The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - This Canadian Election is A Disaster! (ft. Anthony Russo)

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here with my co-host Anthony Russo to talk about the ongoing disaster

00:00:06.580 that is the new BC provincial election. How are you doing, Anthony?

00:00:12.360 Well, the clown show continues, Wyatt, but I'm doing well.

00:00:16.100 Yeah, it's both going quite well for us with 1BC at the same time. It's extremely stressful.

00:00:22.620 I think after this election, there needs to be a review of election procedures. The idea

00:00:27.020 that a premier gets to call his own election whenever he wants gets to secretly plan the

00:00:32.280 entire thing in the background and then just launch it on all of us seems highly unethical

00:00:37.880 and anti-democratic because we are getting a lot of candidates lined up for the party but it is one

00:00:43.140 of those things where you're doing this big sprint over just a little more than a week to get people

00:00:48.300 from going from maybe never thinking about it to actually getting their signatures being on a ballot

00:00:52.820 and hitting doors. All the while being in the middle of a municipal election just to make

00:00:58.720 matters even more confusing and more difficult, Wyatt. Yeah, and there's tons of people who'd

00:01:04.440 probably run in the provincial election. You know, a lot of municipal races are just complete

00:01:09.540 slogs with a lot of random brands running against each other, you know, formidable candidates,

00:01:15.760 but maybe gotten a little bit late or whatever, and you end up losing. That's not really the

00:01:21.860 the the i guess the measure of who's a good candidate or not and many of these people who

00:01:27.280 probably know that they're not going to maybe win these municipal elections would probably

00:01:31.900 be willing to run in a provincial race but well what do you do now do i just you know just cancel

00:01:37.880 on all my supporters for the school board trustee position and council position and run for a party

00:01:42.780 provincially and some people are choosing to do that the conservatives have had a couple of those

00:01:48.000 so far where actual sitting mayor is running for re-election midway through, cancel their

00:01:52.880 re-election, maybe they were going to win, maybe they were going to lose, and now they're running

00:01:56.420 for the BC Conservative Party. Well, yeah, case in point, the Vernon Lumbee candidate, Kevin Acton

00:02:02.900 for the Conservatives, he's currently the mayor of Lumbee, and he was running for re-election.

00:02:08.160 So it kind of begs the question, what happens in this particular circumstance when you have

00:02:12.460 somebody that's running for mayor who's now running for provincial office? It's going to be

00:02:15.960 interesting to see the outcome for Lumbee here. Absolutely. And yeah, like Megan Knight in South

00:02:21.820 Surrey did the same thing. She was the White Rock mayor. And now she's not only not running for 1.00

00:02:26.780 White Rock's mayoral mayoralship anymore. She's not even running in White Rock for the provincial

00:02:32.960 election, which is very strange. There's a lot of strange things going on right now with the

00:02:37.980 BC conservatives. There was this video that came out yesterday from this Chinese gentleman in

00:02:43.900 Richmond. I believe he's actually a Chinese content creator in Richmond. And Teresa Watt,

00:02:49.720 one of the BC conservative MLAs, formerly also a BC liberal and center BC MLA,

00:02:58.720 she was here celebrating with them at their, I guess, their, you know,

00:03:03.180 pledge to vote party rally happening in Richmond.

00:03:06.460 now that's not too weird on its surface until you realize who this particular gentleman is as you

00:03:20.200 can see here i said the bc conservatives hanging out with this guy is a massive red flag why did

00:03:25.640 i say that well this is a post he had a couple days ago that he is now deleted this guy says

00:03:31.640 last night in the dead of night conservative party board members met with pink hoping to gain our

00:03:36.900 support richmond this time our demands are very simple 60 of richmond voters are of chinese

00:03:42.020 descent we only support candidates of chinese descent or mixed chinese descent plus candidates

00:03:46.400 with chinese spouses we are not racist we are simply open openly upholding the lifestyle and

00:03:52.560 cultural values of chinese communities in chinese majority areas we simply believe that richmond's

00:03:57.940 leaders understanding the romance of the three kingdoms and liking to eat chinese word and some

00:04:03.580 other stuff and and stirred fried pig intestines extremely important for richmond's cultural

00:04:08.600 diversity and this is not a parody post this is something he actually believes and he says any

00:04:13.780 candidate who does not meet the above two conditions will not receive our support and this

00:04:19.000 is somebody that the conservatives have quoted the support of it's basically a dei hiring request from

00:04:25.520 the chinese for the chinese uh community there which is just hilarious he's like chinese david

00:04:31.220 duke from the kkk he's just like we're not racist we just only want to interact and speak with

00:04:37.800 chinese people and who cares about the 40 of people in our community who are not chinese or 0.88

00:04:44.480 at least mixed chinese like what are we even doing here people but you can shamelessly hang

00:04:51.640 out with that man and apparently not get criticism from mainstream news. I want to highlight some

00:04:57.160 other stuff that is currently going on with the Conservative Party. This was a candidate

00:05:00.760 that they ended up announcing last night. He's run for the Conservatives in a previous

00:05:07.720 election as well in 24, but he was also the BC United candidate in 2024.

00:05:16.220 Aaron Legere for Vancouver Kensington. This is someone I'm not even familiar with, but

00:05:21.340 this seems to be the common thread through this entire election here, Wyatt, is that if you were

00:05:27.540 a former BC United, you are basically slated now to be the top candidate for the BC Conservative

00:05:32.700 Party. Yeah, and I hear that the person that they may run into Chackle Lakes to replace John Rustad

00:05:38.480 is the BC United candidate that originally wanted to run against him. This Aaron guy,

00:05:44.420 Ligari, says on his Facebook as of December 2025, this is not 20 years ago, it's not 10 years

00:05:51.280 ago this is less than a year ago he says many canadian organizations and associations lack

00:05:57.400 diversity and ethnic representation within their general bodies particularly in leadership and

00:06:02.940 decision making roles due to the structural and cultural barriers embedded in their policies and

00:06:07.400 practices research shows that racialized and indigenous people remain significantly

00:06:12.720 underrepresented on boards and then senior management one this is clearly like ai slop

00:06:18.760 that he's posted, but it's very left-wing AI slop, I will point out. Yes, just more DEI from

00:06:25.680 the Conservatives. At this particular point, I wonder if they might add some form of a DEI policy

00:06:30.900 to their campaign platform, considering this is the candidates that they're putting forward. You

00:06:35.160 know what, Wyatt? Like, at this point, a Conservative party trying to uphold the values

00:06:39.200 of conservatism certainly isn't being represented that way based on the candidates that they're

00:06:43.080 putting forward. And it's turned into a completely meaningless election that we at 1BC are trying to

00:06:51.480 inject some meaning into. Because every day, all I see on social media from conservative people,

00:06:57.440 you know, BC conservative stalwarts, is that we have to beat the NDP. We have to beat the NDP.

00:07:02.640 It doesn't matter. We have to beat the NDP. And it's like, well, what does beating the NDP mean?

00:07:08.620 Because when I think beating the NDP, I think about the full slate of their policies that I absolutely detest, the tax rates, the regulations, DRIPA, not replacing it with a Reconciliation Act like the BC Conservatives want to do.

00:07:23.080 That's what I think about when I think beating the NDP, actually erasing the damage the NDP has done, not simply switching who's sitting in the Premier's office and making very minor, tinkering little changes around the corners.

00:07:36.860 because if that's really what this is about, just changing the party in power,

00:07:41.460 then politics has become meaningless and people shouldn't vote.

00:07:44.980 Yeah, it makes you really wonder.

00:07:47.120 For some of us, we've already hit that breaking point when it comes to the Conservative Party

00:07:51.020 because we've basically been kicked in the teeth.

00:07:53.460 But it seems as though the expectation is, no, no, no, just take it.

00:07:57.220 Just stand there and take it.

00:07:58.260 Take another kick, take another punch.

00:07:59.860 We know that it doesn't matter because you're going to do whatever it takes to keep the NDP out.

00:08:02.940 But at some point, we need to ask if we're actually going to have real change in this province, how far are we willing to go?

00:08:09.240 How far are we willing to compromise?

00:08:11.420 And with the conservative platform right now, like now we're talking about what replacing DRIPA, replacing SOGI with what?

00:08:19.000 With what? We want to repeal those programs completely, gut them start to finish.

00:08:23.900 They need to be out of the province.

00:08:25.600 And to do that, we need to have strong people, strong candidates with real conviction that are going to stand for their constituents.

00:08:31.640 And that's not what we're seeing put forward. Take a look at, Wyatt, the candidate that they've put forward for the Saanich North Islands. Unbelievable. The Saanich North Islands and his voting record. From my understanding, the candidate that they've placed there is a former Green Party candidate and then federal liberal.

00:08:49.260 Yeah, I'm going to bring up his record in just a second here. I did make my own post on it the other day. It's embarrassing because you're basically trying to force conservative voters to violate their own principles to get you into office, to basically water themselves down as voters by accepting that I guess I have to vote for the former Green and Trudeau liberal in order to beat the NDP.

00:09:15.040 And it's actually like ideologically poisonous to get people used to the idea that even taking the slightest step to the right of the NDP is good enough to vote for.

00:09:25.720 So this is the post I made the other day.

00:09:28.680 This is the candidate, Ryan Windsor, for Saanich North and the Islands.

00:09:32.200 His record is BC Green candidate in 2009, Municipal Green candidate in 2011, Municipal Green candidate again for a by-election in 2013, and he was a federal Trudeau liberal in 2019.

00:09:44.560 not 2015 where maybe you could have said he tricked you with the good vibes and whatnot

00:09:49.200 no no in 2019 after snc lavalin after the first four years clearly didn't go very well that's why

00:09:57.580 he wanted to join the team then and now he is your proud bc conservative candidate for the 2026

00:10:05.580 election yeah and i mean the green party is literally further left than the ndp they view

00:10:13.220 the NDP as more moderate centrists, but for the Conservative Party of BC, that former history is

00:10:20.140 sufficient to run for Conservative. And you know what? It's not just about the political spectrum,

00:10:24.200 the left versus right. We're already, the Conservatives have fully compromised on the

00:10:28.360 left versus right placement. But it's more than that. You know what they want you to say? Hey,

00:10:32.080 guys, you know what? It's just a little bit of corruption. It's just a little bit of Indo-packing.

00:10:37.240 It's just a little bit of paper ballot tinkering. It's just a little bit of blackmail. And you know 0.97

00:10:42.060 what? That's totally fine. Just continue to vote for us. Change is going to come. We're going to

00:10:46.020 fix it after the election. We've got no confidence that these guys are going to fix anything post

00:10:50.200 election. And you're going to fix it post election with a caucus that will be more left than it was

00:10:56.280 after the 24 election. So things are going to get worse, but then it's suddenly going to get all

00:10:59.940 better. Here's another one. I've been doing this series on X where I always just say every single

00:11:05.040 time, pretty much every time the Conservatives announce a candidate. Now they're not like all

00:11:09.900 obvious liberals. You know, some of them might be conservatives, but some of the conservative guys

00:11:13.760 are usually stuck in dead-on-arrival riding, so it doesn't matter anyways. But here is the person

00:11:19.320 that they are going to be replacing Amelia Boltby with. Amelia Boltby, famously, after she was 0.91

00:11:24.220 elected, eventually left the Conservative Party, sat as an independent, and then later joined the

00:11:29.180 BCNDP. And Amelia Boltby is going to be replaced by Tracy St. Clair, who in fact ran against Boltby

00:11:37.320 in 2024 because Boltby and the Conservatives were too right-wing for her.

00:11:42.300 Yeah, absolutely. I mean, at this point, it doesn't seem to matter how far left somebody is.

00:11:47.640 They will be approved by the Conservative Party of British Columbia. And it's honestly just

00:11:51.620 becoming a mockery. I think everyone's seen the series of memes that have come out now just to

00:11:56.120 kind of point out how crazy some of the candidate selection is. And you know what? It's well-deserved.

00:12:00.400 It's really well-deserved. I had to pat myself on the back for one of those because I think I

00:12:05.560 ended up starting the trend a little bit and i think the original is still the best one even

00:12:09.720 though other people did a good job uh i'm gonna have to go fish that one up for you because there

00:12:14.140 was a trend of like announcing justin trudeau is now your bc conservative candidate in 2026

00:12:19.920 we have xi jinping we have david eby himself is now running uh oh this is the one i ended up

00:12:26.760 putting up so uh it was a few days ago or a couple days ago i announced that in fact leon trotsky

00:12:32.840 is now your candidate for vancouver east don't worry guys he left the soviet union he's not like

00:12:39.100 that anymore and now he's ready to fight the left no i love the one with klaus schwab as well these

00:12:45.080 are they're just comical because they point to a reality right that's what makes the memes accurate

00:12:49.960 is they point to a reality with the candidate selection yeah and and the thing is that like

00:12:54.840 if you're in a riding with a 1bc candidate why would you even vote conservative at this point

00:13:00.980 because if they win, they're really not going to do anything. And two, you are proving to them

00:13:07.020 that you do not have dignity as a voter. You don't have any integrity as a voter because when you

00:13:12.480 actually vote for them after they did the things that they did, then you're effectively signing

00:13:17.240 off on it. Now, 1BC, we're staying out of ridings where it's a tight margin of victory for the

00:13:23.520 incumbent in the last election and the person is a good conservative. I'm not a Puritan here who's

00:13:28.960 going to say none of them are good because they are in, you know, that party. I don't like any

00:13:33.640 of them. Heather Moss is good. Anna Kindy is good. Lawrence Mock is good. We're not getting in the 1.00

00:13:38.840 way of those people. We are putting a conservative on the ballot where there is no conservative on

00:13:45.300 the ballot. Your riding is a great example. Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream. We talked about

00:13:51.180 this last episode. The BC conservatives put up former liberal candidate Pavneet Singh as their

00:13:57.920 guy who is also the vice president of the party involved in axing carrie lynn finley and involved

00:14:04.760 in helping bus people in fake delegates to the 2025 agm and we're actually running somebody who

00:14:12.020 was going to be a 2024 bc conservative candidate until they were shoved out of the way for gavin

00:14:17.040 due in mission yeah i'm so excited so we have announced today that we're running alexandra

00:14:23.540 Wright for Kelowna Lake Country Coldstream under 1BC. She's a phenomenal candidate. You hit it 0.99

00:14:29.140 right there, Wyatt. She was supposed to run in the 2024 election in Gavendu's Kelowna Mission 1.00

00:14:34.840 riding. And at the absolute last moment, John Rustad said, ah, you know what? We're going to

00:14:40.300 put somebody a little more centrist in there with Gavendu. So Alexandra got the ax. And this is an 0.89

00:14:45.240 incredibly accomplished woman. She's a UCLA educated attorney. She's currently an oil and 0.84

00:14:51.120 gas consultant and she runs a farm here in the Ellison district she's a phenomenal candidate and

00:14:56.420 I'm very excited to be helping her with her campaign yeah and and but like Gavin do is a

00:15:01.940 great example this is a trend that keeps going on people sometimes see the incumbents well they're

00:15:06.300 conservative because they sat as a conservative Gavin do was a BC united guy before he sat as a

00:15:12.540 conservative he ran for the BC liberal leadership race after the 2020 election and I think he came

00:15:19.620 in like last or second last place it was the election where kevin falcon ended up uh winning

00:15:24.840 and you look at that you just shake your head and be like well these aren't conservatives they just

00:15:29.340 ran as conservatives because that's how you win but are people really going to basically be tricked

00:15:34.120 by the fact that if you call tweedle dumb tweedle d people then vote for it even if it's the exact

00:15:40.140 same candidates who were running bc liberal in 2020 and 2024 who were not going to fix any of

00:15:46.600 the problems but don't worry now they're going to fix them even though people like peter millibar

00:15:51.400 and all of his endorsees got behind his leadership platform to replace drippa with their own version

00:15:56.500 of drippa known as the reconciliation act and still the conservatives have absolutely no platform on

00:16:02.900 their website it still just says coming soon you know trust us well we won't cut taxes we won't

00:16:09.800 even cut spending but we will take the pst off canadian alcohol until the leader until the trade

00:16:16.340 conflict is over that's your only tax cut yeah we don't want to help you with your cost of living

00:16:21.780 or bring down your tax burden but hey if you guys want to go get liquored up we'll help with the 0.88

00:16:25.960 bill on that side like what a horrible message to send to british columbians wyatt like it's just

00:16:30.300 disgusting yeah and like 1bc has a platform up doesn't take that long you just have you just

00:16:36.640 have a party with principals you basically type those principals up everyone's like approves them

00:16:42.260 and then you put them out it's not rocket science here you just put up your guiding principles what

00:16:47.380 are we going to do in government it's easy as pie we have reconciliation economics and public

00:16:53.240 finance forestry generational debt health care education housing drugs and addiction firearm

00:16:59.300 ownership criminal justice interprovincial relations it's not complicated to put a robust

00:17:05.400 platform out yeah and 1bc has done an excellent job as far as the tax plan goes we're really the

00:17:11.160 only party option in British Columbia in this election that's actually going to work to bring

00:17:16.140 down that tax burden for the people on both the personal and corporate side and you know what

00:17:21.200 Wyatt it's completely doable we need to start analyzing the government bloat we need to do that

00:17:25.900 176,000 audit of the bureaucrats and bureaucracies that are locking everything up and holding back 1.00

00:17:32.760 our economy from actually becoming fruitful and productive if people recognize that British

00:17:37.740 Columbia on a per capita basis, even when we analyze health care, we have so much more

00:17:42.500 administration per person than almost any other province. And it's in some of these places where

00:17:48.160 we can make some drastic cuts to bring the cost down to the British Columbians who are paying

00:17:52.960 into these taxes anyhow. I believe it was like 10 times more health care administrators or people

00:17:59.620 on boards in the BC health care system compared to Alberta. In fact, with just regulations in

00:18:05.480 general. Individual regulations are not consolidated because like consolidate is like the regulations

00:18:10.420 for a specific thing but there could be a thousand under that one heading. In BC there are 176,000

00:18:18.080 separate government regulations. Ontario only has 120,000. Alberta has 86,000. Alberta has less than

00:18:28.280 half the regulations that BC has and somehow Alberta has not burst into flames from the lack

00:18:35.340 of government bureaucracy yeah 100 and wasn't it just the conservatives the other day they made

00:18:40.280 it a claim we're not going to lower taxes except on your liquor um but we're also not going to be

00:18:45.560 cutting back and we're not going to cut back any services so somehow we're going to have this 13.3

00:18:51.540 billion dollar deficit we're not really going to adjust all that much and we just hope that after 0.90

00:18:56.200 the fact it works itself out like that type of planning does not work for bc it's just asinine

00:19:03.120 It's like none of these people have taken economics 101. The NDP hasn't. They actually

00:19:07.660 tried to criticize the 1BC plan, 25% tax cut across the board, 25% corporate tax cut, two

00:19:14.680 points off the PST. They said, well, that would balloon the deficit by $10 billion.

00:19:20.240 It's like Gordon Campbell did this. This was actually the BC Liberals back when they were

00:19:23.940 actually more of a conservative party for about the first half of the early 2000s than they went

00:19:28.780 actually federal liberal, but they got into office and did a 25% tax cut across the board,

00:19:35.400 all over the place. I think they also reduced the PST as well. Every year after that, the deficit

00:19:41.500 went down until there was a surplus in 2005. Because it turns out when the economy is dying

00:19:47.400 and your deficit is ballooning, you don't stick more blades into the economy trying to bleed out

00:19:52.900 some more tax revenues. You create a productivity boom and you start growing the pie again.

00:19:58.780 I know this is blowing people's minds in the Conservative Party and the NDP, but you in fact

00:20:03.980 need the economy to not die if you want to pay down your debt. Yeah, you know what? We have to

00:20:09.880 give some incentive for people to come back to British Columbia. We've been seeing an exodus

00:20:14.860 from our population, especially amongst the working age individuals. We need to give them 1.00

00:20:19.420 some incentive to come back to British Columbia. Under DRIPA, our natural resources have been

00:20:23.700 completely locked up. The consultation periods with the Indigenous have made it impossible for 1.00

00:20:28.340 the forestry sector, for the mines. And you know what? If we can start to see those areas become 1.00

00:20:32.600 productive again, and we can reduce that taxation, why wouldn't people come back from Alberta that

00:20:38.560 left from BC, get a good paying job with an affordable tax bill? And these are productive

00:20:43.780 people. This adds to our GDP. British Columbia for a long time has been sort of a safety flight

00:20:49.420 for retirement. And when you have a large portion of retirees, they're often utilizing a large

00:20:54.860 portion of services, but they're not giving as much to the total GDP of the province. We need

00:20:59.940 to bring back the working individuals. We need the next generation to see that they can have

00:21:04.740 a future in this province. And it's going to take big swings. And that's exactly what 1BC is

00:21:08.960 proposing. Have you seen what the BCNDB have been doing the entire election so far with their

00:21:14.600 policies? No. What are they doing? I can understand why you don't know what they're

00:21:21.280 doing because they're technically not doing anything what they're doing is it's like david

00:21:26.580 eby has amnesia and he does not know what he was doing since he became premier because every single

00:21:31.860 day on the campaign trail they are just not doing what they were previously doing anymore we're in 0.94

00:21:37.500 fact going to build in bc now no more bc fairies in china we're in fact going to not expand the

00:21:43.220 pst onto other items that were pst exempt we will actually be now expanding lng massively and maybe 0.84

00:21:50.660 trying to build a pipeline and it's like oh my goodness it's like the bc ndp and the conservatives

00:21:55.460 are trying to compete for who can be like less discernible from one another like they basically

00:22:00.660 collided into the same party the conservatives are moving like the conservatives are moving

00:22:05.680 leftward to try and like cut off the ndp and the ndp are trying to move a little rightward

00:22:11.060 and they're like just having an absolute traffic jam on the center left part of the political

00:22:15.840 spectrum right now well it creates a good space for 1bc and you know what it's been exciting seeing

00:22:20.740 some of the very qualified candidates that we've been putting forward one of the ones that i was

00:22:24.600 very excited about was running up against rosalind bird now what can it his name i think was uh

00:22:30.100 mitchell laconee is that right laconee okay so is he not the former president or vice president of

00:22:36.480 her riding association or had some involvement there with her i believe he was on the board the

00:22:40.840 His campaign's being run by Rosalind Byrd's former CA president and campaign manager.

00:22:47.420 And it sounds like pretty much everyone on her previous campaign team has now defected to come over to Mitchell Lucone.

00:22:55.200 So the Conservative Party is going to have to pay a lot of money to get volunteers to hit doors for Rosalind Byrd if they want to actually put together a real campaign at this point.

00:23:04.860 Well, he put out just a hilarious post the other day where he was quoting Rosalind Byrd,

00:23:10.040 where she said she wouldn't be coming back to the BC Conservatives.

00:23:13.800 And lo and behold, here we are.

00:23:15.560 She's back.

00:23:16.120 But unfortunately, she's lost the majority of her volunteers.

00:23:19.620 And you know what?

00:23:20.400 It's good to see.

00:23:20.960 We have a real shot in that riding.

00:23:22.900 Yeah, absolutely.

00:23:23.780 We're kind of in a position, and this is just being real with people, we're in a position

00:23:27.780 where we are a lot like the BC Greens.

00:23:29.800 We're hacking out a more sort of like grassroots, a more sort of orthodox conservative side of the electorate.

00:23:39.640 And so we would have loved to have the full, you know, extra two years to build a campaign and plan and whatnot.

00:23:46.220 That would be brilliant.

00:23:47.660 The snap election happened, so we're going to try and get candidates in as many ridings as possible.

00:23:52.760 We think we're going to have more candidates than the B.C. Greens did in the 2024 provincial election.

00:23:58.040 And we are deliberately staying out of ridings where we're not trying, trying to go after somebody that we think, generally speaking, actually does match our values. But if we ended up getting like 70 candidates on the ballot, something like that, a little bit less, a little bit more, that's already a really big success for us.

00:24:16.020 We're able to stand our ground, actually stand up for the values that people want represented.

00:24:21.040 And if we can pull a couple of ridings out of this election, that's fantastic.

00:24:24.860 But we're building a base for the future so that people don't feel like they're completely homeless and that you have to accept a B.C. liberal version of the Conservative Party.

00:24:34.160 Yeah, you know what's beautiful about 1 B.C.?

00:24:36.240 At 1 B.C., it really is a grassroots movement where the voice of the people is what will be governing this party.

00:24:41.920 It's going to be a representation of our constituents, of our members.

00:24:44.840 and that's really the difference from the Conservatives right now.

00:24:47.680 They basically just spat all over the members who voted in.

00:24:50.160 A democratically elected leader was pushed out.

00:24:52.460 Here's your installed leader.

00:24:53.460 By the way, we're going to amend the Constitution

00:24:55.380 so that you get no voice and no vote after the fact.

00:24:58.180 That's not what 1BC is about.

00:24:59.500 1BC is about representing the membership and the voice of the people.

00:25:03.500 So if anybody's watching this and you are a grassroots Conservative

00:25:06.400 and you want to be involved, we need your help.

00:25:08.480 We need volunteers right now.

00:25:09.800 We need door knockers.

00:25:10.700 We need people to put signs out.

00:25:12.360 We could use all the support we can get.

00:25:14.220 Yeah, I'll be linking that at the top of the comments, the 1BC volunteer link, as well as the donate if you guys want to help fuel the campaign. $100, you get 75% of it back, so it's only $25 to give us $100. That buys a lot of campaign signs, literature, whatnot.

00:25:32.000 if you're if you sign but as a volunteer after we got all the candidates selected that's when

00:25:37.740 it's going to be going into full volunteer organizing we'll be hitting doors telling

00:25:41.740 people the story of what's going on in this election and why you know one bc is the only

00:25:46.040 party actually running on doing things yeah absolutely well wyatt it's been great again

00:25:51.420 to join you on your show today absolutely thanks for coming on anthony and hopefully we will be

00:25:56.940 making another video in the next couple of days updating you on what's going on the election but

00:26:01.240 as you guys can probably tell, it's stressful for us all as we are drinking out of a fire hose trying

00:26:06.360 to make sure that there's actual conservatives on many of these ballots. Anyways, with all that

00:26:10.800 being said, thank you guys for watching and we'll see you next time.
