Erin O’Toole is fair, honest, and sees both sides. He doesn’t trust social media, calls out Russia & China, and cares more about Canada than his ego. That’s why in today’s polarized and ignorant landscape he was sidelined and we have the lesser leaders we do today. I lean liberal but I voted for Erin in a heartbeat because he put ppl and the country first.
@@TheGoodShepherd117 This is the kind of hubris the left has. “You people are too stupid if I don’t have the skills to convince you of my point” … this is why you will continue to lose in every election going forward.
O'tool wouldve been a good leader, ex military. Centrist with slight right lean, not as partisan. Probably the right candidate for the world thats slowly forming when you need a little beefier defense budget.
The CBC and liberal media hated Erin and saw too it that he get destroyed. Erin was too polite to fight back, and lost. . That is why he got dumped as leader.
@TheGoodShepherd117 You made a wise choice. It's an interesting realization given the media would suggest Poilievre is the one sewing division. The individual Canadians shouldn't trust. What you see in Liberal strategy is a post-national view that cares little about national identity and feeds into individual identity. The intent is to form sub-groups grounded in grievance and oppression. This creates massive division. The Liberal attacks on OToole mask the grander narrative at work.

@@garrethikes couldn’t agree more. Are there still Progressive Conservatives out there? I fear the angry mob of haters has become the new Conservative Party.
The jump from O'Toole to Poilievre is just like the Republican party jump from Mitt Romney to Donald Trump. I have been saying that both Canada and the U.S need to have two right-wing party, the CPC for moderate conservatives and the PPC for the MAG/CA. And in the U.S it could be the Liberterian party for moderates and then the Republican party

I supported O'Toole when he ran (and won) the leadership in 2020. But with all his flip-flopping in terms of the carbon tax and gun laws I'm glad that he's gone and I'm happy that Poilievre is now leader. But listening to this, there is no doubt that, despite his flaws as leader, O'Toole definitely seems like an intelligent and rational person who cares about Canada. Thanks for this podcast.
I think Erin should run for the Liberal Party and return the party to the centre. Let the NDP be the party of the far left. Although I’m not a Liberal, I’d really like the country to have some good and competent leadership of the political centre. Nate, you are a smart guy…I don’t always agree with you…but you certainly offer something more than socks and ahs ers and umms.
Thank you for hosting a candid, open discussion. I enjoyed listening to this conversation. Particularly liked hearing about the real perspective of political operatives re: their base as it explains some wackier moments with leaders.
This is a great discussion and much appreciated. I do not agree with the views on foreign interference. I am more worried about the socialistic aspect of criminal elitist politicians running our society in a tyranical way. We need ethical free capitalism and the development of a headless state that is run by the people, for the people. We have a bloated democracy that leaves Canadians in last place. Food, housing, education, and healthcare are rights, not privileges. Serving is a privilege and should be done so at minimum wage. I have developed a political theory that does all this and more, it is called Unified Law Theory - the book is available and would love a chance to talk about this with intelligent leaders like these two men. We can do better and voting for the same five fingers on one hand will only result in the same problems we already have and tyranny by an elitist few at the top. We need a real change and an accountable system - ULT is the future of democracy!
Poilievre versus O'Toole. Notice how Erin praises Freeland and then proceeds to totally destroy her and highlight her complete incompetence. Poilivere is straightforward. Rather than create dissonance, his statements are clear: "Freeland is incompetent - here's why ..."
People want simple. Other side all bad, our side has the answers. That's not a good thing. Even if Poilievre turns the country around he's damaged the fabric of our politics.
@timburris234 wow really? Interesting. Justin Trudeau has mastered the politic of identity. He is the femenist PM. He is the virtuous PM that emphasizes LGBTQS and ethnic division Damage? He is the PM that advocates putting children on a path to a sex change. Poilievre causing damage? Have you had the courage to walk at night in the core of some of Canada's major cities? As you make it past the drug infested tent cities, you will come across petty theft and swarm shop lifting.
Nate I have said this prior and say again. You’re the 50/50 MP. 50% there for Canadians and 50% there for party or personal politics. For ex: You understand Canadians see the GST cuts for what they are and have the courage to say it! On the other side you will attend committee and engage is obstructive emotional behaviour. It is like you’re two different people and not there to represent Canadians. Im sharing this because you’re one of only a few Liberals who have a future with the party & ability to be in a leadership position. Let’s see the parties stacked with talent so our Gov is forced to be elite. I hope you see this and take the feedback as a positive.
I will never forgive Trudeau for how he treated this man. Erin was a good man who did not sway to the extremists in his party, he even had a type of carbon tax in his plan. He refrained from calling Trudeau names or blaming him for things out of his control. Trudeau thanked Erin by lying and saying he was an anti-vaxxer. He divided the conservatives so much that they ran to a guy who did say anti-vax things.
Hand it to Nate, he is honest when it comes to "fix the budget." Justin doesn't understand what it means either. He is still waiting for it to balance by itself.
Good conversation... Want to add that I think why Trudeau was so popular in 2015 when he first ran was also because he said he would do voter reform so "every vote would count" and many Canadians thought that meant we would finally get some form of mixed-member proportional representation... But of course they wanted ranked ballot because the most centrist parties benefit from it and then he broke his promise when it because clear that wasn't going to cut it. This country desperately needs electoral reform and a party that actually believes in something. Because right now the options are fascism or parties with no real platform.
After this interview (while I appreciate open, calm and honest conversation), I understand O’Toole much better. I am thankful he is no longer the leader of the party. Our society and culture have changed dramatically. For instance, if you are on the prosecuting end of an ethics or fraud case, you eventually sadly realize that the general societal atmosphere of yesteryear no longer exists. In our day, (surprise surprise) ethics ‘have to be taught’ and generally that doesn’t happen. I believe that O’Toole is living in the past; it shows in his approach to things. He is naive.
Mr. Erskine-Smith’s foul mouthed screed toward Rick Perkins in parliament was rude and unacceptable, so I’m shocked that my former party leader could reward such unparliamentary behaviour by giving Nate an interview. Do better Erin.
Nathan isn’t embarrassed because he aligns with Trudeau quite well. All party MPs are corrupt and incompetent. Trudeau got rid of the ones that weren’t corrupt and were honest:Jody Wilson-Raybould, Celina Caesar-Chavannes, Jane Philpot, etc.
Erin O'Toole would not have implemented the kinds of changes required to improve the country. Namely, he would not slash public servant jobs, he would not slash funding to the ultra-biased CBC, and would not prioritize growth and productivity over monetary policy whuch offers short term poltiical gains.
I agree with O’Toole that Gladiator 2 was a good movie. Lol he gave it 7/10 because like most he thinks the first movie didn’t need a sequel to begin with.😂😂
Would be nice…however, this is not the a liberal party of the past. It is Trudeau’s cult. A narcissist like Trudeau would never be able to have a civil discussion that may have him taking some responsibility, etc. Trudeau is simply incapable. It is a narcissists way or the highway.
Stephen Harper didn’t have a hidden agenda? He cut the escalator floor clause for future Healthcare Transfers to the Provinces from 6% under Paul Martin to 3%. O’Toole literally campaigned on restoring the 6%. Harper also raised the OAS eligibility age to 67 from 65 and refused to negotiate CPP reform with the Provinces basically hinting at raising the overall Canadian retirement age to 67 as well.😂
I mean this with all respect. But this convo is exactly why o’toole lost. Placating as the other side and him are both reasonable and refusing to differentiate himself in any real way from the other side. All while ignoring the constant snips from the other side
I think you just touched on a signifigant point and that is talking "to the" different groups! The party system (all parties) and press are lecturing and selling instead of listening!
The more I look into canadian politics, the more I realize that nobody in canadian politics (with exception of Pierre) actually gives a damn about real every day people. It seems like Trudeau, Singh, Erskine Smith, O'toole, etc absolutely despise us. Oct 25 cannot come soon enough!
@SlanginTheBizkitPodcastClips Stick to being a washed up goalie, you bum 😂 As if Pierre, the career politician since he was 24/guy who’s never had a real job outside of politics, knows the struggle of everyday people.
I agree with you politicians leaders do not care about their constituents this includes PP. 10 years ago you would have said the same about the liberals. “no party except liberals care about people”. you would have been heavily mistaken 10 years ago about JT and you are heavily mistaken if you think PP cares he is in it for the power thats it.
If Poilievre was leader in the previous election he would have lost as well, maybe harder. The Liberals aren't in free fall because of Poilievre. They're in free fall because people have had enough of them and want change, and there's nowhere else for people who want change to look, because the NDP are propping the Liberals up so they're also a vote for more of the same. Once things got back to normal post-pandemic, voters in every G7 country started looking to turf their governments. Italy turfed their technocrats in favour of Meloni. France handed Macron's party a loss, he himself may lose when he comes up for re-election. Japan's government lost its parliamentary majority. Germany's governing SPD are polling in the basement. UK Tories just got shellacked, so I don't think it's a left-right thing even though it manifests that way in many countries. And of course Biden's hand-picked successor just lost to Trump. I think the message is that post-pandemic, voters are feeling the crunch and want something different.
He was a leader who wouldn't cave to the worst of the CPC membership: conspiracy theorists and covid truthers. The current CPC leader doesn't share that quality with Erin
You have all the power of the Canadian federal government at your disposal. The catch is that the entire population is all just subsistence farmers. What do you do?

Yes, quite the Mr potty mouth snooty tooty crud eater. These people don’t realize it’s their mightier than thow attitude that is making them lose. There used to be a time when politicians looked forward to try to convince you with arguments to take their side … now these same liberals look down on Canadians because they can’t convince us of things that just don’t make any darn sense.
@@rc-wj5ur wiser words have never been spoken. Folks on the left will keep losing until they realize that politics is about addition and not division. Their habit of yelling at (Erskine-Smith, Arif Virani and Marc Miller) or talking down to (Chrystia Freeland, Adam van Koeverden, Jagmeet Singh and the Prime Minister) those who disagree with them will cause more resentment and make them unelectable for a long time.
My god! Thank you Erin Otoole for reminding me that I voted for you, believed in you! Than watched as you completely sold out all conservatives by walking lockstep with Justin
You mean following the science and not committing a genocide like Trump in the US or Doug Ford in overseeing long term care homes in Ontario during the pandemic. BIPOC people disproportionately died of COVID both at work or in public during the pandemic.
Why do you guys like these people? They vote themselves massive pay raises every year, including a 100% single-year jump from around the year 2000, a 100% pay raise, no joke.

And none of them speak out about how illogical it is to be the ones deciding how much taxpayers are paying for your "public service".
As if the guy who’s only had a government job since he was 24 is going to be any better 🤦🏻♂️
are my taxes paying for this bull shit?
no why would you think that?
Sorry but parading around in red heels isn't the kind of leadership we need.
Y’all boomers need some timestamps ain’t no way im watching all that
Ah yes the ADD generation, no wonder we are in trouble.
150% agree: NO ANONYMITY. Anywhere!
How can you TELL what's Russian disinformation online, for example? How do you know whom to trust, which writers, which history, etc.
