00:00:00.000
Hey there, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our daily roundup from Rebel News.
00:00:17.840
Of course, I'm Sid Vizar with Rebel News, Adam Sos joining me, both Albertans on the
00:00:22.460
And today we're looking at the opposition conservatives.
00:00:27.680
But also, I want to remind you that if we're going to be watching these live streams and
00:00:31.780
promoting them, the best way for you to support us is to do that through Rumble.
00:00:35.120
And Adam, maybe you want to join me now and tell me a little bit about Rumble and how's
00:00:42.840
On election night, this is no longer one of our election issues, but I think over 200,
00:00:47.220
I think it's closing on 210,000 people watched our live stream on Rumble.
00:00:51.960
I believe the CEO of Rumble was even on board there.
00:00:57.720
It is a platform that is all about free speech.
00:01:02.140
They're just saying, listen, it's what YouTube used to be.
00:01:04.160
It's a platform for you to share your ideas, not fear censorship.
00:01:08.080
Obviously, they've got some limits on that, but they're not trying to push ideologies.
00:01:12.400
They're trying to create an open and honest platform where people can create.
00:01:15.860
So if you're joining us on YouTube, that's completely fine, but be one of the 200,000
00:01:20.460
or so who swapped over are supporting a free speech outlet like Rumble.
00:01:27.760
I even find if you're trying to look back on one of our old videos, if you try and search
00:01:32.260
it, even if I'm writing or linking back to an old story, I can't find it on YouTube.
00:01:36.800
The search, it's definitely being sort of suppressed or shadow ban or whatever you want
00:01:42.900
So if there's a topic you're interested in, really strong search engine.
00:01:53.720
Well, and for today's news, we're going to be looking at the opposition conservatives going
00:02:00.100
And there's also a lot of stuff going on in relation to carbon investments, energy investments.
00:02:06.320
There was some talk earlier about some of the solar energy stuff.
00:02:10.740
Adam, is there anything in specific you wanted to highlight before we get into the stories?
00:02:19.140
I did want to mention, though, on this Calgary front, for folks who are in the area, there's
00:02:26.060
And it's from our friends over at Canadians for Truth.
00:02:31.880
It's going to be at the Grey Eagle Event Center for folks who haven't been out to one of
00:02:39.820
So number 14 for the Flames, Olympian Stanley Cup champion, a real icon.
00:02:47.360
So they do this sort of, it's almost like a talk show.
00:02:53.360
And it's really, they have conversations that you just would not see at a conventional
00:03:03.180
Given that this one's at a casino, it may not be all ages.
00:03:11.600
And if you do decide to show up, well, you're also going to get to meet a bunch of us because
00:03:16.840
And then you're also going to have some of our other Rebels on location checking it out
00:03:23.420
Well, and I saw you at the last one with those two individuals and Tamara Leach.
00:03:29.280
And it looks like a lot of fun to be at those events.
00:03:33.820
And it's a bit of a flashback to the like, if you were at all remotely around any of the
00:03:39.440
Freedom Convoy stuff or in Coots, Milk River, Ottawa, whatever, you're going to see a lot
00:03:47.900
Well, our first story of the day, an opinion story, we can pull that up now about the Alberta
00:03:53.880
And they won a large deal, a $4.4 billion endorsement from Texas energy giant ConocoPhillips.
00:04:06.080
Well, you know, like, obviously, this was in the works prior to Daniel Smith being elected.
00:04:13.800
But I don't think the timing is a coincidence that it just happens to drop just after the
00:04:21.840
My suspicion is they probably would have had a way out if the NDP was elected.
00:04:26.180
But it's interesting because ConocoPhillips left when the NDP was last elected.
00:04:30.600
And now we've got this sort of firm re-election mandate for the UCP party.
00:04:36.000
And like Daniel Smith said, Alberta is open for business.
00:04:38.700
So this is all the sort of rhetoric from the NDP and from pundits and even from some of
00:04:45.140
the old guard conservatives who were criticizing Daniel Smith about how, oh, she's going to
00:04:51.000
Well, this is just the first of two massive deals a couple of days.
00:04:56.740
But it's incredible the extent to which just a vote of confidence, knowing that the government
00:05:03.120
It's incredible to see how quickly that can confirm and finalize some of these deals.
00:05:10.040
Well, to say the least, and I certainly think that there's going to be a lot more stories
00:05:15.360
And it might not be in the moment this story will come out.
00:05:18.180
And it doesn't directly imply the fact that the UCP won and that stabilized the economic
00:05:24.200
situation these people, the investors would be walking into for the next four years.
00:05:28.080
I think that's a very important thing to note, but it's not going to be highlighted.
00:05:32.160
And we see, again, there's that deal for the oil sands.
00:05:36.080
There's also another deal coming in, which is actually our next headline, a Greek company
00:05:40.700
to spearhead $1.7 billion solar energy product in Alberta.
00:05:46.900
Now, Adam, I have conflicting feelings about this one.
00:05:50.680
In one hand, there's this and the other investment, 4.4 plus 1.78 billion.
00:05:58.520
But at the same time, how secure is this kind of investment, do you think, an investment
00:06:06.360
Well, you know, solar is getting to, it's not there yet, but it's getting there.
00:06:11.440
And eventually, we probably, like, eventually, it's getting to the point where maybe if the
00:06:16.240
government isn't trying to tax you for the power you pull off, throwing a solar panel on
00:06:20.960
It's kind of like a Tesla, where it's like on the brink of affordable and starting to
00:06:28.700
But I think that this is yet another sort of testimony to Danielle Smith's open to business
00:06:35.500
mentality, where she talked about, and I know for lots of people, it was tough, because
00:06:39.860
I don't agree with her sort of feeding into the net zero rhetoric.
00:06:43.160
But when she does talk about net zero, she talks about selling it.
00:06:48.900
So she's talking about selling carbon offsets, selling carbon removal, bringing in renewable
00:06:55.360
So she's never going to do this, I hope, anyways.
00:06:57.640
And based on what she said, she's not going to do this like the Trudeau liberals do, where
00:07:01.020
they punish people, they punish businesses, they tax you.
00:07:04.560
What they're going to do is, yeah, sure, bring in investments.
00:07:06.740
Let's negate some of that carbon impact, which, frankly, I don't believe it or care, the
00:07:12.860
But regardless, if you can make money off of it, if someone wants to buy it, and you
00:07:16.300
are producing energy, there's not much harm in it, I think.
00:07:20.360
And listen, if Alberta were magically, completely renewable in 50 years, and then we could sell
00:07:26.900
our ethical oil overseas to places with human rights violations that have children working
00:07:33.240
It's never, it should never be about negating our natural resources.
00:07:37.000
But I get people's apprehension, like solar panels.
00:07:45.560
And I think this goes a long way to negating critics of Danielle Smith, who might say, oh,
00:07:54.060
It's like, well, I didn't see massive solar investments of $1.7 billion prior to Danielle
00:08:00.460
Clearly, there's some solar farms, but generally, they're government funded.
00:08:03.100
This is a private company coming in and making a massive investment in solar farms.
00:08:07.000
Even if you're an environmentalist on that front, obviously, most of these people aren't
00:08:11.540
impartial, and they can't objectively be like, oh, Danielle Smith did a good thing.
00:08:19.180
And at least subconsciously, these people have to start thinking like, oh, well, I guess
00:08:25.460
Well, we're going to have to have a more in-depth conversation about renewable at a
00:08:30.700
But in a sense, it is good to have a diverse set of assets, and I kind of agree to some
00:08:38.180
And it is interesting, though, to see, especially with the changes that are happening in the
00:08:43.100
energy industry right now, Alberta is probably going to be a focal point regardless of what
00:08:48.100
we're investing in simply because of the resources we have.
00:08:51.260
So it is, I think, always good to capitalize on that.
00:08:54.080
Then the one concern I guess I would propose is with the expansion of solar and wind energy
00:09:00.240
farms, how much would that affect our urban and rural Albertans?
00:09:06.340
That's the one question I would have to see moving forward.
00:09:14.400
Back to another point, and then I'll sort of carry on.
00:09:17.440
The NDP spent so much time talking about diversifying, but what they meant was getting
00:09:23.920
So I think opening the opportunities to everything, well, that's great.
00:09:27.100
But listen, really the only sort of environmental options, it's nuclear.
00:09:34.380
Like the amount of birds that die when you have wind turbines is astronomical.
00:09:38.060
It makes Tillings ponds look like a bird swimming pond.
00:09:41.900
You can just walk by the mills and there's birds.
00:09:46.080
Apparently, you can also mess with migratory patterns.
00:09:50.780
And I mean, I don't know if these are bonafide, but I've heard repeated reports that migraines,
00:09:56.440
increased cancer risks, things like that associated with these turbines.
00:10:01.040
When you look at a solar farm, you're also talking about completely clear cutting an area
00:10:17.160
If you're going to dam an area off to make a hydro dam, people will be upset about that.
00:10:22.120
Because of Chernobyl and some of the other nuclear accidents, people are apprehensive about
00:10:28.220
That's probably, especially with Canada, we have so much space, one of the more feasible
00:10:31.700
But it seems like no matter what the option is, they don't want to go there.
00:10:34.800
And they ultimately just settle on what the politicians' friends have businesses in, which
00:10:45.560
This is going to be happening one way or another.
00:10:48.040
And I think if it's not happening in Alberta, it'll happen somewhere else.
00:10:51.820
And I don't view it as an innate evil, but it's not the solar panels aren't this perfect
00:10:57.000
solution that environmentalists paint them out to be.
00:11:02.680
Well, and bringing me into my next story, before I touch on it, I just want to say, as long
00:11:07.180
as we don't start investing in tidal energy, like they have in the East Coast.
00:11:12.040
But our next story, a little closer to home, of course, personally, as well, a lot of people
00:11:18.860
And we have a story, looting will be punished, warns First Nation chief after wildfire evacuation
00:11:27.360
Adam, I mean, you've probably seen a lot more of this than I have, obviously.
00:11:34.680
Well, you know, I actually love the image people get out there of First Nations communities.
00:11:42.300
I think they're actually far more conservative than folks would think.
00:11:46.740
We've obviously had the opportunity to go out and we did the repair of the church job
00:11:52.020
where we replaced the roof and did some work on a church to help that community.
00:11:57.640
When the city was cancelling fireworks, which has been reverted, thanks Dan McLean, but when
00:12:03.460
the city was planning to do that, I called a bunch of the First Nations communities around
00:12:08.000
Calgary and they were all having Canada Day fireworks shows.
00:12:11.800
Now, this, it's incredible to see when you go down, I've had the opportunity through reporting
00:12:17.220
and through some of this work we've done, spent a lot of time on some of the reservations
00:12:20.740
around Calgary and some of the signs they have about like respecting your elders and like
00:12:26.960
saying no to drug culture, which is going to transition into something we're going to talk
00:12:30.860
But they're sort of espousing lots of values that conservatives probably would within society.
00:12:39.380
No, but it's really good to see this sort of firm stance against and protecting the community.
00:12:48.380
When we were doing the work on the church, I remember sometimes I'd go to sort of check
00:12:51.820
on something, make sure everything was underway or like a roof supplies had delivered when
00:12:58.500
And it was incredible how fast like the Tsutena police would come because everyone was burning
00:13:03.940
churches across the country and there's a white guy hanging around the church.
00:13:06.620
So the police would be there so quickly to protect and preserve their community.
00:13:10.700
And I think this chief coming out and saying basically you're going to be banished if you
00:13:14.340
loot on our property while we're escaping these fires.
00:13:19.040
People are escaping their homes, often forced to leave animals behind, suffering.
00:13:23.680
It harkens back to the high river gun grabs during the floods.
00:13:26.640
But to victimize people when they're in the worst possible situation, I love seeing a
00:13:33.060
We're not going to tolerate this in the slightest, protecting their communities.
00:13:39.820
Well, and speaking of communities that often you hear about, there's the next story that
00:13:59.160
And I believe the quote is, for many in Alberta's 2PL community, I'm not going to say it again,
00:14:12.520
We see you, we love you, and we're here for you, and we don't ever stop fighting for you.
00:14:21.480
And it is absolutely an honor to be here on Treaty 6 territory with one of our newest elected
00:14:26.840
MLGays, future MLA for Edmonton West Henday, Brooks Arkan Paul.
00:14:41.500
And I'm so fortunate to be joining our wonderful MLGay.
00:14:46.340
I'm your MLGay elect, and we're really looking forward to making sure that representation happens
00:14:52.280
We will hold the government to account, and we will remember that pride has always been
00:14:58.360
Every single community is going to be represented by our team, and we're going to make sure that
00:15:07.520
Thank you so much to everyone for placing your trust in our team, for continuing to fight
00:15:12.780
for every single Albertan, but especially the 2SLGBTQ plus community.
00:15:18.220
And we know that so many of you are hurting, so many of you have reached out to us, and
00:15:23.220
we just need you to know we're here for you, we see you, you matter, and we love you.
00:15:28.960
And so from Rachel, from Brooks, from our entire Alberta NDP team, happy Pride Month.
00:15:40.720
I was hoping, like I get during a campaign, even you saw during the leadership race, you
00:15:46.160
saw Schultz and Gene and Sonny and Smith like flinging mud at each other, and then like
00:15:52.060
Daniel wins and everyone gets on with their lives, and then they get back to business.
00:15:55.980
I was hoping, I'm the optimist, I know, and I should stop being so optimistic, but I was
00:16:01.080
hoping once the election was over, sure the election's over, but let's move on, and let's
00:16:09.080
Gondek, and I think we've got an article about that as well, we can pull it up, but not necessary.
00:16:14.360
Gondek saying, oh, congratulations, but like I've got some concerns about hate.
00:16:18.320
Like, Daniel Smith is a progressive politician.
00:16:23.680
She, like, I don't, I'm very socially conservative, so I don't agree with her on a lot of that.
00:16:28.160
The reason that I'm not entirely upset with her is because she's libertarian.
00:16:31.080
So she wants people to be able to do what they want.
00:16:35.080
If you're ultra conservative, you can go be ultra conservative.
00:16:39.320
Government shouldn't be mandating every aspect of your life like this.
00:16:43.840
Any suggestion, though, that Daniel Smith is, she's very on board with all this stuff.
00:16:49.100
I remember at an Alberta Prosperity Project event, someone asked her about men, like trans
00:16:54.840
women, men, I don't know, whatever you want to call it, competing in women's sports.
00:16:57.960
And she was, like, not willing to say that she's against it, which to most people is a
00:17:04.920
So she can be about as big a quote unquote ally as you can imagine.
00:17:08.960
And they'll still just ramp up this rhetoric about how she is a villain.
00:17:13.680
It's wild to see this because she is not at all.
00:17:23.320
And she is an ally to the pride movement in general.
00:17:27.860
Now, maybe not the extreme outliers and the political activism and everything.
00:17:31.480
But personally, I know she's very libertarian and very in favor of all that.
00:17:40.060
And the other thing, too, I mean, the whole ML gay thing, whatever, it's fine.
00:17:44.860
Janice, I disagree with her probably on everything.
00:17:51.880
But it's just so bizarre to have, like, I'm not like I'm a journa straight.
00:18:15.840
Well, I think it has roots in the hijacking of homosexuals and lesbians and people who are actually being punished in a time for simply who they were.
00:18:30.000
And there's all these horrible stories about children that are going into facilities and getting, you know, basically mutilating themselves or having adults convince them that they need to be mutilated in order to live a normal life.
00:18:43.140
There's, you know, gay people, lesbians, you know, bisexuals.
00:18:47.260
But at the same time, that's not something that you can use as a veil for the mutilation of children.
00:18:55.100
And a lot of people within those communities are saying, look, we're not here for the maps, you know, minor attracted person stuff and things like that.
00:19:03.000
There's a hard line that's being formed between the stuff that's, you know, you could say a little too far and the stuff that, you know, 20, 30 years ago nobody would have considered or looked at or had any problem with.
00:19:22.980
And it's interesting how directly it tackles this.
00:19:25.060
And one of the lines that you almost paraphrased there is like this stuff like 10 years, lots of this stuff.
00:19:30.040
And they're referring to like euthanasia and a number of other things.
00:19:32.180
But lots of this stuff would have landed you in jail 10 years ago.
00:19:35.020
Now you're a bigot if you express any concern whatsoever on those fronts.
00:19:40.060
It is also bizarre, I find, to have so much of your identity be exclusively tied up in your sexuality.
00:19:49.600
I just, like, I'm a straight person, but I don't think I've ever mentioned that on stream.
00:19:54.320
Nor do I have straight tagged next to my name on Twitter.
00:19:59.320
The fact that sexuality has become an entire identity, rather than you're a person who happens to have a sexuality.
00:20:08.660
It's very, like, almost, like, childish and delayed adolescence, where when you're a kid, you, like, sort of identify with something.
00:20:16.260
And you go all out, and that's your whole identity, whether it be, like, sports or something else.
00:20:19.840
But it's bizarre to see some people where it's like their sexuality is the entire crux of that.
00:20:37.100
I don't identify as a, you know, a pansexual furry.
00:20:40.540
That's not in the resume, because that's not going to get me anywhere in life.
00:20:45.740
You know, I guess there's, you know, as we know, there are people out there who would choose that path.
00:20:50.120
But it's for society to have a mass of people, a generation of people believe that they should be indoctrinating themselves into these, you know, sexual livelihoods.
00:21:05.120
But with that said, perhaps we should jump to an ad break.
00:21:09.420
We've got an ad coming up now, I believe, about this incredible student journalism conference.
00:21:13.840
Some of our incredible young talent has actually come from this.
00:21:16.260
So if you know someone who's a young, aspiring journalist, this not only is an opportunity to learn a lot, but it often can transition into either an internship or being part of our team in the long term.
00:21:27.940
I know everybody that I've heard from that goes to this event as an absolutely incredible time.
00:21:32.920
And you get to, like, meet with some of our top talent.
00:21:42.380
But, I mean, if you're at all interested in this, it's a no-brainer to go out to this.
00:22:41.120
Often, lots of people who are winning are, like, most popular journalists.
00:22:44.520
Derek Philbrandt and a massive team are going to be there.
00:22:47.340
So I don't think you can get a better experience.
00:22:49.300
And almost all these people have experienced, like, sort of the extreme on the ground, whether it be at the trucker convoy or overseas, attending protests, whatever it may be.
00:23:01.900
So if you know someone starting to think about a career, thinking about maybe doing journalism, well, this is definitely the opportunity, the place to learn something, get some hands-on experience, and maybe eventually work with us one of these days.
00:23:14.420
And next, I should say, we're jumping into a bit of a conservative lineup, Pierre Polyev.
00:23:24.760
I have yet to get it just right, Pierre Polyev.
00:23:30.260
Now, recently, you've probably heard about the guy who was trying to sell meth, heroin, cocaine on the streets.
00:23:37.280
He had, like, a little booth, and they shut him down.
00:23:43.260
In 2012, BC overdose deaths were 270, what is it, 2022, and, yeah, pardon me, 2012 was 270 deaths, and 2022 was 2,272.
00:23:59.640
So you could say that's a bit of a spike, Adam.
00:24:03.580
Yeah, you know, it's – and these people who advocate for this harm reduction nonsense, it doesn't work.
00:24:09.720
I've had the opportunity, the Alberta model is tackling this in the exact opposite direction.
00:24:14.160
Mike Ellis, Nicholas Milliken, Daniel Smith gave that incredible event.
00:24:18.820
I urge people, if they haven't seen that report, go check it out.
00:24:21.800
But they are damning people to what Mike Ellis referred to as palliative addiction.
00:24:31.560
And what they'll do is they'll say, oh, well, we've seen a reduction in, like, deaths,
00:24:37.100
and whether it be, like, hep being spread or overdoses or whatever,
00:24:42.060
they've seen a reduction in the percentage of deaths.
00:24:45.020
But what happens is you have way more people doing drugs.
00:24:48.260
And when you look at these facts, over the course of 10 years,
00:24:51.580
BC brought in this sort of harm reduction, safe drug site access stuff.
00:24:55.980
We're talking about going from 270 to 2,272 deaths in 10 years.
00:25:02.300
I absolutely think that this was one of the key issues for many people during the election.
00:25:10.200
No one would, to someone they love, damn them to a life of perpetual drug use and suffering.
00:25:20.340
But sometimes you have to take people, remove them from an environment,
00:25:23.720
even if at the time, and we talked to lots of people in that video,
00:25:28.600
But afterwards, they're just overwhelmed with emotion, bawling,
00:25:31.840
because their lives were saved by initiatives that remove people from those environments.
00:25:37.040
This is absolutely heartbreaking to see that many deaths,
00:25:43.000
And frankly, these progressive lovey-dovey people who pretend that they care about everything,
00:25:47.800
and they'll fly their rainbow flags, and everything is wonderful.
00:25:53.340
Because ultimately what happens is businesses flee the provinces,
00:25:57.440
and people are left in despair, and they're struggling,
00:26:05.300
It's almost like a Jonathan Swift-level modest proposal,
00:26:08.440
where we're like, we'll just give opiates to the masses and reduce them to nothing.
00:26:14.800
It's not in line with the dignity of human persons, whatever your background may be.
00:26:21.880
I, for one, am so happy to see Pierre Polyever,
00:26:24.120
as well as some other provinces, nominally Daniel Smith and the Conservatives here in Alberta,
00:26:36.620
And all the talking points aside, and all this talk of, oh, fear of hate.
00:26:40.860
Well, I can tell you that giving people free drugs has nothing to do with love.
00:26:45.120
But what they're trying to do now, these opportunities to save people's lives, is incredible.
00:26:50.580
I talked to Chief Roy Whitney at that event, and he said that he lost his son,
00:26:56.600
But it was because of a long, treacherous path of drugs and addiction and despair.
00:27:01.700
And he, among many other people, have shared that if they had the opportunity
00:27:05.300
to get an injunction and to stop this, rather than providing free drugs to kids,
00:27:12.880
And so many people we talked to there, whether they were saved or it was too late
00:27:19.440
the people who experience this firsthand can tell you that we need to move towards
00:27:29.520
It's becoming a larger issue in Canada by the day.
00:27:33.160
Even in, well, I know there was the situation where there were, like,
00:27:36.920
crack pipes and stuff that were handed out at a school in BC.
00:27:43.020
Toronto now handing out branded crack and meth pipe kits with Citi's logo.
00:27:51.240
And it is a shame in a sense because, well, certainly in more than one sense.
00:27:55.940
But they're solving, the government is attempting to make the problem more easy
00:28:02.040
to deal with for these people that are in these situations.
00:28:05.300
They're not looking to solve the problem of people getting into these situations,
00:28:09.700
And they just, at the end of the day, they're facilitating drug addiction.
00:28:17.020
They're facilitating these behaviors under that same banner, as we heard before.
00:28:26.180
Now, I don't know if I would advocate for the government to, you know,
00:28:29.080
physically take anybody and put them into certain situations whatsoever.
00:28:33.000
However, I do think that perhaps they could play a role in advocating and promoting
00:28:37.660
friends and family of these individuals to show their support and their advocacy
00:28:42.440
to help get their friends and families out of these tough situations.
00:28:50.700
And so how this would work, there already are interventions like this,
00:28:55.500
So you'd actually, it would be like a family member or a police officer
00:28:58.500
or someone who's viewing someone who's basically imminently going to die.
00:29:01.900
And then they would appeal through a quick, it's like a hastened judicial process
00:29:08.100
So it's not just sort of random rounding people up and sticking them in camps to like,
00:29:12.660
though the government would do that with the unvaccinated.
00:29:14.840
But it's an intention to get help for these people from their sort of support groups,
00:29:22.960
And the thing that goes hand in hand with this is the sort of rampant crime.
00:29:29.720
but I think it was like something like someone who gets arrested for a violent crime
00:29:34.720
has an average of like 11 prior arrests for violent crimes.
00:29:38.360
So what you have is people, they're going to jail,
00:29:41.060
they're getting released with like 50 bucks cash bail or no cash bail.
00:29:44.320
And then they're going to one of these free drug sites, getting drugs,
00:29:48.200
freaking out on drugs and going and committing a violent crime.
00:29:54.980
especially if they're minors and they're throwing their lives away,
00:29:57.800
for them to be able to intercede and provide some help and support.
00:30:00.760
The people that I talked to firsthand who have turned their lives around,
00:30:03.260
some of them are now helping with this recovery process.
00:30:06.220
Well, they testify that at the time they were pushing back,
00:30:09.580
but after the fact, they were so grateful for what happened.
00:30:12.880
Another thing I wanted to touch on, and this does,
00:30:18.800
A 14-year-old is dead because Trudeau floods streets with Dillys,
00:30:26.020
Trudeau gives Dillys to addicts who sell them to children for a dollar.
00:30:29.660
Allen, this madness, invest in treatment and bring loved ones home drug-free.
00:30:41.400
He saw firsthand that they could get their hands on supplies
00:30:46.320
and they could actually sell, I'm paraphrasing here,
00:30:53.540
So they'd actually be selling the safe drugs into school for more
00:30:57.240
and then buying cheap, bad drugs themselves anyways.
00:31:00.900
So all you see is a net increase in the amount of drugs that are out there.
00:31:10.480
This isn't like, don't get me wrong, we talk about economics,
00:31:13.360
you're talking about people's livelihoods and everything.
00:31:15.440
But this, every day we continue down this madness,
00:31:19.480
And we're talking about increasing from the hundreds to the thousands.
00:31:22.780
Imagine if this was implemented right across the board.
00:31:25.280
Just think, they're handing out Toronto, City of Toronto,
00:31:34.080
No, it's really hard to kind of get to grasp with in a sense
00:31:44.060
I mean, let alone the fact that, I mean, between crack and cocaine,
00:31:47.620
I mean, crack, that's what you're going to, as a city staple,
00:31:51.180
you're going to go with the lower tier option in a sense.
00:31:53.740
But really, at the end of the day, what are they doing to go after the dealers?
00:31:57.400
What are they doing to go after the people who are creating drugs like, well,
00:32:06.080
Is Trudeau doing anything to stop this from either coming into the country
00:32:25.780
Yeah, they were making the stickers for all the COVID warning stuff
00:32:31.040
for all the trains, so they gave themselves a contract.
00:32:33.380
I would love to see who's making all these crack pipes
00:32:35.620
and how lucrative the contract is, because it always seems,
00:32:40.400
but it always seems like some friend of a politician
00:32:43.540
or someone connected through their little cottage industry meetings
00:32:46.840
suddenly is like, yeah, I could do a million crack pipes for you.
00:32:52.180
And then they make this sort of behind closed doors deals.
00:32:55.080
But like, just a little bit more broadly speaking,
00:32:58.980
and then we'll jump to an ad break here though.
00:33:01.500
And I asked Dan McLean this the other day on stream as well,
00:33:04.440
but why do you think it is that this sort of progressive,
00:33:10.360
prevailing, very often sort of WEF-oriented mindset
00:33:17.700
Like it's like, oh, we're going to ban fireworks.
00:33:24.020
Is it monkey see, monkey do is a little bit more insidious than that.
00:33:27.920
You can literally look at if Toronto does something,
00:33:31.260
Calgary and Vancouver will follow, Edmonton will follow.
00:33:37.660
Are they having secret meetings and deciding these absurd things
00:33:44.740
I think perhaps, you know, it's a lot easier to lose sight of God when you're in a city
00:33:48.740
because you're always surrounded by distractions.
00:33:51.920
And you consider contrast that to, you know, let's say someone who's living on a farm.
00:34:01.000
You know, if you live in a city, you're probably not going to observe that sort of thing as well.
00:34:04.580
And that goes for everything in their surroundings is they're more in tune with the world they actually live in
00:34:10.000
instead of perhaps somebody in a city who might be distracted every day by advertisements on the bus
00:34:17.100
Every single second, there's something to distract.
00:34:20.220
But on the previous note, we were talking about some of the stuff that was being handed out in Toronto.
00:34:24.800
I just want to say rest in peace to the greatest mayor we ever had in Toronto.
00:34:28.100
And with that, perhaps we should go to an advert.
00:34:33.980
The media said that Canadian truckers were Russian agents controlled by Vladimir Putin.
00:34:47.100
We are here out of love for our families, our communities.
00:34:51.520
And the government put the country under martial law to stop them.
00:34:57.400
If you can't see the future in clear outline right now, you're not paying attention.
00:35:06.860
For the first time, the woman at the heart of the trucker convoy speaks out.
00:35:11.320
Tamara Leach, passionate organizer, loving mother and grandmother, proud Métis and proud Albertan,
00:35:17.380
and defiant political prisoner jailed for daring to criticize the government.
00:35:33.720
My story from the heart of the Freedom Convoy is the inside scoop of what really happened.
00:35:39.440
You've heard from the media and the convoy's critics.
00:35:42.540
Now hear the truth from the woman who inspired the world and made Justin Trudeau blink.
00:35:48.140
Visit theconvoybook.com to order your copy now.
00:35:52.760
I would definitely recommend getting that book.
00:36:09.980
I meant to order it like right away as soon as it came out.
00:36:16.380
And I did get the chance to go to the, as I mentioned, Canadians for Truth event where Tamara Leach was there when she was sort of talking about it originally.
00:36:23.380
So I got to take a little bit of a peek through it, but I'm looking forward to reading it for sure.
00:36:29.760
You know, the thing about her is she didn't, she's not an activist.
00:36:36.160
If you have maybe, if you're not too sure about Tamara Leach, if you don't know her story, I'm sure probably if you're watching, you've got a pretty good idea.
00:36:42.360
But just to learn how she's so humble and modest and sweet.
00:36:46.760
And whenever she sees somebody, her eyes well up with tears because she's just such a loving person.
00:36:51.740
She was pushed into this role as sort of a hero of the Freedom Convoy.
00:36:58.240
It's not one that she rushed into, but that's what the heroes are really.
00:37:02.440
Someone who takes up the mantle at those difficult times, even a mantle you don't necessarily want in order to stand up for something.
00:37:14.380
Just to have that at the top of those lists, it sends a message about where Canadians stand on these issues.
00:37:22.100
Well, and it's better to have it and not want to read it than not being able to have it and want to read it.
00:37:26.560
Because, as you know, censorship of all kinds is coming for us.
00:37:29.760
And in our next story, Pablo Rodriguez brings us a story about the fact that Facebook is still refusing to work with Canadians to show how deeply irresponsible and out of touch they are.
00:37:43.060
Once again, this is a disappointing move from big tech.
00:37:45.640
And Canadians will not be intimidated by these tactics.
00:37:53.980
I mean, I'm sort of of two minds on this because I basically want companies to be free.
00:38:05.180
I don't want them to be subject to the CRTC because it can cause significant problems.
00:38:11.960
You look at Netflix, Paramount, all these other providers.
00:38:15.800
And this isn't Facebook specific now, but just generally speaking.
00:38:19.400
And you get an entirely different perspective than what the rest of the world is seeing.
00:38:30.320
So critical content, information, you're getting a limited version of that.
00:38:37.680
But the federal government and the CRTC, so much of what they're doing, it suppresses and controls.
00:38:46.760
And Justin Trudeau and the liberals, they want to be able to control what news gets to the top.
00:38:52.620
Big tech, YouTube, other companies, Facebook, they're doing this already, controlling, stifling, limiting what we're seeing.
00:39:03.000
So I don't know what – and you can talk about Facebook specifically, but I think you can also talk about this in terms of all big tech.
00:39:12.820
Well, and just before I say something, I want to add that in that message we put on screen earlier, it says,
00:39:18.560
I'm told Facebook is announcing tomorrow it will block all news for 5% of Canada starting Monday.
00:39:24.580
When Facebook ran this play in Australia, it was a global intimidation playbook.
00:39:31.060
And then also, yeah, there's Facebook and there's other websites and stuff like that, such as Twitter.
00:39:38.600
Obviously, Elon Musk recently purchased Twitter and has taken a stance advocating towards freedoms and such.
00:39:45.000
And we saw yesterday the Daily Wire tried to publish the What is a Woman documentary produced by them and Matt Walsh in full on Twitter.
00:39:55.840
And they had this weird banner on that tweet basically saying this reach was limited.
00:40:07.820
And it said point blank that we are censoring this content.
00:40:11.980
You still have the right to say it, but we have the right to tell you – or not to tell you, but we have a right to show it to however many people we deem to show it to.
00:40:18.520
So it's just more of – the language is evolving in the debate for freedom, but the stances are the same.
00:40:25.180
They're still restricting freedom in that sense.
00:40:26.860
Elon Musk was able to, I guess, modify that decision by today.
00:40:32.700
So it is – I believe the label has now been removed.
00:40:35.800
But regardless, these hurdles are still existent within these companies.
00:40:39.520
And he might be running it, but clearly it's not just him alone that's going to be operating and managing Twitter.
00:40:46.800
And as his team sound, well, what is his – his replacement is a WEF, a former WEF member or employed in the WEF.
00:41:01.160
You know, Elon does seem to be saying the right things at the moment.
00:41:08.480
You know, like he retweeted it and said you have to watch this.
00:41:13.860
So he definitely is a voice for rejecting the overt control and censorship and the government-mandated orientation.
00:41:25.060
So I think the fact that he's willing to say no or take a stand, I get it.
00:41:29.840
But you look at all these organizations, whether it be Target, whether it be Bud Light, whether it be Facebook, right across the board, the massive investment firms that are in this are all on board with this.
00:41:42.680
They're willing to lose money to push these narratives.
00:41:45.300
And at a certain point, I think the dollars speak louder than the principles for some of these people.
00:41:56.020
But the fact that he was willing to retweet that and the person who was basically blocking that stuff was shown the door, that's promising.
00:42:03.500
Listen, we had, I think, 90,000 viewers on our stream on YouTube and 210,000 on Rumble.
00:42:12.040
People need to put their money where their mouth is.
00:42:17.320
And if there's an outlet that is more free, is more open, we'll support those things.
00:42:26.760
And if there is another outlet or another social media app that is not willing to play these games, is willing to be free, well, then so be it.
00:42:33.880
Now, once the government starts interjecting and putting in laws, that makes that very difficult.
00:42:39.640
But I'm sure that the legal teams at some of these major corporations can find a way to say, oh, no, they're just accessing our American site.
00:42:47.600
But yeah, it's so clearly and obviously oriented towards controlling ideologies.
00:42:58.420
There's horrific content on Twitter that doesn't get censored.
00:43:05.560
When you're searching something utterly innocuous, it'll just pop up.
00:43:10.080
I know before Elon Musk took over, there was a massive problem with child abuse material that they could rather easily remove, but they had opted not to.
00:43:19.200
That's largely been addressed by now, or at least to some extent.
00:43:26.880
But so much of this is down to controlling alternative perspectives.
00:43:33.420
It's like some 1984, like we're going to censor opinions that aren't the approved opinions.
00:43:37.900
We're going to alienate marginalized and make it impossible to find sources.
00:43:41.600
But yeah, we need outlets that are outlets, whether it be social media, whether it be apps, that just reject that narrative.
00:43:48.740
It's very easy to turn on your TV election night and watch the CBC stream.
00:43:53.620
It might be one more step to go to rumble and hit cast towards your TV.
00:43:57.080
But every one of those actions is a vote, so to speak.
00:44:00.640
So if a platform is not willing to support free speech, don't support them.
00:44:05.080
Well, and on that note, we actually, I believe, have two videos that we can show now on this very topic.
00:44:11.080
And censorship of all kinds, whether it be through social media powerhouses, I guess you call them, or government.
00:44:19.220
I mean, we've seen Justin Trudeau in some of the bills he's passed recently.
00:44:22.320
I mean, not only are they actively trying to silence people, they're actively trying to prevent journalistic entities such as ourselves from publishing content and putting things out there that matter, things that they don't want people to know.
00:44:34.420
And that's the thing is oftentimes they'll say it's censored because X, Y, Z, such as the case for the Matt Walsh documentary on Twitter.
00:44:44.020
They'll censor it because it's harmful or transphobic or whatever.
00:44:47.440
But on the other side of that coin is the fact that it's actually very helpful.
00:44:52.240
It's actually enlightening for people who might be questioning or might be going through this reality where people are inundating them with the idea that they have to transition.
00:45:01.140
So in the same side of the coin where they can say it's harmful, other people can say it's harmful not to show.
00:45:06.940
So it's really a non-argument, but they'll play it anyways, and they'll call it, you know, their way is right, your way is wrong.
00:45:14.000
And how many people do you hear who they wish they would have heard the other side of the story?
00:45:21.900
And what you have is a sort of paternalization where they just they treat people like adults who want to transition, even like children.
00:45:40.380
It's a pushed agenda, and it's undeniable, really.
00:45:46.420
Now, again, as we saw, whether it be election night coverage, whatever it may be, people are starting to reject this.
00:45:54.080
And like I said, people are speaking with their dollars.
00:45:58.020
Target, Bud Light, all these companies losing millions, billions of dollars when they adopt these radical narratives.
00:46:03.520
Let's, if you don't mind, jump to this clip, though.
00:46:07.080
It's good to see the conservatives sort of growing a pair and tackling some of these issues head on.
00:46:13.700
I get sticking to business and trying to get things going.
00:46:16.780
But it's gotten so extreme that we need conservatives who are willing to actually stand up.
00:46:20.840
So let's play the clip of Pierre talking about big tech and censorship.
00:46:24.600
I mean, Justin Trudeau's total incompetence and his attempt to censor the Internet are now hurting our media outlets.
00:46:34.020
Now he's created a situation where big tech might end up censoring the same way that he does.
00:46:40.180
I don't believe that either big tech or big government should censor what people see and say online.
00:46:46.100
Conservatives are the only party that will protect Canadians against government and big tech censorship and allow everyone to express themselves freely.
00:46:57.740
That is, I'm sure there was backlash and people were angry, but that is the most self-evident.
00:47:04.300
They're going to make it one, but that is not a contentious opinion.
00:47:08.160
Obviously, like illegal content, the government censoring that, abuse material, whatever it may be, sure, wonderful.
00:47:15.700
They'll allow that stuff to go through, and then they'll censor things that maybe provide a different perspective or an opinion.
00:47:34.200
There's a Toronto hip-hop podcast, and they're just roasting Justin Trudeau.
00:47:44.180
It affects provincial politics with them kicking people out.
00:48:12.120
Yeah, I will follow some of it than to turn around and kick your butt.
00:48:17.520
So I'm not a Trudeau fan because I never voted in my life, guys.
00:48:28.440
So Trudeau is not doing his job to me because he ain't never made me feel like he in my household
00:48:38.960
So I can't have no opinion on if I'm, thank you for legalizing some marijuana, but in my
00:48:46.340
Yeah, that was the one thing that, you know, I guess he got some points for, like nationally
00:48:55.320
But then, like, when the pandemic hit, fam, like a lot of the stuff that this guy, like,
00:49:00.660
allowed and, like, he went up with, yeah, fam, he really, really turned people's stomach,
00:49:07.640
When he did the blackface in college, they've never let that go.
00:49:28.580
He turned it into, he got it, well, it's the law now.
00:49:30.900
I don't want to say nothing where he wants to come now shut us down, so.
00:49:37.320
Yo, he was on Brandon Golden as a show, so, you know, he's tapped in a little bit to
00:49:45.560
He needs the approval rating of all of us, fam.
00:49:50.980
And listen, I know, gang, this is not like no hip-hop.
00:50:13.480
And it's true, because, I mean, how many years has Trudeau been in office now?
00:50:22.740
I mean, Trudeau's at a point now where he's pissing off, you know, the Toronto hip-hop scene
00:50:29.280
Like, they were actually, Hutterites aren't allowed to protest, right?
00:50:33.120
And they were so dismayed with the situation that COVID brought that they were actually
00:50:37.680
out there demonstrating during the Freedom Convoy and stuff.
00:50:45.860
So, across the board, everybody's saying, you know, well, look, I'm done with Trudeau.
00:50:50.880
Enough scandals, you know, enough not helping people, enough fake smiles, enough blackface.
00:50:57.880
And the fact of the matter is, it's time for a leader, like that guy says, because Trudeau
00:51:02.220
And there was one, you know, correction, I would say, in that commentary was the fact
00:51:09.440
Is that why he was criticizing the unvaccinated, basically calling them swine, right?
00:51:14.560
He wants the votes that will maintain his position in power.
00:51:23.720
Yeah, you know, I mean, the whole, it goes back to what we talked about earlier.
00:51:28.500
The whole, like, inclusive left, it's not there.
00:51:32.580
These people who are so lovey-dovey and tolerant, well, they don't allow us into events.
00:51:37.140
They'll say, I know, right, Rachel Notley said, oh, we, if we would have won, we would
00:51:46.180
And it's good to see different communities starting to realize that.
00:51:51.240
When you have, like you said, and you hit the nail on the head there, Hunter Wrights and
00:51:55.020
the Toronto hip-hop scene rallying, maybe we'll see a feature track or something.
00:51:59.520
But when you see those communities rallying together in opposition, basically, we're at
00:52:03.780
the point now where you're looking at Eastern Canadians who will just always vote Trudeau
00:52:08.620
no matter what happens, even if the dude was caught killing a puppy, that's who's still
00:52:15.940
Let's go to one more ad break now, and then we've got a couple stories to hit up after
00:52:20.280
that, and then we'll do some chats if we have any and go from there.
00:52:23.780
Living with spike protein in a post-pandemic world is something we all have to grapple with,
00:52:28.120
whether you've had the virus, you've been vaccinated yourself, or if you're around those who were.

00:53:07.700
Adam, before we get to our next story, what do you make of that advertisement?
00:53:15.260
I've had the opportunity to speak to quite a few people, even whether it be naturopaths
00:53:21.680
or people with sort of alternative perspectives.
00:53:23.720
I myself had some sort of respiratory issues after that, and there was a long COVID treatment
00:53:29.960
center, and they were doing all this like sort of heavy drug use stuff, and it really, it
00:53:36.540
And I actually had the opportunity to go through like a naturopath and try, I'm not going to
00:53:39.960
advise it because I'm not a doctor, but it was interesting.
00:53:42.320
After nothing working, some of these alternative treatments, and I've not tried this product
00:53:49.100
specifically, so I can't speak to it, but I know people who have struggled, struggled,
00:53:52.600
struggled, and then they try one of these sort of alternative treatments, and it really
00:54:00.160
So yeah, some people will sort of brand this as sort of out there or whatever, but then
00:54:05.120
when you talk to people and they try it firsthand, I mean, it affects their life in a very positive
00:54:11.360
And very often, these are more natural options than what they would prescribe.
00:54:14.740
Some people are taking inhaled steroids forever instead of taking a natural alternative.
00:54:20.900
So it's great to see a company like this that is, again, strong medical background, evidence-based,
00:54:27.480
but willing to tackle some of these issues when the colleges of physicians and so many
00:54:31.760
of these government agencies would brand it as not real medicine.
00:54:36.960
Well, the fact is it very often works, and they're not married to an ideology that's being
00:54:42.300
pushed by the government that is at times anti-scientific.
00:54:45.700
They're able to look at what really works and support and help people because people
00:54:49.060
were adversely affected, and it's great to see that there's an option out there for
00:54:54.340
Well, to say the least, I don't think it's the government's job in any way, shape, or form
00:54:59.080
to be telling citizens how they must treat themselves.
00:55:02.520
And I think that's obviously been a point of contention over the last few years.
00:55:05.560
So it is nice to see that there are alternatives, and there are people who are able to sustain
00:55:11.320
alternatives to what the government is touting in the pharmaceutical front, especially considering
00:55:16.540
some of the heavy players in the pharmaceutical industry.
00:55:19.520
And speaking of that, in a sense, I should say, our next article, it's some Ottawa parents
00:55:26.820
in Ottawa were dealing with some pride activities or had a point of contest with regards to some
00:55:35.460
Some Ottawa parents keep kids home from school due to pride activities, OCDSB says.
00:55:44.100
And I know there have been cases, not necessarily in a school, but in a small town or a couple
00:55:50.060
small towns, I think, in Ontario, where the municipal bodies had decided that they weren't
00:55:56.100
going to waive or have the pride flags or any non-government flags waived on government
00:56:05.180
Do you think something like that is called for in this situation?
00:56:08.380
You know, I know the York Catholic School Board voted against this.
00:56:11.660
And Kathleen Wynne, former premier, was saying, oh, this is like callous and brutal and stuff.
00:56:16.040
I tweeted and said, listen, you don't get to talk about my faith.
00:56:27.640
Not putting up a rainbow flag or a pride flag or whatever other type of flag they want.
00:56:32.100
If it's not in line with my beliefs, it's fine.
00:56:34.540
If you try to force me to or pressure me to, you're a bigot.
00:56:39.700
I don't say you cannot put a flag up on your property.
00:56:42.100
If there's a camp or a school that prioritizes that and they want to do that good for them,
00:56:47.100
I don't think it should be on government buildings, obviously, because you don't see,
00:56:50.600
I don't demand that they fly a Vatican flag for my faith.
00:56:53.740
So I think that it should just be government flags, not ideological flags.
00:56:59.880
Now, if there's some places they have a flag where they'll do like cancer awareness things
00:57:06.600
If they want to occasionally fly a flag on one of those poles, you know what?
00:57:10.700
But the idea of bigotting, bigotedly pressuring a school, yeah, there's the tweet, you can
00:57:16.780
see it for yourself, and saying you're like a monster if you don't bend the knee and bow
00:57:24.300
Well, listen, those rights, the right to believe and have a faith and adhere to those values,
00:57:34.080
This is Catholics, Christians, whatever it may be, adhering to and upholding their faith.
00:57:40.700
The whole LGBTQSA, whatever they want to call it, I know there's a two missing in there
00:57:49.040
And I don't care who you like or what your background is.
00:57:55.860
But don't come and say I have to fly a flag on my house to support something that you
00:58:00.260
believe in that I don't necessarily believe in.
00:58:06.740
It's basically like the inversion of the Spanish Inquisition.
00:58:09.900
Instead of being criticized and tortured and maligned for not being Christian enough, let's
00:58:15.420
say you're not espousing the exact values that your king or lord at any particular moment
00:58:22.560
Now it's if you don't adhere to the LGBTQ narrative, even some of the radical elements, even if you
00:58:28.620
ask questions, even if you're concerned about child mutilation.
00:58:32.580
Well, any of those things, you're then subject to the LGBTQ Inquisition.
00:58:36.920
And you're going to be targeted and attacked for too long, Christians, Catholics, other
00:58:42.260
groups, and it tends to be Christians and Catholics.
00:58:43.880
You don't see them very often going off on folks of different faiths.
00:58:51.320
But to see them standing up and saying, no, enough is enough.
00:58:59.040
We've seen with some politicians, Pierre Polyev, Scott Moe, Daniel Smith, and now some of
00:59:05.300
these schools, even a bishop in the United States with the whole Our Ladies of Perpetual
00:59:10.360
Depravity or whatever it was, there's like a drag outfit that mocks Catholic religious
00:59:18.180
We have to take those strong stances and say, listen, you want respect.
00:59:28.160
And I saw on Twitter recently, someone had made mention of this as well, where what is the
00:59:33.900
original, I guess you call it the Abrahamic meaning behind the rainbow?
00:59:37.880
And I think now there have been so many transitions to the new pride flag and the newer pride flag
00:59:43.420
and the more inclusive pride flag that it is actually quite separated now from the original
00:59:52.480
Get that old original pride flag and just remind people about the original meaning of
00:59:59.260
And it's a commitment after the flood that there would not be another flood again.
01:00:02.600
Um, it's really interesting when, when you actually do some research on the origins of
01:00:06.980
the pride logo, there's sort of the rainbow yellow brick road musical connection.
01:00:10.900
That's often what is cited, um, as, as the origin of that logo as part of the pride community,
01:00:15.400
obviously the array of colors, a diverse community, all that sort of stuff.
01:00:19.240
Um, but pretty early on, you can also see that there's that some of the folks involved in
01:00:23.960
that, um, well, they were referring to that intentionally.
01:00:26.700
They were, uh, sort of trying to flip that and saying, listen, you, you, you said there's
01:00:32.720
So I, there's, I've seen two sort of origin stories on that.
01:00:36.300
I think there's probably an element of truth to a little bit of both of those, but I, there
01:00:39.960
are people reclaiming, uh, the flag, reclaiming the, the reclaiming the rainbow rather.
01:00:45.220
Um, but it's so wild just to see an entire month allocated to this a whole month with the
01:00:52.180
If you don't fly it, the corporate logos all switching over.
01:00:55.700
Uh, it it's wild to see it as the biggest like zeitgeist spirit of the age thing.
01:01:02.400
All these organizations on their Chinese and Saudi websites don't do it.
01:01:05.920
They just do it where it's trendy and popular and where, where the people won't sort of push
01:01:11.100
So yeah, it's something else, uh, something else.
01:01:17.040
I just wanted to say, uh, it is kind of funny in a sense that, you know, around the world,
01:01:21.380
if you were to lay someone's flag on the ground and step on it, that would be considered,
01:01:28.380
You would be stepping on it against the person whose flag that was.
01:01:31.960
And here we paint our roads and sidewalks with the pride flag, uh, and we walk all over
01:01:36.840
So it's kind of ironic, you know, maybe they're trying to take a stance toward pride and,
01:01:43.180
Uh, whereas at the same time, they're also desecrating their own movement.
01:01:50.280
Like we've seen dozens of churches vandalized and burnt down and no one seems to care.
01:01:56.860
Someone does a burnout on like a crosswalk and it's national news.
01:02:00.160
And Justin Trudeau basically visits like it's, it's wild.
01:02:03.520
The, the, the standards, um, it's, it's like the old, like ask who you can't criticize if
01:02:11.920
Let's get to these two last, uh, video clips and then we'll call it.
01:02:24.080
And just as we're pulling it up, it's on the carbon tax.
01:02:27.300
It's, it's the liberals planning another carbon tax height.
01:02:31.240
Now this brings the carbon tax up to like 61 cents a liter on fuel, even though we've
01:02:36.720
not seen a reduction in temperature and there's been no sort of positive emissions
01:02:46.060
Mr. Speaker, many families, especially those who live in rural communities have to drive
01:02:53.280
They drive to school, to work, to medical appointments, to social activities.
01:02:58.500
Families are already struggling with higher cost of living expenses.
01:03:02.220
Now this liberal government wants to add two more carbon taxes on financially stressed Canadians.
01:03:10.160
The liberal carbon tax one will add 41 cents a liter on gas.
01:03:15.460
How painful does life have to get before this prime minister will finally cancel the carbon tax?
01:03:22.580
The Honourable Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of the Environment.
01:03:28.120
And the Conservatives never want to talk about the costs of climate change.
01:03:31.480
The Parliamentary Budget Officer reported that there was a $20 billion impact to the Canadian economy in 2021, Mr. Speaker.
01:03:40.300
600 fires are burning from coast to coast to coast, Mr. Speaker.
01:03:48.940
When are the Conservatives going to get serious about climate change and stop the denial, Mr. Speaker?
01:03:57.260
Mr. Speaker, I'll tell you about the cost of this carbon tax.
01:04:06.500
Carbon tax, too, comes at a time when many Canadians are struggling just to feed themselves.
01:04:11.660
Now, every time a Canadian fills up their car, they will be paying an additional tax on the GST and the HST.
01:04:20.300
This prime minister is literally putting a carbon tax on a tax.
01:04:25.520
When will this prime minister take his boot off the neck of Canadians and finally cancel carbon tax one and two?
01:04:38.700
And the Conservatives have no credibility when it comes to affordability, Mr. Speaker.
01:04:42.640
Every time we put an affordability measure on the table, dental, rental, the Canada Child Benefit, what do they do?
01:04:49.400
And the climate rebate, Mr. Speaker, is an affordability measure.
01:04:55.320
But you know what's not going to leave families better off, Mr. Speaker?
01:05:01.280
And, Mr. Speaker, the leader of the opposition hasn't walked back his comments.
01:05:08.180
And that's because he has no plan for the environment, no plan for the economy, and certainly no plan for affordability.
01:05:15.280
I think if you actually believe that, like, that not doing a carbon tax has not helped the environment in any way, shape or form.
01:05:23.680
It's a wealth redistribution scheme where the government ends up pocketing more money and they give it to their friends.
01:05:33.360
And I don't know how that guy says it with a straight face.
01:05:35.400
He cannot believe it, that it costs $20 billion a year and it would if we weren't implementing this carbon tax.
01:05:40.700
Furthermore, it is insane to blame a sort of charitable temperature increase, like not charitable, for the fires that happen and have been happening in summers forever.
01:05:56.660
You're picking a time where there happens to be a little bit more fires than usual to score political points.
01:06:11.020
They really don't care about your average Joes.
01:06:22.100
Yeah, but Adam, if you disagree with me, we're going to lose $50 billion.
01:06:34.560
Like, there's actual plant life and trees that need the heat of wildfires in order to seed, to produce their ancestral, you know, lineage in the plant sense.
01:06:46.160
If you have zero wildfires whatsoever, then you're going to have certain trees and certain plants that go extinct.
01:06:52.560
And not only that, but control burns are actually a large, like, a very common practice.
01:06:58.440
And that, you know, in Banff, we saw one incident where there was some kind of, you know, a gender-focused training session where they had a bunch of, you know, diversity protocols.
01:07:09.220
And that wildfire in Banff was started because they were trying to do control fires.
01:07:12.820
But control fires are generally a common practice every year that has to be done to mitigate the effects of larger wildfires or wildfires that are going to hit certain areas.
01:07:32.280
And every single day, so long as it changes, they're going to say that the change is bad.
01:07:36.120
And it's a cycle for them that they can just feed off of forever because when it's too hot, they can, you know, say it's global warming.
01:07:44.080
When it's too cold, they can say it's global warming.
01:07:46.240
I mean, maybe they have to, you know, do those 20 years apart so people don't catch on too quick.
01:07:50.140
But at the end of the day, they just keep rinsing and recycling the same arguments.
01:08:00.920
George Washington Sr. prompted this whole global warming terminology.
01:08:04.820
And they've just been cycling it as a key election thing.
01:08:09.220
And it's because for most people, so much of this is just superficial language.
01:08:22.460
I really quickly do want to touch on, and this is just another symptom of the entitlement.
01:08:28.940
Trudeau and the liberal government do not work for the people.
01:08:31.700
It's clear that people do not want more taxes, but they just insist on it.
01:08:37.460
And then this next story, and it's Andrew Scheer, this video.
01:08:41.240
Justin Trudeau's hand-picked rapporteur says that he works for the government, not parliament, and not for Canadians.
01:08:46.780
Well, sorry to break it to you, and I know this isn't the case under Justin Trudeau,
01:08:50.720
but the government is supposed to work for the people.
01:08:52.940
And when you're hired by the government to investigate something, you, by extension, are working for the people.
01:09:01.000
Mr. Speaker, in response to yesterday's vote where MPs representing a clear majority of Canadians voted for him to step aside,
01:09:07.780
rapporteur David Johnston said he isn't going anywhere.
01:09:10.800
In fact, he said he doesn't work for parliament or Canadians.
01:09:16.920
He works for the same liberal government that benefited from Beijing's election interference.
01:09:21.020
And he personally serves the prime minister who chose to do nothing while Chinese-Canadians were bullied into voting for his liberal party.
01:09:30.740
So when will the prime minister fire his ski buddy and call a public inquiry?
01:09:34.780
The honourable minister for emergency preparedness.
01:09:39.320
I'm reminded once again that it's not only unfair but deeply offensive.
01:09:42.780
To listen to the member opposite question, Mr. Johnson's allegiance to this country.
01:09:47.900
His 50-year career in public service has made it crystal clear to everyone that his loyalty is to Canada.
01:09:54.080
And, Mr. Speaker, as I also said, and as I quote former Prime Minister Harper,
01:09:58.800
Mr. Johnson represents hard work, dedication, public service, and humility.
01:10:03.920
Mr. Speaker, Canada is blessed to have a man so dedicated to public service, persevering through this.
01:10:08.700
The member for Regina Capel is cursed by a prime minister who tarnished that man's reputation by involving him in this scandal.
01:10:17.460
The prime minister can't be the one to decide how to investigate this scandal because he benefited from it.
01:10:22.540
And David Johnson can't decide either because he's a family friend and a long-time member of the Trudeau Foundation.
01:10:27.960
And Frank Iacobucci can't be the one to sign off on David Johnson's role because he's part of the Trudeau Foundation as well.
01:10:35.480
Now, conflict of interest, conflict of interest, conflict of interest.
01:10:38.940
Why is it that whenever the best interests of Canadians conflict with the political interests of the prime minister,
01:10:51.240
The Honourable Minister for Emergency Preparedness.
01:10:55.300
Mr. Speaker, protecting Canada from nefarious hostile activities of foreign state actors like China is a priority for our government.
01:11:01.220
We have taken significant action to protect the integrity of Canadian institutions and, in particular, our democracy.
01:11:07.040
We recognize that there is more work to do and we all have a responsibility to stand up and protect our democracy.
01:11:12.940
I would invite all members to cease their attacks on some of the finest Canadians I know and to unite in this important work.
01:11:21.500
Yeah, I am hopeful because you see conservatives are starting to actually be like, this is ridiculous.
01:11:29.720
For the longest time, conservatives are trying not to lose elections.
01:11:33.400
We did see a little bit of that throughout campaigns, obviously, because the media is so hostile and attacky.
01:11:39.360
But the strongest moments for Andrew Scheer, for Pierre Paulyevre, for Danielle Smith, for Scott Moe,
01:11:44.560
when Scott Moe had that line about, like, if this is what you're going to do, lock me up.
01:11:49.580
Conservatives who are brash and willing to push back and willing to speak their heart and not just play politics,
01:12:00.540
And it's that that's going to win people's hearts over, I hope.
01:12:04.740
The willingness to speak from the heart, to be blunt, to be direct,
01:12:08.300
and to call out the absurd status of politics within this country right now.
01:12:12.440
Well, and again, I would recommend anybody to listen through to those question and answer periods.
01:12:18.760
It really is laughable, especially when you get Trudeau in there.
01:12:22.020
And we saw, you know, yesterday there's the clip with Pierre questioning Trudeau's previous time as a teacher.
01:12:30.140
And it is really, at the end of the day, a laughing house, regardless of, you know, what side of the aisle we're looking at.
01:12:38.400
Yes, the Conservatives right now, they're taking a very strong stance, but they're taking a strong stance as the opposition to the government in a sense.
01:12:47.880
And how many years now do we have of dirt that's been coming up under the rug and being created by this government?
01:12:54.680
There's so much ammunition at this point that if they weren't asking tough questions every single day, I'd be very disappointed.
01:13:00.660
And we're kind of at that point now where we need somebody.
01:13:04.220
It's, you know, time's come for somebody to go every single day of Justin Trudeau's time in office and note every single thing he's done.
01:13:12.260
It's time because we're not going to, Trudeau's not going to be the next premier or pardon me, prime minister of this country.
01:13:19.640
I think that's a very tough sell for anybody considering whether it be the situation happening now with regards to China's interference, whether it be his handling of the coronavirus, whether it be his seizing or attempts to reduce the amount of firearms, legally obtained firearms that are on the market, or whether it's him trying to give drugs to children and trying to mutilate them at the same time.
01:13:45.880
So now's the time we need a real banger of a documentary to hit every single point that Justin Trudeau's faulted on and let everybody know because people have forgotten.
01:14:00.120
It's at the point where I think the guy could kill a puppy on video.
01:14:02.700
I've said it before, but I think he might be able to do that and still get elected.
01:14:06.000
It's wild to see the next federal election will certainly be interesting.
01:14:11.920
I want to thank everyone for their patience, for sticking with us.
01:14:17.160
Well, let's, let's play Spets and see who wins.
