WEBVTT - Canadian Fascism Eh? Part 2 0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:10.520 Hello. Nope, that's not it. That's it, Garrison. The episode 0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:16.400 has begun. It cannot be unbegun. A let's let's roll 0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:20.599 right into it. Let's talk about so well welcome says 0:00:20.600 --> 0:00:24.040 it could happen here. Um today, the today. The here 0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.880 is is Canada, that is the that is where it 0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:29.200 could happen. Um. This is gonna be part two of 0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:32.000 my little deep dive into Canadian fascism and the far 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:35.040 right rumblings in general in the Great White North. And 0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.519 oh god, that is a bad, bad nickname for Canada, 0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:43.560 the Great White NORTHCCATE did not really think that went through, 0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:52.360 oopsie doodle. Maybe the yeah, there's a good chance anyway. Um. 0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.840 The last episode we left off with the Canadian yellow vests, um, 0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.800 and you know, frightening increase in Islamophobia and anti human 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:05.400 grace and rhetoric around late after Trump selection. And we 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:08.680 started the last episode by talking about one of Canada's 0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:12.360 first fascist political parties. And we're gonna start part two 0:01:12.720 --> 0:01:16.400 but talking about Canada's new neo fascist political party that 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.920 also got started inside the province of Quebec just like 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:23.000 the National Unity Party did. Uh. This one is called 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:27.759 the People's Party of Canada. Um, before we get into 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.120 the People's Party, and first to give some background on 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:33.800 the founder of the party, Maxine Bernier. Um. And that's 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.080 how that's that's how I'm gonna say his name. Um, 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.560 no one at me, it's good enough. Um. Brenair was 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:42.880 born in Quebec in nineteen sixty three. On is the 0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:46.720 son of a conservative talk radio host turned politician. Isn't 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:53.440 that funny? Isn't that funny? How that keeps happening? Uh? Yeah, 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:57.880 So Brenair entered politics into US in six um he 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.040 ran as the Conservative Party candidate for the House of 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:02.800 Commons in the same writing district that his father had 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:06.760 represented in the eighties and nineties. Stephen Harper, leader of 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.280 the new United Conservative Party, initially wanted Maxine's father to 0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:13.799 re enter politics, but Bernair Senior was less keen on 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:17.200 that idea, and instead told Harper that he that perhaps 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.840 his son should run in his place. Radio and nepotism, 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:26.799 radio and nepotism, yep, and politicians, and yeah it is 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.799 it is starting great. Um. So at this point Bernair 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:34.040 was more like a free market libertarian, libertarian type guy, 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:36.560 you know, still with some of the same like conservative 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:39.799 immigration stuff that's that's common in Quebec, but he was 0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:43.359 more of just like a libertarian dude. Bernair easily won 0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:46.160 the writing writings of what we call districts here in 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.839 the States, ranking at sixty seven percent of the popular vote, 0:02:49.840 --> 0:02:53.519 which was the largest majority for a Conservative politician outside 0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:55.919 of the province of Alberta. So he he did, he 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:58.959 did very well. Bernair, who had a background in business, 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:02.040 quickly rose through the ranks of the Conservative Party. Within 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.160 the same year he was appointed to be a cabinet 0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:07.000 minister in the Harper government. Um and he worked as 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.639 a as an industry minister from to us in six 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:12.440 to us and seven before being promoted to a foreign 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.680 affairs minister. Then in two thousand eleven he was appointed 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:19.679 of He was appointed as Minister of the State. So 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:23.560 in in spring of sixteen, after the fifth after the 0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:27.639 federal election, uh Bernaer put in his bid to be 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.960 the new elected Conservative Party leader. UM So, I'm gonna 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:35.480 briefly explain how Canadian elections work. You you don't vote 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.680 for a prime minister. You vote for a party within 0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:42.800 your specific district if you if if your party wins, 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:45.240 they get a seat in Parliament. Whoever has the most 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.760 seats in parliament, that's whose prime minister gets elected. So 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.640 whoever is whoever is the leader of the party, they 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:54.640 will be prime minister if that party gets the most seats. 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:58.120 So two us. In sixteen, Burner put in his bid 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.440 to be the new Conservative Party leader. Uh. He got 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:05.240 remarkably close to securing the spot as leader of the Conservatives. 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:08.560 In the final round of voting, he received forty nine 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:12.560 point zero five percent of the vote, losing to Saskatchewan 0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:16.200 Conservative politician Andrew Shear, who got fifty point nine percent, 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:20.560 so less less than two percent difference. He was so 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:23.800 close to the comic leader of the Conservative Party, like ridiculous. 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:28.520 So yeah, after his extremely slight loss, he continued to 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.640 work in Shear's Conservative Party for a few years. Um. 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:34.280 If you remember from the last episode, Around this time 0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.400 was when these homophobia and anti immigration talking points were 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:40.800 starting to gain a new popularity, and Bernaer followed along 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:43.640 with this trend. He would tweet out about the dangers 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:48.719 of extreme multiculturalism and he had like an increasingly racist 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.640 and divisive rhetoric and that kind of caused some drama 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:57.440 within the Conservative establishment. So in August of eighteen, around 0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.680 the same time the yellow vest movement in Canada was 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:03.960 starting up, Berner resigned from the Conservative Party with the 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.880 stated intention of forming a new federal populist far right 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.760 political party. Um here here, here's a segment from his 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.320 resignation speech and he he does talk in a very 0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:23.279 thick French accent. I'm not going to do that. Um yeah, 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:30.760 you're you're channel the energy. Um that was that was 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:37.360 just direct audio instead of leading as a principal Conservative 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:40.520 and defending the interests of Canada and Canadians. Andrew Sheer 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.800 is following the Trudeau Liberals. I was told that internal 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.880 polling is showing that the Liberals response to Trump is popular, 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.280 and that in six months, if the polls change, the 0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.480 party's stand may change to the same thing happened in 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:56.080 reaction to my tweets on diversity and multiculturalism. This is 0:05:56.120 --> 0:05:58.920 another crucial debate for the future of our country. Do 0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:02.040 you want to emphasize the ethnic and religious differences or 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:04.680 exploit them to buy votes as the Liberals are doing, 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:07.480 or emphasize what unites us and the values that can 0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:11.320 guarantee social cohesion. Just like other Western societies grappling with 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.000 this issue. A large number of Canadians, and certainly the 0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.760 vast majority of Conservatives, are worried that we are heading 0:06:16.760 --> 0:06:19.840 in the wrong direction. But it's not correct to raise 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:23.640 such questions. So yeah, and I think that I honestly 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:28.479 one of the main reasons why Brenaire hasn't been super successful, 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:32.880 UM is because of his accent, like he is. It's 0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:39.080 harder for Protestant white Canadians to support him because he 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:42.640 talks with a French Canadian accent. Um. If if if 0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:46.320 he talked in like good English, I think he would 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.320 have he would have won Conservative leadership UM and his 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.480 populist party would be way more popular than than than 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:57.760 it is now. So critical support to other French racism 0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:00.880 is preventing the racist from being racist enough. Yes, you 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:06.840 love to see you certainly see it. We do, we 0:07:06.920 --> 0:07:10.600 do see it. So Brenner faced some pushback from his 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:14.440 conservative colleagues, including Stephen Harper, of trying to divide the 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:18.240 right and split the right of center vote. UM and 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.200 some of the less socially conservative members of the main 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:25.640 Conservative Party decried Berner's departure and subsequent New People's Party 0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:28.280 as just a plain attempt to pander to xenophobia and 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:32.520 racist right wingers. But Brenner went right to work and 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.080 ran enough candidates under his new party to secure a 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:38.160 spot in the federal election debates that were like that, 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.880 you know that how we watch presidential debates, same thing, 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:42.720 but these have you know, multiple candidates because there are 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.960 multiple parties, the same thing. But basically he was able 0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:49.320 to get in the televised debates. Um, the PPC, which 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:50.920 is the People's Party of canad I'm just gonna say 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.600 the PPC now because it sounds funny. Um. They started 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:56.680 going viral on the internet after pictures of massive billboards 0:07:56.720 --> 0:08:00.080 with Berner's face and big text that said saying no 0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:03.000 to mass immigration. This this this guy very is this 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:08.960 guy very Mimi around like these big, these big PPC billboards. Um, 0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:11.480 I'm gonna I'm gonna read a bit from a write 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.640 up and it's going down by some local um Montreal 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:18.960 anti fascists. There have been suggestions that the PPC spokesperson 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.280 and architect of its public relations strategy, Martin Mass, has 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:24.840 been key to its embrace of the far right. Mass 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:28.240 was owner of the publisher of the Capucua Libre, which 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:30.760 is an online libertarian news outlet that shut down in 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:35.920 and that pp but that PPC's cozy relationship with racist 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.160 is primarily due to the influence of this one person 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:42.440 is highly doubtful, however, that the PPC is positioning itself 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:44.520 as the option of choice for those who find the 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:48.480 Conservative Party insufficiently right wing. Racism is clearly just one 0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.559 of the most effective tools for such a strategy. Witnessing 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.480 PPC billboards and tweets against mass immigration, also tweets about 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:59.720 being against Antifa and Bernara's diet tribe about radical Islam 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:02.160 being the biggest threat to freedom and peace and security 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.880 in the world today, and how he complains about other 0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:09.160 parties are are complacent and pandering to Islamists and promising 0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:12.280 that the PPC will make no compromise with the tolitarian ideology. 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:15.400 A number of media articles have revealed the far right 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.079 connections to people active in the PPC as organizers and 0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:22.000 members whose signatures were used for the PPC to gain 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:25.839 official party status. Um for instance, a Derek Horne, the 0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:29.600 PPC volunteer and a security agent who accompanied Bernair at 0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:32.880 a variety offense and media interviews. He has been revealed 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.439 to be a founding member of the neo fascist Canadian 0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.200 Nationalist Party, which we we briefly mentioned in the last episode. UM. 0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:42.800 Sean Walker is an American immigrant and organizer with the 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:45.719 PPC in St. Catharine's UM, as well as one of 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:47.360 the people who signed on for PPC to be an 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:49.520 official party. He was revealed to be the president of 0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:53.679 the National Alliance US, based in the Nazi organization seven. 0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:58.200 He was also he was also convicted of hate crimes 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:00.280 at the time for violence Stands People of Color UM. 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.719 Following these revelations, Walker was expelled from the PPC and 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.920 Bernard claimed that he'd slipped through the party's betting process. However, 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:10.000 was also revealed that Bernar follows him on Twitter UM. 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.640 Others who signed up for the for the PPC two 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:17.040 beneficial party include Janice Bulch, a founding member of the 0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:23.839 Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamification of Accent, and also Justin L. Smith, 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.760 leader of this of the Sudbury chapter of the Soldiers 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.640 of Odin. So a whole bunch of whole bunch of 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.520 fascist people are working work working for the party UM 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:35.520 and unsurprisingly a number of a number of candidates have 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:37.839 made headlines, but there as there. You know, social media 0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:42.480 posts from the past and present have surfaced featuring like racism, islamophobia, 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.680 and a lot of spreading of far right conspiracy theories. 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:47.760 You know that was just kind of common. There's too many, 0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:51.240 honestly to mention. Um. And it's it's not just that 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.199 the PPC has a few bad apples in it. It's 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.160 like the whole the whole party is rife with these 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.160 kind of one of these kind of sentiments. Um. One 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:00.480 gauge of this and the sign and a sign that 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.160 like this is intentional is that as looking at the 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:05.400 candidates who have left the party or have been kicked 0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.400 out when it became clear that there would be no 0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:11.400 condemnation of the far right from the upper ranks, there 0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:15.120 was like and and justin like twenty nineteen alone, there 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:18.000 was like three candidates who were who left or were 0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:22.040 either kicked out um because they you know, had objections 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:24.400 to the racism rampant within the party. They were like 0:11:24.600 --> 0:11:26.800 complaining about, hey, these guys seem kind of racist, and 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:28.240 then they were kicked out of the party or or 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:33.480 or or they left. So yeah, that's that's a not 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:37.280 a good problem to have. UM. So in in uh 0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.959 finishing up this this little quote here UM. Indeed, a cursory, 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:45.319 accursory look at the Facebook pages of PPC candidates reveals 0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.360 what's been really noteworthy is how selective the news stories 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:51.520 about racist tweets or Facebook posts have been. Almost every 0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:54.640 PPC candidate in Quebec has recently in repeated lye shared 0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:58.719 articles from climate denialist sources, including many with a conspiratorial bent. 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.360 A Canada eight for pap and You even produced his 0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.280 own YouTube expose revealing how George Sorrows it's behind an 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.720 international global conspiracy theory to crash economies and make money 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:12.839 spending a panic about climate change. Secondary to climate denial, 0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:15.719 there's a lot of fears around free speech and mass immigration, 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.559 which are both recurring themes in the PPC candidates, and 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.839 roughly one in five have recently shared news articles from 0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.199 what we would deem a national populist or full right sources, 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:29.120 including less manchetz dot com, which is the website of 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.640 the French language of the French language translator of the 0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:36.880 Christ Church Um Manifesto UM, and that that the guy 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:39.319 who reads the website is also involved with organizing in 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:44.679 the Montreal In the Montreal chapter of the vests. Um. Yeah, 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:47.800 so he he both translated the manifesto and he's also 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:51.360 running the Montreal Yellow Best movement. So that's fun. Um, 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:56.720 it's not fun, it's bad, um, Andre Pytree pipe poo wow. 0:12:56.840 --> 0:13:00.720 And it's so you remember, so I didn't learned French 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.480 in Canada because I was in a weird Christian private school. 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.680 Otherwise I could be a lot better at this job. 0:13:07.679 --> 0:13:11.480 But anyway, there's there's a there's a there's a there's 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:14.000 just like a far right YouTube channel. But this guy 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:18.920 called Studio who a lot of his stuff was shared. Um. 0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:21.679 And there's a more like eccentric and sporadic mix of 0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:24.800 of of other news sources including Unite the Right attendee 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.280 Faith Goldie who also ran from Mayor of Toronto and 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.480 got third place, UM, Quebec based q and on figure 0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:34.760 Alexus trudell Um, and the al right YouTuber Black Pigeon Speaks. 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:38.160 Of course, the main Yellow Vest page was shared a lot, 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:42.120 and also sources from the highly racist The Voice of Europe. 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:45.719 So yeah, a lot of a lot of a lot 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:49.760 of not not great news sources being being shared by 0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:53.400 the PBC. UM. So that is the gist of the 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:58.280 People's Party as of twenty nineteen UM. Overall, their performance 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:00.480 in the twenty nineteen election was it is kind of 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:04.079 a flop. Bernair lost his own seat in Quebec. No 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:07.040 PTC candidates got into office, and the party only managed 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.679 to get one uh in the party only managed to 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:13.360 get one point six percent of the total national popular vote, 0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:19.440 so that's good. It only got one point six percent 0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:22.920 of all of the votes in Canada. So we're gonna 0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:25.600 take a break from the People's Party for now and 0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:28.160 we will circle back towards it um at the end. 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:31.880 But after after an ad break, we will we will 0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:34.120 talk about the with the main Conservative party was up 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.920 to during this time and uh a little bit after 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:41.880 the nineteen election. So yep, and now the cats just 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:55.360 blocking the whole thing. All right, we're back. The cat 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.800 is in the bathroom. I moved from my cat blocked 0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:01.880 from the camera. Hello, um, People's Party not doing great 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:04.200 in the first election. That's fun. Let's see what the 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:06.560 regular Conservatives are up to. I'm sure it was things 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.720 that are just good and cool. If I know anything 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:17.360 about Conservatives, it's that they're not not hashtag problematic. Yeah, 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:21.640 just let's just got okay, so I'll just be sad 0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:23.840 over here, and the audience can know that I'm sad 0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:26.280 the whole time you're talking. I would rather as episode 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:28.880 not such a not such a downer, but it's it's 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.360 hard to make it these kind of an upper I'll 0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:33.800 make a bargain with the audience that if they listen, 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:36.200 I will I will do my French accent at least 0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:39.280 one more time. We'll see doing the French accent. This 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.960 is the happiest I have seen Robert all day. Like 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:47.080 he does look very tired. You did say earlier, Garrison, 0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:49.120 and this was very funny that you'd be better at 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:52.040 your job if you could speak French. But given what 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:55.520 we are here, it cools owed media. You would actually 0:15:55.600 --> 0:16:00.200 be much worse at your job. Um And in act, 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:03.240 if you if you were to speak French, I would 0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:06.280 I would fire you immediate. It's actually requirement that you 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:12.240 can't pronounce things to certainly not French. There's other languages 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:14.560 you're allowed to know how to pronounce, but not French. 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:23.320 No ob lo francaie. So let's pick up right after 0:16:23.440 --> 0:16:26.520 Maxine Bernair lost the Conservative leadership to Andrew Sheer in 0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:32.560 um Sheer won the leadership on a on on like 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:36.600 a platform of classical financial conservatism and a slightly more 0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:40.680 socially moderate platform um. When Sheer got into office, though, 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.800 one of the things he faced criticism for, even among 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:46.800 the Conservative caucus was his association with a little media 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:49.840 with was his association with a little media outlet called 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:57.160 Rebel Media. Yeah so, most most listeners may not know 0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:00.400 what rebel media is, but you've certainly seen their stuff 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:03.600 or felt their effect. Yeah, it's like the rough draft 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:08.920 of bright Bart. And also Canadian and Canadian, yes so Canadian. 0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:12.120 Uh so. Rebel Media is a Canadian far right neo 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:16.080 fascist propaganda outlet's start that has a lot of a 0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:22.080 lot of bright Bardi vibes. Umbel Media, Yeah, bright bartesque. 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:26.600 Rebel Media hosts and contributors have included a white nationalist 0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.920 and white genocide proponent, Laurence Southern UM and Proud Boy 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:35.320 founder Gavin McGinnis UM. McGinnis produced a quote satirical video 0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:41.320 for Rebel called ten Things I Hate about the Jews. Yeah, 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.520 yeah so, and and it's and it is worth noting 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:49.400 that both Southern and McGinnis are Canadian. Um. They're actually 0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:52.800 a lot of alt right figures that are Canadian. Of 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:55.440 course we have we have Lauren Southern, Gavin McGinnis, Um, 0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:58.760 we have Stephen Crowder, uh Stefan malin you and of 0:17:58.840 --> 0:18:01.920 course Jordan Peterson. All of those people are are Canadian 0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:07.680 and most of them, most of them still live in Canada. Yes, 0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:11.600 he's still alive. Made it. He made insane tweet the 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:16.760 other day. God, he made the most tweet. That tweet 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:20.119 made it all worthwhile. Baby, he got everyone to go 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:22.760 check his Twitter feed. It is amazing. You can you 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:26.479 can hear his brain shorting out when you read that tweet, 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:30.879 like you need to find the tweet it is. It 0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:34.040 is just it is the most beautiful piece of poetry 0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:37.320 I ever. It's like somebody taught a stroke out of type. 0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:44.640 It makes no sense. God, it's so good. Um. I'm 0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:47.199 going to quote an article by a Global News dot 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:50.879 c a on Andrew Sheer and Rebel media. Quote. Despite 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:53.560 a string of controversies faced by Canadian right wing media 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.800 outlet to the Rebel, including allegations of downplaying the Holocaust 0:18:57.440 --> 0:19:00.399 movie minted, Conservative Party leader Andrew Shear has so far 0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:02.760 continued to make himself available to the company that other 0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:07.640 prominent conservative politicians have criticized for its controversial reporting and activism. 0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:11.080 She Hear's campaign organization also has a direct connection to 0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:14.479 The Rebel. His campaign manager, Hamish Marshall, is listed as 0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:18.000 a director of the company's federal incorporation records, which show 0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:20.880 its most recent annual gathering meeting was in February this year. 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:24.679 Following the leadership election in Toronto on Saturday, Sheer granted 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.320 one on one interviews with a handful of major media organizations, 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:30.000 including a face to face interview with The Rebels Ottawa 0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:34.760 correspondent Brian Lily. Prior to his convention interview, Sheer appeared 0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:36.960 on The Rebel in February in a studio interview with 0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:40.960 host Faith Goldie on her show on the Hunt. At 0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:43.760 the end of the discussion, Goldie asked Sheer if if 0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:45.440 he would agree to go on a duck hunting trip 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:49.200 with her after after he wins the leadership on Canada Day, 0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:53.280 which he agreed to. UM We briefly mentioned Faith Goldie 0:19:53.280 --> 0:19:55.760 earlier in her connection to the People's Party UM and 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.560 her brief campaign for the Toronto mayor, but here's some 0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:02.720 more background on her UM and her coverage and her 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:05.520 coverage of the Unite the Right rally for Rebel Media. 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:10.359 Quoting from Winnipeg Free Press. In the course of her dispatches, 0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:13.480 Goldie argued the events in the Charlottesville were evidence of 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:16.879 a rising white racial consciousness that was going to change 0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:20.040 the political landscape in America. She also wanted to she's 0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:23.520 actually not wrong there. That was, Yeah, she's not wrong, 0:20:23.960 --> 0:20:26.639 but I think she's she's on the other side of 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:30.280 the island. And whether this is a good or bad thing. Yeah. 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:33.280 She went to great lengths to laud the twenty point 0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:37.560 Meta political Manifesto composed by White National's leader Richard Spencer, 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.359 a document that includes calls to organize U states along 0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:44.960 ethnic and racial divides and celebrates the superiority of white 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:49.520 America faith. Goldie described Spencer's manifesto as robust and well 0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:54.160 thought out. Goldie was fired by Rebel in mid August 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:57.720 and seventeen, but not due to her participation in Unite 0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:00.720 the Right. She was fired for appearing on a Daily 0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:06.160 Stormer podcast to discuss Unite the Right. So yeah, yeah, 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:09.159 that's that's fine, So yeah, fine, nice to have her. 0:21:09.280 --> 0:21:14.359 Interviewing Conservative leader Andrew Sheer asked for his reaction to 0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:18.000 Unite the Right and Rebel Media UM. After what happened 0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:21.919 in Charlotte'sville in seventeen, Sheer, who had previously been interviewed 0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:25.680 by Rebel multiple times, h finally disavowed the outlets, saying, look, 0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:28.000 I believe there's a fine line between covering events and 0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:30.520 giving a platform to groups who are promoting a violent, 0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:33.920 disgusting point of view. I won't be granting interviews going forward. 0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:37.640 So that's nice that it took someone dying in Charlotte's 0:21:37.640 --> 0:21:39.520 Bill to realize that you probably shouldn't talk to the 0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:44.400 fascist media source. UM. So in the aftermath of Unite 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:47.600 the Right, the mainstream conservatives kind of had to tread 0:21:47.720 --> 0:21:50.600 carefully around social issues because it's like, oh, yeah, they're 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:53.639 they're still not sias. We probably shouldn't be pandering to them. Um. 0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:56.399 But as more time and distance let the air cool, 0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.359 some conservatives went back to the same old rhetoric around 0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:03.080 the twenty nine election. UM. For instance, in his twenty 0:22:03.200 --> 0:22:07.919 nineteen election campaign, uh Tom Chemick, of the parliamentary representative 0:22:07.920 --> 0:22:11.600 of one of the parliamentary representatives for Calgary, Alberta, wrote 0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:14.359 out and spread flyers with the all claps with the 0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:18.119 all caps header of crisis at the Border UH with 0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:21.919 text treating deer constituent. The Independent Autor General of Canada 0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:24.960 has published a scathing report confirming that the Ottawa Liberals 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.560 have failed to safely and responsibly manage Canada's borders. Since 0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:31.280 Justin Trudeau you responsibly tweeted out that Canada would open 0:22:31.280 --> 0:22:34.200 sports to anyone seeking entry, the number of people illegally 0:22:34.240 --> 0:22:36.600 crossing the board into Canada from the United States has 0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:39.159 surged past one thousand a month, with almost twenty thou 0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:43.600 people illegally enteringen alone, and while speaking to voters of 0:22:43.800 --> 0:22:46.800 COMAC repeatedly insisted that all the problems of people illegally 0:22:46.840 --> 0:22:49.560 crossing the Canadian border isn't a symptom of a failure 0:22:49.600 --> 0:22:52.400 of systems to respond to a growing crisis, but merely 0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:55.440 a failure for border patrol to with to assert control 0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:59.800 over people. Um quotes and flyer courtesy of about This 0:23:00.400 --> 0:23:03.760 Tom chemic Guy a courtesy of a. Dan Olson of 0:23:03.840 --> 0:23:07.359 Folding Ideas. He's a great Canadian documentarian who released a 0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:10.120 magnificent piece on Q and on and conspiracy theories last 0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:14.680 year on his YouTube channel of Folding Ideas. Overall, I really, 0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:18.240 really like Dan, he makes very good stuff. Um, so 0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.200 thank thank you to him for sending me those those 0:23:21.440 --> 0:23:25.520 those flyers. Um. Anyway, during the election, Sheer led the 0:23:25.560 --> 0:23:28.480 Conservatives to gain a total of twenty six seats in 0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:32.639 the inside Parliament, going from ninety five up to one 0:23:32.760 --> 0:23:36.480 hundred and twenty one. But they did finish thirty six 0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:39.760 seats behind the Liberals despite beating the Liberals in the 0:23:39.800 --> 0:23:42.920 popular vote by one point three percent. So that was 0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:45.600 a thirty four point four percent for Conservatives and thirty 0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:47.719 three point one percent of the popular vote for Liberals. 0:23:47.960 --> 0:23:49.840 The margin was just over like two hundred and forty 0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:52.680 thousand votes. Um. The Liberals lost twenty seats in the 0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:56.040 election and the NDP lost fifteen seats. And this was 0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:59.760 the first time since to UH since nineteen seventy nine 0:24:00.000 --> 0:24:02.680 at a party won the most seats without also winning 0:24:02.680 --> 0:24:06.320 the popular vote. Um. What what pushed the Conservatives over 0:24:06.440 --> 0:24:08.880 on the popular vote was due to you know, extremely 0:24:08.960 --> 0:24:13.080 high conservative turnout in UH in in in various in 0:24:13.200 --> 0:24:16.359 various writings. So basically more conservatives voted in certain running 0:24:16.400 --> 0:24:18.320 than they usually do. So even if the Liberals still 0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.840 win the district, there was still more conservative votes to 0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:25.119 be counted UM. And also they basically swept the Prairie 0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:27.960 provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, where they won seventy percent 0:24:28.040 --> 0:24:31.200 of the vote in sixties five percent of the vote, respectively. 0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:34.959 But their victories in those states and their higher turnout 0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:38.040 did not convert into many seats because the less population 0:24:38.080 --> 0:24:42.320 dense areas have fewer federal writings and fewer available seats UM, 0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:45.879 and the Liberals had to rely heavily for seats in 0:24:46.160 --> 0:24:48.800 Ontario though, you know, the most populous province that include 0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:52.280 cities like Toronto, UM and you know other a few 0:24:52.320 --> 0:24:55.480 other big cities. So you know, Canada doesn't have the 0:24:55.480 --> 0:24:57.760 most democratic system like so the same way you know 0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:00.400 in the States were familiar with, you know, p losing 0:25:00.440 --> 0:25:03.720 popular votes um but still getting elected president and stuff. 0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:05.399 You know, in Canadas it's it's it's a little bit 0:25:05.400 --> 0:25:07.960 different because of how you vote for parties in your 0:25:08.000 --> 0:25:11.119 own little district. UM. But you know, it's still not perfect, 0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:13.359 right because like it is. It it does feel weird 0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:16.240 for the leader of the leader of the country to 0:25:16.359 --> 0:25:18.240 not have his party to not have also won the 0:25:18.280 --> 0:25:20.440 popular vote because of how you know, districts work out 0:25:20.720 --> 0:25:22.959 and how higher turn out in some areas doesn't mean 0:25:23.000 --> 0:25:26.280 that it's going to have more seats, um you know. 0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:28.159 But the other side of things here is that like 0:25:29.160 --> 0:25:32.320 Canada also doesn't have ranked choice, so like, still the 0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:34.800 majority of people voted for left of center candidates if 0:25:34.840 --> 0:25:36.640 you include you know, the Green Party, the n DP, 0:25:36.880 --> 0:25:39.840 and the Liberals. So even the Liberals lost the popular vote, 0:25:39.840 --> 0:25:42.680 there's still like a majority left of center voting. So 0:25:42.800 --> 0:25:44.879 if they if they had ranked choice, maybe the results 0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:48.760 would have been different. So Canada's system it definitely isn't 0:25:48.760 --> 0:25:51.520 perfect for how they do elections. UM. I would I 0:25:51.560 --> 0:25:55.280 would prefer ranks choice, as you know, basically basically I 0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:57.120 would prefer that for like every country if they're gonna 0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:59.960 have elections. Um So yeah, just kind of explaining why 0:26:00.240 --> 0:26:02.280 they can lose the popular boat but still you know, 0:26:02.520 --> 0:26:07.240 still win a majority controlling government. Um So. After the election, 0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:10.120 Sheer announced he was resigning as head of the Conservatives 0:26:10.160 --> 0:26:12.680 in December of twenty nineteen. Uh. This was after it 0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:14.600 was revealed that he had used party funds for his 0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:19.000 children's own private schooling. So good for him. Um A 0:26:19.119 --> 0:26:21.720 new bid for Conservative leadership went into effect. We're gonna 0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:25.000 mainly focus on two candidates here Uh there was an 0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:29.080 erin O'Toole and Derek solan Um. O'Toole fancies himself as 0:26:29.080 --> 0:26:32.320 another kind of like classic financial conservative and the social moderate. 0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:36.040 He feels more like the old progressive conservative candidates from 0:26:36.080 --> 0:26:37.960 back before the two of US and three Unite the 0:26:38.080 --> 0:26:41.439 Right merger. Um we got some like John McCain vibes 0:26:41.640 --> 0:26:44.800 here um, but Derek solan is more similar to the 0:26:45.000 --> 0:26:48.119 farther right parts of the U s IS current Republican Party, 0:26:48.680 --> 0:26:53.800 like anti abortion, anti LGBT, racist tweets, etcetera. UM, but 0:26:54.240 --> 0:26:58.520 as a whole, Solon's extremism was rejected by the Canadian Conservatives. 0:26:58.920 --> 0:27:00.480 Um he got only he got like on the fourth 0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:03.120 He got fourth placed with fifteen of the vote during 0:27:03.160 --> 0:27:06.479 the first round of voting, UM and ultimately o'tool one 0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:10.720 leadership after three rounds of votes. UM and o'tool now 0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:14.080 has the has the new challenge of trying to appeal 0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:17.600 to the Canadian conservatives more moderate wing, as well as 0:27:17.680 --> 0:27:20.440 the more Trumpian wing that's developed the past few years. 0:27:21.080 --> 0:27:24.760 He's been relatively successful in crafting like a boring, polite 0:27:24.920 --> 0:27:28.680 Canadian version of Trump's nationalism. With slogans like Canada First 0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:32.119 and take Canada Back, um, you know, despite supporting trade 0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:36.280 deals outsourcing Canadian jobs to cheaper overseas markets because they 0:27:36.359 --> 0:27:40.040 never actually mean what they say, um and the and. 0:27:40.200 --> 0:27:42.920 As the Liberals have grown more aware of Canada's bloody 0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:45.480 history and have like toned down the red and white 0:27:45.560 --> 0:27:49.280 maple leaf patriotism, the Conservative Party under o'tool has seized 0:27:49.280 --> 0:27:51.960 on this opportunity to make Canadian patriotism more of a 0:27:52.119 --> 0:27:55.000 right leaning staple, just like patriotism is, you know, it's 0:27:55.000 --> 0:27:56.480 more of like a right wing thing in the States. 0:27:57.080 --> 0:28:00.600 So basically, after we were like, oh yeah, central schools 0:28:00.640 --> 0:28:03.040 were bad, Canada's kind of sucked up, Liberals are like, Okay, 0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:05.879 we maybe shouldn't be so we shouldn't be waving our 0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:08.959 maple leaf legs everywhere. Maybe we're not a perfect country. 0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:11.119 The Conservatives like, no, you have to be proud to 0:28:11.160 --> 0:28:13.480 be Canadian. So they've kind of taken patriotism to be 0:28:13.520 --> 0:28:15.720 their new thing. Well, previously it was much more of 0:28:15.760 --> 0:28:19.560 like a liberal thing. The Islamophobia and overt religious bigotry 0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:22.240 under a tool has been slightly trimmed down. Um and 0:28:22.320 --> 0:28:25.520 climate change has at least been mentioned as existing UM, 0:28:26.080 --> 0:28:28.159 but there has also been increased discussion on trying to 0:28:28.280 --> 0:28:32.840 hack down Canada's healthcare and privatize more aspects of it, which, yeah, 0:28:33.040 --> 0:28:38.040 good job, guys, take away the only good part of Canada. UM. 0:28:38.480 --> 0:28:42.440 Like the province of Alberta under Jason Kenny has done 0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:44.720 this to a disastrous effect UM, raising the cost of 0:28:45.200 --> 0:28:48.320 medical care for lower class people, many of whom voted 0:28:48.320 --> 0:28:51.480 Conservative UM. I have family in Alberta and just the 0:28:51.520 --> 0:28:53.479 past five years the changes to the healthcare system there 0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:57.240 has been horrible. UM, it's not it's not great. So 0:28:57.720 --> 0:29:00.520 basically what what what o'tool wants is he wants he 0:29:00.640 --> 0:29:02.640 wants to base just privatize more elements of it. He 0:29:02.680 --> 0:29:04.680 has a specific term he uses like he wants like a. 0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:07.480 He wants to like split the FED like the like, 0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:10.200 the taxpayer healthcare and privatized health care into two sections 0:29:10.240 --> 0:29:12.360 and you can choose which one to join in anyway, 0:29:12.440 --> 0:29:17.000 it's silly. UM. O'tewal did take a wee little stance 0:29:17.040 --> 0:29:19.360 to distance himself from the more extreme wings of his 0:29:19.480 --> 0:29:22.560 party when he decided to remove MP Derek Solan from 0:29:22.600 --> 0:29:25.440 the caucus. Oh Too announced that Solan will not be 0:29:25.480 --> 0:29:27.680 allowed to run as a candidate for the for the 0:29:27.680 --> 0:29:31.240 Conservative Party in the next election either, saying racism is 0:29:31.240 --> 0:29:33.680 a disease of the soul, repugnant to our core values. 0:29:33.880 --> 0:29:35.440 It has no place in our country and has no 0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:38.840 place in the Conservative Party of Canada. I won't tolerate it. Um. 0:29:38.960 --> 0:29:41.480 Also last year, O'Toole refused to say whether he thinks 0:29:41.520 --> 0:29:47.360 systemic racism exists um. But the decision to remove Soland 0:29:47.560 --> 0:29:50.240 was made after it was revealed that he accepted a 0:29:50.320 --> 0:29:55.520 donation from the Canadian Nazi Paul from during uh during 0:29:55.560 --> 0:29:58.840 Soland's bid for a Conservative leadership back in the nineties 0:29:58.960 --> 0:30:01.200 of From was a figurehead of the Canadian far right movement, 0:30:01.480 --> 0:30:05.040 appearing at Heritage Front rallies and also caught on video 0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:08.040 at a party celebrating Hitler's birthday, which he lost his 0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:13.440 high school teaching job over. Well, look, it's just polite 0:30:13.520 --> 0:30:16.240 to celebrate a guy's birthday, you know, whether or not 0:30:16.400 --> 0:30:23.280 he's Hitler, under no circumstances to you got us this, 0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:29.160 This is a hot tike. Um. So there has been 0:30:29.200 --> 0:30:30.480 a bit of the There has been a bit of 0:30:30.520 --> 0:30:33.640 a rift in the Conservative Party over how much Trumpian 0:30:33.680 --> 0:30:37.280 rhetoric should be allowed in the Canadian Conservative Party UM 0:30:37.400 --> 0:30:41.479 and this kind of rift has definitely increased after January six. UM. 0:30:41.880 --> 0:30:44.760 The problem for Conservative politicians is that to win elections 0:30:44.800 --> 0:30:47.400 they need to appeal to the largest swath of voters 0:30:47.920 --> 0:30:51.280 UM and that includes more socially conservative and increasingly far 0:30:51.480 --> 0:30:54.440 right rule folks. But if they go too far, they'll 0:30:54.480 --> 0:30:56.520 lose the moderates to the Liberal Party. So you have 0:30:56.600 --> 0:30:58.720 it's like this delicate balance. But to kind of give 0:30:58.720 --> 0:31:01.080 you like an over you of what the current state 0:31:01.120 --> 0:31:04.840 of the Conservative of Like votership is UM for intent 0:31:04.960 --> 0:31:07.240 of the Conservative Party of Canada members. So you know, 0:31:07.320 --> 0:31:09.200 people signed up to vote in the party. You know, 0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:13.000 regular people UM, four in ten would say that they 0:31:13.000 --> 0:31:15.479 would have voted for Trump for intents say that they 0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:19.400 think Democrats told the presential election. And for intents say 0:31:19.400 --> 0:31:23.960 that the Conservative and four intent believe that the January 0:31:24.040 --> 0:31:26.920 six riot was staged or was done by the Democrats, 0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:30.240 were done by Antiva. So that's kind of the state 0:31:30.320 --> 0:31:33.360 of the Conservative Party in Canada for like the for 0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:36.080 the voters. So you know, politicians have to kind of 0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:37.680 in order to win, they need they need still they 0:31:37.720 --> 0:31:40.120 still still need to appeal to those people, but they 0:31:40.200 --> 0:31:43.720 don't want to do that thing usually like they usually 0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:47.240 don't like usually there the like a big talking point 0:31:47.360 --> 0:31:50.680 is like rejecting the divisive politics of the of of 0:31:50.760 --> 0:31:52.520 the of the United States. Like that's a big thing 0:31:52.600 --> 0:31:55.239 people say in Canada. Is that Like they don't want 0:31:55.280 --> 0:31:57.760 it to become like, you know, like a fighting match, 0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:00.560 because like the other main difference between Canada's elections in 0:32:00.640 --> 0:32:04.040 America's elections is like America is like always an election season, 0:32:04.280 --> 0:32:06.560 right like every you know, even after each election, it's 0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:09.240 like you feel like campaigns start right up again. Um, 0:32:09.640 --> 0:32:12.800 Canada's campaigns only run like a few months before the election, 0:32:13.040 --> 0:32:16.200 like like it is not like those things you guys 0:32:16.280 --> 0:32:18.320 do objectively better than us, and a lot of the 0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:20.640 world does. It's not just Canada the idea that like, oh, 0:32:20.720 --> 0:32:24.480 elections are terrible, we should spend a little time. It's 0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:27.640 like to like two or three months of campaigning. That's it, Like, 0:32:27.920 --> 0:32:30.640 it's not it's not like a two year, four year thing. No, 0:32:30.920 --> 0:32:33.200 that is a thing that we should Absolutely the election 0:32:33.280 --> 0:32:35.920 should be about eleven minutes from from the start of 0:32:36.000 --> 0:32:39.040 the campaign to the vote. Everybody gets a minute to 0:32:39.200 --> 0:32:42.760 explain their their politics and then we vote and then 0:32:43.200 --> 0:32:47.480 we throw them into the sea. Yeah, so trying to 0:32:47.600 --> 0:32:50.200 trying to craft marketing to the divided right wing. It's 0:32:50.240 --> 0:32:52.800 been interesting to watch. You know. There's like videos about 0:32:52.800 --> 0:32:55.640 Tool walking through you know, downtowns with Pride flags in 0:32:55.680 --> 0:32:59.719 the background and you know, featuring visible like minority Canadians intermingling. 0:33:00.000 --> 0:33:01.760 But then you also have a tool like Ralely against 0:33:01.800 --> 0:33:05.400 cancel culture feeling suggestions that that the liberal government's pandemic 0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:08.680 response is part of a socialist great reset and pulling 0:33:08.720 --> 0:33:11.400 out the dog whistle on like China and the coronavirus, 0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:14.120 you know, as often as you can. UM Tools in 0:33:14.160 --> 0:33:18.120 the past also downplayed Canadians residential schools program UM and 0:33:18.400 --> 0:33:22.600 described the efforts of activists pushing to removal of statues 0:33:22.640 --> 0:33:26.440 of the of the residential of school architects as stupid. UM. So, 0:33:26.640 --> 0:33:30.120 I I do think O'tool prefers a conservative party resistant 0:33:30.120 --> 0:33:32.240 too far right branding, but he knows he needs to 0:33:32.240 --> 0:33:34.640 appeal to thiss voters in order to win elections. So 0:33:35.800 --> 0:33:38.640 it's it's it's it's just it's the thing that's not great, 0:33:38.720 --> 0:33:42.680 But it's interesting to watch. UM in August one, Justin 0:33:42.760 --> 0:33:46.640 Trudeau noted black face appreciator uh called a snap election 0:33:46.760 --> 0:33:49.320 in an effort to gain more parliamentary seats in hopes 0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:52.240 of getting a majority Liberal government, something a prime minister 0:33:52.320 --> 0:33:53.800 should not be allowed to do, by the way, like 0:33:53.880 --> 0:33:55.720 a priva minister should not be able to decide when 0:33:55.800 --> 0:33:58.840 to do elections. That is, like should totally not be 0:33:58.960 --> 0:34:05.200 a thing. Like what, no, you shouldn't do that, but anyway. Um. 0:34:05.520 --> 0:34:09.359 As snap election ramped up, the Conservative Party under a tool, 0:34:09.680 --> 0:34:14.920 made some extremely questionable choices for their marketings and their slogans. Um, 0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:21.160 what does the phrase secure the future bring to mind? Yeah? 0:34:21.640 --> 0:34:24.640 So that became the new tagline for the entire Conservative 0:34:24.680 --> 0:34:29.200 Party under a tool. Right, sure, we got, we got, 0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:31.759 we got, we got Secure the Future, billboards, we got, 0:34:31.880 --> 0:34:34.680 we got, we got websites Conservative dot c a slash 0:34:34.719 --> 0:34:39.239 secure the future. We got mailer's magazine covers all emblazoned 0:34:39.280 --> 0:34:43.320 with secure the future or secure our future. Um, and 0:34:43.440 --> 0:34:47.680 you know what will secure our future? Garrison the chevron 0:34:47.719 --> 0:34:53.080 ads that keep popping up. We keep out. Yeah, great, 0:34:53.440 --> 0:35:09.160 you're welcome. It's a great time Chevron appreciators for everyone. Ah, 0:35:09.560 --> 0:35:14.560 we're back. It's just appreciating Chevron just like Justin Trudeau 0:35:14.600 --> 0:35:20.320 appreciate just like Yeah, so secure the future great slogan, 0:35:20.480 --> 0:35:22.839 not a good slogan. Bad. Um. I'm going to read 0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:25.600 a bit from a mailer that went out to Conservative 0:35:25.640 --> 0:35:29.360 Party members after a Tool one leadership quote. I firmly 0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:32.000 believe Canada has everything. It has everything it takes to 0:35:32.040 --> 0:35:35.200 recover from COVID nineteen and enjoy a prosperous future if 0:35:35.280 --> 0:35:37.720 we have a government that knows how to secure the future. 0:35:38.200 --> 0:35:41.359 If the truth, if the Trudeau Liberals stay in power, 0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:44.960 they'll continue spending taxpayer money at pandemic era levels long before, 0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:48.000 long after the virus is behind us. The result, all 0:35:48.080 --> 0:35:50.480 the things we love about Canada will be in serious jeopardy. 0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:52.680 Our debt will become out of control, and they'll never 0:35:52.719 --> 0:35:54.400 be able to get back the Canada you and I 0:35:54.560 --> 0:35:56.920 grew up in the kind of Canada our children and 0:35:57.040 --> 0:36:01.000 grandchildren deserve. So either on in the page, oh, Tool 0:36:01.040 --> 0:36:03.120 says we need to stand up to the Chinese Communist 0:36:03.160 --> 0:36:06.160 Party and hold Beijing accountable for sabotaging our economy and 0:36:06.239 --> 0:36:10.440 taking jobs from Canadian workers. Um. And On August sixteen, 0:36:10.680 --> 0:36:14.320 the Canadian Conservative Party Twitter account tweeted out and I 0:36:14.480 --> 0:36:18.400 quote Canada's recovery program will secure the future for you, 0:36:18.760 --> 0:36:24.719 your children, and your grand and your grandchildren. So that's fun. Also, also, 0:36:24.920 --> 0:36:26.800 guess how many guess guess how many words is in 0:36:26.880 --> 0:36:30.440 that last sentence. It's fourteen of them. Yeah. Yeah, we're 0:36:30.600 --> 0:36:34.480 going back to calling Canada Clanada again. It's like a 0:36:34.640 --> 0:36:37.080 dog whistle, but except for you know, a dog whistle 0:36:37.120 --> 0:36:41.080 only dogs can hear. It's except everyone. It's just a whistle. 0:36:41.320 --> 0:36:44.799 It's just it's just a regular whistle. It's it's it's 0:36:44.840 --> 0:36:49.560 that he just tweeted it tweet. Yeah. So as anyway, 0:36:49.719 --> 0:36:52.520 um as O'Toole was getting all secure the future piled um. 0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:56.040 Canada's actual far right populist party, the People's Party, was 0:36:56.160 --> 0:36:59.840 gaining much more popularity um amid the pandemic and the 0:37:00.000 --> 0:37:04.600 anti mask, anti lockdown, anti vax protests. The COVID nineteen 0:37:04.600 --> 0:37:06.600 pandemic was a gift to the far right in general, 0:37:06.719 --> 0:37:09.680 as it allowed the injection and proliferation of conspiracy theories 0:37:09.719 --> 0:37:12.760 to accelerate at levels almost never before seen and provided 0:37:12.800 --> 0:37:16.320 fair recruiting ground to gain new followers. The PPC latched 0:37:16.360 --> 0:37:18.440 onto this and was extremely successful. They were. You know, 0:37:18.480 --> 0:37:20.880 they sponsored protests, They did a whole bunch of campaigns 0:37:20.960 --> 0:37:23.440 that are around like anti mask stuff, anti vaccine, you know, 0:37:23.520 --> 0:37:26.919 all all of it. Um. So the PPC was able 0:37:27.000 --> 0:37:29.080 to be not just a safe harbor for anti immigration, 0:37:29.160 --> 0:37:31.560 white nationalists and neo Nazis and other far right groups, 0:37:31.800 --> 0:37:34.800 but also now more mainstream anti lockdown, anti vacs and 0:37:34.840 --> 0:37:37.200 anti government protesters as well as you know, gun rights 0:37:37.239 --> 0:37:40.839 activists and some general rule workers feeling left behind from 0:37:40.880 --> 0:37:44.160 even the Conservative Party. So the PPC has changed from 0:37:44.320 --> 0:37:47.080 a niche white nationalist party to a full blown far 0:37:47.239 --> 0:37:50.279 right populist force. What bern Air in the and the 0:37:50.360 --> 0:37:52.480 PPC have done so effectively since the pandemic is to 0:37:52.600 --> 0:37:55.279 use the broad concerns around COVID and freedom and the 0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:58.960 more you know, mainstream concerns about economic anxieties, job loss, 0:37:59.120 --> 0:38:02.360 lots of businesses, immigration and changing culture and manage and 0:38:02.440 --> 0:38:04.319 managed to rule all of these things up into one 0:38:04.480 --> 0:38:06.960 tight package, which is really appealing to a lot of 0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:09.760 Canadians who are very anxious about the state of their country, 0:38:10.320 --> 0:38:14.680 especially amid the COVID nineteen pandemic. So the results of 0:38:14.719 --> 0:38:17.799 the September snap election, which was you know last month, Uh, 0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:20.759 we're basically the same as the election, UM, except the 0:38:20.840 --> 0:38:23.640 PPC went from one point six percent of the vote 0:38:23.640 --> 0:38:26.799 to five percent of the vote, a big, big change, uh. 0:38:27.080 --> 0:38:29.760 They that means they were ranking above the Green Party 0:38:30.080 --> 0:38:33.759 and nearly tying the block kebu Qua. So they made like, 0:38:34.800 --> 0:38:37.080 I know, like one percent of five percent doesn't seem 0:38:37.160 --> 0:38:39.600 like tons, but like this is a really big jump 0:38:39.719 --> 0:38:43.319 for a brand new party, UM, especially especially if they're 0:38:43.320 --> 0:38:45.879 ahead of the Green Party and tying the Block Party. 0:38:45.960 --> 0:38:50.120 That is like a notable shift. UM. The University of 0:38:50.200 --> 0:38:54.120 Ghulaf Professor of of Political Science Tamra Small said that 0:38:54.400 --> 0:38:57.240 said this after the results of the last snap election. Quote, 0:38:57.360 --> 0:38:59.239 I think the only leader who's the static about last 0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:02.000 night's results is or Air. I don't think they're going anywhere. 0:39:02.080 --> 0:39:04.080 I think it seems that he's taken the populism and 0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:06.920 attached to far right politics. The idea that Canada was 0:39:06.960 --> 0:39:09.160 immune to this sort of far right populism, the idea 0:39:09.200 --> 0:39:11.440 that Canada was going to be free from the populism 0:39:11.520 --> 0:39:14.160 that we saw in Europe, like what Nigel Farage is 0:39:14.200 --> 0:39:16.239 in the UK. But I think lots of people are 0:39:16.280 --> 0:39:18.279 wondering if Bernard is just gonna say I'm not here 0:39:18.360 --> 0:39:20.560 to form an actual government. I'm just here to challenge 0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:22.800 the system and use that as a way of gaining 0:39:22.840 --> 0:39:28.200 massive support. Um. After us CTV News emailed the PPC 0:39:28.400 --> 0:39:31.120 for comment for their post election story, uh, the party 0:39:31.160 --> 0:39:35.200 spokesperson sent back a one line email response, I don't 0:39:35.200 --> 0:39:39.760 respond to requests from leftists. Activists masquerading as journalists get lost, 0:39:40.440 --> 0:39:44.160 so that's fun. Also, in late September, Bernard's Twitter account 0:39:44.160 --> 0:39:49.879 was temporarily suspended for encouraging his supporters to attack journalists. Yeah. 0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:53.239 Just not like I'm okay with criticizing journalist and stuff, 0:39:53.239 --> 0:39:55.640 because most journalists are like not great. But when you're 0:39:56.080 --> 0:39:58.719 using your political Twitter account to just like tell people 0:39:58.760 --> 0:40:01.640 to just go attack the US, usually it's a bad 0:40:01.680 --> 0:40:05.080 sign of of like a political party. Usually it's just like, yeah, 0:40:05.160 --> 0:40:08.400 political parties when they do that usually leads to bad things. Um, 0:40:09.000 --> 0:40:12.040 we are gonna talk about one kind of wrapping up here. 0:40:12.040 --> 0:40:15.040 We wanna talk about one Ontario People's Party candidate named 0:40:15.280 --> 0:40:19.279 Mario Greco, who was a another another high school teacher 0:40:19.680 --> 0:40:23.920 UM and self proclaimed game developer UM of a few 0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:27.160 years ago. I I see Chriss Vincent, because like you know, 0:40:27.280 --> 0:40:30.440 this can't lead to good things the gamers, it can't 0:40:30.480 --> 0:40:33.800 be good. So a few years ago, Greco made a 0:40:33.960 --> 0:40:39.240 video game called Happy Culture Shootout UM. Quoting an article 0:40:39.400 --> 0:40:42.560 from Press Progress dot c A Happy Culture Shootout is 0:40:42.600 --> 0:40:44.960 a Space Invaders style game that allows players to control 0:40:45.000 --> 0:40:48.880 spaceship that shoots laser beams at caricatures of various identity groups. 0:40:49.440 --> 0:40:51.600 Quote this game, it's about an alien order to invade 0:40:51.640 --> 0:40:54.479 Earth and transport all humans to happy Land, Greco says 0:40:54.520 --> 0:40:57.200 on his personal website, which includes other games that he authored, 0:40:57.360 --> 0:41:00.160 like Die Mare, which is about a young, misunderstood heuro 0:41:00.239 --> 0:41:05.400 who sees to liberate post war Germany. Um in as 0:41:06.520 --> 0:41:09.080 in a since telated video of obtained by Press Progress, 0:41:09.160 --> 0:41:12.120 the People's Party candidate delivered a presentation to university students 0:41:12.400 --> 0:41:16.440 several years ago, offering his post mortem on the game UM. 0:41:16.719 --> 0:41:21.160 Reco expressed surprise that his students and faculty reacted negatively 0:41:21.239 --> 0:41:23.520 to the game, with one calling it the most racist 0:41:23.600 --> 0:41:26.000 game I've ever played. Greco says his game is not 0:41:26.200 --> 0:41:28.320 racist in the slightest, noting that he made fun of 0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:32.040 his own Italian heritage. He also claimed that some students 0:41:32.080 --> 0:41:36.720 thought his Gay Pride parade level was hilarious. My friends 0:41:36.760 --> 0:41:38.839 and I love people of all cultures, and we also 0:41:38.920 --> 0:41:42.080 love humor of all types that includes harmless racist jokes. 0:41:42.120 --> 0:41:44.759 Greco said in the video. The game was intended to 0:41:44.800 --> 0:41:47.239 make a joke about how ridiculous cultural stereotypes are, so 0:41:47.280 --> 0:41:48.800 we can laugh about it together and move on with 0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:52.360 our lives. Um. During the presentation, the People's Party candidate 0:41:52.520 --> 0:41:56.120 offered a interesting side note about the games Israel level. 0:41:56.760 --> 0:42:00.239 According according to Greco, a faculty member at the University Stroug, 0:42:00.280 --> 0:42:03.239 they recommended that he removed Jewish stereotypes from the game. 0:42:03.480 --> 0:42:05.680 He was like, no, get rid of it immediately. Don't 0:42:05.719 --> 0:42:08.520 have any religious content whatsoever. I know that subject is 0:42:08.640 --> 0:42:12.879 very very touchy. So yeah, this is just a game 0:42:12.920 --> 0:42:15.800 where you race shoe to minority people. Um. Anyway. In 0:42:15.840 --> 0:42:20.040 twenty six Greco posted a photo on Facebook of an 0:42:20.040 --> 0:42:22.600 illustration of Peppe the Frog, which he said was drawn 0:42:22.680 --> 0:42:25.279 by one of his students in in the white board 0:42:25.360 --> 0:42:29.360 of his York Region high school. Um Pepe had a 0:42:29.400 --> 0:42:35.360 little speech bubble that said free Kakistan. Great yea. So 0:42:35.840 --> 0:42:39.960 now the gamers or Nazis. So currently Greco is spending 0:42:40.000 --> 0:42:42.759 his time tweeting about critical race theory and trying to 0:42:42.880 --> 0:42:45.600 get into office under the People's Party banner UM. In 0:42:45.719 --> 0:42:49.680 his Twitter bio, he calls himself an egalitarian, libertarian nationalist 0:42:50.160 --> 0:42:54.719 and he still also teaches computer science at Ontario. Call 0:42:54.840 --> 0:42:59.600 themselves fascists. I know it's it's not fun. These people 0:42:59.640 --> 0:43:04.600 are all all for the worst most scum. UM. And 0:43:04.880 --> 0:43:08.520 one one more thing before we sign off. UM. Last month, 0:43:08.760 --> 0:43:12.200 right before the September election, I was forwarded some pictures 0:43:13.120 --> 0:43:17.120 of some People's Party of Canada posters and flyers put 0:43:17.239 --> 0:43:20.520 up linking to their campaign website that someone came across 0:43:20.840 --> 0:43:24.680 UM around town, not not Portland's, like somewhere in Canada. 0:43:25.160 --> 0:43:29.120 UM under the PPC logo there was you know, pictures 0:43:29.160 --> 0:43:32.479 of people's faces and big black text that said it's 0:43:32.520 --> 0:43:39.280 okay to be white. Right, So that's the liberal utopia 0:43:39.320 --> 0:43:43.759 of Canada. Everybody UM. And basically like the reason why 0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:45.320 I wanted to put these episodes together because like, we 0:43:45.400 --> 0:43:46.600 we have lots of like, you know, we make a 0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:48.640 lot of jokes about you know, escaping to Canada as 0:43:48.640 --> 0:43:50.440 the States gets too fascist, and I just want to 0:43:50.520 --> 0:43:53.200 like say, like I'm not saying Canada's getting at the 0:43:53.239 --> 0:43:56.200 same rate, but Canada is not immune to the same thing. 0:43:56.360 --> 0:44:00.239 Like it's it's it's, it's it's you can't escape, can't 0:44:00.280 --> 0:44:05.239 run away from the authoritarianism by moving, yeah to a 0:44:05.320 --> 0:44:08.480 country with no history of authoritarianism, like I don't know Germany, 0:44:09.200 --> 0:44:12.000 uh huh yeah. And I think everything's important with with 0:44:12.080 --> 0:44:15.239 Canada particularly is that like Canada is like affected by 0:44:15.280 --> 0:44:18.239 American political trends. And you see this absolutely like like 0:44:18.520 --> 0:44:20.279 one of one of the things that I remember looking 0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:21.920 at when I was when I was looking into sort 0:44:21.960 --> 0:44:24.200 of uh if you look at the history of like 0:44:24.280 --> 0:44:26.719 anti Asian riots for example, So there's a huge wave 0:44:26.760 --> 0:44:28.200 and nine no seven that goes like it goes all 0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:29.719 the way up the West coast because a lot of them, 0:44:30.160 --> 0:44:33.600 and it ends in Toronto, Yeah, a lot of you know, yeah, 0:44:33.640 --> 0:44:35.200 and you see you see that like and you see 0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:38.400 that like today to where it's like, yeah, the Toronto 0:44:38.600 --> 0:44:41.400 I think has the highest rate of anti Asian attacks 0:44:41.560 --> 0:44:45.120 like in North America. That's not pretty impressive considering like 0:44:45.640 --> 0:44:48.319 the absolute ship show going on in like New York, 0:44:49.000 --> 0:44:52.320 in la and Seattle, and it's like, no, Toronto's worse, No, 0:44:52.719 --> 0:44:56.880 it's real bad. I talk a lot about how the 0:44:56.960 --> 0:44:59.280 far right's getting a lot, a lot, a lot stronger 0:44:59.320 --> 0:45:02.120 of an luce in Alberta, and it is spreading into 0:45:02.200 --> 0:45:05.120 other eastern eastern provinces, not just inside Quebec. You know, 0:45:05.239 --> 0:45:07.359 there was the inside attack in Toronto a few years 0:45:07.400 --> 0:45:09.279 ago that killed like I think like a dozen people. 0:45:09.840 --> 0:45:12.600 Of course, there was the Quebec mosque shooting. There's been 0:45:12.640 --> 0:45:14.800 a lot of these kind of things popping off, and 0:45:15.000 --> 0:45:17.359 you know there's there's even more starting in like, uh, 0:45:17.719 --> 0:45:20.200 British Columbia as well, which is which has a decent 0:45:20.360 --> 0:45:22.880 far right kind of influence at least on the eastern 0:45:22.960 --> 0:45:28.200 side of BC, um away from like Victoria and from Vancouver. UM. 0:45:28.680 --> 0:45:30.719 So yeah, I just wanted to place together and be like, hey, 0:45:30.800 --> 0:45:32.920 you know, it's it's worth looking at these countries that 0:45:32.960 --> 0:45:35.719 we usually view as you know, generally doing better and 0:45:35.840 --> 0:45:38.439 be like no, like, it's the same thing is happening there, 0:45:38.520 --> 0:45:41.080 and it's all it's all part of the same overarching 0:45:41.239 --> 0:45:44.160 slide right word that we've seen in both in the 0:45:44.320 --> 0:45:47.000 UK we were even seeing it now in Germany we're 0:45:47.040 --> 0:45:49.279 seeing it, you know in this obviously the States under 0:45:49.320 --> 0:45:52.160 Trump and in Canada, even though the Liberals have won 0:45:52.239 --> 0:45:56.239 the past few elections, it's still scooting right word. So yeah, 0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:58.400 I just wanted to put this thing together. If you 0:45:58.440 --> 0:46:00.239 want to keep up to date on Canadian stuff, you 0:46:00.320 --> 0:46:03.359 can check out the Canadian Antihit network, which does work 0:46:03.440 --> 0:46:08.040 tracking extremism in Canada.
