Transcript
00:00:11.540
That is the intellectual capital of the left today.
00:00:29.420
I'm David Menzies, and my co-host, well, let me tell you a little bit about my co-host.
00:00:35.020
You know, folks, that today is International Special Librarians Day,
00:00:41.340
and my co-host was going to go down to the Coburg Public Library
00:00:49.080
but she just didn't want to bump into a vulgar drag queen.
00:00:55.280
She is the Khaleesi of the greater Coburg area.
00:01:03.360
Well, I'm glad I decided to wear my librarian glasses today
00:01:12.240
I'm experiencing a Clark Kent Superman thing here, you know?
00:01:32.460
So I guess all those decades reading Superman comics where I was such a skeptic,
00:01:37.320
even as a child, how is this guy fooling anyone with glasses?
00:01:46.060
So let's not get our gender confused there with Superman, Spider-Man, all the man's.
00:01:51.940
That gets the wheels turning on how we go forward with these figures in wake of gender being
00:02:01.520
But anyway, that's not part of our discussion today.
00:02:05.900
Before we get into the news of the day, if you're joining us, this is our daily live stream,
00:02:11.020
a daily roundup where we dissect to get into the news of the day.
00:02:15.640
And we are streaming live on a few different platforms.
00:02:20.860
Those seem to be the least censorious, well, and Twitter, the least censorious platforms.
00:02:28.360
I should say that Getter is also a non-censorious platform.
00:02:31.480
But YouTube, which we are currently streaming live on, is, well, becoming more and more censorious.
00:02:38.680
So if we get into certain topics, which I don't think we will today, we will have to cut our stream there.
00:02:45.520
So I would just urge anyone who is over on YouTube, which we have a fairly large following there,
00:02:53.600
So if you are following us on YouTube, just head over to one of those other platforms,
00:02:57.580
Rumble, Odyssey, Getter, or Twitter, and join us there.
00:03:01.740
YouTube has almost demonetized, sorry, almost deplatformed us.
00:03:07.800
So you can no longer give us a small monetary donation in the form of a chat
00:03:12.100
where we can discuss and engage with you during the live stream.
00:03:14.940
But you can still do that on, I believe it's Rumble and Odyssey.
00:03:21.540
And if you chip in $5 or more, then we will read your comment on screen.
00:03:26.860
So please head on over there and do that because we love to hear from our viewers
00:03:31.600
and we love to get your views, but also provide commentary back and forth.
00:03:36.340
So it's a fun way to keep our journalism afloat because we don't take handouts from the government
00:03:43.160
So first and foremost, David, do you want to kick off this short clip that we have of Trudeau
00:03:56.480
I mean, I'm getting sort of confused following all the scandals.
00:04:01.540
Is this Chinese influence with certain liberals running in the last two or three federal elections,
00:04:12.380
Or is this more fallout from the Trudeau Foundation?
00:04:18.060
Looks like they were trying to refund that donation from a Chinese billionaire,
00:04:23.760
but it's kind of looking like he didn't make the donation.
00:04:33.760
I mean, this scandal, pardon me, these scandals, Tamara, are going from bad to worse to downright rancid.
00:04:46.080
A Trudeau family friend will be the special rapporteur for the Chinese influencing.
00:04:55.180
Once again, because this joke doesn't go stale, we're going to have a Johnson investigating a dong.
00:05:04.460
But, yeah, let's see Blackface trying to spin this again.
00:05:10.580
Now he's, I guess he's taking a shot with Pierre Polyev.
00:05:17.820
David Johnston is one of the most appropriate, and he's a man of incredible integrity.
00:05:29.760
His ability to look into the question of foreign interference in our political systems remains something that is extremely important to do
00:05:40.400
And I will highlight as well that the snarkiness with which the leader of the official opposition is approaching these serious issues
00:05:50.580
doesn't do him any credit, and it doesn't do credit to the kinds of serious discussions need to be had around foreign interference.
00:06:00.860
But right now, Blackface has to forget the whole special rapporteur kabuki theater and go right to having a public inquiry look into this mess
00:06:19.440
Yeah, well, there should have been a public inquiry called from the onset, and I believe in the House of Commons,
00:06:23.280
they did vote to launch a full public inquiry, but Trudeau and his ministers seem to be hiding behind the idea
00:06:32.340
that this would expose some sort of issues of national security.
00:06:37.580
And so as a result, you see Trudeau appoint what he calls a special rapporteur.
00:06:43.300
I don't know what makes Johnston so special other than the fact that he was part of the Trudeau Foundation.
00:06:49.720
I mean, he's clearly special to Trudeau, but he's not special in his ability or his merits to be able to conduct such an investigation.
00:06:57.320
In fact, I would argue that he is quite the opposite.
00:07:01.420
And that was a hit on the leader of the opposition, Pierre Polyev, leader of the Federal Conservative Party,
00:07:07.860
who has since issued a tweet that we have we can pull up.
00:07:11.300
And I love just sort of the blunt forthcomingness of this, if that's even a word, of this publication.
00:07:22.840
So he sends it to this special rapporteur, David Johnston, even titles it special rapporteur,
00:07:36.200
How will you investigate Beijing's donation to the Trudeau Foundation when you are part of the Trudeau Foundation?
00:07:49.520
And Canadians are kind of just sitting here with bated breath, wondering the same.
00:07:54.500
And Blackface is saying, oh, no, I have nothing to do with the Trudeau Foundation,
00:07:58.780
despite the fact that it has my surname attached to it,
00:08:01.720
despite the fact that there are blood relatives on the Trudeau Foundation.
00:08:07.460
As for this special rapporteur, I mean, that just shows you the conceit.
00:08:12.580
You know, Blackface, he's extra special, you see, Tamara.
00:08:21.300
It's a special rapporteur, which, by the way, don't let the moniker fool you, folks.
00:08:29.860
And the advisor happens to be a family friend that Trudeau has known for like four decades.
00:08:38.420
How about just getting a garden variety Toronto rapporteur?
00:08:42.500
I understand there's many of those available after last night when the Chicago Bulls bounced
00:08:53.400
Well, and if anyone at home who's listening doesn't take your word for it, that this is
00:08:58.160
a family friend, we have that straight from the horse's mouth.
00:09:00.860
Trudeau himself, and we'll show you the clip here, actually, he admitted that this special
00:09:05.940
rapporteur, David Johnston, is in fact a close family friend.
00:09:12.120
I've known the governor general since I was a kid, visiting him and his daughters when
00:09:18.360
he was principal at McGill, to spending time on the ice or the slopes at their family home
00:09:24.280
the Laurentians, and I've always known him to be a man of strength, intelligence, and compassion.
00:09:34.120
But getting to know someone as a family friend or a friend of your father's is very different
00:09:42.300
from having the honor of working alongside them.
00:09:45.460
So it has been a true honor since the beginning of my mandate to come to know the governor general
00:09:52.500
not only as a friendly neighbor, quite literally, but as a man of integrity who embodies the principles
00:10:04.540
A fellow educator and lifelong learner, His Excellency has dedicated his life to public service.
00:10:11.160
Whether it was at McGill or at Rideau Hall, his career has been marked by his willingness
00:10:16.880
to give back to a country that has given us all so much to be thankful for.
00:10:29.460
Gee, I wonder if during that relationship, the teenage Justin Trudeau went to David Johnson's
00:10:35.840
house and said, excuse me, sir, can I borrow a cup of blackface, please?
00:10:42.920
I want to dress up as a African-American person and stick out my tongue and make sure you have
00:10:49.480
a lot of it so I can cover my arms and legs with that.
00:10:54.720
But, you know, it's how blatant is this, Tamara, that he would basically admit to a conflict
00:11:05.760
of, you know, in terms of appointing David Johnson, a family friend, a great neighbor,
00:11:16.380
And by the way, there's plenty of blame to go around here.
00:11:19.100
David Johnson, if he is this, you know, top shelf kind of public official, he should have
00:11:28.260
He should have said, you know, yes, the Trudeaus are family friends.
00:11:31.940
But for that reason, I cannot accept this position because it is either a conflict of interest,
00:11:39.740
which it is, or it gives the appearance of a conflict of interest, which, Tamara, is just
00:11:49.400
But being family friends aside, this person also was part of the Trudeau Foundation, which
00:11:56.260
is now being discovered, received donations, questionably, from Beijing, the Chinese Communist,
00:12:03.320
the Communist Party of China, which is where the election interference and meddling in our
00:12:14.200
And so, you know, you're killing two birds with one stone here.
00:12:17.520
This person is both conflict of interest riddled as a family friend, but also as a member of the
00:12:24.120
very foundation that's said to be, in part, receiving the financial meddling by the CCP.
00:12:31.220
So why, yeah, this person that is espoused as having such integrity isn't recusing themselves.
00:12:38.720
I mean, we know that Justin Trudeau does not have integrity.
00:12:42.460
This is the prime minister with the most ethics violations against him in Canadian history.
00:12:48.800
And so we don't expect much more in terms of merit from the prime minister, sadly enough.
00:12:55.520
But you would think that this individual holds themselves to such regard and with such integrity,
00:13:02.900
then yeah, absolutely, David, you're right, that they would recuse themselves.
00:13:06.200
But here we are in Canada being riddled with conflict of interest, left, right and center
00:13:13.820
So this is just another nail in the coffin, in my opinion, on that.
00:13:20.920
So maybe we should move on here to the next little clip.
00:13:24.200
Before we do, I'm sorry, my friend, but in the interest of accuracy, I have to correct you.
00:13:29.960
You said that Trudeau said Johnson was a man of integrity.
00:13:33.940
Incredible integrity was the quote, you know, just like it's not just a rapporteur, it's a special rapporteur.
00:13:48.360
And I'll tell you why he doesn't have incredible integrity.
00:13:50.720
Like I said earlier, if he did, he would recuse himself from this position.
00:13:59.420
Well, we have another clip here where Trudeau denies that his justice minister, who has said previously that he is looking to take control of individual provinces and territories, natural resources.
00:14:16.240
So that's David Lamedi and the prime minister essentially.
00:14:21.460
Well, you'll hear from him yourself, but he essentially accuses premiers of being non committed to UNDRIP.
00:14:27.560
That's the United Nations Declarations on the Rights of Indigenous People.
00:14:32.220
So we're going to talk about that, but let's show you this clip first.
00:14:37.680
I wanted to ask about the Natural Resources Transfer Act.
00:14:40.960
Is it appropriate, in your opinion, to review the agreements?
00:14:43.700
And how do you address the concerns raised by the prairie premiers?
00:14:52.780
If you actually look at his remarks, it is very clear that we're talking about the importance of the federal government living up to our responsibilities under UNDRIP.
00:15:02.540
Something that, unfortunately, the prairie premiers have not taken seriously.
00:15:05.980
And they are instead trying to elevate fears that have absolutely no grounding in truth.
00:15:13.900
We know we need to move forward in true reconciliation and partnership with Indigenous peoples.
00:15:18.860
And that's something that we certainly hope we're going to be able to work on with the premiers and with Indigenous peoples.
00:15:24.900
To be able to grow the economy and create those great jobs, including in natural resources, that are going to be there for decades to come as we move towards a net zero world.
00:15:43.800
What is it we have like over 30 reserves where there is a boil advisory for the drinking water?
00:15:50.160
And I remember a protester, I think it was Grassy Narrows, if memory serves as well, in the last election campaign, she complained about this and he mocked her.
00:16:00.880
He made a joke about this female Native complaining about the fact that their reserve does not have drinking water.
00:16:08.300
And then when it comes to creating good, sustainable jobs, quite the opposite is happening.
00:16:13.260
We know with the number of oil sands projects shut down, and believe me, there are many Natives that are employees with these good, high-paying jobs.
00:16:24.460
They're the ones losing out, as well as other Canadians.
00:16:32.020
And what is he talking about when he says that Lamedi didn't say those things?
00:16:36.260
I mean, maybe for our viewers at home, we should have perhaps started with this clip, but we have the clip.
00:16:46.360
From Chief Brian, also from Chief Don Miracle, the point about the natural resources transfer agreement.
00:17:01.880
I obviously can't pronounce on that right now, but I do commit to looking at that.
00:17:07.980
It won't be uncontroversial, is the only thing I would say with a bit of a smile.
00:17:18.700
Yeah, but why would you say it won't be uncontroversial, as I say, with a bit of a smile?
00:17:24.140
What are you smiling about when you're creating controversy?
00:17:26.660
I can tell you what the politics are behind this, when it comes in and trying to control
00:17:32.080
the resources of the provincial prairie provinces.
00:17:37.200
It's this, Tamara, even if there is outrage in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and so forth, it doesn't
00:17:51.580
And so the idea that we're going to do some virtue-signaling, controversial move, and even
00:17:59.840
if it makes the average Albertan seethe, big deal.
00:18:03.920
Well, we've written off Alberta decades ago, so it's no harm, no foul.
00:18:11.960
Well, and for anyone at home who might not know what exactly we're talking about, I'd like
00:18:18.400
to just pull up Drea Humphrey, our BC reporter's report on the subject, back from December of
00:18:26.280
So a few months ago, she did a really in-depth report here, and I'm not sure if we can pull
00:18:30.540
it up on screen, but I just wanted to read the first few paragraphs.
00:18:37.420
She does a full-length interview here, but I'll just read from her written copy.
00:18:42.200
It says, have you heard of the UN Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act?
00:18:48.160
It's described by the Canadian government as a law to affirm, recognize, and emphasize
00:18:54.080
the respect and recognition of the human rights of Indigenous peoples.
00:18:57.840
And I think there are only a select few countries where this is happening, Canada, United States,
00:19:06.300
But while it may sound like a positive step toward more truth and reconciliation, in this
00:19:11.080
report, you'll learn that Canada's adoption of UNDRIP could lead to a two-tiered system
00:19:16.100
where those who don't fall into the UN's policies, ambiguous definition of Indigenous peoples wind
00:19:26.140
And in this report, she interviews Ron Valant, who is a concerned Albertan and has been sounding
00:19:34.540
And I guess he also ran in the federal election as a People's Party of Canada candidate.
00:19:40.300
But there are specific concerns here with UNDRIP Articles 5, 26, 28, 30, and 36.
00:19:47.560
And I know we had a couple tweets also from Dave Shrigley where we can just show you what
00:19:58.060
Let me just pull them up and maybe we can also pull them up on screen at the same time.
00:20:04.520
So Article 26, this is from the UNDRIP document itself.
00:20:09.480
Indigenous peoples have the right to the lands, territories, and resources which they have
00:20:13.660
traditionally owned, occupied, or otherwise used or acquired.
00:20:26.700
Article 38 states in consultation and cooperation.
00:20:37.980
Indigenous peoples shall take the appropriate measures, including legislative measures,
00:20:47.180
So this really, again, similar to all these globalist power grabs, the WHO, the UN, the
00:20:53.380
World Economic Forum, this threatens the sovereignty of our nation and really threatens private land
00:20:59.700
ownership, as detailed in this interview that Drea does with Ron.
00:21:04.880
So for anyone who isn't sure about what UNDRIP is, I would highly suggest that you go and check
00:21:10.340
And you can even pull up the declaration yourself to have a read through it because it's
00:21:14.940
obviously ambiguously worded, but the interpretation of it can be very concerning.
00:21:25.880
You've got something about the rights of Indigenous peoples.
00:21:32.420
But like you just did, you went into the nitty gritty and it's all about a pro-globalist agenda.
00:21:39.500
Again, dissolving private land ownership rights.
00:21:44.200
And I mean, there's so many countries all across the world where, you know, who were
00:21:49.120
the first people of the land and will they be coming to claim their property rights in
00:21:57.080
I mean, this is, it's a rabbit hole to go down and to start to, to try to give land back
00:22:04.760
or acknowledge the rights of the first peoples of the land.
00:22:07.700
I mean, I'm not saying that there aren't any atrocities that happened here to the First
00:22:12.580
Nations and the Indigenous people, but this piece of legislation doesn't come from the
00:22:18.860
It doesn't come from an independent country's government.
00:22:25.800
So that in and of itself is very concerning and again, threatens the sovereignty of our nation
00:22:36.460
Like that's a very slippery slope to try to implement these extremely ambiguously worded
00:22:41.640
articles with no clear definition, as Drea says in this report, of what an Indigenous
00:22:48.400
And you know what, Tamara, for what it's worth, I just can't get past that acronym, UNDRIP.
00:22:52.780
It's like you go to a plumber and say, I've got a dripping faucet.
00:23:01.060
You know, we have to take an ad break right now, Tamara.
00:23:03.900
But on the other side, it looks like our expose of that fraudulent fraudster, that lying liar,
00:23:12.560
that grifter, the most infamous shop teacher in the world, Kerry Luke, aka Kayla, aka Busty Lemieux.
00:23:24.620
So once again, the ball is in the court of those hopeless woke joke educrats at the Halton District
00:23:32.000
Are they going to do the right thing and basically fire him for lying to his employer?
00:23:36.900
But we'll get right into that and we'll show a clip from the Gutfield show right after this, folks.
00:23:49.360
So is this hoodie I got on and you could have it on too if you check out our special website
00:23:56.780
That's where you can see Freedom Focus hoodies that we have for you, beanies, cell phone cases, you name it,
00:24:03.280
all while supporting our journalism where we fight to bring you the other side of the story
00:24:08.160
as opposed to, you know, being forced by the Trudeau government to fund leftist media out of your taxes.
00:24:15.000
The truth is, without you and your generosity, there is no rebel news.
00:24:20.280
So again, if you like the reports that we bring you and that we also fight for freedoms in Canada,
00:24:27.080
please consider doing some shopping, picking up some swag at rebelnewsstore.com.
00:24:37.280
Are you liking the banter on our live stream that you're watching right now?
00:24:41.260
If so, you should know that you can get exclusive rebel news content by going to rebelnewsplus.com.
00:24:48.240
You'll get special shows from my colleagues, Sheila Gunn-Reed, Ezra Levant, as well as the Menzoid Menzies.
00:24:56.500
And you'll also get to view our exclusive documentaries, including the one that tells you the truth
00:25:03.100
of what was actually discovered, at least what is known to be discovered so far,
00:25:12.900
Well, the remains of 215 children have been found in a mass grave in Canada.
00:25:19.680
Many of you know that just over a year ago, the discovery of the remains of 215 children
00:25:25.660
was found at the Kamloops Indian Residential School at the Kamloops Shaswemek First Nation.
00:25:31.460
But what if I were to show you that what I just said wasn't true,
00:25:36.120
and that, in fact, a year later, not a single body has been found?
00:25:42.400
This mass grave is a painful reminder of the genocide.
00:25:47.880
Kamloops and his leaders aren't condemning the burning of churches.
00:25:53.040
A juvenile rib bone that surfaced in the same area.
00:25:55.900
You'd be surprised the number of people who say, you know,
00:25:59.000
I'm a doctor, I'm a paramedic, and this is definitely a human bone, and it's definitely not true.
00:26:18.940
Well, in addition to that particular documentary,
00:26:21.800
we have one underway currently that they're filming with our head of documentary,
00:26:26.760
Kian Simone, and, of course, our chief editor, Sheila Gunn-Reed.
00:26:31.300
You can find out more at the special URL that we have, which is savethechristians.com.
00:26:43.700
and it's a comprehensive documentary on the abuse of Christian pastors and churches in Canada
00:26:54.480
And so we are crowdfunding for the fees associated with travel and to see the documentary through.
00:27:03.240
So if you want to see the trailer there and follow along,
00:27:13.200
They've been putting in a lot of really hard work over the last few weeks.
00:27:16.260
Some really compelling interviews will come out of that one.
00:27:18.920
But I think, David, you wanted to throw to an appearance that some of your footage had last night.
00:27:28.700
Speaking of hard work, Lincoln, Jay, and I spent so many days, countless hours,
00:27:40.720
We wanted to catch him dressed as a male sans breast because, you may recall,
00:27:48.120
he claimed several weeks ago to the New York Post those breasts were real.
00:27:55.220
He has a very rare medical condition, which gives him enormous breasts.
00:28:00.760
The condition does exist, but get a load of this, Tamara.
00:28:03.160
300 people are afflicted with it, according to the Cleveland Clinic,
00:28:11.840
So this guy really is a modern medical miracle.
00:28:15.640
So why don't we roll the Gutfield clip from last night
00:28:25.900
because April 19th, that's the next Halton District School Board meeting,
00:28:33.440
I've been trespassed for life from the Halton District School Board
00:28:36.680
because these trustees, they're down with the radical trans revolution, folks,
00:28:41.940
except when it comes right into their den in the form of a reporter
00:28:47.460
donning exactly the same props as a shop teacher.
00:28:50.440
Then they don't like the impoliteness of it all.
00:28:53.840
Anyways, let's run Gutfield's clip, and we'll take it up after this.
00:29:04.060
Suddenly the non-binary male is on par with the actual female in the area of rights.
00:29:11.940
Now in articles decrying sexual discrimination,
00:29:14.680
females and trans females are grouped together,
00:29:23.400
but also become a protected class and wear pumps.
00:29:32.380
The Canadian teacher with fake breasts the size of a dairy farm.
00:29:36.760
He decided to exploit the identity politics grift to the point of absurdity.
00:29:54.940
Why are you dressing inappropriately in front of children?
00:30:00.600
But Lemieux, I thought you told the world via the New York Post and the Toronto Sun
00:30:10.840
Kayla had said those breasts magically grew organically.
01:01:38.260
where the government provides some or all of the
01:01:40.860
outlet's funding and may have varying degrees of
01:01:47.600
Twitter's platform use guidelines refer to a source
01:01:50.180
that describes the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation,
01:01:53.300
i.e. the CBC, as a publicly-funded broadcaster.
01:01:56.940
The CBC's 2021-2022 annual report disclosed that it
01:02:01.640
received almost $1.24 billion, the vast majority of its
01:02:07.060
funding, from the Canadian government, and he provides the
01:02:11.040
As a result, and in the interest of transparency, I believe
01:02:13.780
that Twitter should apply the government-funded media label
01:02:16.380
to the CBC's various news-related accounts, including, and he
01:02:21.380
tags them at CBC, at CBC News, and at CBC Alerts.
01:02:28.260
I love it, and I want to see what CBC will do, if indeed
01:02:33.780
labeled government-funded media, which it is, to the tune of
01:02:38.420
Because yesterday, Tamara, in the United States, Twitter
01:02:42.400
labeled NPR, National Public Radio, as government-funded media,
01:02:52.620
You're giving up audience of billions of eyeballs?
01:03:00.860
So I just wonder, what do you think, Tamara, if CBC, in the
01:03:06.060
days ahead, is indeed labeled government-funded media, are they
01:03:14.880
Yeah, I mean, I wonder if the CBC would be so offended by being
01:03:23.480
called out for what they really are, which is a state broadcaster.
01:03:27.820
And we should all, we should promote that all Canadians take what
01:03:30.960
they have to say and the way that they report and the spin that
01:03:33.800
they put on their editorial positions with a grain of salt.
01:03:37.780
That we should be aware that this is state-backed, state-funded, a large part
01:03:45.340
And that whatever the flavor of the day is for the government, whatever agenda
01:03:49.740
that they're trying to push through or policies or whatnot, are going to be
01:03:58.060
Media is there to speak truth to power, to report the facts, to investigate.
01:04:01.660
And as we've seen over the past several years, but primarily over the last three
01:04:06.760
years, and Rodney Palmer, who's a former CBC journalist, 20-plus years of
01:04:14.920
experience in investigative journalism, foreign missions, et cetera, he did a
01:04:21.340
It was approximately an hour long, and you can find it on their Rumble channel.
01:04:24.680
Highly recommend anyone who's questioning the merit of the mainstream media and
01:04:28.640
their journalists to go and give that a watch, because he dissects the difference
01:04:32.620
between news gathering, which is what a media outlet should do, and propaganda.
01:04:37.200
And he gives all the instances over the last three years where the CBC engaged in
01:04:42.840
blatant propaganda while they callously disregarded actual news gathering.
01:04:49.220
And he calls that really a traitor, that they have betrayed Canadians by being
01:04:59.700
propagandists, put by being propaganda pushers, and disregarding the facts and
01:05:09.080
So I would love to see the CBC accurately labeled for their propaganda on state
01:05:14.480
broadcasting, because they're clearly not an independent media source.
01:05:17.420
And in many instances, they need to be fact-checked, in my opinion.
01:05:22.380
Tamara, regretfully, I have to once again correct you at the beginning of your
01:05:28.380
You said when it comes to CBC propaganda, you must take it with a grain of salt.
01:05:36.660
A grain is not nearly enough salt when it comes to CBC propaganda.
01:05:46.960
So before we leave you here this afternoon, we have a couple Super Chats.
01:05:58.860
This is what makes me so, you know, outraged, Tamara, over the Bud Light boycott campaign,
01:06:07.660
is that I was already boycotting it, not for transgender cans and pronoun cans, but because,
01:06:16.260
well, I would call Bud Light horse piss, but I really don't offend the equestrian community.
01:06:25.660
Now with the explosion of cottage brewers, and don't get me wrong, there are major brewers
01:06:34.940
But there, you know, Bud and Bud Light, it's all about marketing.
01:06:42.980
So I was already boycotting that product based on the quality of the product, Tamara.
01:06:49.420
So that's why I couldn't get on board with the boycott.
01:07:01.060
Sorry if I probably completely butchered that, but they give $5.
01:07:05.200
I would not allow my child to attend this school.
01:07:08.800
I'm assuming that you're referring to the Holton District School Board, specifically Oakville
01:07:13.500
Trafalgar, which is where Busty was a former employee.
01:07:25.300
Yeah, I think a lot of people echo those sentiments.
01:07:27.820
And interestingly, if you do pull your child from the school board, I can't remember what it
01:07:32.400
is offhand, but I think it's approximately each school board or each student gets approximately
01:07:43.220
So when you start pulling your children out of school and you make your voice known and
01:07:47.020
you make your reasoning, your rationale known to the school board why you're doing this,
01:07:58.340
So it could have changed slightly, but that's approximate here in Ontario, what each individual
01:08:06.560
So I am a big advocate for money talks, but sadly, we don't have school choice or charter
01:08:13.120
schools like they do, for instance, in Alberta, where that money could then follow the student,
01:08:18.060
your child, wherever you would choose to educate them.
01:08:21.220
Um, so it's just like banished, gone into thin air.
01:08:27.200
I guess back into the pockets of the bureaucrats, not to you, the parent who still has to pay,
01:08:32.380
presumably out of pocket for some form of education for your child.
01:08:36.880
So, um, I think that there's room there for maybe some sort of reform on how the education
01:08:44.180
funding works in our province and maybe take it from a model that's similar to how Alberta
01:08:49.200
goes about it, but, um, you know, that's a, a topic maybe for another day.
01:08:53.700
Um, but yeah, I think that, that, that sentiment that people should pull their children and really
01:08:58.500
exercise their democratic voice, follow the money, money talks.
01:09:03.740
I am a hundred percent on board with you and the viewer, uh, Tamara.
01:09:07.540
Um, just imagine we roll back the clock to September, the beginning of the school year,
01:09:13.220
and this, uh, crazy Busty Lemieux story gets getting, it keeps getting international publicity.
01:09:19.240
Oakville Trafalgar, which I understand is a good school in normal times, um, becomes the
01:09:26.840
Just imagine all the parents pull their kids and teachers show up to the next school day
01:09:36.640
How long would the Halton district school board tolerate that?
01:09:40.060
But you know what, they are such woke joke idiots at that board, Tamara.
01:09:45.180
I wouldn't be surprised if they'd say, well, we're still standing behind Kayla Lemieux in
01:09:50.300
the name of diversity, even though, uh, the school is now resembling a haunted house, or
01:09:58.700
And by, by doing the right thing at the very least implement a dress code, which Canada's
01:10:06.000
top labor lawyers say, you can do even in a heavily unionized environment, but no, they
01:10:16.500
Um, and that leads to the other part of your statement, um, time for the ministry of education
01:10:21.700
to dismantle the school board, which is in their power.
01:10:26.560
But again, Stephen Lecce, he is the education minister of a toothless tiger professional
01:10:36.020
Uh, David, thank you for elaborating your insights there.
01:10:46.300
The world, you see folks, the world revolves around Tamara Ugolini.
01:10:53.040
I'm just teasing, you know, I, I, I know you got a very important interview to coming
01:11:00.860
And, um, our thanks again to, uh, Efren, our super producer.
01:11:05.620
And thank you to everybody that tuned in, especially those of you who are so generous to give a
01:11:11.600
I'll be back in this seat tomorrow at one o'clock Eastern.
