The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Pierre Poilievre is right, many Canadian mayors Suck!

00:00:00.000 I'm not sure if this has been intentional all along, but Conservative Party leader Pierre Polyev

00:00:04.500 seems to be able to just keep baiting Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party's communications

00:00:08.960 team into tying themselves to burning logs in order to attack him for the dumbest stuff possible.

00:00:15.480 Pierre Polyev rightfully and recently called out the mayors of Montreal and Quebec City for their

00:00:20.300 restrictive housing policy that has been helping to drive housing prices sky high in their cities,

00:00:25.420 and Justin Trudeau and the Liberals think it's a good idea to try and attack Polyev over this,

00:00:30.680 I guess maybe to appeal to Quebec voters, like acting like, hey, look at this English-Canadian 1.00

00:00:35.220 attacking your Quebec mayors, but it's not going to work. Affordability is the top issue in every

00:00:41.460 single province, and nobody is going to come to the aid of their mayors when they've been incompetent

00:00:46.200 and actually being able to make sure that there is shelter for people in their cities. There's so

00:00:51.180 many mayors across this country who seem to think that the way you get more things built is by

00:00:55.600 putting more bureaucracy in front of the process to actually starting to build something. It's

00:01:00.580 completely ridiculous, but this is the statement that Justin Trudeau made posted to the official

00:01:05.240 Liberal Twitter account.

00:01:06.420 Guys, guys, Justin Trudeau is not condescending. That is so weird whenever I see Justin Trudeau condemning

00:01:29.960 Polyev for things that he is easily more guilty of, like condescension or bullying or being an enemy of the

00:01:35.780 free press. Insane.

00:01:37.740 Il y a une ignorance par rapport à comment les choses fonctionnent entre le gouvernement fédéral

00:01:43.580 et les provinces. Je pense qu'il est grand temps qu'il s'excuse pour son comportement et pour ce qu'il est

00:01:50.700 en train de dire en s'attaquant contre des élus au Québec.

00:01:54.340 It's high time for him to apologize for the bullying of these Quebec mayors. These incompetent mayors

00:02:00.100 deserve respect. I don't know why he thinks this line is going to play well. Just because they're

00:02:05.660 mayors in Quebec doesn't mean anything at all. There's nothing special about a Quebec mayor that's

00:02:12.400 going to make voters come out and vote liberal in order to defend them. Especially that's a really

00:02:17.200 weird bank shot of a communication strategy that there's going to be a bunch of people who love

00:02:21.680 their mayors in Montreal and Quebec and they're going to rush out and vote liberal even harder to try and

00:02:26.860 like you know stave off the conservatives. The conservatives do not have any Montreal or Quebec

00:02:30.640 seats. So I don't know how this is winning Trudeau any support in Quebec because anyone outside of

00:02:36.280 those cities probably doesn't give a crap about those mayors if not thinks they're a complete 0.99

00:02:39.980 incompetent like incompetent morons just as many of us across the country think our mayors are

00:02:45.900 incompetent morons. In the city of Calgary Mayor Jody Gondek is raising property taxes by 7.8%

00:02:52.520 saying it's just a one-time thing we just need to raise a little bit more revenue blah blah we need

00:02:57.640 to pay for a bunch of useless garbage frankly but it's not a one-time thing because she's going to 0.77

00:03:02.920 raise property taxes next year even if it's not 7.8% the next increase is going to be on top of that

00:03:08.340 7.8% increase which is going to be on top of all the previous increases. It's insane these people

00:03:14.680 think that you can just keep adding 2, 3, 4% to the tax every single year. You can't get past 100%

00:03:21.640 taxation. I know we're not close to that in terms of property taxes but obviously every single

00:03:28.100 decimal point increase on your property taxes is pretty massive based on the price of housing these

00:03:33.020 days. Anyways like it's even in Toronto if Paul had a tax like Olivia Chow you think he's losing any

00:03:39.720 voters? If anything he'd gain voters because there's a lot of people in Toronto who do not like Olivia Chow. 0.95

00:03:45.240 Her polling is up right now because she's in her honeymoon period. In a year's time she's not going to be 0.97

00:03:50.080 everyone's favorite mayor anymore. It's actually good for pure poly to actually point out those

00:03:55.540 who are responsible for the increased cost of housing. It's people's restrictive zoning laws on 1.00

00:04:00.700 the municipal level, the higher property tax on the municipal level, it's some provincial zoning

00:04:05.440 restrictions like that happens in BC to protect different forests and whatnot and then it's stuff

00:04:10.560 like the crazy high immigration rate we have this country from the federal level and the crazy high 0.80

00:04:15.900 federal taxation rate on both personal income and corporate income. If we actually took care of that

00:04:22.660 stuff and made everything a little bit more sensible and reasonable housing would be going up faster and

00:04:27.760 it would be all way more affordable but Polyev's bad because he called out the problem. I hate that

00:04:33.340 crap in politics where if you call out the problem if you do it in a nice way obviously you do it in a

00:04:38.540 nice way and Polyev has not done it in a rude way. He's not been condescending. He told people how to do

00:04:42.960 their jobs who have demonstrated that they do not know how to do their jobs but I hate the idea that

00:04:47.740 if you call out a problem that you're the bad guy for doing it. It's the pure shooting the messenger

00:04:53.120 type mentality. Anyways, as a quick aside, I'm running for the Calgary Signal Hill Conservative Party

00:05:00.500 nomination so on the federal level if you live in Calgary Signal Hill, buy a Conservative Party

00:05:05.580 membership and vote for me if you want a real conservative who calls out serious problems

00:05:09.520 and take serious issues seriously, buy a membership for me. If you don't live in the riding, if you know

00:05:14.400 anyone who does, encourage them to buy a membership and if really if you live in any riding, buy a

00:05:19.320 membership, engage in local politics whether it's municipal, provincial or federal. We need more

00:05:23.800 people. You know, it's not just the idea that I find PPC people push that everyone just needs to

00:05:28.800 abstractly wake up to the problems of the country. No, you actually have to do stuff. Just waking up and

00:05:34.620 being awake doesn't actually make you more effective. What makes you more effective is

00:05:39.560 door knocking, attending meetings, pushing for policy at policy conventions, founding parties if

00:05:45.100 there's no good party in your province like in Ontario where Doug Ford's PC party is a dubiously

00:05:49.540 conservative party. Get involved and do stuff. I'm getting involved. I'm doing stuff. I'm advocating but

00:05:55.680 I'm also doing stuff on the ground. Anyway, sorry Doug for that mini rant on engagement but engage.

00:06:00.560 Basically, engage, wake up every morning, pound the ball downfield a little bit more because I

00:06:05.520 guarantee you the leftist activists do that every day. If you wonder how they beat you in municipal

00:06:10.480 races, it's because they are always grinding it out and they don't take for granted the idea that

00:06:16.000 the city that they live in is already predetermined to be an NDP city the way that conservatives,

00:06:21.840 you know, in Calgary I find over time say it's conservative city, we'll just vote for the

00:06:25.920 conservative guy. You got to work to get that conservative guy election. He's just not going to

00:06:29.760 walk into the mayor's office and take over. You actually need a real conservative running and

00:06:34.640 people behind him. You can't just wait by in the in like the cheap seats and say, I wonder

00:06:39.760 people should stop splitting the vote. Well back one of them. Oh, anyway, noise me on whenever I see

00:06:45.840 people who get really whiny about political outcomes but also never help out. So my campaign

00:06:54.480 website, if you live in Calgary Signal Hills, whycloedpool.com, it's in the description below. I

00:06:58.240 also have my legal fundraiser in the description below. Myself and the National Telegraph being

00:07:02.320 sued by a billionaire. The case makes no sense. If you click on the give send go link, there is

00:07:07.120 a link to the Globe and Mail article of the guy suing us. Our entire article that we had mentioned

00:07:12.080 him in referenced only the Globe and Mail's information about him, yet he's suing us because

00:07:16.640 he doesn't want that information ever being repeated, even though he never sued the Globe and Mail or

00:07:21.440 legally challenged them. So his entire case is meaningless since you can't sue someone for

00:07:26.800 saying something that everyone else has already said, especially if that thing is true. Anyways,

00:07:31.920 sorry for this becoming a bit of an infomercial at the end. I hope my rambling is at least somewhat

00:07:36.400 enjoyable. But other than that, I will leave you guys here today and I will be back tomorrow with

00:07:41.520 more videos and in the future with more live streams. Have a great one.
