Summary

Jagmeet Singh's hypocrisy on Justin Trudeau's government is truly astounding, and I think we'll all agree that he's a complete hypocrite. He's the perfect example of what I call a strike-a-populist, and it's time to call him out for it.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 It is safe to say that NDP leader Jagmeet Singh is one of the most annoying people in
00:00:07.000 Canadian politics, and today I am happy to see Pierre Paglia blasting him for his massive
00:00:13.780 hypocrisy on the issue of Justin Trudeau's government.
00:00:17.860 Jagmeet Singh loves to play this stupid inside-outside game pretending he's not actually doing it.
00:00:24.640 Every day, he goes and rattles Justin Trudeau's cage saying,
00:00:28.420 I'm coming for you. I'm going to collapse your government and fight back against corporate greed
00:00:34.240 and CEOs, and then he doesn't do anything. Jagmeet Singh just sits at the side of the road and yells,
00:00:40.880 why won't someone do something about Justin Trudeau? At the same time, he's not doing anything
00:00:46.340 himself. He'll attend a protest, he'll do something to show Justin Trudeau how serious it is,
00:00:52.800 and then not actually do anything. It's what I call a strike-a-pose populist. Jagmeet Singh
00:00:58.400 wants to show up, put his fist in the air and act tough, but not actually do anything. Obviously,
00:01:05.080 I also don't like him because I'm a conservative, but you know, I at least can admire effective
00:01:10.620 politicking by different parties and different leaders, even if they are not somebody I would
00:01:15.680 ever think of voting for. Jack Layton wasn't this pathetic. Frankly, even David Eby in British
00:01:21.820 Colombia isn't this pathetic. Jagmeet Singh just has absolutely nothing past being basically a male
00:01:28.840 version of AOC in Canada. Here he says, no matter how hard Canadians work, it's almost impossible to
00:01:35.780 get a break right now at the exact same time wealthy CEOs get richer every day and conservatives would
00:01:41.420 give them even more. Give them even more? What are you talking about? That's their money that the
00:01:47.420 government potentially might tax less. That's not giving them any more of anything. That's simply
00:01:53.340 them keeping more of what they earned. And he says, I'm fighting to change that. This is why I'm
00:01:59.680 going to have to play right now the Margaret Thatcher clip of her calling out labor towards the end of her
00:02:05.940 tenure of not actually caring about poor people, just hating rich people.
00:02:10.400 What the honorable member is saying is that he would rather the poor were poorer, provided the rich were less rich. That
00:02:20.460 way you will never create the wealth for better social services as we have. And what a policy. Yes, he would
00:02:28.260 rather have the poor poorer, provided the rich were less rich. That is a liberal policy. Yes, it came out, he didn't intend it to.
00:02:36.980 You know, couldn't say it any better myself. And that's, and like, the thing is, like, what, what is
00:02:45.400 Jagme Singh actually offering here? He says, no matter how hard Canadians work, it's also impossible to
00:02:49.120 get a break right now. Well, why is it because the liberals and the greedy, greedy CEOs and conservatives
00:02:56.000 are colluding? Or is it because taxes are too high, in part because you and Justin kept them so high? And
00:03:02.400 again, remember, he's been involved in all of this. Here's something he posted today that really set it
00:03:07.380 all off and what, and what Pure Polly eventually responded to. He let you down. Justin Trudeau said
00:03:14.640 he'd do, he'd do one thing. He did the exact opposite. Workers are the backbone of our country.
00:03:20.940 You deserve a government that respects you for real. And it's a post that he has links saying,
00:03:26.340 Justin Trudeau says, the fact is unions are vital to promoting, protecting our middle class.
00:03:31.140 Canadians deserve a government that works with unions instead of attacking them.
00:03:35.420 Sorry, is Jagme Singh's actual contention? And I'm not here to defend Justin Trudeau.
00:03:40.280 If anything, Justin Trudeau is a complete pushover. And in the case like the Canadian
00:03:44.520 Postal Workers Union going on strike, Justin Trudeau is probably going to give them most of
00:03:49.240 what they want. But is the idea from Jagme Singh that we are all supposed to become trade unionists
00:03:55.020 and just give the economy over to unions? That's actually what trade unionism means,
00:03:59.440 not just being in favor of unions. That's what Jagme Singh seems to mean. And if that's what he
00:04:04.880 means, why doesn't he just say it? Well, if he says it, then everyone's going to rightfully conclude
00:04:09.440 he's absolutely insane and not vote for the guy. That's the problem is that Jagme Singh won't even
00:04:15.160 live up to his own radical rhetoric on these specific issues. He kind of just, again, strikes a vague
00:04:21.480 pose and then moves on. Here's a great video just from his own campaign that I find just demonstrates
00:04:29.300 the general aesthetic emptiness of Jagme Singh. He says, day and night Canadians work hard to
00:04:34.800 provide for their families and build a good life. But the CEO class is raking in record profits while
00:04:40.580 everyone else is paying more and more. They are not taking record profits. Their revenues are record
00:04:47.260 revenues because obviously, generally, companies grow over time. And inflation has also heavily inflated
00:04:55.400 their revenues because now things cost more because also each dollar is not worth as much.
00:05:02.360 But here's Jagme Singh.
00:05:05.800 You work hard to build a good life for yourself and your family. I believe it's our responsibility
00:05:10.520 to make that a little easier. Like taking the tax off of everyday essentials and monthly bills. That
00:05:16.720 means lower cell phone, internet, and home heating bills. That means you pay less for diapers,
00:05:22.500 children's clothing, and grab and go food at the grocery store. No government should nickel and
00:05:28.260 dime you on the basics. You can count on me and the NDP to always put people first.
00:05:33.460 So where's the income tax cut? Where's you forcing Trudeau's hand on any of this stuff? Think about it.
00:05:40.420 Why doesn't Jagme Singh, if he had a political instinct in his entire body, say, I will collapse
00:05:47.760 the government unless you remove tax on these specific items? Well, he doesn't really care to
00:05:52.460 reduce taxes. I like that in that montage, one of the places he's at is like a organic grocery store.
00:05:57.720 Is he mad that they probably have way higher profit margins than, you know, Metro or Loblaws or
00:06:04.140 wherever else? Nah, not really. Because that's not really Jagme Singh's concern. But here's
00:06:10.280 Pierre Polyev absolutely blasting Jagme Singh today for just the brutal hypocrisy. And he says,
00:06:19.840 Pierre Polyev says,
00:06:20.600 How to understand the repetitive cycle of Jagme Singh selling out to support Trudeau so he can
00:06:25.760 secure his pension. The NDP liberals need to go. And there's just a petition, but it's mostly about
00:06:31.940 the graphic. Obviously, people are always datamining all the time. How the NDP works. Vote to keep
00:06:37.080 Trudeau in power. Threaten to vote Trudeau out. Back down to Trudeau. I would actually disagree with
00:06:42.580 Polyev here. He doesn't even really threaten to vote Trudeau out. He doesn't. Every time somebody asks,
00:06:48.080 are you actually going to vote against him? He's like, well, no, because conservatives would be
00:06:51.220 worse. He can't define worse because he can't define exactly what the liberals are really doing
00:06:56.580 wrong right now. Since he was involved with them the entire time, he was the one who was propping
00:07:02.140 them up. And he was the one helping pass legislation. But this is Pierre Polyev responding
00:07:07.360 to the exact post that Jagme Singh put out the other day. The one where he says, he let you down.
00:07:12.840 And Pierre Polyev said, you let him do it. Stop propping up the liberals. Put the people before
00:07:18.400 your pension. And that's something that actually happened recently. Jagmeet Singh is already going
00:07:23.320 to get his pension before the next election. But the election date was going to prevent a bunch of
00:07:28.780 NDP MPs from getting their pensions. Jagmeet got elected in the middle of the year 2019. So he'll get
00:07:34.840 his pension sometime around like May or June of 2025. But if Jagmeet Singh, his main concern is helping
00:07:42.920 Canadians. His main concern is the poor. And he wants to go after rich CEOs and reduce taxes on
00:07:49.360 specific basic necessities. Where is Jagmeet Singh fighting for that with the liberals? He's taking
00:07:59.180 backroom meetings to fight to move the date of the election so that people can get their pensions.
00:08:05.300 But you know, where is the quality of life for anyone else? And that's really where the NDP has
00:08:11.060 always been a fake party from the perspective of they like populist rhetoric around attacking the rich
00:08:17.000 because apparently you're bad if you've made any money. But they never actually follow through
00:08:23.480 because it's just a big government party. It's just a party around maximizing like government
00:08:28.920 power, including the personal power politicians and their personal wealth. Jagmeet Singh and the NDP
00:08:36.240 are government lifers for the most part in terms of their like careers, in terms of just their
00:08:44.460 attitudes towards government. It is that people should get in government, have a job for life and
00:08:48.760 then get a massive pension. They don't care that CEOs have money. They just don't they just don't
00:08:53.380 like that CEOs have that money and they don't have that money. They don't care poor people get the
00:08:57.140 money or not. And you can see it through Jagmeet Singh's actions. He does not actually fight to lower
00:09:02.120 taxes for basic for basic necessities. He sometimes says something about the consumer carbon tax being
00:09:07.960 bad, but then wants to bring in industrial carbon tax anyways, that would auto automatically replace
00:09:13.000 it and still cost everyone about the exact same amount of money. Anyways, that should be it for me
00:09:18.660 today, guys. If you want to support the show, you can donate to the Give, Send, Go legal fund in the
00:09:23.040 description and into the top of the comments. And also, yeah, I'm going to encourage you guys
00:09:28.240 subscribe to the channel if you haven't yet like this video, do all that great stuff. I will be back
00:09:33.700 later with another video either today or I will be putting out my long form interview with Belinda
00:09:39.900 Karajalios from the New Blue Party of Ontario, either sometimes later today on Saturday or tomorrow
00:09:46.040 on Sunday. It's a good conversation. If you guys are in Ontario, I do encourage you check out the New
00:09:51.360 Blue Party, maybe join it. The Doug Ford PCs are utterly abysmal. Anyways, see you guys later.
