In this episode of Rebel News Daily Live Stream, the Rebel News team discusses the removal of the word "rebel" from a school mascot and mascot, as well as all sorts of breaking news breaking out of Canada and around the world.
00:00:00.000Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen welcome to the Rebel News daily live
00:00:19.980stream my name is Dakota Christensen and I am joined here by the lovely Nat hello
00:00:25.120everybody and today we're gonna be talking about some pretty crazy stuff
00:00:29.280going on we have some breaking news coming out of Ottawa about the police
00:00:32.520essentially declaring war on the peaceful protesters and truckers there so a lot
00:00:37.140more to come on that and all sorts of news going on throughout the world right
00:00:42.120now it's a crazy world we're living in lots of stuff going on but we're here to
00:00:47.580share it all with you and give you our thoughts and commentary and just have a
00:00:51.540good time together talking about the insanity that is our world yep we're all
00:00:56.100in this together folks well we really I mean literally the politicians off in
00:01:02.340their own separate elitist world yeah but yeah we have some some crazy stuff but
00:01:07.260just to open it off today because essentially for those you don't know the
00:01:10.480program we have a bunch of headlines pulling together lots of news to talk
00:01:13.740about and we essentially we give you the news we help break it down for you you
00:01:17.900can interact with us through I believe rumble rants and hyper chats super chats
00:01:23.040whatever they call them on whichever platform you're watching unfortunately
00:01:26.280YouTube has demonetized us they really don't like us but if you go over to one
00:01:31.320of the alternative platforms rumble odyssey super you you can send us your
00:01:35.640chats we'll read them out have a great interaction and we can have that fun
00:01:40.740community building that way and we go through all the news of the day so let's
00:01:45.120do it we jump into it first headline of the day because we have so much to talk
00:01:48.360about yeah crazy stuff going on it's a crazy world crazy well first thing this
00:01:52.200just kind of caught our attention because we are rebel news here all right we're
00:01:55.860you know we're not about conforming to things we march to the beat of our own
00:01:59.820drum we like to think of ourselves as free thinkers and challengers of
00:02:03.360narratives and well this headline caught my eye this morning apparently a school in
00:02:09.540Windsor has removed the word rebel because they were called the Riverside rebels I
00:02:14.640think because they didn't want their children being little nonconformists
00:02:20.280but don't you also think this just kind of speaks to the fact that people are
00:02:23.280way too sensitive oh yeah like way too sensitive like is the word rebel really
00:02:27.880triggering or something like I don't understand like if you read what they
00:02:31.760actually said like can we even just scroll right back up to the very top there to
00:02:35.340the headline and sub headline if we look at that there just removal of rebel name
00:02:39.720from Riverside secondary school draws mixed reactions okay no longer um will
00:02:44.460they have any reference toward rebel and its sports team mascot or official
00:02:47.400school imagery okay maybe that's not the line I was thinking of maybe down a
00:02:49.740little bit my bad but I was thinking of the reasoning they said you know they
00:02:52.680didn't want to have anything possibly offensive or yeah they want to create
00:02:57.300safe caring and inclusive learning and working environments for all students and
00:03:01.500staff I don't understand how being a rebel is arguably by removing the word rebel
00:03:06.780from any sort of school um like emblems or anything is not inclusive because yeah what
00:03:12.200if you consider yourself a rebel yeah exactly it's like they oh we don't want to
00:03:16.320encourage our kids to be rule breakers and I mean sure that's fair but also it
00:03:21.180just seems a little much yeah you should be encouraging your kids to be free
00:03:24.760thinkers like diversity of thought is an important thing critical thinking these
00:03:28.100are things we want to instill in our kids and I think I think that they've just
00:03:31.340taken this word way too seriously exactly and I mean if we if we just pull the
00:03:35.100article back up for a second there if you look at the actual logo it's fair
00:03:38.700there is like some Confederate flag imagery there and I can understand if
00:03:41.720they don't like that they want to you know remove that sure how about just a
00:03:44.720redesign like yeah I think the Riverside Rebels is a fantastic name for a school
00:03:48.840and if you want some school spirit yeah we're the rebels out here fighting
00:03:51.560together like think Star Wars guys the rebels are the good guys the Empire
00:03:55.420they're evil you know rebel news we're the good guys rebel can be great but
00:04:00.020anyways yeah that's that's just a thing there it's just another thing in the our
00:04:04.040absolute cancel culture offensive world not even the slightest thing that goes
00:04:08.860against the nice cushy world we're building homeschool your kids no I'm
00:04:12.800just homeschool your kids out there private schools are nice if you got tons
00:04:16.280of cash otherwise you know honestly like for me when it's Lee I want to start a
00:04:21.000family and have kids I'm thinking escaped of Texas or Florida nice private
00:04:25.860school or home my kids I don't know or maybe maybe we can be successful in
00:04:30.540redeeming our nation up here I don't know you know what some optimism yeah
00:04:33.680God willing God willing really oh and you know on that I'll let you take the
00:04:38.540lead on this next story here oh man you guys this one is this one's a little
00:04:42.540cringe okay so we all know Vice Vice is pretty outrageous as a news source to
00:04:47.800begin with very progressive very left-wing but they've taken things to a
00:04:51.300whole new level here so apparently Vice is telling people to wear pantyhose on
00:04:55.620their faces to enhance their masking efficiency okay so we could just start
00:05:02.520off right out the gate here saying that we already know the data has told us
00:05:05.400that masks are more or less ineffective at preventing the spread of COVID I said
00:05:10.140let me stop you there now we are still on YouTube so guys we love masks I love
00:05:15.180masks are safe and effective yes YouTube overlords we wear masks all the time
00:05:20.580because we know they are our greatest tool other than the vaccines and stopping the
00:05:24.560spread of COVID-19 and having it kill us all you're right my mistake I had a
00:05:29.000mental lapse there I'm wearing a mask right now I love them yeah and for those
00:05:33.020of you who don't know we normally start the stream on YouTube yeah and we talk
00:05:36.680about things that YouTube will allow us to talk about without just cutting our
00:05:40.100stream off or deep but we've already been demonetized the platform in our
00:05:42.920channel and eventually to really give our honest open thoughts truly on topics we
00:05:48.060have to shut off our YouTube stream and we stream exclusively on rumble
00:05:51.180odyssey and super you so if you haven't already feel free oh and getter now getter
00:05:56.740as well yeah we're officially streaming on getter shout out to anyone who's on
00:05:59.920getter now that is a new addition to our streams my apologies for forgetting
00:06:03.320about that feel free to hop over onto any of our alternative platforms other than
00:06:07.980YouTube if you want to watch this full stream in its entirety still completely
00:06:11.740free it just you know YouTube doesn't like us talking freely but as you were
00:06:15.300saying that before I jumped in there so data aside yes data aside like
00:06:20.120we're gonna we're in trouble here but um pantyhose like come on okay I think
00:06:28.920data aside masks are kind of silly looking when you wear them okay let's throw on a
00:06:34.920sheer piece of women's clothing on top of that like come on look at these photos I
00:06:41.140I honestly don't like this I see this headline and I think this has to be the
00:06:45.640Babylon Bee or something like this has to be some sort of satire but no I mean
00:06:53.080this is I suppose this is maybe I haven't actually read the article myself but I
00:06:57.260maybe vice is being kind of playful here but it just it seems so comical to me
00:07:02.180that anyone could take themselves even remotely seriously reporting like someone
00:07:06.100took the time to write this like and I'm assuming they were being serious when
00:07:10.100they wrote this like I mean I don't want to don't you know you shouldn't assume
00:07:13.880anything I guess but still like it's it's we live in a clown world yeah yeah
00:07:18.440the fact that that is a genuine news headline and not outright satire you know
00:07:23.660it is like Babylon Bee that's a good one it is very true but uh yeah so those are
00:07:28.640some you know a little more light-hearted stuff but as I mentioned earlier there
00:07:32.000is some pretty intense stuff going on in the nation's capital right now in
00:07:36.180Ottawa um with of course if you've been following us at all you know you know
00:07:41.520make sure to check out convoyreports.com where we put all of our coverage of the
00:07:46.320truckers for freedom convoy that has been going on the massive protests going on in
00:07:51.560Ottawa there's that blockade at the Alberta Montana border that's been going on
00:07:55.740for many days now um truckers and supporters standing up all over the country
00:08:00.280protesting against COVID restrictions and vaccine mandates and all of the like
00:08:04.240but Trudeau it would seem is kind of shaking in his boots and uh some liberal
00:08:10.240party insiders have uh spoken to elect conservatives it is a pro-conservative
00:08:16.860platform and essentially said uh from these party insiders that Trudeau is
00:08:21.860quote panicked worried and bruised it seems that he's backed into a corner here and
00:08:26.460he's ready to lash out I mean I feel like it's pretty obvious I mean he did
00:08:30.840literally hide yeah like literally he was in hiding for a majority of the convoy so
00:08:38.180I mean this is completely unsurprising to me yeah I don't find it surprising but
00:08:41.940it's interesting to hear this from the horse's mouth of these liberal party
00:08:45.700insiders because you know recap of events here like you were saying the
00:08:49.320truckers were coming to town we're gonna flood Ottawa Trudeau says oh man guys I've
00:08:54.100had an exposure to someone who tested positive for COVID I tested negative but uh I
00:08:58.940just left Isley for five days and then he tested positive yeah runs away hides and
00:09:02.840then says he tested positive but then the next day or even that same day after
00:09:06.200saying he tested positive comes out with a press conference surrounded by
00:09:09.460reporters to condemn the truckers and call them racist xenophobes and terrorists of
00:09:14.120course um which is fascinating oh completely but so at this point I mean it
00:09:19.040just seems like there's nothing he can do because there are all these big rigs
00:09:22.160across the city all these massive trucks all over um and you have all these
00:09:25.980there are hundreds of thousands of protesters in the city over the weekend
00:09:29.940and there are still numbers there now and more returning this weekend um and it
00:09:33.900seems he's kind of been backed into a corner because they have been so peaceful
00:09:36.740and so polite I mean like I was there on the ground reporting on this it was like
00:09:40.800it was pretty amazing being there was a very true Canadian protest everyone was
00:09:44.040picking up after the garbage and being polite and handing out free food and like
00:09:47.900it was it was so immensely peaceful that if there was any sort of crackdown on
00:09:51.720this it would be such a bad image yeah oh absolutely I feel like conservatives
00:09:55.680when they're protesting always have to be on their best behavior right because the
00:09:59.340the media is going to try to demonize them and they'll they'll grasp at any
00:10:03.120opportunity to make them look bad you know to push their narrative right and I
00:10:07.380mean you compare that to the Black Lives Matter protests you look at Chaz slash
00:10:11.100chop in Seattle the autonomous zone that was set up where they literally
00:10:14.540peaceful mostly peaceful you know the fiery yet mostly peaceful protests in the
00:10:18.640summer of 2020 uh and there were absolute apologists all up and down the
00:10:22.600media and the uh the mainstream leftist you know quote-unquote liberal
00:10:28.180politicians uh sort of defending all of that and yet here we have this group of
00:10:33.460working-class people who are coming to Ottawa to make themselves be heard and to
00:10:38.520basically demand that they have their constitutional rights and freedoms be
00:10:42.600defended well that's just yeah they uh and who have been outrageously peaceful
00:10:47.600yeah who have not done anything wrong and then have just had a handful of agents
00:10:52.160provocateurs out there like one or two people with Confederate Nazi flag yeah make
00:10:56.960everyone look bad uh and suddenly they're all a bunch of racists and
00:11:00.160xenophobes but it seems that one week after all of the you know the cameras and the
00:11:05.080focus have been on there you know Daddy Trudeau has had enough and it feels like a
00:11:09.260little true daddy it seems like he's ready to crack down um you know he's panicked and
00:11:14.440worried and we've seen announcements from the Ottawa police and the RCMP
00:11:19.480stating that they're ready to deploy additional resources to crack down on the
00:11:22.900protesters and there's this string of tweets from the Ottawa police yes that is
00:11:27.220actually shocking to read through like I said these are completely peaceful
00:11:30.280protesters and you read through this string of tweets from the Ottawa police
00:11:33.280saying they're deploying all these additional officers they're gonna start
00:11:35.980enforcing everything they can that they're taking down names and writing down
00:11:39.440license plates of everyone who's in the city so they can enforce and it seems like
00:11:43.000they're gonna you know be trying to even instigate stuff like this is my
00:11:46.480personal speculation and there could be some heavy-handed responses and arrests
00:11:50.680like it's my feeling that Trudeau was just so desperate here and he's finally
00:11:53.740decided it's time to crack the whip no absolutely and I think it's kind of a
00:11:57.400good sign that we are seeing the the police come out and kind of have these
00:12:00.700sort of threatening messages because it does prove that they are scared like when
00:12:04.840people come together and are united for a cause such as this I think that
00:12:08.520really scares these globalist elites you know and I think this is I think this is a
00:12:12.460good thing I I don't know yeah and I mean like when I was there on the ground
00:12:15.940all the police over the past week have been extremely professional and
00:12:19.120respectful they gave a lot of room and space of the protesters all the ones I
00:12:23.260talked to just said you know what like they were out in droves there are so many
00:12:26.320police on the ground around the area of Ottawa where the truckers are parked
00:12:29.740around Parliament and they were very respectful and they just said we're just
00:12:33.640here to keep the peace and make sure everyone's safe and you know warm and to
00:12:37.240help people if they need it and you know what we're just we're just here there was a good
00:12:41.380bit of sort of political showmanship like there were cops standing just standing
00:12:44.620there in formation with riot gear just kind of eerie but a theater yeah a bit of
00:12:48.980theater political theater for sure but the cops themselves were like they were
00:12:51.760standing in formation there's a guy sitting next to them taking selfies and
00:12:54.760people chatting with them like the cops are just like yeah we've been ordered to
00:12:57.400stand here we're just kind of hanging out like you know how's it going guys but
00:13:00.880it seems like they're cracking down and adding more officers and it just seems
00:13:04.660like they're teasing you know more stuff that could be going down this
00:13:08.860weekend in Ottawa and it's it's kind of shocking the things they're doing so feel
00:13:12.460free to if you want to go hit up Twitter and look at the Ottawa police thread we've
00:13:15.880been tweeting all over that especially though you know like a week later like
00:13:19.840this this protest has been going on for a week which means that there's that's
00:13:23.680ample time for something to have gone awry these people have maintained peace
00:13:27.280they're they're not threatening anyone I know the horn honking is probably very
00:13:31.360annoying for people in the neighborhood but you know what else is annoying
00:13:33.460having your freedoms taken away for two years so it's very true yeah people like and
00:13:38.200technically yes like there are many things that would like technically be big be
00:13:41.800breaking the law here in terms of I imagine they don't have a lot of the
00:13:45.040proper permits they need for protesting they are blocking city streets right they
00:13:48.940all would be having noise violations with all these bylaws and stuff but the
00:13:53.200intention here is like this is an active protest this is an in and of itself a
00:13:57.880rebellion and they've been breaking these smaller laws they have overall been
00:14:01.720very compliant with the police yeah they've been working together they've been
00:14:05.800very compliant we've seen that a lot in Alberta too on the border they the when
00:14:10.220they were negotiating with the RCMP the the truckers were very amicable yeah like
00:14:13.960these are people who are at their wits ends they feel like they've been backed
00:14:17.320into a corner and they have no other choice and they're willing to put it all on
00:14:20.540the line right now and you know we're in other situations this would be a
00:14:25.480violent revolution but it's not it's very polite very Canadian very Canadian and
00:14:29.860this headline which I think is really important to talk about while we're
00:14:33.680talking about all of this it came from black locks reporter in Ottawa showing the
00:14:39.140crime data just the preliminary police data the statistics here of crime this
00:14:44.820past week in the area of Ottawa where all the truckers and protesters are compared to
00:14:49.060the week before there has been a significant drop in crime in Ottawa since the
00:14:55.640protesters and the truckers have arrived you know it's so funny we're always told
00:14:58.640to look at the data and yet these people who are like preaching this that us
00:15:02.480can't practice what they preach look at the data y'all yeah if you read through
00:15:06.140there I read through it quickly I'm trying to remember exactly what it said
00:15:09.320there but I think it said something there were like 30 something incidents of
00:15:12.800violent crime where the police were called yeah 31 police calls for robbery
00:15:17.660assault drug trafficking public drunkenness stolen vehicles store breaking and
00:15:22.040other crimes in the week prior to the protest and there were three reports of a
00:15:26.740street crime since the protest began for mischief robbery and auto theft so one
00:15:30.900came from 31 to three though the week before they came was 31 the week while they were there was
00:15:35.740three in that region that's a shocking drop in crime it seems all these truckers and
00:15:39.600protesters coming to town has been a major deterrent for criminals actually so thank
00:15:44.800a trucker yeah so get out there and thank a trucker honk your horns but it's it's just
00:15:49.660astounding to see that the police and the politicians are trying to frame this
00:15:53.740group of protesters in Ottawa as violent dangerous extremists and we need to bring the police there we've seen
00:15:59.660all this aggression from them I've seen nothing of the sort I mean look at this clip here like
00:16:04.500yeah I mean they're celebrating and having a good time and they're just you know trying to make the most of this situation while they see what like what they believe they're doing is fighting
00:16:13.660yeah and I mean for their freedom they're dancing sucks but they aren't terrorists yeah
00:16:17.500yeah exactly you know like they're having fun they're having a hoot like just let these people
00:16:21.220this is this is all we have at this point you know everything's been taken away from so many
00:16:25.380of these people via vaccine mandates etc um so like let's just let the people dance
00:16:31.400yeah yeah exactly their dancing might be offensive to the eyes yeah it's not quite an act of terror
00:16:36.260like but it's just like I've seen so much wholesome stuff this past weekend when I was on the ground there
00:16:41.640of people looking out for each other helping each other refreshing so many of these people are just good
00:16:46.380honest working class rural farmer type you know homey folksy people who are just like they're such
00:16:53.120good people with good spirits and good uh you know kind of manners to them who really actually care and
00:16:59.280everyone has just been so polite and kind and people coming from all different backgrounds like
00:17:02.940they're trying to paint this as white supremacists I know like there were so many people of so all
00:17:07.060different races and backgrounds religions and ethnicities coming together over this
00:17:10.580so agree or disagree if you like but all the labels of white supremacy and terrorism and
00:17:15.260all the same yeah all the aggression it is like focusing on on the narrowest 0.00001 percent of
00:17:21.660some people in Ottawa if that like that what's shocking is you look at this group of people
00:17:26.020and like just be you know you look like we're talking about crime in Ottawa yeah if you look at
00:17:30.840any city of course there are going to be criminals and people there you don't say everyone in Ottawa is
00:17:35.280a terrorist because this criminal did this yeah a couple of people in the area of the protest did
00:17:40.260some things that are unacceptable but that's like a couple of people out of hundreds upon hundreds
00:17:44.360of thousands of people in that area not to mention not even necessarily associated with the protest
00:17:48.800absolutely and not to mention anyone who is participating in these protests I would I'm almost
00:17:54.780certain would very likely condemn any actual violent or criminal act oh absolutely you know from
00:18:00.580from someone else who's allegedly involved in the protest I I just don't see them encouraging that
00:18:05.340kind of behavior because like we were saying earlier the media and the government want them
00:18:08.860to mess up yeah yeah and everyone I talked to was so much on that they're saying well this is a
00:18:12.880peaceful protest we are here there will be no violence no funny business no funny business guys
00:18:18.260they were more than aware of all the eyes on them and of every possible attempt that would be made to
00:18:24.340try and paint them as bad actors even though they're nothing of the sort and they just stress so much no
00:18:29.520matter what happens so like hopefully we see if the police do move in this weekend as it looks like
00:18:33.900they're going to I mean hopefully we will see classic civil libertarian Martin Luther King-esque type
00:18:40.740civil disobedience in which they will just sit there and if the police will arrest them they'll
00:18:45.280arrest them if they're going to haul them off to jail let it happen I really hope that they have
00:18:49.280such willpower and restraint that there won't be any backlash because the way I could see this going
00:18:54.180down is police move in they start ticketing people and there could be some provocation there and then
00:18:58.940if a fight or two breaks out it feels like this is all over no that's a good point I think
00:19:03.740people need to really be on their best behavior you know don't let them don't let the narrative
00:19:08.260win you guys if you're going out to Ottawa today or if you're attending a protest please practice
00:19:12.120peaceful protesting yeah actually on that note I would love to bring this up this wasn't on our agenda
00:19:16.940here but if our you know absolute crack producer can pull this up yeah shout out to AD yeah the
00:19:22.840Democracy Fund yesterday released some really great stuff on the do's and don'ts of peaceful
00:19:28.100protesting the Democracy Fund are our charitable partners who we have been working with with our
00:19:32.580fight vaccine passports and fight the fines projects among others they're a registered
00:19:36.860Canadian charity and they put out some really great content yesterday on basically knowing your
00:19:43.080rights around peaceful protesting and how you should deal with the police if the police do come
00:19:47.460after you and we've they've also said they're going to be announcing free legal consultation for
00:19:52.620those who are protesting in Ottawa just helping people to know their rights when it comes to this
00:19:57.240yeah I believe you can find this on Instagram as well the Democracy Fund I mean this is their
00:20:01.840website which is the democracyfund.ca so definitely head over there and give this a read because I
00:20:05.720think it's really important for people to be aware yeah it absolutely is yeah the democracyfund.ca
00:20:10.380because a lot of people go out there and they don't know their rights when it comes to dealing
00:20:14.520with the police dealing with lawyers the best way to do things like for example we've we've been sent
00:20:18.260so many videos of oh look at this shocking thing this officer did to us because this person
00:20:22.440wasn't wearing a mask or this person was here and but they also did things that made it worse
00:20:27.600like they refused to give their name to an officer when the officer asked like you're required to give
00:20:32.180your name and identify yourself to an officer and if you give a fake name or you refuse to answer and
00:20:37.440not identify yourself you know you can be charged with something else on top of that and that can be
00:20:41.700the thing they nail you for even if the initial thing they came after you for wasn't actually something
00:20:47.260you could get prosecuted uh don't provoke anything don't provoke you know make sure to check out that
00:20:52.640guide yes if you are going to be in ottawa this weekend or protesting anywhere because we're seeing
00:20:57.920these protests across the country really across the country there's stuff going on in alberta
00:21:02.420and every major city in toronto there's one plan for this weekend where people are freaking out
00:21:07.540about it um there's there's all sorts of stuff happening everywhere but there are some cracks
00:21:12.440starting to form you know like there are trudeau kind of hiding and and you know worrying and seems
00:21:18.280like he's uh lashing out now and because this police stuff seems very politically motivated and
00:21:23.640seems like it's on marching orders it seems like very it seems like a bit of theater to me yeah
00:21:28.460absolutely um and the in alberta with that blockade of truckers at the border between alberta and
00:21:35.520montana it seems like jason kenney's starting to crack and it seems like he has a revolt on his hand
00:21:40.780politically with the united conservative party in alberta um yeah seems like some mlas the members
00:21:47.600of the legislative assembly rural mlas yeah the rural mlas the uh the politicians in alberta they
00:21:52.460seem to support the truckers on this and they seem to be really pressuring kenny to back down and it's
00:21:57.560been very interesting over the past few days see kenny go from all right guys uh completely unrelated to
00:22:03.280the truckers we are exploring maybe an end to this vaccine passport program such a politician's
00:22:09.420exemptions yeah program as they call it going to okay probably by the end of this month to
00:22:14.220okay by the end of this week and we do have a video of this year to the end of this millennia
00:22:19.660yeah so so at the so but it was slowly going down with like you know towards the better thing of oh
00:22:24.640end of this month okay maybe end of this week okay so this video came out last night that we shared
00:22:30.140this if we can throw to that of jason kenney making the announcement saying he'll be ending
00:22:33.960restrictions check this out but if you mean what is the end of the restrictions
00:22:37.400as i've just outlined early next week we will be uh publishing and presenting a uh safe plan
00:22:44.940uh to lift public health measures in alberta to do so safely uh to do so gradually starting with the
00:22:53.000elimination of the restriction exemption program i would also like to see vaccine measures affecting
00:22:57.540children lifted as soon as possible because i think there's a basic unfairness injustice
00:23:04.940in many of these measures having had a disproportionate impact on kids
