Transcript

00:00:00.000 The pressure is starting to ratchet up on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau from his own Liberal Party
00:00:05.960 to try and force him to step down as the party's leader before the next election.
00:00:11.500 Last time we talked about this, I discussed Sean Casey, the Liberal MP from Charlottetown,
00:00:17.900 publicly stating that Justin Trudeau should resign.
00:00:20.380 And although in the past few days we haven't had any other Liberal MPs stand up and say he should resign,
00:00:26.980 there's not that many spines in the Liberal Party caucus,
00:00:30.180 there has been four Liberal ministers who have said that they're not running for re-election.
00:00:36.280 And I just happened to go through the 338 website to see what the current projections are
00:00:41.860 in the ridings where these MPs say that they're not going to be running again.
00:00:46.320 I don't even care to go look up their names, it really doesn't matter.
00:00:49.400 Most of these people are pretty faceless at this point, since as there's been so many cabinet shuffles,
00:00:55.140 Trudeau has been slotting in more and more people who didn't have much of a profile
00:01:00.060 and not much of a legacy of actually advocating publicly for policies.
00:01:04.700 They're just kind of Liberal Party apparatchiks who were eventually pushed into cabinet
00:01:09.760 when nobody knew who they were in the first place.
00:01:12.600 So here's some of these ridings.
00:01:14.260 St. Boniface, St. Vitale in Montreal is a riding that the Liberals still have a slight edge for,
00:01:21.780 which the MP is stepping down in.
00:01:24.080 We have Delta, which is going to be a safe conservative flip, it looks like.
00:01:28.220 Same thing with Hamilton West and Castor Dundas, as well as Compton, yeah, Compton Stansted, yes,
00:01:39.200 sorry, I'm bad with French names.
00:01:40.780 That looks like it's a pickup for the Bloc Québécois in this next election.
00:01:45.320 And although there are interviews with some of these ministers who are stepping down saying,
00:01:50.000 well, it was just personal reasons, that's why I'm leaving, I just want to spend more time with my family.
00:01:55.220 For one thing, most politicians don't care about their family.
00:01:58.740 I know most probably do, but I'm just being a bit hyperbolic.
00:02:01.520 Most of them don't think about their family in this sort of warm, touchy-feely way where,
00:02:06.980 oh, I don't spend enough time with them.
00:02:08.580 One, politicians honestly don't work that hard, and they spend a lot of time with their family.
00:02:12.880 So oftentimes when they say, oh, I have family stuff, it just means I didn't want to run
00:02:16.820 because the party is not going to win the next election.
00:02:19.500 Some of them genuinely probably, maybe if they're in their later 60s or early 70s,
00:02:23.700 they genuinely weren't going to run again anyways, but they were going to wait a year
00:02:27.260 before the election until they announced it.
00:02:29.680 But let's be clear, many of these people, I looked up their ages, are in their 40s or 50s.
00:02:35.440 They have a few more election cycles in them if they wanted to.
00:02:39.180 They just know that they're either going to lose, or if they win,
00:02:42.540 they might be the third or fourth biggest party in parliament
00:02:45.980 and have absolutely no effect on the political landscape.
00:02:49.320 It was, it's so bad right now for the Liberal Party that when I saw these two posts
00:02:55.060 from Ahmed Hussain, as well as Karen Goland, Karina Gould,
00:03:01.000 when I saw these and it says nine years ago,
00:03:03.460 I was given the most incredible opportunity to serve our community.
00:03:07.960 Together, we have made some incredible progress.
00:03:10.040 And Ahmed Hussain had said something along the same lines.
00:03:13.280 Nine years ago, we were given a big opportunity or whatever.
00:03:16.100 I thought they were going to resign because that's usually how you start a resignation tweet.
00:03:22.280 You know, it's been a wild nine years, guys.
00:03:25.320 You know, we fought like hell and now I'm going to go and retire somewhere.
00:03:30.140 You know, it's just my time to go, guys.
00:03:31.900 It's just my time to go.
00:03:33.280 It's not because I'm going to lose.
00:03:34.460 It's just my time to leave.
00:03:36.060 These people are, it's so bad that I even interpret these people trying to pump themselves up
00:03:40.860 as they're about to tell everyone,
00:03:43.120 by the way, I'm not seeking re-election.
00:03:45.900 And now we have a Liberal caucus meeting scheduled for next week,
00:03:49.740 which it sounds like there's a bunch of backbenchers who are going to try and put pressure on Justin Trudeau
00:03:54.940 to either allow for a leadership review where Liberal Party members can vote on whether or not
00:04:00.380 they actually want Trudeau to stay on as the leader,
00:04:02.980 or they're just going to tell him to outright get out of the way so that they can have a leadership race.
00:04:07.400 Because I'm wondering if some of these people even resigned from cabinet recently,
00:04:11.960 said they're not running for re-election,
00:04:13.960 which allows them to now join the ranks of people saying that he has to go.
00:04:18.420 Because they don't want to be part of cabinet as well as be getting, like, attacking Trudeau.
00:04:23.420 They kind of want that one step back, kind of.
00:04:25.920 I'm about to leave anyway, so I'm just telling you my opinion openly.
00:04:29.140 Even Nate Erickson-Smith, who is kind of still a big Justin Trudeau fanboy in the caucus,
00:04:34.660 he's the one who has his own podcast he runs.
00:04:38.880 I think it's called Unparliamentary or whatever.
00:04:40.880 He's the one who freaked out the other day, the weirdo vegan who started swearing in a committee meeting
00:04:45.860 because he couldn't hold himself back.
00:04:47.640 I guess, you know, didn't have enough protein in his system or something like that.
00:04:50.580 I'm just being cheeky.
00:04:51.840 But even he, when he released a video trying to defend Justin Trudeau,
00:04:55.800 when he was at his almost near bottom when it comes to popularity,
00:04:59.980 right after the Toronto-St. Paul by-election loss,
00:05:03.300 he wouldn't say Trudeau should resign, but he said,
00:05:05.920 you know, maybe it's time for a new generation.
00:05:08.720 Maybe we need a leadership review.
00:05:10.300 Maybe we need to have more interaction from the leader to build confidence.
00:05:15.440 That's a kind way of saying no.
00:05:17.660 It's like when Anthony Housefather was on Vashi Capello's show on CTV News,
00:05:21.600 and she was asking about, there were some issues about Samadu being listed as a terrorist organization
00:05:29.180 in Canada that they were discussing, which is a legitimate issue to discuss.
00:05:33.080 That's not fluff at all.
00:05:34.480 But she pivoted during the interview to, hey, are you part of this list of MPs we hear
00:05:39.560 who have signed a letter asking Justin Trudeau to resign?
00:05:42.640 And Anthony Housefather, in two and a half minutes, I believe,
00:05:46.400 of them discussing it back and forth, him and Vashi Capello's,
00:05:49.120 refused to say that he wasn't on the list.
00:05:51.120 And if he was actually still backing Trudeau, or at least doesn't really care
00:05:55.340 and is just trying to put on a good show, he would just say,
00:05:57.760 Justin Trudeau still has my full and strong support.
00:06:01.620 He wouldn't say that because he obviously doesn't.
00:06:04.260 And at this caucus meeting, the problem that the liberals are going to run into,
00:06:07.960 and I'll bring this back up on screen because this is good to know.
00:06:10.180 One, they don't have anyone to really replace Trudeau with.
00:06:12.600 This was the polling that was done back in April, but I've seen it more recently,
00:06:16.540 and it's pretty much the same, that nobody really has a strong feeling towards any of
00:06:21.340 the potential liberal replacements for Trudeau.
00:06:24.620 Whenever you pull people on preferred replacements, Freeland gets 13%, Mark Carney, 11%,
00:06:29.540 Melanie Jolie, 5%, Frank Philippe Champagne, 5%,
00:06:32.760 4%, Dominic LeBlanc, 4%, Sean Frazier, 3%, Anita Anand, 54%, unsure.
00:06:38.640 And even that after Mark Carney, you're pretty much just having people say,
00:06:42.540 I recognize that name and that's it. Even Chrystia Freeland, does anyone think
00:06:46.620 Chrystia Freeland's a good politician? She's just a managerial class elite who people,
00:06:54.920 I guess, are selecting in this poll because she's technically the deputy prime minister
00:06:58.120 and a lot of people know who she is. They don't have good things to say about her,
00:07:02.560 or there wouldn't be 54% of people unsure. Even Mark Carney, you're going to run a central bank
00:07:09.500 elite against pure Polyev at a time when the electorate is very populist right now.
00:07:15.120 The electorate is very anti-central bank. They're tired of central bank government solutions
00:07:22.600 to economic problems. Oh, we just need to lower the interest rates a little bit. Oh,
00:07:27.180 we just need this new stimulus package. Oh, we just need this targeted little tax cut or regulation
00:07:34.480 or whatever protectionist policy in place to protect this industry. That's not going to happen.
00:07:41.900 The tax burden is too high in this country. Across the board, every province, especially places like
00:07:47.680 British Columbia, there are places in Canada that if you start making over $100,000, the government
00:07:53.040 might as well just put you into the killing fields because they'll take everything you have.
00:07:57.580 They are taking more than half your income. If you have the audacity to be successful
00:08:02.220 and make $100,000 or more in a year. And most people will eventually make more than $100,000
00:08:09.280 a year, whether it's just a great year for income from having a lot of extra work to do,
00:08:14.800 or it's inheriting something. Everyone is eventually going to get smashed with the capital gains hammer
00:08:20.200 and the high income hammer that the liberals and their provincial government counterparts have.
00:08:24.920 The issue in Canada is that even in our most conservative province in Alberta, because of
00:08:31.160 federal tax rates, it is better to be taxed in New York than it is to be in Alberta. It's better to be
00:08:36.500 taxed in California, Oregon, New Mexico, Vermont, all these lefty states, Massachusetts, than being even
00:08:43.760 in Alberta. In Alberta, I believe your tax burden is still like 49% overall in the upper brackets when
00:08:50.040 you combine everything together. And that's not even including property tax, which might mean that
00:08:54.260 place like San Francisco and New York City would edge out places like Calgary in terms of how much
00:08:59.060 tax you pay. But as a general rule for income taxes, it's literally better to be in every single
00:09:04.680 state in the US and Alaska even, even up there where you'd assume that things would be quite a bit more
00:09:10.040 expensive and the income taxes would be pretty brutal. I guess they're not a high tax state,
00:09:14.500 but it's just an expensive state. But it's better to be in the states. I still want to be in Canada.
00:09:19.560 I want Canada to be better. I specifically only make Canadian content, because I don't want to go
00:09:24.860 chase a US audience over the border. And I'm not having an effect on the place I live. That's sad.
00:09:29.840 I don't like when people gain more than 50,000 subscribers on YouTube, or even sometimes just
00:09:34.560 10,000. And then they just start talking about the Trump-Kamala Harris race. It's like, who cares?
00:09:39.920 There's guys, there are better US commentators than you or I that are already covering that race.
00:09:45.740 They don't need us to say anything else. How about we fix this country? Then we talk about the US.
00:09:50.920 But regardless, moving on there. The liberals have nobody. The caucus, I feel like I'm doing a bit of
00:09:57.920 a Trump weave here. I've gone really far off of my topic, but I'm coming back. So the liberals have
00:10:04.480 no replacement. And in this caucus meeting, the problem they might have is if they don't finish
00:10:09.620 off Justin Trudeau, they might just guarantee the party's even in worse shape going into 2025.
00:10:15.380 With enough of a brand polishing, and I'm a conservative, I don't want these people to win.
00:10:20.660 They're awful. But just from the pragmatic perspective that if I was putting myself in
00:10:25.260 the boots of somebody inside the Liberal Party who wants them to win as many seats as possible,
00:10:30.060 having a caucus revolt against Trudeau that Trudeau survives might be worse than just getting rid of
00:10:35.200 him or not doing it at all. Because it's like you're basically wounding the you're wounding
00:10:40.660 your leader right before he goes into another fight. It's not a good look. And that might be
00:10:46.440 the difference between the liberals only getting 25 seats instead of holding on to maybe 50 or 60
00:10:51.780 seats, which is not unrealistic for the liberals to be able to still pull off. And again, barring there
00:10:57.760 could be a scandal for the conservatives coming out. That's not me predicting something. That's just me
00:11:02.480 saying in politics scandals happen. When you have a big enough caucus, when there's enough people
00:11:07.240 running around your party, someone's done something stupid. And so that might tighten things up. But if
00:11:12.300 Justin Trudeau is already having all these caucus revolts around him, he is not having a single person
00:11:17.120 feel confident in giving their vote to him. And a lot of the center left vote who's unwilling to go
00:11:22.700 conservative will then go block. He'll go NDP. He'll go green. They'll just go anywhere but liberal
00:11:28.080 because the liberals have just left people with a taste of apathy in their mouth at this point.
00:11:33.260 Who cares? Like that's the big thing in politics. You want people to be excited about what you're
00:11:38.260 doing, that they're not just voting against the other option. They genuinely also want to see you
00:11:43.320 in government. Right now, I think with much of the liberal base that's left, it's because it's not that
00:11:48.900 they don't want to see the liberals in government. They don't want to see the conservatives out of
00:11:53.940 government or not prevent it from going in. They just don't think much of the liberals at all.
00:11:58.400 It's like they don't even exactly hate them. It's just like the flavor option of bland.
00:12:06.120 They are a beige party at this point. Don't get me wrong. They're awful. They're managerial elites
00:12:11.500 who have ruined the economy through mass immigration, high taxes, high regulations, all this
00:12:16.680 other stuff, restrictions on resources. But on the top of it, they're boring. They're so boring.
00:12:22.200 Could you imagine having to sit at a dinner table with Chrystia Freeland or Anita Anand or
00:12:27.840 Sean Frazier trying to make conversation about politics? It wouldn't make it through the night.
00:12:34.220 You would crawl out of the bathroom window. You would make up an excuse to leave. They're just
00:12:39.700 boring. And that's just the managerial personality of them. They are very paperwork-based, wonky
00:12:46.400 politicians who think that the detail of the regulations that they put forward and the plans
00:12:50.700 make them good. I have a master's degree in public policy. And the main thing that that taught me
00:12:56.300 is I hate policy people. Not the people I studied with, obviously. I'm just talking about the mentality
00:13:01.420 of people who do policy. I hate the idea that people will say, you know, on page 86, that bill gets
00:13:07.840 good, which I've heard people say, oh, well, this section of the bill has a really good, they had a
00:13:13.480 really clear, you know, they were very precise in the wording of this regulation. I think this was
00:13:18.720 really good. It's like, oh my goodness, guys. If I hear that a regulation or some new bill is more
00:13:24.120 than five pages, I'm going to like bite somebody. Don't. Stop it. Just reduce the amount of paperwork
00:13:30.140 in government. Honestly, regulatory books, legislative, like the books, everything just
00:13:36.680 needs to be cleared out. Even if it's not hurting anybody, we just need a lot of regulations out
00:13:41.260 because it shouldn't be like 10 textbooks deep to understand all of the ins and outs of
00:13:46.700 agricultural policy and regulations. That's ridiculous. That's a way of making it so that
00:13:51.160 normal people can't understand it. And anyone could be charged with a crime at any chance or
00:13:55.940 any time or fine for something because obviously you can't follow that many minute details and
00:14:00.860 policies. It's stupid. Too many procedures, too many forms you have to fill out. Like, you know,
00:14:05.400 people always compare Canada under Trudeau at certain times to like 1984 or to like a brave new world or
00:14:12.220 whatever. It's the movie Brazil. Go look up the movie Brazil. It's the movie Brazil where it's
00:14:17.500 easier to just install a new duct in your house so they don't fix the old ones and everyone's homes
00:14:23.400 just become pipes everywhere because there's too many forms to fill out to get the actual old stuff
00:14:28.440 fixed. That's what Canada is all about. It's forms everywhere, constantly doing paperwork,
00:14:34.020 constantly paying somebody to not actually do their job, but at least keeps you off their back in
00:14:39.020 terms of all the taxes you pay to, you know, keep bureaucrats doing fake jobs. And so at this caucus
00:14:45.940 meeting, I don't even know what pitch Trudeau makes to keep people on side. Like, what have they done
00:14:52.080 that would make you feel like as a liberal MP, assuming for some reason that we're not anti-liberal?
00:14:58.160 I'm anti-liberal. This party sucks. I would never vote for them, never thought of voting for them.
00:15:02.960 But when you, if you're a liberal MP, what have they actually done in the past year that shows you
00:15:08.940 that they can learn? The liberal party's worst quality is they can't learn because all of these
00:15:13.480 people, and I'm just gonna use the word again, are annoying elites. They genuinely cannot comprehend
00:15:19.560 that they can ever be wrong. And so just checking their social media right now, it's still all about
00:15:25.300 Polyev. It's still just hitting them for climate. Oh my goodness. Who is this, who is this made for?
00:15:34.260 It reads, pure Polyev would cut your Canadian carbon rebates and roll back our progress. He doesn't have
00:15:40.040 a plan to fight climate change or grow the economy. It's from the Walrus, they're showing, they're sharing
00:15:45.280 this article from a left-wing rag magazine. The carbon tax is unpopular. Somebody in the, in the
00:15:52.940 liberal caucus meeting, I guarantee you, is going to have an aneurysm over this because goodness,
00:15:58.560 stop talking about the carbon tax. Even if you call it the carbon rebate, it's never coming back
00:16:03.520 in popularity. People want, and this is where I want to, almost want to go over this in an entire
00:16:08.240 video. There is a myth of a moderate voter. It's, it's a strategy firm created myth that there is a
00:16:16.660 moderate voter out there who wants you to talk about things in a mild way. We have, we're just putting
00:16:22.620 a price on pollution. We know that we need immigration for a strong, diverse, inclusive
00:16:28.440 economy. We need more blah, blah, blah. And it's like, that's not what a moderate voter is. There's
00:16:33.760 no such thing as a moderate voter because anyone who's willing to get off their couch and vote
00:16:37.540 is passionate. They are passionate at least about one thing or someone's bugging them to go vote
00:16:42.800 because, you know, their dad's telling them you better vote today or, you know, you're going to get
00:16:46.440 disowned, which I agree with them if they're telling you to vote conservative. You know, kidding.
00:16:51.200 Regardless. But the, but the thing, there is no such thing as a moderate voter. In, in British
00:16:58.620 Columbia right now, in the provincial election, and if any of you weasels haven't voted in the BC
00:17:02.340 election, you better go out there and vote if you live in BC and vote conservative. But in, in British
00:17:08.380 Columbia, a moderate voter in my mind, from my surveying of people, knocking on doors, talking to
00:17:15.060 thousands of people and whatnot, reading polls, all this stuff, a moderate voter in British Columbia,
00:17:20.560 and you can't get any more moderate than East Asian voters often. They vote, they tend to vote
00:17:24.660 generally where right, the right down the middle of public sentiment is. That's why they tend to
00:17:29.680 usually vote liberal because that's usually where generic public sentiment is in federal elections.
00:17:34.240 But this provincial election, they're mostly voting conservative. They might vote conservative by
00:17:38.660 more than 60%. And it's because they want tough on crime policies. They want drugs off the streets.
00:17:44.640 They hate SOG123. They want the healthcare system reformed. They want wasteful spending in government
00:17:49.980 cut. They sound very conservative because they're not actually moderate. It's just that the middle
00:17:54.140 of the road voter, the moderate voter is voting very conservative this election. That's what you
00:17:59.100 people have to understand. There's no such thing as this guy with mild opinions. And he just wants
00:18:03.760 Aaron O'Toole to whisper sweet nothings in his ear, promise him absolutely nothing, but he sounded
00:18:08.640 moderate and professional. And he comes off like you're like a very boring dad. That's not how
00:18:13.980 people vote. Passionate people vote. So find the things people are passionate about, and you might
00:18:19.180 make a passionate voter who will maybe turn out and vote for you. That's why I hate it whenever I see
00:18:23.760 nomination candidates running for the conservatives, and their website is, I'm against the carbon tax.
00:18:29.540 Cool. What else? When I ran for a federal nomination, and frankly, I would have won if they didn't kick
00:18:35.080 me out three weeks before the vote. Thanks, Jenny Byrne. But I had like 700 to like 1,100 supporters,
00:18:41.860 and it was going to be an easy win, at least in my opinion, or at least I had a very good chance to
00:18:46.080 run. I was running on stuff like reducing immigration by two thirds, because that's what
00:18:50.500 moderate people want. I'd have moderate people at the door, people who aren't very political,
00:18:55.060 they'd say, could you do more than two thirds as a reduction? I wanted to do a three to 5% reduction
00:19:00.840 across the board of income taxes, a 3% reduction in corporate income taxes, a reduction of like,
00:19:07.400 you know, one of those plans where every new regulation submitted, we have to get rid of three,
00:19:11.820 a lot of stuff like that. And that was very popular in my riding. Granted, more conservative
00:19:16.600 riding, but people actually want reform these days. Moderate voters are reform voters. And so that's what
00:19:24.220 the Liberals, this is a very long rabbit hole, are not getting with all of these types of posts.
00:19:30.680 Moderate voters are not climate voters. Again, they're trying to post stuff like this. Who is
00:19:37.180 this made for? I don't even know what this is. Let's just, I don't even know what this is. I'll
00:19:40.960 just let it play. The most irresponsible inflationary prime minister in Canadian history.
00:19:48.060 Consumer prices slowed to 2.7% year over year in June. Canada's annual inflation rate dropped to
00:19:54.040 its lowest point in more than three years. Good news today. Canada's inflation rate came in at
00:19:58.800 2% last month. Canada's inflation rate has fallen to 1.6%. That's not good. That's not even good.
00:20:08.060 We should have a negative 2% inflation rate because inflation rates stack morons. And that even that
00:20:15.700 one lady there, good news, Canada, our inflation rate is down, but it's still increasing. And it's
00:20:21.720 increasing on top of years where we had 7% and 9% inflation. 2.7% inflation and even 1.6% inflation
00:20:29.340 is awful. That's a terrible record because we already have high prices and they're still going up,
00:20:35.780 which means inflation probably is not going to catch up. Our actual spending power is not going to
00:20:41.220 catch up for a long time. This doesn't appeal to anybody. I'm just going to keep going through
00:20:47.540 this. Sorry if this is a long show, but I know some people like it when it's a bit more. Oh my
00:20:51.820 goodness, this one, this one, this is the dumbest talking point I've seen from them recently.
00:20:57.460 Our liberal housing plan will deliver nearly 4 million new homes, new protections for renters,
00:21:03.160 more support for first-time buyers. Pierre Polio doesn't have a plan to solve the housing crisis.
00:21:07.920 You guys have been in power for nine years. Nine years, I'm just pointing it out, not to be
00:21:13.280 a stickler about that, but you guys have kind of been in power for nine years. And then suddenly
00:21:18.260 they're still acting like they're the opposition saying, our plan will propose to build 4 million
00:21:23.820 new homes, which the conservative MP for Halderman at Norfolk, Leslyn Lewis, pointed out is a completely
00:21:31.740 ridiculous promise because you would have to be finishing a house at every three and a half minutes
00:21:37.600 or I think it was like three minutes and 10 seconds in order to fulfill that plan. And at
00:21:42.080 one point she asked saying, okay, this meeting's gone on for 30 minutes here. Have you guys built
00:21:46.660 nine and a half houses yet? Because that's obviously something they can't do. And then
00:21:51.940 they have the other ones, more protections for renters. Do you know what this is? It is allowing
00:21:56.340 the government to fund the legal battles of anybody who is claiming to be a renter, which is what
00:22:02.100 caused the squatting epidemic in places like California, where someone can just go create
00:22:07.900 some fake rental agreement, break into your house, and then have the government defend them when you
00:22:12.940 try and get them evicted. It's a lot of these stupid protections where because things are
00:22:17.680 unaffordable, they're going to make it so that you can't basically ever have your rent raised. You
00:22:22.960 cannot be kicked out without like six months notice and all this other garbage. What was the last one
00:22:27.820 there? More support for first-time homebuyers. Wow, inflation. Inflation. We're going to give a bunch
00:22:33.100 of people money to go buy a house. It's subsidizing demand, which means that prices will simply go up
00:22:39.380 because also taxes are going to have to be raised to either pay for this or we're going to have to
00:22:43.780 print more money. Oh my goodness. Oh, this is the dumbest lie I've ever seen. I actually probably
00:22:53.960 can't play this with sound just because it's one of these videos where they use
00:22:57.640 public domain music, but like how it started here. Our Canada Child Benefit will give families
00:23:06.840 more at the high cost of raising their kids and will deliver extra support to those who need it most,
00:23:14.200 single-parent families and low-income families.
00:23:17.540 Since 2016, 650,000 kids have been lifted out of poverty.
00:23:29.220 Wow, the child poverty rate's been cut by more than half. Why are there record rates of people
00:23:34.900 using food banks? Is it just single people who are using food banks on all the kids are fine?
00:23:39.700 Obviously, that's not true. We use cooked metrics to make it seem like something's better
00:23:44.740 because we started studying child poverty based on how many kids under a certain age have iPhones.
00:23:50.340 Oh, iPhones are cheaper so more kids have them? Well, child poverty done. Oh, more kids can access
00:23:55.940 a school lunch program? Well, that means child poverty's over. Okay, but back 10 years ago,
00:24:02.580 before you guys cut the child poverty rate in half, were parents more easily able to afford to give their
00:24:07.940 kids a school lunch themselves? Yes. Oh, but the kids were poorer back then because now we give them
00:24:14.100 bananas at school. So dumb. I want the Liberals to lose, but not like this. This is just sad. These
00:24:23.380 people need to fire their comms department and fire Justin Trudeau as well. And again, like I said in my
00:24:28.420 last video about stuff like this, I want the Conservatives to actually have a tough fight in 2025 because they
00:24:32.740 need to beat a Liberal, not just run against a pathetic Liberal who lets them win. I hope that
00:24:37.860 the Liberals actually put their best foot forward because I think the Conservatives need a better
00:24:42.340 challenge than this. This is pathetic. Everything is just assuming that they're going to attack
00:24:47.460 Polyev and people are going to be like, oh wait, Trudeau doesn't suck because the Liberals said Polyev
00:24:52.100 sucks. That's not how it works. Anyways, and also Polyev is the most popular person currently running to be
00:24:58.580 the next Prime Minister. He actually has good plans that people agree with about cutting wasteful
00:25:03.300 spending, lowering taxes, getting rid of unnecessary taxes like the carbon tax, you know, cracking down
00:25:08.580 on crime. It's all basic common sense stuff. And I'm not just using that common sense thing as a slogan,
00:25:13.620 but it's like, if crime's high, maybe we should punish repeat offenders harder. Maybe we should have
00:25:18.420 more police on the streets, you know. Maybe we should stop sponsoring safe supply programs and
00:25:23.700 decriminalization of drug programs in places like Toronto and British Columbia.
00:25:27.860 Maybe that's a thought. Anyways, that's it for me today, guys. Sorry for the longer-ish video if
00:25:34.260 you like them to be a little bit tighter. You know, you're welcome if you like them being longer.
00:25:38.660 And if you want to support the show, go and donate to the Give, Send, Go I have in
00:25:43.140 the description of this video as well as pinned at the top of the comments. It's for our legal fund.
00:25:48.100 Anything really helps us out. I've paid more than $33,000 defending us in this frivolous
00:25:52.980 defamation case. And so if you can't do anything like that, you know, hyper understandable. Economy
00:25:59.700 sucks. All that stuff. At least make sure you like this video. Subscribe if you haven't because more
00:26:04.020 than 75% of people watching the videos usually are not subscribers. And then share it with a friend if
00:26:09.860 you want other people to watch this show because hopefully you find this informative. Or at least if
00:26:14.500 you don't learn anything, it helps you organize your own thoughts because that's honestly what I always
00:26:18.900 like about other people's podcasts that is never usually shocking information. I just like the
00:26:23.780 way that they phrase it because it helps me phrase things better whenever I'm telling people about
00:26:28.500 politics or I'm campaigning. Anyways, that's it for me today, guys. Have a good one.
