I think he was trying to say "gagged" but it does sound like "gay" lol
-
... You might be right. He has a weird accent, and if he pronounced the 'a' like an American and swallowed the 'gg' ...
Or maybe that's the secret do defeating the Conservatives? "We can totally make an LNG pipeline to the coast, but ... err ... that would make you all pretty gay."
-
Re-watching it, and yeah, has to be gagged. If you listen closely, there's a small "click" after what at first sounds like "gay", which is likely an "ed" sound.
-
It reminds me of my teacher from northern Wisconsin that would say words like "bag" and "flag" as "bayg" and "flayg". She would say "back" and "flack" like you'd expect but for some reason "-ag" words got the different vowel
-
-
He definitely says "gagged". This post is ridiculous.
-
This response is pretty gay, imo.
-
-
-
He obviously misspoke but that's hilarious
-
This and referring to everyone on stage as "contestants" were both pretty funny.
-
The term is Freudian slip. And Carney’s reaction means he knows; they all know 🙃
-
Wow. Just silliness. The only residual discussion after the debate is "Did he say 'gay' or 'gagged'?"
Says a lot about the importance of the debate in the overall election.
-
Think I read some study several years back (probably following the Trump-Clinton one) that concluded almost everyone always perceives their "team's" candidate as having won the debate, and the number of voters swayed by a stellar performance from another candidate is negligible.
Yeah, they're pretty damn pointless...
-
Except the news media thinks they are, so we will probably continue to have them, if not just for the entertainment value. They fill in some of the 'air time'.

can someone explain this to me?
-
Canadian leadership debate tonight, guy on the right is carney, guy on the left is Pierre Polievere or PP.
Carney asked about PP's refusal to get a security clearance despite being leader of the opposition in parliament. PP was stumbling in his response.
-
It's a slip up on PPs part. He's trying to say gagged but either due to getting the thought from his brain to his mouth getting mixed up, or just slipping up on the word It sounds much more like gay.
-
freudian slip.
-
ah ok

-
Gagged. Are you all really hearing gay or is this a big troll?
-
I heard gay on my first viewing. After playing it again I picked up on what he was actually trying to say. I think k it's something along the lines of mondegreen where you can hear the wrong words in songs.
-
Not a troll. I heard it when I watched live and didn't figure out he meant gagged until he said it a second time. Listening to it again I can hear it either way, his pronunciation at the end is just a little off.

-
PP is gay, make it known to his shitty conservative voters pls.
-
They see him as a strongman. You won't have any luck with this.
-
I think that's why conaervatives like PP but not JT.
Conservatives want to be the bottom so they don't like leaders they can fuck but rather prefer leaders who can fuck them.
-

-
Holy shit guys. I need to get my security clearance!
-
Every accusation is a confession...
Seriously, probably meant to say gagged, and failed miserably. I still think it's a shit excuse.
-
As far as Pierres response, is it okay that the Liberal cabinet encouraged people to ship the opposition off to China to be prosecuted for tweeting against the Chinese government while in Canada, and does it seem like the people with the clearance havent done much to fight the active involvement by China?
You even have his replacement being linked to China which is a little suspicious, makes me what whats up with this riding:
-
Liberal cabinet
Stopped reading there. You know why.
For everyone else who doesn't. They're lying through their teeth. It was a random MP. Not the Liberal cabinet.
-
At this point, this clip is the entirety of the debate that I've seen, but I will say two things about this general issue.
If your argument is that his opponents are doing shitty things so it's okay if he does shitty things, take a look through history or south of our border to see how that ends up. And I've never seen Pierre give a real alternative to any issue he's identified, whether those issues are real or not. The few stances he's taken are usually tired conservative agendas that have failed every time they've been tried, yet he drags their mummified remains onto the stage, dusts them off, and pretends that it's a novel idea that will solve the issue it's targeted at with a single step. Mandatory minimum sentencing? This is a primarily punitive measure that ignores the main issues with our prison system, that it is overloaded by people who have little hope for a better future and few options besides crime for anything but the most meager of existences. But sure, longer sentences will fix that. No? Well, at least it's something that can happen in one term. And that's representative of every 'idea' he puts forward. An alternative whose only merit is the thinnest veneer of emotional relief to charged topics and not enough depth or nuance to actually address the problem, let alone solve it.

Did PP's wife (who is present in way too high a percentage of his publicity material) know about this in advance? 🤣
-
He just took a drink of water too. Imagine if Carney had done a spit take.
-
He needs the Forrest Gump "d" in there.
-
He obviously said gagged. It literally sounds more like gagged than gay even if he did mispronounce.
-
I agree it's obvious he meant to say "gagged", but it absolutely sounds like he said "gay".
-
Yeah he said it like Gaygd

Can we get a link?
-
It's a 17 second video…
-
Weird, Voyager is just displaying it as an image. Opening it in Firefox linked me to the Imgur video.
My bad!
