00:00:00.160 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here. You may have missed it, but late last night in the House of Commons,
00:00:06.720 there was a vote of no confidence in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's liberal government.
00:00:11.920 Did it pass? Obviously it didn't pass. Justin Trudeau's personal assistant Jagmeet Singh and
00:00:18.120 his NDP party are going to keep jumping in front of bullets for the Trudeau liberals to keep them
00:00:23.780 in office until October 2025. But there is a lot of value in having these votes of no confidence.
00:00:31.340 You could say that, well, they're not going to pass, so what's the point? The point is to keep
00:00:36.120 making the NDP show the Canadian people where they stand. Because every day, Jagmeet Singh comes out
00:00:42.480 and says, Trudeau's corrupt. He's serving corporate interests, which isn't even exactly true. Or
00:00:47.900 Justin Trudeau is unfit for office. Justin Trudeau is not helping the working class in our country.
00:00:53.780 And then Jagmeet Singh constantly votes to maintain this government, votes for liberal legislation,
00:01:00.240 backs liberal priorities, backs liberal attack lines on the conservatives. Jagmeet Singh is utterly
00:01:05.920 pathetic. And these no confidence motions make that very clear. I want to break down who voted in favor 1.00
00:01:12.280 and against this no confidence vote. And then I also want to talk about this amazing troll that
00:01:19.260 Pyre Polyev is currently pulling off on Jagmeet Singh, which again, is very politically intelligent,
00:01:24.620 because as the liberal party bleeds out support, there's a realistic chance a lot of it could go
00:01:31.260 towards the NDP. Pyre Polyev hammering Jagmeet Singh on all these votes ensures that like 80-90%
00:01:38.700 of all the votes that the liberals are losing are going to be going towards the conservatives,
00:01:43.100 because it's so clear that Jagmeet Singh is a phony. But before I get into the voting results,
00:01:48.880 I just want to remind you guys, if you're not a subscriber to this channel, make sure you go down
00:01:53.160 and hit the subscribe button, hit the like button, leave a comment. And if you want to support the
00:01:57.240 show, you can donate to the Give, Send, Go legal fund, both in the description and pinned at the top
00:02:02.320 of the comments. But here is the breakdown of how this vote went. And based on what conservative
00:02:07.580 MPs were saying, it sounds like the NDP and the liberals didn't even really show up for this vote.
00:02:12.380 There was like a handful of liberal and NDP MPs. And then the rest of them basically just voted
00:02:18.200 on their voting app at home, because I guess they didn't want to show their faces at this vote,
00:02:22.740 especially Jagmeet Singh. But here's how people voted for the no confidence vote. So 119,
00:02:29.240 all the conservatives have voted in favor of it. And the bloc have joined them giving it another 33
00:02:34.160 votes. And then there are two independents, one of which no doubt is Kevin Vaughn. And then on the
00:02:40.080 liberal side, there is, of course, all of the liberals, 153 voting against the no confidence
00:02:45.220 motion, and 25 NDP MPs voting to back them to make sure that the liberal government sticks around.
00:02:54.060 Jagmeet Singh has absolutely nothing to stand on, no leg to stand on these days. He's trying to hit
00:02:59.820 pure poly of on not backing the liberals fake tax break holiday. And at this point, if you are the
00:03:07.980 leader of another party, and all you're doing is seeing liberal talking points coming out and repeating
00:03:13.200 them, you're no longer the leader of your own party, you are basically just a, I guess it's like a,
00:03:19.860 like a ward of the liberal party. You're just some sort of like puppet party for the liberals to use.
00:03:25.560 But in response to all the attacks that Jagmeet Singh has been making on Polyev, but then being too 0.99
00:03:30.900 weak to put his money where his mouth is, and actually vote against Trudeau, Polyev is proposing
00:03:35.440 yet another no confidence motion. Here Polyev says, I agree with Jagmeet Singh that the Trudeau
00:03:42.080 government is greedy and anti-worker. Now Jagmeet Singh will have a chance to vote for a no confidence
00:03:48.120 motion made up entirely of his own words. Will Jagmeet Singh vote yes or no on his own words?
00:03:54.940 This is hilarious. This is actually amazing. Because again, Jagmeet Singh can get away with,
00:04:01.440 well, I don't want a carbon tax election, although Jagmeet Singh is now apparently against the consumer
00:04:05.820 carbon tax. He can say, well, I don't want to vote against the liberal government just so that the
00:04:11.960 conservatives can step in, or I don't want to agree with the conservatives on their messed up
00:04:16.280 priorities or whatever Jagmeet Singh's excuses. So now Jagmeet Singh has to openly disagree with
00:04:21.680 himself and say, oh, actually Trudeau is not that bad. He's not as bad as I say he is by voting to
00:04:28.480 keep Trudeau around on a no confidence motion based on Jagmeet Singh's own words. So this no
00:04:35.000 confidence motion says common sense conservative motion. Whereas the leader of the new democratic
00:04:40.000 party said he ripped up his supply and confidence agreement with the liberal government. Whereas the
00:04:45.480 NDP leader said the liberals are too weak, too selfish and too beholden to corporate interests
00:04:50.080 to fight for people. Whereas the NDP leader said the liberal government will always cave to corporate
00:04:55.440 greed and always step in to make sure the unions have no power. In response to the liberals labor
00:05:00.860 ministers referral to the Canadian industrial relations board that ordered the workers of the
00:05:05.600 Teamsters Canada Rail Conference and the ILWU 514 to resume their duties violating their rights to
00:05:13.100 strike. Therefore, the House agrees with the NDP leader and the House proclaims it has lost confidence
00:05:18.420 in the prime minister and the government. This is good politics. This, when I say this is how politics
00:05:25.280 really works, I mean so much politics is just based on positioning, messaging, how you stick your
00:05:31.840 opponent in the corner. And Jagmeet Singh has been pretty much in the corner for the last two years
00:05:37.720 now. Now, pure poly of is like pressing him into the corner. How can Jagmeet Singh survive constantly
00:05:44.720 voting to maintain the liberals along these lines? Jagmeet Singh, in my opinion, is really just sticking
00:05:51.640 around and not calling an election because the NDP, one, is bankrupt. Two, his caucus really wants their
00:05:57.840 pensions. I kind of think that Jagmeet wants his pension. Like, obviously, everyone wants more
00:06:03.920 money. There's not that many people on this planet who's like, ew, money. Not that it's like, although
00:06:08.580 he's being greedy here, but I get it. People like getting the pension. But I think the thing that rules
00:06:14.880 over all this for Jagmeet Singh is Jagmeet Singh loves being a political celebrity. Jagmeet Singh likes going on
00:06:22.300 Twitch streams with Hassan Piker, Chank Uyghur's nephew from the Young Turks. He likes hanging out with 1.00
00:06:27.800 AOC and Ilhan Omar from the U.S. He likes knowing that when you take a snapshot of history and
00:06:34.140 Canadian politics during these last five or six years, you must talk about Jagmeet Singh. Even if
00:06:40.360 he is a completely irrelevant, transitory figure for the NDP, even if he's a complete coward, he likes 0.89
00:06:47.700 being in front of cameras. He likes wearing nice suits. He likes pulling up in a Maserati in front of 0.85
00:06:53.900 parliament, which he just did today, because it makes him feel special. And that's all Jagmeet Singh
00:06:59.300 wants. And in response to all this, while he's being absolutely hammered by Pure Polyev over this
00:07:05.980 last week, we now have Jagmeet Singh doubling down on his liberal talking points. Jagmeet Singh in this
00:07:12.040 post says, the mask is off. Pure Polyev is breaking. He will vote against the GST holiday for middle-class 0.92
00:07:18.240 Canadians. The same guy who voted for massive corporate handouts. Now Canadians can really see
00:07:23.640 who this guy is. And then for some reason, he just posts this comment with a lot of white space
00:07:28.060 around it. And just this person saying, funny how the axe attacks guy is against axing attacks,
00:07:33.440 even temporarily. I hope Canadians will finally start to acknowledge his hypocrisy. I've explained 0.94
00:07:38.880 this before. I'll explain it again quickly. The GST holiday and the HST holiday is nice for people
00:07:45.600 between December 17th and February 17th. You get to pay no GST and HST. That's nice,
00:07:52.480 but it's a scam. And it's meant to just basically make people feel a little bit better about the
00:07:57.980 carbon tax hike that's about to come in April. And make no mistake, there is no coincidence in the
00:08:04.780 fact that the carbon tax goes up on April 1st. It doubles on April 1st. And then after that,
00:08:10.500 everyone gets a $250 check in the mail from this new handout that Justin Trudeau is pushing.
00:08:16.440 And Jagmeet saying backs too. The gains that people are going to get, not really gains,
00:08:21.700 but the savings people are going to get from the GST holiday, and it kicks in so late into the
00:08:26.080 holiday season, it's not really going to affect that much holiday shopping. And then it ends in
00:08:30.360 February. January and February are notorious for being very low sale months for every type of business.
00:08:35.840 So after those two months, you then start getting slammed every single day by the carbon tax at a
00:08:41.980 much higher rate. Ooh, but don't worry, you get a $250 check to distract you from the fact that you're
00:08:48.380 going to have that $250 get completely wiped out by higher food, food prices, gas prices, higher service
00:08:54.960 prices, higher everything prices. My goodness. And this was paired up with, oh, this one's quite funny.
00:09:01.840 Here is the photo of him with the Maserati walking in with his nice jacket and his nice,
00:09:07.100 you know, custom leather bag. And I don't bemoan people for liking nice things. If anything,
00:09:14.060 Jagmeet Singh does have a good sense of fashion. He honestly wears nice suits. He has an eye for a
00:09:19.380 nice suit and a nice watch. Nice watch, Jagmeet, you wear a nice Rolex. But the reason why it's so
00:09:25.880 ironic is because Jagmeet Singh is a champagne socialist. And champagne socialists love to pretend
00:09:31.820 that they care about working class people. They love to pretend that they're fighting back against 1.00
00:09:36.700 inequality and inequity on all that stuff. Although I don't really believe equity is a big issue. But
00:09:42.740 they'll go after all this stuff. At the same time, he doesn't live like it at all. He gets to strike
00:09:48.140 a pose on all this stuff. He is a strike, oppose, lefty populist. And he's not, he doesn't mean it at
00:09:54.900 all. So I want to get up to this video he put out recently, this extremely whiny video,
00:10:00.220 him going after Polyev over the HST thing. Once again today, short, shortly before Pierre Polyev
00:10:07.160 called him out for the new no confidence vote. In this post, Jagmeet Singh says,
00:10:11.840 Pierre Polyev and his conservative MPs vote to keep the tax on your groceries and kids diapers,
00:10:16.540 but gave billions, billionaires a tax handout. They don't give a damn about you. Oh my goodness,
00:10:22.860 he's using swear words. This is straight up garbage. Pierre Polyev calls a little tax. 1.00
00:10:30.100 Dude, sorry, what is this? What is this video immediately? It's like we have some kayfabe
00:10:34.600 like wrestling video from the back of the day. I'm calling out Pierre Polyev on all of his tax and
00:10:40.880 spend garbage. Settle down, dude. This is so, again, he is such a strike, oppose populist. 0.99
00:10:47.920 He's here striking a pose on Pierre Polyev despite him having no point. This is straight up garbage. 0.99
00:10:55.480 Pierre Polyev calls a little tax relief for working class Canadians a tax trick. But when he gave 0.99
00:11:02.260 60 billion dollars. What's with the camera movement here? My goodness. Me and my crew are rolling up to
00:11:09.880 parliament to tell Pierre Polyev it's not cool to oppose the GST HST cut. And I'm going to see him in the
00:11:16.580 ring this Monday, Monday, Monday, Monday for WWE Raw or whatever. To his corporate buddies,
00:11:24.040 he was fine with that. You know what I call it? Boot licking for billionaires.
00:11:29.340 Man, Jagmeet Singh's so cool. How did this man become so cool? He's just so good at politics.
00:11:35.980 Obviously, I'm being facetious. Jagmeet Singh is so bad at politics. The liberals are bleeding out on the
00:11:41.600 floor politically. Nobody wants to vote for the liberals. Trudeau has a 22%, 23% approval rating,
00:11:47.980 according to Abacus data. And the NDP haven't budged an inch in terms of their support. It should
00:11:53.880 be easier than ever to be the NDP right now. They are in a 2011 Jack Layton, Michael Ignatiev type scenario,
00:12:01.840 where Trudeau is as, if not more unpopular than Ignatiev was. And if Jagmeet Singh could just put
00:12:07.700 his pants on, he would actually gain massive amounts of support. Obviously, I'm a conservative
00:12:12.720 and I want to see Jagmeet fail as much as the next guy. But again, I've said this in so many videos,
00:12:17.600 I at least want the opponents of conservatives to be confident because iron sharpens iron. And even if
00:12:23.700 I disagree with the NDP and the liberals and the greens and the blocs perspective on things,
00:12:28.880 I want them to be competent politically, because it makes the conservatives more competent in the
00:12:34.800 long run. I have an article that I want to release at some point. And I think the title was something
00:12:39.380 like the conservatives need to learn how to win elections, not wait until the liberals lose them.
00:12:44.140 Because so often, conservatives don't win elections, they just kind of act like we're the
00:12:49.640 professional people, we're the better option waiting in the wings until Canadians get tired of 0.98
00:12:54.280 the liberals. They're bad at attacking them. Like pure poly of is very good at launching attacks. 1.00
00:12:58.880 If anything, it's kind of disappointing that Trudeau isn't on top of his game right now.
00:13:03.600 Because I think that Polyev could have beaten the 2015 version of Trudeau. I think that Polyev
00:13:08.440 could have beaten Jack Layton if he was also in this race. I think that he actually has the
00:13:12.420 metal to do it. But the problem is now the conservatives I don't find are going to learn
00:13:16.540 as many good campaigning lessons, aren't going to learn good political lessons, because it's too easy
00:13:21.320 to blow over the liberals. I even say that I wish the conservatives would be more hawkish on
00:13:26.800 immigration right now. They should be coming out and saying we want a cap of 100,000 permanent 0.99
00:13:31.320 residents. And we want to slash new visas for workers and students by 80% foreign workers and
00:13:36.880 students, because we have to catch up on the housing crisis. And we need people who have who have
00:13:42.200 overstayed their visas to get out of the country. That is a perfectly moderate position right now.
00:13:48.080 If anything, I would like that to be the capped at rate for immigration for the next decade or two.
00:13:54.660 Because at the end of the day, the Canadian government is supposed to be serving citizens
00:13:58.340 first, and not even foreign people second. It's just that it's supposed to be putting Canadians first,
00:14:04.380 and then everyone else can show up in this country if they have skills to provide, if they are genuinely
00:14:12.080 refugees. And most refugee claimants these days are just not that genuine. That's fine, 1.00
00:14:17.480 but that's supplementary to the country. We have to be doing the meat and potato stuff right first,
00:14:23.580 before you can have more people enter the country. You secure the country first, and then you let a few 1.00
00:14:29.360 more people in. So that's where I wish the conservatives would be a little bit more
00:14:32.380 definite on that issue, because it would be smart for them, because they would gain support.
00:14:36.820 And I know there's probably people doing focus groups for them, and consultants who have been around,
00:14:41.840 frankly, politics too long. People who think it's still 2005, taking an aggressive position on an issue,
00:14:47.260 is going to freak people out. Freaking people out doesn't, you can't freak people out by being right.
00:14:52.320 That's not how that works. If you explain your position well enough, people will come and join you.
00:14:57.400 Polyev has done that very well on issues like defund the CBC. Obviously, people were pushing that
00:15:02.840 before he showed up, but the way that he has taken the issue and run with it has been very good.
00:15:07.920 And so, this sounds weird. It's like, I want the conservative party to learn from their leader more,
00:15:12.520 and stop having the leader try and learn from people in the party who have failed in the past.
00:15:17.480 Anyways, that should be it for me today, guys. Again, if you want to support the show,
00:15:22.680 like this video, subscribe, and if you want to donate to the Give, Send, Go, that really helps me out.
00:15:28.020 It's linked in the description below, as well as pins at the top of the comments. See you guys all later.
00:15:32.920 We'll see you next time.
