00:06:44.400 has not charged the Liberals for a scandal. Mario says, things the RCMP has not charged the Liberals

00:06:49.720 for. Green Slush Fund, billions of dollars, refused to hand RCMP documents and froze government. Yeah,

00:06:57.240 so they were giving billions of dollars to friends and their companies, and there was no investigation,

00:07:03.380 or they refused to hand over documents to the RCMP who was investigating, and then they froze

00:07:08.060 government, and the whole thing went away. SNC-Lavalin, Trudeau interfered, fired Attorney General,

00:07:13.680 major corruption charges, WPG Labs, that's probably the Winnipeg Labs, We Charity, $912 million contract,

00:07:22.960 Trudeau family paid, Morneau broke ethics laws, lost infrastructure funds, billions unaccounted for in

00:07:29.020 quote-unquote green and transit projects, ArriveCAN, $60 million app, fake contracts, missing records,

00:07:35.120 RCMP investigating, foreign interference, China and others meddled in 2019-2021 elections,

00:07:40.920 Trudeau hid reports, Emergencies Act, court ruled illegal, rights violated, no accountability,

00:07:46.280 LeBlanc family deal, 28 million contracts to Cousins Company, ethics breach ignored,

00:07:51.800 Ajakon trip, and it keeps going on and on and on. There was a lot more than just some

00:07:58.740 oopsie moments inside the Trudeau government, but you guys don't need to be told that Justin Trudeau

00:08:05.120 was corrupt. Obviously he was. It's the pathetic way the media, again, is attempting to make this story

00:08:12.600 about Pollyup. I'm sorry, this is a common, this is an extremely common view that Trudeau got away

00:08:19.300 with effectively murder in government, and the police never actually got, like, never actually really

00:08:24.120 pressed him for details and to hand over documents or even have members of his PMO testify.

00:08:30.800 Anna Tomola here, who is a former chief of staff to the Prime Minister Stephen Harper,

00:08:38.520 and now works at Harper and Associates, says, and she's responding to that CP24 article we just read,

00:08:45.600 and she says,

00:08:46.180 And that is being said because, of course, that article dishonestly frames this like it's somehow

00:08:58.920 like the stance of former Harper aides, because it's just said a former Stephen Harper aide calls

00:09:05.140 out Pollyup for this and that. Just say it's the guy's, just say the guy's name, because nobody

00:09:11.540 actually cares. He's a red Tory hack who doesn't like that Pollyup's not playing by the rules the 0.66

00:09:18.320 liberals set. The liberals are allowed to be corrupt as heck, and you're not allowed to do anything

00:09:22.220 about it. It's, it's pathetic. Uh, here is the actual, yeah, and this guy, and Dimitri Soda's

00:09:30.560 basically posted the exact same thing in his own Twitter post, but I did like this response from

00:09:37.440 this Terry, uh, I, or L guy, and he says, Dimitris, you seem to be saying that no matter how corrupt a

00:09:44.180 Prime Minister was, and how negligent the RCMP was to not investigate or charge our past PM,

00:09:50.540 we should just accept the rule of law doesn't apply to federal liberal politicians.

00:09:54.540 Throw us at, Dimitris, and I agree. This is absolutely pathetic. Uh, and then that we have this

00:10:01.580 one person here, Lawrence Barton says, Soudis wouldn't have written this attack on Pollyup without

00:10:06.000 Stephen Harper's okay. It means the knives are out to get Pierre Pollyup, and they are big knives that

00:10:11.460 could kill his leadership. And this was the purpose of that stupid headline. So that, frankly, mouth

00:10:18.620 breathers like Lawrence Martin here can claim, well, this is probably coming from on high from,

00:10:23.740 uh, from, from, uh, Stephen Harper. And, uh, and it's not, it's just obviously not. Stephen Harper

00:10:30.960 endorsed him in the last campaign. And you could say, well, things change. He disrespected Trudeau,

00:10:37.020 and now Harper's coming in for the rescue. Do you think that he cares anything of what people say

00:10:42.880 about Justin Trudeau? I can tell you not. I don't know Stephen Harper on a personal level. I've never

00:10:47.880 even met him in person. But I can tell you that the man probably doesn't care about you thinking that

00:10:53.760 he should be arrested for gross levels of corruption. As Stephen Taylor person says,

00:10:58.480 ah, yes, Dimitri Sotas, famous for joining the Liberal Party at Stephen Harper's behest. Because,

00:11:04.220 in fact, Dimitri is a Liberal Party member. Of course, that's, yes, the headline, former Harper

00:11:13.840 staffer, or whatever, executive, uh, sounds off about Pollyup. Mention the fact that he's a Liberal

00:11:19.960 member up front, and maybe people won't care, because they shouldn't care. But again, this is all

00:11:25.020 being done in order to try and trip up Pollyup, because he, like Mark Carney, is doing a terrible

00:11:31.280 job, and Pollyup is on an upswing again. We even had this pathetic red Tory, uh, what, Fred Delori,

00:11:38.680 on power and politics, condemning or chastising Pollyup for his words here.

00:11:43.760 People that are looking at this. And by the way, this guy was the campaign, uh, manager for Aaron

00:11:49.620 O'Toole, which shouldn't shock you. Across the board, it's, he's the leader of the opposition

00:11:54.760 dominating media in the last few days, not in a good way. That's not a good thing. Yes, he has a

00:11:59.980 leadership review, and a lot of the people in the party who support him may look at this and be

00:12:03.840 nodding along, but there's going to be some people who are thinking, what in the heck are we doing here?

00:12:07.720 How are we preparing to defeat the Liberals in the next election if we're talking about this sort of

00:12:13.540 thing and running down the RCMP the way we are? That is not how you win elections in this country.

00:12:19.520 He didn't run down the RCMP. And, and can, could Fred Delori be projecting any harder that he has a

00:12:26.840 massive chip on his shoulder on some personal level of pure Pollyup? Because he, he acts like,

00:12:32.180 oh, well, pure Pollyup is all over the news in the last few days, and not in a good way.

00:12:36.460 As if Pollyup generated this. Pollyup made a comment on Northern Perspective's YouTube channel

00:12:43.680 and the media, who never talks about independent media, who never talks about Northern Perspective.

00:12:50.540 No, they wouldn't talk about my channel, Mr. Sunshine Baby, Clyde Do Something. They would never

00:12:56.000 talk about Jasmine Lane, all these other people, Josh at Elevate. But they suddenly, they're going to

00:13:01.460 cover Northern Perspective because Pollyup said some words they don't like,

00:13:05.240 which most people agree with. That massive amounts of corruption in government should result

00:13:11.260 in people being charged. And, and Fred Delori is presenting this as if Pollyup's, it's Pollyup's fault.

00:13:15.860 Not a pathetic media deflection to try and get off the topic of Mark Carney getting nothing done.

00:13:22.960 This is actually what it's about. And Fred Delori is aiding them because he just does not like

00:13:28.540 blue conservatives. And the thing is, I say this all as somebody who has in the past been willing to

00:13:35.560 criticize Pollyup over things. I thought the immigration platform in the last election was

00:13:39.880 extremely weak. I thought that only lowering income taxes by a little bit more than the liberals

00:13:45.040 was weak and only under $50,000. But the thing is, I can't stand these just dishonest backhanded

00:13:53.980 criticisms from people like Fred Delori. And then I want to get on to Pollyup on the ostriches later,

00:13:59.000 because this has been another area where even people I respect were going after Pollyup for not

00:14:03.580 sounding off enough. And I'm just sitting there thinking like, guys, an issue can be important

00:14:08.820 without the national leader of a party saying something about it. He only has so much bandwidth,

00:14:15.500 but we'll talk about that later on. I'll let Fred Delori keep flapping his gums here.

00:14:19.680 Mel, I just wonder your thoughts on this, sir. I mean, because, you know,

00:14:22.500 I was going to someone else, but I'll let it happen.

00:14:24.440 The administration of justice, faith in national policing, faith in criminal investigations.

00:14:29.780 When the RCMP says this is a crime we need to charge them, you should believe it.

00:14:33.140 And when they say there isn't, you should also believe that too, right? In an ideal world,

00:14:38.280 what do you think this does?

00:14:39.660 Obvious corruption. Obvious corruption that's obvious happens.

00:14:44.480 The PMO refuses to hand over documents. They refuse to let employees testify.

00:14:48.000 And the RCMP said there's nothing to see here, so we shouldn't think there's nothing to see here.

00:14:53.080 Like, David Cochran is putting basically out this opinion as the neutral show host,

00:14:57.920 just basically saying, well, you know, Pollyup really should lay off the liberals because the

00:15:01.700 RCMP said so, as if becoming the commissioner of the RCMP is not an extremely political thing.

00:15:09.200 That you have an incentive to be nice to the government and not do a great job when you're

00:15:14.460 investigating them. And that Pollyup's just supposed to take it. That you do, you just 0.94

00:15:18.960 absolutely, you know, dump all the spaghetti on the floor and Pollyup's going to be like, well, 1.00

00:15:24.000 it happens sometimes. No, they messed up. They basically covered up either through negligence

00:15:29.980 or deliberately. And I'm not sure if either one is better than the other.

00:15:33.540 To that whole dynamic.

00:15:34.540 I kind of have three thoughts when I hear him talk like that. The first one is

00:15:37.760 really dangerous and rhetoric, divisive, right? You're, you're...

00:15:41.260 Oh, dangerous and divisive. The two D words. Dangerous and divisive. Dangerous how?

00:15:48.120 Hopefully she defines it.

00:15:49.500 Point in doing this is to pit people against each other. And what's weird about it is...

00:15:53.420 Pit people against each other. It's pitting people who want justice enacted, who want real justice

00:16:01.080 against Justin Trudeau and a few of his, few of the members of his government, and also the

00:16:06.040 upper echelons of the RCMP who just do a terrible job. Well, he's pitting people against each

00:16:11.580 other as if like Pollyup said something racist or something like that, or he said something

00:16:14.940 bigoted and he's trying to pit people against each other. Or he's like standing out in a

00:16:18.600 parking lot and he's like, get him. What are we talking about? Pitting people against each

00:16:22.920 other. Calling for standards to be enforced is apparently pitting people against each other.

00:16:27.660 We saw police associations across the country line up with Piotr Piotr in the last election.

00:16:33.140 So to hear him... And by the way,

00:16:36.040 they still will. Do you know who hates the commissioners of the RCMP more than anyone?

00:16:41.940 The RCMP rank and file who influence who their police unions endorse. They will endorse Pollyup 1.00

00:16:49.160 again. Oh, Pollyup may be on the rocks now. He may be on the rocks with the police. An average

00:16:57.000 police officer is going to see him criticizing the commissioner and say, I can't believe him.

00:17:00.540 I loved my corrupt commissioner. Well, I can't vote for him anymore because he thinks that Trudeau

00:17:05.480 should be arrested for committing crimes. This is asinine. That's all I can describe it as. I keep

00:17:12.120 pausing. I'm sorry, guys.

00:17:13.280 Disparage RCMP officers is, I find strange. Disparaging officers. No, the leadership.

00:17:20.180 The institution that we should be very careful to not bias in any way, I find that strange. The second

00:17:26.900 is desperate. It feels desperate and desperate in you've got a leadership coming up and you are

00:17:32.060 literally trying everything that Canadians rejected in the last election to shore up your, I don't know,

00:17:38.740 your base going into that leadership. What did they reject that he's rehashing here? Like genuinely,

00:17:43.840 I don't know what she's talking about. He's in fact been moving away from things that Canadians 1.00

00:17:49.140 rejected. Like they didn't want a soft immigration stance. They didn't want a soft stance on taxes.

00:17:55.040 They wanted a harder stance on it. And he's hardened his stances, which is also why when I will sometimes

00:18:00.700 criticize things that the Conservative Party and Pierre Pollyup do, if they go the right direction,

00:18:05.440 I'll be here saying that's a great thing. But these people act like he got rejected for being

00:18:10.540 some far-right radical. And look, Pollyup is still being a far-right radical.

00:18:16.460 With this, with the Freedom Convoy stuff, with all sorts of stuff, with the DEI stuff over

00:18:21.000 Thanksgiving weekend, like this just seems like you're just throwing everything you can at the

00:18:25.500 wall to shore up folks. And the third thing that it makes me think of is you're kind of out to lunch.

00:18:30.980 Prime Minister's gone. This is something that happened in 2017. Why are we still talking about

00:18:35.700 it? There's been, how many elections since then? Three. Canadians decided in every single one of

00:18:40.340 those elections that they didn't care, that they were still going to vote for the Liberals.

00:18:43.480 So it just seems...

00:18:44.720 The Liberals won the election. Corruption over. Corruption investigation over. People voted for

00:18:49.300 the Liberal Party. People voted for the Liberal Party in elections where the RCMP hadn't even wrapped

00:18:53.880 up its investigation. They failed to do any investigating. And then in 2023, they're like,

00:18:58.240 nothing to see here. We decided to, you know, we really stared at a stack of papers that contained

00:19:05.460 no evidence in it because the Liberals didn't pass us any. And we were like, really rubbed our chin

00:19:10.140 for a while. And they're like, nothing here. And then we walked away. It's so infuriating. These

00:19:15.440 people act this way as if it's at all logical. This is, they act like these are points. Now I just need

00:19:24.020 to play a TikTok video from somebody or an Instagram video because we need some low-hanging fruit to eat

00:19:29.480 at the end of this, even though all of the fruit today has been low-hanging. This isn't low-hanging

00:19:34.460 fruit. This is fruit already in the bucket.

00:19:37.880 Air Polyev is back at it again today. He's undermining trust in national institutions,

00:19:43.100 which is dangerous. But that's...

00:19:45.520 My goodness, guys, it's really dangerous. Who wants to guess that this girl posted a Black Lives 1.00

00:19:51.760 Matter black square on her Instagram and called the police racist in support of defunding them?

00:19:57.680 But now Polyev is really undermining institutions. Maybe that's not what she's talking about,

00:20:03.260 but I remember the context of this was the police thing.

00:20:05.480 It's also what populist leaders do, which is why we stay away from populism. But today,

00:20:10.160 he decided to go after the RCMP. Now, don't get me wrong. I am sure there are valid criticisms that

00:20:16.620 people have about police, but this really isn't it. He's claiming that the RCMP...

00:20:21.900 Oh, it affects the liberals. It affects the liberals. So this isn't it, guys. Go cast to get your local

00:20:27.500 RCMP officer for being racist, for arresting a criminal. This isn't it. This affects the party

00:20:32.380 I vote for. This isn't it, guys. We can't do that. No. No, no, no, no, no, no. No. Nasty. Bad.

00:20:40.160 Stinky. I don't want to talk about things that hurt the party that I like.

00:20:43.100 Covered up Trudeau-era scandals. He's claiming that they covered up scandals involving Justin

00:20:48.120 Trudeau that otherwise would have led to criminal charges. Supposedly. He's claiming...

00:20:53.300 Democracy Watch! Basically, one of our institutional watchdogs is saying that he effectively covered

00:21:00.680 it up by not investigating very well. They just did not push to get any document disclosures.

00:21:05.800 They didn't push to get any interviews of PMO staff. And then it turns out that, you know,

00:21:11.040 it's like investigating a murderer, a murder, and you're trying to find evidence. And you're going

00:21:16.540 through the murderer's house. And they say, you can check every room, but not my study. And then

00:21:22.600 the police were like, don't worry, we won't touch the study. Obviously, there's no evidence in there.

00:21:26.580 And then they sweep the rest of the house. They're like, nothing here. And then they leave. And

00:21:30.100 they're like, see, and then they clear the guy. That's basically what we're talking about.

00:21:33.480 And again, this is Democracy Watch. This is APTN. This is left wing outlets who think that Trudeau

00:21:40.560 got away with corruption. That was charge worthy. They should have involved jail time. Now's the

00:21:47.240 time to ask, what scandals? So he's talking about the SNC-Lavalin affair. He's claiming that these

00:21:54.540 normally would have led to criminal charges, but he's claiming that the RCMP covered it all up.

00:21:58.880 Okay, here's the thing. Did the RCMP cover up SNC-Lavalin? No, we all know about it. And don't

00:22:07.220 get me wrong. Oh, oh my goodness. Okay, we're just gonna stop the video. Well, they didn't cover

00:22:12.080 up SNC-Lavalin because we knew the scandal existed. That's not how a cover-up works. A cover-up occurs

00:22:18.840 because people know you did something and you're gonna try and get rid of the evidence that would,

00:22:22.900 you know, make it criminal. You know, people know there's something up, but you're gonna burn all

00:22:27.200 the paperwork that could actually show that you had criminal intent. Or you're going to go and try

00:22:32.200 and throw someone else under the bus. Or you're going to try and recontextualize all the evidence

00:22:36.920 by only passing over what you actually want to pass over that makes you look like everything was just

00:22:42.600 a big oopsie. These are voters. These people are allowed to vote all the people we've talked about

00:22:50.520 today. And that's sad. But I'll get off of this one a little bit. It's already been a long enough

00:22:56.900 video. And by the way, guys, if you live in the city of Calgary, make sure to go check out my Calgary

00:23:01.140 election endorsements if you haven't made your mind up on mayor, counselor, and school board trustee.

00:23:06.720 Obviously, I always recommend voting for Miss Sonia Sharp for mayor. I think she's very good. And she is

00:23:13.780 like, literally, neck and neck right now with Jeremy Farkas and Jody Gondek. I heard an internal

00:23:20.280 poll puts them all at 25%. But I think that Sonia does have the best ground game. So hopefully she 0.98

00:23:25.620 pulls it out. Make sure you vote if you're in Calgary. And please vote for Sonia. No, like,

00:23:30.320 oh, well, Jeff Davison said something good. He had the most, he had one of the most liberal voting

00:23:34.200 records when he was a counselor. Now he's going to like rock onto stage with his really disorganized

00:23:38.460 campaign and demand conservatives get behind him. It's pathetic. Check out the link in the

00:23:43.240 description below and pop the comments if you want my endorsement list. But I want to talk a little

00:23:47.240 bit about the Polyev-Ostrich situation now. Because we've talked about the left-wing media and Red

00:23:54.700 Tories being extremely dishonest and attempting to attack Polyev over nothing. And now I want to talk

00:24:01.520 about people who I don't think they're being dishonest. I think people on the right who are

00:24:05.720 attacking Polyev over the Ostrich situation are just not being fair. Now, I was originally going

00:24:12.180 to make a video about this like last week. I think I was even going to make it before I went to

00:24:16.000 Victoria the first time. I'm going to Victoria again tomorrow to work again with the 1BC party.

00:24:21.520 I like doing that, but a lot of travel, obviously. I was going to make a video on this because it was

00:24:26.380 getting under my skin when I constantly see people attacking Polyev because he's not speaking out

00:24:31.020 strongly enough on the Ostriches. Even though Conservative MPs Scott Reid and Mel Arnold are

00:24:36.880 already quarterbacking that issue, we have people in British Columbia politics, including my party,

00:24:44.000 1BC, who are speaking out about it and questioning their local officials. We have Ezra Levant at Rebel

00:24:50.080 News going after the federal health minister on this. I think we actually have it pretty well covered.

00:24:55.660 And where I find all this kind of dishonest when people attack Polyev and look, he's not a real

00:25:01.380 conservative because he's not speaking out on the Ostriches, is that they frankly don't know how 1.00

00:25:06.460 politics works. The leader doesn't need to speak out on an issue for it to be important. And Polyev,

00:25:13.800 when he's already dealing with the liberals on about four to, I think actually it's more like seven

00:25:19.360 different issues, the really big issues around Bill C-2 that they basically finally shot down in

00:25:25.580 in Parliament and it's being returned as Bill C-12 in a completely defamed state. That's good.

00:25:32.000 They're dealing with Bill C-8, they're dealing with Bill C-9, they're dealing with the budget,

00:25:35.400 they're dealing with the party's conflicts of interest, they're dealing with bail reform.

00:25:38.960 If you throw ostriches on there, it's not, they're going to not be able to get all these other

00:25:43.860 important things done. Leave that to other local MPs or the Conservative Party to deal with.

00:25:50.520 Polyev dealing with it himself is not going to help. Plus, you know that the courts

00:25:54.780 are actually allowed to basically dismiss a case if they become political. If Polyev says

00:25:59.760 the Supreme Court, who's hearing about the case right now, should just let the ostriches go and 1.00

00:26:04.800 the CFIA should back off, they could rule that the case now cannot be ruled in the farmer's favor

00:26:09.980 because of political interference. And also, or they'd have to like restart the case and do a bunch of

00:26:16.540 other stuff. But also, Polyev, I support the ostrich farm. I think what the CFIA is doing is

00:26:22.920 draconian and over, like just absolutely high-handed. They are not being transparent,

00:26:28.100 they seem to be just wanting to flex bureaucratic power by doing whatever they want. But what I will

00:26:33.820 say is that in the midst of all this, there is still risk. And you could say that Polyev could and

00:26:39.940 should just take on the risk. Should he, when he's already dealing with so many big national issues,

00:26:46.280 could he stake his reputation defending the ostrich farm when he already has MPs doing that and local

00:26:52.260 MLAs doing that in British Columbia, when there is a chance? Now, I think it's very minimal and I

00:26:58.040 don't think they should be culling this herd of ostriches. There's a difference between having to

00:27:01.860 cull chickens and culling ostriches. And they seem to have recovered and all that stuff. But if avian flu,

00:27:07.680 bird flu, goes from that farm to another farm and wipes out a bunch of people's chickens and the

00:27:11.760 insurance companies have to pay out massive amounts of money and it becomes some big scandal,

00:27:16.640 that could destroy here Polyev as the federal conservative party leader for an issue that,

00:27:22.980 let's be clear, there is not 1% of people, not even 1% of people, who are going to change their vote

00:27:29.680 based on what Polyev does here. Now, I like principled politicians, but you should also want to be

00:27:37.080 principled for a reason, not simply just stating positions all day long because it's like the

00:27:41.980 principled thing to do. The leader at the end of the day has an agenda he needs to get across the

00:27:46.520 finish line. And if by speaking out on an issue that's already being spoken out on by other people

00:27:52.100 who are a little bit closer to the situation, what is the point of doing this that is going to risk the

00:27:57.920 rest of your agenda? And there is a sliver of a chance, even if it's tiny, there's a sliver of a

00:28:02.940 chance something goes wrong and then you're going to get blamed for something. I'm not saying that

00:28:07.160 politicians should run away from any issue with risk, but when there's literally nothing to gain,

00:28:12.700 I don't think we need to be putting all of our chips in on these issues, or at least in the

00:28:17.600 leader's case, where nothing will be gained if he's right. You'll lose everything if you're wrong,

00:28:23.840 but you will gain nothing if you're right. This happens a lot in politics. People just sit around

00:28:28.620 sounding off on things. They'll sound off on issues in American politics, something happening

00:28:33.560 in Europe, and you're running for office in Canada. And all you're doing is just creating

00:28:38.380 verbal clutter. You're creating just cluttered posts on social media that people aren't really

00:28:43.200 going to understand. The average person doesn't really even know what the ostrich situation is.

00:28:47.800 So for Polyev to talk about it, he would immediately be letting Carney and the liberals off the

00:28:53.120 hook. Even if he stood up in parliament and he said, why won't the minister make the CFIA be

00:28:58.360 more transparent? You know what the minister is going to do? They are going to stand up and say,

00:29:02.980 the CFIA is an independent regulatory body, and we do not interfere in their decisions.

00:29:08.520 And then that will be it. That is literally all that will go to. So let Mel Arnold, let Scott Reed,

00:29:14.560 let 1BC and our leader, Dallas Brody, and our other MLA, Tara Armstrong, deal with it. There's some BC

00:29:20.240 conservatives who also speak out on it. Let us handle it. This does not need to be at the level of the

00:29:26.620 leader of the Conservative Party of Canada. But anyways, so that should be it for me today,

00:29:32.560 guys. Hopefully this wasn't too much of a long ramble. I know some people like the videos in

00:29:36.820 these styles. I know others think my videos are too long. They are the way they are. But anyways,

00:29:43.520 well, thank you guys for still making it through all the way to here if you're still watching. And if

00:29:49.360 you are and you haven't done these things, make sure you do them. Like the video, subscribe to the

00:29:53.720 channel. You can also hit the notification bell to be notified whenever I put out a new video.

00:29:58.160 Leave a comment, and I will see you guys next time.
