Summary

Sheila Gunn-Reed weighs in on the Trudeau Liberals policy when it comes to charities, which is to say the charity must be pro-abortion, not pro-life, assuming it wants to maintain its charitable status. And get this, an independent production company makes a parody of a decades-old Radio Canada kids show, but Radio Canada is not amused.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you, in which we look back at
00:00:04.820 some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favorite rebels. I'm your host, David Menzies.
00:00:10.620 Well, Sheila Gunn-Reed will be weighing in on the Trudeau Liberals abortion policy
00:00:15.780 when it comes to charities, which is to say the charity must be pro-abortion, not pro-life,
00:00:22.780 assuming it wants to maintain charitable status. Disgraceful. And get this, an independent
00:00:29.980 production company, makes a parody of a decades-old Radio Canada kids show, but Radio Canada,
00:00:37.980 the French version of CBC, oh, they're not amused. And now Radio Canada is suing this company?
00:00:46.200 Unbelievable. Alex Lavois has all the details. And letters, we get your letters, we get your letters
00:00:52.540 every minute of every day. I'll share some of your responses about our story regarding sneaky Patrick
00:00:59.480 Brown, caught yet again in another scandal. He just can't help himself. Those are your rebels.
00:01:06.960 Now let's round them up.
00:01:18.000 In the last federal campaign, the one that saw Justin Trudeau's Liberals return to Parliament with
00:01:22.840 just a minority government in September 2021, Justin Trudeau campaigned on targeting pro-life
00:01:28.780 organizations, promising to strip them of their charitable status. You see, Justin Trudeau wanted
00:01:33.480 to punish crisis pregnancy centers for, quote, providing dishonest counseling to women about their
00:01:39.200 rights and about the options available to them at all stages of the pregnancy. Now, I would love for
00:01:46.060 the Liberals to tell me what's dishonest about telling a woman it will be hard to raise a child,
00:01:51.220 but also that she's perfectly capable of raising a child and that there will be help if she wants it.
00:01:56.760 What's dishonest about that? I think, and this is just my own opinion, the Liberals' position is
00:02:02.220 infantilizing and demeaning. I mean, it's demeaning to tell a woman that there's only one acceptable
00:02:07.440 option available to them because they're not capable of raising their child. But what do I know?
00:02:12.680 I'm neither a biologist nor a feminist in the modern sense, but you know, I'm a mom. Now,
00:02:18.260 it was reported in December of 2021, Justin Trudeau had then ordered the Minister of Finance,
00:02:23.800 Chrystia Freeland, to submit amendments to the Income Tax Act that would ultimately strip pro-life
00:02:29.940 groups of their charitable tax status. But that was just the public announcement. The crackdown on
00:02:37.040 Christians by Justin Trudeau for the crime of, I don't know, helping women, babies and girls
00:02:41.440 began much sooner. Behind the scenes in secret meetings that now call into question the independence
00:02:47.320 of the Canada Revenue Agency. And whatever you feel about this issue, helping vulnerable women
00:02:53.140 and girls who choose to carry their babies to term, that's actual charity. And the pro-life
00:02:58.640 organizations who help women and girls in their times of need should not be punished because they
00:03:04.060 feel differently than Justin Trudeau about this important issue of conscience. This is the same sort of
00:03:09.860 meddling that could be used against the Democracy Fund to strip it of its charitable status for its
00:03:14.320 work in strategic litigation on COVID civil liberties. Now, we know how quickly the liberals
00:03:21.260 moved to try to strip these largely Christian organizations from doing the real actual charity work that
00:03:27.700 they do, you know, provide aid and services and counseling and diapers and support to vulnerable
00:03:31.640 women and girls in need. We got back a thousand pages through Access to Information now to support
00:03:37.560 our access to information research projects like this one. Please consider making a donation at
00:03:42.700 rebelinvestigates.com. Okay, let's get into these documents. By October 1st, as in 11 days after the
00:03:49.640 election, before the new ministers were even sworn in, no mandate letters were written, calling for
00:03:55.000 legislation, Health Canada was already contacting the CRA to start implementing this program. Look at this.
00:04:01.740 I am responsible for sexual and reproductive health at Health Canada, and we are now turning our
00:04:06.800 attention to implementation plans for new platform commitments. Look at this. No longer provide charity
00:04:13.680 status to anti-abortion organizations. For example, crisis pregnancy centers that provide dishonest
00:04:19.300 counseling to women about their rights and about the options available to them at all stages of the
00:04:25.120 pregnancy. Does that sound familiar? This is a Health Canada bureaucrat from the allegedly nonpartisan
00:04:31.340 ministry reading back the Liberal Party platform word for word, and you can see that it's just been
00:04:36.540 cut and pasted because it's the only thing in bold on the page. Look at this. This is from September 10th,
00:04:43.400 2021, 10 days before the Liberals won the election. They were trying to put their campaign promises
00:04:49.420 into place before they were even given a mandate to do it by Canadians. It's on page 192.
00:04:55.400 There are compliance considerations in terms of our ability to implement and particularly for the
00:05:01.640 anti-abortion item. Considerations at registration. On page 206, by November, finance was putting
00:05:08.920 material together and seeking input from the CRA, though only from people with secret clearance. So
00:05:15.140 secret communications with the tax people to stop Christians from being honest with women and girls
00:05:20.360 about the options before them. They say they are pro-choice, these Liberals, but the Liberals only
00:05:25.700 allow one option to be presented or you face the ire of the CRA. When it comes to the Justin Trudeau
00:05:31.560 Liberals position on abortion, Henry Ford's famous quote regarding the exterior color of the Model T
00:05:38.580 springs to mind. Namely, you can have any color you want as long as it's black. Similarly, the Liberals
00:05:46.000 viewpoint regarding abortion is that you can have any opinion you want about abortion as long as that
00:05:52.780 opinion is pro-abortion. Brutal. And with more on this story is our chief reporter, Sheila Gunn-Reed.
00:06:02.480 How are you doing there, Sheila? I'm great, David. Thanks for having me on the show. Always a pleasure.
00:06:07.160 Sheila, what a story. Equal part sad and infuriating. Whatever happened to the concept of,
00:06:13.400 oh, I don't know, agreeing to disagree. Well, and what that's the thing here. So we've got the
00:06:19.640 Liberals contaminating the independence of the tax agency. I think outside of the police, the one
00:06:26.260 agency within government that could do something catastrophic to destroy your life. But we're seeing
00:06:32.480 the Liberals engage in secret meetings with the tax agency that they completely redact all the records
00:06:40.440 of to go after these largely Christian organizations, these crisis pregnancy centers, because they say the
00:06:48.420 crisis pregnancy centers are being dishonest with women about their options during pregnancy, whether or not to
00:06:56.400 carry the the pregnancy to term or to terminate. But it's the other side of the equation that's being
00:07:03.400 dishonest, because what are the crisis pregnancy centers saying except for, well, should you choose
00:07:09.380 to have this baby? We'll be here to help. And these are the organizations that can help you. And the
00:07:15.820 Liberals don't want women to have that information, because despite the fact that the Liberals won't shut up
00:07:22.540 about what a bunch of feminists they are. The flip side of this coin is that the Liberals don't think
00:07:28.120 that women are capable of carrying an unplanned pregnancy to term and then taking care of that
00:07:35.780 baby alone or with the support of these crisis pregnancy organizations. They actually are demeaning
00:07:42.100 to women by saying, look, you pretty little thing. You only have one option here. You can't do this on
00:07:46.720 your own. Don't worry about it. You know, it's so perverse, isn't it, Sheila? Because we have a prime
00:07:52.480 minister who self-proclaims as being a feminist, even though his actions when it comes to dealing
00:07:59.840 with women, women that challenge him on certain issues. He's not very much of a feminist at all.
00:08:07.260 But to me, there is an undercurrent of mean spiritedness regarding this debate that you are going
00:08:15.980 to be financially kneecapped unless you go along with the party line. What do you think is really
00:08:24.220 driving this agenda, Sheila? Well, I think you're right. It is vindictive. It is malicious. It is
00:08:30.660 mean. And the only problem here is that these groups, these crisis pregnancy centers, which are,
00:08:38.060 again, I reiterate, largely Christian. And I think that's a serious undertone in all of this.
00:08:44.060 Their problem is they disagree with Justin's viewpoint on reproductive rights. And so he has
00:08:53.180 to bring the hammer of the entire government down on them. What could be more charitable than helping
00:09:00.180 women and girls and babies in their time of need? These are organizations that provide housing,
00:09:06.980 supports, sometimes subsidies, diapers, formula to women who choose to carry their baby to term.
00:09:16.700 They basically say to these women, look, if you want to have this baby, you're not alone
00:09:19.540 in this. That's real charity. And Justin Trudeau is making sure the CRA goes after them, not just goes
00:09:26.820 after them with audits, but strips them of their charitable status, while at the same time stopping
00:09:32.860 audits on environmental organizations that meddle in Canadian politics and receive much of their
00:09:39.400 funding from outside of the country. You know, it's just spectacular to me, Sheila, because
00:09:44.260 we know those on the left are totally against the death penalty, even when it's going to be applied to
00:09:51.180 the worst of the worst human beings out there. We just saw our Supreme Court knock down the idea of
00:09:56.240 multiple life sentences, even for serial killers, mass murderers, what have you. But when it comes to
00:10:03.000 basically killing a baby, they're all gung ho for that. This does not compute for me that they will go to
00:10:11.780 bat for the worst examples of humanity, rapists, serial killers, mass murderers, terrorists, who in this
00:10:19.020 country sometimes get an eight figure paycheck from the taxpayer. But for the most innocent life of all,
00:10:25.660 it's open season to terminate that life. Explain that to me, if you can, Sheila.
00:10:33.000 I can't. The pro-choice movement is completely riddled with these inconsistencies. First of all,
00:10:40.420 I don't think you should be given a death sentence because your mom is not prepared to be pregnant with
00:10:45.760 you. I think, you know, being born into a lower socioeconomic caste, as they say, should not be a
00:10:54.140 reason for you not to be born. And that is so often the argument coming from the other side. But the
00:10:59.560 other side also believes in my body, my choice, except when you choose not to get a vaccine, except
00:11:06.940 when you don't want to tell your bartender or your flight attendant what your medical status is. Then
00:11:11.380 that goes completely out the window. These are also the same people who tell me they're feminists.
00:11:18.120 This is all about women's rights, except when you point out to them that sex selective abortion is
00:11:22.820 a real problem in this country. Then they're completely twisted in a knot. And you've seen
00:11:28.980 this firsthand. They don't want to answer that question because it gets them to a place where
00:11:34.900 they are forced to admit that that pregnancy is a future woman or a woman at that time. You know,
00:11:43.600 that's a female child. And they can't admit that because then they have to admit that it's a child
00:11:50.440 at all. You know, Sheila, that's a very good point. And we know that I know there's some studies that
00:11:56.800 indicate that from just the 1970s alone, there's been tens and tens of millions of babies aborted,
00:12:04.380 not for financial reasons, not for health reasons, but because of cultural reasons that a male child
00:12:11.160 is far more valued, unfortunately, than a female child. And this is what really makes a mockery
00:12:20.080 of the feminist movement to me, Sheila, is the fact that if you are aborting babies simply because
00:12:28.480 they're of their sex, i.e. female, that is the very definition of misogyny. How can this be something
00:12:36.140 that feminists cling to? Well, and this is really the end result, what we see unfolding in China.
00:12:42.680 They have basically a generation or two now of completely lost men, and it's causing social
00:12:48.600 problems where you have these men without a spouse, without a family, without a partner, without a reason
00:12:55.060 to be, without someone to take care of. And they're seeing social decay. There are towns where just
00:13:02.020 single men live because they don't belong anywhere else. They don't fit in. But this is the end result
00:13:09.400 of social engineering, communist central control, social engineering. And this is the dictatorship
00:13:18.500 that Justin Trudeau appreciates the most. And instead of learning from what's happening there and saying,
00:13:24.220 you know what, we should not play God. We should not meddle in nature this way. The liberals just
00:13:30.780 embrace it here because they can't figure out where women's rights butt up against, you know,
00:13:40.540 sex selective abortion. They once they get there, they don't know what to do. So instead of doing
00:13:46.160 something, they just turn a complete blind eye to it. Well, Sheila, we're running out of time very
00:13:51.500 quickly. How is this story going to play out? Ultimately, is there going to be a court challenge?
00:13:57.020 I know you're going up against the federal government and the Canadian Revenue Agency.
00:14:03.180 But I mean, even if there is a court challenge, is there any prospect for a successful outcome?
00:14:10.440 Last word goes to you, my friend.
00:14:12.880 So I guess we start even a little bit closer to home on that we're doing our best to appeal those
00:14:19.060 redactions because bureaucrats and politicians should not be contaminating the independence of
00:14:25.240 the CRA to go after their ideological foes, which is exactly what we found the liberals to be doing
00:14:31.800 in these secret meetings with the CRA about punishing Christians for taking care of women
00:14:37.680 and girls. But we know from when the liberals sort of tinkered with the summer jobs grant, again,
00:14:46.940 going after Christians because they would not give pro-life organizations
00:14:51.400 the summer jobs grant based on their ideology, again, because they disagreed with Justin Trudeau
00:14:58.000 largely on this one issue of women's rights and transgender rights. And a lot of Christian
00:15:04.260 camps for underprivileged kids couldn't go forward because of Justin Trudeau and his attacks there.
00:15:10.300 Those are still going through the court system four years later.
00:15:14.460 So right now, I haven't heard of any crisis pregnancy centers that have had their charitable
00:15:23.320 status revoked. I know that there are audits underway. And we're going to keep a keen eye to
00:15:28.240 that because, you know, that's an issue that civil liberties lawyers are very interested in.
00:15:34.820 You know, if you are doing real charity to make the community a better place, to help people in need,
00:15:40.120 you should be allowed to do it if you disagree with the prime minister on this one cudgel point
00:15:48.760 that he has. Indeed. Well, Sheila, let's hope justice prevails. Great report as always. Thank you so
00:15:55.840 much for joining me. Thanks, David. Have a great weekend. You too. And that was Sheila Gunn-Reed,
00:16:01.520 our chief reporter somewhere in the northern hinterland of Alberta. Keep it here, folks.
00:16:06.320 More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.
00:16:10.120 This is Alexa from Rebel News. And let me tell you, you might be shocked by what I'm about to
00:16:19.320 explain. The publicly subsidized broadcasting corporation called Radio Canada, which is
00:16:25.740 basically the French version of the CBC, has decided to sue Lux Media for replicating the show
00:16:33.080 Bobbino and Bobbinet. That show aired on their station from 1957 to 1985. The show, which is a children's program
00:16:44.060 featuring puppets and fictional characters, was very popular. Lux Media wanted to create a tribute to the
00:16:52.700 Aishin flavor of the show by creating Bobbinet and Bobbinet, a parody made for their own Bye Bye 2021.
00:17:01.900 Then, in order to entertain the kids, the studio created six episodes that they published online and that reached
00:17:11.100 about 1,000 listeners. Wow! CBC really doesn't like Lux Media. Just a reminder that the show aired more than 47 years ago. Now, they are facing a lawsuit. To talk more about this situation, I welcome André Pitt, founder of the Lux Media, as well as Yandel, the artist, who is the actor of Babineau in the production.
00:17:40.100 Where come from the idea to do an homage to Babineau and Bobbinet?
00:17:45.100 We come together with this project of Babineau and Bobbypin, like to do something more for the children.
00:17:57.100 Yandel came to me with an idea of doing an end-of-the-year showcase, you know, a comedy showcase. He does that every year. And he has a project involving the folk character of CBC.
00:18:09.100 Named Babineau and Bobbinet. And he built the decor. He built the puppet. And he built all the costume and everything. It took him at least a year. And he wanted to be as close as possible as the real thing for a real homage. And he has also a movie project involving these characters. And I told him, well, maybe it would be a good idea to do shows like they did in the time. Because that's about 35 years that they didn't make that show.
00:18:38.100 It's a show that started in the 50s. So it's a folk kid show. And we did one show and then we did five other ones. And we went to our public and say, if you want more, you need to help us financially because it costs a lot of money to make this.
00:18:57.100 Make the house, make the puppet, make the costume. It costs our time and we have to hire people to help us. So that's why we ask some money to the people.
00:19:12.100 But we didn't make any money because people find it funny and all that. But the interest was not really there. Is it because it was something old?
00:19:24.100 I think it's a very outdated concept. You see, there's another classic kid show named Passe Partout in Quebec. It was very popular in the 70s. And they tried a reboot and it didn't work.
00:19:38.100 So I think that kid shows have evolved. And that's why I think that we didn't have the support of our viewers. So we decided to board the project.
00:19:49.100 And it was very polished what we did. We were very proud of what we did. But, you know, people don't follow. So we just decided to cancel the project.
00:19:59.100 So what really happened? You received first of all a letter from the CBC. And what happened afterwards with the CBC company?
00:20:08.100 Well, when we received the first letter, the project was already aborted because, you know, we came to a conclusion that nobody wants to see that.
00:20:21.100 I mean, I don't think we made one sale. Zero. OK, so, hey, we thought we had a good idea.
00:20:28.100 We have to came to the conclusion that it's not a good idea. So we just decided. So we didn't do much.
00:20:34.100 I mean, probably that CBC will see that we're not making a new episode.
00:20:39.100 And, you know, we did a website, babino.ca, and it cost about 18 bucks. So, you know, not a big deal.
00:20:47.100 So just aborted. And we kind of ignored that because the project was aborted.
00:20:51.100 Then we got a real letter from big, big lawyer cabinet and say, OK, these guys are not are not joking.
00:21:00.100 And I don't know what they want because the project is aborted.
00:21:04.100 We didn't make any money with that. We never intended to make money with that either.
00:21:08.100 And it's everything is off the of the Internet right now.
00:21:11.100 So we don't understand why they would pay a five hundred dollar per hour lawyer to attack two guys that just wanted to entertain kids.
00:21:19.100 How absolutely bizarre. I mean, since when is parody against the law?
00:21:26.100 Heck, even Radio Canada and the CBC.
00:21:29.100 Well, they air shows that are all about parody and satire.
00:21:34.100 So why are they so hyper protective of their old content being mocked?
00:21:42.100 With more on this story, which is equal parts goofy and inexplicable is our Quebec City based reporter, Alexa Lavois.
00:21:51.100 Bonjour, Alexa.
00:21:54.100 Bonjour.
00:21:55.100 You say it so much better than I.
00:21:58.100 Alexa, tell me, what's the deal here?
00:22:00.100 Why does Radio Canada think they should be immune to parody?
00:22:07.100 So so far, what I can understand, they can parody themselves or parody some show, but the they are not like accountable or anything.
00:22:19.100 They can do whatever they want.
00:22:21.100 But when it's going to small production, them, especially they didn't make any money with that.
00:22:29.100 They actually spend money for producing homage or homage.
00:22:33.100 At the beginning, it was an homage for their bye bye show.
00:22:36.100 And and at the end, like when they started, nobody wanted to continue on this way because nobody didn't make a donation for continuing that show.
00:22:49.100 And I especially they wanted to integrate some diversity because they changed the puppet for black puppet for Asian like flavor.
00:22:59.100 And I thought it was a kind of a little bit too much overreact for deciding to sue them for just a show that air 47 years ago on CBC.
00:23:13.100 But the French CBC, that is Radio Canada.
00:23:16.100 You know, and I would argue, Alexa, even if this production company hit a home run in terms of financing, if they had made 10 million, 100 million from their show, well, good for them.
00:23:29.100 I would still say that Radio Canada has no right to go after them or after that money.
00:23:36.100 And speaking of money, let's not forget that Radio Canada, the French arm of CBC, they are wholly supported.
00:23:45.100 Well, almost fully supported by taxpayer dollars.
00:23:50.100 So I find it a little rich that they're going after somebody doing a satire on one of their decades old programs when they didn't even front most of the money to make the original programming in the first place.
00:24:04.100 Mm hmm. And and it's this is the most hilarious thing is like this this small production that's called Lux Media.
00:24:12.100 It's funding by crowdfunding by the people who watch their show and watch what they are doing.
00:24:20.100 And when we look at CBC and Radio Canada, they are funding by taxpayers.
00:24:26.100 So they use the taxpayer money to go after the small production that doesn't make sense at all.
00:24:32.100 I'm not sure if we ask the taxpayer people if they are really agreed to have their money used to go after a small production that actually doesn't have much money and crowdfund by the people who love them and wants them to survive for their production.
00:24:51.100 And Alexa, what I don't understand either is, as I said in the preamble, that there are CBC and Radio Canada shows that, you know, they run satirized programs.
00:25:04.100 You know, they they they they run parody themselves.
00:25:07.100 They they take no prisoners.
00:25:09.100 Why do they think they're entitled to a double standard?
00:25:12.100 Why do they think that this children's programming from decades ago is almost like sacred?
00:25:21.100 It's almost as though, goodness gracious, somebody drew a Mohammed cartoon.
00:25:27.100 We got to go after them.
00:25:29.100 Why do they believe this to be the to be what it is?
00:25:33.100 But first of all, like a lot of people, I took that show, but we know a Bobbinette and they put it back online on YouTube without using CBC logo or anything.
00:25:46.100 It's like actually this is a stolen from CBC, but they never went after them.
00:25:53.100 I don't think so, because it's still on the Internet that I never heard about the trial suing anything about that.
00:26:01.100 But I think because LuxMedia is a prediction that is against the narrative of the government since the beginning of the pandemic.
00:26:09.100 And because they are talking wrongly about what is going on with the government and everything.
00:26:14.100 So I'm just wondering, like, is it a bandita against them to say, like, they don't have the money to pay us.
00:26:21.100 We will claim the money from our lawyer, a couple of thousand dollars, maybe twenty five thousand dollars.
00:26:27.100 I don't know the money exact, but that will actually will destroy that prediction.
00:26:34.100 They will probably have, like it says, every equipment that they have because they don't have any penny for paying this.
00:26:41.100 So I don't know what was their goal.
00:26:44.100 Is it like to destroy small prediction that are not in the same narrative or going in the opposite light narrative of them?
00:26:54.100 But I think it's a it look like more like a bandita.
00:26:57.100 But since I released my my report and a lot of people saw it, thousands and thousands of people saw my report.
00:27:06.100 So then they call back the production looks media and say, you know what?
00:27:11.100 Remove what you still have online and we forget about the the suing.
00:27:16.100 Wow. But, you know, Alexa, I think you are on to something here.
00:27:20.100 It is the fact that this production company has ideology that is not CBC approved.
00:27:27.100 And I go back to twenty nineteen.
00:27:30.100 Do you remember the Conservative Party ran an ad where they clipped a CBC debate?
00:27:37.100 You know, with all the candidates and the CBC launched a lawsuit against the Conservative Party of Canada,
00:27:45.100 even though Elections Canada told the CBC that the use of broadcast news material in an ad is not a violation of copyright.
00:27:57.100 CBC didn't care. They use taxpayer dollars to get a big legal firm to go after the Conservative Party.
00:28:05.100 They lost in court. I'm not sure if they're going to appeal.
00:28:09.100 It wouldn't surprise me. But here what I'm getting at, Alexa, if that was the Liberal Party using that clip from the debate,
00:28:17.100 do you think the CBC is launching a lawsuit against the Liberal Party of Canada?
00:28:22.100 This is grotesque. This is making decisions using taxpayer dollars because that's who's paying all these lawyer fees, Alexa,
00:28:31.100 based on ideology and not based on so-called copyright violations.
00:28:37.100 They just want to mute everybody that go in the other direction of their narrative to make sure that nobody are intervening in what they are saying,
00:28:48.100 that people are questioning what they are saying as well.
00:28:51.100 And that's remember again. Oh, yes, Trudeau. But it's actually the same thing.
00:28:57.100 Like we try to mute and to shut down all the small production that doesn't say the same thing as you.
00:29:05.100 I'm just wondering if that small production was going in the same direction that them,
00:29:11.100 if they will have had this trial, like this lawsuit action against the small company who go in the same direction on the narrative.
00:29:23.100 That would be like something to look at it.
00:29:26.100 Yeah, it's unbelievable. They have a narrative. They have an ideology.
00:29:31.100 They have no tolerance for anyone poking fun at that ideology or mocking it.
00:29:37.100 And meanwhile, all their bluster is funded by you and I and our audience as taxpayers.
00:29:44.100 It is just outrageous. You know, we've got to wrap it here, Alexa.
00:29:48.100 I think I'd love to challenge the CBC to see if they would come after Rebel News.
00:29:53.100 Why don't we parody their newscast? Gee, who would we get to play Rosemary Barton?
00:30:00.100 I don't think we have anyone big enough here, but maybe we'd have to outsource that.
00:30:08.100 So maybe you can find two people in the same time.
00:30:11.100 Anyways, Alexa, it was a great piece.
00:30:16.100 I'm glad that they're going to back down somewhat.
00:30:20.100 They still have to remove the content, which I think is outrageous, but wonderful report.
00:30:26.100 If anything changes, I know you'll keep us up to date.
00:30:29.100 Thank you so much and have a great weekend, my friend.
00:30:32.100 Yeah. And just want to let your viewer know that I'm not paralyzed.
00:30:36.100 I'm just came back from the dentist.
00:30:39.100 Well, you have a fantastic dentist. Look at that million dollar smile.
00:30:45.100 That is just absolutely beautiful, Alexa.
00:30:48.100 So I'll let you recuperate in the days ahead and we'll chat later.
00:30:53.100 Bye bye.
00:30:54.100 Take care, Alexa.
00:30:56.100 And that was Alexa Lavois in Quebec City.
00:30:59.100 Keep it here, folks.
00:31:00.100 More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.
00:31:06.100 David Menzies for Rebel News here in Vaughn, Ontario.
00:31:10.100 Now, folks, we are trying to track down the secret campaign headquarters of sneaky Patrick Brown, the mayor of Brampton.
00:31:21.100 And you know what? We found it in this nondescript office building, unit number 20 on City View Boulevard.
00:31:28.100 There is Patrick Brown's campaign office in full flight.
00:31:33.100 And I guess there's really nothing wrong with that, although it's kind of funny that he's based in Brampton, but he's running his boiler room out of Vaughn.
00:31:41.100 But here's the thing, folks.
00:31:44.100 There are several senior City of Brampton officials that are working on this campaign, and we know this for sure.
00:31:53.100 Just in front of me, about 55 meters ahead of me, is the white Audi SUV that belongs to Babu Nagulingham.
00:32:04.100 He is the chief of staff for the mayor.
00:32:07.100 I have been coming here for the last several weeks, and I've been documenting the fact that that SUV that is owned by Babu is parked here.
00:32:16.100 Also, another interesting character, Margaret Beveridge.
00:32:21.100 She's the senior director of operations, the mayor's office.
00:32:25.100 She is also showing up here in her white fiat.
00:32:28.100 There are several other city employees.
00:32:30.100 They've been on planes crisscrossing Canada with Mayor Patrick Brown as he tries to succeed in being the new leader of the Conservative Party of Canada.
00:32:40.100 We were told these staffers were working on the Brown campaign while still fully employed by the City of Brampton.
00:32:51.100 And if this is the case, that's offside.
00:32:55.100 Indeed, according to Section 4 and Section 5 of the Brampton Council Code of Conduct,
00:33:02.100 No member shall use for personal purposes any City property, equipment, services, supplies, or services of consequence,
00:33:13.100 other than for purposes connected with the discharge of City duties, which may include activities within the member's office of which City Council has been advised."
00:33:26.100 And here's another nugget,
00:33:29.100 No member shall use the facilities, equipment, supplies, services, or other resources of the City for any election campaign or campaign-related activities.
00:33:41.100 No member shall use the services of persons for campaign-related activities during hours in which those persons receive any compensation from the City.
00:33:55.100 Now, can you believe it, folks?
00:33:58.100 It just so happens when we came here today, guess who showed up himself?
00:34:02.100 Yeah, the big enchilada, Patrick Brown.
00:34:05.100 As soon as he saw us, oh, well, the sneaky one, he jumped into his chauffeur-driven black Ford Explorer SUV,
00:34:14.100 and he literally hit the road.
00:34:16.100 Check out the footage.
00:34:18.100 Go, go, go, go.
00:34:20.100 Sheesh.
00:34:21.100 Nice.
00:34:22.100 Nice.
00:34:23.100 Nice.
00:34:30.100 You ready?
00:34:31.100 We unlocked.
00:34:32.100 Yeah.
00:34:33.100 Here's the mic.
00:34:35.100 I'm rolling.
00:34:36.100 Why, why?
00:34:37.100 You know what?
00:34:38.100 Well, there's no other way out.
00:34:40.100 We'll go back this way.
00:34:41.100 Oh.
00:34:42.100 You saw him, eh?
00:34:43.100 You saw his...
00:34:44.100 Oh, go hit him.
00:34:45.100 Shepard.
00:34:46.100 Just do a stretch.
00:34:47.100 You hit him that way, girl.
00:34:48.100 He's like a cornered weasel.
00:34:49.100 He doesn't know what to do.
00:34:50.100 This is our second foray down the southbound lanes of the Highway 400.
00:35:03.100 Uh, he exited at Rutherford.
00:35:07.100 He's like a cornered weasel.
00:35:09.100 He doesn't know what to do.
00:35:10.100 This is our second foray down the southbound lanes of the Highway 400.
00:35:17.100 Uh, he exited at Rutherford and went back up north.
00:35:22.100 Got off at Teston.
00:35:23.100 Went to his secret party headquarters.
00:35:25.100 We drove by it.
00:35:27.100 And now he's going south on the 400 again.
00:35:31.100 I'm pretty sure he knows we're following him right now.
00:35:37.100 There's no way to sugarcoat Patrick Brown's character.
00:35:40.100 He is a compulsive liar.
00:35:43.100 Indeed, back when he was the leader of the Ontario PC party,
00:35:48.100 he threw social conservatives under the bus
00:35:50.100 when he campaigned against the Liberals' sex ed curriculum,
00:35:55.100 only to later flip-flop and support that very same sex ed curriculum.
00:36:00.100 And I have no intention of scrapping the sex education curriculum.
00:36:04.100 He then shockingly threw fiscal conservatives under the bus
00:36:08.100 by deciding it would somehow be a good idea for Ontario,
00:36:12.100 a manufacturing province, to have its very own carbon tax.
00:36:16.100 This is it.
00:36:18.100 Oh my God, he's going back?
00:36:20.100 Yeah, I guess so.
00:36:21.100 Okay, are we ready?
00:36:23.100 I think we are.
00:36:25.100 And when there were no more conservatives to throw under the bus,
00:36:30.100 well, guess what?
00:36:31.100 The PC party threw Patrick Brown under the bus back in January 2018.
00:36:36.100 Such was the contempt and distaste for this backstabber
00:36:41.100 that he was forced to walk the plank less than six months
00:36:45.100 before the provincial election.
00:36:47.100 It's not my values.
00:36:48.100 It's not how I raised.
00:36:50.100 It's not who I am.
00:36:54.100 Brown would later become mayor of Brampton,
00:36:56.100 even though he has no connections to the city whatsoever.
00:37:00.100 Zero point zero.
00:37:05.100 Yet Patrick Brown is all about acquiring power
00:37:08.100 for the sake of acquiring power.
00:37:11.100 And he certainly does not lead by example.
00:37:15.100 Brampton was perhaps the most locked down city in all of Canada
00:37:20.100 during the COVID-19 mandates.
00:37:22.100 Brown even hired security guards to rat out people
00:37:26.100 to Brampton by law enforcement for the egregious crime of,
00:37:30.100 oh, making use of fenced off baseball diamonds or soccer fields.
00:37:36.100 And all the while this hypocrite was secretly playing hockey
00:37:41.100 with his Barry buddies at a Brampton rink.
00:37:44.100 Well, folks, we're getting the bums rush,
00:37:47.100 but holy mackerel, I think I see Patrick Brown himself.
00:37:52.100 Oh, hey, how you doing?
00:37:54.100 Good.
00:37:55.100 Mr. Brown, right?
00:37:56.100 Yeah.
00:37:57.100 David Menzies with Rebel News.
00:37:59.100 You're in a city facility?
00:38:00.100 What's that?
00:38:01.100 You're in a city facility?
00:38:02.100 Yeah, so are you.
00:38:03.100 Yeah.
00:38:04.100 So are you playing hockey here?
00:38:06.100 No, I'm just coming to check in our facility.
00:38:08.100 So I'm going to, we're going to check you.
00:38:10.100 You're not supposed to be here, actually.
00:38:12.100 We were told that you play pickup here.
00:38:17.100 Mr. Brown, how come the kids in Brampton can only practice sports,
00:38:21.100 but your buddies can play hockey?
00:38:23.100 Yeah.
00:38:24.100 So, I don't know why you are harassing people in the city of Brampton,
00:38:30.100 but you shouldn't be.
00:38:31.100 Oh, who's harassing whom?
00:38:33.100 Your guy handed out 122 bylaw violations in one week.
00:38:40.100 Mr. Brown, why is there a hockey game going on in this arena?
00:38:48.100 I thought you're only allowed to practice sports, not play them.
00:38:53.100 And who is paying the $1,000 a day, Mr. Brown, for this rink?
00:38:59.100 Mr. Brown, are these taxpayer dollars being used for your buddies
00:39:05.100 to play hockey on this rink?
00:39:07.100 Or are you paying it?
00:39:11.100 Or perhaps Waleed Solomon?
00:39:14.100 So, Mr. Brown, why is it one law for me and one law for thee in this city?
00:39:21.100 Clearly, one law for thee, one law for me.
00:39:25.100 Naturally, he now claims he was the, quote,
00:39:29.100 anti-lockdown mayor, end quote, during the pandemic,
00:39:32.100 even though the evidence clearly shows otherwise.
00:39:36.100 The freedoms of families and businesses and the mental health of Canadians.
00:39:40.100 I was one of the only big city mayors to speak out and demand an end to restrictions.
00:39:44.100 He is, was, and always has been a compulsive liar.
00:39:47.100 Lincoln Jay for Rebel News.
00:39:49.100 We've seen you shut down Brampton Public...
00:39:51.100 And when my colleague Lincoln Jay got to ask him a question
00:39:55.100 at the last Conservative leadership debate and that aforementioned hockey scandal,
00:40:01.100 what did Patrick Brown do?
00:40:03.100 ...with your friends, and you lied about that too.
00:40:05.100 What do you say to voters that don't believe you because of your past actions?
00:40:11.100 Well, I certainly don't agree with Rebel Media and was very clear that I was one of the few big city mayors
00:40:18.100 that pushed back against the closures of recreation.
00:40:21.100 And I'm sure you know that complaint from Rebel was found to be factually incorrect.
00:40:27.100 And I'm proud of my record during COVID-19 to have been one of the few big city mayors in the country
00:40:33.100 who didn't have vaccine mandates and pushed to make sure that recreation was open,
00:40:39.100 to stay active, to stay fit.
00:40:42.100 And now comes his latest scandal.
00:40:45.100 Brown is using City of Brampton employees to sell CPC memberships.
00:40:51.100 Some of those senior employees actually flew across Canada with Brown,
00:40:55.100 travelling as far away as Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver,
00:40:59.100 when they should have been working for the citizens of Brampton, Ontario.
00:41:07.100 Patrick Brown drove straight to the Brampton police headquarters.
00:41:11.100 Mr. Brown, why are senior City of Brampton staff working out of your secret campaign headquarters in Vaughan?
00:41:33.100 Mr. Brown, is that on the taxpayer dollar? Have they taken a leave of absence?
00:41:39.100 Mr. Brown, why are City of Brampton employees working at your campaign headquarters in Vaughan?
00:41:48.100 Is this on the taxpayer dollar? Mr. Brown?
00:41:52.100 Mr. Brown?
00:41:54.100 They closed, closed office.
00:41:55.100 Mr. Brown, oh, okay then. All right then. Okay.
00:41:59.100 I just jumped out of your car so fast. I'm trying to conduct a traffic stop on you.
00:42:02.100 Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, why is that, sir? Let's go back outside. Okay, sure.
00:42:06.100 So, another day in the life of sneaky Patrick Brown and yet another scandal unfolds.
00:42:13.100 Unbelievable.
00:42:14.100 Is this the guy you want as the leader of the Conservative Party, folks?
00:42:19.100 Is this the guy you want as Prime Minister come 2025?
00:42:25.100 No, thanks. We already have a lying liberal scoundrel as PM.
00:42:31.100 No need to replace Justin Trudeau with, well, more of the same.
00:42:36.100 In any event, you had lots to say about the sneaky one's latest shenanigans.
00:42:42.100 Mama writes, you know you're a good journalist when you're accused of criminal harassment.
00:42:49.100 Great job.
00:42:50.100 Well, thanks, Mama.
00:42:51.100 And what Mama is referring to, folks, is that that so-called traffic stop that we encountered
00:42:58.100 turned into an investigation pertaining to criminal harassment, I swear.
00:43:03.100 By the way, after the cops did look into it, they dropped the investigation.
00:43:08.100 No criminal harassment here.
00:43:10.100 Golly, I wonder what sneaky Patrick told the cops as he was whipping down the highway.
00:43:17.100 What a lying liar.
00:43:19.100 Pilot Barbie writes, God help us if he pushes his way to the leadership of the Conservative Party.
00:43:26.100 He's a disgrace and will never beat the Ponce.
00:43:30.100 And what's worse, Pilot Barbie, sneaky Patrick could very well damage the Conservative Party beyond repair.
00:43:38.100 Brown is a liar and he is a buffoon, but he's also dangerous.
00:43:43.100 Razier writes, you know, you're doing something right when a politician has to report a journalist to the police for asking uncomfortable questions.
00:43:53.100 Yeah, and the cops did something right too, Razier, by aborting their investigation regarding those ludicrous criminal harassment ideas.
00:44:02.100 They knew full well that such a case was going to be a no-hoper.
00:44:08.100 Rob Probst writes, charge the mayor for harassment.
00:44:12.100 It's illegal to call the cops when there's no crime.
00:44:15.100 At least sue the bastard.
00:44:17.100 Well, Rob, I don't know about suing, but I would love to see the transcript regarding the call Patrick Brown made to the cops.
00:44:26.100 No idea what he said, but you can bet the house on one thing.
00:44:31.100 He lied through his teeth yet again because, hey, that's what this weasel does.
00:44:37.100 And DJ Color Zone writes, I love that you give all, NDP, Liberals, and Conservatives, the same scrutiny.
00:44:46.100 You are true journalists.
00:44:48.100 God bless Rebel.
00:44:49.100 Well, thank you, DJ.
00:44:50.100 We liken ourselves to the umpire behind home plate.
00:44:54.100 We calls them as we sees them.
00:44:56.100 And it doesn't matter to us what team is up to bat.
00:45:00.100 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup.
00:45:03.100 Thanks so much for joining us.
00:45:05.100 See you next week.
00:45:06.100 And hey, folks, never forget.
00:45:07.100 Without risk, there can be no glory.
00:45:09.100 Good night.
00:45:30.100 Bye.
00:45:31.100 Bye.
00:45:32.100 Bye.
