Summary

On this episode of the Daily Roundup, we remember the birth of Chris Jericho, aka Y2J, who was born on November 8th, 1924, and who was one of the greatest wrestlers to ever make his debut in the World Wrestling Federation.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Daily Roundup on this, a Thursday,
00:00:20.720 November 9th, 2023. I'm David Menzies and my co-host, well, before I get into all those
00:00:28.740 details, let me tell you something, folks. Do you know that today is the birthday of Christopher
00:00:34.840 Keith Irvine? And you're saying, who dat? Well, he's better known as Chris Jericho, aka Y2J. And I just
00:00:44.100 thought, you know, my co-hosts like me were big wrestling fans, especially of the wrestling back
00:00:49.620 in the day. And some 23 years ago, Chris Jericho made his debut in the WWF, as it was called back
00:00:56.800 then. And it was one of the greatest debuts, I think, maybe the greatest in professional history.
00:01:02.040 You see, folks, at the time, there was the whole Y2K mania. People thought as soon as the clocks went
00:01:09.200 to 2000, planes were going to fall out of the air, elevators wouldn't work, etc. It was a big scam.
00:01:15.860 It was a scam of the last century. So for months on end, the WWF was playing a countdown of Y2J.
00:01:24.800 And people were going, Y2J. And it went on and on. And finally, it counted down to zero,
00:01:30.460 right during a promo by The Rock, which didn't go over well. And I can't play the whole 10 minutes,
00:01:39.360 but I'll play the final two minutes of the back and forth of Chris Jericho and The Rock.
00:01:46.360 I'm telling you, it is money in the bank. Even 24 years later, it still makes me laugh out loud.
00:01:52.300 Let's roll it.
00:01:54.720 Thank you. The new millennium has arrived in the WWF.
00:01:58.940 And now that the Y2J problem is here, this company, from the front office idiots,
00:02:07.800 to all the amateurs in the dressing room, including this one, to everybody watching
00:02:13.180 tonight, will never, ever be the same again.
00:02:20.700 Y2J, did he say Y2J?
00:02:23.120 Yeah, there he is.
00:02:24.120 Look, The Rock just dumbfounded.
00:02:25.660 He's an arrogant young man.
00:02:27.120 Uh-oh.
00:02:32.880 After three boring minutes, The Rock says know you're wrong and shut your mouth.
00:02:46.700 How dare you little jabroni come on The Rock show and not even have the class to introduce
00:03:04.200 yourself? What is your name?
00:03:06.900 I told you.
00:03:07.960 It doesn't matter what your name is.
00:03:11.900 Uh-oh.
00:03:13.480 He got you.
00:03:15.600 Oh, boy.
00:03:17.700 The Rock says you talk about your Y2J plan.
00:03:22.480 Well, The Rock has a little plan of his own, and it's called the KY Jelly Plan.
00:03:28.320 Oh, no.
00:03:30.360 You know what that is, JR?
00:03:32.180 Yeah.
00:03:33.860 You do?
00:03:34.180 You don't clean, you don't use it to clean pipes, JR.
00:03:45.680 Which means The Rock is going to lube his size 13 boot real good.
00:03:51.460 Turn that sumbitch sideways and stick it straight up.
00:03:55.220 You're going to do that.
00:03:56.140 You know, that's an excellent piece of TV.
00:04:08.060 It is very hard to do live TV.
00:04:10.700 I know me and David make it look easy, but it is very hard to do live TV and be clever
00:04:16.440 and on the ball like that.
00:04:18.180 And, man, you've got to give credit where it's due.
00:04:20.820 Wrestlers are excellent at this.
00:04:23.740 Oh, especially back then, the so-called Shades of Grey era of the WWF slash WWE, Sheila.
00:04:32.500 But, you know, it's kind of funny, too, because I love the Jerry Seinfeld observation about
00:04:39.960 professional wrestling, which is this.
00:04:41.800 If it didn't exist, how could you possibly invent it?
00:04:47.000 I mean, the idea of 300-pound men in bathing suits and construction boots jumping off the ropes of a ring,
00:04:54.740 you know, it's just, how did it ever get to this point?
00:04:57.980 But, you know, I think we need, people might be saying, oh, why are you wasting our time with this levity?
00:05:03.720 Well, you know what?
00:05:04.220 I think the world needs more levity these days, Sheila.
00:05:07.000 These are very depressing times, given the state of the world.
00:05:11.440 And, like I said, this was perhaps the best introduction ever of a new wrestler coming into the company.
00:05:18.880 And they played off each other so well.
00:05:22.580 And that's another thing.
00:05:23.640 The sad thing about wrestling today, Sheila, I don't know if you share my observation.
00:05:28.780 The mic work is just not what it used to be.
00:05:32.020 Yeah, they've got these G.I. Joe action figure, superbly fit wrestlers.
00:05:37.460 But when it comes to the likes of The Rock and Stone Cold and Y2J and Mankind, you know,
00:05:43.940 I would argue Mankind, a brilliant wrestler with the mic, I don't think he could get hired today at the top level of wrestling.
00:05:50.980 He doesn't have that wrestler's physique.
00:05:54.020 They're obsessed with physiques right now for some reason.
00:05:57.200 One of the best guys, one of the best guys on the mic that ever existed, Dusty Rhodes.
00:06:03.320 You go to, like, Dusty Rhodes circa 1980, working the mic.
00:06:08.440 Good gracious, was he ever good.
00:06:11.080 And that is a guy who would not be hired today because he didn't have the right look.
00:06:16.040 But just absolutely excellent.
00:06:18.320 The American dream, just perfection.
00:06:21.440 You want to lose two hours of your life, start looking at old promos cut by Dusty Rhodes and all of a sudden you'll look away from your phone and it's like, where has the last two hours gone?
00:06:34.540 I'm thoroughly entertained and time just flew by.
00:06:38.120 But anyways, theme time flying by.
00:06:40.500 We should tell everybody what we're doing here because the hour quickly gets away from us if we don't.
00:06:45.680 Absolutely.
00:06:46.280 Thank you, Sheila.
00:06:46.900 Anyways, yes, out of context, Dusty Rhodes on Facebook, one of the best finds ever.
00:06:55.320 Anyway, this is the Rebel News Daily Roundup.
00:06:58.280 It's hosted by a rotating cast of characters.
00:07:00.320 Sometimes it's me.
00:07:01.220 Sometimes it's David.
00:07:02.220 Sometimes it's Ezra.
00:07:03.820 But as you know, we'll talk about the news of the day completely unscripted or even like, for example, not news.
00:07:10.340 Like what we just spent the last seven minutes on.
00:07:13.520 But you get to see your favorite rebels in their natural element, digesting the news or in some instances, 30 year old pop culture.
00:07:24.220 And it gives you the opportunity to get involved in the show.
00:07:27.540 So if you're watching us on the censorship platform of YouTube, OK, there are 1.6 million sets of eyeballs over there.
00:07:34.220 We don't want to abandon you.
00:07:35.240 We're grateful for you.
00:07:36.980 But might I suggest you migrate over to a platform that doesn't really care about your politics?
00:07:42.140 There is Odyssey and there is Rumble.
00:07:46.440 And on either one of those platforms, you can leave a paid chat that helps democratize the show.
00:07:52.780 It gives you your say.
00:07:53.560 And if it is over $5 U.S. or more, I'm obligating myself and David to read your chat on air.
00:08:02.480 It's a great way to support the show because we'll never take a penny from Justin Trudeau and take it in your own direction.
00:08:07.700 But don't let that $5 be the barrier for participation because frequently we read chats that are under that amount.
00:08:19.640 And sometimes even if you're clever enough or if it tickles Yankee's fancy, he'll put an unpaid chat in the thread so that we will read it on air.
00:08:28.620 But I think that's it.
00:08:30.280 Lots to talk about today.
00:08:32.080 Let's get into it, David Menzies.
00:08:33.980 Wow. Talk about a punchline just dangling over home plate.
00:08:38.060 Yankee's fancy, but I dare not say that.
00:08:42.040 You know, well, we...
00:08:43.400 Turn in a phrase.
00:08:45.040 From professional wrestling to perhaps another thing of pomp and circumstance, which is hard to pin down, that would be the climate crisis.
00:08:57.020 Or is it the climate emergency?
00:08:59.060 Or is it the climate catastrophe?
00:09:01.060 Sheila Gunn-Reed, you know, can they actually get the terminology straight?
00:09:05.600 And by the way, is there something beyond catastrophe?
00:09:09.060 I guess maybe climate pandemic.
00:09:12.720 Apocalypse.
00:09:13.340 Apocalypse.
00:09:13.820 Apocalypse.
00:09:14.040 Thank you.
00:09:14.640 I think that would be the ultimate.
00:09:16.200 Yeah.
00:09:16.960 But apparently...
00:09:18.300 It's a climate scare.
00:09:19.200 The climate scare and the climate scam is what I would call it.
00:09:22.780 But anyways, you go on.
00:09:23.660 Yes.
00:09:24.300 And I see here, the buzzword title here is, scientists warn earth warming faster than expected due to reduction in ship pollution.
00:09:39.680 Well, Sheila, a very little brain like me can't connect the dots here.
00:09:44.660 Can you help me out what they're trying to say in this CBC article?
00:09:48.480 And you know what?
00:09:51.480 It's James Hansen.
00:09:53.580 So take this for what it is.
00:09:57.940 This guy is, I think he's the guy behind the hockey stick graph that was so debunked.
00:10:04.920 Oh, my God.
00:10:05.700 And he's showing his face in public after that?
00:10:08.520 I think it is.
00:10:09.420 Anyways, the past five months, again, when you think about, when you truly, truly think about this, you have to think about how outrageous the claims are.
00:10:20.140 You cannot come to any other conclusion.
00:10:22.240 The past five months have shattered global temperature records, taking scientists by surprise.
00:10:27.340 Really?
00:10:27.680 You told me the earth is going to end every day.
00:10:30.920 So why are you taken by surprise?
00:10:35.260 Many are asking why.
00:10:36.860 A new study published in Oxford Open Climate Change by renowned U.S. climate scientist James Hansen suggests one of the drivers has been an unintentional global geoengineering experiment, the reduction in ship tracks.
00:10:52.740 So as commercial ships move across the ocean, they emit exhaust that includes sulfur.
00:10:58.080 This can contribute to the formation of marine clouds through aerosols known as ship tracks, which radiate heat back out into space.
00:11:05.180 However, in 2020, as part of an effort to curb the harmful aerosol pollution released by these ships, the International Maritime Organization imposed strict regulations on shipping, reducing sulfur content in fuel from 3.5% to 0.5%.
00:11:22.320 The reduction in marine clouds has allowed more heat to be absorbed into the oceans, accelerating an energy imbalance where more heat is being trapped than released.
00:11:31.960 So I'll cut through the jargon, because there are fewer particulates being emitted by cargo ships burning bunker fuel, which is actually, if you care about this sort of thing, a huge emitter.
00:11:46.080 But because they've reduced the real dangerous particulate emissions, as in sulfur, fewer, less carbon and less pollution is actually now driving climate change, according to these people.
00:12:03.340 So really, like everything causes climate change, more pollution, less pollution, it's all going to spell the end of the world.
00:12:15.440 And the only thing, the only thing that you can do to stop it, pay that carbon tax, buddies, pay it.
00:12:22.480 You just have to pay your tithe to the climate gods.
00:12:25.360 That's the only thing that will stop climate change, because whether or not you have higher emissions or lower emissions, it doesn't matter.
00:12:32.500 The climate gods are going to kill you unless they get their sacrifice.
00:12:35.620 You know, this is unbelievable, Sheila.
00:12:38.260 The way the blackface liberals sell the carbon tax, it's a tax on pollution.
00:12:43.540 I remember six years ago when Climate Barbie was in Toronto and she was at the music hall on Danforth.
00:12:48.500 It was just when the SNC scandal was breaking, so they had to do distractions.
00:12:55.860 And I remember her coming on stage, and I swear, folks, this is what she said.
00:13:00.160 Hands up, everyone who's against pollution.
00:13:03.260 Well, you know, that would be 100% of all reasonable people on planet Earth.
00:13:10.080 So we're paying the carbon tax as a tax on pollution.
00:13:13.900 We see by this article that the bunker fuel pollution has gone down, but the climate emergency is worsening.
00:13:23.600 So, Sheila, I can't make sense of any of this.
00:13:27.620 What are we supposed to do tangibly other than what you said, pay more carbon taxes, as if that helps with the climate?
00:13:36.760 As if any of this is measurable anyway, by the way.
00:13:40.460 There's no such thing as a global temperature.
00:13:42.740 You can't even take the temperature accurately in your backyard.
00:13:46.560 If you put, and Friends of Science did an incredible experiment just to show you how crazy it is when they tell you you have to keep the global emissions below 1.5 degrees of increase or whatever.
00:14:00.620 You can't measure the temperature in your backyard.
00:14:04.040 If you put five thermometers in your backyard just in different locations, you would get wild variations across the board.
00:14:13.480 Now, they want to tell me that they can judge the temperature of the surface of the Earth across multiple microclimates, across different topography, different levels of humidity in deserts, across different elevations.
00:14:31.300 That they can somehow measure it all, come up with an average temperature, and then tell you how much carbon you're allowed to burn to stay underneath it.
00:14:41.740 It's bonkers.
00:14:42.820 It's absolutely insane.
00:14:44.200 But it doesn't matter anyway, because even if you reduce pollution, apparently it causes climate change.
00:14:51.100 You know what, Sheila?
00:14:52.200 As I mentioned, Y2K was the scam of the century, meaning last century.
00:14:56.780 This, this climate change hysteria is the scam of this current century, and there's no shortage of hucksters making out like bandits as they proclaim the sky is about to fall.
00:15:10.760 And by the way, I did mention the blackface liberals and speak of the devil.
00:15:14.460 Yeah, speaking of hucksters.
00:15:15.960 Yeah, there's the biggest crew.
00:15:19.260 And speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
00:15:21.380 I believe we have a video clip of blackface in parliament yesterday.
00:15:25.720 He's talking about what makes Canadians afraid.
00:15:29.640 You know what I think makes the majority of Canadians afraid these days, Sheila?
00:15:33.180 I would say making the mortgage payment every month, putting food on the table.
00:15:38.780 Yeah, having enough money to put gas in the tank, you know, to bring the kids to school, to commute to work.
00:15:43.480 I think that's what's making most Canadians afraid.
00:15:46.820 Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:15:48.280 That's okay, Jack.
00:15:50.060 What's making Canadians afraid right now is climate change?
00:15:54.600 Here, check out blackface himself.
00:15:57.360 I have to admit I'm a little worried for the leader of the opposition.
00:16:01.380 When he has to stoop to bringing up the separatist boogeyman to try and scare Canadians, he must be running out of material.
00:16:07.740 The fact of the matter is, Mr. Speaker, Canadians are afraid of climate change.
00:16:12.200 They're afraid of the extreme weather events.
00:16:14.520 They're afraid of the concerns we have about a brighter future.
00:16:17.560 What we are doing is fighting climate change every day while we build a stronger economy with greater careers, while we support Canadians every single day with a high cost of living.
00:16:28.580 This is what we're delivering.
00:16:30.060 He has no plan to fight climate change, no plan for the future of the economy, no plan for Canadians.
00:16:35.600 Sheila, this blackface is saying no plan for the economy.
00:16:43.040 This is the same prime minister who said the budget would balance itself.
00:16:47.660 I still don't know what that means.
00:16:49.320 And everyone I've ever asked that question to, including diehard liberals, can't explain it either.
00:16:54.100 But, Sheila, the idea of, you know, Canadians going to bed at night and saying, oh, you know what?
00:17:02.640 Today was 1.8 degrees above seasonal.
00:17:06.560 I'm so worried.
00:17:08.420 Oh, God, please do something about climate change.
00:17:12.560 Is that happening in any corner of our globe, especially amongst those Canadians who aren't living in the basement and are gender study students and have no responsibilities?
00:17:23.340 But, you know, the Canadians that are working hard to make ends meet, which is getting increasingly hard right now?
00:17:31.060 Yeah, the only people who care about this stuff are professional students who are currently lobbying their Starbucks franchisee where they work to put the, I don't know, the latte machine on solar.
00:17:43.200 Like, I don't know who actually cares about this stuff.
00:17:47.380 With inflation out of control and it's down the entire supply chain, people are worried about how they're paying their bills.
00:17:56.960 They're worried about if they're able to qualify for a mortgage, paying the mortgage.
00:18:02.540 Young people who have real jobs or at least looking for a real job with tangible skills,
00:18:08.840 they're worried about never, ever, ever being able to afford a house and a car and a child simultaneously,
00:18:16.340 which is something that our parents or even my generation, I hate saying that, we can't afford.
00:18:23.420 And that it's still within the reach of young people in Alberta, but in liberal strongholds,
00:18:30.840 it is no longer within the reach of young people.
00:18:33.800 And that should actually scare the liberals.
00:18:36.900 That should be the thing keeping Justin Trudeau up at night and not climate change.
00:18:40.700 Nobody cares about climate change.
00:18:42.180 You're told by the TV that you should care about climate change.
00:18:45.340 But really, is it anything that you think about at all, especially as we approach winter?
00:18:50.840 Give me a break.
00:18:52.800 Yeah, and you know, Sheila, the only thing blackface missed in terms of liberal talking points,
00:18:58.480 I'm surprised he didn't work in the LGBTQ2S plus community.
00:19:03.880 Islamophobia.
00:19:04.600 Yeah, Islamophobia for that matter.
00:19:07.260 And all I can think of if the temperature rises continually at the gay pride parades,
00:19:14.020 those members who take off all their clothes and simulate sex acts in public in front of children,
00:19:19.800 they might get to be too much of a sweaty Betty.
00:19:22.640 Or if the climate plunges, I guess we're talking about major shrinkage going on.
00:19:29.780 So either way, climate change for that community, I'm sure, is front and center.
00:19:35.860 Like I said, can't believe he missed mentioning that demographic.
00:19:40.720 But from blackface to, well, perhaps one of my favorite politicians in our great dominion these days,
00:19:47.880 that would be none other than Alberta Premier Daniel Smith.
00:19:50.960 And to show she's got a good sense of humor and that she's a good sport.
00:19:55.740 Well, she joined.
00:19:57.740 This hour has 22 minutes.
00:19:59.920 Why not?
00:20:00.820 She and all of us are paying for it, being a CBC production.
00:20:04.460 So let's take a look at this video about the Trudeau Liberals carbon tax carve out, as they call it,
00:20:12.800 for Atlantic Canadians.
00:20:15.060 Something denied to all other Canadians, even though blackface says a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.
00:20:20.500 Oh, it's all so confusing.
00:20:22.120 Let's see what Daniel Smith has to say.
00:20:24.500 Oh, my God.
00:20:25.980 Daniel Smith, Premier of Alberta.
00:20:27.320 This is very exciting for me.
00:20:28.220 As a Newfoundlander, being the Premier of Alberta is kind of like meeting the Wizard of Oz,
00:20:31.840 because there's no problem in Atlantic Canada that can't be fixed by moving to Alberta.
00:20:36.300 And, you know, as a Canadian, kind of my favorite Premier, because sometimes you do kind of crazy stuff,
00:20:40.780 whether it's blowing up the CPP or talking about Alberta sovereignty.
00:20:44.120 If you were to separate, what would be on the flag?
00:20:46.760 Would it be the Wild Rose or would it just be one of those F. Trudeau flags?
00:20:49.460 Anyway, if you could ask Justin Trudeau for one thing and actually get it, Premier, what would it be?
00:20:55.500 Well, he should stay out of Alberta's business and stick to federal jurisdiction.
00:20:59.360 I think that's what the Supreme Court said, and that's what I'd love.
00:21:01.200 Can't do that.
00:21:04.220 But what I can do is this.
00:21:06.480 I can give you this heat pump.
00:21:08.540 We'll give them out all over here in Atlantic Canada, and I think if you accept this, then it'll be even-steven.
00:21:13.340 What do you say?
00:21:14.440 They don't work in Alberta.
00:21:15.820 We get below minus 25.
00:21:17.220 I don't think they're actually going to work.
00:21:20.180 It's from the Liberal government.
00:21:21.800 It's not going to work.
00:21:22.460 You know what, Sheila?
00:21:33.720 She's a good sport.
00:21:34.660 That wasn't bad.
00:21:35.800 That wasn't bad for Mark Critch.
00:21:37.260 Usually, he's insufferable.
00:21:38.700 That was fine.
00:21:39.980 It was, and I think Premier Smith gets the last laugh.
00:21:44.600 And besides, since you are an Albertan, Sheila, what do you think about that, replacing the current Albertan flag, if separation comes to fruition, with the F-Trudel flag?
00:21:58.140 Hey, I'm down with that.
00:22:01.520 You know what?
00:22:03.240 His jokes were fine.
00:22:05.060 Like, they're fine.
00:22:05.780 It's true.
00:22:06.280 That is something that people, you would probably see more of those flags out here, depending on what neck of the woods you're in.
00:22:14.000 Than a Canadian flag these days.
00:22:16.060 So, yeah.
00:22:16.420 It was fine.
00:22:17.380 It was fine.
00:22:17.820 I was expecting, like, more mean-spirited.
00:22:20.580 Because I did not, all that long ago, watch This Hour is 22 Minutes just to remind myself that it exists.
00:22:27.940 And it was just all of them just unfunny jabs at Pierre Polyev.
00:22:35.360 Yeah.
00:22:35.760 And nothing directed at the Liberals.
00:22:38.180 And I thought, like, comedians used to speak truth to power.
00:22:43.040 Yeah.
00:22:43.780 But not in Canada when the comedy is government-funded, which is bizarre.
00:22:51.120 You see the same thing on Saturday Night Live.
00:22:53.200 I mean, if ever there was a president ripe for parody, it's Joe Biden.
00:22:58.880 But I'm told, because I haven't seen Saturday Night Live for years now, he's kind of a sacred cow.
00:23:06.060 Although I believe a week or two ago, they did take a jab at him about something.
00:23:10.300 But you know what?
00:23:11.240 Nothing like a robust debate when you have factual information.
00:23:18.080 And what I liked about that, Sheila, I'm no expert in the HVAC department.
00:23:24.840 But I understand, as Daniel Smith said, he pumps to work for literally millions of Canadians.
00:23:34.420 And yet, what is the narrative?
00:23:35.560 I can't listen to radio on my way home from Rebel World Headquarters without some utility talking about getting some government rebate to install a heat pump.
00:23:50.040 Well, I think you better do the math first and find out if you're in a part of the country where a heat pump in winter ain't going to pump heat.
00:23:59.860 Yeah, I mean, again, this is just the liberals forgetting that the prairies exist at all.
00:24:08.260 Like, if they're giving out subsidies to get a heat pump, this is a subsidy that nobody on the prairies can qualify for.
00:24:15.120 This is directed at urbanites in Vancouver, Toronto, maybe, the East Coast once again.
00:24:23.980 But this is just the liberals, like, completely forgetting that whole middle part of the country that votes blue, anything but Justin Trudeau.
00:24:35.140 There was something I wanted to point out.
00:24:37.100 Sorry.
00:24:38.220 No, go ahead.
00:24:39.080 And then we'll just move on because I'm going to put the production team on the spot.
00:24:42.760 They are in the business of setting unrealistic goals when it comes to the so-called climate change or man-made climate change.
00:24:49.900 For example, Sheila, by 2030, which, when you think about it, isn't that far away.
00:24:56.580 It'll be here before you know it.
00:24:58.880 Supposedly, 80% of federal vehicles are supposed to be EV.
00:25:05.440 So as we head into 2024, what is the number right now, folks?
00:25:10.460 3%.
00:25:10.900 I mean, when you cherry-pick various departments, Canadian Border Services Agency, for example, I believe the number of vehicles they have is 1,010.
00:25:26.940 How many are EVs?
00:25:29.160 12.
00:25:29.840 That means 998 are fossil fuel burners.
00:25:33.820 What I'm saying, Sheila, is I don't think this goal is going to be achieved.
00:25:39.100 And we see various jurisdictions, like in Toronto, where we have EV ambulances being pulled off the road because they're unreliable.
00:25:46.140 New York City, EV snowplows.
00:25:50.220 They're being mothballed, again, because they're not reliable.
00:25:54.120 But do you think that in the space of just over five years, 80% of federal government vehicles, Sheila, are going to be full EVs?
00:26:07.480 No.
00:26:08.500 I love the ability to just call up data in Alberta.
00:26:14.440 Right now, motorized vehicle registrations by fuel type in Alberta, 3.6 million vehicles registered for the road in Alberta.
00:26:28.300 We have under 10,000 that are fully electric.
00:26:31.540 I'm guessing those are mostly government vehicles because nobody else buys that.
00:26:35.860 And they're probably bought in the NDP years.
00:26:38.860 But those also might be municipal vehicles.
00:26:41.480 You see those, like City of Edmonton, like, I'm fully electric.
00:26:45.380 Great.
00:26:45.840 I don't work in the winter.
00:26:47.120 That's what it says to me.
00:26:48.820 And hybrids, there are 43,000 hybrids on the road.
00:26:56.340 So I wonder if the Canadian or if the Alberta public is actually achieving a higher percentage of electric or hybrid vehicles than the federal government.
00:27:09.920 There's one other-
00:27:11.820 I'll have to crunch the numbers.
00:27:13.380 And when you do, Sheila, because I speak from experience here-
00:27:18.280 I bet you do.
00:27:19.300 Well, there's the full-on gas-powered vehicles.
00:27:23.620 There are hybrids, as you mentioned.
00:27:25.280 But pay attention to plug-in hybrids, which some people will classify as a full EV.
00:27:32.200 Now, I own a plug-in hybrid, and I can tell you I get maybe about 40 or 45 clicks of electric travel.
00:27:39.980 And then the rest of the tank is gas.
00:27:43.620 I'm not ready to make the separation.
00:27:46.180 And by the way, if anyone's saying, oh, well, how could you buy a green plate plug-in hybrid, Menzies?
00:27:51.300 Well, it's easy.
00:27:51.880 I live in the GTA, and I get to use the HOV lane as a single driver.
00:27:57.840 That's my motivation.
00:27:59.200 It's nothing else, folks.
00:28:00.340 And that saves me so much time.
00:28:02.840 And time is indeed money.
00:28:04.740 So when you do crunch those numbers, find out if a hybrid or rather if an EV is a plug-in hybrid, which means that it's not really a genuine EV at all, Sheila.
00:28:18.720 I'm just going to bulk number the hybrids and the electric and then do that as a proportion of the total registered vehicles.
00:28:29.280 I'm curious.
00:28:30.740 We might be actually achieving a greater target of electric vehicles.
00:28:35.460 I mean, I don't know why you would in Alberta, but somebody is buying these things.
00:28:40.420 But we might be, us dirty Albertans might be doing a better job at going green as far as our transportation system goes.
00:28:48.060 Before we move on, I'm going to put the guys on the spot for a second.
00:28:53.680 I don't know if we talked about it yesterday, but the mainstream media in Alberta is losing its marbles because Danielle Smith is doing a sit-down with Tucker Carlson.
00:29:07.980 Oh, I love it.
00:29:08.720 And it's like she's talking to whoever wants to talk to her.
00:29:14.980 That's what the premier of the province is supposed to do.
00:29:19.340 She's the premier for all Albertans, not just the statistical rounding error that watches Mark Critch on This Hour Has 22 Minutes.
00:29:27.960 She just did CBC.
00:29:30.600 Now she actually wants to talk to more people, as in the people who watch or listen to Tucker Carlson.
00:29:39.360 So she's going to have a little sit-down fireside.
00:29:43.180 I think it sounds like fireside chat with Tucker Carlson.
00:29:45.800 And she's very interesting to Americans because she's the most freedom-loving premier who is prickling against the constant tyranny of Justin Trudeau.
00:29:59.640 And Americans are often very interested in Justin Trudeau's tyranny.
00:30:03.420 She was elected as a reflex against the tyranny that was happening here in Alberta.
00:30:09.880 So, of course, she is international news, this beacon inside this dark, dark country at this moment.
00:30:18.460 And, of course, Tucker Carlson wants to talk to her.
00:30:20.700 And so what are the mainstream media journalists doing in this province?
00:30:25.520 Oh, bad idea, Danielle.
00:30:27.500 Bad idea.
00:30:28.880 It's remarkable to see these other journalists saying to a politician, don't talk to that.
00:30:36.400 Don't talk to this bigger journalist than us because, ew, that's gross.
00:30:43.220 You know what, Sheila?
00:30:45.320 Two points on what you just said.
00:30:47.380 First of all, thank God Tucker Carlson cares about Canada because…
00:30:53.040 Yeah, someone's got to.
00:30:54.320 Yeah, as important as Daniel Smith is, I mean, there's so many Americans and American journalists that are very insular looking.
00:31:02.440 And, you know, Canada is just that big blob of pink landmass north of the border in those geography maps.
00:31:11.840 But Tucker Carlson, as he showed during the Freedom Convoy, hugely interested.
00:31:19.400 Hugely interested in the Busty Lemieux saga, if you can imagine.
00:31:23.520 You know, and thank goodness for that because there are not many Americans that are.
00:31:30.020 Secondly, thank goodness that Blackface's trained SEALs are having a conniption because in the department of no publicity is bad publicity, this is going to just drive more eyeballs to that podcast.
00:31:45.320 People are going to say, oh my goodness, even people who have never heard of Tucker Carlson are probably going to say, oh, I got to see this.
00:31:53.240 Why is this man so evil?
00:31:55.060 Why is he so wicked?
00:31:56.460 And so keep it up, guys.
00:31:57.980 Keep it up, Calgary Herald.
00:32:00.000 Keep vilifying this upcoming presentation.
00:32:03.800 You're only going to make the audience bigger than it already is.
00:32:06.640 Well, and, you know, like they're they reveal how stupid they are.
00:32:12.380 Honestly, they say Tucker Carlson advocated for the invasion of Canada.
00:32:17.700 No, he didn't.
00:32:19.140 It was a thought experiment where he said if another country wherein the leader of it weren't a progressive icon, if you are on the left, as Justin Trudeau is, he said like it was a thought experiment.
00:32:35.980 Like if let's say somebody, some somebody in Brazil was locking up pastors, closing churches, freezing the bank accounts of peaceful protesters, imprisoning the leaders of an anti tyranny movement for 50 plus days, doing all the things that just imposing onerous taxes, these restrictions on the Internet.
00:33:02.460 These restrictions on news, these restrictions on free speech.
00:33:06.280 If that were happening in, let's say, a right wing government in South America, there would be musings within the American government that maybe we should have a little bit of a CIA coup down there.
00:33:18.980 And nobody was nobody was even talking about what how bad it is in Canada because Justin Trudeau is one of theirs, theirs being the progressives.
00:33:30.240 And that was the thing.
00:33:31.420 And the media right over their head because they're bought and paid for by the same tyrant that that Tucker was talking about.
00:33:40.080 You're absolutely bang on.
00:33:41.960 And also the fact that Tucker Carlson was, you know, joking.
00:33:46.000 I mean, does he have to hold up a little checkered flag to indicate this is a humorless people?
00:33:51.660 But before we break for our first ad break, Sheila, I am going to go on the record yet again, because I know there's many Canadians buggering out of black faces Canada and going to places like Mexico and particularly Costa Rica.
00:34:06.160 I am going to state maybe for the fourth or fifth time that I think, yeah, Costa Rica is ripe for invasion.
00:34:14.940 They have no army, no Navy, no Air Force, even with our depleted Canadian Armed Forces.
00:34:21.820 I think we can take them, Sheila, make it the 11th province.
00:34:25.200 We don't have to worry about a passport.
00:34:27.240 The Costa Ricans are going to be boycotting us now.
00:34:30.240 I know.
00:34:30.620 Great.
00:34:31.120 Costa Ricans, don't send me letters.
00:34:32.900 He's joking, I think.
00:34:34.420 Not really.
00:34:35.040 But anyways, let's break for our first ad.
00:34:37.720 Yeah.
00:34:42.680 David Menzies for Rebel News here in downtown Toronto.
00:34:45.740 And I got to tell you, folks, next March, March 23rd to 30th, to be precise, we are going on a Caribbean cruise.
00:34:53.780 Can you imagine that?
00:34:54.720 And a lot of your favorite rebels will be there, such as Sheila Gunn-Reeds.
00:34:59.120 We got Alexa Lavoie, the big boss man himself.
00:35:01.960 Of course, he'll be there, Ezra Levent.
00:35:03.700 And how about this?
00:35:05.180 How about this for the cherry on the sundae?
00:35:07.000 Tamara Leach, Canada's number one freedom fighter.
00:35:10.600 She'll be on that boat, too.
00:35:12.400 And look at the itinerary.
00:35:14.360 We're going to be going to Half Moon Cay in the Bahamas.
00:35:18.160 And then we're going to jazz it up in Oco Rios, Jamaica.
00:35:21.300 And then there's Georgetown in the Cayman Islands.
00:35:23.500 And finally, Cozumel, Mexico.
00:35:26.280 Can you imagine that?
00:35:27.280 If you want more details in terms of getting aboard the ship, go to rebelnewscruise.com.
00:35:34.140 That's rebelnewscruise.com.
00:35:36.400 All the details are there, the departure dates, the costs.
00:35:39.480 And you know what?
00:35:40.340 This is not just a fun-pilled getaway.
00:35:43.440 This is a way in which Rebel News raises some revenue.
00:35:48.400 Unlike the mainstream media, we don't receive a nickel of government funding, nor would we take it if ever offered.
00:35:54.620 So it's win-win.
00:35:56.840 Enjoy yourself in the Caribbean and Mexico.
00:36:00.020 And also support your favorite online news channel.
00:36:04.280 So that's rebelnewscruise.com.
00:36:06.500 I hope to see you aboard.
00:36:10.480 Come on out November 25th.
00:36:12.520 It's all aboard the Freedom Train in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
00:36:15.860 You can check Rebel News for updates and also the Freedom Passport site.
00:36:20.160 Tamera Leach, who led the Truckers' Convoy, will be sharing the stage with some of the finest international recording artists.
00:36:27.480 Like the Chopped Horns from New York City, who's played with Alicia Keys, Stevie Wonder, the Rolling Stones, and many more.
00:36:34.440 Plus New World Sun, just off a European tour.
00:36:38.120 And the legendary R&B master, Leroy Emanuel.
00:36:42.560 Get on the Freedom Train with Tamera Leach.
00:36:46.940 Saturday, November 25th at Niagara-on-the-Lake Central Community Center, 680 York Road.
00:36:52.700 Get your tickets today at freedompassport.ca.
00:36:56.340 The Freedom Train is coming.
00:36:58.380 Know your rights.
00:36:59.780 Know your freedoms.
00:37:00.680 Oh, Sheila, this year, forget about Christmas.
00:37:08.220 I'm counting down the days of the Freedom Train concert on November 25th in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
00:37:14.520 And, of course, that Rebel News cruise.
00:37:17.600 Sheila, I've already packed the tanning butter.
00:37:20.280 What do you think about that?
00:37:23.020 We're trying to sell tickets.
00:37:24.920 How dare you?
00:37:27.260 I know we have a lot in this next segment, so let's weed out a couple of – let's talk.
00:37:34.520 The three things I really want to talk about are the insurrection happening on Parliament Hill yesterday.
00:37:41.700 Oh, yeah.
00:37:42.140 And then Doug Ford coming to life.
00:37:46.120 You know, I always think that's newsworthy.
00:37:47.860 And the last one on there about the AP and Reuters photojournalists, that's gross.
00:37:58.440 As this news broke yesterday, I was with Kian Simone, and we were talking about what we would have done if we became privy to that sort of news.
00:38:09.100 Anyways, we'll talk about that in a second, but let's talk about this first story.
00:38:14.820 I think we've got a video on it, too.
00:38:18.500 But yesterday, these anti-Israel protesters continued to do all the things the convoy was accused of but never doing.
00:38:27.420 And yesterday, they blocked entries to parking lots at Wellington and Bank, Kent, and Leon, yes, so that MPs and parliamentary staff couldn't get to work.
00:38:44.660 And this is all part of their – they call it the Palestinian youth movement, but really it's the anti-Israel calls to genocide movement.
00:38:56.840 And apparently because MPs, by and large, although some of them not as strongly enough, have said that they support Israel now, they – apparently they're not allowed to go to work.
00:39:10.020 And normally I'm all for politicians not going to work, the less they're at work, the better.
00:39:15.240 Did anyone notice?
00:39:16.940 Yeah, like would you tangibly notice if the government shut down tomorrow?
00:39:21.440 But for me, it's the dichotomy.
00:39:25.360 There seems to be no action taken against these disruptive hate rallies.
00:39:30.780 They're doing all the things the convoy was accused of doing, but the convoy never actually did.
00:39:35.360 And yet, the politicians are taking a completely hands-off approach.
00:39:40.880 Well, Sheila, one of the demands is that the Canadian government demand a ceasefire in the region.
00:39:49.540 And that's – and by the way, they never incorporate the release of the more than 220-odd hostages.
00:39:57.700 240.
00:39:58.820 240, apparently.
00:40:00.720 240.
00:40:01.600 Some of whom are Canadians.
00:40:03.220 That's not part of – and as far as I'm concerned, you cannot talk about a ceasefire until those hostages are released.
00:40:12.560 That's the first thing.
00:40:13.640 Secondly, the narrative with the pro-Hamas types is the disproportionate amount of death.
00:40:19.860 And when you look at the numbers, 1,400 Israelis were massacred on October 7th.
00:40:29.120 And if you can believe the Gaza Ministry of Health, and that's a big ask, 10,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have died since Israel went in.
00:40:41.000 Now, yeah, 10,000 is a bigger number than 1,400, but is that, you know, what I'll call new Palestinian math?
00:40:50.340 I go back, Sheila, to 2006.
00:40:53.920 Galad Shalat, an IDF soldier, was kidnapped.
00:40:57.120 He was held for more than five years, finally released in 2011.
00:41:03.240 And what were the terms of that?
00:41:05.600 Well, it turns out that one IDF soldier's life is worth 1,027 Palestinian prisoners' life.
00:41:16.040 So I got out my little Texas Instruments calculator from back in the high school days, still working.
00:41:22.220 And I multiplied 10,000 by 1,027.
00:41:28.800 So to have a proportionate death amount, it would be 1,400 Israelis and 1,437,800 Palestinians.
00:41:41.720 Hey, don't blame me, folks.
00:41:44.520 That's what the Palestinians called for back in 2011.
00:41:48.120 1,027 to 1.
00:41:50.580 So going by that ratio, Israel has a long, long, long way to go before we're talking disproportionate.
00:41:59.140 Not only that, the problem with the deaths of Palestinian civilians hangs squarely around the neck of the Hamas leadership.
00:42:11.880 They know that dead Palestinian civilians is a public relations win for them, which is why they tell the Palestinians to stay where they are,
00:42:28.200 even though the Israeli government is sending text messages into Gaza, telling them where they're going to strike and telling them to go south.
00:42:37.820 And the Hamas government says, stay where you are.
00:42:42.740 Why?
00:42:43.640 Because it is a public relations win when you see death and destruction in Gaza.
00:42:50.260 And it's also the reason why they put their weapons caches under schools, under hospitals, under churches, under mosques, because Hamas loves a good human shield.
00:43:06.700 They know the rest of the world is outraged at civilian deaths.
00:43:11.360 I just wish Hamas was as outraged at civilian deaths instead of cheering for them because of the public relations win.
00:43:18.480 Oh, on the contrary, there's even a name for that strategy, Sheila.
00:43:22.320 It's called the CNN moment, meaning when there's collateral damage and, say, a Palestinian child is killed, tragically,
00:43:30.840 and you have the mother or father or grandfather or grandmother holding the dead child in their arms, weeping.
00:43:37.540 Get CNN to televise that.
00:43:41.180 That's your CNN moment in terms of crimes against humanity, in terms of Israel acting as a genocidal state, and so on and so forth.
00:43:51.940 But you're absolutely right.
00:43:53.380 They are using their own people as human shields.
00:43:56.720 That is undeniable.
00:43:57.540 Undeniable.
00:43:58.960 And there's this little matter of the 240 hostages before you talk about any kind of real ceasefire.
00:44:05.920 I understand Israel has agreed to four-hour windows per day at the request of President Biden.
00:44:13.620 But until we're talking about an actual, tangible permanent ceasefire, you have to release those hostages.
00:44:21.840 And not only are the hostages being released, not only are these pro-Hamas demonstrators we see all over the Western world demanding the release of the hostages,
00:44:31.360 which would, I think, curry favor with most reasonable people.
00:44:35.120 They are tearing down posters of those hostages that are being held by Hamas.
00:44:43.440 And we're talking women, children, seniors, Holocaust survivors.
00:44:48.580 Somehow a poster saying, bring this person back is a trigger, is propaganda, is inflammatory.
00:44:58.360 Are you kidding me?
00:44:59.220 No, they won't even allow that communication to exist, Sheila, let alone demand those hostages be released.
00:45:09.360 So I'm sorry, I'm not on team barbarism.
00:45:13.560 I'm a big fan of civilization, I'm afraid to say.
00:45:16.880 Yeah, I got a real tough time listening to people prattle on about civilians while babies are being held in Gaza.
00:45:23.200 Those babies are civilians too.
00:45:25.140 Yep.
00:45:25.320 Um, and, and, uh, they deserve to be home.
00:45:29.380 And until such time, there should be no talk of a ceasefire until all 240 plus hostages are back home.
00:45:38.140 Um, let's bump ahead to Doug Ford.
00:45:41.760 Okay.
00:45:42.980 A moment of conservatism.
00:45:44.880 We should stop and pause and reflect on this.
00:45:48.060 Uh, video from Doug Ford.
00:45:51.780 Friends, if you wouldn't mind.
00:45:55.320 You, you see some of these rallies, and this is where I get in trouble when I go off my speech.
00:46:02.040 My, my team's probably going well.
00:46:04.160 You see these, I call them hate rallies, going down our streets, trying to intimidate our Jewish communities.
00:46:10.880 And they are hate rallies.
00:46:12.280 When you're flying the Hamas flag, that's hate.
00:46:17.460 That is a form of hatred.
00:46:20.340 And as I, as I always say, I don't direct the police, and I never will direct the police.
00:46:26.080 But that is a form of hate speech.
00:46:29.060 Well, you know what, Sheila?
00:46:32.780 Um, there was one profound soundbite in that, which I don't think many people will pick up on.
00:46:39.160 And that was his reference to my team, you know, being concerned about, uh, the premier going off the script.
00:46:46.700 Because that's how Doug Ford rolls, folks.
00:46:50.180 Uh, there is this team behind the scenes that leads the premier around like a circus donkey.
00:46:57.080 So, I want to give credit where credit is due.
00:46:59.940 He's speaking out against this anti-Semitism.
00:47:03.960 And he's also not couching it.
00:47:05.380 You notice, Sheila, even if it's pro-Hamas demonstrators targeting a Jewish business,
00:47:10.640 uh, we get the likes of Blackface coming out to contend, uh, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.
00:47:17.140 Wait a minute, where's the Islamophobia in the Islamic mob, uh, trying to put a Jewish business, uh, out of business?
00:47:24.960 But they have to couch it that way.
00:47:27.360 But, uh, like I said, Sheila, uh, when Premier Ford mentioned his team getting nervous behind the scenes,
00:47:33.640 that tells you all you need to know about how Doug Ford has governed this province since he became premier.
00:47:41.300 Including the fact, yeah, remember Doug in September 2017, you suggested a Rebel News show.
00:47:48.060 I was going to be the host and you were going to come on every week.
00:47:52.440 And then when you finally met me again, because you stopped returning my calls and my texts, uh, you, and that was November of 2017, uh, Doug Ford said to me, face to face, Sheila.
00:48:04.420 If it was up to me, Dave, I would do it this Sunday, but it's the team.
00:48:10.300 You see, the team won't let me, that's what makes Doug Ford different from Rob Ford.
00:48:16.500 But thank goodness, uh, at least once he went off the script.
00:48:21.440 Yeah.
00:48:22.140 You know, I'm, I'm happy that the team is rattled by that very vanilla statement from Doug Ford saying, yeah, calls to genocide on the streets of Ontario.
00:48:33.740 Uh, bad idea.
00:48:35.820 We don't like that.
00:48:36.980 That's like, like, that's how vanilla he was.
00:48:39.180 And yet Doug Ford's unelected team that you can never hold to account, this shadow government in his office, they might be irritated by it.
00:48:49.280 I don't care.
00:48:50.120 I don't care.
00:48:52.020 Let's, uh, let's move ahead to this last thing, because I saw this yesterday and it makes perfect sense, but I was completely appalled and I was kind of disappointed in myself that I hadn't put together, um, what we had seen from the very beginning.
00:49:09.120 This came from Honest Reporting, um, whose job it is by and large to correct the lies about Israel.
00:49:17.360 Um, it seems to me that they do a lot of work on the CBC ombudsman and they get a lot of victories, actually.
00:49:26.080 Oh, yes, they do.
00:49:26.940 Um, they do.
00:49:28.260 Um, if you're not, um, uh, following Honest Reporting, I suggest you do.
00:49:33.380 They send an email out every couple of days just so you can know just how flawed the CBC's reporting on this one issue is.
00:49:40.700 But, uh, AP and Reuters, photojournalists accused of participating in October 7th terror attack.
00:49:47.360 These individuals captured images of a burning Israeli tank and the kidnapping of Israelis, with some even entering Israeli kibbutzim.
00:49:59.300 So those are the, uh, the large-scale collective farms.
00:50:03.020 Questions arise about whether they maintained their journalistic roles or crossed a line in participating in the event they were covering.
00:50:09.900 I saw some images of just how close they were to Israeli women being kidnapped.
00:50:17.040 And they're just standing there taking pictures.
00:50:19.660 I don't know.
00:50:20.440 I'm a journalist.
00:50:21.180 I don't think I could do it.
00:50:22.500 And it sounds like they had advanced knowledge of what was going to happen.
00:50:27.560 And they, it sounds like they knew that there would be kidnapping of Israeli women and children.
00:50:35.820 And, uh, I guess they made the, uh, moral decision that they will have to live with to do nothing except to get images that they could then sell to line their pockets.
00:50:49.580 You know what, Sheila, um, my old journalism professors who have passed on are likely rolling in their graves about this, uh, back when, you know, I think, um, Ezra's mentioned, I'm the only guy in the company that has actually a journalism degree.
00:51:08.420 Don't hold it against me, folks.
00:51:09.640 When I, uh, when I was at a journalism school at Ryerson or whatever the hell they call the place now, uh, cause Ryerson's politically incorrect, uh, that would be the early eighties.
00:51:19.740 Um, it was a far more normal world back then.
00:51:24.040 And there was an entire module, Sheila, on ethics in journalism as well.
00:51:29.060 There should be.
00:51:29.580 And some are obvious.
00:51:30.560 You can't take money from a source because your objectivity is gone.
00:51:35.600 You've been bought and paid for.
00:51:36.900 Oh boy, has that train left the station?
00:51:39.640 Kevin, that black face is basically funding almost every journalist in Canada right now.
00:51:45.120 But this Sheila, this couldn't even be imagined by early eighties standards.
00:51:51.240 The idea of journalists becoming embedded with terrorists, carrying out murder, rape, arson, kidnapping.
00:52:02.200 I mean, it's off the charts.
00:52:05.500 It's unbelievable.
00:52:06.660 And isn't that a journalist getting kissed by one of the Hamas guys, that picture right there?
00:52:10.940 Yeah.
00:52:11.520 So let's roll back up so we can show the full tweet here.
00:52:14.920 Um, this is, in the hours following our expose, a new material is still coming to light concerning Gazan freelance journalist Hassan Azlaia, whom both the Associated Press and CNN used on October 7th.
00:52:29.660 Here he is pictured with Hamas leader and mastermind of the October 7th massacre, Yaha Sinmour.
00:52:36.500 Yeah.
00:52:37.040 You know what?
00:52:37.600 You're not really a freelance journalist.
00:52:39.840 You are a full-time terrorist with Hamas.
00:52:42.400 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:52:43.260 I didn't mean to offend CBC types.
00:52:45.940 You're a full-time militant.
00:52:49.820 Part-time journalist.
00:52:51.460 Okay, let's read the caption there.
00:52:53.020 No, he's a press secretary for Hamas.
00:52:57.620 Here he is.
00:52:58.900 This is him beside a burning Israeli tank, saying everybody who were inside this tank were kidnapped.
00:53:05.240 Everybody who were inside the tank were kidnapped a short while ago by Al Qasem Brigades, as we have seen with our own eyes.
00:53:13.900 Reuters photographers, oh, more photos he took in Kaffar as showed Hamas terrorists trying to breach the kibbutz's fence.
00:53:24.000 Reuters photographers, Mohammed Fak Abu Mustafa and Yasser Qadhi also captured scenes from the Hamas infiltration, including a lynching.
00:53:35.500 Despite graphic content warnings, these images were distributed as part of Reuters' Images of the Day, prompting scrutiny over the decision to feature such violent content.
00:53:46.560 They were buying images from freelance journalists, let's call them press secretaries for Hamas, who were there, I guess, as documentarians on behalf of Hamas.
00:54:04.640 Like, look at this.
00:54:06.000 This isn't, like, I understand seeing images that Hamas live-streamed themselves and then taking stills from that.
00:54:15.960 We saw so much of that because Hamas was taking the phones of their kidnapped victims and then streaming their own kidnappings back out onto Facebook to horrify and terrorize the families.
00:54:28.920 This is different.
00:54:29.960 These are journalists who knew what was going to happen.
00:54:32.960 Journalists, I'm not sure we would call them that.
00:54:34.940 Maybe we do.
00:54:35.640 Maybe we do.
00:54:36.560 I mean, I guess they are.
00:54:40.140 But CNN and AP and Reuters, they didn't have any qualms about collaborating and working with these journalists who had advanced warning, obviously, of these attacks.
00:54:57.060 Because you just don't end up in the right place at the right time.
00:54:59.620 This isn't like kismet.
00:55:01.380 They knew what was going to happen.
00:55:02.720 They knew where they should be.
00:55:04.400 And they didn't do anything about it.
00:55:06.080 They knew that there was going to be a large-scale massacre of Israeli civilians.
00:55:13.900 And they did nothing.
00:55:15.060 And then the fruits of their knowledge, the images they took, they lined their pockets with money by selling it to unethical agencies like CNN, AP, and Reuters.
00:55:27.400 You know what's amazing, Sheila, and in some regards, perversely ironic, is that the Nazis tried to hide their atrocities.
00:55:38.600 I mean, the death camps weren't even located in Germany, for goodness sakes.
00:55:42.760 These cats brag about it.
00:55:45.620 They post it on social media.
00:55:47.420 They go, look at us, look at us, look what we did.
00:55:49.480 You know, and as far as that journalist showing the tank on fire and that all of the occupants are now hostages, I guess that makes them a good guy.
00:55:57.740 At least the IDF soldiers were not incinerated in the tank.
00:56:01.500 I guess is that the message we're supposed to take from that?
00:56:04.300 And I'm sure they're being treated very nicely as hostages in the hands of Hamas and Gaza.
00:56:11.160 It is despicable.
00:56:12.720 It is beyond an ethical breach.
00:56:15.500 And you can't even call these people journalists.
00:56:19.500 They are co-conspirators.
00:56:22.180 They are participants in atrocities.
00:56:25.660 Yeah, I mean, I just, I can't even imagine, you know, that there's going to be a large scale massacre of civilians.
00:56:33.780 And you say, tell me where and when.
00:56:36.220 Yeah.
00:56:36.700 So I can get the images.
00:56:37.880 As I said, I was with Kian yesterday when we sort of found out about this.
00:56:43.020 We were on a special mission in downtown Edmonton where social decay is rampant.
00:56:50.280 And I just, we were sort of looking at our phones as the news broke.
00:56:53.800 And we thought, like, how do you have that knowledge just as a human being and do nothing with it except think this is how my photos end up on CNN?
00:57:06.280 No, I'm not sure if you meant human being or inhumane being, because that's what we're witnessing.
00:57:15.880 And, again, the supporters of these people that we see every weekend in so many cities in the Western world doing their chants, whether it's from the river to the sea, whether it's what they were saying in Sydney a few weeks ago, gas the Jews.
00:57:38.400 I don't think there's any nuance there, folks.
00:57:40.560 I think, you know, that's a pretty definite statement.
00:57:43.340 And, again, this idea that the photographs of hostages, some of whom are children and Holocaust victims, is a trigger point, is a flashpoint.
00:57:54.440 And those posters have to be torn down, especially on university campuses.
00:58:00.400 Sheila, sometimes I've got to pinch myself.
00:58:02.420 Am I in Toronto of 2023 or Berlin 1938?
00:58:08.640 Yeah.
00:58:09.300 You know what?
00:58:10.900 Sorry, my Skype feed is falling apart.
00:58:13.340 But I suppose you get what you'd pay for.
00:58:15.720 But the Nazis did their best to dehumanize the victims of the Holocaust.
00:58:22.980 They made it mechanized, right?
00:58:24.860 These were not human beings.
00:58:26.240 They were just worthy of extermination.
00:58:31.040 What's happening with Hamas is exactly the opposite, actually.
00:58:33.940 They are going after the Israelis specifically because they are human beings and because the Israelis value life, that they knew their actions would be so horrific to everybody else of sound mind looking in on what was happening.
00:58:54.720 It was completely the opposite with the Nazis.
00:58:57.140 They made sure that the Jews were systematically dehumanized for years and years and years.
00:59:03.180 And then it was a mechanized extermination.
00:59:06.600 This is something much different.
00:59:07.820 This is, you know, you're attacking the Jews at their most base level.
00:59:12.160 They're children, their future, their life, right?
00:59:16.900 It's, I don't know.
00:59:18.980 It's just all of it is profoundly evil.
00:59:21.300 That's a fantastic observation, Sheila.
00:59:23.040 And also, if you go back to the Second World War, I don't recall rallies in allied nations breaking out that were pro-Nazi.
00:59:31.060 I don't think a single one of that.
00:59:34.740 Yeah, we didn't have people saying, what about the civilians of Dresden?
00:59:39.760 Yeah.
00:59:40.280 No one was saying that.
00:59:41.260 They're saying the civilians of Dresden, that's the Fuhrer's problem.
00:59:44.700 That's not our problem.
00:59:46.300 Yeah.
00:59:47.140 But now, I guess, this is society in 2023.
00:59:52.940 Olivia, we should hit, do we have time for a quick ad break?
00:59:57.380 Can we go a little extra, because I want to talk about Justin Trudeau staying up to date on his health care.
01:00:08.260 Yes, we can do that.
01:00:15.040 Hey, Ben Shapiro here.
01:00:16.340 This November, the Wilberforce Project is bringing me to Canada.
01:00:19.580 If you want to fight the woke machine destroying families, join me in Calgary for my talk, hosted by the Wilberforce Project.
01:00:24.740 Go to benshapirolive.ca for info and tickets.
01:00:31.200 Do you want to start feeling like your pre-COVID self again?
01:00:34.700 You're not alone.
01:00:35.940 The wellness company's spike support formula is an all-natural supplement to help people do just that.
01:00:43.080 It was created by cardiologist Peter McCullough and his expert team of doctors to help the people experiencing effects from COVID and the you-know-what.
01:00:52.600 Go to TWC.health slash rebel today.
01:01:05.140 Sheila, how come Drea gets to advertise those wellness tablets?
01:01:08.600 What about me?
01:01:09.300 Am I not a well enough-
01:01:11.500 The picture of health.
01:01:14.240 The picture of health.
01:01:17.600 What are you saying?
01:01:18.840 I'm not saying anything, David.
01:01:21.460 You look great for your age.
01:01:23.960 We should go to this story of Justin Trudeau.
01:01:29.860 I know.
01:01:30.560 I know.
01:01:31.140 As soon as I saw it, I was like, little Tamara's all over this.
01:01:34.520 Tamara Ugolini.
01:01:35.700 Little Tamara.
01:01:36.820 Like white on rice.
01:01:38.180 I knew that she would be up one side of this and down the other.
01:01:41.040 Um, let's go to this tweet from Justin Trudeau.
01:01:45.520 Got my COVID-19 booster and flu shot this morning.
01:01:50.320 You should get yours too.
01:01:51.980 To find out why, how, and where you can get your shots, click here.
01:01:55.920 And then, uh, his shirt.
01:01:59.000 What is it?
01:01:59.580 Vaccine.
01:02:00.620 Vaccines cause adults.
01:02:02.520 And then Tamara, I think tweeted, tweeted something like on the back, it says to have, um, vaccine injuries or something or blood clots or something like that on the back.
01:02:12.500 Um, but imagine being someone who has experienced a catastrophic vaccine injury and you are seeing Justin Trudeau wear a shirt like that, that mocks you.
01:02:23.600 Because that feels very mocking to people who are skeptical or who tried to do their civic duty, according to the propaganda that was shoved down their throats for the longest time, or maybe took a vaccine against unemployment or catastrophic loneliness and isolation.
01:02:42.880 And you ended up with a vaccine injury.
01:02:44.840 And here's your prime minister who's had COVID, I don't know, 11 times.
01:02:49.020 Whenever somebody looks at him wrong, he gets COVID and has to go away and play Xbox and sit in his underpants for three weeks.
01:02:56.620 Um, mocking you with this shirt, like you're some kind of idiot.
01:03:00.380 You know what gets me, Sheila, maybe this speaks to how staged this is.
01:03:06.440 Um, how did Blackface find perhaps the only clinic in Canada where he didn't have to wear a face diaper and the person giving him the jab didn't have to wear a face diaper?
01:03:19.020 I understand those rules are still firmly in effect.
01:03:23.020 So, you know, I'm, I'm struggling with the mixed messages here.
01:03:27.740 Can I now go to a clinic and say, well, my prime minister Blackface didn't wear a face diaper, so I don't have to wear it.
01:03:34.660 And you can take yours off too, doc or nurse or what have you.
01:03:38.460 And, uh, you're absolutely right about that, uh, shirt.
01:03:41.760 That's indirectly or maybe even directly mocking those who received vaccine injuries.
01:03:48.380 And, um, the third thing, there was a third thing and it was quite profound and I've already forgotten it.
01:03:55.000 But, uh, oh, yes.
01:03:56.200 That's why you're not doing the wellness ad, David.
01:03:58.500 There you go.
01:03:59.120 Yeah, well, maybe I need the, I need brain boosters.
01:04:02.020 No, I just thought of it.
01:04:02.880 Um, I think the great rebuttal was, um, when he started off his, uh, tweet by saying, uh, uh, went out this morning to get my, uh, vaccine booster.
01:04:15.020 I think the proper rebuttal is, oh, so you're the one because, you know, it's interesting, Sheila, even amongst the vaxxed and double vaxxed and double boosted people.
01:04:25.340 I understand this latest booster is going over like a Led Zeppelin.
01:04:30.740 Uh, there is such little pickup, even by the people that, you know, last year and the year before did get vaccinated.
01:04:40.180 What does that say?
01:04:41.480 Maybe people are waking up a little?
01:04:45.100 Uh, yeah, I think so.
01:04:47.560 I mean, how could you not considering regardless of the number of boosters and vaccines for COVID that you got,
01:04:54.480 but you still got COVID at some point people come to their senses.
01:04:59.600 And I'm seeing this all the time on my own Facebook page where people who are like, just shut up and get vaccinated.
01:05:05.800 And then you see them like reporting how they, uh, had COVID once, twice, three times a lady getting COVID.
01:05:15.180 And then, uh, all of a sudden they're like, yeah, this was just a big scam and we were in lockdown for no reason.
01:05:20.420 And, and so, yeah, of course people, this new vaccine, they don't, they don't care about it because, um, it's just, it's not doing, even for the people who are true believers, it's not doing what the government said it would do.
01:05:33.660 It, it, it, it, it's egregious, Sheila.
01:05:36.940 And, you know, the other day I was just talking, uh, to a friend of Lady Menzoid's, I won't give her name, but she was working for Shoppers Drug Mart and it was a requirement.
01:05:46.720 You had to get double vax and she was absolutely aghast at that, but she is a single mother with bills to pay and somewhat of a debt.
01:05:56.700 So she did it. And within a few months, you know what happened? She got laid off and she has told me she has never been the same and that this is the biggest regret of her life.
01:06:08.320 That even with the financial stipulations, she should have held her ground, gotten fired, find a job somewhere else where this wasn't a, uh, a stipulation.
01:06:17.560 And it's lose, lose for her. I, it just breaks my heart.
01:06:23.440 Yeah. Yeah. And, and even, I mean, she took it to, uh, prevent unemployment and she became unemployed anyway.
01:06:35.040 And she probably got COVID too. And at the very least, she probably got COVID too.
01:06:40.800 Sheila, you are a psychic. As you speak, she is suffering her second bout of COVID.
01:06:47.560 Hand up to God. I'm not making this up. So yeah, really worked, uh, didn't it?
01:06:53.100 But I guess we really can't talk too much about that without making some people triggered.
01:06:59.740 Including YouTube. Um, so let's get to the last few, uh, few of these chats. Um, while my Skype feed continues to fall apart.
01:07:09.820 Um, we've got one from Fraser McBurney. So fight the fines recidivist who just loves his cap locks.
01:07:15.680 I don't know if he's enthusiastic. We're yelling. Um, but, uh, Fraser was one of our, uh, fight the fines clients.
01:07:23.220 And, uh, we're happy to help him, uh, resolve all of his tickets. Um, Fraser McBurney gives us five bucks.
01:07:29.780 Yesterday, when I went to the store, I passed three pot shops selling their poison.
01:07:33.480 The little park had four tents in it. There was a homeless person at the store. Of course I helped.
01:07:37.340 What has Canada come to? Well, Fraser friend, stay tuned because that was part of, uh, our special mission yesterday, uh, why I was in Edmonton.
01:07:48.400 As many regular viewers know, I avoid the city of Edmonton, like the plague.
01:07:52.860 I think we should build a fence around it like district nine and airlift cat food into it.
01:07:56.840 Like they did for those aliens in that movie, uh, evacuate all the good people out, um, to the suburbs.
01:08:02.480 And if you are, if you love Rachel Notley, you just stay put. Um, and the city of Edmonton entirely failed its residents through its, uh, opioid response policy.
01:08:15.100 And, uh, the province had to step in and go over and above the city to deal with it, to bring some semblance of safety back to the public transit system after an ice pick attack by a meth head seemed to be the breaking point for everybody involved.
01:08:31.460 And, uh, so we were out there documenting that and telling the story of how, uh, the city's failures, including what seems to have begun with a defund the police movement to the tune of $11 million being cut from the policing budget led to just, um, attacks and danger in our light rail transit system.
01:08:52.800 But things are getting better. I'm happy to say.
01:08:55.240 I can hardly wait to see a report, uh, Sheila, but to Fraser's point, and, uh, I'm not, I'm not going pro or anti-marijuana personally. I've never had marijuana. I've never even had a cigarette.
01:09:06.700 Me neither.
01:09:07.580 Uh, you know, I, I don't feel the need for it, but I want to say something about, I don't know what it's like in the rest of the provinces in our dominion, Sheila, but I know in Ontario, and this is an issue, this is a problem. And I'm, I am predicting it's going to end badly one day.
01:09:23.140 You have to, if you have a pot shop, you have to have like, you know, hazed glass, or it has to be papered over. And sometimes you will have, for example, one female staff member working there. And if there's say an armed robbery going on or a physical beat down, nobody, no passersby can see that.
01:09:45.940 Now this is ostensibly the reason is we don't want kids to look through the window and see all this weed. Well, I mean, what is weed? It's just like, as the name says, weed, it could be dandelion weeds for that matter.
01:10:00.580 Why is it mandatory for pot shops to have this, you know, cloak on their windows? Whereas the government run liquor control board of Ontario stores, Sheila, bright glass posters, encouraging you to buy more, even though it's all about control and moderation.
01:10:19.700 A child can see a bottle of scotch or a case of beer or a bottle of wine. So why is it different with pot? And I'm telling you, Sheila, I, this is a disaster waiting to happen. I know people in that industry want those rules relaxed, but they're not being listened to.
01:10:39.380 Well, we did relax them in Alberta, um, about a year and a bit ago, 15 months ago, same problem. Uh, they had to have, uh, you, you couldn't be able to see into the store, which seems like a terrible idea.
01:10:56.680 And we had a wave of robberies of these pot stores because yeah, uh, the government was mandating, uh, that, uh, you make it easier to be robbed and to make sure that nobody, um, would ever see you being robbed. So, um, and that was a sort of a notly imposed rule on these cannabis stores. And in Alberta, we have a completely, uh, privatized liquor system. So good for us. Um, and they, they made it,
01:11:26.380 uh, uh, equal with the liquor stores and the beer stores so that, um, they are no longer mandated to have these like hazed or blocked windows, uh, because it was just like nonstop a spate of robberies. And, uh, thankfully the UCP government removed that regulation.
01:11:43.900 Oh, so that was Premier Smith that was responsible for that. It wasn't, uh, before Notley, uh,
01:11:50.680 Oh no, no, no, no. Uh, yeah, I, I'm not quite, I forget. So 2022 would have been Smith. Yeah.
01:11:56.380 Um, another reason to love her. Yeah. Common sense. She's pro public safety. Yeah. Common sense,
01:12:03.440 public safety. Yeah. Um, let's keep going. We've got a one from AMT 65 bucks. I'm in Ontario on a
01:12:11.680 pension in other debt and mortgage renews June, 2024 anxious. If I can renew a mortgage next year,
01:12:18.000 I keep my thermostat at 68, wear sweaters, drive a 17 year old car, our homes in Alberta cheaper. You
01:12:23.400 better believe it. You, you absolutely better believe you can get yourself. I bet you a beautiful
01:12:29.960 McMansion in the suburbs with a large backyard for whatever you're paying for your Ontario mortgage
01:12:34.820 right now. For sure. My heart, Sheila goes out, uh, to AMP to anyone whose mortgages are coming due
01:12:43.100 in 2024. I would even argue 2025. We don't have a crystal ball. It's an eternity away. I just can't
01:12:49.480 see things getting better under the blackface regime. And he's going to rag the puck. I think
01:12:55.240 until October, 2025, unless there's a palace coup again, I can't see the future, but these are horrible
01:13:03.060 times in which there are Canadians losing their houses, um, for no good reason, really. You know,
01:13:10.160 um, we can, the government can take off these carbon taxes. And I, by that, I mean, not just Atlantic
01:13:15.540 Canadians, the government can open up the energy sector. The government can sell liquefied natural
01:13:21.100 gas, two thirds of a trillion of which the Germans and the Japanese want. Yeah. Two thirds of a trillion
01:13:26.400 with a T, but blackface says there's no business case, uh, for that. Uh, and we have almost two more
01:13:32.380 years of this garbage. So I, it breaks my heart to think of anyone losing their home. That, that is the
01:13:38.580 ultimate insult. Yeah. I think the Australians are busy selling their LNG to the Japanese, um,
01:13:46.580 when it could be us. And I know lots of Canadians working in the Australian natural gas sector. Um,
01:13:52.680 at least, you know, a few years ago when there was a substantial downturn here in Alberta, a lot of
01:13:58.620 Canadians went to work there in LNG and so that they could sell LNG to Asia, but that should be us.
01:14:04.380 That should be us. Um, also by the way, maybe Ontario could lift some of their green home
01:14:09.920 restrictions, open up some land for housing development so that you could get some supply
01:14:15.160 on the market to drive those costs down. But also that seems to be a thing that you don't do in
01:14:19.640 Ontario. Well, unfortunately, Dougie tried to pull a little bit of a fast one that way with the green
01:14:24.540 belt. Yeah. Couldn't even be, yeah. Why not be like, why be crooked about it? Like just say to them,
01:14:30.460 yeah, we're opening up land for development. Obviously we need houses. People can't afford to
01:14:34.720 live, but no, he had to be a little bit sneaky about it instead of just being upfront.
01:14:40.420 What comes to mind, Sheila is, uh, one of the greatest analysis in terms of how OJ Simpson literally
01:14:48.460 got away with double homicide. And that was the LAPD framed a guilty man. They don't do that.
01:14:57.080 They don't monkey around with the forensics and the evidence. Uh, OJ's still in jail, but there you
01:15:02.500 go. Uh, we've got another chat from C1 CAS 10 bucks. Well, thanks. Uh, Rachel and her far left
01:15:10.260 Notley crew are so worried about Tucker Carlson that they are NDPing themselves. You know, there are
01:15:15.100 going to be so many good sound bites of him dragging the far left, not just in this province, but in the
01:15:22.420 entire country, if I were the NDP, I would be worried too, because I, I cannot wait to hear
01:15:27.820 Tucker's like giggle and his laugh as he makes fun of the far left in this province for their obsession
01:15:35.500 about having him canceled. Um, this last little bit, he's going to show up to a sold out show
01:15:41.880 and mock every single one of you journalists and NDP politicians for being such absolute cry
01:15:49.760 babies. And I can't wait for it. I'm going to slip into that mockery, like a hot bath on a cold day.
01:15:56.660 I can't wait for it. Um, sorry. I just had that image, a hot bath on a cold day. I'm very easily
01:16:04.320 distracted, Sheila. You know, what kills me about the left is their obsession of Fox news and even
01:16:11.420 X Fox news employees. And I say this on the basis, as you know, myself and our big boss man, Ezra Levent,
01:16:17.880 uh, we are refugees from the sun news network that went under in 2015, uh, a political assassination.
01:16:27.200 The CRTC denied us the license we needed to survive, but before sun news network went on the air folks.
01:16:36.340 So not one program, not one commentary, the left, uh, the likes of, you know, Margaret Atwood,
01:16:44.360 for example, we're starting a petition. And the name of the petition was something along the lines of,
01:16:50.140 um, prevent Fox news North, uh, from getting on the air. And I'm thinking Fox news North,
01:16:58.080 like that's all you got. I consider that a compliment actually, but we hadn't even said anything and they
01:17:04.960 didn't want a dissenting opinion on the air. So I'm not surprised they're losing their marbles over
01:17:10.700 Tucker. Yeah. Yeah. I can. I just, I love it so much. I just can't wait to see how badly he makes
01:17:18.580 fun of all of them or how wonderfully he makes fun of all of them. It's going to be wonderful. And
01:17:24.040 they're so simple to not know that that's exactly what he's going to do. The more they cry, the more
01:17:31.060 he mocks. And I, I just, I can't wait. I can't wait. I feel like I haven't been good enough to
01:17:35.660 deserve how much I'm going to enjoy the mockery of the mainstream media and the NDP by Tucker Carlson
01:17:42.920 when he comes. Okay. Let's keep going. Um, this is from Yankee shares a tweet with us, um, further to
01:17:50.480 something we were previously discussing. It's, um, uh, it says that Israel's internal security agency
01:17:58.100 announced that it will eliminate, I like that word, eliminate all participants of the October
01:18:04.140 7th massacre. The photo journalists who took part in recording the assault will be added to that list.
01:18:11.200 So that's Danny Denon saying that. And Danny is, uh, the Israel's 17th permanent representative to the
01:18:22.460 United Nations and a member of the Israeli parliament, the Knesset and chairman of, uh, the world
01:18:28.500 Likud. So, um, this isn't just some dude saying this on the internet. This is government saying that,
01:18:36.480 yeah, those photo journalists, you, we consider you participants in the homicide of Israeli citizens.
01:18:43.640 And now you're on the list for elimination. I hope, I hope the CNN money was worth it.
01:18:48.440 Yeah. You know, I love the use of quotation marks over the word photo journalist, Sheila,
01:18:54.440 because you're not photo journalists. You're part of the Hamas propaganda department for what
01:18:58.700 you did on that day. Yeah. Pollywood. Yeah. Pollywood. Um, I think, I think that's it. Is that right?
01:19:06.460 Um, okay. Well, I think we're all caught up and we're, uh, 20 minutes over. Sorry, Olivia.
01:19:12.040 Yeah. And in the meantime, I'm going to try to figure out that metaphor. Was that a hot bath
01:19:17.400 on a cold day or cold bath on a hot day? I'll be thinking about that all day, but thinking about
01:19:22.640 it right now, David, stop it. But in the meantime, thank you to everybody that tuned in. Thank you to
01:19:30.240 our team of Olivia and Efren behind the boards. Thank you, especially to all of you who made a
01:19:35.200 financial donation. It's how we keep the lights on. Uh, tomorrow it will be the all Alberta team.
01:19:41.160 Are you part of that, Sheila? Yes, you are. And there'll be another Albertan there. What
01:19:48.320 was that, uh, Olivia? Nope. False alarm. So it'll be Sheila and another, uh, rebel news
01:19:55.720 personality in wild roads country. In the meantime, as always stay safe and stay sane.
01:20:03.440 And I can tell you it is so unfair here in Ontario, across Canada, acts of antisemitism
01:20:10.440 are on the rise. These hate-related incidents, they're another painful reminder of the work left to do
01:20:19.480 to erase antisemitism. That's why yesterday,
01:20:26.120 that's why yesterday, Minister Lecce announced that we're making Holocaust education mandatory in grade 10.
01:20:38.120 Thank you.
01:20:42.120 Thank you.
01:20:42.920 Thank you.
01:20:43.280 Thank you.
01:20:44.120 Thank you.
01:20:54.520 Thank you.
