The National Telegraph - Wyatt Claypool - Why Conservatives let the Liberal budget pass？!？

00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here.

00:00:02.620 In this video today, I want to talk about the political strategy of Pierre Polyev and the Federal Conservative Party

00:00:10.420 when it comes to Mark Carney's liberal budget.

00:00:13.840 Because the Conservatives and the NDP both effectively allow the Liberals to pass their budget,

00:00:20.660 and it has upset a lot of people online who think that this is somehow a betrayal of Canadians.

00:00:27.400 Why would they let this Liberal government go any longer when they could have technically defeated this budget and gone into another election? 1.00

00:00:36.420 I'm going to tell you guys right away, that's stupid. 0.99

00:00:39.700 You do not want to be the opposition that forces Canadians into a Christmas election. 0.99

00:00:45.880 I know a lot of people are putting attention on Shannon Stubbs,

00:00:49.740 who is one of the two Conservative MPs who didn't end up voting on the budget.

00:00:54.020 People don't care as much about Matt Gennaro because he hasn't been around Parliament for weeks,

00:00:58.880 and he's the guy who's planning on resigning in the spring.

00:01:01.580 But people have been putting a lot of negative attention on Shannon Stubbs.

00:01:05.440 I know there's a story about how she just got a surgery, and that's why she couldn't vote, 0.98

00:01:09.820 and people are saying, well, that shouldn't matter, or even if that's true, she should vote anyways.

00:01:13.800 My position here is none of that matters.

00:01:17.780 It doesn't matter.

00:01:19.060 Sorry, you on the Conservatives to look like the Grinch Party by ruining people's Christmas holidays

00:01:25.520 by plunging the country into an election when in many parts of the country it's going to be snowing

00:01:31.800 and it's not going to be great for grassroots campaigning at the doors. 0.99

00:01:35.760 Obviously, that's really dumb. 0.95

00:01:38.340 What we need is we need to let the Liberals have a little bit more rope to hang themselves with, 0.98

00:01:43.360 and then you end up calling an election.

00:01:45.720 I do want to get into some stuff around the details of this passing and why it's bad for the Liberals

00:01:51.140 because they literally had to team up with Elizabeth May to pass this thing.

00:01:55.080 They could have passed it technically without her,

00:01:57.160 but it's very clear that they courted her vote in order to get this thing passed 0.98

00:02:01.300 because they obviously would look stupid if they intentionally lost the vote. 0.97

00:02:05.820 The Liberals can't trigger the election themselves, or they're the people plunging us into a Christmas election, 0.99

00:02:11.240 but they bent over backwards for Elizabeth May, which makes them look really radical,

00:02:16.240 and as we have negative effects coming out of this budget into the future,

00:02:19.660 it's going to be a more opportune time to call an election.

00:02:23.280 But I like to think about politics from a military perspective.

00:02:28.000 If you hang out with me in public, or sorry, not public, I guess in public,

00:02:32.080 but in person, especially behind the scenes in politics,

00:02:34.840 I talk about politics like it's a war going on,

00:02:38.940 not in terms of we've got to fight the enemy,

00:02:41.140 we've got to meet them on the battlefield and spill their blood.

00:02:44.360 I mean in terms of like you never charge up a hill at an entrenched enemy.

00:02:51.020 You don't have your troops run up a hill towards people

00:02:55.020 who all they have to do is sit there and fire back down at you.

00:02:57.860 That is what would have happened.

00:02:59.460 That's basically the metaphorical scenario of the NDP, the conservatives, and the bloc

00:03:04.620 defeating this budget and going into another election.

00:03:09.420 If you're the conservatives, you want to have a more even ground to fight the liberals on.

00:03:14.440 You want them to have to charge up a mountain at you,

00:03:17.100 or you want to be able to charge down a hill at them in the valley.

00:03:20.260 And that's what it would be if the liberals have a terrible economic update, 0.99

00:03:24.500 they break another promise, a corruption scandal comes out,

00:03:27.360 and then you call an election. 0.99

00:03:29.460 Right now, not enough Canadians are paying attention to know the budget sucks. 1.00

00:03:33.760 Does the budget suck? 0.99

00:03:35.060 Yes, but perception is reality for so many people, 0.96

00:03:38.060 and they don't perceive the budget as being so bad.

00:03:41.860 Now, the polling on the budget is not very good.

00:03:44.420 A lot of people are wary of it,

00:03:46.160 but it's going to take a while for those kind of feelings of apprehension

00:03:49.880 to turn into I'm not going to vote for the liberals again.

00:03:53.580 People being a little apprehensive right now,

00:03:55.820 and then putting them into a Christmas election,

00:03:58.040 it's just going to mean that they still are more annoyed with whoever called the election

00:04:01.740 than those who put up the shaky-looking budget.

00:04:05.220 Now, the budget's more than shaky.

00:04:07.000 It's terrible.

00:04:08.220 But again, most people aren't going to have digested that right away.

00:04:12.460 And so I can even show you this poll.

00:04:14.680 There are as good indicators that this budget is not going to be helping the liberals at all.

00:04:22.100 We have this poll out from Angus, sorry, not Angus Reid,

00:04:25.920 Abacus Data that asks,

00:04:27.300 Does the budget make you more or less confident that the federal government has a clear plan

00:04:31.860 to grow the economy and make life more affordable and protect people from uncertainty?

00:04:36.620 I am more confident than before only scores at 16%.

00:04:40.560 39% say less confident.

00:04:43.080 26% say I'm as confident as I was before.

00:04:47.020 Now, yeah, if you add as I'm as confident as I was before,

00:04:51.440 and I'm more confident, that's not too bad.

00:04:54.240 But you never know if the confident as I was before line

00:04:58.680 could be people who already thought it was terrible

00:05:00.980 or already thought it was going to be good.

00:05:03.100 And then there is a decent amount of I don't knows.

00:05:05.940 And then when we actually look at the chart on where people are less confident,

00:05:10.880 obviously Alberta is disproportionately high,

00:05:13.900 but BC is quite high.

00:05:15.800 Atlantic Canada is quite high.

00:05:18.460 We have Ontario, 38% people think don't like it,

00:05:22.280 and only 17% do.

00:05:24.600 So this is one of those, like one of those budgets,

00:05:27.900 where it's going to start off at this kind of divisive thing,

00:05:31.500 and it's probably going to become less popular over time,

00:05:34.060 as it's not actually delivering the benefits that the liberals promise.

00:05:39.280 But again, we have to go back to the idea

00:05:42.040 that the liberals ended up having to court Elizabeth May's vote

00:05:45.520 to pass this thing.

00:05:46.800 This is going to hurt them in the future,

00:05:48.600 because they actually can be slapped as being a very radical government,

00:05:55.400 a government who paired up with the most radical member of parliament

00:05:58.680 in order to get their budget across the finish line.

00:06:01.060 Thank you.

00:06:01.940 My question is for the Prime Minister.

00:06:05.900 Does the Prime Minister agree that it is a deficiency in the budget,

00:06:09.520 that our legally binding Paris commitments are not mentioned?

00:06:13.940 Can he confirm here on the floor of this House

00:06:18.160 that in passing this budget,

00:06:20.500 the government is committed to holding to as far below two degrees as possible,

00:06:25.380 to funding climate adaptation,

00:06:27.640 to delivering on the nature strategy,

00:06:30.920 and continuing to engage in meaningful Indigenous reconciliation?

00:06:37.360 Mr. Speaker, I'd like to thank the Honourable Member

00:06:39.840 for advocacy of the Youth Climate Corps,

00:06:42.780 which is in this budget,

00:06:44.720 and which this House can vote for.

00:06:46.520 Vote for the future of this country.

00:06:48.800 Mr. Speaker, this budget puts us on the path

00:06:51.680 for real results for climate, for nature, for reconciliation.

00:06:54.380 I can confirm to this House

00:06:55.980 that we will respect our Paris commitments for climate change,

00:07:00.380 and we're determined to achieve them.

00:07:01.760 I can confirm with this House

00:07:03.760 that consistent with our Kunming-Montreal commitments,

00:07:06.740 the nature strategy will release in the coming weeks.

00:07:09.780 We will build this country strong, sustainable,

00:07:12.740 and pure for future generations.

00:07:15.620 And this is the Green Party celebrating it.

00:07:18.020 I'm using the Green Party's own clipping of it.

00:07:20.660 The Greens took this as the win, as a win for them.

00:07:24.980 Even though technically Carney didn't need her vote,

00:07:27.380 although he probably in his mind believed

00:07:29.200 that he did need her vote,

00:07:30.980 because they thought they needed the vote,

00:07:33.000 they ended up basically re-embracing

00:07:35.200 every bad Trudeau-era Green policy,

00:07:38.840 and they promised to not get rid of any of them. 0.99

00:07:41.920 That's pathetic. 0.98

00:07:43.540 Do you think that these people are actually 0.99

00:07:44.900 going to be building a pipeline

00:07:46.100 when they just bear-hugged Elizabeth May

00:07:48.240 to get their budget passed?

00:07:49.500 This is something in the future

00:07:51.440 that's going to be hurting the Liberals quite a bit.

00:07:54.220 And I want to jump over now

00:07:56.000 to Pierre Polyev and the Conservatives

00:08:00.080 reacting to the budget,

00:08:02.060 because again, although they didn't trigger an election,

00:08:05.600 it's not hypocritical for them to condemn the budget

00:08:07.680 even though they let it get passed.

00:08:09.660 You kind of have to let it go.

00:08:11.440 You have to let them have their day

00:08:13.240 rather than getting in their way constantly

00:08:15.420 and then calling an election.

00:08:17.420 At some point, you're just going to look like a pest

00:08:19.460 if you don't let the government operate at all.

00:08:21.960 So here is Pierre Polyev's reaction

00:08:24.400 after the budget passed yesterday.

00:08:26.360 Mark Carney's budget will drive up the cost of living

00:08:28.800 on everyday Canadians,

00:08:30.500 on food, on homes,

00:08:32.000 and on everything else Canadians buy.

00:08:34.080 Conservatives demanded an affordable budget

00:08:35.900 for an affordable life.

00:08:37.040 On behalf of the Canadians

00:08:38.740 that Liberals have priced out of food,

00:08:41.400 homes, and life,

00:08:42.100 Conservatives voted no tonight

00:08:44.240 on this costly credit card budget

00:08:45.800 that gambles away Canadians' futures.

00:08:48.500 And actually, I do like the term

00:08:49.720 credit card budget that they've been using.

00:08:51.680 I think it's decently effective.

00:08:53.400 But again, I think that was a fine thing

00:08:55.680 for the Conservatives to do.

00:08:57.700 There's so many people

00:08:58.840 making a lot out of the gamesmanship

00:09:01.480 that was going on around this vote. 0.98

00:09:03.080 This one guy whose name is Millennial Moron 0.86

00:09:05.320 says, but this is something many people repeated.

00:09:08.300 If you need more evidence

00:09:09.240 that the budget vote was pure theatrics,

00:09:11.640 Reid and Scheer rushed in to vote no

00:09:14.280 after supposedly experiencing technical problems,

00:09:17.200 but you're not allowed to enter or leave

00:09:19.000 once a vote has started.

00:09:20.320 You can see them hiding behind the curtain

00:09:22.120 during the vote.

00:09:23.920 Okay.

00:09:25.040 Is that true?

00:09:26.480 I've heard that might be true,

00:09:27.640 that basically Scott Reid and Andrew Scheer

00:09:30.320 basically stayed behind

00:09:32.200 and they pretended they had technical difficulties

00:09:34.440 online voting.

00:09:35.380 And then they rushed in to go and vote no

00:09:37.760 once it was clear that the budget would pass.

00:09:40.260 I don't care.

00:09:41.480 It's smart politics, guys.

00:09:43.460 I know a lot of people,

00:09:44.480 this is kind of like

00:09:45.780 how the sausage is made type stuff

00:09:47.580 that people don't like to see.

00:09:49.200 Oh, well, it seems like our Conservative MPs,

00:09:51.180 our Conservative Party is less brave.

00:09:53.500 Why aren't they always fighting the Liberals

00:09:55.620 and wanting an election?

00:09:56.920 Because they don't want the Liberals

00:09:58.660 to win an election.

00:09:59.720 So sometimes giving them

00:10:00.900 four or five more months in office

00:10:02.760 is going to make it more likely

00:10:04.300 that they're actually going to beat them

00:10:05.900 than not.

00:10:07.340 But now I just,

00:10:08.800 I want to move over

00:10:09.720 to another post here

00:10:11.480 about from,

00:10:13.900 actually I was just responding

00:10:15.000 to somebody

00:10:15.660 that I know

00:10:16.660 and probably all you know

00:10:17.680 because I thought it was just

00:10:18.520 a really good post

00:10:19.780 to give a bit of a,

00:10:21.560 I don't know,

00:10:21.960 response to

00:10:22.800 in terms of

00:10:24.060 what this all means.

00:10:25.600 Because I know

00:10:26.200 Mr. Sunshine Baby

00:10:27.140 has been very, very upset

00:10:28.360 with the Conservatives

00:10:29.180 in the aftermath

00:10:30.080 of all this.

00:10:31.580 I will read his post

00:10:32.800 and then I will read my post.

00:10:34.480 I'm not trying to go after him

00:10:35.640 in any way.

00:10:36.300 I respect his opinions.

00:10:37.620 I've agreed with him at times.

00:10:38.760 I disagree with him at times

00:10:40.060 like now.

00:10:41.020 But I thought that he had

00:10:42.320 maybe the most

00:10:43.380 honest take

00:10:44.800 from somebody

00:10:45.680 who didn't like

00:10:46.500 what the Conservatives did

00:10:47.440 because some people

00:10:48.080 said,

00:10:48.620 oh, you know, 0.85

00:10:49.360 they're traitors 0.85

00:10:50.260 or something like that

00:10:51.160 because two of their MPs

00:10:52.780 abstained from the vote.

00:10:54.320 And where I think

00:10:55.240 that he ended up

00:10:55.920 laying out more

00:10:56.660 of a real case

00:10:57.600 rather than just making that

00:10:58.940 like very shallow

00:11:00.100 that very shallow criticism.

00:11:03.360 But Jasper,

00:11:04.520 Mr. Sunshine Baby

00:11:05.320 says,

00:11:06.040 what an evening,

00:11:06.740 what a vote.

00:11:07.580 What a roller coaster

00:11:08.400 of emotions.

00:11:09.180 Here are my thoughts.

00:11:10.500 Conservative influencers

00:11:11.480 say that the media

00:11:12.360 and liberals

00:11:12.820 are afraid of Pierre Polyev.

00:11:14.640 Apparently,

00:11:15.180 they're scared,

00:11:15.940 petrified,

00:11:16.540 terrified.

00:11:17.400 If that was true,

00:11:18.580 why not call an election?

00:11:20.040 If everyone is that scared

00:11:21.500 of Pierre Polyev,

00:11:22.620 then we should be comfortable

00:11:23.980 calling an election.

00:11:25.100 However,

00:11:25.600 we all know

00:11:26.260 that Pierre is weak.

00:11:27.240 Pierre does not stand

00:11:27.980 on conservative values

00:11:28.980 because Jenny Byrne et al 0.81

00:11:30.620 have destroyed the party

00:11:31.780 from the top down

00:11:32.540 since Mark Prarney

00:11:33.360 became liberal leader.

00:11:35.340 We know we'll lose.

00:11:36.820 That's why two CPC MPs

00:11:38.380 decided to abstain

00:11:39.280 from opposing the budget,

00:11:41.140 even though the CPC

00:11:42.100 is literally called

00:11:42.980 the official opposition.

00:11:44.760 There is no excuse.

00:11:46.140 The expression goes,

00:11:47.280 silence his agreement.

00:11:48.560 Pierre Polyev has lost

00:11:49.520 control of his caucus.

00:11:50.560 He allowed red Tories 0.93

00:11:51.320 to hold places in the caucus.

00:11:53.140 And that caused him

00:11:54.240 to lose one of his MPs

00:11:55.840 a few weeks ago.

00:11:56.880 Chris Dantremont,

00:11:57.960 then Matt Genereau

00:11:58.760 was under heavy fire

00:11:59.920 for floor-crossing rumors

00:12:01.680 and suddenly declares

00:12:02.940 he had to leave politics

00:12:04.100 due to family concerns.

00:12:05.440 But he said he'd remain

00:12:06.600 a CPC MP till the spring.

00:12:08.460 We all know this is BS.

00:12:09.760 He hasn't shown up

00:12:10.520 for a vote

00:12:10.960 in the past three weeks.

00:12:13.900 What does it mean

00:12:14.580 to be a conservative?

00:12:15.780 What do we stand for?

00:12:17.080 Voters do not see

00:12:17.860 a difference between

00:12:18.620 Pierre Polyev and Mark Carney

00:12:19.840 because when looking

00:12:21.000 at them on paper

00:12:21.960 and their promises

00:12:22.860 on paper,

00:12:23.720 there are so few.

00:12:24.580 That's why Carney

00:12:25.600 is currently succeeding

00:12:26.420 while Polyev or Pierre

00:12:27.700 is not.

00:12:28.420 And we have to be honest

00:12:29.500 with ourselves

00:12:30.040 and critically see this.

00:12:31.400 It's time we realize

00:12:32.120 that either Polyev is the best

00:12:33.380 and the media is terrified

00:12:34.540 of him,

00:12:35.100 hence we should call an election,

00:12:36.280 or Pierre is not

00:12:37.540 who we thought he was

00:12:38.420 and he can't win with him,

00:12:39.760 which is why we don't

00:12:40.660 want an election now,

00:12:41.900 hence we need change.

00:12:44.660 Now, I'm just going to like,

00:12:46.780 I'm just going to end it there

00:12:47.880 and just go over

00:12:48.440 to my response

00:12:49.280 because I think

00:12:50.380 there were some aspects

00:12:51.800 of Jasper's post

00:12:54.260 that I found dishonest,

00:12:55.860 especially when he sets up

00:12:57.440 the binary

00:12:58.320 that either the media

00:13:00.000 and the liberals

00:13:00.520 are terrified of Polyev 0.99

00:13:01.580 and we need an election,

00:13:02.720 or he's too weak.

00:13:05.180 Okay, no,

00:13:06.220 that's just not true at all.

00:13:08.400 Here's the thing

00:13:09.120 with politics

00:13:10.720 is that timing

00:13:12.380 really does matter.

00:13:13.920 And I've talked a lot

00:13:14.700 about this in the video

00:13:15.920 up to this point already. 0.96

00:13:17.460 It would have been foolish 0.94

00:13:18.380 for the conservatives 0.79

00:13:19.080 to have a Christmas election.

00:13:21.400 You would have looked

00:13:21.960 like the bad guys.

00:13:23.300 It's the winter,

00:13:24.580 you know,

00:13:25.020 it's winter weather in Canada,

00:13:26.380 even though it's technically

00:13:27.060 not officially winter yet.

00:13:28.340 But, you know,

00:13:28.720 it's the winter.

00:13:29.780 People do not want

00:13:31.080 to be having people

00:13:32.680 at their doors campaigning

00:13:33.860 when it's negative 10 outside.

00:13:36.120 It's just smart

00:13:36.900 to not have the election

00:13:38.000 at that time.

00:13:39.300 I agree.

00:13:40.080 I actually do find it

00:13:41.060 kind of obnoxious

00:13:41.880 when influencers

00:13:42.840 do this thing about,

00:13:44.040 oh, the liberals

00:13:44.560 are terrified of Polyev.

00:13:45.820 They're absolutely

00:13:47.140 like beside themselves,

00:13:48.880 clutching themselves

00:13:49.760 in fear

00:13:50.540 because Polyev

00:13:51.800 is around the corner.

00:13:53.080 No, I don't think

00:13:54.060 the media or the liberals

00:13:54.840 are scared of Polyev.

00:13:56.080 I don't think the conservatives

00:13:57.000 are scared of Mark Carney.

00:13:58.420 In fact,

00:13:59.160 most people in politics

00:14:00.060 tend to have

00:14:00.640 a healthy respect

00:14:01.440 for their opponent's

00:14:02.740 ability to hit hard.

00:14:04.180 And I think that

00:14:04.740 both of them know

00:14:05.600 if an election was called,

00:14:06.740 even if it was

00:14:07.280 a bad Christmas election,

00:14:09.060 conservatives could

00:14:09.640 conceivably still win.

00:14:11.120 It's just not

00:14:11.520 a very good chance.

00:14:12.820 And the liberals

00:14:13.360 would rather have had

00:14:14.120 the Christmas election

00:14:14.840 because they believe

00:14:15.540 that Polyev and the conservatives

00:14:17.020 and the NDP

00:14:18.200 are going to have

00:14:18.740 a much better time

00:14:19.560 picking up seats

00:14:20.280 in a spring or summer election.

00:14:21.980 If anything,

00:14:22.560 Carney was probably hoping

00:14:23.560 that this thing

00:14:24.620 wouldn't pass.

00:14:26.300 But I just quickly

00:14:27.080 want to read my post here

00:14:28.280 and that will probably

00:14:28.900 be it for this video.

00:14:30.860 But I said,

00:14:31.680 two things can be true

00:14:32.540 at once.

00:14:33.460 One, those claiming

00:14:34.320 the media and liberals

00:14:35.020 are scared of Polyev 0.99

00:14:36.060 are being silly. 0.98

00:14:36.980 Both liberals and conservatives 0.98

00:14:37.980 could win the next election

00:14:39.100 whenever it is.

00:14:40.060 And each side

00:14:40.680 of the social media

00:14:41.440 hype train

00:14:41.940 do in fact have

00:14:42.920 a healthy respect

00:14:43.560 for each other's

00:14:45.540 political capabilities.

00:14:47.220 Two,

00:14:47.740 Pure Polyev would not

00:14:48.760 win an election

00:14:49.500 if the budget was defeated

00:14:50.600 and election was held

00:14:52.080 a bit after Christmas.

00:14:53.660 But Sunshine seems

00:14:54.500 to believe this indicates

00:14:55.640 Pureev is uniquely weak.

00:14:57.540 It absolutely doesn't.

00:14:58.680 No party in opposition

00:14:59.580 would benefit from

00:15:00.460 forcing an election

00:15:01.220 over the Christmas season.

00:15:02.700 That would be

00:15:03.200 political suicide

00:15:04.020 to be the party

00:15:05.200 that is seen

00:15:06.020 as having triggered

00:15:06.780 an unnecessary election

00:15:07.740 and disrupting

00:15:08.400 people's holidays.

00:15:09.620 Plus, the door knocking 0.62

00:15:10.460 really sucks in the winter

00:15:11.480 so it's not great 0.69

00:15:12.360 for grassroots campaigning.

00:15:14.000 Sometimes you have to

00:15:14.740 give the devil his due

00:15:15.660 in politics

00:15:16.260 and we are not going

00:15:17.100 to let Mark Carney's

00:15:18.600 and we are going

00:15:19.420 to have to let

00:15:19.900 Mark Carney's government

00:15:20.680 carry on for a bit longer

00:15:22.060 before an economic update

00:15:24.260 comes out

00:15:24.740 or something of that nature

00:15:25.860 that demonstrates

00:15:26.900 his policies are failing

00:15:28.220 and he needs

00:15:28.980 his government ended.

00:15:30.400 Mark Carney's policies

00:15:31.160 are bad

00:15:31.640 and a lot of his promises

00:15:32.460 have already been broken

00:15:33.620 but the average voter

00:15:34.740 isn't paying

00:15:35.360 that close attention

00:15:36.180 to what's going on

00:15:37.140 to the extent

00:15:37.920 that they've solidly concluded

00:15:40.160 whether or not

00:15:40.920 they trust Mark Carney still.

00:15:42.820 The budget was a hot mess

00:15:44.020 but again,

00:15:44.560 it will take a bit more time

00:15:45.820 for people to realize

00:15:46.700 how much of a mess it is

00:15:47.800 and trying to trigger

00:15:48.740 an election right now

00:15:49.640 and then convince Canadians

00:15:50.680 that the budget was bad

00:15:51.680 during the course of it 0.99

00:15:52.600 would be foolish. 0.85

00:15:54.200 I think that politics 0.99

00:15:55.160 and social media

00:15:55.840 can often

00:15:56.380 descend it.

00:16:01.280 I think I just used

00:16:02.000 the wrong word

00:16:02.500 but it can descend.

00:16:03.400 I looked at my own sentence

00:16:04.920 and I realized

00:16:05.440 I had the wrong word there.

00:16:06.420 I can basically end it there.

00:16:09.360 I'll link my post

00:16:10.080 in the description

00:16:10.560 for the rest of you

00:16:11.280 but I said that

00:16:12.060 politics can be

00:16:12.900 a lot of algorithmic thinking.

00:16:14.680 Either the conservatives

00:16:15.940 pass the budget

00:16:17.000 or the conservatives

00:16:17.880 defeat the budget

00:16:19.920 or the conservatives

00:16:20.720 are weak.

00:16:21.760 Either Polyev comes 0.97

00:16:23.100 and speaks on the ostriches

00:16:24.280 or he doesn't like freedom.

00:16:25.740 Either this guy does this

00:16:27.260 or he's that.

00:16:28.160 It's like that's really

00:16:29.160 not how it works

00:16:30.260 oftentimes.

00:16:31.600 Polyev couldn't speak 1.00

00:16:32.400 on behalf of the ostriches

00:16:34.000 because guess what

00:16:34.720 that ends up voiding

00:16:35.900 the decision

00:16:36.400 in the Supreme Court

00:16:37.200 because once a political leader

00:16:38.840 starts advocating

00:16:39.600 for something

00:16:40.080 that's in the courts

00:16:40.860 the judge is either

00:16:42.200 just going to rule

00:16:43.140 against you out of spite

00:16:44.140 or they actually

00:16:44.900 sometimes have to

00:16:45.620 throw the case out.

00:16:46.900 It's just how it works

00:16:47.940 in Canadian politics.

00:16:49.660 And people trying

00:16:50.640 to basically

00:16:51.440 create their own

00:16:52.820 formula for whether

00:16:54.100 or not the conservatives

00:16:54.960 are doing a good job

00:16:55.900 without actually taking

00:16:57.080 into account

00:16:57.740 the whole picture

00:16:58.360 I think are doing

00:16:59.480 a disservice

00:17:00.280 to like if they have

00:17:02.240 an audience

00:17:02.700 to their audience.

00:17:03.740 If you're telling

00:17:04.480 your audience

00:17:05.160 that Polyev is weak

00:17:06.020 because of his budget vote

00:17:07.000 you don't know enough

00:17:08.640 about politics

00:17:09.220 to say that.

00:17:10.000 I'm just going to say

00:17:10.760 you need to know

00:17:11.680 more about politics

00:17:12.520 before you just

00:17:13.280 condemn people as weak

00:17:14.760 or promote them

00:17:15.940 as being strong.

00:17:17.560 Anyways,

00:17:18.500 that should be it
