00:00:00.000 One of the many luxuries granted to those who do not live in Canada is the ability to not have to listen to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
00:00:08.580 It's quite remarkable that the Liberal Party has never swapped out Trudeau with someone more professional and more appealing to mainstream Canadians,
00:00:17.160 because they've now gone through two elections where, even though the Liberals play on easy mode in terms of the electoral map in Canada,
00:00:23.440 they haven't been able to win back their majority, and now Justin Trudeau is just having these weird temper tantrums and tirades in Parliament,
00:00:32.360 as if somehow a bunch of Canadians are going to come back to him because he does not have emotional control.
00:00:38.300 Conservative leader Pierre Polyev just asked Justin Trudeau a basic question that is in the Canadian public interest,
00:00:44.380 and, like always, not only did Justin Trudeau not answer it, he went on a strange tangent about Alex Jones
00:00:51.100 and how Pierre Polyev is a very bad, evil, nasty man because Alex Jones gave him the endorsement,
00:00:56.880 which Pierre Polyev is under no obligation to condemn him because he doesn't know Alex Jones, doesn't care about him, and has no association.
00:01:04.040 But here's a clip from the House of Commons.
00:01:06.280 The Parliamentary Budget Officer's report, which confirms 60% of Canadians pay more than they get back.
00:01:13.140 The Prime Minister said, and I quote in 2015, Canadians need a PM who will meet with the Premiers.
00:01:19.120 What happened?
00:01:21.100 The Right Honourable Prime Minister.
00:01:24.840 While the Conservative leader continues with his misinformation and disinformation,
00:01:29.160 the reality is the Parliamentary Budget Officer said that 8 out of 10 Canadians do better
00:01:35.460 with our price on pollution and the Canada carbon rebate.
00:01:38.780 But speaking of misinformation and disinformation,
00:01:42.060 any responsible leader that receives an endorsement and support
00:01:46.760 from proven conspiracy theorist and liar Alex Jones would have immediately denounced that.
00:01:53.300 But that's not what the leader of the opposition did.
00:01:55.700 He did absolutely nothing because those kinds of endorsements fit within his political strategy.
00:02:00.620 By that logic, what also fits in the Liberal Party's political strategy is getting thank you notes from Hamas. 0.94
00:02:09.540 Hamas literally cut a video thanking the Canadian government for voting in favour of policies that are going to try and protect their terrorist government in Gaza.
00:02:18.820 And he's also the one that, can we all remember, ended up endorsing China's basic dictatorship.
00:02:25.500 That's not even like Xi Jinping said something nice about Justin Trudeau.
00:02:30.420 That's Justin Trudeau saying something nice about Xi Jinping, as we all remember.
00:02:34.060 He asked which country he most admired and referred to China.
00:02:37.820 There's a level of admiration I actually have for China.
00:02:43.920 Because their basic dictatorship is allowing them to actually turn their economy around on a dime and say,
00:02:52.180 we need to go green as fast as we need to start investing in solar.
00:02:55.800 And I like how he also likes China's basic dictatorship, not for like odd side benefits that it's given China,
00:03:04.280 not like, well, you know, they have low crime or something like that.
00:03:07.300 I actually don't believe that China has low crime if you go to certain areas.
00:03:10.960 But, you know, homogenous societies also tend to have low crime naturally.
00:03:14.080 He's not saying stuff like that.
00:03:15.200 He's like, oh, I admire China's basic dictatorship because it allows the government to crush people's ability to use the fuel and energies that they want.
00:03:23.060 Pierre Paglia, back in that House of Commons clip, which is asking Justin Trudeau why he won't meet with premiers.
00:03:29.720 Pretty much every premier except Francois Legault and David Eby in British Columbia,
00:03:35.400 like want a meeting with him to review the carbon tax and at least demand a pause be put on it for the next few years.
00:03:42.120 Well, Canada's economy, like, let's just be honest, is in a recession.
00:03:46.360 We're in a recession.
00:03:47.520 We know we are.
00:03:48.300 And, yes, the liberals can come out with growth numbers showing that, no, Canada's not in a recession.
00:03:53.600 Our economy grew by 0.4% in January.
00:03:57.000 It didn't.
00:03:57.680 What happened was the government is taxing people more and printing people more money.
00:04:02.220 And they hired a bunch of, like, public employees to do what is effectively digging ditches and then filling them back in.
00:04:10.040 Jobs people did not need done are now being filled for so that the liberals can pretend as if we have massive job growth.
00:04:17.540 And the GDP is growing when really it's just these same dollars or printed money being whipped through the economy by the government benefiting nobody because it's not actual productive work behind that money.
00:04:29.960 You can have people working all day long doing things that nobody wants them to do.
00:04:34.880 That doesn't mean you have a high GDP.
00:04:36.740 It just means a lot of people are getting their hands dirty doing things that nobody wanted them to do.
00:04:42.420 Like, an economy, at the end of the day, it's not run on, like, dollars in the economy.
00:04:47.760 It's not run by the amount of services the government offers or anything like that.
00:04:52.340 At the end of the day, the economy runs on productivity.
00:04:55.520 It runs on people actually extracting things out of the ground or making them into other things.
00:05:00.660 The service economy and the government economy is purely supplementary to an actual economy that does stuff.
00:05:09.540 But, you know, don't tell Justin Trudeau that because it would probably blow up his brain.
00:05:13.300 The man's not used to thinking about tough concepts like that.
00:05:17.140 But, yeah, this is the state of Canada.
00:05:20.100 Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party are trying to win the next election off of the fact that a man that people don't like from the U.S.
00:05:27.140 endorsed Piripolyev, a man that Piripolyev has never met.
00:05:31.420 And so this is something that the Liberal Party is going all in on.
00:05:35.160 And I don't think it's exactly working for them, even though they put up the clip themselves,
00:05:40.520 conveniently removing Piripolyev's question because the question being asked to Trudeau was very damaging to him.
00:05:46.760 They just put the 20 seconds of him mentioning Alex Jones in the clip.
00:05:50.500 And even in that post, that got a lot of attention.
00:05:53.340 They even got ratioed on that.
00:05:54.760 I think they got like 3,000 likes and it was like 3,700 comments of people being like,
00:06:00.640 don't you admire China's basic dictatorship?
00:06:02.840 Aren't you in favor of Hamas? 0.71
00:06:04.360 Didn't you just restore funding to the UNRWA, which is a terrorist front group?
00:06:09.300 Guys, you can, you know, try being a little bit less hypocritical.
00:06:14.060 But, you know, who am I to tell Justin Trudeau what to do?
00:06:17.080 I have a brain and he doesn't, which means that I am privileged and I should not be trying to talk down to him as a member of the privileged class of people who have a brain.
00:06:28.000 Anyways, have a good one, everyone.
00:06:30.260 I just want to quickly plug the fact that I, Wyatt Claypool, I'm running for the Calgary Signal Hill Conservative Party nomination.
00:06:36.120 It's on the west side of Calgary.
00:06:37.200 If you live on the west side of Calgary, if you live within these riding boundaries, buy a membership, vote for me.
00:06:42.840 Check out my website in the description below, WyattClaypool.com.
00:06:46.240 And if you don't live in the riding, consider donating to mine and the National Telegraph's legal fund.
00:06:52.480 Help us, protect us from the massive amounts of legal bills we have, fighting off frivolous lawsuits from developers or other sort of nefarious political actors.
00:07:00.900 All these lawsuits that we've been in just keep getting dragged out because the person who filed them knows it's complete nonsense.
00:07:07.520 And so they don't want to get to the end of the court case where they actually might owe us all of our costs, if not more, back.
00:07:13.800 Anyways, have a go when everyone see you around.
