Transcript

00:00:00.000 Tonight, a Canadian immigration judge was so moved by a Somali man's confession of brutal
00:00:05.360 violence that he let him into Canada because he was just so honest.
00:00:11.100 It's December 13th and this is The Ezra LeVance Show.
00:00:18.740 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:00:22.600 There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer.
00:00:26.300 You come here once a year with a sign and you feel morally superior.
00:00:29.280 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my
00:00:34.300 bloody right to do so.
00:00:39.700 I can't believe this story and I also can't believe it actually appeared on Justin Trudeau's
00:00:45.180 CBC state broadcaster.
00:00:47.220 I guess even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
00:00:50.720 It's this one.
00:00:52.420 Botched handling of gangster refugee claimant exposes Canada's screening weakness.
00:00:59.280 is the headline.
00:01:02.560 But don't worry, they did find an expert to say it almost never happens and you shouldn't worry.
00:01:08.120 The sub-headline says, rare but growing problem needs to be addressed, expert says.
00:01:15.000 Thank God for experts, right?
00:01:16.280 I wouldn't know what to think without them telling me what to think.
00:01:20.080 But back to the main story.
00:01:21.580 Let me read a little bit of it.
00:01:22.660 But Abdullahi Hashifera's candid confession about his gangster past clearly impressed the
00:01:29.520 Immigration and Refugee Board officer who presided over his first detention hearing on November
00:01:34.560 1st, 2017.
00:01:36.940 Say what?
00:01:37.920 Sure, sure, he was a gangster.
00:01:40.500 Sure, he led a life of violence and crime.
00:01:42.940 Sure, he was on the run from police.
00:01:45.880 But he was just so honest about it.
00:01:48.700 I just really felt like we had this close connection.
00:01:52.520 Caught while crossing the border illegally near Emerson, Manitoba, the 27-year-old Somali citizen readily
00:02:02.520 told the Canada Border Services Agency, CBSA, officers he had an extensive criminal record,
00:02:10.200 had been a Somali outlaws gang member in Minneapolis, and was fleeing an arrest warrant for parole violation.
00:02:19.240 Oh, wow.
00:02:22.140 All that's missing were a bunch of, you know, FBI cars speeding behind him with the flashing lights.
00:02:27.660 A few things here.
00:02:29.500 As you know, as a matter of fact, as a matter of laws, a matter of common sense,
00:02:33.960 if you are in the United States, you are no longer a refugee.
00:02:37.860 So you can't apply for refugee status here in Canada.
00:02:41.220 Same way the other round, too.
00:02:42.080 You're safe now.
00:02:43.700 There's no ethnic cleansing in Canada and the United States.
00:02:45.920 No one in either of our two countries is in imminent danger because of their race or religion or whatever.
00:02:50.460 That's actually the U.N. definition of a refugee.
00:02:52.660 Not just someone who wants to come here to run away from the cops or something.
00:02:56.880 So it's impossible for this to have been real at all.
00:02:59.760 The safe third-party treaty, we just showed it on the screen there, says so.
00:03:03.060 No such thing as a refugee from America or vice versa.
00:03:05.620 But again, he's been in the U.S. for years.
00:03:10.280 As a gang member.
00:03:12.180 Committing crimes.
00:03:12.940 He's been convicted.
00:03:13.840 I don't know why Donald Trump hasn't deported him, given that he's not an American citizen.
00:03:17.860 So he's wanted by cops down there.
00:03:19.980 Who knows?
00:03:20.380 Maybe Trump was trying to deport him.
00:03:21.920 So the only bigger suckers around are, well, us here in Canada.
00:03:25.940 I'll read some more.
00:03:26.920 Farrah, however, insisted he had only been a gang member for two years and had quit the criminal life eight years earlier.
00:03:37.260 Yeah, no, he's a drug dealer.
00:03:39.000 He's a gun smuggler.
00:03:40.120 He trafficked for pedophiles, effectively kidnapping girls as young as 12 years old, home robberies, stolen property, credit card fraud.
00:03:49.180 But because he was so honest, I mean, he's such an honest child predator.
00:03:54.180 He's such an honest drug dealer, really.
00:03:56.400 He's got a heart of gold, people.
00:03:58.020 Well, it's unbelievable.
00:04:01.140 It really is the stuff of comedy if it weren't real 12-year-old girls that he was setting up to be raped.
00:04:06.980 If it weren't real homes he were breaking into.
00:04:09.680 I mean, you really have to laugh.
00:04:11.640 This gangster, he was so honest.
00:04:14.040 I just think he's so wonderful.
00:04:17.020 Here's a 20-second clip from a kid's movie.
00:04:19.940 A kid's movie.
00:04:22.240 That has the statement storyline as a joke.
00:04:25.580 Chuck!
00:04:26.320 Share your story with Red.
00:04:28.100 Me?
00:04:28.460 I am the last guy who should be here.
00:04:30.340 Simple speeding ticket.
00:04:31.740 Judge tells me I was going too fast.
00:04:32.900 So I say, Your Honor, to be honest?
00:04:34.960 I was.
00:04:35.580 You caught me.
00:04:36.360 I'm not angry.
00:04:37.160 I'm honest.
00:04:37.840 So, shouldn't I be an honesty management class?
00:04:40.320 Because we gotta manage my honesty.
00:04:43.160 We gotta, I don't got a problem with crime, Your Honor.
00:04:45.620 I just, I just got too much honesty.
00:04:47.920 We gotta, we gotta handle that.
00:04:50.180 Yeah.
00:04:51.020 Abdullahi Hashifera, his real crime is that he's just so honest.
00:04:56.200 Now, that clip was from a jokey kid's movie, but the real joke is Trudeau's Immigration and Refugee Board.
00:05:00.700 And the judge who said that, his name is Trent Cook.
00:05:06.800 What a disgrace he is.
00:05:09.040 He's obviously incompetent for the job.
00:05:11.340 If he had any respect for us, let alone self-respect, he would resign in disgrace.
00:05:17.340 But I can assure you, he won't.
00:05:19.860 I mean, Justin Trudeau and Ahmed Hassan themselves say it.
00:05:23.680 There is now a human right to immigrate to Canada for foreigners, especially for young men who are as honest as this thug is.
00:05:32.460 Let me read some more.
00:05:33.440 And again, it really is a miracle that any of this was published on the state broadcaster.
00:05:37.280 It's almost as shocking to me as the story itself.
00:05:39.560 Let me read some more.
00:05:40.180 At the detention hearing, the Board of Services, that's the CBSA, strongly recommended Farrah be detained just a few more days until it received his full criminal record from the U.S.
00:05:50.980 But Immigration and Refugee Board member Trent Cook clearly placed more weight on Farrah's admission about his background than the agency's suspicion about the degree of his criminality.
00:06:02.240 One of the biggest factors to play in your particular situation is your character, Cook said.
00:06:08.180 In my estimation, you're probably one of the most honest detainees I have ever come across.
00:06:16.440 I love you.
00:06:18.940 Oh, sorry, I added that part.
00:06:20.100 Noting Farrah had acted contrary to his own interests by offering up his criminal history and gang ties.
00:06:26.520 What this indicates to me is that you are, based on your character and behavior, very likely to pursue all of your immigration and manners from Canada with the same diligence and honesty as you have demonstrated in your interview.
00:06:41.200 Say afterwards, you want to go for a drink or something?
00:06:43.380 I don't know, just spend some alone time, you and me.
00:06:46.380 I don't know, maybe get an apartment together.
00:06:47.800 I'm just going crazy here, I know.
00:06:52.520 I made up the last part about getting a drink together, but the rest of it was not made up.
00:06:56.640 That really is what the immigration judge said.
00:06:59.100 Trent Cook is his name.
00:07:00.960 What a public danger he is.
00:07:02.600 Trent Cook, I mean.
00:07:03.740 I mean, obviously, Abdullahi Hashifara is a public danger, too.
00:07:07.340 But Trent Cook, let him in.
00:07:10.720 Okay, so that was last year.
00:07:14.580 What did this outstanding, honest crook do when he got in?
00:07:18.600 Let me quote.
00:07:19.360 Seven months later, on June 11th, 2018, Edmonton police arrested Farrah in a Walmart parking lot in northeast Edmonton, overdosing and beaten badly from two previous fights.
00:07:30.500 He struggled with police and paramedics before becoming unresponsive.
00:07:34.420 Nearby, police found a dumped getaway car that had been used in a string of armed convenience store robberies.
00:07:43.260 Farrah became a suspect when a CBSA officer in Winnipeg picked him out of robbery photos taken from security camera footage.
00:07:50.580 Police won't say why Farrah is no longer a suspect of the armed robberies.
00:07:55.280 I guess he's just so damn honest.
00:07:56.800 But he remains in the Edmonton Remand Center awaiting deportation to Somalia after exhausting all legal avenues to stay in the country.
00:08:05.380 This is so gross.
00:08:06.680 This is so gross.
00:08:07.820 Now multiply that by what?
00:08:09.140 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 people just walked into Canada, crossed the border.
00:08:14.240 Self-selected thugs.
00:08:15.620 Their very first act, an illegal one.
00:08:18.760 That's sort of your tip off right there, people.
00:08:21.240 There's a big sign on the border.
00:08:23.580 Stop, but look underneath it.
00:08:24.940 It is illegal to cross the border here.
00:08:27.220 Illegal, illegal, illegal.
00:08:29.020 Their very first act is breaking the law.
00:08:31.200 And you're shocked that they continue to break the law?
00:08:33.700 Oh, but yeah, but he's just so damn honest when he does it.
00:08:37.000 Then again, Justin Trudeau sent out this tweet in January 2017 saying,
00:08:42.800 everyone is welcome regardless.
00:08:46.080 And Justin Trudeau told police and border guards to stop being police and stop guarding the border.
00:08:50.460 And it's turned them into a welcome wagon.
00:08:51.800 And seriously, when you see this big welcome center and you see police acting as luggage bellhops,
00:08:57.800 you'd be a sucker not to come in.
00:09:01.560 I see in the newspapers today that Justin Trudeau is paying people who live near these border crossings
00:09:06.040 $25,000 in compensation for turning their private property into a massive refugee camp.
00:09:12.660 Yeah, that's nice.
00:09:15.020 It's actually not nice, actually.
00:09:16.420 It's outrageous.
00:09:17.060 But it's a fraction of what the Abdullahi Hashiferas of the world get.
00:09:21.540 As Sheila Gunn-Reed exposed earlier this year in an access to information document we obtained,
00:09:26.900 these illegal migrants each get $50,000 just for coming in.
00:09:34.820 And that's just the federal side.
00:09:36.300 And that's just in the first year.
00:09:38.780 Add to it the provincial health care and schooling and city homeless shelters and food banks
00:09:43.200 or whatever else they can hoover up.
00:09:45.140 So yeah, $25,000 for the locals.
00:09:47.320 Yeah, that's compensation.
00:09:48.340 But if those locals just sort of walked into the states and reentered refugees,
00:09:51.980 they'd get double the cash when they do that.
00:09:54.900 All right, back to this insane case of the Somali gangster with the heart of gold.
00:09:59.700 Look at this line.
00:10:00.640 Now, the CBC is trying to spin this a bit, but I don't think they succeed.
00:10:03.880 Mount Royal University criminologist and associate professor Kelly Sundberg said Farah clearly
00:10:10.180 slipped through the cracks of the immigration screening process, something he said is becoming
00:10:15.860 more common.
00:10:18.040 Yeah, no, Farah didn't really fall through any cracks.
00:10:20.760 He didn't slip.
00:10:21.840 He was in Trudeau's immigration court.
00:10:26.520 The Border Services police warned the judge against him.
00:10:29.960 They asked the judge, please wait till we have all the criminal details from the states.
00:10:36.400 But Trent Cook was in love.
00:10:38.100 Look, he can't fight love.
00:10:39.960 And love at first sight.
00:10:41.180 And this young man's character was just, it shone through, you know what I mean?
00:10:44.840 I just felt warm all over.
00:10:46.600 I just thought, finally, I found the one.
00:10:49.320 Sorry, I added that.
00:10:50.340 But what can you say?
00:10:51.440 Love is love.
00:10:52.160 So Trent Cook, Trudeau's immigration refugee, waved him through.
00:10:57.580 That is not slipping through the cracks.
00:11:01.000 You slip through the cracks by accident.
00:11:03.160 This was being deliberately escorted into our country by a judge who fell in love.
00:11:09.560 No one slipped here.
00:11:10.980 The only falling was Trent Cook falling for this guy.
00:11:14.740 He was brought through with an embossed invitation.
00:11:17.760 And then this professor, well, the CBC says he's an expert, don't they?
00:11:21.380 So he gives us his expert opinion.
00:11:23.700 He tells us how we should feel about this.
00:11:25.460 Apparently, that's what his expertise is in, feelings.
00:11:29.840 I don't think this case is an indication that we have to curtail our immigration numbers,
00:11:34.460 Sundberg stressed.
00:11:36.260 I think this is a very small percentage of the overall population of non-citizens
00:11:40.380 seeking entry and coming into our country each year.
00:11:43.800 It still requires important attention, but this isn't a cause for public fear or angst.
00:11:49.760 Hey, guys, here's a Somali gangster.
00:11:52.700 He sells girls as young as 12 years old into prostitution.
00:11:56.640 Armed robbery?
00:11:57.500 Check.
00:11:57.880 Home invasions?
00:11:58.800 Check.
00:11:59.340 Convenience store robberies?
00:12:00.440 Check.
00:12:00.980 Gun crimes?
00:12:01.580 Check.
00:12:02.020 Drug crimes?
00:12:02.640 Check.
00:12:03.080 Found in a car with guns wearing bulletproof jackets?
00:12:05.220 Check, check, check, check, check.
00:12:06.460 But this isn't a cause for public fear or angst, you bigots.
00:12:09.600 Don't get all biggoty here.
00:12:11.140 Come on.
00:12:12.480 We don't have to reduce immigration.
00:12:15.160 An expert just told us that.
00:12:16.780 It's all okay, guys.
00:12:18.240 Stop being so Islamophobic and start embracing diversity like Trent Cook.
00:12:23.560 Look, he followed his heart.
00:12:24.740 If he can do it, you can too.
00:12:28.120 Okay, there's one more thing.
00:12:29.160 Farah is obviously Muslim, as 99% of Somalis are, but he knew what to say to game the system.
00:12:35.680 This is my favorite part.
00:12:38.760 He, he pled, he fought for refugee status by saying he was gay.
00:12:44.680 He said he was being persecuted as a gay man back in Somalia.
00:12:49.300 So, guys, I've got to come to Canada.
00:12:51.420 I've been in Minneapolis for years.
00:12:52.840 Yeah, granted.
00:12:53.560 But you see, you've got to let me into Canada because I'm totally gay.
00:12:56.800 I'm super gay, guys.
00:12:58.420 I'm really, really, I totally love guys.
00:13:01.180 So you've got to let me in because back in Somalia, that's what he said.
00:13:04.560 Even though he was in Minnesota, and you know how hard they are on gays in Minnesota.
00:13:09.340 It's just awful there.
00:13:10.780 Now, I know this is going to shock you.
00:13:13.820 He wasn't really gay.
00:13:16.680 I know.
00:13:17.480 I know.
00:13:18.040 Take a minute.
00:13:19.200 Trent Cook is depressed now, but I don't think anyone else was fooled.
00:13:24.200 This drug-dealing, gun-running, pedophile trafficker, I know it's hard to believe, he lied.
00:13:30.180 I can't believe a gun-runner lied.
00:13:32.640 I mean, where's your faith in humanity?
00:13:36.840 He lied about that.
00:13:38.340 Trent Cook believed him, maybe.
00:13:40.420 But here's what police say, and this goes to him being a gay Muslim who needed to be saved by Trudeau.
00:13:46.100 Here's what the police found on his cell phone.
00:13:49.140 The phone also contained Tinder chats, photos of Farah having sex with women, and photos of women in various stages of nudity.
00:14:01.460 There was no evidence of homosexual activity.
00:14:05.100 Farah's asylum claim was based on the contention that as a gay Muslim, he would be killed if he was deported to Somalia, unquote.
00:14:13.000 Yeah, I am so shocked.
00:14:18.240 He lied.
00:14:19.240 I didn't see that one coming.
00:14:21.340 I can't believe it either.
00:14:22.540 He just had so much honesty.
00:14:24.880 Oh, we were going to send him to honesty management.
00:14:27.260 Trent Cook was, you know, I mean, maybe we could just spend some time.
00:14:32.260 This thug, this thug, how many thugs will we take?
00:14:37.000 How many more thugs will we take?
00:14:39.140 Oh, don't you ask so many questions, you racist, bigot, Islamophobe, sexist, homophobe.
00:14:44.480 I mean, listen to the CBC's expert.
00:14:46.120 Come on, guys.
00:14:47.640 There's nothing to be concerned about here.
00:14:51.000 We totally got this in control.
00:14:52.220 Because we have a Somali migrant himself as our immigration minister and another cabinet minister, Maryam Monsef, who admits to lying on her own refugee application form.
00:15:02.800 She lied about where she was born.
00:15:04.740 So, listen, guys, stop your bigoted worrying, you homophobe, Islamophobe.
00:15:10.080 You're both.
00:15:11.060 If you're worried about this, you're both.
00:15:12.760 And sure, he's not really gay, but you're really homophobic.
00:15:16.660 So just listen to what the expert says.
00:15:20.020 We're going to be fine, guys.
00:15:23.180 And like Farrah, the CBC wouldn't ever lie to you, would they?
00:15:30.700 Stay with us for more.
00:15:48.560 Welcome back.
00:15:49.400 Well, as you know, our own Sheila Gunn-Reed is in Katowice, Poland.
00:15:53.400 That is a coal mining town that the Polish government has chosen to host this year's global warming conference for the United Nations.
00:16:02.360 On the Internet, we would call that trolling.
00:16:04.900 We would call that a form of troublemaking and mischief.
00:16:07.960 In fact, Sheila posted a picture the other day of the official bus that brings delegates around the town.
00:16:15.720 And it's sponsored by Poland's oil and gas company.
00:16:19.260 I like that style.
00:16:20.440 Well, in addition to Sheila covering the conference, our friend Mark Morano from ClimateDepot.com is there, as he has been at so many conferences.
00:16:30.660 He's really our in-house expert on these matters.
00:16:33.320 We talk to him all the time throughout the year.
00:16:34.860 And he has managed to get himself into the conference that has banned Sheila.
00:16:40.360 And he joins us now via Skype from inside the belly of the beast.
00:16:45.300 Hey, Mark, great to see you again.
00:16:47.260 You're in the middle of it there.
00:16:49.400 Yeah, this is right in the heart of the conference center.
00:16:52.740 Maybe I can go find the Canadian delegation and hurl some insults at them for keeping you out.
00:16:57.760 But I'm here with all the other countries.
00:16:59.600 The U.S. is upstairs.
00:17:00.700 I'm not exactly sure.
00:17:01.460 I haven't seen Canada around here yet.
00:17:03.340 But Indonesia and all the countries are here.
00:17:06.060 And everyone's sort of it's not that exciting of an atmosphere this year for these delegates.
00:17:13.760 I think there's sort of the Paris protests and the Yellow Vest tax revolt, climate tax revolt, has put a sort of damper on this whole conference here.
00:17:22.760 And you can sort of feel it in the air.
00:17:25.640 Wow.
00:17:26.000 So that's the thing.
00:17:28.180 It's funny.
00:17:28.820 I was reading mainstream media coverage of the Paris riots.
00:17:33.040 And we sent our own team there, Jack Buckby and Martina Marcotta, right in the middle of it.
00:17:37.540 And it is true there are a variety of reasons people are protesting.
00:17:41.680 But the central issue is the fuel tax, the carbon tax.
00:17:46.040 People think it's a straw that breaks the camel's back.
00:17:49.040 Energy is so expensive anyways.
00:17:50.580 This is just more.
00:17:51.580 The yellow vests that they wear are part of the anti-war on cars and war on motorcycles movement.
00:17:58.600 So it's the protests in France are the largest protests in that country since 1968.
00:18:05.520 Like, it is a 50-year-sized protest.
00:18:10.960 And, of course, Poland is not too far away from France.
00:18:15.900 What are people there saying?
00:18:17.640 Are they trying to blame someone else besides fuel taxes and Emmanuel Macron?
00:18:22.160 What are they saying about that?
00:18:23.640 I mean, I've never seen riots about carbon taxes before.
00:18:28.080 That's incredible.
00:18:28.700 Oh, interesting.
00:18:30.340 Here's the two things.
00:18:31.260 Tom Steyer came to this conference.
00:18:33.520 And one of his key spins is that he's welcoming these protests in France.
00:18:38.740 They're trying to co-opt the French climate tax protesters as sort of part of that whole anti-capitalist WTO protest that you see at every one of those conferences.
00:18:51.260 And that's one of the things they're doing.
00:18:53.160 And they're also saying that saying it's about climate taxes, the French revolt, is like saying the American Revolution was just about the price of tea.
00:19:01.520 They are trying everything they can to diminish it.
00:19:04.460 However, the mainstream media, the Associated Press, the Washington Post, they get it.
00:19:09.360 They're talking about how this conference is asking for more of what got Macron in trouble.
00:19:15.920 And one of my fun things I've done here, last year, if you recall, Ezra, I got to shake hands with Macron and talk to him briefly.
00:19:22.500 And I told him, President Trump is correct on climate change.
00:19:26.720 Well, guess what?
00:19:27.460 A year later, Trump is crowing that he's been right about climate.
00:19:31.220 He pulled out of the U.N. conference.
00:19:33.080 Macron went all in and is now getting his whole political career and the future of France is at stake as he goes under.
00:19:40.740 So regardless of how they're spinning in here, they are very worried.
00:19:45.880 They're calling for more of what got France into trouble.
00:19:50.400 And Macron is quite simply the face of the climate tax failure.
00:19:54.760 Yeah, isn't that interesting?
00:19:55.960 It's such a good reminder because, you know, we saw those protests and they're interesting, but they feel so far away here in North America.
00:20:03.360 Poland and France are actually fairly close historically for a number of reasons.
00:20:06.980 And geographically, they're not far away from each other.
00:20:10.280 It's just on the other side of Germany from each other.
00:20:12.980 Well, tell me a little bit about the actual physical place you're in.
00:20:15.940 It looks like the inside of a of a modern shopping mall looks like there's even a gift shop or something behind you.
00:20:21.620 Tell me physically because they wouldn't let Sheila Gunn read in.
00:20:25.120 I mean, Sheila is such a sweet lady.
00:20:26.980 I mean, I was just remarking to our team today that in the three years she's been with us, she's firm, but she's she's actually one of the more polite rebels, so to speak.
00:20:38.620 Mark, they wouldn't let her in.
00:20:41.000 How did you get in?
00:20:42.120 Is it because you're going in as an NGO as opposed to a reporter?
00:20:45.320 Maybe, but I mean, look at our history.
00:20:49.240 We had Lord Moncton go and walk into the plenary and talk about the global warming pause as part of a delegation.
00:20:55.880 He didn't belong.
00:20:56.860 We had we were arrested by U.N. climate cops a few years after that.
00:21:01.020 We've had run in after run in.
00:21:02.360 I don't know.
00:21:02.820 I think part of it is we're not the media.
00:21:04.460 And I think that that makes it maybe a little easier because we have our rights as a non-governmental organization.
00:21:10.760 And we also met with the U.S. delegation this time.
00:21:13.260 And we were front row at their pro-coal, pro-fossil fuel event.
00:21:17.560 And that enraged the international media, the climate deniers looking on appreciatively in the front row.
00:21:23.820 So the United Nations, we have a long history of battling them.
00:21:27.360 But I did do something that maybe Sheila didn't.
00:21:29.800 I had to sign a letter saying I'd been a bad boy and that I wouldn't do it again.
00:21:34.460 So, you know, I'm I'm on double secret probation here at the U.N. climate summit.
00:21:39.840 Well, that's the thing.
00:21:40.480 We actually haven't done anything wrong.
00:21:42.560 They just I mean, they they're very explicit in their letter.
00:21:45.460 But I think Sheila's coverage for even though she's not allowed to come into the actual meeting rooms has been excellent.
00:21:51.460 I know she was at your coal event.
00:21:53.140 And I and I'm glad you told us about that.
00:21:56.940 Yeah, we met we went to we did an event last night in coal country and it was well attended.
00:22:03.180 And we had a local professor speak as well.
00:22:06.440 I told them the greatest threat that Poland faces.
00:22:09.220 They had to deal with Soviet domination for decades before that, the German domination and the greatest threat to their economic and energy freedom.
00:22:18.080 And their sovereignty is now coming from this very conference center with the United Nations agenda and the EU agenda as well.
00:22:26.340 And that got rounds of applause and cheers in the audience.
00:22:30.420 And then I put on a yellow vest in solidarity, no pun intended, with Poland.
00:22:35.980 So I think we also went out to a local coal mine here out in the country and we took a whole tour of the coal plant, met with coal executives.
00:22:43.100 They are fully on board with thinking the United Nations is full of bleep and they're actually so on board with that.
00:22:51.620 The whole entrance to this conference is a, if you will, a memorial to coal, a praise of coal.
00:22:59.100 They have coal, all kinds of displays set up and it's gotten the environmental activists so upset.
00:23:04.780 Why are they coming to a U.N. conference to see coal glorified, both by the Polish government and by the Trump administration?
00:23:11.160 So it's been a great week here in Poland.
00:23:13.500 That's what I can say.
00:23:14.660 That, you know what, that really is.
00:23:16.200 I mean, I used the word earlier trolling, but that's not trolling.
00:23:19.540 When 80 percent of your energy comes from coal, when it employs over 100,000 people, when it is reliable energy, unlike the intermittent, unreliable energy of solar.
00:23:32.320 Coal is real life.
00:23:33.700 Solar panels is people trying to live the Star Trek fantasy in real life.
00:23:41.140 It's role playing.
00:23:43.100 And I think the polls are in real life.
00:23:44.900 You know, let me ask you this.
00:23:46.940 You're in the thick of the global warming conference, but this same week there was another U.N. conference in Marrakech, Morocco, about open borders migration.
00:23:56.600 We had a reporter there too.
00:23:58.240 Poland is against that one also.
00:24:00.420 It almost looks like the polls once again are saving Western civilization from a global threat.
00:24:06.800 They are.
00:24:08.980 And keep in mind, this is why the United Nations is so dangerous.
00:24:12.520 It doesn't matter what your country wants, what's in the best interest of your country, what your people vote for.
00:24:17.300 The U.N., whether it's on migration, family planning, fertility management, as Al Gore likes to say when it relates to climate, whether it's about your energy use, your transportation, your diet, how much meat you can eat.
00:24:30.400 But they want to actually dictate, control, and override your local country's wishes and the people's will.
00:24:39.600 That's why it's so dangerous.
00:24:40.920 Having these conferences side by side should be an eye-opener to anyone in the world who thinks the United Nations isn't one of the gravest threats to individual freedom and national sovereignty around the globe.
00:24:51.820 So these, together, prove that over and over every minute, every day, every hour.
00:24:57.700 Wow.
00:24:58.720 Well, I tell you, Mark, I'm so grateful to you.
00:25:01.020 Throughout the year, you give us briefings on global warming schemes and scams, and it's nice to talk to you from Poland.
00:25:07.180 I have one last question to you.
00:25:08.680 You mentioned you haven't seen the Canadian delegation.
00:25:11.960 That is amazing because they have 126 people in the entourage.
00:25:16.860 I don't know how you can, it's like hiding a blue whale or something.
00:25:20.460 How do you hide 126 people?
00:25:21.940 Maybe they're all out, maybe they're sleeping in, having expensive, you know, hotel room service and just exploring the Christmas festivals there in Poland.
00:25:34.120 126 people, they're, I mean, that's just so embarrassing, the luxurious waste.
00:25:39.880 But you mentioned that there is a U.S. delegation.
00:25:42.540 Now, you went to the coal event with them.
00:25:44.220 And tell me exactly, because I thought Donald Trump had sort of pulled America out.
00:25:50.520 Are these just observers there?
00:25:52.660 Why does America have anyone there?
00:25:55.480 Good question.
00:25:56.440 Well, first of all, as Al Gore correctly states, the U.S. will not be out of the Paris Agreement until after the next presidential election in November, late November 2020.
00:26:04.860 That's point one.
00:26:05.940 Point two is Donald Trump, and I think wisely, if you're not going to pull out of the whole framework,
00:26:10.560 he sends a delegation to make sure that if Donald Trump isn't reelected, the next president wants to get us back in, that the U.S. still is protecting our interests.
00:26:23.280 So they're going through the motions here, but with the intent of getting out.
00:26:27.080 It's kind of convoluted, I know, but the best we can do.
00:26:30.120 And it's actually pretty great, considering all the other alternatives, really.
00:26:34.840 And so the U.S. delegation actually consists of two different divisions.
00:26:39.800 One of them are the Trump appointees, who are great guys.
00:26:43.480 You can talk to them.
00:26:44.540 You can speak freely.
00:26:45.760 They get it.
00:26:46.640 They were appointed by president.
00:26:47.880 They serve at Donald Trump's pleasure.
00:26:49.000 The other group of people here, and it probably is outnumbered significantly the appointees, are the career bureaucrats, State Department, who show up.
00:26:57.860 And believe me, these people, these staffers here are not in support of Donald Trump.
00:27:02.820 They were much more at home with President Obama.
00:27:05.360 They would have been much more happy with Hillary Clinton as president.
00:27:08.680 But I was told very delicately by the American staff that the career staff here knows how to follow orders and is very pleasant and knows their role.
00:27:18.300 So they're not, as far as I can tell, they're not undermining anything.
00:27:21.660 But there is that division.
00:27:23.300 Just because they're representing America doesn't mean they support Donald Trump, unless they've been appointed by Donald Trump.
00:27:29.340 Very interesting.
00:27:30.560 All right.
00:27:30.960 Well, listen, it's great to see you inside there.
00:27:33.600 But, you know, I mean, it looks like a huge campus with people from all around the world.
00:27:40.940 It looks like a bit of a party.
00:27:42.940 It looks like a lot of busy work.
00:27:45.500 Look, I'm glad you're inside, and I appreciate what you've just told us.
00:27:49.060 But I'm also glad, in some ways, that instead of Sheila chasing around this delegate or that delegate for this press release or that press release, she's actually freed from the baloney, freed from the BS inside, so she can follow her own instincts to report.
00:28:05.060 I think it's great having you inside and Sheila outside.
00:28:07.720 I think we've got the basis.
00:28:08.600 Let me tell you what she's missing.
00:28:11.160 They have a big U.N. buffet in the main food court here that originally, the first couple days, was criticized roundly by the environmentalists for very little vegetarian and vegan offerings.
00:28:21.500 By the time I got to this buffet, it was like 75% vegan and all this crap you wouldn't want to touch.
00:28:27.360 But they actually had a huge thing because they had this whole thing about hamburgers and cow emissions, and meanwhile, they had huge displays and buffet lines of hamburger hair.
00:28:36.520 So there's a lot of hypocrisy, also a lot of hypocrisy about the private jets here.
00:28:40.480 But the good news is, the greatest news out of this conference, and let's talk about the climate exit from U.N. summit.
00:28:47.680 Donald Trump's leadership here, I believe, has led now to Russia, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, refusing to accept the latest IPCC load of bollocks that came out in October.
00:28:59.900 So these countries stood together.
00:29:02.200 In addition to that, Brazil canceled the next U.N. summit next year in Brazil, their foreign minister calling it a Marxist hoax.
00:29:08.380 This is great news.
00:29:10.600 The U.N. has to be worried, very, very worried.
00:29:13.520 Yeah, that is a lot of interesting news.
00:29:15.860 Sheila told me about those other countries pulling out yesterday or disagreeing yesterday.
00:29:20.060 She didn't tell me about the buffet.
00:29:22.260 You know what?
00:29:22.880 As you can tell, anyone who looks at me, you know, they meet me, they look me from toe to tip to toe, and they say, you like buffets.
00:29:31.720 I can just tell.
00:29:32.480 If someone said, Ezra, an all-you-can-eat vegan buffet, I think I'd starve.
00:29:39.960 I mean, the idea of an all-you-can-eat vegan buffet is so, that's such an oxymoron, Mark, and I'm so glad that I don't have to face that for lunch.
00:29:51.680 That's just so funny and weird, an all-you-can-eat vegan buffet.
00:29:57.500 I'm glad I've got my own lunch.
00:30:00.380 I'm going to think about that for a while.
00:30:01.740 Mark, it's great to see you.
00:30:02.620 I'm just joking around.
00:30:03.720 There's obviously a lot of serious matters there, but just the goofiness about opposing meat at a lunch, it's just a perfect U.N. microcosm right there.
00:30:13.580 Mark, great to see you.
00:30:14.220 Thanks for taking the time with us.
00:30:15.740 Thank you, Ezra.
00:30:16.480 All right, there you have it.
00:30:17.200 Mark Morano, I was joking about the buffet, but everything else we've talked about was quite serious, don't you think?
00:30:22.100 I'm so glad he's there in Katowice, Poland, on the inside, and Sheila Gunn-Reed is there, too, on the outside.
00:30:27.560 But she has more better reporting than any journalist who submits to the United Nations.
00:30:32.900 You can see all of Sheila's reports and David's reports from Marrakesh, Morocco, at rebelun.com.
00:30:47.200 Well, that's our friend Mark Morano, who managed to get inside the conference by signing an apology for hurting the United Nations feelings.
00:31:00.480 That's what he told us.
00:31:01.660 Well, we don't apologize for our point of view.
00:31:03.880 I understand Mark doing so to get inside, but we just can't make those words.
00:31:08.500 We can't say, I'm sorry, United Nations, for being mean to you, because part of being a journalist is being a skeptic and telling the truth about powerful people, even if they say you can't.
00:31:18.640 I totally respect Mark Morano.
00:31:19.880 As you can see, he is actually telling the truth from within.
00:31:23.600 But Sheila Gunn-Reed was not let in because she's too honest.
00:31:27.160 She joins us now from outside that same building.
00:31:30.580 Hey, Sheila, great to see you again.
00:31:33.120 Hey, Ezra.
00:31:33.960 Thanks for having me.
00:31:35.020 Now, we can see a massive building behind you.
00:31:37.660 Maybe we can pull back and get the shot a little wider.
00:31:42.280 That is the main conference center for the global warming medium.
00:31:48.720 Am I right?
00:31:50.160 Yes, that's Spodex Stadium.
00:31:52.160 It's actually built on top of a reclaimed coal mine, which is some top-tier trolling by the Polish government.
00:31:58.960 Yeah, that's right.
00:32:00.300 Well, I follow you on Twitter, of course.
00:32:03.500 And I saw that this morning you popped into a mall just to warm up and to do some filing.
00:32:10.120 And there was like a kid's corner, as some malls have.
00:32:12.500 And they were playing a kid's cartoon or something, a kid's show, with a coal miners marching band.
00:32:18.240 And they weren't being mean to the coal miners.
00:32:20.300 They were celebrating them.
00:32:21.380 Is that – did I get that right?
00:32:22.900 Yeah, there's a little bit lost in translation when you're watching a Polish cartoon.
00:32:28.360 But it's animated, so you can sort of tell what's going on.
00:32:31.660 And it was about people who worked at a coal mine.
00:32:34.980 And there was a coal miners marching band.
00:32:36.820 And they sort of had this big celebration for all the coal miners.
00:32:40.320 And that was a kid's cartoon playing at the mall two blocks over from the United Nations Global Warming Conference.
00:32:48.580 You know, that's great.
00:32:49.660 The demonization of working men and women is something that in the West has been so subtle that you don't know –
00:32:56.260 it's like the old saying, you know, it's sort of gross when you think about it.
00:33:00.140 If you throw a frog into hot water, it'll immediately jump out.
00:33:04.220 But if you put it in cool water and gradually warm it, it'll boil alive.
00:33:08.240 The more I think about that analogy, the more I'm repulsed by it.
00:33:11.600 But the point is we don't notice things changing if they happen slowly.
00:33:16.340 And somewhere along the way, men – primarily men, but also women too – but mainly men who work outside, work with their hands, work physically, wear a hard hat, do dangerous jobs, logging, construction, mining, pipelines, truck driving,
00:33:31.640 went from hardworking men that politicians would court to, well, we're not going to subsidize you but we won't be mean to you, to you are destroying the world and we must punish you.
00:33:44.660 Somehow we managed to denormalize the most normal people.
00:33:49.700 And it's sort of a shock when we treat them normally as Poland still does.
00:33:54.380 We don't show any respect to outdoor, hardworking, industrial men in North America anymore.
00:34:01.440 Donald Trump does, but we don't in Canada, do we?
00:34:05.040 No, I mean, we've seen how Rachel Notley treats farmers.
00:34:09.440 She treated them as people who were cruel and unusual to their hired help, so much so that she had to bring in Bill 6 legislation
00:34:17.160 that basically puts union rules and bankers' hours on Alberta's family farms.
00:34:22.680 But we've also seen it in how Justin Trudeau and his environment minister speak about Canadian construction workers and oil patch workers.
00:34:33.280 They've gone from just treating their work as though it's negligible and unimportant to treating them as though they're ruining the world
00:34:42.320 to treating them as though they are predatory deviants when they come into these towns to do the work that Canada needs done.
00:34:50.760 Yeah, you know what, let me play a quick clip here.
00:34:53.160 You made me think of a bizarre comment that Justin Trudeau made when he was in Argentina.
00:34:57.920 He doesn't have the courage to say something like this in a coal mining town or a construction town.
00:35:02.960 But when he's thousands of miles away, swanning for his international media, here he is actually implying
00:35:09.400 that when men come to build something with construction, when they get off the job, they go and rape the locals.
00:35:16.800 Here's a quick clip.
00:35:18.000 You might not say, oh, what does a gender lens have to do with building this new highway or this new pipeline or something?
00:35:23.720 Well, there are gender impacts.
00:35:26.160 When you bring construction workers into a rural area, there are social impacts, because they're mostly male construction workers,
00:35:32.400 how are you adjusting and adapting to those?
00:35:35.520 I think Justin Trudeau actually means that.
00:35:37.360 I don't think Trudeau's done a day's work in his life.
00:35:40.240 Actually, he's two generations away from the last Trudeau who did work for a living.
00:35:47.180 I think that that comment was not scripted.
00:35:50.000 It's just a casual thing he truly believes, and it's probably how they talk all around him.
00:35:55.180 If you look around his inner circle, you've got Catherine McKenna, who's never worked a day in her life.
00:35:59.460 She's been an activist lawyer.
00:36:01.000 You've got Seamus O'Regan, the CTV newsreader who just compared himself to military vets having PTSD.
00:36:11.400 He's got, like, he's got Mariam Monsef, whose only notable achievement was lying in her refugee application to Canada.
00:36:19.500 Bill Morneau had won the genetic lottery and inherited a billion-dollar company from his dad and married a billionaire heiress.
00:36:31.600 So there's no one in Justin Trudeau's circle that has actually worked for a living, let alone done physical, manual, outdoor, industrial labor.
00:36:41.160 I don't think Justin Trudeau had ever set foot on a factory floor ever until he started doing photo ops in politics.
00:36:48.600 Well, no, and when he's there, he's not courting the working man.
00:36:54.000 When he goes to these factories, he's courting the union leadership of the people who work there.
00:37:01.960 He's not there to defend the jobs of those people.
00:37:05.200 In fact, he said that he's going to phase out the jobs of those people as long as those jobs are in oil and gas.
00:37:10.940 He's there, courting the support of the union leadership.
00:37:14.500 Yeah, it's so frustrating.
00:37:16.240 Well, I feel, I mean, Mark Morano, we just spoke to him, and your comments over the past few days have given me a little flicker of hope.
00:37:24.360 Because, I mean, Mark reminds me that Poland, I mean, here in Canada, we think France is so far away and Canada is so vast.
00:37:32.160 But the difference, the geographical and political space between France and Poland is not large.
00:37:38.580 And the anti-fuel tax riots there seem to be resonating across Europe.
00:37:45.080 The fact that the Polish government is trolling, so to speak, these global warmists, the fact that America had a coal event there,
00:37:54.240 it's a little bit of hope that maybe people are breaking away from this cult.
00:38:00.660 And you mentioned the other day that Saudi Arabia and a few other energy producers, like, I mean, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Qatar,
00:38:08.160 those are, Saudi Arabia and Russia are the number two and number three oil producers in the world.
00:38:13.980 Qatar is a huge oil and a huger gas producer.
00:38:17.660 If they're saying, yeah, you know what, we're sort of done listening to these UN types,
00:38:22.640 maybe people are starting to finally say the emperor has no clothes.
00:38:26.320 You know, I think Donald Trump has really emboldened other countries to come out against the United Nations.
00:38:34.220 You can come out against the United Nations.
00:38:36.340 Nothing happens to you.
00:38:38.200 They get mad.
00:38:39.340 They might want an apology, but there really are no consequences, which is great.
00:38:43.240 It shows that this big global organization has no teeth.
00:38:47.600 You know, Mark and I were talking yesterday night at his event, and we were talking about the irony of these people who are so Russia collusion deranged,
00:38:58.080 supporting and supporting the idea that Poland should move away from vast, reliable, cheap coal in favor of natural gas or something even cleaner burning.
00:39:11.420 But all that does is enrich Russia, because so much of Eastern Europe is reliant on Gazprom for their gas.
00:39:20.800 So as long as Poland is using coal, they aren't enriching Putin.
00:39:25.420 Yeah.
00:39:25.780 You know, that's a great point.
00:39:27.020 I remember in a book I wrote called Groundswell, the case for fracking, I studied the international pricing of Gazprom.
00:39:35.520 Gazprom is a massive natural gas company.
00:39:38.060 For a while there, it could claim to be the largest company in the world in terms of assets.
00:39:44.640 It's not true anymore.
00:39:48.320 There's a map, and I'll see if I can dig it up, that was published in Izvestia that showed the different countries Gazprom sold to and the different prices.
00:39:57.320 And there was no rhyme or reason to it, Sheila.
00:40:00.500 There was no pattern.
00:40:01.920 There was no economic explanation.
00:40:03.420 In fact, a pipeline that went through Poland to Germany charged more to the poles for the gas than it did to Germany.
00:40:14.320 So how could the same gas from the same Gazprom in the same pipeline cost more in Poland as opposed to if that gas traveled hundreds of kilometers further to Germany?
00:40:25.500 Well, the answer is obvious because the pricing was political.
00:40:30.760 If you succumbed to Russia, if you did Putin a favor, he would chop a billion dollars a year off your gas prices.
00:40:38.420 If you were resistant and independent and you embraced America, as Poland has done, it would jack up your prices.
00:40:45.000 And if you really got out of hand, like Ukraine did, Russia would literally cut off the pipe in wintertime to freeze you.
00:40:53.020 So you're so right.
00:40:54.780 Anyone who would say, no, no, no, don't dig coal.
00:40:58.420 Buy your natural gas from Vladimir Putin.
00:41:01.180 We can trust him.
00:41:02.800 That's true Russian collusion.
00:41:04.700 And I should mention, and I'm almost done my little rant here, Sheila, that Gerhard Schrader, the former chancellor of Germany, upon retiring, joined the Gazprom pipeline board.
00:41:15.080 And so he is, he, that one man, Gerhard Schrader, is a walking, talking Russian collusion machine designed to keep Europe subordinate to Vladimir Putin.
00:41:27.540 You've just awakened in me this memory for how natural gas from Russia enslaves Europe.
00:41:36.140 Forget about, you know, Trump 2016.
00:41:38.880 That's the real Russian conspiracy.
00:41:41.360 Well, yes, coal here in Poland is their freedom from Russian tyranny.
00:41:48.700 It's their defense against, you know, the new branded Soviet Union of Vladimir Putin.
00:41:56.220 As long as they have coal and as long as they are using coal, they will always be free of Russian tyranny.
00:42:02.360 And as I look right in front of me, I'm standing right beside the Greenpeace climate hub where they are actively campaigning to put 100,000 Polish coal miners out of work.
00:42:15.900 Vladimir Putin has no better friend than Greenpeace in his pursuit of world domination.
00:42:22.400 Yeah. You know, I have noted where Greenpeace does and does not operate.
00:42:29.380 Obviously, they don't operate in any OPEC dictatorship because freedom of association, political criticism does not exist in those countries.
00:42:37.360 Fair enough. I wouldn't recommend that Greenpeace go to Saudi Arabia and have a protest.
00:42:41.780 They'd be thrown in prison.
00:42:42.500 But you'd think they'd at least issue a press release from the safety of their headquarters in the Netherlands.
00:42:47.860 You'd think they would at least maybe put out a statement or an ad, but they won't.
00:42:53.400 And that's not because they're worried about their safety.
00:42:55.340 It's just because they are not against oil and gas.
00:42:59.020 They're only against democratic oil and gas from Western countries.
00:43:03.680 The one time Greenpeace protested a Russian Arctic drilling rig, and I don't know how that little rogue operation got going.
00:43:13.900 They were thrown in a Russian prison and punished so hard that they never did it again.
00:43:21.400 And by the way, the West really didn't care.
00:43:23.920 So, yeah, Greenpeace, you know what?
00:43:25.100 Now, I know you're standing with that building behind you.
00:43:27.440 Is it possible for you to rotate and have our videographer show us this Greenpeace protest hub that you mentioned?
00:43:36.480 Because I wouldn't mind showing it to our viewers.
00:43:38.280 I'm curious now what it looks like.
00:43:40.520 Sure.
00:43:41.140 Mr. Videographer, we're going to show Ezra and everybody the climate hub.
00:43:45.160 Okay.
00:43:45.380 Where?
00:43:46.340 Yeah.
00:43:46.940 Okay.
00:43:47.420 So.
00:43:47.660 Yeah.
00:43:48.780 So.
00:43:49.580 So that's.
00:43:53.760 So that big building.
00:43:56.120 Okay.
00:43:56.600 So this big building behind us is the train station.
00:44:01.780 Yeah.
00:44:02.180 And in the far corner there, if Efron wouldn't mind showing Ezra, where it says climate protection is not a crime and coal in the top corner there.
00:44:15.100 And this is where Greenpeace is headquartered.
00:44:17.580 And this is the only off-site place available to the public because the Polish government has not allocated any public space for any off-site demonstrations or anything like that.
00:44:34.200 Did you have the cameraman point at the sign that said climate hub?
00:44:37.640 Back to the right there.
00:44:38.720 We saw that.
00:44:39.140 The climate hub.
00:44:41.560 It's being blocked by the train.
00:44:42.720 We have a train in the way.
00:44:44.000 Yeah.
00:44:44.280 Okay.
00:44:44.460 No problem.
00:44:45.260 I just wanted to.
00:44:46.080 You mentioned the climate hub.
00:44:47.720 Yeah.
00:44:47.820 And I was curious what that meant and what that looked like.
00:44:50.220 So they just set up in this train station is what you're saying.
00:44:52.660 Put it back on the screen for a second there, Martin.
00:44:54.480 Let's take a look.
00:44:55.540 Okay.
00:44:55.900 So it's just basically they're operating out of like the central train station.
00:45:00.620 I see there's a coffee shop there.
00:45:02.840 So it's just sort of there's really not a lot going on there.
00:45:06.400 It's just sort of a hangout, I guess.
00:45:09.800 Yeah.
00:45:10.660 Yeah.
00:45:11.560 And coal.
00:45:12.440 There's really not.
00:45:13.760 And coal.
00:45:14.640 And they're doing this in a coal town.
00:45:16.520 Oops.
00:45:16.820 The train's back.
00:45:18.660 All right.
00:45:19.180 Well, thanks for letting me direct your camera in mid-interview.
00:45:25.400 You just said climate hub and I wanted to see what it looks like.
00:45:29.280 It's sort of put a full.
00:45:30.040 Let's put the camera back on you and we'll say goodbye, Sheila.
00:45:33.020 There we go.
00:45:33.480 It's a gorgeous Christmas tree that's flashing in the background.
00:45:36.960 I really like it.
00:45:37.700 Oh, sorry.
00:45:38.320 No, no.
00:45:38.820 It's a bit of a strobe effect there, but it's so pretty.
00:45:41.460 It's a reminder that Poland has not replaced Christianity with the new cult of environmentalism.
00:45:47.680 They still believe in certain things.
00:45:49.460 Last word to you, Sheila.
00:45:50.860 You're there for one more day.
00:45:53.000 Give us a hint of what other things you might be talking and covering today and tomorrow.
00:45:59.280 So we ran into our friend Mark Morano this morning.
00:46:02.540 We've got a great little video coming out with him.
00:46:06.520 He paid a visit to the climate hub and the folks at Greenpeace.
00:46:10.420 So we'll be showing you exactly how that went and the whole caper.
00:46:14.400 And we caught up with another skeptical journalist outside of the event.
00:46:22.600 And so we have an interview with him coming up later on today.
00:46:25.700 Wow.
00:46:25.920 Another skeptical journalist.
00:46:27.880 Yeah.
00:46:28.360 Very exciting.
00:46:29.320 You know, it's two ships passing in the night.
00:46:31.620 I didn't know there was another skeptical journalist.
00:46:33.480 I can hardly wait to see that.
00:46:34.720 Well, Sheila, thanks again for joining us and for spending your whole week there away from
00:46:38.700 your family just before Christmas.
00:46:40.140 I understand the sacrifice you're making and your family is making to let you travel
00:46:45.240 the globe for us.
00:46:46.540 You'll be back home by the weekend.
00:46:48.340 Thank God.
00:46:49.420 And just outstanding journalism.
00:46:51.240 It's great to have these live chats with you.
00:46:53.040 But I want to remind our viewers that your produced video segments are all at rebelun.com.
00:46:59.560 And I would encourage folks, if they appreciate the work that Sheila's doing, help us cover
00:47:04.120 the plane tickets and hotel and meals and other, you know, taxi cabs or whatever expenses
00:47:10.340 by going to rebelun.com.
00:47:12.080 That's 100% crowdfunded people because we just refuse to take money from Justin Trudeau.
00:47:17.180 So we rely on you.
00:47:18.360 If you love Sheila as much as I do, I think she's wonderful.
00:47:21.200 I think she's a great reporter.
00:47:23.420 And Sheila, we're all big fans here.
00:47:25.280 And I'm gushing, I know.
00:47:26.240 But it's, I'm so glad you're there.
00:47:29.300 I think you're the only journalist Canadians can trust on this matter.
00:47:33.140 So thanks for being there.
00:47:35.720 Well, and thank you and thank everybody at home for taking their hard-earned cash and
00:47:41.480 donating it to us so that I could be here to bring them the other side of the story.
00:47:45.040 Right on.
00:47:45.440 Well, that's exactly what you're doing.
00:47:47.060 That's rebelun.com, folks, for all of Sheila's videos.
00:47:50.240 Take care, my friend.
00:47:50.960 See you later.
00:47:52.480 Thanks, Ezra.
00:47:53.240 Bye.
00:47:53.780 Bye-bye.
00:47:54.500 Stay with us.
00:47:55.240 More ahead on The Rebel.
00:47:56.240 Hey, welcome back.
00:48:08.160 On my monologue yesterday about exercise maple flag being canceled, Jamie writes,
00:48:13.200 Wait until Trudeau gets re-elected.
00:48:14.840 It will be canceled forever.
00:48:17.980 I think there's a likelihood of that.
00:48:21.080 I hate the fact that this is canceled.
00:48:22.760 I think this is an admission.
00:48:23.960 We're no longer in the front ranks of our NATO and non-NATO allies.
00:48:28.740 We just can't keep up with them.
00:48:30.380 And the reason I showed some of the footage of that F-35 just tearing it up in Israel that
00:48:34.240 we saw this summer is because more and more countries are getting the F-35.
00:48:38.900 That's the next generation.
00:48:40.240 I think they call it a fifth generation fighter plane.
00:48:42.960 Just technically superior to the F-18s.
00:48:46.180 F-18s are a great aircraft.
00:48:47.240 But, you know, they're 40 years old.
00:48:51.420 Almost.
00:48:52.340 We've had them for, what, 33, 34 years.
00:48:56.860 You just can't keep doing that and keep up.
00:49:00.780 And we're going to be a year further behind next year and a year further behind after that.
00:49:04.440 So how could we possibly catch up?
00:49:09.000 I don't think Trudeau values the military.
00:49:10.720 In fact, sort of the opposite.
00:49:11.500 I think he despises it like his father did.
00:49:14.800 So, yeah, I think that this is going to be permanently canceled.
00:49:17.580 What do you think?
00:49:17.860 There's going to be some sudden injection of money.
00:49:20.740 Are we going to get the F-35s anytime soon?
00:49:23.100 He's made this bizarre decision to buy used F-18s from Australia.
00:49:27.480 It's the same plane.
00:49:29.040 You're not upgrading, buddy.
00:49:30.640 You're buying the same plane.
00:49:33.400 Yeah, and if you no longer have the training at CFB Cold Lake,
00:49:38.640 why do you even need CFB Cold Lake?
00:49:43.680 Bruce writes on that very point.
00:49:45.220 He says, I suspect that CFB Cold Lake will be made into a wildlife preserve
00:49:50.080 where no development is allowed.
00:49:51.740 That's what the lunatic left wants.
00:49:54.700 You are exactly right.
00:49:57.240 That is exactly what's going to happen.
00:50:00.280 Beat your swords into plowshares, people.
00:50:03.060 It used to be a place of war and hate,
00:50:06.400 and now it's a place of love and organic farming.
00:50:10.880 But farming, sorry, Jesus, what am I saying?
00:50:13.600 It's not going to be any farming allowed.
00:50:15.280 That's way too, you know, rape the earth, farmers are right-wing.
00:50:19.820 It's going to be a nature preserve.
00:50:22.800 Absolutely, that's what's going to happen.
00:50:25.700 On my interview with Sheila Gunn-Reed yesterday,
00:50:27.980 we talked to her again today, but yesterday, Ron writes,
00:50:31.020 what a bummer, Brazil won't host the next global warming conference.
00:50:33.840 How about Venezuela?
00:50:35.360 Yeah, you know, wherever it is, we're going to send Sheila,
00:50:39.740 and it probably won't be in Venezuela.
00:50:41.200 But we'll send her, because I think she does important work,
00:50:45.260 and our viewers like it.
00:50:46.920 I think it's very exciting that Jair Bolsonaro,
00:50:49.420 the new president of Brazil, is totally the anti-Chavez.
00:50:54.200 He's conservative, he's pro-Trump, he's pro-Israel,
00:50:56.920 he's anti-global warming extremism.
00:50:59.660 He's great.
00:51:01.680 As to Venezuela, it's funny, I saw this stat,
00:51:03.860 I think I referred to it,
00:51:04.820 it's, anybody didn't mention it,
00:51:07.900 North Dakota, little state,
00:51:09.540 about the northern border,
00:51:11.920 it borders Saskatchewan,
00:51:14.240 and I can't visualize the map in my mind,
00:51:16.360 I think it touches the bottom of Manitoba also.
00:51:19.100 North Dakota, small state, one of the smallest states,
00:51:21.040 about 800,000 citizens, pretty small,
00:51:22.880 great place, great place.
00:51:26.920 They now produce more oil than Venezuela every day.
00:51:29.320 Isn't that amazing?
00:51:32.340 Because that's freedom.
00:51:34.180 Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world,
00:51:37.080 more than Saudi Arabia,
00:51:38.300 but the collapse of socialism, state-run economy,
00:51:42.340 Hugo Chavez's successor, Nicolas Maduro,
00:51:44.880 they are producing less than that teeny tiny state of North Dakota.
00:51:50.100 So in a way,
00:51:52.920 Venezuela is reducing their carbon footprint,
00:51:56.660 also they're starving their people, as you probably know.
00:51:58.600 The average Venezuelan has lost, I think it's 18 pounds.
00:52:01.680 Now you look at a fat soul like me,
00:52:03.100 you say, Ezra, you could stand to lose 18 pounds too.
00:52:06.040 Sure.
00:52:06.820 But they're losing 18 pounds,
00:52:08.180 not because they are exercising,
00:52:09.960 or choosing to eat smart.
00:52:11.560 They're losing 18 pounds,
00:52:12.900 because they are being malnourished,
00:52:14.540 and literally starving.
00:52:17.380 In what was once the wealthiest,
00:52:19.980 it was one of the wealthiest countries,
00:52:22.140 one of the wealthier countries of the world.
00:52:24.540 Of the world.
00:52:26.520 In fact, I think there was a moment,
00:52:27.420 where Venezuela was actually on par with Canada and wealth.
00:52:29.920 Yeah, so Venezuela is exactly what the globalists want.
00:52:33.740 Socialists?
00:52:34.500 Check.
00:52:35.000 Control of the media?
00:52:36.380 Check.
00:52:39.080 Reducing carbon footprint?
00:52:40.720 Yes.
00:52:41.440 In every way,
00:52:42.680 it is the predictable outcome of global socialism.
00:52:47.440 Well, that's our show for today.
00:52:48.740 What do you think about that Immigration and Refugee Board judge?
00:52:52.360 When someone confesses a crime spree to you,
00:52:57.260 you can say,
00:52:58.700 wow, that's really candid.
00:53:00.520 But then you say,
00:53:02.020 so I am on guard.
00:53:04.160 I'm sort of on duty here,
00:53:05.820 protecting Canada.
00:53:06.820 You just confessed to being a gangbanger.
00:53:09.600 You shouldn't even come here as a refugee anyways,
00:53:11.800 because you're from Minneapolis.
00:53:12.940 You're not in Somalia anymore.
00:53:14.740 So thank you for your honesty.
00:53:16.280 But the answer is no.
00:53:20.060 I mean,
00:53:20.400 I will accept that this gangster was surprisingly candid,
00:53:25.620 although it turns out he didn't reveal everything.
00:53:27.540 I'll accept that.
00:53:28.540 I'll accept that it was quite strange.
00:53:30.320 But the answer,
00:53:31.200 when a crook,
00:53:32.400 a criminal,
00:53:33.200 a violent thug says,
00:53:34.380 I'm a violent thug.
00:53:36.120 Yeah,
00:53:36.320 I can tell by the MS-13 tattoo you had.
00:53:38.500 This guy didn't have tattoos.
00:53:39.760 But if someone were to say,
00:53:41.460 yeah,
00:53:41.560 I'm a murderer,
00:53:42.560 you don't say,
00:53:43.200 you're so honest,
00:53:43.900 man.
00:53:44.940 Come on in.
00:53:45.500 I love you.
00:53:46.240 You don't say that.
00:53:47.300 You keep them out.
00:53:48.360 Trent Cook,
00:53:49.520 let him in.
00:53:52.800 That's a problem.
00:53:53.920 All right,
00:53:54.200 enough of that.
00:53:56.060 I'll tell you tomorrow,
00:53:56.660 guys.
00:53:57.420 On behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,
00:53:59.280 see you at home.
00:53:59.700 Good night.
00:54:00.680 Keep fighting for freedom.
00:54:14.120 with him.
