Hey guys, far be it from me to tell the Liberal Party's comms team how to do their jobs,
00:00:06.420
but man, this really ain't it, Chief. The Liberals are trying to, like, manipulate Canadians into
00:00:12.380
anger over pretty much the dumbest things they could possibly choose. Like, I know that they
00:00:17.780
know that they have a super progressive base, but they've somehow tricked themselves into thinking
00:00:23.000
that all other Canadians are obnoxious hyper-progressives who demand that companies
00:00:28.660
change their logo colors during the month of June. But this is what the Liberals just posted on their
00:00:34.320
own ex-account trying to attack Pierre Polyev. It's this graphic right here. I'll actually pull it up
00:00:39.660
on screen so it's a little bit bigger. But they're trying to shame Federal Conservative Party leader
00:00:44.440
Pierre Polyev for not showing up to a Pride Progress flag raising. Yes, this is something we deeply need
00:00:51.320
to care about. The graphic reads, hiding from this year's Pride flag raising ceremony, Pierre Polyev.
00:00:57.380
Guys, who cares? And over top of this post, they write in the header, it's because he couldn't wear a
00:01:05.180
straight Pride shirt. Oh, man. Oh, man. Got him. Oh, man. They just got Pierre Polyev with that one,
00:01:12.800
as if anyone cares at all. Like, the Liberals posting their new logo change. Like, they've changed their
00:01:19.720
logos in the past, but they've never had to post, like, oh, these are the new colors of it. But
00:01:24.040
they virtue signal so hard in the month of June, they are making Canadians hate the month of June.
00:01:32.240
I can guarantee you, because in my social circles and my social circles, I'm being very broad. I'm
00:01:37.740
just talking about anybody I know, whether or not we agree on politics, people are sick of Pride Month
00:01:43.520
because it just becomes political nonsense the entire time. And really, we also just need fewer
00:01:49.960
holidays in general. Our politicians already don't work that hard, and it would be great if we removed
00:01:55.780
more days from the calendar that take them out of their office towards some random ceremony event
00:02:01.460
that they don't need to be present for. I think Mr. Dufresne, the Conservative Party leader in Quebec,
00:02:07.740
an openly gay man who is the leader of his own party, a Conservative Party with a strong social
00:02:13.340
conservative base. He came out and said, guess what? I also didn't go to the pride flag raising
00:02:18.580
ceremony in my area because I don't care. This doesn't need to be a holiday, so why are we
00:02:24.900
celebrating it that way? And people will then try and respond and say, oh, what are you, homophobic
00:02:29.760
or something? What are you, not like trans people or something? What are you guys talking about? No,
00:02:34.940
people just don't need to care that much, because it's probably good for society to not care
00:02:39.760
this much about random, like, symbolic holidays like this. People should just go and live their
00:02:46.260
lives. We are in a free country last time I checked, and so the fact that you're then trying
00:02:51.860
to shame your federal opposition leader, your federal opposition leader who, by the way, is ahead
00:02:57.620
of you by 20 points in the polls, you're trying to shame him for not coming to a pride flag raising
00:03:02.880
is just a massive own goal. And this is why I've been saying for probably close to a year now,
00:03:08.440
I think that the Liberal Party's comms team are ripping them off. As much as Justin Trudeau
00:03:14.140
and Chrystia Freeland and the Liberal Party steals money from Canadians every single day,
00:03:19.440
even I'm upset on behalf of Justin Trudeau, because every single day his comms team wakes up
00:03:25.300
and makes sure to steal as much of the Liberal Party's money as possible, because none of this
00:03:30.600
plays well. This looks like whining, obnoxious, woke-skulled behavior that Canadians are completely
00:03:37.620
done with. Pure Polly not showing up is probably a good move. Think about it. The Pride Parade
00:03:42.500
in both Calgary, Edmonton, or just all over Alberta banned UCP Alberta Premier Daniel Smith from
00:03:49.400
attending. Why should any conservative politicians show up to these events when they're so overtly
00:03:54.160
structured against conservatives? And they don't have to be. What are conservatives doing that are
00:03:58.680
hurting any of these people? And when I say any of these people, I really just mean leftists,
00:04:02.600
because the idea that somehow gay people then have to support every single gay event
00:04:07.480
is quite insulting. There's tons of people I know who are gay who don't actually like any of this
00:04:12.280
stuff because it becomes very gratuitous and virtue-signally. But any of these people,
00:04:17.080
how are the conservatives coming after you? They're not. They're not. But the thing is that
00:04:21.280
the Liberals and the NDP are super far down in the polls these days. So every single one of these events
00:04:26.740
has been rolled out into a political campaign. If anything, some of these organizations should
00:04:32.600
investigated for acting as in-kind third-party advertisers for the Liberals and the NDP,
00:04:38.200
because the entire structure of the campaign is to promote Liberal and NDP party priorities,
00:04:43.760
their politicians, and try and entrap conservatives into basically not living up to their standards
00:04:49.500
and then being called some sort of a bigot. And the idea that they're bringing up the straight
00:04:53.760
pride shirt photo, guys, who cares? Pierre Polyev takes photos with thousands of people who show up to
00:05:00.460
his events. If 500 people get into the lineup to take a photo with him, he takes a photo with them.
00:05:06.080
And so the fact that we still have to be mad almost more than a year later because Polyev took a photo
00:05:12.580
with a guy wearing a shirt that said straight pride on it is patently absurd. Anyone who is still mad about
00:05:19.360
that was going to be mad about it whether it was proven to be fake or not. There are so many things
00:05:24.740
that happen where I could tell. If I just made up a story about Polyev, I could get all these leftist
00:05:30.100
accounts on social media sharing it all day long. Even if it was then exposed to be a lie, they would
00:05:35.300
say, well, there is still a hint of truth to it. It's still pointed to a deeper truth. Because these
00:05:40.920
sorts of people on the left, not just people who vote left, most people just vote the way they do
00:05:45.980
because of their own personal priorities. Most people vote for good reason. Not that I agree
00:05:51.920
with who they vote for, but they vote based on the priorities that are currently taking place or
00:05:56.720
currently, you know, they have based on the circumstance of their lives. But these true
00:06:01.360
leftists who this stuff appeals to, they are people who they don't believe in democracy unless
00:06:08.200
they win. That's why they are just whining harder and harder the more that pure Polyev climbs up in
00:06:14.120
the polls, not trying to fix the issues in their government, not trying to fix their messaging.
00:06:17.960
It has just become more aggressive whining because they believe that it's unfair that the
00:06:22.580
conservatives and pure Polyev are doing well in the polls because it's only democracy unless they
00:06:27.760
win. This is why in Westlock, the small town out there in Alberta, why I say out there in Alberta,
00:06:33.400
that was very strange in general. But the small town of Westlock in Alberta, there's like LGBTQ
00:06:38.720
activist groups now attacking that town because they voted to not have pride flags flying
00:06:43.980
at all times. 24-7, 365, they thought that was becoming inappropriate after a while because
00:06:49.620
that's not representative of the town of Westlock because turns out the most representative thing
00:06:54.320
of the town is the town's flag. And so the flagpoles shouldn't be reserved for political flags flying
00:07:00.360
all year round. And because the citizens of Westlock in a plebiscite voted in order to just put back up
00:07:06.380
the normal flags and stop having political flags flying all the time, they then attacked that town by
00:07:11.580
shipping in as many pride signs as humanly possible to punish them for not liking their agenda enough.
00:07:17.540
Again, it's not because they don't like gay people or they don't like trans people or anything.
00:07:21.940
No, they don't like left-wing messaging because there are tons of gay people celebrating the plebiscite
00:07:26.700
result saying that, yes, these things shouldn't be flying all the time. We shouldn't be flying flags
00:07:31.260
for religions, for political movements, for anything about identity. It should be about the place
00:07:36.660
itself and that is it. Anyways, that should be it for me today, guys. Just want to quickly plug the
00:07:42.820
fact that I, Wyatt Claypool, am running for the Calgary-Signal Hill Conservative Party nomination.
00:07:48.680
So if you're a member in this riding, there's about 4,800 of you, please vote for me number one on your
00:07:53.600
ballot if you're on the Westside Calgary and Signal Hill area. And then you can also donate to my legal
00:07:58.760
defense fund if you guys want. The Give, Send, Go link in the description of this video below.
00:08:03.440
Anything you can contribute really helps us out. We have this Chinese billionaire developer suing
00:08:08.180
us for pretty much nothing. He hasn't even been able to prove any defamation in over two and a half
00:08:13.840
years of this lawsuit going on. He just simply says we've done bad things and then throws paperwork at
00:08:19.600
us. So it's cost us more than $29,000. So anything you can contribute does help us out a lot.
00:08:25.760
Anyways, that should be it for me today, guys. Have a good one.
