BC Politics -Blackmail edition

Internet saying, well, you know, yeah, Carolyn Finley's failed as this and that and that. It doesn't really matter because the BC conservative members have voted for her to be the leader. I know it's uncomfortable for you. Caroline Elliott did not win or whoever else you wanted on your liberal side of the equation. Yesterday we had Peter Millibar and Sturco, two MLA's here decided they're going to do this center BC. Also, what's center BC? Okay, they're going to drop all the social conservatism and they're going to go straight for fiscal conservatism. And this is a quote, unquote moderate party, a center party. This is a little bit of a problem here. We need to attend to some pretty big social problems as well. We have Soji123 here, which is basically gender, care, trans, whatever kids, la la la, a bunch of other things that are concerning to a bunch of people. So we're going to have to like, you know, get our stuff in line here in BC Canada. And it's my proposition, which I said in the prior space. I will put the link in the replies here once I get off the mic here is, you know, perhaps the problem with BC and why the politics out here are so bizarre is that everyone's stoned. You know, like, is that the problem? Is everyone just too goddamn stoned out here? I mean, I live here. You know, I'm all into entertaining fairy talk and crystals and astrology and tarot cards and all the rest of it. But I mean, maybe this has something to do with it. So I see a bunch of smarty pants is in the room. Thanks for grabbing a mic there, there BC barricade. I know that you're busy with your kids. Feel free to pop in at any time. Please retweet the room, guys. Like, this is another thing that happens on the conservative side of the thing, either now or in the future. If you listen to the recording and you get some value, like, we're going to have to actually figure out how to group up. I know it's just tasteful. And we're also critical thinking that we want to attack each other and all the rest of it. And I'm fine with that happening in this room. But we're going to have to figure out a little bit of network effect. Otherwise, we're kind of hooped. So I'll yield the mic there. Tremor outdoors has asked to speak. So I'll give you a mic there, buddy. Anybody else that wants a mic? And I'm hoping that some of the big wigs come in, but maybe not. It was failed conservative experiment. We'll see. It's up to you. Hashtag freedom fingers. They're tremor. And a no go. So basically, we are going to have apathetic. We are not going. We've got to, we've got guys. Like, what do you want me to do here? You want me to talk for two hours? I'm just going to offend everybody. And I'll probably be a lost leader for you. So. Sorry, is the microphone working now? Yeah, there you go. Go ahead. Sure. Yeah, I just wanted to start off with the aspects of, we had this democratic election process with the party. And if we can even really call it that, I mean, there was so many things that were thrown into the mix with the verification process that caused, what was it? And these were a code of probably tell it that it's probably around 40% or there are votes of the membership who opted to not participate in the vote. And let's be frank, like a lot of those would be your sort of stalwart conservatives that's basically. You're your anti anti vaccine anti health anti COVID pandemic. Grassroots movement that built the BC Conservatives were basically excluded because they required digital ID and some rumors of two bank statements and an official picture of your actual ID. And it gets run through an American company that's then subject to domestic homeland security, which means all of your information could be leaked out. So they basically took all of the grassroots out of the equation, almost right out of the gate, tremor. Good point. Yeah, keep on going. And so you directly influenced, in my opinion, the potential outcome of the election. And looking at it from the perspective of, you know, there was this whole narrative put out there as far as a quote unquote purity test, which was absolute nonsense. It was not a purity test as far as, you know, you being a conservative. But we can look at who governed as a conservative and who governed as a liberal. And at the end of the day, in my opinion, the whole thing was skewed to really derail the Finley camp from from winning the leadership right from the start. There was all kinds of things chronologically that you look at, even to the alleged investigation of the elections Canada, and that smear campaign that was done shortly before the election date. There were so many different things that happened. And now, you know, what I find most disconcerting here is that our politics now has gone into a stage where we're seeing things being said like resign now or the tape of your husband gets dropped. I don't know what the content is of it. I don't care what the content of it is. If there's something in there that they figure is bad enough or illegal, then the proper process for them to do is to take it to the police and have the police investigate. But to do a message of do this or this will happen, that is blackmail, that is extortion. And we cannot condone that for two seconds. That has to be stomped on immediately because theoretically, let's say that that Finley decides, you know what, I'm going to step aside. There's nothing stopping them from dropping the audio two days later. And it goes back to the whole thing of the Americans have the policy of, you know, we do not negotiate with terrorists. Why is that? You know, you encourage further terrorism because you know, you negotiated with the ones that cause the problem and it just breeds on itself. So I really wanted to touch on that tonight because I'm really, really absolutely disgusted by what's going on in Canada with our politics. I'm disgusted what's going on provincially within our politics of people being saboteurs, people saying that they're this when they're that, everything to get a vote, everything to get power, everything to get money. And what's really happening is that the public keeps eating the problem from the media that is toxic and not the truth to keep this going in our countries in a really bad situation. So I'll leave that out there for everybody. I wish everybody well and I thank you for letting me speak on that. Okay, Trevor, are you from BC? Just a quick question here. I'm open, so sorry. Okay, perfect. So, so am I. I'm going to follow you back first and then I'm just going to let you know that there is a group chat that we're starting to assemble down below in the replies. You can just click on that, hit ask to join, you'll get approved eventually and then you can join the group chat. We're going to have to group up here guys. I mean, in the left, this is without question on the right, it's like, well, I don't know. Wogpog said a bad word during that space. Can we purely spiral on this? All leftist ideology. We're going to have to pull thumb and get going. I agree with almost every, like pretty much everything you just said. And I think the digital ID thing was a way to exclude the grassroots that built this. We saw this since Rustad got in. It was an immediate grassroots exclusion. We've heard some of the people that were the most poignant on the island actually being excluded from the leadership review thing. Well, two buses of newcomers came that barely spoke English or at English at all, came in, voted for Rustad, aided donut, got back on the bus and went. And we know from their financials at this cost about 150 grand. So are we going to do the Daniel Smith here? Are we going to larp this? We have a capability here of building a conservative thing. And it comes back to the question. I want to ask you this one question before we go to Barakud, I see her hand up. But this one question, tremor. What did appeal appears here? Is it Carolyn Finley? Is a former minister on the federal? She's part of the privy council of Canada because she was a minister in the federal government. So it appears like we're making a tie between the federal and the provincial. And like the NDP has always been tied to the federal and I think now they're backing off, fit or whatever. But the conservative party may be starting this. And then we saw almost an identical strategy deployed in BC to box us in an allowed conversation of debate. Oh, Pierre can't say anything towards the agreement because then he would repro maga or he can't move this way because he's boxed into this allowed spectrum of debate. And so we're seeing the federal liberal strategies of how to box in conservatives being applied it provincially here. And at this point, and I'm just going to say it out right here, like you did, we're essentially talking about blackmail now, right? And remember, democratically elected leader of the party, okay? And we have this contingent, the BC liberals, whatever, call them BC united, but they used to be called, it doesn't matter to distance themselves from it. The concept here is they are not big tempting here. They forced a rust ad even though we were pissed, we were ticked off about the about the leadership thing that I just talked about. And I said he's already sunk, he sunk himself right there. But now the same people taking a rust ad are now kicking out Carolyn Finley. Well, who the hell are these people? And are we doing a, are we doing democracy or not? Because if we're not doing democracy, I'm fine with that. Just tell me that this is what we're doing, but don't larp as a democratic provincial party or whatever they're trying to do. We're taking our toys and going home, if you will. Guys, grab mics, retweet the room. Let's freaking go. We've got to build this thing really big and really quick because we don't have time for this crap of like, you know, purity spires on the right tremor. What do you think? Yeah, I would agree with you on that. I think that's, you know, there's, there's, let's be honest, Paulio and Finley are disruptors. And what I mean by that, I'm going to qualify that statement is that they do not support the status quo that the liberal side wants to have happen. They're, they're more conservative on the fiscal side, they're more conservative on the social side. And that completely derails the agenda that the left has. So what have they done? Well, they effectively created a narrative about Paulio. If you look at it, it's a constant. A stream of information about, you know, how, how big of a jerk Paulio is, how incompetent he is, how much he is, he's like another Donald Trump. What did they do with Carrie Lynn Finley? I mean, let's be honest, who hasn't had a positive thing happen where you do a little dance of joy? And all of a sudden her little dance at the end was the Trump dance. And she's maple mug and all the rest of the tired labels. At the end of the day, they're using that because the liberal government, federally and the media have done a fantastic job of brainwashing the public into believing that, you know, Trump's bad, the Americans are enemies, which is the craziest thing I've ever heard of my life. I honest to God, I mean, it's like I look out the sky and I'm looking at green sky and blue grass because it makes no sense to the direction of our country. What they've done is they've done a really good job at creating that narrative to bring them down and put in fear that Finley is going to be another Trump. She's a racist. I mean, the whole comment about her being a racist, first of all, stems back to the debate and where she questioned the issue of the disclosure document of Peter Milibar and his listed potential conflict of interest. She even said for the record, I'm not concerned about your family, I'm concerned about your potential conflict of interest. At no point did she mention anything about race. That was a narrative added after the fact by Peter Milibar and by Ian Black and then the media ran fit. So at the end of the day. The worded Milibar finished in the leadership race. Trammer just remind me. Yeah, I think it was fifth out of five. So, you know, I mean, dead last. Dead last. Right? You know, lead a party and lead a party to victory against the NDP. Good luck. He couldn't even win a leadership race within a party. So at the end of the day, this is where I'm saying is that they're doing these huge smear campaigns because they can't risk the change happening and derailing their agendas. And it's horrific, man. Like I look at what's going on. I look what's going on with our country and our province. And it's like, I mean, I'm 59 years old. Like grew up, I'm born and raised in Vancouver here, lower mainland. And I don't recognize it anymore with all the changes that have gone on. And people don't seem to get it that you can't keep going into debt and come out of it. We've got diesel prices the other day in in clovery out in so serious area was 310 a liter. I've heard it from a very good contact of mine in business that diesel is going to $4.00 a liter. Our country runs on diesel, whether the, whether the liberals and the greens like it or not, that's the case. And so my caution to everybody go out and stock up on food supplies because the prices at the grocery store and all year of the commodities are going to go through the roof that the truckers can't do it. Take a look at a posting. I don't know if anybody follows Chris Barber, a big red machine or wherever it is. The truck driver from Alberta, he posted a video yesterday or the day before. He has historically had a line of credit of $20,000 a week to run his trucks fleet for diesel. A couple of months ago, he went to fuel up, was declined. He had maxed out in that week already.
