Speaker 1 (00:03):
The Liberal Party of Canada is so corrupt. The people
that make up the Liberal Party of Canada, which is
what the Liberal Party of Canada is, it's people, and
the people that make up the Liberal Party of Canada
are just irredeemably corrupt. It just never ends. It just
keeps going and going and going, and they change leader.
(00:25):
Trudeau's God, now it's Carney and it's the same thing.
These people are just inveterate liars and cheaters. Liberal operatives
planted stop the Steel buttons at Conservative conference. Liberal Party
says campaigners regrettably got carried away with use of the buttons.
Regrettably got carried away. Let's see, these were like war
(00:47):
room Liberal staffers. These are people on the payroll. These
are not just random people. These were people at the top.
Two Liberal Party staffers attended last week's Canada Strong and
Free Network conference, where they planted buttons that used Trump
style language and highlighted division within the Conservative Party. Because
that's all the Liberal Party is now through this election.
(01:09):
It's just the anti Trump party. Their entire strategy is
to try and paint Peer Polyeff as Trump, which he is.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Not.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
By the way, Peer Polyiff doesn't need to be Trump.
Canada and the US are different, different countries. Trump is
a singular figure anyway, right, nobody's Trump except for Trump.
So with their incredible hubris and arrogance, they went out,
they had buttons made and went to a Canadian Conservative
(01:40):
conference and then passed around these buttons so they could
get pictures and they could get press, and then of
course the press would love it. Press would love it,
and that would hurt the Conservative Party. Here's some of
the buttons here. So this was posted by Chris Warkington.
These are the buttons Mark Cardie operatives were caught distributing. Okay,
(02:02):
so Locke, justin up, stop the steal free Alberta. This
wasn't a couple of rogue Liberal staffers. This took planning, designing,
and manufacturing. When will Mark Carney denounce his team for
importing America style politics into Canada. If you won't denounce
it and fire those responsible, we will. We will know
(02:23):
he endorses it. What did he actually say? What did
Mark Carney actually say about this? Here we go, So
from Mark Slapinski, let's take a look.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Good morning, Kate mckenneugh from the CBC. Members of the
Liberal war Room. So the Central Campaign distributed stop the
Steel buttons at a conservative event. Given the anti democratic
implications of this phrase, how much does this event undermine
the trust in the way that the Liberals operate? And
what have you done in response to these revelations?
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Thanks for the question. Look, this is totally unacceptable, to
be absolutely clear, and I on behalf of my campaign
I was unaware of this behavior, but on behalf of
my campaign I apologize for it unreservedly. Okay, I've made
it absolutely clear to my campaign that this behavior, anything
(03:13):
approximating it or in that spirit is unacceptable, cannot happen,
cannot happen.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Again, the leadership, it comes from the top. The leadership
comes from the top. These weren't just a couple of
randoms that you know, go put signs out in people's laws, right,
These are people from the war room. All right, This
is the kind of atmosphere that he's breeding there. This
is totally normal for the Liberal Party, by the way,
completely normal for the Liberal Party. So let's see the
(03:41):
original CBC report here and to prove that.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
But recently I learned it was an operation undertaken by
the Liberal war room itself. Two operatives went to the
conference and planted these buttons and in an attempt to
tie conservative supporters to the politically toxic Donald Trump. I
was having dinner with friends and I saw some people
who I recognized to be Liberal staffers. I overheard the
person next to me, a man who had already identified
(04:05):
himself as someone who was working in the Liberal war room,
and he's talking about how he was at the conference
and planted these buttons in a Liberal campaign sanctioned false
flag operation. So I confronted him. He knew I was
a journalist. I said, if you did that, then that's
a story and I'll report it. At first, he conceded
that he had said that, but once I said it
was going to be a story, he denied having said
(04:27):
anything at all. So I left shortly after, and then
at a separate bar, a conservative source told me another
Liberal campaign staffer was also about talking about it. So
the next day I put in a request for comment
with the Liberal Party and they didn't deny it. It's
not unusual for political parties to play tricks like this
during a campaign, but it is unusual to hear about
it from them.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
So even the CBC. This is posted by Canada proud.
Even the CBC is utterly disgusted by Mark Carney's constant
lying and hoaxes. Let's take a look.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Yeah, look, the state and we got from the party
yesterday was crap in terms of like, there are stronger
words I would like to use. It spoke around the
issue without speaking to the issue. Was all this nonsense,
passive voice, and it reminded me of the Comm's troubles
they had when they were at sixteen percent in the poll.
So at least I don't know if they've learned from
that near death experience in terms of addressing an issue.
Clearly the Liberal leader was better at it today.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
But you know, he's just mad because he wants the
Liberals to win so badly, and he started to see
a turn in the pulling a little bit and that's
why he's mad. He doesn't want the Liberals to blow
it after all of their hard work. How about this?
This was posted by an oil.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Exec the Carni campaign.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Their main offer is calm and stability and a lack
of drama and this violated that. And then lastly, I
really do I want to agree. I think it's you know,
reassigning these staffers to somewhere else in the campaign. It's
really not acceptable. They displayed excessively poor judgment, not just
in doing this, of course in speaking about it in
front of a journalist. And yes, I understand these are
(06:04):
likely young people who are learning something, but there's a
big boys will be boys energy to the way it's
been dealt with that I have is no good.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Yeah, you know, to Lisa's form she named off all
the others.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I think it's it's not just a boys will be boys.
It's say we have no ethics, we have no ethics,
and we haven't the entire time. I think it's more
of that energy from JJ. McCollough says, this is wild.
Pierre isn't being Trump like enough for the liberals. So
they have agents creating false conservative campaign merch in an
attempt to gaslight the public into accepting their alternate reality.
(06:38):
This is true. American politics and Canadian politics are different.
We're two different countries. It's different. Canadian campaigns are different
from American campaigns, all right, so, but they desperately the
entire campaign is just hate Trump. Just be totally unreasoningly
hysterical about Trump. Don't think about the future, don't think
(06:59):
don't think ten minutes into the future, right, Oh, no,
our relationship with the States is over and yeah, and
our security relationship is over to even though we can't
even defend ourselves for God's sakes. No, no, let's not
think fifteen minutes into the future. Let's just be hysterical
and whip up smooth branded Canadians who know literally nothing
(07:20):
that they haven't heard from come out of the mouth
of Rosemary Barton. Let's just whip them up into a
fraid frenzy when and then can and then finish the
job of destroying the Canadian economy and all of that
Canadian freedom. Warren Kinsella said, this deeply stupid move is
going to make those of us in the media now
question every single thing the liberal war room generates really
(07:42):
really stupid. And I agree with that anyway. That's all
I'm going to say about that. Please like, share, and subscribe.
Subscribing really helps me out. I thank you for that.
I will see you next time.
