00:00:00.000
Hey, good afternoon. Good morning, everybody. Adam, how's it going? I'm your host of the
00:00:20.440
live stream today, or at least your co-host. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed. This is the Rebel News
00:00:24.140
daily live stream, and that is my friend in Calgary, Adam Sos. Adam, once again, how's
00:00:28.480
it going? Oh, it's going great. No complaints whatsoever. How about yourself? I'm doing
00:00:33.820
great. I had not seen the new COVID warning on the front of the live stream before, and
00:00:39.160
it's eerie and creepy and perfect. The other one was obnoxious because we were fighting
00:00:45.180
back against the obnoxiousness of YouTube making us put these warnings on stuff, but that other
00:00:49.760
one is eerie and weird. I like it. I really like it. I like it, too, and it's a little
00:00:55.100
less jarring. The other thing was kind of an alarm clock that I'm about to get to talk
00:00:59.700
with everybody on the live stream, but this is a little more chill. I appreciate that.
00:01:04.940
Are those new glasses, Sheila? No, I have a desk full of glasses that I never wear, and
00:01:11.160
so I always just grab the first one that's on the top of the pile before I start, but
00:01:15.200
then I was like, you know what? I have all these other glasses that I'm not sure if I
00:01:18.720
like them or not, so I'll wear them and I'll figure it out. They look great. Thank you for
00:01:22.480
noticing. Oh, thanks. There's so much to talk about. Normally, everybody at home, we
00:01:28.680
do prepare for these streams, and we do have a little meeting before we go live, but there
00:01:34.020
is just so much to talk about, and I try to get to everything that is in the YouTube
00:01:41.000
headline, because if we don't, then I get emails, and I really want to talk about how
00:01:47.240
Trudeau keeps being weird. So before we get to that, I should tell everybody what we're
00:01:51.620
doing without going into too much detail, because we get emails about that too. So
00:01:55.720
this is the Rebel News Daily Livestream. Adam and I are hosting today, but it gives you
00:02:01.480
an opportunity to support the work that we do completely willingly if you are avoiding
00:02:05.660
the censorship of YouTube, and I'll get to that in a second. So we stream on YouTube,
00:02:09.520
but as I sort of alluded to when I remarked about our COVID warning, there are certain things
00:02:14.280
on YouTube that we can't talk about. So if we get into, like, the red zone, we might
00:02:19.820
have to cut the YouTube feed, but the good news is we're also streaming on other platforms.
00:02:23.880
We're on Getter, but we're also on Rumble, Odyssey, and SuperU. And the beauty of Rumble,
00:02:28.720
Odyssey, and SuperU, besides not caring about our politics, is that they give you the opportunity
00:02:33.400
to support the work that we do. Unlike with the CBC, where Justin Trudeau makes you support
00:02:38.740
them against your will and makes you pay for content, you would never willingly watch.
00:02:44.100
I think you're watching us out of your own free will, and if you feel so inclined to help
00:02:47.580
us keep the lights on, you can do something called a Rumble Rant. That's their paid chat.
00:02:51.920
If you send us one of those, we'll read it on air. An Odyssey hyper chat. There's a couple
00:02:57.160
different ways that you can do that, including using cryptocurrency. And again, that's your
00:03:02.140
paid chat. We'll read it on air. And a SuperU shout. So if you send us one of those, it helps
00:03:08.080
support the work that we do, but it also democratizes the show because it puts you in charge
00:03:12.440
for a minute. And it, you know, it gives us a break from talking about the things that
00:03:17.780
we've decided to talk about. And you can sort of take the show in your own direction. So
00:03:21.320
if you want to do that, that's great. Our producers will send them to us and we'll read
00:03:25.460
them on air. And I think that's all the nuts and bolts out of the way. Let's talk about
00:03:30.880
Justin Trudeau. Adam, you're married. I'm married. I think our respective spouses, yours
00:03:37.120
is lovely, but mine has his own idiosyncrasies, but not quite like the Trudeaus. They're a
00:03:46.540
It's just so weird. Like you literally read this message and my immediate response is like,
00:03:52.320
nice. You know, like, I mean, I'm not, I just, I don't hate anyone on a malicious level.
00:03:58.560
So I'm like, Oh, you're sending a nice message. Like there's been some rumors, things are on
00:04:03.120
the rocks, a nice message. But then like the image is just these like swings with masks on in a
00:04:11.240
dungeon. It's absolutely haunting. I, as soon as I saw this and I was like, maybe I shouldn't, but
00:04:16.440
I put it on and I put it on my Twitter. I added like the black mirror logo to the bottom of this
00:04:23.440
image. Cause it just looks like some sort of dystopic, like your children may not be able to
00:04:28.180
go to the park with others, but they can go to the basement swings. Like it's so bizarre and weird.
00:04:33.800
I imagine this is probably one of, there you go. Yeah. The black mirror episode,
00:04:38.540
it looks like one. I imagine this might be one of those like selfie type places where you go and do
00:04:45.200
this, but it just like, why do they always have a photographer? Like my wife and I don't have a
00:04:51.640
photographer following us around. Why not have like a nice, wholesome family picture or something
00:04:56.980
sensible. This is like framed like a Wes Anderson film. It's the most inorganic, like, like laid out
00:05:05.000
weird thing. I don't know. Yeah. I just look at this and it's just a real feast for the eyes and I
00:05:13.020
can't process it all at once. Like, I don't know if this is a sex dungeon or what I I'm too far into
00:05:22.000
serial killers for my own good. So that's like immediately where my head went. Is this a dungeon?
00:05:28.380
What is this? Why are they married? Are they holding hands there? I can't remember because I was too
00:05:34.860
distracted by everything else. Like the paint on the walls. They're holding hands. Yeah. Let's check.
00:05:41.020
Okay. They are. Yeah. They're holding hands, but they're wearing masks. Yeah. Married to each other.
00:05:48.120
So they would have us believe they live in the same house, although I'm willing to hear arguments for
00:05:52.380
and against that inference. They're both, I think, immune. So they're both like double or triple
00:06:01.240
vaccinated, but they're both also immune. Like they have natural immunity because you think they both
00:06:07.720
got COVID. And why is she wearing high heels on a swing set? There's just so much here. I can't,
00:06:15.560
I don't understand it. Yeah. I, it's so weird. And I mean, again,
00:06:20.280
the only way that this makes sense is, and I'm trying to give this, this is me giving Justin
00:06:26.400
Trudeau as much credit as I can. They were on a date at like a museum or a selfie place that has a
00:06:32.360
mask policy. Um, and that kind, and therefore heels make sense. And, but then like, you don't pick
00:06:40.340
this picture as your intimate anniversary or whatever picture, like, you're like, I definitely
00:06:44.920
want the one where her face is entirely covered and you can't tell who it is really. Yeah. Yeah.
00:06:51.040
Yeah. Let's remember this forever, honey. Like, it's just, I don't know. I just like, get your kids,
00:06:56.820
stand in front of a tree, take a picture, be normal. Why can't these people just be normal?
00:07:03.340
I don't understand. Yeah. None of their pictures. It's like, you look at Catherine McKinney,
00:07:07.900
you look at any of these other people, none of them posts like normal pictures that people post
00:07:12.000
like, Hey, can you take this picture or like a selfie or those types of things? Like none of them
00:07:16.900
do this. It's always like this lit produced ridiculous fanfare with no sort of organic homey
00:07:23.920
feel to it. I think the same person would have posted a picture of the family. Yeah. Picture the
00:07:29.960
family or an intimate moment or like wedding day photo. Nope. Yeah. Black mirror swings.
00:07:38.360
And then I can't, I can't wait for the conspiracies though. Cause someone is going to say it's
00:07:42.620
Photoshop. I can't wait for someone to do analysis that they weren't actually in the same room and
00:07:47.120
the hands don't. I wouldn't be surprised. That would not be any weirder than this photo.
00:07:54.280
It's no, it wouldn't be any weirder. It would be just about right. Uh, we should talk about Elon Musk.
00:07:59.360
Yeah. Uh, sounds like the Twitter, uh, board is reconsidering his offer. I think it's 56 bucks a
00:08:07.280
share or something like that. Uh, they are now reconsidering his hostile takeover. Um, which is
00:08:14.180
great. And again, I reiterate my position. I don't care if Twitter survives. Um, and I don't care if
00:08:20.400
Elon Musk makes it fun again, but it cannot continue the way it is. So if they want to resist him and he
00:08:26.160
destroys it, if he buys it and throws it in the garbage can, because he's a crazy billionaire,
00:08:30.820
also fine. I don't care, but boy, I'm sure if he invites Donald Trump back.
00:08:39.360
Yeah. It's going to be great. The, uh, the, it was interesting. The whole, like, I think it was
00:08:43.640
Goldman Sachs doing, they hired them to say that 54, 60 or 54, 20, whatever it was, uh, 420 is probably
00:08:51.000
in there somewhere if it's Elon Musk. Um, but if, if they, they, they hired them to say that these
00:08:56.980
shares weren't, it wasn't a valid price for the shares and there's growth and all this stuff.
00:09:01.140
And he just tweeted a very recent document where they said there were 30 bucks and that would be
00:09:05.960
a good bid. Um, this is very much has all the earmarks of the liberals on Keystone XL right now,
00:09:11.180
where the board is like, wait a minute, like there's not really a rational justification for this.
00:09:16.000
And I think more than the whole Twitter thing itself as a public square, I think what this has
00:09:25.080
done is revealed how ideological the control mechanisms are. Like, this isn't even about
00:09:30.320
Twitter. This is Elon Musk being like, here's twice what your company's worth. And they're like,
00:09:34.820
we don't care. It's the same thing. You look at some of these things. I saw someone tweeting about
00:09:38.200
this on the weekend, like Disney's lost something like $50 billion over their woke activism. And in like
00:09:43.960
a free market or capitalism, the top board members would be like, you're fired. Stop right now. But
00:09:49.040
it's not about money. It's not about activism. And like Elon Musk is one of the first people with
00:09:53.340
enough money to be able to show the world that that's happening as well. Thanks for pulling that
00:09:59.340
up so fast, but they've lost $50 billion in value. Since that began, people are canceling left,
00:10:05.920
right, and center, big drops in their stocks. Um, and similarly with Twitter, this whole thing has just
00:10:11.540
made so utterly apparent. And you can see with like Wall Street, uh, journal posts were there when
00:10:16.580
Bezos bought them, it was all like, this is great. And then when, uh, Musk goes to buy something,
00:10:20.460
because he's not a woke activist, they're like, this is the worst thing ever. And it's like,
00:10:24.080
oligarchs controlling the media. Um, it it's, it's revealed and under and flipped over this,
00:10:30.180
this rock. And we're seeing everything scurrying around underneath it, uh, in a, in a way we wouldn't
00:10:35.340
have seen if not for Elon Musk and his crazy money. Yeah. I mean, this is the perfect summation of
00:10:42.460
this. The company will neither thrive nor serve this social imperative in its current form.
00:10:51.300
Um, he said that Twitter's current leadership team is incapable of getting the company's stock
00:10:56.040
to his offer price on its own, but stopped short of saying it needs to be replaced. People can make
00:11:01.860
that inference on their own. Um, if you are a shareholder of Twitter and the Twitter board is
00:11:08.780
stonewalling your ability to have a share price that this billionaire is offering you over and above,
00:11:15.520
you should be saber rattling for their firing because that's their only job is to protect your
00:11:19.880
share value and grow the company. And we've seen it become their only job is to keep their job.
00:11:24.640
They don't do much. They get paid their $300,000 a year. So they don't want to see that evaporate.
00:11:29.120
But I think on a fundamental level, like Elon Musk is very sort of interesting. Cause I wouldn't say
00:11:34.260
he's necessarily on side on a lot of issues. He's kind of, he's the joker. He's like, he just wants
00:11:40.220
to watch all burn, but also wants to get to space. Um, so he's very, he's very interesting in that
00:11:44.400
regard, but I think he understands that, that the majority of Twitter is people having angry
00:11:51.220
arguments and that's where its value is. Um, and eradicating half of that conversation is bad for
00:11:56.440
business. So I actually think that this is beyond just a philosophical sentiment. Everyone who's
00:12:02.600
saying they're leaving Twitter are going to be on Twitter and arguing more, more people are joining
00:12:06.280
Twitter. People who've left Twitter are coming back to Twitter to engage in this whole thing.
00:12:10.520
Um, the liberals won't leave just like they didn't leave the United States when Donald Trump won the
00:12:14.320
election and they said they would, they'll be there rallying. They'll throw more funding into
00:12:18.760
activists being on Twitter and you'll just see it probably descent into more madness than there was
00:12:24.440
before. But that's what the public square is meant to be people arguing and, uh, without
00:12:28.600
threatening each other with violence, calling each other nasty names like that. That's what social
00:12:33.440
media generally is. Twitter has tried to eradicate that. They haven't tried to eradicate that to make
00:12:37.520
it a pleasant place. They've done it to have it be a unilateral mentality and suggest falsely to people
00:12:44.380
out there, uh, much like the CBC that they're, Oh, here's the mainstream narrative and no one disagrees
00:12:49.640
with it. Um, Elon Musk is like, no people disagree. So let's have them have a place where they can
00:12:54.020
throw mud and we can make money on it. It's interesting to see the freak out too, where
00:12:59.100
you just see all these people threatening to leave Twitter. If Musk takes it over
00:13:03.540
inconsequential people, but also important people too. And I just think you're threatening me with a
00:13:08.640
good time. Like all I do all day long is mute people screaming at me in my mentions. And that's
00:13:15.320
the point. Screw me all you want. I don't even block these people. I let them see what I'm saying
00:13:21.720
because I know I am so irritating to them that I take some gratification out of the fact that they
00:13:26.920
can see what I'm saying, but they also know that I don't care. And I don't think I should be punching
00:13:32.380
down at certain people either. Um, but the second that their little safe zone might be interrupted
00:13:40.960
by the ability for other people to have the same, I don't know, I don't want to say rights because it's not
00:13:48.420
rights on a platform, but the same access to a platform that you do, they have a conniption.
00:13:55.080
Well, and like, I think that there is actually a philosophical sort of conversation to be had.
00:14:01.200
Uh, there's a distinction between like, let's say a utility company and something that has become a
00:14:06.820
de facto, um, like public square. Uh, and like during the drilling, the early onset of sort of
00:14:13.940
aqueducts, it was a very sort of privatized, very elite rich few could have it. Now we're like,
00:14:18.580
oh, well, that's a utility. Everyone has access to. I think we're in that sort of threshold within
00:14:22.780
technology where some of these platforms start to be considered sort of utility based and the city
00:14:28.620
can't be like, oh, well, because of your political views, we're turning off your water now is,
00:14:32.580
is an opinion as valid as, or as vital as water to banking. You can't have access to banking because
00:14:38.520
of your political views. I think we're there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, um, but I, there is a
00:14:43.840
conversation I think to be had as to, to what extent that needs to be, uh, like permitted or an upheld
00:14:49.420
even within private companies. Cause they're the fact of the matter is, is there are laws that are
00:14:53.500
in place that hold private companies accountable. They can't do whatever they want. You can't be
00:14:57.300
overtly racist. You can't be shutting people's water off. Well, you, you couldn't, or they're banking off
00:15:02.220
because of political opinions, as long as they weren't, uh, malicious. Well, hey, that changed.
00:15:06.020
So we're on that slippery slope. So. Yeah. I, I think it's, uh, it takes us into the Florida
00:15:12.180
conversation. Um, you know, if you want to be treated as a utility or as your own governing city
00:15:22.200
state as Disney, uh, world has been, then if you want to those, the, the privileges that come
00:15:31.160
with the distinction, then you have to operate a certain way. And I think that's, that's where
00:15:35.480
we're at with a lot of these social media companies. If you are acting as a utility,
00:15:39.640
then you have to treat people as though you were a utility. You can't have it both ways.
00:15:44.500
Like with Disney world, all that happened to Disney world is thanks to governor Ron DeSantis
00:15:51.780
is that they are treated like everybody else, every other company operating within the state
00:15:57.420
of Florida and you have lefties screaming that, you know, the, the lefties who used to cry about,
00:16:03.060
um, you know, maybe big businesses should pay their fair share of taxes. Disney world's gonna,
00:16:09.300
so settle down. They're going to have to now, but they're having a conniption. It's very weird to see
00:16:14.740
lefties, uh, arguing for big pharma for big business to have tax breaks. It's weird, right?
00:16:21.440
That was the next point I was going to make. And you were, you, you segued into it perfectly
00:16:24.880
and we'll talk about DeSantis and we'll show that Florida clip shortly. But the thing that I found
00:16:29.380
absolutely amazing is the like critical leftists who are apprehensive about big pharma or were into
00:16:35.960
organic AKA farmers before hippies came along. Um, but all of these, all of these sort of the things
00:16:42.880
that were maybe semi appealing or interesting about progressives in the left, um, those people are all
00:16:50.940
attending the protests and they're conservatives now. And they're like, ah, the NDP and liberals
00:16:55.420
betrayed us. I guess we'll vote for this guy. And even some of the candidates, we'll talk a little
00:16:59.760
bit later about Joseph for go, but like some of them, some of their talking points, they're very
00:17:04.100
conservative, even socially conservative, fiscally conservative, but then they're like, they go off
00:17:08.220
about like preventative healthcare and organic foods. It's so interesting to see that segment of the
00:17:15.640
progressives leave. Uh, the progressive wing doesn't even seem to be, or the left wing, whatever
00:17:20.000
you want to call them. They don't even really particularly seem to have an identity beyond
00:17:24.320
outrage. Like they're just what, like whatever the government tells me, whatever Netflix and the
00:17:28.920
biggest corporations tell me, um, that plus like a sprinkle of outrage, that's our identity. There's,
00:17:34.420
it's hard to find a unifying factor among them because they're so fluid. Um, there's, there's no core
00:17:40.380
principles there really anymore. The people with principles on the left come to the right and they're
00:17:45.200
trying to have the right espouse some of their principles. Some of them aren't necessarily in
00:17:49.100
conflict either. Yeah. It's weird. It's the, I think the ethos of the left now is the, everything,
00:17:56.780
the government should control it and pay for it. And if you hurt my feelings, I want the government
00:18:05.020
to drop the hammer on you instead of just turning and walking away. Everything requires government
00:18:11.160
control and government funding. It's sickle and hammer. Yeah, exactly. It's the antithesis of
00:18:18.440
freedom, um, with regard to everything. They've ceded control over everything, even their thought and
00:18:24.620
speech to the government in exchange for the government paying for it all. Well, I know, I know
00:18:30.360
intelligent people who are sort of blocked into the left and even on some issues that we can't talk
00:18:38.220
about on YouTube, they're no longer in line with the, with the public officials on those issues.
00:18:44.120
They're staying back in the most extreme strength and position of that argument. I'm, I'm dodging
00:18:49.720
YouTube to the best of my ability here, but, but they're, they're like, like the mainstream has moved
00:18:55.440
away from that. And they're like, no, we're going to stay in this like ideological extreme because
00:18:59.140
they're so contrarian. Like if, if Ron DeSantis or Trump or you or I, or whoever it may be,
00:19:05.220
anyone with a conservative thought espouses a position, uh, JK Rowling, et cetera, they'll just
00:19:11.900
be opposed to it because it can be the most sensible position on earth, but their position
00:19:16.460
is just to be opposed to it. But yeah, I think on a fundamental level, um, all these people coming
00:19:21.160
from countries that they saw communism set in and they saw the sort of warning signs for that.
00:19:25.920
They're like, well, that's what's happening in society now. And then people are like, well, no,
00:19:29.240
no, no, you don't know what you're talking about. I'm like, actually we're pretty privileged.
00:19:31.860
They do know what they're talking about. The people who escaped that. Um, and it is a
00:19:35.540
mountain trend of go along with, and it doesn't even go along with me or respect me. It's go
00:19:40.100
along with the state and respect the state or be canceled. Yeah. You know, and I don't know,
00:19:46.060
maybe, uh, Efron or Olivia can bring it up. I know this is probably a kind of obscure reference,
00:19:51.060
but I, today in response to, I mean, it's just like governor DeSantis threw a rock into a pond
00:19:59.140
and everything is just rippling out from there and exposing people along the way.
00:20:04.840
So I guess maybe we should give some context for people who have just listened to us,
00:20:08.920
have a conversation, but really don't know what we're talking about. So governor DeSantis passed
00:20:12.600
a law. Um, the left calls it the don't say gay law, even though it does, it's not in there at all.
00:20:18.220
It's like a seven page bill, read it. You won't find it in there. Um, but you know, reading a seven
00:20:22.960
page bill feels like a lot of hard work that liberals aren't willing to do. So anyways,
00:20:27.400
he passes a law that says, look, you can't talk to, uh, you know, up to age eight, you can't talk
00:20:35.040
to them about sex and gender. Let them be little kids for a long time. And their parents don't want
00:20:38.720
you to do this. So they don't care that parents don't want you talking to their kids about what
00:20:45.260
you did with your same sex partner over the weekend. They don't want it. Teach them how to
00:20:49.520
teach them cursive. You know, if you're so, if you've got that much time on your hands,
00:20:55.120
teach them how to sign your name because kids don't know how to do that anymore. But anyways,
00:20:59.780
it causes outrage. The left puts pressure on Disney who, you know, have a 40 by 40 mile,
00:21:06.960
uh, self-governing zone within the state of Florida. Uh, so Disney comes out against the
00:21:13.260
don't say gay law, which is a pro grooming law. Look, if you want to talk to little kids about sex
00:21:18.060
and gender against your parents' wishes, 10 years ago, you'd be thrown in jail. Now they want it
00:21:22.680
codified into law. So Disney comes out and says that they're against, I don't know, DeSantis keep
00:21:31.420
prohibiting people from grooming kids. And so he says, that's fine. Okay. I guess since you're going
00:21:38.060
to spread disinformation about us, um, you get, you lose your privileges. You get to be like
00:21:42.660
everybody else because, uh, there's something a little bit creepy by the way, about a pro family,
00:21:47.720
pro kid, uh, business, big, enormous business with so much of what they do focused at kids
00:21:55.720
being on the side of the groomers here. So good for Ron DeSantis treats them like everybody else.
00:22:02.300
The left rallies on the side of big business. And now, um, people are going through and quitting
00:22:08.760
their jobs from companies that may have donated to DeSantis. So I saw on Twitter, some activist kid
00:22:16.180
or whatever, I guess in his real life, he begs groceries at Publix. Um, and, but he's like a
00:22:23.780
left-wing activist kid, but he, I guess he doesn't get all the big money that a lot of left-wing
00:22:28.780
activists get and he's still got to have a job. And he's like, I quit my job at Publix after five years,
00:22:34.900
still begging groceries after five years. Okay. You know what? I'm happy. He's got an honest day's
00:22:39.000
work, whatever. But he quit his job because Publix donated to DeSantis. You know, like what is the
00:22:46.900
point here? Well, you, now you're unemployed and you're probably going to apply to the state
00:22:52.960
that you don't like the government of the state for, uh, welfare. Congratulations. Paid for by the
00:23:00.100
way, by big business. Yeah. It's literally, it's just manufactured outrage. Like this thing is
00:23:05.380
absolutely ridiculous. And like you said, not long ago, that would have been unilateral, but
00:23:09.740
now, now apparently people are okay with grooming. We've seen this and we're going to talk about
00:23:15.340
another story very shortly here about consent, but the, the type of content that is being pushed
00:23:20.940
on kids. There's been all these videos on social media of people being like, well, I can't tell my
00:23:25.000
elementary school students about my relationship with my same sex partner. Don't I never, when I went
00:23:31.840
to school with my straight teachers or gay teachers or whatever the heck they may have been,
00:23:35.760
they weren't like, so this weekend, my husband brought home a nice chardonnay.
00:23:40.300
Do you know how I knew that my teachers were married and had kids? If the kids got out of the car with
00:23:45.720
them at school, like kids went to the same school or I saw them at church and I was like, oh, there's
00:23:50.920
Mr. Kalal and his family or there he's sitting with his family and he goes up to do the reading at
00:23:55.560
church. That's how I put together who was who in the family. I didn't want to hear about it. And
00:24:00.420
I liked it that way. Well, and I know someone on, some of the other day on Twitter to give full
00:24:05.260
credit. I wish I remembered who it was, but they were saying like, if you had these conversations
00:24:08.960
in the workplace, it'd be considered sexual harassment, but these people want to have it
00:24:12.820
with kids in schools. And this is an, a condemn date condemnation. That was a little
00:24:17.680
medalist Jamie Soleil who said that. There you go. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. So, and I knew it was
00:24:24.400
someone of note, but it's absolutely just shocking to see that this is what people are outraged
00:24:30.860
about. Like this, this should just be one of those sensible, like, well, yeah, that's not really the
00:24:36.800
age for that. But I mean, you, you look at these progressives, like you look at the sex ed curriculum
00:24:41.060
that was that they attempted to pass under the McGinty government. I believe that I convicted pedophile
00:24:47.220
Benjamin Levin wrote and contributed to that sex ed curriculum. Uh, it then under Catholic and
00:24:53.860
when, I think it was, it actually came into effect. And then after that, Alberta borrowed from that sex
00:24:59.340
ed curriculum. So you literally have pedophiles writing sex ed curriculums, people who coach people
00:25:04.260
on how to abuse their own children, writing sex ed curriculums. And no one has a problem with that.
00:25:09.640
But then DeSantis says, well, maybe up until eight, we shouldn't be talking about all this stuff. We can do
00:25:14.040
some basic biological stuff, maybe, but we shouldn't be having these conversations. That is the only
00:25:19.320
sensible opinion that you can have on this matter. And I'm all for conversations. I think that there
00:25:23.800
is some nuance and some discussion about when discussing sexuality, do we talk about just the
00:25:29.760
biology? At what point do we start talking about relationships? Like what is the appropriate
00:25:33.800
threshold for that? That's a conversation that we have to have, but it isn't pushing LGBTQ ideology on
00:25:39.780
kids under the age of eight. That much I can assure you of, and there's no room for wiggler
00:25:45.560
And I think when we say that people think this stuff is acceptable, I actually think we're
00:25:53.500
oversampling there. And it's because you and I watched the internet outrage on this. I think
00:25:59.680
Hollywood is fine with it. You know, Hollywood that hid Weinstein and Epstein were perfectly fine
00:26:07.140
with all of that. They were happy to see young starlets molested.
00:26:11.240
Someone else had a 40 by 40 mile island, I think. No, it was a little bit smaller, but there's some
00:26:19.500
Yeah. I mean, these are the people who kept their mouths shut. Who's that billionaire from
00:26:26.680
Peter Nygaard. Also kept their mouths shut about Peter Nygaard. Yeah, same people. You know, all these
00:26:31.520
weirdos with your private island. They just love that. They kept their mouths shut about that because it
00:26:36.040
furthered their career. They're the ones who are now telling us that they know best about what we
00:26:42.700
need to do as parents to protect our kids from people like that. And I think that they are, once
00:26:50.920
again, grossly misunderstanding the mama bear sentiment out there. Loudoun County was a great
00:26:57.380
example of this. Loudoun County. It mushroomed out of Loudoun County to the entire state of Virginia.
00:27:03.700
They flipped the state, a deep Democrat state. Republicans are running the show now because
00:27:09.620
it engaged people who were apolitical but said, this is my one issue. My kids. Stay away from my
00:27:17.020
kids. And so I think Hollywood is, they're underestimating this. And I think the share price
00:27:24.120
with Disney is a good gauge of this. That Disney and Hollywood are really disconnected about what
00:27:31.720
normal people think. And this is how you make, you know, Democrats, Reagan Democrats, this is how you
00:27:38.500
get them voting hard Republican all the time. This is how you radicalize those people against you.
00:27:43.760
And this is the thing. I mean, the progressives, they aren't sensible. They don't engage in rationality.
00:27:50.160
Very often, they'll go to extremes on issues we've seen with lots of the BLM stuff. And don't get me
00:27:54.840
wrong. There is a lot of sort of institutional racism. We're not pretending that that doesn't
00:27:58.260
exist in some faculties, but the stories that they rile up sometimes, once the facts come out,
00:28:04.160
they don't align with the story they're trying to tell. There's a hundred valid examples, but they're
00:28:10.100
so political that they're like, oh, no, this is the story that we're trying to tell now. But they've
00:28:14.120
lost track of that sort of reality. But we've seen on this issue, once you go after kids,
00:28:19.260
the moms become awake. We saw this with the original Benjamin 11 in the sex ed curriculum,
00:28:24.920
the moms just, and this was like immigrant communities, longstanding farming communities,
00:28:29.720
whatever it may be. They're like, we're not taking our kids to school. Get this out of here. And they
00:28:33.620
won. You go after kids. And that's what, that's what progressives do. They're not rational. They're
00:28:37.680
just going to be aggressive. And there's no, there's no, oh, well, we've come to a point where we're
00:28:42.680
accepted. So we're going to stop. It's not rational. They'll perpetually keep pushing and they can't
00:28:47.420
control themselves. And once they push back on kids, I think this Disney line that they've crossed,
00:28:52.240
this classroom line that they've crossed is once again, going to wake up the mama bears and you
00:28:56.240
just don't win because very often these, these folks, they're, they're so busy. They're in the
00:29:01.720
household, they're taking care of the family or they're working while taking care of the family,
00:29:05.400
whatever it is that they may be doing. They're, they're often very busy and they're very focused on
00:29:09.600
that. But when they're focused on their family, if you cross that line and threaten their family,
00:29:13.240
that focus on their family gets turned towards fighting off those intruders and they lose,
00:29:19.220
they lose every single time. The other thing too, is not only that, but those, those wives,
00:29:23.440
those moms, whatever it may be, they get their husbands activated then too. They definitely set
00:29:27.700
the bar for society to paraphrase Fulton Sheen, but they're, they're like, no, this isn't going to
00:29:33.360
happen. And then it quite simply doesn't. Speaking of which mother's day is coming up very,
00:29:39.520
very soon. And guys don't sit there. Don't wait for the last possible minute. If you're watching
00:29:46.580
this, if you're in a rebel household, we have some incredible stuff. Sheila wears it all the time.
00:29:51.240
Lots of our folks wear it. I know my wife, my mom, they've got the stuff. There's these really nice
00:29:56.700
women's cuts, babies, baby stuff. There's women's cut shirts on there. There's mugs. There's all sorts
00:30:02.640
of incredible stuff at rebel news store.com. We actually also have a promotion right now where it's
00:30:07.580
buy one, get one 25% off. And I think it's mom 25 is the code for that. So get an order and you can
00:30:14.380
get something for mom. You can get something for grandma. Look at those nice shirts. That's
00:30:18.600
incredible. And when you do this, you're getting them a meaningful gift. Lots of moms, maybe wouldn't
00:30:23.240
go and get this for themselves, but they're big rebel supporters. And it helps us in a couple ways.
00:30:28.060
One, we have all these cool moms out there rocking rebel gear, maybe some other moms or their friends
00:30:33.700
who don't know about rebel, but they're not really buying mainstream media. They check it out. And
00:30:38.080
they're like, what's this about? Um, two, when you purchase these shirts and you're getting a great
00:30:42.040
deal with this code, um, but it actually goes to support our independent journalism. We don't steal
00:30:46.440
money through your taxes. Uh, we just, we just say, Hey, if you want to support us, grab a shirt,
00:30:51.720
sign up for rebel news plus. So go to rebel news store.com, get something. Now I get the order. And as soon
00:30:56.800
as possible to make sure that it's here, get something for the kids too. If mom has a rebel shirt,
00:31:00.880
you know, the kids are going to want one too. I got to order some of these for my kids too,
00:31:04.780
for sure. Those are so good. Um, and yeah, so check it out. Rebel news store.com, get the mom,
00:31:10.520
grandma, whatever it may be in your life. One of these awesome shirts.
00:31:14.800
My son said he wants that. My mom is a rebel shirt, but in like a grownup size. Cause I only
00:31:20.820
have it in kids sizes right now, but niche. Yeah. My kid's almost 24 and he's like, yeah,
00:31:27.000
I'll wear that to work. So I know he has one of the stickers. I don't think we have him on the
00:31:32.720
store anymore, but the, I'm a rebel sticker. And it's like, he really is. He gets out and people
00:31:36.500
go, Hey, whoa. Yeah. Yeah. Those used to be bumper stickers in our store, but, uh, we should also
00:31:43.080
suggest, uh, to people that they should put their order in, um, because I think the promotion ends
00:31:47.420
at the end of the month, but we have free worldwide shipping. So take advantage of that. Um, you can get
00:31:53.320
something for your, you know, your wife, your kids, grandma, mother-in-law, don't forget the
00:31:57.880
mother-in-law, um, yourself while you're at it. Well, mom wouldn't be happy with a whole family
00:32:02.780
of matching shirts. That's just too cute. You know what? There's a good anniversary picture.
00:32:07.440
Not that weird thing that Justin Trudeau did. Exactly. For sure. Now, before we, uh, did our little
00:32:15.240
store talk, you were talking about your homes being invaded, um, by weird progressive ideology,
00:32:22.380
but they can also be physically invaded by, you know, burglars, home invaders. Weird progressives.
00:32:29.180
Weird progressives. And if that happens in the state of Florida, you know, God help the burglars.
00:32:35.820
We have, you know, and I often think like, okay, if Ron DeSantis does become the next president of the
00:32:43.040
United States, what will fill that vacuum? Well, the good news is in Florida, there are a ton of elected
00:32:49.440
sheriffs who would make really, really great governors. And this is one of them. Uh, we have
00:32:55.900
this clip from an official press conference. And as a Canadian, it's like watching something from
00:33:00.260
another planet because you know, those people are out there, you know, they exist, but you know,
00:33:03.960
you'll never hear it in your own country. Let's take a listen to this.
00:33:06.900
And I want to say, uh, ask to the person, we don't know what homeowner, which homeowner shot at him.
00:33:13.740
Um, I guess they think that they did something wrong, which they did not. If somebody's breaking
00:33:18.000
it in your house, you're more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County. We prefer that
00:33:21.580
you do actually. Um, so whoever that was, you're not in trouble. Come see us. We have a gun safety
00:33:28.820
class. We put on every other Saturday. And if you take that, you'll shoot a lot better and hopefully
00:33:33.560
you'll save the taxpayers money. So with that questions and I want to. Yeah. Wouldn't you want
00:33:40.720
to know what the questions were? Oh yeah. You know, you know, the, it was probably like,
00:33:46.540
do you recommend a nine millimeter or, um, you know, the, the incredible thing about this is,
00:33:53.220
and this is like how far we have slipped as a society. Obviously, if you can avoid killing
00:33:59.900
someone, that's ideal. That's the Christian thing to do, but probably 40 years ago, well,
00:34:07.660
if someone's breaking into your house, of course, maybe give them a warning. And if they continue,
00:34:11.600
that's protecting your property, protecting your family, that would have been a given.
00:34:16.180
It was get the gun. No one would have batted an eyelash at that. No doubt people out there think
00:34:21.760
this is crazy now. Like Canada, Canada, you literally have like, someone can break into your
00:34:29.180
house and you're like, enjoy, please. Can I make you a sandwich? That's what they expect you to do.
00:34:33.600
You can't do anything. You can't do anything. And if you do do something, you end up being sued by the
00:34:39.440
guy you winged and you get dragged to court. You are the one who's in trouble, um, for attempted
00:34:45.360
murder or whatever. That, that by the way, was Sheriff Bob Johnson in 2020. He ran unopposed.
00:34:56.820
Second term as the elected County Sheriff there. And in 2020, nobody even bothered to oppose him.
00:35:03.660
Um, and I love his philosophy of like, look, come get some gun training. So you don't miss next time.
00:35:09.280
You want to make sure that you hit center mass. Um, and then he made the fiscal argument for it. So
00:35:15.100
I'm all ears. Uh, Florida remains the best state in the Republic.
00:35:19.040
And the other sort of thing here is it's, it's literally, it doesn't actually have anything to
00:35:23.500
do what he's saying with shooting burglars. It's if there was a prominent threat within society
00:35:29.720
of if you rob somebody or break into their house, you're going to get blown away. People would stop
00:35:36.460
robbing people and breaking into their house. Cause it's like the police response time is like seven
00:35:40.280
minutes. I can get in and out in seven minutes. You call, I want to remind people of their anti-gun
00:35:44.800
progressives. The reason you're calling the police is because they have guns.
00:35:49.280
That's why you're calling the police because they have guns. If you're safe and you have a gun,
00:35:55.700
you can eliminate the middleman and the cops aren't going to get there in time to keep your
00:36:00.780
Why trust somebody else with your personal safety? I'm highly confident that I could probably take
00:36:06.300
care of myself if the state would let me. Um, I've gone to the gun range with cops and Alberta
00:36:13.800
sheriffs. I'm not going to name them, but I've been there at the gun range, just shooting
00:36:18.700
and the sheriffs are taking their training at the same time. Those guys couldn't hit the broad
00:36:24.400
side of a bar and they'd be better off throwing their service pistol at the bad guy. Because I mean,
00:36:30.540
it's just like watching them shoot was like, does that guy have a problem with his hands and one of
00:36:35.500
his hands on backwards? Like it was just really hard to watch. And I thought, these are the guys
00:36:41.020
who get to wear a gun to work every day. Why don't I get to wear a gun to work every day? I'm at
00:36:46.180
least more proficient. Anyway, if people want more, uh, Florida sheriffs, uh, talking smack about bad
00:36:55.200
guys, just go on a YouTube, a rabbit hole looking for Sheriff Grady Judd. Um, he's amazing. Very much
00:37:03.040
like Bob Johnson, same like pro gun, pro citizen, pro public safety. Uh, we're here to protect you
00:37:11.220
and then also leave you alone, which is exactly what you want from a cop. And we're here to ensure
00:37:16.380
that people leave you alone, including us. Yes, exactly. That's the police mission statement
00:37:22.100
that I want. Mark Neufeld, come on. I want to move to that town. Speaking of police, not leaving you
00:37:27.880
alone, um, and political policing. Why don't you tell us what's going on in Calgary? What went on
00:37:33.920
in Calgary this weekend? Because we saw the unequal policing happening in real time. Yeah. One law for
00:37:40.800
me, one for the, as Arthur Povoleski has been saying all along. Um, so there's this injunction in place
00:37:47.000
still against these peaceful protests. I'll remind everyone that the protests were going for two years
00:37:53.320
virtually without incident next to no violence, no arrests. They were in cooperation with the
00:37:59.640
police. The police would guide walks the few weeks. The police said we can't do a walk this week.
00:38:04.360
They wouldn't do walks. It was the, it was two years of like picture, perfect, peaceful protesting.
00:38:10.780
Um, Jyoti Gondek suddenly a month and a half, two months ago has a temper tantrum on Twitter and
00:38:17.700
decries these people and says that they're violent and that they're disruptive and all this stuff.
00:38:22.480
Keep in mind, they did done, they were in a park and then they walked for an hour through communities.
00:38:25.820
So they brought about this anti-protesting injunction that limited marches, limited access,
00:38:31.560
limited use to amplification, limited. Effectively, it was a direct attack on these protests.
00:38:36.460
Now that's concerning enough, but then we saw this glaring hypocritical double standard where
00:38:41.160
if there was a pro-Palestinian protest or a pro-Ukraine protest or a flames game, whatever it may be,
00:38:47.780
they could be breaking every single one of those rules and there'd be accommodations. But just this
00:38:51.920
one group, these freedom protesters, they'd be targeted and forced ticketed. In fact,
00:38:56.800
they were giving tickets out just for honking. And then when people started honking in defense
00:39:01.180
of the pro-Palestinian protests that was actually illegally taking place in the park while the
00:39:06.360
legal protest was taking place in the city. Also, while, while calls for genocide were being heard
00:39:10.840
just like openly. Yeah. They put away their books. They stopped writing down license plates because
00:39:16.460
they couldn't confirm whether the honks were pro-Palestinian or pro-freedom. And they didn't want
00:39:20.980
to by accident give a ticket to a pro-Palestinian honker. So it's absolutely insane. It has nothing
00:39:26.320
to do with silence. It has nothing to do with respect. So this weekend, I believe Comic-Con was
00:39:30.100
in town. Saline was on location. And they basically, I know that they originally planned to do a parade
00:39:34.740
full on in complete violation of the injunction. I guess it snowed quite a bit. So instead,
00:39:39.720
they blocked off the road, blocked off the sidewalks, used amplification for Comic-Con
00:39:44.760
effectively. So they had all these people out in costumes, blocking the roads, doing all this
00:39:49.720
stuff. No ticketing, nothing. Because I guess freedom is not kosher to protest for, but Gandalf
00:39:57.660
heading to the streets, which by the way, Gandalf would have been leading the March for Freedom.
00:40:01.040
That is completely allowed. That's completely tolerable. It's this glaring double standard.
00:40:07.000
We are going to have something on this for everyone tomorrow, not quite ready to roll,
00:40:11.140
but not exactly taking it without some action. So there will be an update shortly on this injunction
00:40:17.940
for everybody out there. But again, such a glaring double standard. And it's just further evidence.
00:40:23.320
And to an undeniable extent that we are seeing politicians who profess to, oh, well, Tyler
00:40:31.100
Chandler, Jason Kennedy, we didn't ask anybody to go after Arthur Poblowski. He's just randomly,
00:40:35.380
continuously targeted without cease. We didn't add, Jyoti Gondek goes on a Twitter tantrum. A week
00:40:41.360
later, this one protest she's mad about is being attacked by the police forces. These police forces
00:40:46.980
have become a security wing for politicians. They aren't upholding the criminal code. They aren't
00:40:51.820
upholding the charter. They aren't applying the test of law. They're just acting on the whims of
00:40:56.520
politicians and making examples of people. And it's pretty disappointing. Yeah, there's the tweet
00:41:02.580
from Jyoti Gondek, which one of the tweets I replied, well, that's not what happened. And she
00:41:06.480
immediately blocked me. I didn't say anything remotely disrespectful. I said, well, this is
00:41:10.060
inaccurate and this is not what happened in any way, shape or form. Blocked immediately because
00:41:15.980
apparently conversations are not tolerated anymore. Very sad to see, um, many of us big time. I mean,
00:41:23.820
I still am a big, like thin blue line back. Those guys, there's lots of good cops. Most of us are
00:41:31.320
probably pretty historically. Well, back. I mean, there's, there's issues, there's problems,
00:41:36.240
but we're generally going to stand by cops. But, uh, what Mark Newfelt and these politicians are doing
00:41:41.200
in police forces, Ottawa, the damage that they've done to policing is irreparable. Um, shockingly,
00:41:46.940
the amount of damage they've done going a long way to reinforce this defund the police narrative,
00:41:51.820
which what we need is training and well-equipped police who are not, uh, who are willing to say
00:41:56.900
no to an order that goes against the law in this country. That's what we need. Principled cops,
00:42:01.780
um, not politically activated cops. It's been like this since the very beginning though,
00:42:07.420
you know, when everybody is locked down, you can't open your business, uh, you can't have,
00:42:12.760
uh, public gathering, anything like that, but you could have thousands of people marching in the
00:42:17.740
streets for BLM, politicians taking a knee for BLM, the cops taking a knee during BLM while protesters
00:42:27.240
at the legislature were being hauled away by the sheriffs because they were violating public
00:42:32.580
gathering restrictions. We had the NDP in Edmonton speaking at the BLM event while they're in the
00:42:40.240
legislature calling for your business to be closed. We literally saw, I think it was May 31st,
00:42:45.320
Dina Hinshaw last year, May 31st, they, or was it the, yeah, last year, they made a new law when
00:42:52.900
there was pro-Palestinian protests so that they could protest. Gathering was illegal. Everything was
00:42:58.480
illegal. The other protests that people were having, that people were attending were illegal.
00:43:03.000
Chris Scott, Arthur Pawlowski, but a week later, the Palestinian pro-Palestinian crowd wanted to
00:43:07.000
protest and therefore they passed an amendment saying, oh, well, that they can protest. It's
00:43:12.000
insane. The thing that's absolutely like unbelievable for me is like, I don't know how these politicians,
00:43:19.860
I mean, they must, how they justify this in their brains. Like, like the amount of people in the city
00:43:28.000
who are happy with this and go along with it and think that it's fine. And it was just safety
00:43:32.800
measures for everyone's safety. Well, if it was safety measures for everyone's safety, it wouldn't
00:43:37.240
have been completely selectively enforced on certain ideological groups. Because by the way,
00:43:43.280
the things don't spread based on ideological groupings, but that they, they, they sure seem to
00:43:49.080
enforce based on that. So there's some distinct patterns. Certainly freedom protests and pastors
00:43:54.180
seem to be the only ones targeted throughout all of this illegal concerts, other faith groups.
00:44:00.180
Yeah. The same thing. These are the same people who say that, uh, and I'm running up to the line
00:44:06.080
with YouTube, but these are the same people who say church is a super spreader event. Um, but going to
00:44:12.920
Walmart and touching everything on the shelves, rubbing your nose, pulling down your mask, rubbing your
00:44:18.280
nose, touching the craft dinner, putting your mask back up and then putting the craft dinner back on
00:44:22.320
because you changed your mind. Um, that's fine. But people gathering together to worship God,
00:44:30.140
that's the problem with these people. And then they keep telling me to follow the science and I'm
00:44:34.120
trying, but I can't. But then it isn't even just people coming together and worshiping God because
00:44:38.940
well, I, I believe that, but people got together and worshiped other gods or their gods. And that was
00:44:45.420
completely acceptable. It's so, it's so glaringly nefariously evident. And we saw this and we've
00:44:52.760
talked about this before. While pastor Arthur Pawlowski was being arrested and harassed, there
00:44:58.200
was far larger denominations engaging in other religions, um, which we're not going to get into
00:45:03.840
because I don't want anyone to be targeted. I think everyone should be left alone, engaging in
00:45:07.240
far greater violations of the exact same rules, mere blocks away. Jason Kenny broke the rules. He said,
00:45:13.020
sorry, he didn't get charged with contempt of court. Um, there's just this glaring, ridiculous double
00:45:17.620
standard. And the government just needs to say, yeah, we really botched this. Everything is done.
00:45:22.740
We're moving on. There there's no other, like the legal repercussions from this are going to be
00:45:27.580
decades because there was just this absolutely uneven application of the law. Um, and it's, it's,
00:45:34.600
it's again, it's in this injunction. It's, it's sad. The whole world looked on at what happened in
00:45:38.940
Ottawa with a trucker convoy with like horror. They looked at the arrest of pastor Arthur Pawlowski
00:45:43.800
with horror police forces in Canada. Well, that's a good idea. We should emulate that more of that.
00:45:50.400
Let's do that. Yeah. Yeah. This, this got a lot of clicks on YouTube. We should do that. It seems
00:45:55.220
popular. Yeah. Yeah. Which I'm, I'm currently working on a story that I think people might be
00:46:01.440
interested in. I don't want to give too much of it away, but it is about the, remember back when
00:46:07.180
the bachelorette was going to be filmed in Alberta. Uh, that was in January of 2021 when
00:46:14.120
the news sort of got leaked out that you couldn't, uh, book a hotel room basically in Jasper
00:46:20.860
because the film production team had booked them all up, but then sort of things got a
00:46:27.100
little bit and then they, I think they eventually ended up going to New Mexico where the science
00:46:32.300
is different apparently. And, uh, I have all the mountain air. It's troubling. I have all the
00:46:39.300
documents and what we know or what we were allowed to know versus what they were doing. And when they
00:46:48.020
started doing it behind the scenes will infuriate you. And this is personal to me because during that
00:46:55.800
time, um, we could only have 10 people at my mom's funeral in a church that seats over 800 people.
00:47:03.800
Um, but the government was doing everything they could to trip over themselves to bring Hollywood
00:47:08.560
to Alberta. So stay tuned for that because we have all the documents, um, because we're asking
00:47:13.800
questions. Nobody else is. Uh, we have 13. It's called journalism. Yeah. It's journalism. I saw those
00:47:21.060
documents. I'm very much looking forward to that report though. I've gone back and I've looked at,
00:47:27.860
I, before we got on the call here, I looked at all the press conferences in and around the time that
00:47:32.920
things started happening for the bachelorette. The timeline is going to make you so mad.
00:47:40.000
Like, so you were, I guarantee you were making loud noises and slamming papers while you were,
00:47:45.040
oh, I, well, you were, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I had to muffle yourself laughing at,
00:47:51.120
at Amber Heard's lawyer just so I could feel better. Um, do we have any, uh, chats that we need to get
00:48:00.380
to their producer friends? Okay. Maybe you can send those in. In the meantime, we will
00:48:06.980
perhaps talk about this Blacklock story while you're digging those up and sending to us, uh,
00:48:12.380
the one about the CBC pundit. Yeah. If you wouldn't mind. It's, you know, the thing that's
00:48:18.920
absolutely unbelievable here is that right as there's more and more scrutiny, particularly with
00:48:24.120
some candidates in the conservative leadership, uh, saying like it's time to defund the CBC or
00:48:30.500
privatize the CBC or we need serious reform, or there's obviously a conflict of interest. Um, I think
00:48:36.620
Pierre Leslin, uh, Bourgo and a few others, uh, but Baber, I believe as well, have overtly said
00:48:42.240
they didn't want to defund the CBC. Um, right when there's all this additional scrutiny on the
00:48:48.500
billions being spent on media that nobody watches, a glaring conflict of interest, um, journalists
00:48:55.760
who are supposed to be holding the government accountable are not so that they can get more
00:48:59.320
money from the government. It's basically bribing going on. We're seeing contracts being awarded
00:49:04.020
to CBC pundits under the justification that, that, that there's no public interest in opening
00:49:09.500
contracts. By the way, generally you open up to see if there's other options available. You can save
00:49:14.200
some money who can provide. Apparently that is not in the public interest. What's in the public
00:49:18.080
interest under the liberals and under Justin Trudeau is handing cash out to your buddies and hoping
00:49:23.560
nobody catches you, but they, they caught them. Yeah. To your friends and sycophants. And there's,
00:49:30.100
this story has an extra layer of grossness in it because it also involves the, as, uh,
00:49:37.080
Ezra calls it, the Indian industry or the indigenous suffering industry where these people are
00:49:42.060
reconciliation experts, um, where they just sort of get in the middle because they see that there's
00:49:49.180
money to be had, um, pushing the idea of reconciliation. It reminds me of, uh, those people who advocate,
00:49:57.020
excuse me, advocate for drug, um, what they call it harm reduction, which is just giving drugs to
00:50:03.540
addicts, which is the exact opposite of what they need. And then they get sort of get government
00:50:08.140
funding to get in the middle of all this, but they never, there's no, uh, incentive to solve the
00:50:14.360
problem because if they solve the problem, then their consultancy fees go away. So naturally they're
00:50:19.300
like, no, we need harm reduction, not harm elimination. We need, uh, reconciliation consultants
00:50:25.420
instead of just getting reconciliation done. Um, this person is one of those people. So from
00:50:31.600
black locks from behind their paywall, um, this, if you are not a subscriber to black locks, this is one
00:50:37.220
of the best few hundred dollars you'll spend in a year. Uh, governor general, Mary Simon's office
00:50:43.800
awarded a $96,000 contract to a CBC pundit who told a network audience that Simon was the perfect
00:50:52.400
appointee. A CBC ethics code forbids undisclosed payments to on air commentators. So she's out
00:50:59.140
there stumping for Mary Simon, but also getting money from Mary Simon at the exact same time and
00:51:03.620
not telling the viewer any of this. And CBC is like, eh, it's fine. Rideau Hall documents
00:51:09.720
confirm the payments to Mary Wilson of Yellowknife as a reconciliation consultant. Then what does even
00:51:16.480
that mean? What does that person do? A $96,000 payment covering a 10 months work expires next
00:51:23.760
month. It was not in the public interest to solicit bids wrote the governor general's office. Wilson
00:51:29.140
is a former CBC executive. These people never get out of the public sector. They just mill around
00:51:34.660
anyways, who previously less money for more work. Who would this keeps going though? She was a CBC
00:51:42.260
executive who previously worked with the governor general's husband. It's fine. Wilson in 2016.
00:51:49.720
Oh, it gets worse. In 2016 was named a Trudeau foundation mentor. And in 2017 was appointed as
00:51:57.420
CBC director. Wilson also attended the governor general swearing in last July 26 and subsequently
00:52:03.200
praised the appointment in an August 7th CBC radio broadcast of the program, the house. Don't worry,
00:52:08.700
nobody listened to it anyway. Wilson's contract was formally signed August 16th. It was not disclosed
00:52:15.200
at the time. Just wow. This hits every, this checks all the boxes, right? Trudeau foundation, CBC,
00:52:23.500
untendered contracts, undisclosed conflicts of interest. This is everything I hate about the government
00:52:29.420
just in one story. Well, and you know what, like it's ridiculous and we can have a laugh at this
00:52:35.700
story, but on numerous levels, it is so nefarious and insidious. That's our taxpayers money. And this
00:52:42.460
is on the most, the most innocuous level. That is our taxpayer money being given to some activists
00:52:47.600
for agreeing and, and basically being sycophants for the Trudeau foundation. But I, I'd extend this
00:52:54.040
and suggest that this is why there's not clean drinking water for indigenous communities in this
00:52:59.480
country. This is the root of so many of our problems because instead of getting anything done,
00:53:04.740
instead of having open source bidding contracts to get water wells, water treatment stations,
00:53:10.780
whatever it may be done by the people who can do it most effectively, Sundance construction, et cetera,
00:53:15.940
et cetera. Um, they're, they're going to these, these old corporate cottage industries and the
00:53:21.120
indigenous community, they'll call it cottage industries. Trudeau and his buddies meet up with
00:53:24.080
their cottages by the lakes. They hand out contracts. They never source them to the public
00:53:28.160
or they source them to the same three friends and kind of divvy it up evenly. Um, those companies
00:53:33.200
that then behooves them to not provide solutions for these communities, because if you can temporarily
00:53:38.660
fix something or instead of updating, uh, an existing system, that would be a $3 million fix. Say you
00:53:45.140
have to tear it all down and develop a new $4 million or $40 million system. Um, and then knowing
00:53:50.660
that, that $40 million system, the UV rays reacts with the sulfur and actually makes the water
00:53:55.680
carcinogenic. And then that's another problem to fix. Um, it's the lack of accountability and it's
00:54:00.460
the lack of sort of fact seeking in these institutions where it's just friends paying friends and creating
00:54:06.520
problems is why kids can't take baths more than once every two weeks on some of these, uh, in some of
00:54:12.860
these communities because the water is acidic. It's absolutely sickening. And this has existed in
00:54:17.660
government, but it's incredible how quickly we talked about the communistic trend within society.
00:54:23.740
This degree of it is the type of thing you see in Castro's Cuba or even the Soviet, um, countries
00:54:29.820
are in China in full on Chinese communism style situations. And it's, it's getting that bad in
00:54:37.480
Canada and people are suffering as a result. Um, people aren't willing to look at the facts as
00:54:42.560
government is not interested in fixing solutions. Um, they're interested in, in maintaining, like
00:54:47.740
you said, and it's interesting how many different niches you see this happen. And you talked about
00:54:52.720
providing drugs and harm reduction. You talk about truth and reconciliation. There's never an end to
00:54:58.400
anything because then the jobs would go away. And this is like one of those actors at CBC who just,
00:55:03.860
none of their shows are successes, but they keep on getting shows and getting paid. Um, that that's,
00:55:08.500
that's what's happening on a sort of macro level with this government. It's happened for a long
00:55:13.400
time, but it's gotten so, so much worse under Justin Trudeau. And, uh, here's hoping that it
00:55:17.980
won't last too much longer. You know, this whole, what you're talking about happening on reserves,
00:55:24.580
it's replicated, like I said, exactly in the harm reduction strategy happening in Vancouver that they
00:55:31.540
want to, that hasn't worked there in 20 years, by the way, that they want to roll out in cities all
00:55:35.060
across the country. It's like things are as bad as ever there. Why do you want to do this
00:55:39.780
everywhere else? But it was the Portland hotel society. And I remember so clearly because
00:55:44.580
the NDP were involved in that the woman, the man who is the head of the Portland hotel society,
00:55:50.900
which is like the harm reduction plate people there. She, uh, Jenny Kwan, uh, her husband was the
00:55:58.400
head of it. I think, I think they've subsequently divorced probably to save her political career,
00:56:02.580
but they were going to Europe, Disneyland, wherever charging limos, taking limos, charging it all back
00:56:10.660
to the Portland hotel society, which was getting money from the provincial government to administer
00:56:15.620
these harm reduction programs. They had no incentive to actually solve the problem of people overdosing
00:56:21.380
and dying and getting them treatment because then their expense accounts dry up. Yeah. NDP,
00:56:28.020
Jenny Kwan went to Portland hotel society funded Disneyland and Europe trips. Yeah. Family trip.
00:56:34.500
You're taking the kids to Disneyland and you don't think anything's weird about expensing this
00:56:39.220
to the harm reduction society. It's all the same. It's so rampant. Yeah, it is so rampant. And it's like,
00:56:48.340
I mean, it's shocker. There's this mentality among progressives that like the government
00:56:53.060
is more sensible than people know the government will spend $20 on an apple that you can go buy
00:56:57.540
at the store for 89 cents. That's government in a nutshell, somebody's expenses to go down there
00:57:02.340
and pick it up. Yeah, exactly. It's, it's shocking. And it's, uh, it's so emblematic of what is going on.
00:57:08.580
We need massive reduction in government because it's just getting worse and worse and worse.
00:57:13.540
And with some of these new wacky sort of ideas being pushed UBI, whatever else it may be,
00:57:18.900
it's just going to get worse and worse and worse. And the worst thing is these people dare to have
00:57:23.700
the audacity to pretend that they're advocating for the middle class while their massive expenditures
00:57:28.580
are causing inflation, causing the house prices to double under Justin Trudeau on average,
00:57:33.540
utter hypocrisy. It's gross. Yeah. Well, like this reconciliation expert or consultant,
00:57:38.580
sorry, I won't call her an expert. She's the only thing she's an expert at is
00:57:42.020
milking the taxpayer for a career. Um, $100,000 as a reconciliation consultant,
00:57:48.340
that $100,000 could have gone a long way on a reserve. Yeah. Um, I wonder how many hours she worked.
00:57:55.060
Yeah. I'd love an hourly breakdown. Yeah. Yeah. I would like to see some tangibles,
00:58:00.980
please. Cause that's what they do in the private sector. Yeah. Um, Olivia, I'm going to skip over
00:58:08.900
Fraser's first comment there, just because I think it will cause us to run afoul of the YouTube
00:58:15.620
sensors. And we've kept the show on for this long that I don't want to remove us. And Fraser,
00:58:20.580
I'm really sorry. You know, we love you. You're, you know, one of our lowest, most loyal viewers
00:58:25.220
and watchers, but I'm just going to skip over that one just so that I don't get everybody in trouble.
00:58:29.780
Um, and then end our YouTube existence. Sorry, Fraser, but appreciate the five bucks. So thank
00:58:36.180
you very much. So we'll go to Fraser's second comment, uh, that begins with in the 1960s.
00:58:41.860
Perfect. In the 1960s, I worked as a bag boy at 75 cents an hour. Now we have to bag our own
00:58:46.820
groceries and pay for the bags ourselves. How I wish I lived in Florida. How about you? You know,
00:58:51.860
you got to ring yourself in too. Like, that's the thing. I sometimes for spite, I'm like,
00:58:58.740
I'm carrying two things. I'm going to wait in this darn line because there's no incentive for me
00:59:07.300
to go ring myself in. Like if you gave me a 10% discount on my groceries, because you don't have
00:59:12.660
to pay a human being to ring me through, I'm listening. But if I got to go ring myself in so
00:59:19.460
that you save money, I'm not sure I like that. Um, sometimes I just wait in a line for spite.
00:59:24.580
I realize I'm wasting my own time, but I don't care. I'm proving a point.
00:59:28.420
People in the sixties were like, Oh yeah. Can you imagine like 2022? Um, they're, they're going to
00:59:34.500
have the airplanes. It's going to be so like, we can smoke and have a meal on an airplane and
00:59:38.820
we're going to, we're so comfortable. Imagine what it's going to be like in the future. And like,
00:59:42.820
all the groceries, the things we're going to have access to, but, and if they were to jump ahead to 2022,
00:59:47.140
what we have now is straws that don't last for half a drink. So, uh, not quite as shiny a future
00:59:52.820
as we thought paper straws. Yeah. They said we were going to have flying cars and instead we've
00:59:59.060
got a robot that rings in your groceries, but you still have to operate it and it doesn't save you any
01:00:05.060
money at all. Anyway, uh, tank shop. Steve gives us 30 bucks. Holy heck. Thanks very much. Um,
01:00:12.820
good morning. She, yeah, no kidding. Good morning, Sheila. I saw you post on Twitter,
01:00:16.020
a Jerry can key chain and I saw Leslie and Lewis post the same thing. Where can I get one? If you
01:00:22.180
go, I don't have the young ladies contact information, but if you go back on my Twitter
01:00:26.180
feed where you saw that, just go to search the media. You don't want to put up with all my tweets
01:00:29.860
and scroll back. Just go to the media section on my Twitter feed and just go back and you should find,
01:00:34.340
uh, the photo I posted. I posted her little Etsy store business card there. So you should be able to
01:00:39.140
find her on Etsy there. Um, but I just didn't want to give out like this 10 year old girl's
01:00:44.660
phone number and email address, but you can contact her Etsy store because I think her parents help her
01:00:48.340
manage that. So there's a grownup on the other end of that. So if you go back, you should be able to
01:00:53.540
find, um, find her contact information. Um, yeah, she's 10 years old. She's, I guess she's doing like
01:01:00.820
crazy business on them. Like it says on one side, uh, Jerry can, Trudeau can't.
01:01:05.780
So it's kind of fun. It's like a drink box, water bottle sort of thing. So anyways, uh,
01:01:12.180
sorry, I can't be more help, but she's also 10 years old. So I don't want to give out her,
01:01:15.460
her phone number and stuff. You're not Disney. Yeah, I'm not Disney. I'm not a groomer. Uh,
01:01:21.540
JPH, uh, 1944 gives us a buck. How can Trudeau claim cabinet confidentiality to block an
01:01:27.540
investigation into his invoking the emergencies act? What could possibly be confident confidential?
01:01:34.180
So this is a catchall that, uh, the federal government does because it's even more, um,
01:01:41.140
of a catchall than claiming, Oh, personal information, because usually when they claim
01:01:45.300
personal information, they, you make them draw a line through the personal information
01:01:48.740
and then give you everything that's not personal information, uh, redact email addresses, phone
01:01:53.060
numbers, whatever. But this, they know that sometimes discussions within cabinet are confidential.
01:02:01.460
They're not subject to access to information, including those memos and things like that.
01:02:05.540
And so they sort of put everything they don't want you to know underneath all that. And I think
01:02:12.740
there will have been some conscientious objectors within cabinet saying,
01:02:17.700
what are you doing? This is crazy. We can't do this. And I think if they release those documents,
01:02:23.780
you would see the people who remain normal, or at least are hanging on to a shred of normalcy and
01:02:30.580
decency within the cabinet versus Trudeau and Freeland who were like, no, we need to drop the hammer down.
01:02:35.940
We need to go full Venezuela on these protesters. And, uh, I think that's it. They just don't want the
01:02:41.940
public to see the divide that unfolded within caucus. Um,
01:02:48.180
because I think it would cost some of those people, some of those people, their jobs within caucus,
01:02:53.460
but also some of the like pro pro crackdown people. I think they wouldn't want those discussions made public.
01:03:01.220
Uh, and we've got one from Kane and Mark gives us two bucks.
01:03:08.740
You, Adam were blocked by the Calgary mayor's account because you are white.
01:03:14.420
I don't think so. I think she just doesn't think it's because I was right.
01:03:18.180
Right. Exactly. I think she just doesn't like criticism. And so as a, as a touchy public official
01:03:25.140
who will out of one side of her mouth claim that journalists need to be treated fairly,
01:03:29.060
and they should be able to hold politicians to account, she'll block the ones that try to hold
01:03:32.900
her to account that don't kiss her feet as the, you know, female mayor of Calgary,
01:03:38.500
la dee da, like we're supposed to care at this point. So that's what I think.
01:03:44.420
Uh, I think we're all cut up and we're five minutes past the hour and I have a lot of access
01:03:49.300
to information documents to read and a couple of meetings to get to. Um, Adam,
01:03:53.620
thank you so much for being my cohost today. Thank you everybody at home who tuned in.
01:03:58.180
Thank you to everybody in the studio in Toronto, including the people behind the scenes who work
01:04:02.980
really hard to make sure that we are published and available for you to watch us wherever you
01:04:07.300
might find us. Thank you to everybody who pitched in a little bit to keep the lights on. Sorry,
01:04:11.540
Fraser, I couldn't read that one comment. Um, but I just didn't want to be the one who destroyed the
01:04:16.420
channel. I always assumed it would be David Menzies and I, I'm holding to that. Um, and as my friend
01:04:23.300
David Menzies says, stay sane. Thank you everybody for taking the time of your busy lives to come
01:04:31.540
and listen to what I have to say here tonight. You know, I've heard from so many truckers that were
01:04:37.060
in Ottawa, that Joe was the guy who was there making sure they had a roof over their head,
01:04:42.340
kind of quietly doing things behind the scenes to make sure that that effort could go off.
01:04:46.660
That says a lot back in a time when he was phoning other MPs to come out and to show their support and
01:04:52.740
nobody returned the calls. He was there on the front lines, making sure that that happened.
01:04:57.620
Those freedom fighters were supported in the ways that they needed.
01:05:00.340
Because Joseph is the only candidate in the race who's not connected to the World Economic Forum
01:05:05.860
in some way, shape or form. So that's why I'm here. And the biggest reason why we're in this state
01:05:11.380
is because of the World Economic Forum. And if you want to call me a conspiracy theorist,
01:05:16.580
just go to Klaus Schwab's video where he tells the world that basically half of the government
01:05:22.100
of Canada belongs to the World Economic Forum. Thank you everybody.
