Summary

In this episode, I talk about the Liberal Party leadership race, the Conservative Party of Canada's new leader, Pierre Polyvencic, and why he's the best thing going on in Canadian politics right now. I also talk about what the Liberals should be focusing on if they re-elect their next Prime Minister, John Turner.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. Without referencing polls, I just want to talk about the momentum
00:00:06.560 dynamic right now between the Conservatives and the Liberals. Because since the Conservatives
00:00:11.980 have been so far ahead for so long, it actually artificially makes the party seem like it's
00:00:17.880 stagnant. They're at 43% today, or 40%. They will be at 43-40% next week. And that actually
00:00:26.360 gives Canadians the perception that, look, the Liberals are growing a movement, because they
00:00:31.440 used to be at 20, and now they're at like 28 or something like that. They still can't win the
00:00:37.220 election, but potentially in like two or three months, that gives them the sense that they're
00:00:44.580 up and coming, and maybe they can get a bunch of people to bandwagon back onto them in Toronto and
00:00:51.020 other parts of the country that they need to be able to sweep to actually even be in the conversation
00:00:55.500 of winning the election. Now, I find this next thing that Pierre Polyev is doing to be very
00:01:01.420 interesting, because they actually seem to have a good plan within the Conservative Party to recapture
00:01:06.760 the sense of momentum. You have to, at some point, one-up yourself in order to actually seem like you
00:01:13.140 have forward momentum, and you're not just now defending what you have in the lower 40s. And so
00:01:19.500 what the Conservatives are doing has been pivoting their messaging, not talking about the carbon tax as
00:01:25.120 much, and now going to this Canada first, Canada last, Canada always type slogan, which I think is
00:01:32.280 perfectly fine. The good thing is that I don't think another party would ever steal that slogan,
00:01:38.160 and a former MP pointed out to me the other day, quite smartly, that you always pick a slogan that
00:01:44.240 your opponent would never use, because if you take something that your opponent could use, they might
00:01:49.360 just do that, flip it on its head, and then basically steal all the value from it. And so what Polyev is
00:01:55.360 doing is not just swinging his messaging to be less specific about the carbon tax and more broad
00:02:01.760 about, like, Canada first policy, which he will be defining, but he's going to be pairing this up with
00:02:07.700 trying to basically have the biggest political rally in his career. You can see right here, he says,
00:02:14.460 join us for a Canada first rally in Ottawa, one week from today at 1pm on Saturday, February 15th,
00:02:20.960 don't miss out, show your Canadian pride in red and white. So no doubt, because this is obviously a
00:02:26.360 call out that they want people to show up, even if they don't live in Ottawa, they want like everyone
00:02:31.900 there. They don't probably need 10s of 1000s. Exactly. The standard for what a massive Canadian rally is,
00:02:38.820 is not like what a Trump rally is in the United States, where you have, like, literally almost 100,000
00:02:45.640 people in New Jersey, a Canada rally, if you could do 5000 people, that's crazy. That's like a blockbuster
00:02:53.460 moment. And it's smart, because you're now stealing all of the momentum, the frankly, fake momentum, the
00:03:01.120 liberals are gaining from having this leadership race. And you reassert that you're still the biggest thing going on
00:03:06.640 in politics right now, which is true. Polyev is probably the biggest phenomenon in Canadian politics
00:03:12.660 in the last couple of decades. Trudeau was pretty big in 2015. But he was fighting back against a fairly
00:03:18.860 tired Harper campaign by that point. He was not nearly as big and much of a cultural force as Polyev is.
00:03:26.080 Because if you ask people, what do they actually think about Trudeau's character in 2015? It would have
00:03:32.060 been pretty shallow, because people didn't really know much. They just knew that, hey, he's a hip,
00:03:36.900 young guy, and he's having to bring the Trudeau brand back or whatever. It was very silly.
00:03:43.700 Anyways, I want to move on to some other topics here. But first, guys, just a reminder, make sure
00:03:47.800 you like this video, subscribe to the channel. If you're not yet subscribed, I have a goal of getting
00:03:52.940 to 100,000 by mid-December of this year. And then also leave a comment on, I guess, what you think
00:03:58.600 about the conservative rebrand, what they need to be doing. Personally, I think one big issue they
00:04:04.160 really should be focusing on, assuming that Mark Carney is going to be the next Liberal Party leader
00:04:09.540 and our second ever unelected prime minister after John Turner, is they need to focus on his insane
00:04:16.780 views on central bank digital currency. It seems like a more fringe issue. In fact, I and the National
00:04:23.880 Telegraph were the ones who got Pierre Polyev to embrace his policy on banning CBDCs. In the leadership
00:04:30.200 race, we basically did a mini interview with him, released it, where he told us, yeah, I'd look into
00:04:35.100 maybe seeing if we could ban CBDCs. It wasn't really a big thing in his mind. It's not that he didn't know
00:04:40.300 what to say on it. He's against them. He just didn't think it was a big issue. We released our article,
00:04:44.820 got 12,000 views or 12,000 likes on Facebook in a single day. And so it kind of proved that there's a
00:04:51.500 certain person out there, rightfully so, who thinks CBDCs are insane and they want the Bank of Canada
00:04:56.820 pursuing it. And so then 12 days after that article got massive numbers, the Polyev leadership campaign
00:05:03.360 releases all their stuff about how against CBDCs they are, and they start working out their stump
00:05:07.560 speech. And I give Polyev a lot of credit. He has kept that up since the leadership. He will keep
00:05:12.560 reasserting how insane CBDCs are and our need to ban them. And Mark Carney is Mr. Central Bank Digital
00:05:20.400 Currency. And this is a great way of connecting him back to China. Not only is the CCP using WeChat
00:05:26.860 in order to mess with Chrystia Freeland's campaign because they want their boy Carney to win,
00:05:32.220 but Carney shares their love for CBDCs. Because if you're a totalitarian government, obviously you
00:05:39.140 can't have cash everywhere. You need a way of literally tracking every single dollar people have
00:05:45.080 in a way to basically freeze them out in a second. Did the government without a CBDC in Canada still
00:05:51.140 freeze truck or bank accounts and anyone else who donated to the Freedom Convoy? Yes. But you know
00:05:56.460 what actually ended up happening is like close to like a trillion dollars of money in Canada relocated
00:06:03.560 to other places after that banking out freeze happened. A lot of it came back after, but that's
00:06:09.140 really what actually ended up hurting the government. The ability for people to say I don't
00:06:14.600 like that and then leave and the banks were ticked at them. There was a lot of friction required in
00:06:20.420 order to get to what the Liberals wanted. And by the time the Liberals got it, they didn't even really
00:06:25.080 want it because they realized how much they had undermined themselves with institutional banking.
00:06:30.880 A CBDC would make it seamless. Nobody can get mad at you other than the person that you're
00:06:35.200 shutting down the bank account of because you can just basically turn it off,
00:06:39.140 and that's it. There's no bank manager saying, what are you making us do? This is insane. I don't
00:06:44.800 want to do this. I'm protesting. We might sue you. You can just do it because it's the central bank's
00:06:49.840 account. Anyways, so I want to move on to something else here. But again, the messaging of Polyev and
00:06:57.120 the Conservatives really need to point out how much the Liberals are just an anti-Canadian party. If
00:07:03.060 you're going to, you can first you then point out how mass immigration is anti-Canadian. High tax are
00:07:08.760 anti-Canadian. What they've done to the military is anti-Canadian. Our military, which I keep having
00:07:14.120 very smug leftists on social media point out, you know, we technically spend more on the military
00:07:20.200 per capita than we did under Harper. Okay, well, we just agreed to put 10,000 troops along the border
00:07:27.360 to basically secure the border, make Trump happy, avoid tariffs in 30 days. And Bill Blair,
00:07:33.740 the public safety minister came out and basically said, yeah, the military can't really handle that.
00:07:41.020 We can't handle putting 10,000 people on the border. What else is the military doing?
00:07:45.340 They're doing nothing. Great people are in the military, but they're being held down
00:07:50.220 by a system of DEI, HR, and make work programs. The military at this point is a DEI program with
00:07:58.940 pencils instead of rifles. And that's the problem. And people always seem like that's so gauche.
00:08:04.860 We're going to have soldiers marching down the street like this is the 1870s. Yes. Yes,
00:08:09.980 we should do that. We should have a military that can put on a proper parade that can actually like
00:08:15.100 show all the artillery it has in tanks. And we don't have that. We don't have many icebreakers.
00:08:20.540 The US has had this because we cannot secure our own Northern passage,
00:08:24.700 which allows the Chinese and the Russians to use as a free shipping lane that we can't have like
00:08:29.500 actually cut off in case of some massive conflict. But whatever, I'm going down a rabbit hole now.
00:08:35.500 But this, I feel like I want to move on to this. This is why this is what also needs to be worked in
00:08:41.660 to this Canada first rally. The absolute cultural degradation that the left has basically wrought
00:08:49.580 on younger people in this country. This was a Marxist training class for high school and university
00:08:56.380 students, I believe in Montreal, where they're all singing the communist international song.
00:09:10.380 I think you guys get that. I can mute that. But yeah, this ended up happening. The people were
00:09:22.380 holding up like pictures of Lenin there. They had pictures of Mao. There is no idea that these same
00:09:29.340 people, if you confronted them on them being insane, would say, I just want what Scandinavia has. No,
00:09:35.340 they don't. They want like the killing fields. They want like the great leap forward where
00:09:41.100 20 million people die. And do they want it because they're like sadistic? Maybe some of them. I find
00:09:46.780 communists can be very nasty, just petty people who simply want because they want you to not have
00:09:52.700 something. They are basically the caricature that they make out of capitalists, that they are in fact
00:09:57.660 jealous people who are scroungers wanting to steal things from you, where actual capitalists actually
00:10:02.700 generate productive force and they pay people for their labor and all that. But I think a lot of
00:10:08.860 this is just because our education system sucks. The conservatives, from a federal perspective,
00:10:14.940 need to start clamping down on poor post-secondary institutions and primary school institutions.
00:10:22.060 Secondary school, high school, elementary, middle school, everything needs to have a curriculum
00:10:27.980 upgrade. Do you remember back in the early 2000s? I was in school in the early 2000s,
00:10:33.660 in like elementary, middle school, and high school. Remember when Alberta and like
00:10:38.460 provinces like BC, and I believe Ontario was up there too and other ones,
00:10:42.220 they used to compete to have the best school system on the planet. They had the most well-balanced
00:10:48.620 school system that had a good focus on math and sciences, but you also came up with really good
00:10:53.740 language art skills. You had a good amount of civic knowledge. And now what do we have? We have like
00:11:00.060 students leaving high school who can't balance a checkbook. No economic knowledge at all.
00:11:05.420 Everyone, I remember when they actually started changing math in Alberta and they made it like
00:11:09.820 extremely hard to understand because they were like, well, some kids with ADHD are falling behind.
00:11:16.060 And rather than then for like providing some unique resources for those specific students,
00:11:20.860 they changed the entire math system to something called discovery math. And then they got teachers
00:11:26.540 to teach math this way. And it's not like different math, obviously. Math is math. Although, you know,
00:11:32.060 if you talk to certain communists, they will say that, you know, math is whatever you want it to be.
00:11:38.220 But anyways, that they started changing it so that you're teaching math for like a kid who has ADHD. And
00:11:44.380 they're teaching every kid like this, where every math question starts being 50 steps for no reason,
00:11:49.340 to keep the person focused and they know what they're doing. They don't get distracted. Okay.
00:11:53.260 But if you're normal, like if you can stay focused, it's mind-bogglingly long and you forget what's even
00:12:00.220 going on. I remember I started having problems with math when it was taught to me that way. And when someone
00:12:04.700 taught it to me in a simpler way, even if it was harder type questions, I'm like, fair enough. That makes way
00:12:10.060 more sense. My goodness. Anyways, but that's an aside. So we need like, so focus on education,
00:12:16.300 highlight crap like this, highlight all of the Marxist front groups that are probably getting
00:12:21.740 USAID type funding in Canada. I have no doubt those people got heritage money, heritage ministry money.
00:12:30.300 No doubt. I have no doubt every insane DEI, you know, like alphabet people type classes and programs in
00:12:38.700 schools are having money shoveled into them at the same time these schools aren't performing. So I think
00:12:44.140 that a lot of federal money should be contingent on schools improving over time, having benchmarks that
00:12:50.060 they actually meet, standardized testing benchmarks, actually getting people to be able to function as
00:12:56.380 adults when they leave high school. But anyways, that's what I have there. So Paulie is having
00:13:02.460 that bit of growly. I hope it goes well. Right now in the liberal leadership race, it looks like Carney
00:13:08.300 is moving forward. Although I've actually seen polling where he looks weak compared to Freeland. Freeland's
00:13:13.980 still definitely behind. But if she starts cobbling support together on second ballot from other people,
00:13:19.100 this thing could tighten up. I keep hearing there's going to be a debate. It doesn't look like Carney is
00:13:24.060 going to commit to a debate. In a certain sense, it's his best interest not to debate because he is
00:13:28.940 a boring human being who is very susceptible to attacks as an insider and having a liberal attack
00:13:34.700 him. Another liberal candidate is going to destroy him if he wins because the conservatives can just
00:13:39.420 keep playing that as an ad on repeat. All of the liberal leadership candidate campaign candidates who
00:13:46.140 don't like him being like, you're an insider. You're literally Trudeau's economic advisor. You have
00:13:50.780 his entire team on your campaign, which again, it's going to be fodder for the conservatives to
00:13:56.220 like go after him. But yeah, so big rally happening. Paulie, I'm trying to recapture the narrative.
00:14:03.100 Carney probably moving on to win. He is Mr. CBDC. Watch out. And then we have these Marxist schools
00:14:09.260 going on in Quebec. And I do hope that the conservatives in their pivot to the Canada first stuff
00:14:15.180 end up putting a strong focus on Canada first education, which means academics first, not social
00:14:22.220 nonsense, teaching academics properly. Anyways, so also in Ontario, by the way, guys, if you live in
00:14:29.340 Ontario, check out the new Blue Party website. They have candidates for about like 100, 102 ridings.
00:14:35.820 They're trying to in the last four days, fill in the last 18 or so. So if you want to run for the new
00:14:41.020 blue party, check out their website. They have a list of ridings that they still need candidates
00:14:46.060 for, like the provincial version of the Toronto St. Paul riding they need a candidate for. I believe
00:14:50.700 they need one in like Thunder Bay. Check it out if you want to run for them. If you're in Ontario,
00:14:55.980 provincially, please vote new blue. The Ford PCs, the Liberals, the NDP are basically the same.
00:15:03.100 David Menzies at Rebel News has a great top 10 list of reasons not to vote Doug Ford. He even
00:15:08.460 pointed out, Bonnie Crombie is the one having to shame Ford for putting a box over John A.
00:15:13.740 Macdonald's statue on Queen's Park. Ford's the one covering up John A. Macdonald's statue because
00:15:18.780 I guess it's shameful to have it there. And Bonnie Crombie, the Liberal, is having to be like,
00:15:24.140 maybe we should have a little bit more national pride in this province. But anyways, that's truly
00:15:30.220 it for me, guys. Like the video, subscribe to the channel, leave a comment. I'll see you guys later.
