Summary

We were just banned from access to the Alberta legislature, but you'll never believe who banned us. You'll be shocked to know who did it. It's a shadow of the National Post where I used to work 20 years ago.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Today is a big show. It's a crazy show. We were just banned from access to the Alberta legislature, but you will never believe who banned us. I'm going to take you through the story step by step. It's a lot in there. So I make reference to some documents, which we put on a website. I want to encourage you to become a premium subscriber. Normally I say, well, do it for the video footage, because that's really what the premium subscription gets. So you get to see the video version of this podcast.
00:00:28.580 And that's, that remains. But in this case, we just plain old need the dough because we're fighting against a giant competitor that yesterday made moves to silence us. And they take huge government money. We don't take a dime. So one of the ways you can support us is becoming a premium subscriber. Go to rebelnews.com and just click subscribe. It's eight bucks a month or 80 bucks for the whole year. Guys, we actually need the help. So please consider it. Okay. Here's today's podcast.
00:00:58.580 Tonight, we've been banned from Alberta's press gallery. Again, you'll be shocked who did it to us this time. It's July 28. And this is the Ezra Levant show.
00:01:20.300 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer? I know.
00:01:25.980 There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:30.040 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:35.860 A terrible thing happened to us yesterday. Our reporters Sheila Gunn-Reed and Kian Bexte were banned from the Alberta legislature press gallery. Banned like we're in Iran or China or something instead of in Canada.
00:01:53.900 Canada. I'll show you the letter that we received in a moment. You can see it at letusreport.com.
00:02:01.080 But let me promise you this. We are fighting back. As God is my witness, we will fight this forever if we have to. Freedom of the press is at stake.
00:02:10.520 And that's why I'm making this video. I want to show you what happened, show you who did it to us, which is really weird, tell you how we're fighting back.
00:02:18.280 And most importantly, I need to ask you for help. I have to, because unlike 99% of journalists in Canada, we don't take money from Justin Trudeau's media bailout.
00:02:26.800 We rely 100% on viewers like you. That's why we can be independent. That's why we were banned.
00:02:32.900 You might remember this happened to us once before back in 2016.
00:02:36.960 Rachel Notley ordered an armed sheriff to kick out our chief reporter, Sheila Gunn-Reed.
00:02:42.280 What a bully Rachel Notley was. She was furious because Sheila wrote a best-selling book exposing the NDP called The Destroyer.
00:02:51.360 So this was Notley's attempt at revenge.
00:02:55.280 Now Notley's ban was universally denounced. Remember, that was before newspapers started to take money from Trudeau.
00:03:00.840 So they were still somewhat independent back then.
00:03:03.600 Here's the National Post at the time, calling Notley's move a stupid decision and, quote, totally and inexcusably idiotic.
00:03:13.660 After taking a beating from newspapers like the National Post, Notley finally backed down and let Sheila back in.
00:03:19.920 But the National Post has changed a lot in the last five years.
00:03:23.500 It's lost many of its best writers. It's not the same anymore.
00:03:26.480 It's thinner than ever, and much of what they print is just cheap wire copy stories written by liberal journalists at other newspapers.
00:03:35.220 Post Media now takes $140,000 each week from Justin Trudeau's media bailout.
00:03:42.120 It's actually the largest recipient in Canada.
00:03:46.020 National Post staff are actually trying to join the far-left Unifor Journalists Union,
00:03:51.640 the one that uses union dues to campaign against conservatives.
00:03:54.340 It's a shadow of the National Post where I used to work 20 years ago.
00:03:59.000 Just last month, 30 National Post reporters signed a letter saying that their Star columnist, Rex Murphy,
00:04:05.280 should never have been allowed to write that Canada isn't inherently racist.
00:04:10.180 Seriously, other than Rex Murphy and Conrad Black,
00:04:13.700 there's not much difference between the Post and the Toronto Star anymore.
00:04:17.740 And I tell you this because you're not going to believe this.
00:04:20.280 The decision to ban us yesterday was made by the National Post.
00:04:26.960 I'm serious.
00:04:28.140 Here's the two-line letter they sent our lawyers banning Sheila and Keehan.
00:04:32.540 I'll read you the whole thing.
00:04:34.080 It's sent from a National Post email during office hours by a National Post employee signing it as a National Post employee.
00:04:42.340 Let me read it from Tyler Dawson, tdawson at postmedia.com, to Michael Swanberg and Kelly Clark.
00:04:50.620 Those are our Edmonton lawyers.
00:04:53.240 Subject, application by Sheila Gunn-Reed and Keehan Bexty to join the Alberta Legislature Press Gallery.
00:04:58.880 Good morning.
00:05:01.340 I have been elected as president of the Alberta Legislature Press Gallery Association as of our annual general meeting this morning.
00:05:08.140 I'm writing to inform you that the gallery has voted to reject the applications of Sheila Gunn-Reed and Keehan Bexty
00:05:13.680 of the Rebel News Network Limited for membership to the Alberta Legislature Press Gallery Association.
00:05:19.680 Take care.
00:05:20.940 Tyler Dawson, Alberta correspondent, National Post.
00:05:26.220 Here's Tyler Dawson.
00:05:27.620 He's exactly what I'd expect him to look like.
00:05:31.160 He was one of the National Post leftists who signed that letter demanding that Rex Murphy not be allowed to write conservative things.
00:05:38.600 Now he's trying to censor us.
00:05:40.860 You can read his letter for yourself at letusreport.com.
00:05:43.680 In fact, can I recommend you click on over to letusreport.com?
00:05:47.140 Because this story has actually been percolating for a month.
00:05:50.400 There have been a lot of lawyers' letters going back and forth behind the scenes before now.
00:05:54.600 We didn't publicize this because we didn't want to make a fuss.
00:05:57.820 We just wanted access to the public legislature to do our jobs as journalists.
00:06:02.480 I don't know what the National Post has to do with that.
00:06:05.540 We didn't want to fight with them.
00:06:07.180 We just wanted to report on the politicians there.
00:06:10.080 But as you can see, we won't be allowed to because the National Post says so.
00:06:14.960 See, the legislature press gallery controls who has access.
00:06:21.160 Now it's tiny, this press gallery.
00:06:23.100 So many reporters have been laid off.
00:06:25.080 So the press gallery is now dominated by Post Media because they own most of the newspapers in Canada.
00:06:31.240 There used to be a few competing newspaper chains, but then Post Media bought out the Sun Media chain in a huge anti-competitive merger.
00:06:40.860 So Post Media actually owns all the big daily newspapers in Alberta, the Calgary Herald and the Calgary Sun, the Edmonton Journal and the Edmonton Sun.
00:06:52.020 They also own the National Post.
00:06:53.680 They have the five biggest papers in Alberta.
00:06:55.440 And they just decided to keep us out.
00:06:59.060 They don't want the competition, which is funny because when Post Media bought out Sun Media in the merger,
00:07:04.860 giving them both newspapers in Calgary and Edmonton, Post Media told the Federal Competition Bureau that they would protect competition and diversity for readers.
00:07:19.720 In fact, the Competition Bureau had a five-month investigation into the subject,
00:07:23.780 and Post Media swore on the stack of Bibles that they would never act in anti-competitive ways.
00:07:30.860 Well, they lied.
00:07:32.120 And here's the official Competition Bureau ruling.
00:07:36.340 Let me quote.
00:07:37.940 Based on an extensive five-month review, the Bureau has determined that the proposed transaction is unlikely to result in a substantial lessening
00:07:45.540 or prevention of competition in any relevant market.
00:07:49.100 Yeah.
00:07:50.060 And they actually cite a few reasons for this, including existing competition from free local daily newspapers
00:07:57.040 and the increasing competitive pressures from digital alternatives in an evolving media marketplace.
00:08:04.000 Well, all those free local daily newspapers in Alberta, they've shut down.
00:08:09.200 All of them.
00:08:10.200 And increasing competition from digital alternatives?
00:08:13.380 Yeah, that's us.
00:08:14.740 And they just banned us.
00:08:17.260 The increasingly left-wing, increasingly pro-censorship, Post Media, just banned us.
00:08:23.600 They're only real competition in Alberta.
00:08:25.420 You'll notice in the letter from Post Media, they don't tell us why they banned us.
00:08:30.960 They gave us no reasons.
00:08:32.620 They didn't let us attend any hearing on the subject.
00:08:36.400 They don't have any appeal process.
00:08:39.680 And that guy who made the decision, the president of this tiny little censorship club,
00:08:44.360 there's only about a dozen members in it.
00:08:46.220 Tyler Dawson, well, he has a long-running vendetta against us.
00:08:50.600 He hates us.
00:08:51.740 He can't control his hatred for us.
00:08:54.320 The National Post has allowed him to publish his malicious comments about us for years.
00:09:01.440 Now, that's all fine.
00:09:02.680 I mean, whatever floats your boat at the new National Post.
00:09:05.520 But like a biased judge, he should have recused himself from the decision to ban or accredit us.
00:09:12.720 And he didn't.
00:09:13.560 I mean, look at this.
00:09:14.040 Just for a few samples.
00:09:15.920 Look at this one.
00:09:17.320 Ezra is a hugely fringe figure.
00:09:19.800 All right.
00:09:20.820 Rebel news are jackasses.
00:09:23.000 All right.
00:09:24.340 Holy shit.
00:09:25.480 This is among the most god-awful thing I've seen from the rebel in a while.
00:09:29.760 Or this one.
00:09:30.680 Laugh out loud at the rebel.
00:09:32.620 Or this one.
00:09:33.640 Jesus Christ.
00:09:34.620 Reading the retweeted by the rebel wave of lunatics in my mentions.
00:09:38.040 He's not shy about swearing.
00:09:39.660 Here's a shot at Kean.
00:09:42.220 Laugh out loud.
00:09:43.000 The trenchant analysis we all expect from the kid at the rebel.
00:09:46.700 And my favorite.
00:09:49.440 Ezra continues his ceaseless campaign to be the biggest prick in Canadian media.
00:09:55.640 He was in that tweet.
00:09:57.040 He was defending the CBC and Justin Trudeau.
00:09:59.720 Now, I should tell you, I don't really mind any of these tweets.
00:10:02.860 They're a bit mean.
00:10:03.880 But hey, I dish it out so I can take it.
00:10:06.660 I think you can see it's not the same National Post that Conrad Black built 20 years ago.
00:10:11.620 And you can tell why they want to fire Rex Murphy and join Unifor if this is who runs the Post now.
00:10:17.260 You can tell just by reading them that they're a left-wing newspaper.
00:10:20.000 Now, with a handful of exceptions, it's not your father's National Post.
00:10:24.080 But I'm actually not mad at these tweets.
00:10:25.980 I don't care.
00:10:26.580 All I'm saying is how can someone who has had a five-year vocal feud against us, and he singles out Kean in particular, how can he then pretend to sit in judgment of us and Kean in particular, like he's some sort of neutral arbiter of who can or can't join the press gallery and get access to the legislature?
00:10:47.800 I mean, why should we have to depend on our hateful competitor for the right to walk into the legislature building to cover what the premier says, what the opposition says?
00:10:57.500 It's not post-media's legislature.
00:11:00.520 Our rights are given to us or enshrined in the Constitution.
00:11:04.440 They belong to everyone, actually.
00:11:06.760 Our press pass, the only press pass we need, is Section 2B of the Charter.
00:11:11.800 Let me read it for you.
00:11:12.760 I don't know if they ever read it at the National Post.
00:11:15.040 Yeah, I don't actually need Tyler Dawson's permission or the National Post's permission.
00:11:35.020 And they don't need mine.
00:11:36.720 But imagine a guy who hates us so badly actually having the power to deny us the ability to do our job.
00:11:42.000 Post media lied to the Competition Bureau when they said they weren't a threat to competition.
00:11:49.680 They personally blocked us out of spite and rivalry.
00:11:54.740 I can see why.
00:11:55.680 I mean, I really don't know much about Tyler Dawson.
00:11:58.100 I bet today is the first time you've ever heard his name either.
00:12:01.600 I Googled him and I actually couldn't believe what I saw.
00:12:04.540 Look at this.
00:12:04.940 Check this out.
00:12:05.460 Here's just some videos I found of him when I Googled him.
00:12:09.660 He's talking about the news on YouTube.
00:12:11.920 That's what we do over here at Rebel.
00:12:13.680 But this video here, it doesn't even have 25 views on it.
00:12:18.940 Look at that view count.
00:12:19.840 Just nobody.
00:12:21.780 Here's one he did with about 10 views.
00:12:25.640 Here's something he did for the Ottawa Citizen.
00:12:27.400 That's a pretty big newspaper.
00:12:28.400 How do you do a video on YouTube that gets, you know, 10, 15, 20 views?
00:12:35.100 How do you do that?
00:12:36.920 And this is the guy keeping out Sheila and Kian?
00:12:41.000 You remember when Kian did a story about Black Lives Matter going to the Alberta town of Innisfail just a month ago?
00:12:47.560 Well, look at the view count on that video by Kian.
00:12:50.640 One million views.
00:12:52.360 Just cross the one million view mark this week.
00:12:54.200 Imagine some obscure leftist reporter who can only get 10 or 20 people to watch his stuff.
00:13:01.380 Telling our reporters who get a million views on a single story that they're not allowed to walk into a public building to ask questions of public officials.
00:13:13.040 And what gets me is that this is all being done with the knowledge and approval of Post Media.
00:13:17.880 Every one of his Twitter comments was on a certified, verified National Post Twitter account.
00:13:25.160 Again, I haven't made a fuss about this stuff in public.
00:13:28.500 I don't know if I told you, but last year we sent Kian to Winnipeg to do a great story about a young woman who didn't want to wear some rainbow poppy on Remembrance Day.
00:13:38.140 So Kian flew to Winnipeg.
00:13:39.540 We paid a lot of money.
00:13:40.720 He flew to Winnipeg.
00:13:41.920 And Kian took this great photo.
00:13:44.020 And he did a great story.
00:13:45.420 Got thousands of views.
00:13:46.440 But then Post Media just stole his photo.
00:13:50.820 Just took it and used it without asking.
00:13:55.380 And they sold ads on Kian's photo.
00:13:59.280 I'm serious.
00:14:00.060 So I got so mad at Post Media.
00:14:01.600 I wrote them a scorching email and I sent them an invoice for the photograph because they stole it and they used it.
00:14:07.100 They never paid.
00:14:08.240 Seriously, the biggest, richest newspaper company in Canada, Post Media, stole Kian's photo, didn't give him credit for it, and didn't pay for it.
00:14:18.620 And then incredibly, even after I wrote them a scorching letter, they did it again, even worse.
00:14:25.020 Again with Kian.
00:14:25.960 We flew Kian to Vancouver to cover one of the trials of that character, Jonathan Yaniv.
00:14:32.480 And Yaniv saw Kian and ran up to him and attacked him.
00:14:36.480 It was madness.
00:14:37.740 Kian filmed it, as you can see.
00:14:40.040 Well, get this.
00:14:40.740 Post Media saw that great video.
00:14:42.500 And they illegally downloaded it, stripped off our brand from it, re-uploaded it to their own YouTube page, put on their own Post Media branding, and then put ads on it to sell and profit from.
00:14:58.680 Even after that Winnipeg fiasco.
00:15:00.720 So I invoiced them again.
00:15:02.600 And they didn't pay.
00:15:05.000 They were doing this again and again.
00:15:06.520 So I sued them in small claims court.
00:15:08.540 I mean, we're a little bit sick of a monopolistic mega company that takes $140,000 a week from taxpayers just stealing our stuff.
00:15:20.960 You can see the whole lawsuit on our website, letusreport.com.
00:15:24.380 We actually filed that lawsuit against them actually exactly six months ago.
00:15:29.620 And they haven't even bothered to file a statement of defense.
00:15:32.940 They think they're above the law.
00:15:34.560 They think they're better than us.
00:15:35.920 Actually, they don't because they steal our work and pass it off as their own.
00:15:39.700 They're not better than us.
00:15:41.520 Tyler Dawson is some loser who literally gets a dozen people to look at his stuff.
00:15:46.940 And he calls us potty mouth names on Twitter.
00:15:50.420 But he's part of Trudeau's team now.
00:15:52.320 He's on the Trudeau payroll now, as is the whole National Post and all of Post Media.
00:15:56.740 And he wants to join the Trudeau Union now.
00:15:59.560 So, of course, he's going to want to ban us from the Alberta Press Gallery.
00:16:03.500 We're the last independent folks out there.
00:16:05.920 So I'm here to say, no, not today.
00:16:07.740 No, we're fighting back.
00:16:09.380 Here's how.
00:16:11.000 First, our Alberta-based lawyers have written directly to the Speaker of the Alberta Legislature.
00:16:16.160 And we've also sent the letter to the Minister of Infrastructure there.
00:16:19.920 Those two elected officials are actually in control of the legislature, not some left-wing journalist with a potty mouth.
00:16:26.980 So we're asking the Speaker to recognize that the current left-wing, post-media-controlled Trudeau Press Gallery in Edmonton, that they're negligent in their duties, and that the Speaker of the Legislature should just recognize the independent press gallery.
00:16:45.000 You know, the one that Candace Malcolm founded.
00:16:47.140 And we're already a member of the independent press gallery.
00:16:50.520 So here's a key paragraph from our lawyer's letter to the Speaker of the Legislature today.
00:16:55.340 You can read the whole thing at LetUsReport.com.
00:16:57.300 It's too long to read in whole now.
00:16:58.460 But let me just read one paragraph.
00:17:00.660 To resolve this situation, we propose that the Independent Press Gallery of Canada be given the same recognition and standing as the press gallery in Alberta.
00:17:10.140 As noted above, the Independent Press Gallery is an association of journalists whose members agree to adhere to journalistic standards and practices.
00:17:18.500 And Rebel News journalists are members of this organization.
00:17:21.080 Members of the Independent Press Gallery, who regularly report on Alberta politics, ought to be given the same access and privileges afforded to the traditional press gallery.
00:17:31.100 Now, I have some reason to be optimistic.
00:17:33.180 Here's the Minister of Infrastructure answering a question about this just a few weeks ago.
00:17:37.640 We've been told by the Speaker's office that it's under your purview, actually, as Minister of Infrastructure.
00:17:43.500 The press gallery operates at your pleasure, basically, because they take up your office space.
00:17:48.280 I'm wondering if you would support the idea of actually allowing or forcing the press gallery to respond to our demands to join it.
00:17:58.640 I don't know.
00:18:00.740 I had to catch up on that.
00:18:02.700 But I would be open.
00:18:05.180 I think it should be open for all points of view.
00:18:10.160 Now, just a second question.
00:18:11.960 I'm not sure if you're aware the Independent Press Gallery was just created by Candice Malcolm.
00:18:16.360 She's currently the president of it.
00:18:18.200 And it's open to left-wing, right-wing folks, everyone who doesn't take government bailouts.
00:18:23.420 That's the only stipulation outside of other general journalistic practices.
00:18:27.640 Would you be open to allowing them specific access to these office spaces?
00:18:31.940 I understand it is self-regulating.
00:18:34.380 And as far as Alberta is concerned, my personal opinion, I think we should respect the diversity of all of Alberta.
00:18:42.960 And we should be open for different opinions.
00:18:47.280 That's my view.
00:18:48.800 Would that include allowing the Independent Press Gallery office space and access to the legislature and the proceedings within it?
00:18:55.760 As I said, I'm open for it.
00:18:57.800 But I had to look into that.
00:18:59.460 And I know they are self-regulating.
00:19:02.080 But from my point of view, based on what beliefs I have, having run for Wildrose, I'm open for all points of view.
00:19:12.840 So hopefully the post-media-controlled press gallery will just be replaced by a real press gallery that actually, you know, respects freedom of the press.
00:19:22.360 I should tell you there's a whole other story here, too, of the post-media press gallery in the legislature colluding with the NDP to get a security guard to throw Keane off the property a few weeks ago.
00:19:34.840 So we've got a bunch of lawyers' letters on that craziness.
00:19:37.900 I haven't published them yet, but I've decided to put them up on that same website, letusreport.com.
00:19:44.080 If you want to see how the post-media press gallery literally told security guards at the legislature that we were not journalists, so we should be thrown out.
00:19:52.560 And they did this in collaboration with Rachel Notley's NDP.
00:19:57.520 It's all there.
00:19:58.600 This is Iran-style stuff.
00:20:00.820 This is China-style stuff.
00:20:02.480 I'm serious.
00:20:03.220 If you're a subscriber to the National Post, can I ask why?
00:20:09.320 Is it because 10 or 20 years ago they were conservative?
00:20:13.540 Now they're literally banning journalists, actually telling security guards to throw us off the legislature.
00:20:19.920 Now the National Post, they're the cancel culture people.
00:20:24.680 So maybe the Alberta Speaker of the Legislature will let us in.
00:20:27.440 Maybe not.
00:20:27.840 I don't know.
00:20:28.960 It still doesn't fix the big problem here.
00:20:32.040 The active collusion by our competitors to cancel us, deplatform us, limit the number of reporters allowed, not just for us, but for anyone.
00:20:40.240 That's a monopoly problem.
00:20:41.940 It's a government problem, really, since the government approved one company buying up all the other newspapers in Canada.
00:20:47.900 So that's the next letter I want to show you here.
00:20:51.740 This is from our Toronto lawyers.
00:20:53.400 There's a lot of lawyers involved here.
00:20:55.140 And it's based on the Competition Act of Canada.
00:20:58.800 Could I read three paragraphs of it to you?
00:21:00.720 I know that's a lot.
00:21:02.020 But it sums up our legal case that we have launched today against the National Post.
00:21:08.180 Let me read the whole letter.
00:21:09.260 I mean, I won't read the whole letter.
00:21:10.460 You can read the whole letter at lettucereport.com.
00:21:13.220 But look at this.
00:21:13.840 By the way, I just want to explain two things.
00:21:16.460 ALPGA stands for Alberta Legislature Press Gallery Association.
00:21:21.760 And when we say the word denial, we mean them denying our access to the legislature.
00:21:26.740 Okay.
00:21:27.300 Here's from the letter.
00:21:28.140 The ALPGA's denial of membership to Rebel News serves to demonstrate the anti-competitive nature
00:21:35.740 and practices of Post Media and the ALPGA in particular, their efforts to prevent and
00:21:43.160 lessen competition in Alberta's media landscape.
00:21:46.320 As was the concern of the Competition Bureau upon Post Media's acquisition of Quebec or Media
00:21:51.980 Inc.'s English-language newspapers, and despite Post Media's claims to the contrary at the
00:21:56.860 time, it appears from the above-noted conduct that this transaction resulted in a substantial
00:22:02.800 lessening or prevention of competition in the media market.
00:22:07.540 Our clients are hereby seeking an immediate reversal of the denial by the ALPGA, failing which
00:22:14.440 we have instructions to commence formal proceedings against Post Media pursuant to the Competition
00:22:20.720 Act, and then just some legal details, 1985, Chapter 34, which regulates anti-competitive
00:22:27.820 business practices in Canada.
00:22:29.180 In the interim, we trust Post Media will preserve all records for the purpose of these proceedings,
00:22:35.060 including but not limited to internal correspondence, the grounds for the denial, the rules and bylaws
00:22:41.540 applicable to such decisions, and the list of members that made the decision.
00:22:45.180 In addition, we understand that you have publicly declared your personal animus towards Rebel News
00:22:50.220 and trust that you will preserve all public statements, including tweets referring to our
00:22:55.240 clients, and confirm whether you and or other members recused themselves from the vote to deny
00:23:00.960 Rebel News membership in relation thereto.
00:23:04.300 Yeah, hey, Tyler, we've taken screenshots of all your nasty, bad-faith tweets, but don't
00:23:11.340 delete your nasty internal emails about us either, okay?
00:23:15.700 Judges don't like it when you do that.
00:23:17.780 That's destroying evidence, so don't do that.
00:23:21.460 Look, I still like Rex Murphy and Conrad Black, and there are one or two others in the National
00:23:26.220 Post I still read.
00:23:27.220 Terry Corcoran.
00:23:29.060 Barbara Kay was pushed out just the other day.
00:23:31.320 I've encouraged her, and I've encouraged the Post to get her back.
00:23:34.320 But look, true conservatives like Barbara Kay are being attacked daily from the inside by
00:23:41.160 the Tyler Dawson's of the National Post, which brings me back to my next point.
00:23:45.940 Why are you still subscribing to the National Post?
00:23:51.160 Is it because you liked the paper back in 1998?
00:23:53.880 Or maybe you liked it in 2008?
00:23:59.500 When was the last time it was truly conservative?
00:24:01.940 It bashes Donald Trump, just like the CBC, all the time.
00:24:05.480 It now officially believes in the theory of man-made global warming.
00:24:09.860 It publicly humiliated Rex Murphy just a few weeks ago.
00:24:14.000 You know, back in the day, they published more than 100 columns of thoughtful, critical
00:24:18.980 commentary about radical Islam from Dr. Daniel Pipes.
00:24:21.900 Now, they've banned him from the newspaper and called him an Islamophobe.
00:24:26.560 That's what they call you.
00:24:28.640 Look, the National Post is sold out for whatever reason.
00:24:31.200 I'm guessing it's the free money from Trudeau.
00:24:34.940 So can I ask you again, why do you still subscribe to it?
00:24:38.780 Is it just out of habit?
00:24:40.740 Or is it maybe because they have your credit card number on file and it's just too much of
00:24:44.220 a hassle to cancel?
00:24:47.360 Well, how about the fact that the National Post has been stealing our photos and videos
00:24:51.860 for nearly a year, smashing us and bashing us in public wherever they can?
00:24:56.240 They wrote this huge piece demonizing us, but they steal our stuff and won't pay for it.
00:25:01.200 And now they've just moved from simply being mean to us to literally deplatforming us, banning
00:25:07.260 us, censoring us.
00:25:09.180 The National Post and their Edmonton representative writing on a National Post stationery, Tyler
00:25:16.620 Dawson, just banned us from doing our job.
00:25:21.600 Just banned us with no reason or explanation, no appeal that we can take, nothing other than
00:25:27.060 his hatred.
00:25:27.560 If you're a National Post subscriber, they're taking your money to pay Tyler Dawson and the
00:25:34.520 other 30 journalists at the National Post who called for Rex Murphy to be banned, and
00:25:39.060 they just decided yesterday that they want to destroy us, Rebel News, they just decided.
00:25:46.120 How about taking your money back?
00:25:48.480 When they deplatformed Sheila and Kian, when they ban us, they're really banning you.
00:25:54.200 They hate Sheila.
00:25:55.300 How is that even possible?
00:25:56.420 She's so nice.
00:25:57.560 They hate Kian because he's so tough on liberals.
00:26:00.120 And they hate me, of course.
00:26:02.060 But you know that means they hate you too, right?
00:26:05.700 Do me a favor.
00:26:06.600 Cut them off.
00:26:08.100 They want to cancel you?
00:26:09.420 Well, cancel them.
00:26:10.340 I don't mean ban them.
00:26:12.040 I mean, if you're a subscriber to the National Post, cancel your subscription.
00:26:16.720 I know it's a habit.
00:26:20.400 Well, start a new habit somewhere else that doesn't hate you.
00:26:22.780 I'm going to try and convince my dad.
00:26:24.320 He was a day one subscriber since 1998, 22 years.
00:26:28.820 I'm going to try and convince him to quit because they're using his money to attack me and us
00:26:34.140 and my dad.
00:26:36.780 So give the National Post a call during business hours at 416-383-2500.
00:26:47.180 Now, when you call through, they'll give you some automated options.
00:26:50.320 It's not a real person that answers right away.
00:26:53.120 But canceling is not one of those options.
00:26:55.660 They're tricky that way, aren't they?
00:26:57.020 You have to press zero and speak to a real live attendant.
00:27:00.740 Now, be polite.
00:27:01.780 Remember that the blue-collar person answering your phone call is not a left-wing journalist.
00:27:07.780 It's just a working stiff who has nothing to do with the cancel culture that's taken over the journalism of the paper.
00:27:13.560 So please be friendly to the person you get on the phone.
00:27:17.960 It's not their fault.
00:27:20.080 But cancel your subscription and tell them why.
00:27:24.140 Call them up during office hours at 416-383-2500.
00:27:29.400 If you forget that phone number, it's at letusreport.com.
00:27:33.360 Now, one or two cancellations won't make a difference.
00:27:36.500 Ten people canceling and explaining why?
00:27:39.780 That'll be noted and told to the bosses.
00:27:43.820 If 100 people cancel, well, that's starting to be a problem for them.
00:27:49.760 What if 1,000 people cancel their National Post subscriptions?
00:27:56.220 Then that's a real problem, isn't it?
00:27:58.540 If I'm reading this right, the National Post actually charges $26 a month
00:28:02.920 to read their ever-thinner, ever-more-liberal newspaper.
00:28:06.440 That's more than $300 a year.
00:28:08.780 I'm shocked that anyone would pay that, but I guess if they take it off your credit card
00:28:12.560 automatically, you sort of forget.
00:28:14.200 How about cancel and put that money back in your pocket?
00:28:18.860 You can even subscribe to our premium content, which is just $80 a year,
00:28:22.860 and it's actually conservative.
00:28:25.040 But it's really about telling the National Post that they can't take you for granted anymore.
00:28:30.520 They claim to be for free speech, sort of,
00:28:33.380 but they just banned us.
00:28:37.020 If 1,000 rebels who were subscribers to the National Post cancel,
00:28:41.660 my math says that's actually $300,000 out of their pockets.
00:28:46.540 They'll pay attention.
00:28:47.300 Now, don't worry.
00:28:49.460 They'll be fine.
00:28:50.900 Like I say, they still get $140,000 per week from their boss, Justin Trudeau, and it shows.
00:29:00.620 Go to LetUsReport.com.
00:29:02.060 You can read all the documents I've referred to here today, plus a bunch more.
00:29:06.440 We've spent, you know, speaking of money, we've spent about $30,000 fighting with this Alberta
00:29:11.640 Press Gallery all summer, and the Competition Bureau complaint will surely cost us even more.
00:29:17.060 If you can help chip into our fight, I'd sure appreciate it.
00:29:21.220 Post Media is spending Trudeau's bailout money on lawyers.
00:29:24.680 We can't.
00:29:25.640 We have to crowdfund it ourselves.
00:29:27.700 Maybe do this.
00:29:28.620 Maybe call the Post to cancel your subscription,
00:29:32.780 and just take one month's subscription fee, $26,
00:29:36.480 and donate it to our LetUsReport.com legal fund.
00:29:41.820 I'm doing this because Sheila and Kean are great reporters,
00:29:45.420 and it is outrageous that our competition, or anyone,
00:29:49.840 can ban Sheila and Kean from going to the legislature.
00:29:53.440 That's nuts.
00:29:54.340 But I'm also doing this for you, our rebel viewers.
00:29:57.820 And I'm even doing this in a roundabout way for that loser, potty-mouthed Tyler Dawson.
00:30:04.640 Because the freedom of the press that we are fighting for
00:30:07.600 is actually the freedom of the press he uses every day.
00:30:11.040 To earn his living as a journalist.
00:30:14.080 I mean, look, no one reads his stuff,
00:30:15.820 but still, I believe he should have the right to do it.
00:30:20.860 Please go to LetUsReport.com.
00:30:22.800 Read all the documents for yourself.
00:30:24.700 And then phone up the National Post and cancel your subscription.
00:30:29.480 And tell them why.
00:30:31.720 Call 416-383-2500 during business hours to do that.
00:30:36.540 And if you can, please help me pay for my free speech lawyers to hold them to account.
00:30:42.700 Look, unlike the National Post, I don't take cash from Justin Trudeau.
00:30:46.800 And it shows.
00:30:48.700 Don't you think?
00:30:49.500 Welcome back.
00:31:02.020 Well, it sure feels like the Clinton Foundation.
00:31:05.440 Do you know what those were, eh?
00:31:07.180 Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton.
00:31:08.900 They would launder hundreds of millions of dollars through a charity
00:31:14.700 that somehow wound up in their own pockets.
00:31:18.260 Less than 10% of all the money to the Clinton Global Initiative
00:31:21.200 actually went to charitable projects.
00:31:24.400 The rest was hoovered up by them, their friends, and family.
00:31:28.260 Looks like we have that in Canada,
00:31:30.680 except for it's called We, or Me to We.
00:31:33.960 It's the Kielberger brothers, Craig and Mark Kielberger,
00:31:38.880 who know how to manipulate politicians.
00:31:42.380 I got one word for you.
00:31:44.260 Money.
00:31:45.360 That's how.
00:31:46.180 Paying massive speaking fees for politicians to come speak.
00:31:50.620 That's not a speaking fee.
00:31:52.060 Politicians speak for free.
00:31:53.280 It's part of their job.
00:31:54.140 Parliament means to speak.
00:31:56.140 They love speaking to thousands of kids for free.
00:31:59.180 When you're paying someone $10,000, $20,000, $30,000,
00:32:01.600 it ain't a speaking fee.
00:32:03.960 It's money laundering for a bribe,
00:32:06.180 not just in the fees, but the fancy travel.
00:32:09.320 And we have learned that We has paid over $300,000
00:32:14.740 to the close personal family of Justin Trudeau,
00:32:18.680 and they only started after he became Prime Minister.
00:32:22.840 Well, today, the Kielbergers were in front of the House of Commons,
00:32:26.660 and they answered a few fairly well-put questions.
00:32:29.900 We learned so much already.
00:32:32.820 And joining me to go through a couple of clips is our friend,
00:32:35.900 Kian Bextie, who has been heading up our WE coverage.
00:32:39.220 Great to see you again, Kian.
00:32:40.800 Hey, Ezra.
00:32:42.220 You know, I want to remind folks of last week,
00:32:44.240 you rolled out something called AuditWe.
00:32:46.440 A-U-D-I-T, AuditWe.com.
00:32:51.460 Why don't you refresh the memory of our viewers what AuditWe.com was about
00:32:55.360 before we get into today's news.
00:32:58.040 Yeah, so there's a series of infractions that the WE organization,
00:33:04.000 the Kielberger conglomerate, these infractions range from money that goes to a real estate venture of theirs
00:33:12.940 to them sort of speaking with politicians in ways that they really should be registered lobbyists.
00:33:20.860 There's about four main points to our document, a dossier, that our lawyers have actually drafted,
00:33:26.840 and we sent that document to the CRA so that they can look at it.
00:33:31.920 It has all of their infractions and all of the footnotes and laws all connected to it.
00:33:38.140 So the auditors don't have to really lift a finger,
00:33:40.780 but someone just did all their work for them.
00:33:43.760 Months' worth of work that the auditors would have had to have done.
00:33:49.300 Our lawyers did it for them.
00:33:50.420 We want to make it as easy as possible so that WE is actually audited,
00:33:54.440 so that those auditors, you know, open up the books, crack them open,
00:33:57.260 and see exactly what laws they broke, what charitable laws they broke,
00:34:02.020 doing political activity so that they can be decertified.
00:34:07.220 Really, that's the goal.
00:34:08.340 Because no other charity would be given the amount of slack or power that the Kielbergers have gotten.
00:34:15.420 Yeah, I think there's actually four different varieties of illegal complaint we have.
00:34:19.520 Support for a political party, obviously, but also doing non-charitable things,
00:34:24.900 acquiring massive amounts of real estate, self-dealing.
00:34:28.340 It's all laid out there.
00:34:29.260 I encourage people to go to auditwe.com.
00:34:31.200 We also have a petition there, and last I checked,
00:34:34.180 we had about 4,500 signatures demanding that the CRA audit it.
00:34:37.900 Okay, I think we're going to have to update that letter with some of the news
00:34:41.800 out of Parliament Hill today.
00:34:43.380 We have a couple of clips.
00:34:45.340 Let's watch a couple of them, and then I'd like your feedback on them afterwards.
00:34:49.520 Here, let's take a look at the first one now.
00:34:53.360 Now, when your organization booked the Kenya and Ecuador trips,
00:35:01.460 were they booked specifically as an accounts receivable?
00:35:07.600 So we charities, similar to many other humanitarian organizations,
00:35:11.940 invite prospective donors, people who vet on behalf of companies and foundations,
00:35:15.980 to witness the development projects, what they do.
00:35:18.020 So the answer to that is no?
00:35:19.800 Correct.
00:35:20.020 It was not an accounts receivable.
00:35:21.840 It was a complementary trip, right?
00:35:25.440 That's what your statement said.
00:35:26.800 Is that correct?
00:35:28.300 Sir, if I can just finish the statement.
00:35:30.240 So it is to host individuals who have an interest to witness
00:35:33.400 their development work on the ground.
00:35:34.720 And to answer your question, it was seen in our mind as a complementary hosting,
00:35:39.520 given they were already in the country in Kenya,
00:35:41.520 and were coming in to simply stay with us in Ecuador to look at this from a development lens.
00:35:45.860 Thank you.
00:35:46.240 So no accounts receivable.
00:35:48.700 So did you hide to Mr. Morneau the fact that the trip would be complementary?
00:35:57.200 The arrangements for the trip were entirely done through an invitation to Ms. McCain
00:36:01.540 and entirely arranged with her and her team.
00:36:05.540 So I don't know whether there was any clarity or conversations that followed.
00:36:10.540 In our mind, it was an invitation to a very prominent Canadian family, Ms. McCain,
00:36:15.660 who's very philanthropic and very beneficial.
00:36:18.700 So just to explain to our viewers, the reason why they're in different offices
00:36:23.920 is because during the pandemic, Parliament refuses to sit as normal.
00:36:28.400 So you have both the question askers, in this case, a conservative MP named Michael Cooper,
00:36:33.200 and the question answerers, the Kielbergers, basically appearing via Zoom or Skype.
00:36:39.900 Kian, what we learned there is that it was absolutely a gift.
00:36:43.960 It was not a gift that they expected to be repaid.
00:36:48.840 It was not an accounts receivable.
00:36:50.400 It was a complimentary luxury trip.
00:36:54.020 I think he fibbed a bit when he said, oh, they were in Ecuador in Kenya anyways.
00:36:58.680 It didn't happen that way.
00:37:00.860 But they got free luxury trips for Bill Morneau, the finance minister,
00:37:04.920 who, surprise, was approving government cash to them.
00:37:08.360 They pretty much admitted it there, didn't they?
00:37:11.580 Yeah.
00:37:12.140 So they were under oath there, Ezra.
00:37:13.940 So they were obligated to answer truthfully, something that they wouldn't have done otherwise.
00:37:19.140 And just for background on this, this was the trip where Bill Morneau owed over $40,000 to the weed charity,
00:37:28.580 because if he didn't technically owe that money to them,
00:37:32.460 he would have been in contravention of a bunch of ethics rules that ministers are obligated to follow.
00:37:40.340 You're not allowed to accept gifts over a certain amount, blah, blah, blah.
00:37:43.020 Not allowed to accept travel.
00:37:44.240 You know the drill.
00:37:45.120 So he said just before the day before he testified, Bill Morneau paid back a bunch of expenses that he just happened to find.
00:37:53.520 So we were being led to believe that this was something that he owed,
00:37:56.360 and it was his own personal financial mistake that he didn't pay it back.
00:38:00.220 Now that the Kielberger brothers are testifying, well, who's lying here?
00:38:04.480 The Kielberger brothers say that it was complimentary.
00:38:06.840 They never expected that money back in the first place,
00:38:08.940 which means they gave him that benefit, that package, that travel, that luxury.
00:38:13.640 As he was minister of finance, they just gave it to him, which is in contravention of those laws.
00:38:18.360 So this is a huge deal.
00:38:20.060 Yeah.
00:38:20.300 Another little fib there.
00:38:21.540 You heard him kept saying McCain, McCain.
00:38:25.080 That's Bill Morneau's wife's name.
00:38:27.240 Craig Kielberger, a slippery little fish there.
00:38:29.720 He wouldn't say the name Morneau because, obviously, he's trying to save his political pal, Bill Morneau.
00:38:37.680 But, you know, he said McCain, McCain, McCain.
00:38:41.100 Well, Mr. McCain, otherwise known as Bill Morneau, was the one who got the free trip.
00:38:46.340 He's the finance minister.
00:38:47.760 So you can see that the Kielberger brothers are very oily, very weaselly.
00:38:53.120 Even when they are telling the truth, they do so in the slickest way possible.
00:38:59.520 I wouldn't answer the question head on.
00:39:01.780 Called him Mr. McCain instead of Mr. Morneau.
00:39:04.000 But I think you're right.
00:39:05.140 They actually did answer the essence of it truthfully, which is they gave a free gift.
00:39:11.040 Now, I don't think it's illegal to give a free gift.
00:39:13.840 I think it's illegal for the politician to take the free gift.
00:39:18.020 And there's a very special rule when it comes to travel.
00:39:20.000 Well, foreign countries love to give free travel to MPs all the time.
00:39:24.240 But everyone knows that's a kind of a bribe, so it has to be disclosed.
00:39:28.140 Taiwan, China, Israel, these are all countries that lobby Canadian MPs.
00:39:33.020 So they have to disclose the gift and the amount of its value.
00:39:38.360 Bill Morneau, crooked Bill Morneau, Mr. McCain, did not do so.
00:39:43.580 I think it's a fireable fence.
00:39:45.540 Frankly, I think he should be charged criminally.
00:39:47.600 But we know that's not going to happen.
00:39:50.000 Yeah, of course, John, because the people that would be charging him criminally would be Brenda Lucky, who you know very well.
00:39:55.720 Ezra is the hand-picked commissioner of the RCMP that has Justin Trudeau's back 100 percent of the time,
00:40:03.240 whether it's on political operations in B.C.
00:40:06.040 or whether it's in operational activity with lawbreaking in B.C.
00:40:11.240 or whether it's political activity in Ottawa, Brenda Lucky will never do anything that hurts Justin Trudeau or his friends.
00:40:16.880 Yeah, we know that from the SNC-Lavalin matter.
00:40:19.320 Let's play one more clip from Parliament today.
00:40:21.600 Again, it's hard to imagine this in a big parliamentary hearing room because it's not.
00:40:26.200 It's in little video conferences.
00:40:28.100 But the effect was still there.
00:40:30.260 I think there's some bombshell news.
00:40:31.780 Let's take a look at one more clip.
00:40:34.020 How much was she paid, Ms. Margaret Trudeau paid, for speaking before November of 2015?
00:40:38.700 Sir, we did not engage her before November of 2015, from my best understanding.
00:40:47.340 Okay, so she was only ever paid after November of 2015?
00:40:52.180 It was at that point, sir, where We Days continues to grow and we need somebody to speak specifically on the issue of mental health.
00:40:58.260 And she came not as Madam Trudeau.
00:41:00.340 She came as somebody who's very focused on that issue, something that's really relevant, if I'm not mistaken, one in five Canadians.
00:41:05.520 One in five Canadians, and it's part of what we do.
00:41:07.380 We have the well-being finish.
00:41:07.980 You know, they've got that Trudeau style of evasiveness that, you know, there's some wonderful words.
00:41:16.420 Oleaginous is one of them.
00:41:18.320 You can see the root in there, oleo, from oil.
00:41:21.300 These oily brothers.
00:41:22.540 They've got that Trudeau style, that Trudeau hair.
00:41:25.300 They look at each other with that Trudeau gaze.
00:41:28.700 And they've got that lying feeling to them.
00:41:32.660 But I want to give these two liars credit.
00:41:35.680 They told the truth about the essence of it.
00:41:38.040 Like they tried to fudge, oh, did you know one in five Canadians has mental illness?
00:41:41.400 Oh, did you know that we really need?
00:41:42.700 Shut up, guys, and answer the question.
00:41:44.600 Did you ever pay Margaret Trudeau before her son was prime minister?
00:41:48.200 You could, if you push aside all the oil and all the weasel words, they actually did tell the truth.
00:41:55.160 Give them credit for that.
00:41:56.320 They never paid Margaret Trudeau until her son was prime minister.
00:42:00.180 And I should point out that Margaret Trudeau herself, the biggest scammer of all in the family.
00:42:04.900 Well, actually, that's Sophie Trudeau.
00:42:07.340 Margaret Trudeau went by Margaret Kemper.
00:42:10.540 She was married to Pierre Trudeau for a period of time, separated, I think, after seven years.
00:42:16.520 A very unhappy marriage.
00:42:18.680 He beat her repeatedly.
00:42:19.840 They were mutually unfaithful, but they technically stayed married until he was done as prime minister.
00:42:26.480 She immediately remarried, freed Kemper, and was married to him longer than she was together with Pierre Trudeau.
00:42:34.220 She changed her name to Margaret Kemper.
00:42:36.160 It was only after her son became prime minister and she could rent herself out as a speaker to oily folks like the Kielburgers that she started to call herself Margaret Trudeau again.
00:42:49.520 She didn't call herself by her maiden name.
00:42:51.960 She didn't call herself by her legal name.
00:42:54.660 She just called herself a Trudeau so she could get rich.
00:42:59.820 And a roundabout way of doing it.
00:43:01.820 These two lads admitted it.
00:43:04.560 Absolutely.
00:43:05.080 Margaret Trudeau has been important about two times in her life, when she was the husband of a prime minister and when she was the mother of a prime minister.
00:43:10.820 And she's capitalizing on that very, very clearly and obviously here.
00:43:16.500 The charity has no interest in, you know, random qualified people to talk about mental health, which they mentioned about six times, by the way.
00:43:26.140 That one stat, whenever they weren't able to actually say something or wanted to avoid answering a question honestly because they were under oath, they would go back to exactly what Justin Trudeau would do.
00:43:37.100 Like you said, they would go back to that fact.
00:43:38.980 Oh, did you know one in five young Canadians have this issue?
00:43:42.580 It's a terrible issue.
00:43:43.660 It's something we've got to deal with.
00:43:44.620 Just like Justin Trudeau will say something along the lines of, Canadians need to do better.
00:43:49.260 We know that.
00:43:49.860 We understand that.
00:43:50.860 Just these platitudes, they really mean nothing.
00:43:53.300 So it's clear from that line of questioning.
00:43:56.880 Not only are they still hiding more, and I bet you there's more to uncover, but they were paying Margaret Trudeau because she was Justin Trudeau's mother and for no other reason.
00:44:05.600 Yeah, and you'd think that someone who cares deeply about the charity of mental health would speak for free.
00:44:12.960 Justin Trudeau, of course, himself billed, you know, even when he was an MP, he would charge for speeches about mental health, his favorite charity.
00:44:22.920 So he would say, if it's your favorite charity mate, why are you taking money away?
00:44:26.940 Most people, when they do a charity, they give money to the charity.
00:44:30.620 They don't take money from the charity.
00:44:32.460 I really think that we're dealing with a crime family here on par with the Clinton crime family.
00:44:38.740 And I just don't know who's worse, the Trudeaus or the Kielbergers.
00:44:41.900 They really are mirror images of each other.
00:44:44.840 Last word to you, Kian.
00:44:46.520 Yeah, I'll just add something there to this.
00:44:49.080 The Kielberger brothers keep, throughout this whole testimony, they keep saying over and over again, oh, we weren't just paying them to come speak.
00:44:57.540 The speaking was an honor to speak to about 30,000 children.
00:45:00.460 That was an honor.
00:45:01.840 What we were paying them was to help us fundraise in smaller events after the fact.
00:45:06.960 Like, that somehow made it better.
00:45:08.820 Everyone has their hand in the cookie jar.
00:45:11.260 And not only were the Kielberger brothers using their relationship with Justin Trudeau to score big on this nearly billion-dollar contract,
00:45:18.660 they were using Justin Trudeau's family assets, his wealth, his power, and prominence to fundraise further for themselves after the fact.
00:45:27.900 It's just this big circle of collecting money from Canadians for their own benefit.
00:45:33.040 Yeah.
00:45:34.020 My last thought is not one of them is going to jail, are they?
00:45:39.120 Probably not.
00:45:40.200 Yeah.
00:45:41.320 Kiel, great to see you.
00:45:42.120 Keep up the good work, folks.
00:45:43.160 So may I encourage you to go to auditwee.com.
00:45:48.820 Stay with us.
00:45:49.880 More ahead.
00:45:50.260 Hey, welcome back.
00:46:02.900 On my monologue last night, Sherry writes,
00:46:05.340 The pandemic is absolutely over now.
00:46:06.960 America's frontline doctors have just released a video that blows the mainstream media and government's narrative right out of the water.
00:46:12.640 Masks are unnecessary.
00:46:14.980 Hey, I watched a bit of that video, and I was very interested in it.
00:46:17.940 And then suddenly, beep, beep, beep, it was deleted from Twitter, deleted from YouTube, deleted on Facebook.
00:46:24.120 Why was that deleted?
00:46:25.440 Who gets to decide which medical opinion is deleted or not?
00:46:29.080 That's insane to me.
00:46:31.200 So you've got some left-wing intern like, I don't know, Tyler Dawson,
00:46:35.880 sitting in some Facebook office somewhere saying,
00:46:38.220 I disagree with that medical opinion.
00:46:39.960 That's nuts.
00:46:41.760 On my interview with Joshua Phillip, Joni writes,
00:46:44.180 The West better move quickly to bring back manufacturing, especially medical ingredients,
00:46:48.760 considering over 80% of it comes from China.
00:46:51.820 You're exactly right.
00:46:52.740 You know what's interesting?
00:46:53.480 I was reading a story, and I mentioned this in my book, China Virus,
00:46:58.140 that the government of Japan is actually paying Japanese companies to reshore their factories back in Japan.
00:47:06.220 The government's just paying for it.
00:47:07.260 And you might say, oh, that's crazy.
00:47:08.720 That's a lot of money.
00:47:09.820 It is a lot of money.
00:47:12.120 But if you don't, you might have no pharmaceutical sector at all.
00:47:17.660 And compared to the massive costs inflicted on the world by this pandemic,
00:47:23.300 it's probably a savings.
00:47:25.080 And hey, bring the jobs back.
00:47:28.040 Devin writes,
00:47:29.200 Awesome, the two channels telling us the truth together for an interview.
00:47:32.600 Thanks to both of you for getting the truth out there to us.
00:47:35.920 Down with Trudeau and the CCP.
00:47:38.180 You know, I really like that Joshua Phillip of the Epoch Times.
00:47:41.140 I find him really even keeled, very calm, but very clear and tough too.
00:47:46.260 I like the Epoch Times, and these days, we need all the allies we can find.
00:47:51.400 Well, my friends, that's the show for today.
00:47:53.700 What do you think of the latest censorship coming from the National Post?
00:47:57.800 I used to work in the National Post, as you think, I think you might know.
00:48:00.300 I was here in the early days, from 99 to 2001, if I believe.
00:48:05.140 It was a great paper then.
00:48:06.500 Freedom was everything.
00:48:07.400 Now, they're just a bunch of whiny censors.
00:48:09.700 We've got to fight back.
00:48:11.360 All right.
00:48:12.360 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,
00:48:15.280 to you at home, good night, and keep fighting for freedom.
00:48:18.240 All right.
