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
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
00:01:06.420
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
00:01:37.740
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
